Objective To investigate the value of early quantified analysis of perinatal white matter injury by cranial ultrasound gray scale measurement. MethodsThe cranial ultrasound exam was performed in 152 newborns with different gestational age0 early after their birth. These newborns were divided into two groups: 104 newborns diagnosed as white matter injury within 7 days after birth were taken as patient group; while 48 newborns who were not were taken as control group. The gray scale values in the trigone of lateral ventricle of white matter were analyzed by medical image analysis system. The newborns in patient group accepted cranial ultrasound exam at one month after birth, the grey scale value and cyst in the white matter were recorded. Three to six months old, the cranial ultrasound exam was repeated to record the change of white matter volume, morphology of lateral ventricle and change of the cysts. When they were 1.5 to 2 years old, the neurological function were quantitatively evaluated with Gesell score, and the results were classified as normal and abnormal.The relationships between gray scale value and neuro-developmental outcome were analyzed with receiver operating characteristic curve.Results During neonatal period, the average gray scale values in severely injured group was 131.72±2.40, higher than that of mildly injured group (116.61±2.48), and which in mildly injury group was higher than that in control group (100.50±1.66) (q=4. 521 and 4. 492, P＜0. 05). It was showed by receiver operating characteristic curve that gray scale value ＞114.37 could help to diagnose white matter injury, with the sensitivity of 0. 721 and the specificity of 0. 854; gray scale value ＞119.80 could help to diagnose severe white matter injury,with the sensitivity of 0. 716 and the specificity of 0. 776.As the gray scale value increased, the incidence of white matter volume decreased and the enlargement of lateral ventricle in the later period of injury increased. Patients with gray scale value ＞ 130 tended to suffer from leucomalacia. During neonatal period, the incidence of abnormal neurodevelopment before 2 years old was 5.0％ in patients with gray scale value ＜ 110, while it was 27.8 ％ in the patients with gray scale value between 110 and 120, 47.8％ in the patients with gray scale value ＞ 120.Conclusions Quantified analysis of ultrasound gray scale value might be promising in early diagnosis of perinatal white matter injury through early judgement of the outcomes of white matter injury and forward neurodevelopment.

Objective To analyze the efficacy of early management of eomplications in patients with multi-ple traumas by applying the damage control theory. Method All total of 116 patients admitted to Wuhan Tongji Hospital between Jan 2006 and Jan 2008 were included in this retrospective study and were classified according to treatment method. Overall, 55 cases underwent damage control operations and 61 cases underwent conventional management. The groups of patients were compared in terms of parameters such as length of operation time, time to resuscitate from shock, lethal triad of death (LTD), complications and treatment outcomes after operation. Results The length of operation time was (67.43±19.52) min, resuscitation time from shock was (6.77±3.16) h and LTD was (11.54±4.10) h in the damage control group, and (163.95±55.41) min, (22.51±11.65) h and (34.55±5.63) h, respectively, in the conventional group, with significant differences between the two groups (P< 0.01). The per capita complication and mortality rates were 227.27 % and 3.64 %, respectively, in the dam-age control group and 363.93 % and 9.84%, respectively, in the conventional group (P <0.05). Couclusions Here, we demonstrated that early management of patients with multiple traumas undergoing operations by apply-ing the damage control theory significantly decreased the operation time, and decreased time to resuscitation from shock and LTD. Furthermore, this approach significantly reduced the incidence of comphcations and the mortality rate of patients with severe multiple traumas.

The effects of Wumeiwan (WMW) on TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 and NF-kappaBp65 in rats with ulcerative colitis (UC) were investigated, the curative effectiveness of WMW vs salicylazosulfapyridine (SASP) was compared, and the action mechanism was analyzed. Fifty-Six Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into four groups (n=14 in each group, with equal ratio of male and female): normal control group, model group, SASP group, and WMW group. Except normal control group, the rat UC models in the remaining three groups were established using the method of 2.4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) immunization and acetic acid local enema. The rats in model group, SASP group, and WMW group were treated with distilled water, SASP, and WMW respectively. The changes in the symptoms and signs were observed, and levels of IL-6, IL-8, TNF-alpha, IL-10 and the expression of NF-kappaBp65 in the colonic tissues were statistically analyzed. The results showed that the levels of IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-alpha were significantly increased (P<0.01), while those of IL-10 significantly reduced (P<0.01) after establishment of rat UC models as compared with normal control group. The levels of IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-alpha were obviously lower, but the level of IL-10 was obviously higher in WMW and SASP groups than those in model group (P<0.05). The levels of IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-alpha were lower, while the level of IL-10 was higher in WMW group than in SASP group. NF-kappaBp65 was expressed negatively or weakly in normal colonic tissues. The positive expression rate of NF-kappaBp65 in WMW group and SASP group was obviously lower than in model group (P<0.01), and there was significant difference between WMW group and SASP group (P<0.05). It was concluded that rat UC model was established successfully. WMW could up-regulate the expression of IL-10, down-regulate the expression of TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-8, and inhibit the NF-kappaBp65 activity to adjust immune function, indicating WMW had better curative effects on UC in rats.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy and eligibility of thumb-tack needle therapy based on meridian differentiation in treating cervical radiculopathy. Methods: A total of 70 patients with cervical radiculopathy were randomized into an observation group and a control group, with 35 cases in each group. Patients in the control group received thumb-tack needle based on conventional point selection, while those in the observation group received thumb-tack needle according to meridian differentiation. The visual analog scale (VAS) and clinical symptom scores in the two groups were compared before and after treatment, and the clinical efficacy of the two treatments was observed. Results: After treatment, the VAS score in both groups dropped significantly (both P<0.01), and the VAS score in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (P<0.01). The clinical symptoms score in both groups dropped significantly (all P<0.01), and the clinical symptoms score in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (P<0.01). The total effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Thumb-tack needle therapy based on meridian differentiation can reduce pain score, improve clinical symptoms in patients with cervical radiculopathy, and produce more significant efficacy compared with conventional thumb-tack needle therapy.
