Objective To analyze the death causes of the burn patients so as to explore the effective procedures which can raise burn management level. Methods One hundred patients died of burn injury during the past 20 years were enrolled in the study. The died patients were grouped as A (1984～1993) and B (1994～2003) groups, each group containing 50 cases. The mortality, burn area and depth, etiology, pre-hospital treatment, admission time, survival time, tracheostomy, the application of respirator and fibrobronchoscope, operation times, continuous renal replace treatment (CRRT), the incidence of inhalation injury and the pathogenesis of burn death were analyzed and compared between A and B groups. Results There were no differences in burn severity (area and degree), etiology and causes of burn death between the two groups. But the mortality in B group (1%) was evidently lower than that in A group (2%, P

Objective To construct an expression vector harboring CYP2B1 suicide gene, and detect its expressions in tumor cell lines. Methods PCR amplification was performed using primers based on murine CYP2B1 gene sequence from gene bank and pc3/2B1 as template. PCR product was directly inserted an eukaryotic expression plasmid pcDNA3.0. The recombinants were analyzed and identified by restriction enzyme analysis, PCR and sequencing. Then the recombinant vector pcDNA3.0/CYP2B1 was transfected into three tumor cell lines by liposome-mediated method. The expressions of CYP2B1 gene in all the cell lines were detected by RT-PCR method. Results pCDNA3.0/CYP2B1 vector was successfully constructed, and could express CYP2B1 mRNA in the three tumor cell lines. Conclusion Eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.0/CYP2B1 containing CYP2B1 gene under the control of a CMV promoter is an novel effective expression vector for tumor gene therapy.

Methods Renal tubular epithelial cells in rats were gained through digestion by pamcreatin. aFGF was added into cultures of renal tubular epithelial cells, as experimental groups. The number of cells was counted and the shape of cells was observed at 12,24,48 and 72 h. Results Renal tubular epithelial cells were successfully obtained from kidneys. After treated for 72 h,the renal tubular epithelial cells showed different proliferation in experimental and control groups. There was no obvious difference at 12 h, but there was statistical difference between the two groups at 24 h,48h and 72 h(P

Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNENs) are clinically rare,however,it shows an in creasing trend recent years.Surgical management,such as radical resection or debulking,plays an important role in this field.Different procedures can be applied to tumors with different types,locations,and developing stages.The optimal clinical management of pNENs involves a multidisciplinary approach in order to improve prognosis.

Objective To explore the curative effect and nursing of enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) on patients with ischemic cerebral apoplexy. Methods In September 2013 to March 2013 in Shenzhen Futian District People′s Hospital neurology hospital, toally 286 patients with ischemic cerebral apoplexy were randomly divided into two groups, control group and treatment group with 143 cases in each group. The control group used conventional treatment and the treatment group used EECP. The score of clinical nerve function and defect improved Barthel index were compared. Result The score of clinical nerve function defect and improved Barthel index of the treatment group before the treatment were without difference (all P>0.05). The score of clinical nerve function defect and improved Barthel index of the treatment group were less than those of control group after the treatment (all P < 0.05). Conclusion Ischemic stroke patients with positive EECP can significantly increase clinical neural function and life ability , improve patient′s quality of life.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of vestibular migraine in patients from the clinic and ward of the neurological department in comprehensive hospitals.Methods A total of 226 patients diagnosed as vestibular migraine were enrolled in the study.Clinical data were collected and analyzed,including the medical history,clinical symptoms and signs,as well as the result of diagnostic examinations.Results The mean age of the patients at the visit was 51.7 years old,with the male to female ratio of 1:1.48.The occurrence of vertigo and migraine varied in order,with 53.1％ (120/226) patients presented migraine several years before vertigo.The duration time of vertigo ranged from seconds to days,with 1.8％ (4/226) patients presented no headache during the whole course.Several punctate long T2 or high FLARE (fluid attented inversion recovery) signals scattered at the centrum ovale.Conclusions Vestibular migraine has complex mechanism and presents multiple clinical manifestations with certain regularities of the onset.Differential diagnosis should be made from the similar diseases.

Objective To improve the diagnosing level of lunate and perilunate dislocation through analysing X-ray finding and causes of missing diagnosis.Methods 16 cases of lunate and perilunate dislocation missed diagnosis were analysed.Results In 16 cases,there were 3 cases of ventral lunate dislocation,2 cases of trans-scaphoid ventral lunate dislocation,6 cases of dorsal perilunate lunate dislocation,3 cases of trans-scaphoid dorsal perilunate lunate dislocation and 2 cases of atypical dorsal perilunate lunate dislocation.6 cases were missed in diagnosis(37.5%).Conclusion Knowing well the normal X-ray sign of wrist,mastering the X-ray characteristic of each types of dislocation and fracture,is the linchpin of reducing missing diagnosis.

AIM: To investigate the effect of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on radiation-induced splenocytic apoptosis of mice. METHODS: At 14 h after whole body irradiation with 0.5 Gy and 1.0 Gy,splenocytes were cultured with and without bFGF,and splenocytic apoptosis was quantitatively analysed by flow cytometry. Cell proliferation was determined by the method of [3H]-TdR incorporation. RESULTS: bFGF(1 ?g/mL and 2 ?g/mL) could reduce the rate of cell apoptosis ,and promote the proliferation of splenocytes. CONCLUSION: bFGF could inhibit radiation-induced splenocytic apoptosis and promote the proliferation of splenocytes and then enhance body immunity.

Objective To improve the recognization of long term interval between optic neuropathy and spinal cord injury of neuromyelitis optica. Methods One 51-year old male patient with 37 years'interval between optic neuropathy and spinal cord injury of neuromyelitis optica underwent the examination of plasma and cerebrospinal fluid and head and spinal MRI examinations, who was also followed up. His clinical data were analyzed and related literature was reviewed. Results The myelin basic protein and IgG index in his cerebrospinal fluid was high, his oligoclonal band of cerebrospinal fluid was positive, and abnormal finding in visual evoked potential. Abnormal intramedullary long T2 signals was showed in spinal cord MRI at T1-7 segment. When dignosed as neuromyelitis optica, the clinical symptom and signs was improved with corticosteroid and gamma globulin therapy. The patient was in stable condition at present.Conclusions There could be a long term interval between optic neuritis and myelitis. One should pay attention to clinical features and imaging examination of subclinical lesion in spinal cord and brain and conoide the possibility of developing neuromyelitis optica or multiple sclerosis.

Objective To explore the clinical features, imaging and their diagnosis vaule of Baló's concentric sclerosis (BCS). Methods The clinical manifestation, laboratory examination, neuroimaging characteristics, pathology and follow-up of 12 (2 outpatients and 10 inpatients) cases of BCS were analyzed retrospectively. Results The onset age of 12 patients (male 4, female 8) ranged from 8 to 54 years old (mean 36.8 years). Unconcerned and slowness response were common in the disease onset (7 cases).Other symptoms and signs such as hypophrenia ( 10 cases), limitation of limb or hand movement (8 cases),urinary and fecal incontinence (7 cases), hypo-myodynamia (7 cases), positive pyramidal sign (6 cases)were not rare in course of disease. Eight cases underwent the examination of cerebrospinal fluid myelin basic protein, which increased in 7 cases. Demyelinating change and perivascular inflammatory infiltration were shown in 6 brain biopsies. The involvements of multi-lesions were found in 11 cases. Four patients underwent CT scanning and all the cases showed with hypodense lesions and couldn' t be enhanced. On MRI, all cases appeared round or round-like in shape. Enhanced lesions showed ring-like or half-ting-like shape (8 cases) and concentric ring (3 cases). It's easy to be misdiagnosed as brain tumor (8 cases).Conclusions BCS is a kind of demyelinating disease of subacute or chronic onset accompanied with cognitive disorder being the most common initiating symptoms. It's prone to be misdiagnosed. Diagnosis depends on MRI and corticosteroid treatment is effective. BCS has a good prognosis and presents with benign clinical course.
