Objective To study clinical significance of S-100B protein in umbilical cord blood of asphyxial neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy(HIE).Methods Forty-three cases of healthy infants were regarded as control group(group 1).Sixty cases of asphyxial neonates were divided into two groups(44 cases without HIE as group 2;another 16 cases with HIE as group 3).S-100B protein levels in umbilical cord blood of three groups were measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay retrospectively. Results Levels of S-100B protein in group 1,group 2 and group 3 were(1.055?0.356) ?g/L,(1.572?0.533) ?g/L and(2.394?(0.943) ?g/L,) respectively.S-100B protein levels in umbilical cord blood of group 2 and group 3 were significantly higher than that of group 1(t=2.306,7.991 P

Objective To study the different biomechanics surgical effects of posterolateral fusion , the transverse fusion and the interbody fusion. Method Scan CT was followed with preprocess of images. The Mimics , HyperMesh and Geomagic Studio Reverse engineering softwares were used to establish the modles of lumbar fusion , then the finite element computation was conducted by using the Abaqus finite element software. Result The EF of each lumbar modle was established , the EF of the interbody fusionwas rised evidently. After the fusion , the stress of the adjacent lumbar were also rised, among them the stress of the upper adjacent segment in tnterbody fusion was the most in extension and rotation , with statistical significance ( P < 0 . 05 ) . In the antexion the stress of the transverse fusion was the most, and the new type of posterolateral fusion least, three of them all hadstatistical significance (P<0.05). In the lateral flexion, they had no statistical significance (P>0.05). About the under adjacent sengment, in the extension and antexion, the stress of the interbody fusion was the most, and the new type of posterolateral fusion was the least, the three of them all haved statistical significance (P<0.05, respectively). In the rotation and lateral flexion, with no statistical significance (P>0.05). Conclusion After the fusion, the EF of the lumbar and the stress of the lumbar disc are all established, the interbody fusion is most, while the others are lower.

The changes of power and base curve of lens in group B were more significant than that in group A.The decrease of 9 corneal topography parameters between initial visit and last visit was significant statistically(all P

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of conventional 2940 nm Er∶YAG laser and pixel laser combination therapy.Methods From Jan.2010 to Jun.2013,32 cases of different types of superficial scars had been treated with this combination therapy.All patients were treated with the low-power 2940 nm Er∶YAG laser,and then immediately with pixel laser at higher power.The morphological changes of the scar before and after treatment,and adverse reaction were recorded.The satisfaction of patients was collected.Results Based on imaging data,significant efficacy was achieved in 14 cases (43.8％),effective in 12 cases (37.5％),relatively effective in 5 cases (15.6％) and ineffective in 1 case (3.1 ％).The total efficacy rate of combined therapy reached 95.3 ％.Very satisfaction to the treatment was 13 cases (40.6％),satisfaction in 10 cases (31.2％),relative satisfaction in 7 cases (21.9％) and no satisfaction in 2 cases (6.3％).The total satisfactory rate reached 93.8％.The only observed side effect was the erythema reaction at irradiated area.Conclusions The combined therapy of conventional 2940 nm Er∶YAG laser and pixel laser is an uncomplicated and safe way to treat superficial scars with little reverse reaction.

Objective To analyze the differences in the levels of serum adiponectin between premature neonates.and term neonates.To explore the effect of preterm on the level of serum adiponoctin and the mechanism by which prcterm contributes with the serious risk factor of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases in adulthood.Method The serum adiponectin concentration was quan-tified in 30 term neonates and 21 premature neonates hy immunoradiometric assay.Results The concentration of serum adiponeetin was (34.29?7.24) mg/L in premature neonates and(62.47?28.33) mg/L in term neonates. The level of serum adiponetin in pre-mature neonates was significantly lower than that in term neonates ( P

Objective To explore the activity and its possible neural mechanism of brain default mode network by using resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Methods The 20 amnestic MCI patients and 25 healthy controls were included in this study, and all subjects underwent mini-mental state examination (MMSE), auditory verbal learning test (AVLT) and fMRI. The data were analyzed by amplitude of low frequency fluctuation (ALFF), and the enhanced and weakened regions of ALFF were observed and compared in both MCI patients and healthy controls. Results MMSE and AVLT tests showed that the memory function was seriously impaired in MCI patients compared with healthy controls, which is based on the short and long delayed episodic memory impairment (2.4±1.7 vs. 6.6±1.4, t=3.70, P＜0.01; 2.1±1.6 vs. 6.7±1.5, t=4.16, P＜0.01). The resting state fMRI showed that MCI patients had significant decreases of ALFF in hippocampal formation, parahippocampal cortex and lateral temporal cortex as compared with health controls (t=2.58, 2.43 and 1.75, all P＜0.01), which were closely relevant to the episodic memory. And they had significant increases in temporal-parietal joint and inferior parietal lobule (t=3.14 and 2.77, both P＜0.01). Conclusions MCI patients show significant decreased active intensity of some DMN nodes that is related to episodic memory in resting state. Increased active intensity in MCI patients would be some type of compensation.

Objective To explore a better method to repair cervical cicatricle contracture deformity.Methods The cervicai cicatrical contraction deformity was repaird by the cervico-shoulder island skin flap with blood supply crossing and abundant anastomotic branches of the neck-shoulder blood vessels. After removing the cervical scar, the flaps were designed according to the size of the wound to be repaired, and the clinical anatomy of crossing and abundant anastomotic branches of the neck-shoulder blood vessels. The secondary wound of donor site was closed directly if the donor region was small, or closed by skin graft. Results Sixteen patients in this clinic were operated with this method, and venous return dysfunction occurred in 1 case, but blood circulation was improved after treatment. All the flaps survived with good appearance and texture. The extensive flap was created and transferred to the anterior neck by one stage without pre-expansion which met some patients'requirement of repairing cervical cicatricle contracture deformity. Conclusion The cervico-shoulder island skin flap, with abundant blood supply, is a new method to repair cervical cicatricle contracture deformity.
