Cervical artificial disc replacement (CADR) as a new method for the treatment of cervical spondylosis, is becoming a basic and clinical research. Compared with the anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), the biggest difference of CADR lies in the reconstruction of the cervical vertebra height and physiological curvature, retaining the spinal physiological function maximally and reducing the degenerative changes in adjacent segments. A large number of clinical investigation have suggested that ACDR can become an operation method to replace the ACDF. However, the complications and the problems of prosthesis itself are gradually exposed, such as that the prosthesis, can't completely simulate the biological effects of human intervertebral disc, the other factors and including the operation methods and prosthesis itself. At the same time, the problem that how to prevent complications and problems is required to be solved. Whether, the effect of CADR on the activity of the operation segment, and the prevention of adjacent segment degeneration can be guaranteed for a long time has drawn more and more attention from scholars.

Objective: To prepare exenatide-loaded poly (lactic-co-glycolicacid)(PLGA) microspheres and to evaluate their release behavior in vitro. Methods: Exenatide-loaded PLGA microspheres were prepared by W/O/O method using PLGA as vectors. An HPLC approach was established to determine the content and in vitro cumulative release. The physicochemical characteristics of microspheres, including the mean diameter, morphology, drug entrapment efficiency and loading efficiency, were evaluated. Results: The prepared microspheres were well-shaped, with a mean diameter of (51.2±1.97) μm. The drug loading was (4.50±0.13)% and the encapsulation efficiency was (96.5±2.68)%. The first day burst release was (13.19 ± 1.39)% and the in vitro 28-day-cumulative-release was (88.6 ± 0.73)%. Conclusion: The W/O/O method is stable, controllable, and repeatable for preparing exenatide-loaded microspheres using biodegradable polymers PLGA as the vector; the microspheres yield a one-month continuous release and have a bright future in treatment of diabetes mellitus.

Objective To study the preventive effect of recombinant streptokinase (r-SK) on cerebral vasospasm (CVS) after subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH).Methods Rabbit models of SAH were made by double blood injection into cisterna magna. A tube was inserted into lateral ventricle after 24 h. In group treating one, 1.25 mg r-SK were injected into lateral ventricle, and the tube was opened for drainage after closed 6 h, and then 6 h later, injection, closed pipe and drainage were recycled for another 2 times. In the group SAH , 1 ml normal saline (NS) was injected into lateral ventricle, and then the way was the same as group treating one. In group treating two, 3.75 mg r-SK were injected for once. 6 h, 12 h ,1 d, 3 d, 5 d and 7 d later, 1 ml CSF was drained from the lateral ventricle in groups SAH , treating one and treating two ,respectively. The level of OxyHb in CSF was detected, angiograms of basilar artery(BA) were performed before and after 7 d of SAH,calculation the rate of calibre and histological examinations were also performed. Results (1)The level of OxyHb in CSF of group SAH was increased gradually while decreased in groups treating one and treating two. Compared with group SAH, the levels of OxyHb were significant lower in groups treating one and treating two at 1～7 d after administration(P

Objective To study the effect of hospital disposal manners after workplace violence in hos-pital on organizational commitment and turnover intention among the head nurses. Methods Self-made questionnaire about workplace violence in hospital and general condition, organizational commitment question-naire and turnover intention questionnaire were conducted in 122 head nurses who had suffered hospital vio-lence in recent years from all level hospitals of Fujian province. Results The scores of affective commitment and normative commitment of organizational commitment and turnover intention showed significant difference be-tween the groups who suffered positive disposal and who suffered negative interference by the hospital after the violence events (P<0.05), but aggregate score of organizational commitment and the scores of continuance commitment showed no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Hospital disposal manners af-ter the hospital violence and hospital grade were influence factors on turnover intention among the head nurses.Hospital grade was also an influence factor on organizational commitment among the head nurses. Conclu-sions Hospital positive disposal means after the hospital violence on head nurse help to ameliorate organiza-tional commitment and reduce turnover intention among the head nurses.

Objective To survey changes and the significance of phospholipase A2(PLA2) on brain tissue of SD rat in acute pancreatitis. Methods With retrograde injection of 3% taurocholate sodium into pancreatic and biliary duct, rat model of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) was made,and it included four groups: the control group, the sham-operation group, the SAP group and the PLA2 inhibitor-treated group of SAP. Serum amylases, PLA2 and PLA2 in brain tissue were measured and the brain tissue changes were observed. Results There were no significant difference in serum amylases, PLA2 and PLA2 in brain tissue between the sham-operation and the control groups; the levels of serum amylases, PLA2 and PLA2 in brain tissue in the SAP group were higher than those in the control. In the SAP group expansion and hemorrhage of meninges, intracephalic arteriolar hyperemia, in meninges and cephalic-parenchyma infiltration of inflammatory cells and interval broaden were observed, significant differences were found between two groups.Compared with the SAP group, the level of serum amylase, PLA2 and PLA2 in brain tissue were reduced significantly in the treatment group of SAP. Pathological damages in the treatment group were significantly reduced when compared with the SAP group. Conclusion PLA2 might play an important role in brain tissue damages in severe acute pancreatitis.

Objective To investigate whether intraoperative hypotension was associated with postoperative delirium in older patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery with prospective cohort study.Methods Study subjects were patients,＞ 65 years of age,undergoing laparoscopic surgery,who were enrolled in an ongoing prospective observational study of the pathophysiology of postoperative delirium.Intraoperative blood pressure was measured,and predefined criteria were used to define hypotension.Delirium was measured by the Confusion Assessment Method on the first two postoperative days.Data were analyzed with t-test,two-sample proportion test,and ordered logistic regression muhivariable model,including correction for multiple comparison.Results Data from 213 patients with a mean age of 73.6 years (SD 6.1) were studied.Of these 63 (29.6％) developed delirium on day 1 and 61 (28.6％) on day 2.Relative hypotension (decreases by 20％,30％,or 40％) or absolute hypotension [mean arterial pressure (MAP) ＜ 50mmHg] were not significantly associated with postoperative delirium,nor was the duration of hypotension (MAP ＜ 50 mmHg).Conversely,intraoperative blood pressure variance was significantly associated with postoperative delirium.Conclusions These results showed that increased blood pressure fluctuation,not absolute or relative hypotension,was predictive of postoperative delirium.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of TanshinoneⅡA sodium sulfonate injection on levels of P-selectin,glial fi-brillary acidic protein (GFAP),vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and neurological function in patients with acute cere-bral infarction. METHODS:A total of 114 patients with acute cerebral infarction selected from Lianyungang First People's Hospi-tal during Apr. 2013-Apr. 2016 were divided into control group and observation group according to random number table,with 57 cases in each group. Control group was given routine treatment. Observation group was additionally given Tanshinone ⅡA sodium sulfonate injection 40 mg 0.9％ sodium chlonride injection 250 mL,ivgtt,qd. A treatment course lasted for 7 d,and both received 2 courses of treatment. NIHSS scores,the levels of serum P-selectin,GFAP and VEGF were compared between 2 groups before treatment and after 7,14 d of treatment. The occurrence of ADR was also compared. RESULTS:Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in above indexes between 2 groups(P>0.05). Compared to before treatment,NIHSS score,the levels of se-rum P-selectin and GFAP in 2 groups were decreased significantly after 7,14 d of treatment,while the serum level of VEGF was increased significantly. These indexes of 2 groups after 14 d of treatment were significantly better than 7 d of treatment,except for NIHSS score. Above indexes of observation group was significantly better than those of control group during corresponding period, with statistical significance (P<0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:For acute cerebral infarction, Tanshinone ⅡA sodium sulfonate injection can significantly reduce the levels of serum P-selectin and GFAP,improve VEGF level and promote the recovery of neurological damage with good safety.
