Objective To evaluate the clinical application of intraluminal stent angioplasty(PTRAS) in the treatment of renal arterial stenoses. Methods A retrospective study was done in 28 patients with renal arterial stenoses. Primary renal artery stenting was performed in 28 consecutive patients (36 renal arteries). Blood pressure, serum creatine, the number of anti hypertensive medications were recorded at 1,6,12 month post stent angioplasty respectively. Arterial angiography was also taken 1 year later to evaluate the incidence of restenosis. Results Technical success rate was 100% achiving in all patients without serious complications. Primary successful patenty rate reached 82% (renal artery 86%), secondary successful rate was 89% (renal artery 90%). Systolic and diastolic blood pressure were reduced significantly ( P

Objective To investigate clinical effect of sIgA combined with Jiawei Yuping Feng pulvis in treatment of upper respiratory infection ( URI) in children.Methods 160 children in hospital diagnosed with URI were randomly divided into treatment group and control group.With basic treatment, the control group were treated with Jiawei Yuping Feng pulvis, twice per day, 3 g each time, orally; treatment group on the basis of control group, secretory IgA via nasal drip, 0.3-0.5 mg/( kg? d) , dividing into 6-8 times.The treatment course was 7 days.The total efficiency, improvement of symptoms and adverse reactions were observed and compared.Results The total effective rate of treatment group (96.25%) was significantly higher than control group (85%)(χ2 =5.96, P<0.05).After 7 days of treatment, WBC and NEUT% of treatment group decreased significantly compared with control group ( P <0.05 ) .The fever, sore throat and runny nose, cough and expectoration symptom remission time of treatment group were significantly shorter than control group (P<0.05).Adverse reactions of both groups were lower.Conclusion It is effective to treat URI in children using sIgA combined with Jiawei Yuping Feng pulvis therapy, and it has few adverse reactions.

Objective To assess the effects on volume of uterine and the dominant fibroid by a re-new radiofrequency ablation ( RFA ) on uterine myomas and disemboweling them from uterine after RFA . Methods Three hundred and eight -three patients were treated by RFA and followed up at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months,165 of them by usual RFA , 163 by improved RFA.To them which myomas diameters were >5cm, 55 cases were added by disemboweling the myomas out of the body after one month of improved RFA .But 66 were not disemboweled.The pre-and postoperative uterine and myoma volumes were measured by 3D ul-trasonography .Results The volume of uterine and the dominant fibroid were reduced in usual and im-proved RFA groups , especially in improved group ,but the difference was no significantly ( P >0.05 ) .In the groups of which myomas diameters were >5cm , the median reduction rates of uterine and myoma vol-ume was more significantly in disemboweling group than un -disemboweling one after 3 and 6 months ( P <0.05 , P <0.01 ) .The overall effective rates were 90.90%,93.25%,100%and92.42%respectively in u-sual and improved RFA groups( P >0.05),and in disemboweling and un -disemboweling groups ( P >0.05).But the obvious effective rates have significant difference in disemboweling (81.82%)and un-dis-embowelin(41.94%)group ( P <0.01).Conclusion Disemboweling myomas from uterine after RFA can increase the clinical effects significantly .

Objective To study whether the uremic toxins accumulated long-term in uremia patients may be involved in oxidation of protein by forming advanced oxidative protein products (AOPPs). Methods Malonylaldehyde (MDA), hippuric acid (HA) and p-cresol were used as the representatives of uremic toxins. Human albumin serum (HSA), plasma specimens from normal or uremia patients were incubated respectively with MDA (10 retool/L), HA (20 mmol/L) and p-cresol (10 retool/L) or PBS (20 retool/L, pH 7.4, as control groups) at 37℃ for 30 minutes or 24 hours, respectively. Those indices such as AOPPs, protein thiol groups (Pt-SH) and dityrosine were used as biomarkers of protein injury. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was employed to identify the aggregation and cross-links of modified proteins. Results AOPPs levels in all groups containing poison compounds were significantly increased by 121.5%(P<0.05) compared to that in control groups. Uremic toxins also resulted in over 14.7% loss in Pt-SH (P< 0.05) and 119.2% increment in dityrosine, respectively (P<0.05). Meanwhile, the formation of HMW-AOPPs in a time-dependent manner was observed by HPLC and cross-linked protein levels were significantly increased by 148.45%～333.3% in comparison with control groups. Conclusion Uremic toxins can directly mediate the damage of proteins by inducing the formation of HMW- AOPPs in a time-dependent manner, which is also one of the mechanism of AOPPs production in vivo besides the activation of the myeloperoxidase-H2O2-Cl pathway.

Objective To measure the reliability and validity of the Lam Assessment of Stages of Employment Readiness (LASER) Putonghua version for injured workers, and observe the confidence of return to work on different preparation stages. Methods 85 injured workers with limb fractures were included. The data was obtained through face-to-face structured interview. The test-retest reliability and internal consistency were measured. Factor analysis was used to examine construct validity of the Putonghua version LASER. Results Principle component analysis extracted four factors, which was consistent with the original version of LASER. Intra- class correlation coefficient (ICC) of test-retest ranged 0.27~0.89, whereas the internal consistence among these 4 stages ranged 0.691~0.796. There were significantly differences in confident scores in different stages among 3 different confidence groups. Conclusion The structure validity of Putonghua version of LASER is useful for reflecting the readiness of injured workers' return to work. However, the reliability coefficient is rather low in some of the items, which could be resulted in incorrect judgment of readiness of return to work of injured workers. The further study on items correction and development is apparent.

Neuron is the basic unit of the biological neural system. The Hodgkin-Huxley (HH) model is one of the most realistic neuron models on the electrophysiological characteristic description of neuron. Hardware implementation of neuron could provide new research ideas to clinical treatment of spinal cord injury, bionics and artificial intelligence. Based on the HH model neuron and the DSP Builder technology, in the present study, a single HH model neuron hardware implementation was completed in Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The neuron implemented in FPGA was stimulated by different types of current, the action potential response characteristics were analyzed, and the correlation coefficient between numerical simulation result and hardware implementation result were calculated. The results showed that neuronal action potential response of FPGA was highly consistent with numerical simulation result. This work lays the foundation for hardware implementation of neural network.

Objective To explore the comprehensive approach of rhinoplasty using autologous costal cartilage and e-PTFE,and to observe the outcome and possible complications.Methods A 3-4 cm long costal cartilage was taken out mostly from the 6th or 7th rib and then divided into several parts and shapes.Structural reconstruction of the nasal tip was then done with these costal cartilage parts.Radix augmentation was conducted with e-PTFE.Results From Jan.2013 to Sept.2014,48 patients were treated with this method,all females,aged 22-35 years.36 of them had received rhinoplasty before,12 of them received none.Satisfying aesthetic contouring of the nasal tip and dorsum had been achieved in 45 patients.Deviation of the collumella and nostril asymmetry were found in 3 patients.Among all patients,no such complications as pneumothorax,hemothorax,infection,or hemotoma were observed.The scar on the donor site was not obvious.Conclusions Costal cartilage is sufficient,supportive and easily shapable,when applied to the structural reconstruction of the nasal tip,which can meet the demands of patients who prefer more outstanding and delicate nasal tip contouring.
