Objecfive To investigate the prevalence of Ureaplasma urealyticum(UU)and Mycoplasma hominis(MH)infections in urogenital tract and their sensitivities to drugs in Qinhuangdao area from 2006 to 2007.Methods UU and MH were detected by Mycoplasma IST kits in urine samples from 3062 patients suspected as urogenital tract infection and the sensitivity tests for 8 antimicrobial agents were performed.Results Mycolasmas were detected in 1262 patients from 3062 patients suspected as urogenital tract infection,in which 1037 were of UU infection,41 were of MH infection and 184 were of UU+MH infection.Both strains were sensitive to josamycin,doxycycline and tetracycline,but were less sensitive to ofloxacin and ciprofloxacin.Conclusions Drug resistance is increasing for Mycoplasma and sensitivity test is important in treatment of urogenital tract infection by Mycoplasma.

[Objective]To explore displacement and plantar pressure distribution of the forefoot before and after the plantar fascia and other plantar ligaments were sectioned.[Method]Seven fresh adult cadaveric feet were tested with the main plantar ligaments exposed,including the plantar fascia,spring ligament,short plantar ligament and long plantar ligament.The displacements of the metatarsals were recorded and calculated with digital speckle correlation measurement(DSCM),also F-scan insoles were put under the plantar aspect of the feet when the speciments were loaded to 700N vertically.The special shifts and plantar pressure data of the metatarsals was collected and stored before and after the main plantar ligaments were sectioned.[Result]The transverse movements of the metatarsals did not change significantly,the same as their vertical displacements except the first metatarsal after the plantar fascia was sectioned,while the peak pressure shifted laterally.When the four major plantar ligaments were all injured,all of the above changed significantly.[Conclusion]The plantar fasciotomy will not consequentially lead to collapse of the forefoot structure.But the redistribution of the plantar pressure and the compensation of other ligaments may result in later complication.

Objective To design an approach above the fibular head for treating posterolateral tibial plateau fracture,and to investigate its feasibility,advantages and disadvantages in clinical application.Methods Ten frozen adult cadaveric knees were dissected to observe the correlation of the important lateral structures and effect of knee flexion on tensity of the lateral collateral ligament.The distance (OA) from superior border of facies articularis capitis fibulae to lateral edge of articular surface of tibial plateau and the distance (OB) from the cross point of lateral collateral ligament and facies articularis capitis fibulae level to lateral edge of articular surface of tibial plateau were measured.According to the anatomic measurement results,the approach above the fibular head was designed.Then 12 patients with posterolateral tibial plateau fracture were treated through this approach,and the short-term clinical results were evaluated.Results The value of OA ranged from 9.43 to 14.92 mm (average,12.97±1.83 mm).At 0° of genuflex,the lateral collateral ligament was tense and the average value of OB was 4.87±0.33 mm.During the course of genuflex,the lateral collateral ligament got loose following which the value of OB became larger.At 60° of genuflex,the lateral collateral ligament was most loose,and the posterolateral tibial plateau could be exposed completely by drawing posterolaterally lateral collateral ligament and rotating medially tibia.All patients were followed up for 6 to 24 months (average,18 months).The average bone healing time was 10.2 weeks (8 to 12 weeks).According to Rasmussen's knee functional score system,the results were excellent in 10 cases and good in 2 cases.No complications occurred,such as numbness of limbs,instability of the knee and internal fixation loosening.Conclusion The approach above the fibular head is feasible,simple and safe for treating posterolateral tibial plateau fracture.

Objective To analyze the X-ray,CT and MRI appearances of primary synovial osteochondromatosis.Methods CT scanning was performed in 22 cases,of which 16 cases underwent X-ray examination and 2 cases underwent MRI scan.Results Of 22 cases of synovial osteochondromatosis,13 cases were male and 9 cases were female.The monoarticular involvment was found in 20 cases,and double-articular involvment in 2 cases.Variable size and number of the cartilaginous nodules with calcification and ossification within and surround the joints were showed in 20 cases.The soft mass with calcification were showed in 2 cases.Bone destruction were found in 2 cases,which were induced by compression of the cartilaginous nodules,this was confirmed by operations.Conclusion The cartilaginous nodules with calcification or ossification can be shown by X-ray and CT san.The cartilaginous nodules without calcification or ossification can be shown by MR san.

Objective To investigate the MRI signs of discoid meniscus and to establish the criterion of MRI diagnosis.Methods 40 cases of discoid meniscus were analysed retrospectively. The methods of measurement and the classification of discoid meniscus were studied. Besides, the injurious criterion of diagnosis were discussed.Results All of 40 cases were lateral discoid meniscus. 24 cases were classified as slab type and 16 cases wedge type. 38 cases developed in different degree of meniscal injury. The rate of injury was 95%. Conclusion MRI examination is principal in diagnosis of discoid meniscus. Proportion of transverse diameter of the midbody of meniscus to the transverse width of the tibia exceeded 40%, which is necessary to diagnose discoid meniscus.

Objective To examine the expression of tight junction protein claudin-5 in blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB) after spinal cord injury about rat. Methods One hundred-twenty adult male SD rats were randomly divided into blank group (60) and injured group (60). The animal model of spinal cord injury was established using modified Allen method. The expression of claudin-5 in BSCB was examined at 6 h, 12 h, 1 d, 3 d, 5 d and 7 d (five rats per time point). Western blot and RT_PCR were used to detect protein and mRNA expression levels of claudin-5, respectively. Results The success rate of spinal cord injury molding was 81.7%. In injured group, EB content increased gradually over time, reached the peak at the third day(0.9435 ± 0.0813)μg/g and then reduced gradually (P<0.05), EB content was signifi-cantly higher in injured group than in blank group. Claudin-5 mRNA expression in injured group reduced gradually over time and reached the lowest point at the third day(2.871 ± 0.527)and then increased gradually(P<0.05). Claudin-5 mRNA expression was significantly lower in injured group than in blank group(P<0.05). Claudin-5 protein expression in injured group reduced gradually over time, reached the lowest at the third day(0.072 ±0.008)and then increased gradually (P<0.05). Claudin- 5 protein expression was significantly lower in injured group than in blank group(P<0.05). Con-clusions The alteration of claudin-5 expression after SCI may lead to the permeability of BSCB, which may in turn con-tribute to the secondary spinal cord injury.

Objective To analyze changes in lactic acid level in patients with late-onset intracranial hematoma after craniocerebral injury and investigate their relativity.Methods Forty-eight patients with late-onset intracranial hematoma after craniocerebral injury treated in our hospital between May 2009 and December 2012 were enrolled as observation group.There were 32 males and 16 females.Moreover,50 cases checked up in our hospital during the same period were studied as health population controls,including 35 males and 15 females.Level of lactic acid was measured on admission,at the time of definite diagnosis as well as at days 7 and 14 after treatment and compared between groups.Results Level of lactic acid was (1.77 ±0.21) mmol/L in control group and (1.82 ± 0.25) mmol/L in observation group respectively on admission (t =1.070,P ＞ 0.05) ; Level of lactic acid was (3.32 ± 0.89) mmol/L in observation group at the time of definite diagnosis,which increased to (3.74 ± 1.16) mmol/L at days 7 after treatment and decreased to (1.89 ±0.75) mmol/L at days 14 after treatment.When diagnosed and treated for 7 days,level of lactic acid differed significantly between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05).Level of lactic acid related to craniocerebral injury at each time point,but higher correlation coefficient was observed at the time of definite diagnosis and 7 days after treatment with 0.986 and 0.989 respectively.Conclusion Level of lactic acid relates to late-onset intracranial hematoma after craniocerebral injury,which can be used as reference for progression of the disease.

Objective To study the effects of methylprednisolone on the permeability of blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB) and claudin-5 expression after spinal cord injury in rats. Methods The rat model of spinal cord injury was estab?lished using modified Allen method. SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group, spinal cord injury group and methylprednisolone pretreatment group. The permeability of BSCB and expression of claudin–5 were assessed at 12 h, 1, 3, 5, and 7 d after the onset of spinal cord injury (five animals per each time point). RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of claudin-5. Results The success rate of the model was 84.0%. EB content was sig?nificantly higher in spinal cord injury group than in sham-operated group at each time point (F value 27.732,P<0.05). EB content was lower in methylprednisolone pretreatment group than in spinal cord injury group (F value 48.149,P<0.05). The mRNA expression of claudin-5 was lower in spinal cord injury group than sham-operated group at each time point (F value 12.248,P<0.05). The mRNA expression of claudin–5 was higher in methylprednisolone pretreatment group than in spinal cord injury group at each time point (Fvalue 15.316,P<0.05). The protein expression of claudin-5 was lower in spinal cord injury group than in sham operated group at each time point (Fvalue 18.108,P<0.05). The pro?tein expression of Claudin-5 was higher in methylprednisolone pretreatment group than spinal cord injury group at each time point (F value 20.247,P<0.05). Conclusions Methylprednisolone improves permeability of BSCB after spinal cord injury probably through enhancing claudin-5 expression in rats.

A large ischemic stroke caused by malignant middle cerebral artery infarction can lead to severe cerebral edema, even cerebral hernia. This condition deteriorates and progresses rapidly, usually leading to death. Due to limitations of conservative treatments, decompressive hemicraniectomy becomes a favored option in clinic. Recent years, a series of ex?perimental studies and clinical trials achieved reliable evidence that decompressive hemicraniectomy is an effective treat?ment for patients who suffer from malignant middle cerebral artery infarction. With the successful surgical procedure, most patients benefit from a reduced mortality and improved functional outcome without severe disability. Nevertheless, plenty of issues about decompressive hemicraniectomy still need to be solved. Here, we reviewed researches of early diagnosis of ma?lignant middle cerebral infarction and the application of decompressive hemicraniectomy as its treatment.

Objective To observe the changes of hippocampal NogoA-NgR1 signaling on postoperative cognitive function (POCD) in aged mice, and explore the potential underling mechanism.Methods Isoflurane anesthesia and laparotomy were applied to establish the POCD model.Forty aged male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into the following four groups (n=10): group O2+saline (group OS), group O2+NEP1-40 (group ON), group isoflurane anesthesia+laparotomy surgery+saline (group SS), and group isoflurane anesthesia+laparotomy surgery+NEP1-40 (group SN).Cannula placement was performed into lateral ventricle 7 days before the surgery.Animals were subjected to an administration of NEP1-40 (20 μg/2 μl) or isochoric saline via intracerebroventricular injection once daily for 8 consecutive days, injection was given from 2 h before isoflurane anesthesia to the last behavioral test.Open field test was performed at 5th d after operation.Contextual and cued fear conditioning training and testing were exhibited at 6th and 7th d after operation, respectively.The hippocampus was harvested 2 h after the behavioral test.Western blot was used to detect the expressions of NogoA, NgR1, RhoA, ROCK2 and GAP43.Golgi staining was applied to measure the changes of dendritic spines in hippocampal CA1 area.Results Compared with the groups OS and ON, the freezing time in the contextual fear conditioning test was significantly decreased, the contents of NogoA, NgR1, RhoA and ROCK2 were significantly increased, the content of GAP43 and the number of dendritic spine were significantly decreased in group SS (P<0.05).Compared with the group SS, the freezing time in the contextual fear conditioning test was significantly increased, the contents of RhoA and ROCK2 were significantly decreased, the content of GAP43 and the number of dendritic spine were significantly increased in group SN (P<0.05).Conclusion Over-activated of hippocampal NogoA-NgR1 signaling participated in the pathogenesis of POCD in aged mice.
