[Objective]To discuss the relation-ship between AAONFH(advanced alcoholic osteonecrosis of femoral head)and extended overdose drinking.[Method]Reviewed 165 cases of total hip arthroplasty,to analyzed the clinical data among 27 AAONFH cases,reviewed the literatures,discussed the pathogenesis of AAONFH and the relation-ship between blood biochemistry and blood cloting funtion and compared the experimental results among literatures.[Result]Theres various factors resulted in osteonecrosis of the femoral head associated with alcohol long-term over intake.Individuals consuming more than 750 ml of alcohol daily were at greater risk of double or half ONFH,Theres no change in biochemical test,but blood clotting funtion in this case would degrade,osteoarthritis of hip would synchronize.[Conclusion]Individuals consuming more than 750 ml of alcohol daily have the potentiality of ONFH;Its no specificity significance in biochemical test,the necrosis extent of the femoral head is relative to the capacity and times of alcohol intake.THR(total hip replacement)is the best treatment for AAONFH,but theres more staxis potentiality in this cases.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of lymphatic mapping and sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) biopsy in the diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer. Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out based on the data of 46 patients who had received D2 gastrectomy from January 2003 to June 2006. The SLNs stained by methylene blue were resected for biopsy. Results The success rate of SLNs biopsy was 83% (38/46). The sensitivity, false-negative rate, accuracy, specificity, negative predictive value and positive predic-tive value of SLNs were 69% (18/26), 31% (8/26), 79% (30/38), 100% (12/12), 60% (12/20) and 100% (12/12). The sensitivity, accuracy and negative predictive value were 100% in patients with tumor in pT1 stage or TNM I stage, or with the diameters of the tumors under 4 era. The tumor site, and the degree of lymph node metastasis affected the success rate of biopsy, and the invasion depth, clinical stage and the degree of lymph node metastasis affected the sensitivity, accuracy and negative predictive value of biopsy. Conclusions The application of sentinel lymph node biopsy using methylene blue in gastrie cancer is feasible. The sensitivity, accuracy and reliability are high in patients at early stage of gastric cancer.

Objective To observe the effects of exercise on serum adiponectin and adiponectin receptor (AdipoR) level in skeletal muscle of insulin-resistant rats. Methods A total of 30 healthy male rats were randomly divided into a control group ( NC, n = 8) and a high-fat group ( HF, n = 22), fed with normal chow and high fat diet, respectively. Eighteen weeks later, the high-fat group was randomly divided into a high-fat diet control group (HC, n = 10) and an exercise group (HE, n = 12). The HC and HE group were continually fed with high fat diet, while the HE group was administered with swimming training for 6 weeks in addition at the same time. After 24 weeks, the insulin sensitivity index was calculated, and serum adiponectin level was detected by using ELISA. The expressions of AdipoR mRNA in skeletal muscle were detected with real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Results After 18 weeks, compared to NC group, the insulin sensitivity index of HF group decreased significantly. It suggested that insulin resistance appeared in HF group. Twenty-four weeks later, compared to NC group, the ISI of HC group was significantly decreased, meanwhile the level of serum adiponectin, expression of AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 mRNA in skeletal muscle of HC group were 71.9% , 59.9% and 69.2% of those of the NC group, respectively; compared to HC group, the ISI was increased significantly by exercise, meanwhile the expression of AdipoR1 mRNA in skeletal muscle was significantly increased by 1.33 times, however the level of serum adiponectin and the expression of AdipoR2 mRNA in skeletal muscle were not altered in HE group. Conclusion Six weeks of exercise improves insulin sensitivity through increasing the expression of AdipoRI mRNA in skeletal muscle.

To explore an easily executive and conveniently generalized method with effectiveness and low costing for myopia screening at the early stage.Research was performed to testify the reasonability of using axial length/corneal radius (AL/CR) for myopia screening in children by comparing the cost between AL/CR plus vision acuity (VA) and simple VA examination.Chinese school-aged children in Yangfang school district,Beijing (n=1427,aged 6~12 years old) were randomly grouped for either pure VA examination or for VA plus AL/CR examination.Those suspicious myopic children were informed for further refractive examination.Finally,the cost from screening to definite diagnosis of refractive error was calculated.Generally,compared with VA examination,the total cost was reduced by 15.12% and by 12.34%,respectively,in the elder group using VA plus AL/CR examination.VA plus AL/CR examination is an economical and reasonable method for screening suspicious myopia in Chinese school-aged children compared with pure VA examination.
