Objective:To evaluate the analgesic effect of botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) in osteoarthritis model and the changes of Nav1.8 protein expression in spinal ganglia changes.Method:Animal model of knee osteoarthritis (KOA) was established by intra-articular injection of 4％ papain solution 0.3ml into SD rat right knee.After the formation of arthritis,they were randomly divided into two groups at the 2nd day:BTX-A group (n=10):intra-articular injection of 5μl BTX-A 0.1IU;WFI group (n=10):intra-articular injection of 5μl water.No papain or BXT-A was given to the sham group (n=10).At the 1st,3rd,5th day after injection,we tested the pain behavior,thermal pain threshold,and sodium channel 1.8 (Nav1.8) protein expression in spinal ganglion by using immunohistochemistry.Result:Analysis of spontaneous pain behavior showed abnormal gait caused by rat osteoarthritis.Comparing with the WFI group,abnormal gait caused by osteoarthritis improved significantly in BTX-A group.At day 5 it improved more significantly than day 1 and day 3.Thermal pain threshold of BTX-A group increased more than that of WFI group (P＜0.05) at any time point.Abnormal high Nav1.8 protein in model rats decreased in spinal ganglia for BTX-A group.Conclusion:The intra-articular injection of BTX-A may play the analgesic effect in the model of KOA by down-regulating of the expression of Nav1.8 protein in spinal ganglia and reduction in the central sensitization to pain stimulation.

Objective To know the blood lead level of children aged 3-14 years in some areas of Guangdong province. Methods Stratified-clustered-random sampling and simple random sampling were used. 1905 children aged 3-14 years were chosen from Guangzhou,Shenzhen,Shaoguan,Zhaoqing and Lianping and the blood lead level was tested by ICP-MS. Results The mean lead level of children aged 3-14 years was 69.55 ?g/L. The rate of exceed standard limit of blood lead was 16.4% (≥100 ?g/L). The differences of the blood lead level and the rate of lead poisoning of children among different areas were significant. The blood lead level and the rate of lead poisoning of children in Shaoguan were highest in the investigated areas. The blood lead level and the rate of lead poisoning of children aged 3 years were higher than those in the other age groups. The blood lead level of boys was higher than that of girls. Conclusion The blood lead level and the rate of children lead poisoning in the underdeveloped cities and rural areas are higher.

Complete video-assisted thoracic surgery (cVATS) for lung cancer has the advantages of significantly minimal trauma, markedly light postoperative pain and rapid post-operative recovery, which has been increasingly applied in clinic.Its main operation methods consist of lobectomy, segmentectomy, pneumonectomy and sleeve lobectomy.cVATS for lung cancer can achieve the same radical tumor resection and lymph node dissection as the open thoracotomy, which contributes to a satisfactory long-term outcome.

Objective:To examine the utilization and cost of outpatient care and their influencing fac-tors among middle and aged peasant-workers in China. Methods:The data of China Health and Retire-ment Longitudinal Study ( CHARLS) collected in 2011-2012 were used and the data on peasant-workers aged 45 years and older were analyzed with Two-part Model. Results: The four-week outpatient rate of middle and aged peasant-workers was 13. 7% (407/2 974). The determinants of the rate included gen-der, marital status, economic level, household size, the place of insurance enrollment, self-assessed health and having or having no chronic diseases. The average outpatient cost was (400. 3 ± 56. 7) yuan (RMB) and the median was 138. 0 yuan. Multivariate analyses showed that outpatient costs were higher for those males who lived in Eastern China and worked at the same place with insurance enrollment, with fair to bad self-assessed health and chronic diseases. Conclusion:Allowing higher flexibility for migrants to transfer the new rural cooperative medical system ( NCMS ) between rural and urban areas and thus making reimbursement for medical services provided by undesignated providers received immediately could increase the use of outpatient services.

Objective The purpose of the study was to explore influence of family factors on dietary behavior of primary and secondary studen t s in Guangzhou city, in order to provide suggestions for intervention of dietary behavi or. Methods The study population included 1 539 student-parent s pairs selected from Guangzhou city by using the method of stratified multistage cluster random sampling, and data were collected through questionnaires. Results The ratio of parents who often reminded and forced the ir children to eat some fo od they thought of as nutrition were 56.0% and 7.7%, and 39.7%, 29.2% of ch ildren complied with their parents, respectively. At dinner, 14.8% and 27.5% of parents often and sometimes criticized their children, and the ratio of childre n couldn't eat anything and only eat a little food were 5.9%,19.3%, respectively . Forty-two point three of primary and secondary school students watched televi sion wh en they had a dinner, which made 39.4% of students not eat seriously. C onclusions Dietary behavior of primary and secondary school students is influenced strongly by their parents and family environment, it is necessary for parents and themselves to grasp enough nutritional knowledge.

Objective To study the reconstructive treatment of the different types of neurofibroma and neurofibromatosis in different locations. Methods 37 patients with neurobibroma or neurofibromatosis were reviewed, including 8 cases with simple suture after excision, 9 cases with skin grafting in situ, 12 cases with skin flap grafting. The main points of the treating methods for different types of neurofibroma and neurofibromatosis were discussed, and the chief clinical manifestations, therapeutic principle and notices of the operation were then summarized.Results These 37 patients, including 25 cases of neurofibroma, 11 cases of neurofibromatosis typeⅠ and 1 case of neurofibromatosis type Ⅱ, were satisfied with the results after reconstructive operation. Conclusion The methods of reconstructive operation of neurofibroma and neurofibromatosis, such as simple suture after excision, skin grafting in situ, skin flap grafting, the use of skin soft tissue expansion, microskin grafting and so on, must be selected according to the different type and location of the neurofibroma and neurofibromatosis. The reconstructive operation must guarantee the best recovery of the visage and the function on the basis of the most degree of tumor excision.

Objective:To observe the levels of serum endothelin(ET),nitric oxide(NO),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and interleukin-6(IL-6)in prehypertension and hypertension patients.Methods:Three groups were recruited from 3050 subjects of regular health checkup in Tangshan Railway Hospital from June to September,2007. Prehypertension (PH) group: n=106,Essential hypertension (EH) group: n=91,and Normotensive (NT) control group: n=98.The levels of ET,TNF-α,IL-6 and NO were compared by radioimmunoassay and biochemical tests. Results: ①Compared with NT group,body mass index (BMI) and serum lipids (TC,TG,LDL-C) were significantly increased in PH and EH groups (P<0.05),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)was decreased in EH groups (1.59±0.15 vs. 1.77±0.19,P<0.05). ②Compared with NT group,ET,IL-6,TNF-α were increased in PH and EH groups (P<0.05).NO was increased in PH group (6.55±0.94 vs. 5.87±0.80,P<0.05) while decreased in EH group (5.28±0.81 vs. 5.87±0.80,P<0.05). ③Logistic analysis indicated that BMI,ET,NO,TNF-α and IL-6 were related to the hypertension. Conclusion: ET,NO,TNF-α,IL-6 were elevated in prehypertension patients and those might be used to predict the risk of hypertension.

Objective To study the pre-existing intimal hyperplasia and the expression of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) in great saphenous vein(GSV) among the patients with diabetes mellitus undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG).Methods Segments of GSV were collected from 20 patients with diabetes mellitus and 22 patients without diabetes mellitus undergoing CABG.Morphometric analysis was performed after hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and Masson staining by microscopic computer analysis.Immunohistochemistry staining was used to examine the expression of NF-κB and VCAM-1 in intima.Results Pre-existing intimal hyperplasia was more common and server in GSV of the patients with diabetes mellitus.The expression of NF-κB and VCAM-1 were significantly higher in intima of GSV in patients with diabetes mellitus than patients without diabetes mellitus.The expression of VCAM-1 was positively related to NFκB in intima of GSV.Conclusion The pre-existing intimal hyperplasia and the expression of NF-κB and VCAM-1 were more common and server in GSV of the patients with diabetes mellitus than patients without diabetes mellitus.This can partially explain the poor prognosis of patients with diabetes mellitus after CABG.
