Objective To investigate the effect of rotational training on spasm after spinal cord injury. Methods From July, 2010 to July, 2015, 38 patients with spinal cord injury were randomly divided into treatment group (n=19) and control group (n=19). Both groups accept-ed routine physical therapy, and the treatment group accetpted rotation training in addition. They were assessed with modified Ashworth Scale, adductor angle, hip flexion, and modified Barthel Index before and 6 weeks after treatment. Results Both groups improved in modi-fied Ashworth Scale (Z>-2.286, P<0.05), adductor angle (t>5.6121, P<0.001), angle of hip flexion (t>5.1677, P<0.001) and modified Barth-el Index (t>-6.7428, P<0.001) after treatment, and improved more in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Rotation training may relieve spasm after spinal cord injury, and improve the range of motion and activities of daily living.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of sepsis caused by gram negative or positive pathogens and funguses in preterm infants.Methods The clinical data of 140 premature infants with sepsis admitted to preterm neonatal intensive care unit of Bayi Children's Hospital from October 2008 to June 2011 were collected and analyzed retrospectively.The clinical features of sepsis caused by different types of pathogens in preterm infants were compared by SPSS 18.0 software.Comparison of measurement data was conducted by one way ANOVA,and comparison between groups was performed by LSD method.Rates among groups were compared by Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test.Results Of 140 preterm infants with sepsis,70 cases were caused by gramnegative bacteria,36 by gram positive bacteria,and 34 by funguses.The top three gram negative sepsis pathogens were Klebsiella pneumonia (55.7 ％,n =39),Escherichia coli (20.0 ％,n =14) and Acinetobacter baumannii (12.9％,n =9).The top three gram positive sepsis pathogens were Staphylococcus epidermidis (36.1％, n =13), Staphylococcus hominis (22.2％, n =8) and Staphylococcus haemolyticus (19.4％,n=7).The top four fungus sepsis pathogens were Candida parapsilosis (44.1％,n=15),Candida albicans (23.5％,n=8),Candida famata (8.8％,n=3)and Cryptococcus laurentii (8.8％,n=3).There were no significant differences in delivery mode,fetal distress, asphyxia, fetal growth restriction, meconium-stained amniotic fluid, maternal infection,hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy,gestational diabetes mellitus,peripherally inserted central venous catheter,mechanical ventilation before infection,cortical hormon（e） (e)xposure,intraventricular hemorrhage, periventricular leukomalacia, peripheral blood immature-to-total neutrophil ratio,recovery time of platelet,the time of infection onset,fever and hypothermia among the three groups (P＞0.05).While there were differences in gestational age [(30.4 ± 2.3) weeks,(31.0±2.4) weeks and (29.5±1.8) weeks,F=4.317,P=0.015],birth weight [(1512.5±406.0) g,(1563.8±485.4) g and (1328.8±303.2) g,F=3.190,P=0.044],premature rupture of membranes rate [24.3％ (17/70),16.7％ (6/36) and 44.1％ (15/34),X2 =7.241,P=0.034],rate of surgery during neonatal period [12.9％ (9/70),38.9％ (14/36) and 11.8％ (4/34),X2 =10.430,P=0.005],the incidence of lowperfusion [64.3％ (45/70),30.6％ (11/36) and 50.0％ (17/34),X2 =10.922,P=0.004],rate of frequent apnea [67.1％ (47/70),36.1％ (13/36) and 55.9％ (19/34),X2=9.341,P=0.009],incidence of low white blood cell [21.4％ (15/70),8.3％ (3/36) and 32.4％ (11/34),X2=6.267,P=0.042],thrombocytopenia rate [64.3％ (45/70),16.7％ (6/36)and 67.6％ (23/34),X2 =25.576,P=0.000],white blood cell count [(19.9± 17.8) × 109/L,(19.9±14.3) ×109/L and (12.0±8.1)×109/L,F=3.553,P=0.031],platelet count [(159.1±169.1) ×109/L,(311.8±179.7) ×109/L and (121.4±123.4) ×109/L,F=14.140,P=0.000],C-reactive protein [(76.8±70.1) mg/L,(16.6±27.2) mg/L and (31.8±27.5) mg/L,F=17.248,P=0.000],incidence of central nervous system infections [1.4％ (1/70),2.8％ (1/36) and 11.8％(4/34),X2 =5.066,P=0.043],retinopathy rate of premature infants [38.6％ (27/70),50.0％(18/36) and 67.7％ (23/34),X2 =8.780,P=0.012],bronchopulmonary dysplasia rate [8.6％ (6/70),11.1％ (4/36) and 26.5％ (9/34),X2=5.837,P=0.044] and mortality [11.4％ (8/70),0.0％ (0/36) and 2.9％ (1/34),X2 =5.361,P =0.042] among the three groups.Conclusions There are significant differences among sepsis caused by different types of pathogens in risk factors (gestational age,birth weight,premature rupture of membranes and neonatal surgical procedures),clinical manifestations,infection indexes and prognosis in preterm infants.Sepsis caused by gram negative bacilli liked to present shock with obvious increasing of C-reactive protein; and the prognosis is the worst.Central nervous system infection is more common in fungal infection; and the rates of retinopathy of prematurity and bronchopulmonary dysplasia are higher.Sepsis caused by gram positive cocci have mild clinical manifestations and infection indexes variations and better prognosis.

ObjectiveTo compare the neonatal outcomes between infants of assisted conception (AC) and natural conception (NC). Methods A prospective case-control study was conducted.Eligible mothers were invited to this study at 28 weeks of gestation and were followed up to delivery.All newborns were examined by pediatricians right after birth.Data including gestational age,birth weight,admission to neonatal intensive care unit (NICU),and presence of any major malformation were collected.Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS 13.0.Difference between two groups was compared by x2 test. ResultsSix hundred and seventy-three newborns were enrolled into this study,including 325 in AC group and 348 in NC group.There were no differences between the demographic characteristics of the two groups,including maternal age,parents' education,family income and proportion of primipara (P＞0.05).The incidences of twins (32.62％ vs 3.45％,x2 =98.88),preterm birth (30.46％ vs 7.76％,x2=56.92),low birth weight infant (32.31％ vs 8.91％,x2 =57.07)and admission to neonatal intensive care unit (27.38％ vs 8.91％,x2 =39.16) and proportion of cesarean birth (62.77％ vs 21.55％,x2=117.64) in AC group were significantly higher than in NC group (all P＜0.01),except for the incidence of birth defect (4.62％ vs 2.59％,x2=2.01,P＞ 0.05).However,no significant differences was found in the above items when only singletons were compared between the two groups (P＞0.05),except for the cesarean section rate (61.18％ vs 22.03％,x2 =100.93,P＜0.01).There were no difference in any of the above neonatal outcomes when different assisted reproductive technologies applied were compared(in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer,intracytoplasmic sperm injection and frozen embryo transfer) (P＞0.05).Conclusions Neonatal outcome after assisted conception is a bit worse than natural conception,which might mainly due to the large proportion of multiple pregnancy after assisted conception.In order to improve neonatal outcome after assisted conception,the number of embryos transferred should be limited.

Objective To determine the incidence and risk factors of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in preterm infants.Methods Fundus examinations were performed by RetCam Ⅱ ophthalmoscopy on 2185 premature infants (birth weight ≤ 2000 g or gestational age≤34 weeks)admitted into the neonatal intensive care unit of Beijing Bayi Children's Hospital from January 1st 2009 to December 31st 2010.According to the results,all infants were divided into ROP group and nonRO P group.Two-sample t test and Logistic regression analysis were used to investigate the risk factors of ROP.Results Among 2185 premature infants,287 (13.1 ％) cases were diagnosed with RO P.According to International Classification of RO P,34 cases (11.9 ％) were in zone Ⅰ,147 cases (51.2％) in zone Ⅱ,and 106 cases(36.9％) in zone Ⅲ.And there were 117 cases (40.8％) with stage 1 lesion,142 cases (49.5％) with stage 2 lesion,28 cases (9.7％) with stage 3 lesion,and no stage 4 or 5 lesion was identified.Thirty-six cases (12.5 ％) were accompanied by additional diseases.Logistic analysis showed that small gestational age (OR=0.859,95％CI:0.770-0.958,P=0.006),low birth weight (OR=0.729,95％CI:0.6340.838,P=0.000),long duration of oxygen supplement (OR=2.221,95％CI:1.904-2.592,P=0.000),assistant ventilation (OR=3.104,95％CI:2.0964.956,P=0.000),apnea (OR=1.767,95％CI:1.103 2.831,P=0.018) and=anemia (OR=2.242,95％CI:1.641-3.604,P=0.000) were independent risk factors of ROP.Conclusions The incidence of ROP in premature infants is high.Small gestational age and low birth weight,long duration of oxygen supplement,assistant ventilation,apnea and anemia are risk factors of ROP.Preventive measures should be taken against these factors.

Objective To study the effect of magnetic doxorubicin stealth liposome on human gastric cancer xenografts in nude mice.Methods Human gastric cancer cell line MKN-45 was implanted into 36 nude mice.Different kinds of drug were injected through the caudal vein of tumor bearing nude mice divided into 6 groups .Permanent magnet was put into tumor in targeting group.Results The growth speed of tumor in the group of MDL (+) significantaly slowed down than other groups.The rate of tumor restrain in tumor weight and tumor volume of MDL (+) group were 71% and 70%, which were remarkably higher than those of the DOX and MDL (-) group (all P

Objective:To evaluate the advantages of cortical perichondrium retention of costal cartilage in tip plasty.Methods:A total of 618 female cases were retrospectively analyzed from July 2017 to July 2018 in Zhengzhou Meilai Medical Beauty Hospital that underwent comprehensive line of rib cartilage rhinoplasty for beauty, aged 18-52 years with mean 27±6 years. According to different modification graft used in plasty, the cases were divided into reserve costal perichondrium cortex group (experimental group) and simple rib cartilage cortex group (control group). Statistical analyses were carried out 1 month and 12 months after operation. The tip displacement visualization was compared between the two groups and the advantages and disadvantages were evaluated in both.Results:After the surgery of the 618 patients, the rate of displacement in the experimental group was 3.6%, and that in the control group was 7.9% (χ 2=4.95, P<0.05). The rate of the implant exposure in the experimental group was 4.7%, and that in the control group was 9.1% (χ 2=4.38, P<0.05). The reserve costal perichondrium cortex used in the nasoplasty kept the prominent and stable nasal tip after the operation, and longterm follow-up showed there were no displacement and deformation occured in the patients. Conclusions:The application of costal cartilaginous cortex retaining costal perichondrium in tip plasty can obtain good nasal tip protrusion and stable rotation. It is an ideal nasal tip shaping material and worthy of clinical application.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of remodeling the dense dermal fiber structure in the suprapical region on the correction of nasal hypertrophy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was carried out in beauty-seeking patients who underwent comprehensive costal cartilage rhinoplasty with nasal hypertrophy in our hospital from September 2016 to February 2018. The technique of horizontal scratch reconstruction and deep dermal suture fixation at the tip of the nose was used to fix the dense fibrous dermal fiber structure in the suprapical area. Photos were followed up 12 months after the operation to observe whether the suprapical area had arch and upward displacement of the nasal tip.Results:All patients healed primarily, and the patients were satisfied with the effects. Follow-up results showed that only one female patient showed upshift of nasal tip after surgery among the 57 patients with hypertrophy of nasal tip for beauty. The remaining 56 patients had no upward movement of the nose tip and arching of the upper turning area.Conclusions:By reshaping the dense dermal fiber structure of the suprapical area, the suprapical area of the patients who seek beauty after the operation will have a natural transition, beautiful shape and stable nasal structure.

Objective To verify the infantile amnesia phenomenon and discuss the effect of rapamycin injection on infantile amnesia and hippocampal neurogenesis.Methods (1) In experiment one,17-day-old (P17) and 60-day-old (P60) male Sprague-Dawley rats (n=84) were trained in a passive-avoidance task (they were randomly sub-divided into the shocked group and non-shocked group);all rats were tested immediately,2 and 7 days after training for memory retention.(2) In experiment two,P17 rats (n=84) were randomly divided into three groups:vehicle group,20 mg/kg rapamycin group and 40 mg/kg rapamycin group (they were sub-divided into the shocked group and non-shocked group);P17 rats were immediately injected with either vehicle or rapamycin after passive-avoidance training,and memory retention was evaluated 2 and 7 days after training.(3) In experiment three,P1 7 rats (n=48) were randomly divided into four groups:normal group,vehicle group,20 mg/kg rapamycin group and 40 mg/kg rapamycin group;immunofluorescence staining of BrdU/DCX was detected to observe the hippocampal neurogenesis at post-natal day 19 (P19) and post-natal day 24 (P24) after vehicle or rapamycin injection at P17 rats.Results In experiment one,P17 and P60 shocked rats exhibited comparable levels of crossing latencies when being tested immediately (P＞0.05),when being tested after 2 days and 7 days,P17 rats forgot more rapidly than P60 rats (P＜0.05);there were no age-related differences in crossing latencies between the non-shocked groups (P＞0.05).In experiment two,three shocked groups exhibited comparable levels of crossing latencies when being tested 2 days after training (P＞0.05),however,administration of rapamycin could enhance the memory retention 7 days after training;significant differences were noted between the vehicle group and each of the rapamycin treated groups (P＜0.05);there were no dose-related differences in crossing latencies among the non-shocked groups (P＞0.05).In experiment three,less BrdU-positive and BrdU/DCX-positive cells were found in the DG of the hippocampus at 20 mg/kg and 40 mg/kg rapamycin groups as compared with those in the vehicle group at P19 and P24 rats (P＜0.05).Conclusion The infantile amnesia phenomenon is verified,and rapamycin may enhance the memory retention in infant rats by reducing the hippocampal neurogenesis.
