In order to meet the requirements of ultrasound bone density measurement, we designed a sofware based on Visual Studio C+ + 2008. The software includes interface design, acquisition and control, data processing and parameter extraction, data storage and printing. Excellent human-computer interface (HCI) will give users a convenient experience. Auto gain control (AGC) and digital filter can improve the precision effectively. In addition, we can observe waveform clearly in real time. By using USB communication, we can send control commands to the acquisition and get data effectively, which can shorten the measuring time. Then we calculated the speed of sound (SOS) and broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA). Patients' information can be accessed by using XML document. Finally, the software offers printing function.

BACKGROUND:The anatomical structure of acetabulum is different for the developmental dysplasia of the hip, which is smal and shal ow, with abundant cal us and scar tissue. It is difficult to determine the diameter of cup and instal ation of the cup during arthroplasty. Loosening and survival of postoperative prosthesis were influenced by local mechanical changes.
OBJECTIVE:Using the three-dimensional finite element analysis, the stress distribution in acetabular cup-bone interface after implanting cups with different diameters was studied during total hip replacement in treating the dysplasia of hip.
METHODS:Pelvis of developmental dysplasia of the hip patients was selected in this study. Acetabulum in the dysplasia was scanned by spiral CT. The computer simulation technology was applied to reconstruct the three-dimensional model of the pelvic for observing the dysplasia of hip from CT scan picture. Implanting cups with different diameters were simulated. Then the pelvis and acetabular cup model were meshed. The mechanics analysis tool was used to analyze three-dimensional model.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:For the developmental dysplasia, we chose cup with smal diameter that could lead to better bone bed inclusion of cup during total hip replacement. Smal diameter cup induced a smal contact area and increased unit area stress. On the other hand, with implanting the larger cup and increasing degree of acetabular grinding, the acetabular wal bone breaks more obvious, so that the stress (compressive stress and shearing force) concentration at the top of the acetabulum and uneven stress in the rest were apparent increasingly. Thus, in clinical practice, under the premise of the bone bed inclusion, a large diameter cup is helpful to good distribution of stress during total hip replacement, but the perforation of acetabular wal induced by enlarged bone bed should be avoided or minimized.

In recent years, the studies of the treatment of cerebral infarction have turned to the areas of neuroprotective agents. The promotion of angiogenesis after stroke will become one of the novel approaches after cerebral infarction. Studies have shown that the activation of the kallikrein-kinin system (KKS) after cerebral infarction may promote angiogenesis after cerebral infarction, improve the neurological deficits, and reduce the mortality and disability. This article reviews the regulatory mechanisms of KKS in the angiogenesis after cerebral infarction.

BACKGROUND:The anatomical strucure of acetabulum is smal and shal ow in adult acetabular dysplasia patients. The large amount of cal us and scar tissues in the acetabulum make it difficult to identify and instal the acetabular cup during arthroplasty. The comprehensive understanding of the acetabulum before arthroplasty is the premise for selecting the appropriate acetabular prosthesis and making the acetabular reconstruction program. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the application value of three-dimensional reconstruction technique in choosing the size of acetabular cup before total hip arthroplasty for acetabular dysplasia. METHODS:Spiral CT was carried out in the 11 acetabular dysplasia patients who waiting for total hip arthroplasty. The acetabulum was multi-planar reconstructed, and the size of the acetabular cup was determined through digitized acetabular cup template implantation, and then the mathching degree assessment was performed to compare with the actual size. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Spiral CT could clearly show the acetabular morphology, and the 71.4%of the acetabular size chosen in the three-dimensional preoperative plan was the same as actual one, the intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.888. The agreement was much higher than that of two-dimensional preoperative plan based on X-ray plain film. For the patients with acetabular dysplasia, the acetabulum became saml er and shal ower, and there were various extents of bone defects in the superior-lateral acetabulum. Three-dimensional multi-planar reconstruction can effectively evaluate the acetabular morphology, and three-dimensional preoperative plan can provide useful information for the choice of implant.

Objective To investigate the incidence of dental fluorosis,urinary fluoride level and intelligence of children who lived in the coal-burning-borne endemic fluorosis areas and to reveal the effects of comprehensive control measures on intelligence of children in this area.Methods Children aged 8-12 who lived in coal-burning-borne endemic fluorosis areas in Bijie City of Guizhou Province were selected and divided into two groups according to the duration of comprehensive treatments given:long treatment group (Xiaba Village and Zhongtun Village,furnace stovewas changed and comprehensive control measure of health education was carried out for more than 3 years) and short treatment group(Chadi Village and Maoliping Village,stoves were improved and health education time ＜ 1 year).The children who lived in a non-fluorosis area were selected as controls in 2012.Dental fluorosis was diagnosed by the method of Dean; urinary fluoride was analyzed by the method of fluoride-ion selective electrode; and the intelligence quotient (IQ) was measured by Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices Test.Results The number of children surveyed in control group was 104,long treatment group was 298,short treatment group was 339,and the incidence rates of dental fluorosis were 0 (0/104),725％(216/298) and 85.2％ (289/339),respectively,and the incidence rates of dental fluorosis in children lived in the endemic fluorosis areas were significantly increased compared with that of control group; the difference of incidence rates between long treatment group and short treatment group was statistically significantly(x2 =15.736,P ＜ 0.01).Urinary fluoride content were (2.33 ± 0.18) and (3.03 ± 0.16)mg/L,respectively,compared with the control group[(1.34 ± 0.64) mg/L],the values in endemic fluorosis areas were significantly higher(F =306.53,P ＜ 0.01).Above average IQ of children in the control group was 97.1％ (101/104),which was significantly higher than that of long and short treatment groups; after a lengthy treatment,mental retardation detection rate was significantly lower in the low-age group,8-10 year-old ehildren(x2 =7.542,P ＜ 0.01).Urinary fluoride content was negatively correlated with the level of IQ (r =-0.553,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions The intelligence development of children in coal-burning-borne endemic fluorosis area is significantly delayed.After a certain period of comprehensive treatment,the decreased level of cognition is inhibited and the mental retardation in the low-age group is improved.

Objective To assess the left ventricular longitudinal shrinkage function in liver cirrhosis patients with two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (2D-STI). Methods Echocardiography and Doppler echocardiography were performed in 34 patients with liver cirrhosis and 35 healthy subjects of corresponding ages. High frame rate two-dimensional images were recorded from apical long-axis view, four-chamber view and two-chamber view of left ventricle; then the left ventricular diameter, left atrium diameter, the peak filling velocity of E wave and A wave, E/A ratio, EF and FS were measured. The peak systolic strain of left ventricular segment was measured with two-dimensional strain software. Results Compared with healthy subjects, left ventricular diameter, left atrium diameter, EF and FS of liver cirrhosis patients were not statistically different (P>0.05), but the E/A ratio was lower (P<0.05). The peak systolic strain of most left ventricular segment in liver cirrhosis reduced significantly (P<0.05), except that of base segment of posterior wall, anterior wall, inferior wall, anterior and posterior interventricular septum, as well as middle segment of posterior interventricular septum. Conclusion The heart shape, systolic and diastole function of liver cirrhosis are abnormal. 2D-STI can early and accurately evaluate the systolic function of liver cirrhosis.
