Combining abdominal regional anatomy with clinical knowledge, particularly with the acute abdomen and the abdominal surgery can raise the students’ interest and enthusiasm in the study, and raise the quality of teaching. It also can lay a solid foundation and construct a convenient bridge for the students' studying clinical subjects and working at the clinical work in future.

OBJECTIVETo explore the relationship between continuous thrombocytopenia and sepsis in patients with severe burns.

METHODSClinical data of 148 severely burned patients admitted to our,two burn centers from January 2007 to December 2011 and conforming to the study criteria were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were divided into sepsis group (n =44) and non-sepsis group (n = 104) according to the presence or absence of sepsis within post burn day (PBD) 30. The data of age, gender, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, fluid infusion volume within post burn hour (PBH) 24, plasma concentration of calcium ion on PBD 1, plasma concentration of albumin on PBD 1, platelet count on PBD 1, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE) II score on admission, the presence or absence of hypovolemic shock or inhalation injury on admission, the presence or absence of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) within PBH 48, operation or no operation within PBD 3, thrombocytopenia duration within PBD 10, and mortality were statistically compared between two groups to screen the independent risk factors of sepsis. Data were processed with t test, chi-square test, single factor Logistic regression analysis, and multi-factor Logistic regression analysis.

RESULTSBetween two groups, there were statistically significant differences in total burn area, full-thickness burn area, plasma concentration of calcium ion on PBD 1, plasma concentration of albumin on PBD 1, APACHE II score on admission, presence or absence of hypovolem- ic shock on admission, presence or absence of inhalation injury on admission, presence or absence of DIC within PBH 48, and mortality (with t values from 2.433 to 4.082, χ2 values from 8. 818 to 31.528, P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Furthermore, the duration of thrombocytopenia within PBD 10 in sepsis group was (5.2 ± 2.4) d, which was significantly longer than that in non-sepsis group [(2.9 ± 1.9) d, t =6. 189, P <0.01]. There were no statistically significant differences in the other indexes between two groups (with t values from 0.971 to 1. 250, χ2 values respectively 0. 054 and 1.529, P values above 0.05). Single factor and multi-factor Logistic regression analysis indicated that APACHE II score on admission and duration of thrombocytopenia within PBD 10 were closely related to occurrence of sepsis (with odds ratio respectively 1. 140 and 1.569, P values below 0.01).

CONCLUSIONSDuration of thrombocytopenia within PBD 10 is one of the risk factors for sepsis in severely burned patients, which can reflect pathophysiological changes in the body, thus providing predictive value for the occurrence of sepsis.

Objective To investigate reasonable surgical approaches for lower spine injuries.Methods The study involved 174 patients with lower cervical spine injuries treated with anterior approaches, posterior approaches, or anterior-posterior approaches in our hospital from August 2005 to September 2009. American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) grading system was used to evaluate the surgical outcome. Results All patients were followed up for average 30 months (6-55 months), which showed that bone union was achieved in 169 patients, with no breakage, loosening or displacement of the internal fixators. There were five deaths. The ASIA grades of 125 patients were improved by 1 or 2 levels ( 1.12levels on average), with an improvement rate of 71.3%. Conclusion Comprehensive and accurate preoperative diagnosis is the basis for choose of correct surgical approaches for lower spine injury. Early and correct surgery is essential for a good prognosis.

[Objective]To evaluate the clinical value of surgical treatment of multiple thoracolumbar spinal fractures by pedicle screw/rod Instrumentation system.[Method]Ninteen cases of male 14 and femal 5 of multiple injuries involving thoracic and lumbar spine were surgically treated through anterior approach by open reduction,selective vertebral canal decompression,internal fixation with pedicle screw/Rod spine instrumentation,and followed by anterior lateral bone graft fusion according to complex classification system 19 cases,Ba.m1T_(11) 1 cases,Ba.m.p2T_(11) 2 cases,Ba.m1T_(12) 1 cases,Ba.m.p2T_(12) 1cases,Ba.m.p3T_(12) 1cases,Ba.m1_L 4 cases,Ba.m.p2L_1 3cases,Fa.m.p3(T_(12),L_1) 2cases,Sa.m.p3L_2 1cases,Ba.m.p1L_2 1 cases.[Result]All cases were followed up form 6 to 15 months averageing 10.5 months.No implant failure and late kyphosis deformity was observed.The average vertebra height was improved from preoperative 48.14% to postoperative 92.14%.The postoperative neurological function in two cases of complete spina lcord injuries and 11 incomplete spina lcord injuries were improved according to JOA criterion.Astable bone fusion according to radiological criteria was achieved in call cases postoperatively,and progressive compression did not occur.[Conclusion]Pedicle screw/rod instrumentation system can achieve effective reduction for the fractured vertebrae and simultaneously restore spine stability on the basis of adequate vertebral canal decompression.Posterior spine instrumentation is an ideal choice for surgical treatment of thoracolumbar unstable fractures with or without spinal cord dysfunction.

AIM: To immediately observe the complication of corneal flap after LASIK surgery.
METHODS:A retrospective case series were studies. Totally 2 040 cases ( 4 080 eyes ) from January 2010 to October 2012 in our hospital were collected, the corneal flap was observed using lamp microscope after LASIK within 30min. Corneal flap dislocation, corneal flap strial and intraface debris were examined after operation, the effective treatment and controlled measure should be taken for these complications.
RESULTS: Postoperative complications were corneal flap dislocation 102 eyes (2. 5%), corneal flapstriae 95 eyes (2. 33%), interface debris 105 eyes (2.57%). No failure case was seen. There had no corneal flap-related complications, which seriously impact the visual quality after the surgery.
CONCLUSION: Carefully postoperative examination at the first - time is an effective way to manage some complications of post - LASIK. Thus promoting the diagnosis and treatment of post-LASIK complications.

Objective To probe into the significance and role of double testing of blood for virus markers.Methods The data on the results of routine blood testing at some blood centers in China from July to December,1999 were gathered and analysed.The blood donors with inconsistent results during the double testing were followed up and their blood samples were collected at least half a year later.Nucleic acid amplification testing(NAT) was performed on the samples.Results Only 0.63% of the donors showed inconsistent results during the double testing.Most of the positive results were false positive.Conclusion The double testing currently implemented does not help significantly improve the quality of the blood supply.It is important to enhance blood safety further by improvement of quality of the reagents and introduction of NAT.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of rehabilitation on fractures around knee treated with external fixation.Methods48 cases with the fractures around knee who accepted early rehabilitation after external fixation had been observed for 0.5～4 years.ResultsAll the cases came up to clinical healing standards within 7 months. According to Kolmert's standard, the rate of fine and good was 89.6%.ConclusionThere was satisfactory outcome treating fractures around knee with external fixation. Early rehabilitation is important to avoid the knee joint rigor.

Deconstruction of lignocellulosic plant cell walls to fermentable sugars by biochemical means is impeded by several poorly understood ultrastructural and chemical barriers. Pretreatment is an essential step by altering the morphological and compositional characteristics of biomass to enhance the sugar release during enzymatic hydrolysis. Therefore, getting insight into this field is necessary to improve the conversion of biomass into biofuels. In this review, we highlight our recent understanding on the impact of various promising pretreatments on biomass, with emphasis on the topochemical and ultrastructural changes of plant cell walls that are related to the reduction of recalcitrance and the consequence of saccharification. It will lend support to the scientific research and development with respect to biomass conversion.
