Objective Malrotation of intestine with midgut volvulus is a special disease in newbo-rns.It is important of early diagnosis to avoid the risk of intestinal infarct and necrosis.We intended to ex-plore the value of early ultrasonographic diagnosis in malrotation of intestine with midgut volvulus,comparing with upper gastrointestinal imaging.Methods Ultrasonographic features and upper gastrointestinal imaging of 48surgically confirmed malrotation of intestine with midgut volvulus between January 2011and December 2014were retrospectively analyzed.Results All patients were comfirmed by operaion.The rotational degree of midgut volvulus were 90to 720°.In 43of 48patients (89.58%)of malrotation of intestine with midgut volvulus were diagnosed by ultrasonography.The typical ultrasonographic features were called “whirlpool sign”,which was the superior mesenteric vein and the mesentery around the superior mesenteric artery.In 35 of 48(72.92%)patients with malrotation were confirmed by the upper gastrointestinal imaging.The typical sign of the upper gastrointestinal imaging was the helical form of the distal duodenum and proximal jejunum located at middle abdomen.Compared with upper gastrointestinal radiographic examination,ultrasonographic examination had more sensitivity in diagnosis of malrotation of intestine with midgut volvulus (P﹤0.05). Conclusion Ultrasonographic examination have more sensitivity in diagnosis.Noninvasiveness,absence of X-rays,and low costs could make ultrasonographic examination a useful screening test in patients with sus-pected malrotation of intestine with midgut volvulus.“Whirlpool sign”could be considered a specific ultra-sonographic sign in diagnosis of midgut volvulus,which could provide reference for the clinical treatment of malrotation of intestine with midgut volvulus.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of propofol on endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression in thoracic aorta of hypertensive rats.MethodsHealthy SD rats of both sexes weighing 240-280 g were used in this study.Hypertension was induced by subcutaneous deoxycorticosterone 25 mg/kg twice a week for consecutive 7 weeks.Sixty-four hypertensive rats were randomly divided into four groups (n ＝ 16 each):hypertension group (group H),low,medium and high dose propofol group ( groups P1,P2,P3 ).Groups P1,P2 and P3 received infusion of propofol at a rate of 20,30 and 40 mg* kg- 1 · h- 1 for 3 h respectively,while group H received equal volume normal saline instead of propofol.Mean arterial pressure (MAP) was monitored and recorded before,1 h and 3 h after the start of propofol or normal saline infusion.All animals were sacrificed at 3 h of intravenous administration.Blood samples were collected by taking out the eyeballs for determination of serum NO concentrations by nitrate reductase method.The expression of eNOS mRNA,iNOS mBNA was determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction.The expression of eNOS and iNOS protein was determined by Western blot.ResultsCompared to group H,MAP was decreased significantly,the serum NO concentrations were increased significantly,the expression of eNOS mRNA and protein in thoracic aorta was up-regulated,and the expression of iNOS mRNA and protein in thoracic aorta was down-regulated in a dose-dependent manner in groups P1,P2 and P3 ( P < 0.05 or 0.01 ).ConclusionPropofol can down-regulate iNOS expression and up-regudate eNOS expression in endothelial cells of thoracic aorta and promote NO release in hypertensive rats,Which is the mechanism of propofol decreasing pressure.

Objective To investigate influence of amlodipine /atorvastatin on atherosclerosis in the elderly with hypertension and hyperlipidemia.Methods Totally 108 cases with hypertension and hyperlipidemia in our hospital were randomly divided into control group and observation group (n =54 each).The control group received conventional antihypertensive treatment such as diuretics,angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors,calcium antagonists; the observation group received amlodipine and atorvastatin combination tablet as add-on therapy to the above drugs for 6 months.The blood lipid level and carotid artery ultrasound detection results were observed and compared between the two groups after treatment.Results The levels of TC[(4.23 ± 0.79)mmol/L vs.( 5.32 ±1.23)mmol/L],TG[(1.53±0.35) mmol/L vs.(5.32± 1.23) mmol/L],LDL-C [(3.19 ± 0.59)mmol/L vs.(4.07±0.79)mmo1/L]were decreased,while HDL-C [(1.53±0.95)mmol/L vs.(1.32±0.83)mmol/L]were increased in observation group after treatment as compared to control group (all P ＜0.05).After carotid artery ultrasonography,the LN[( 1.61± 0.76) scores vs.( 2.24 ± 0.89) scores ] and IMT [(0.76 ± 0.22)mm vs.(0.98 ± 0.28)mm] levels were lower in observation group after treatment than in control group (P＜0.05).Conclusions Amlodipine/atorvastatin combination can reduce blood lipids and alleviate atherosclerosis.It is suitable for elderly patients with hypertension and hyperlipidemia.

Objective To identify Chinese character writing related cortex (WRC) and its relationship with hand motor cortical areas. Methods Ten native Chinese-speaking, right-hand volunteers were recruited in the study. NTMS mapping was conducted during picture naming task. The WRC were mapped based on nTMS-induced impairment of Chinese character writing. The extent and area of WRC was calculated. The right-hand motor representations were mapped while motor-evoked potentials were produced under nTMS stimulation. EMG data and coordinates of positive stimulus were recorded. The relationship between WRC and hand motor cortex (HMC) was analyzed on the basis of area comparison and distance calculation. Results The cortical areas related to Chinese character writing were mapped successfully in all subjects by nTMS. WRC was primarily centered in left posterior middle frontal gyrus (pMFG) (86%,55/64). The mean WRC area (161.03 mm2 ±62.58mm2) was significantly smaller than the mean HMC area (589.50 mm2±227.34mm2) (P<0.001). The WRC and HMC were not conjoined or overlapped in the dominant hemisphere. The distance between those two was 12.58mm±2.71mm. Conclusions NTMS can provide reliable assistance in mapping WRC areas. The WRC is relatively fixed and centralized in pMFG but is not overlapped with the HMC.

Information-based teaching was applied in the experimental teaching of nuclear protection medicine based on its own features.The teaching content was sent to students as micro-video via an information platform before class for preview;during the class,the teaching was performed in the form of lectures by students and experiments in groups;after class,students were required to submit reports of experimental improvement or innovative experimental design.A comprehensive assessment was performed for preview,classroom operation,question answering in class,and experimental reports.The results of teaching practice showed that this teaching mode can effectively stimulate the students' interests in learning,enhance their research and innovation abilities,and improve the experimental teaching effect of nuclear protection medicine.

Objective To analyze the application value and clinical experience of intraoperative ultrasound in microsurgical resection of supratentorial cavernous malformations.Methods From March 2018 to March 2019,31 patients with supratentorial cavernous malformations were operated with assistance of intraoperative ultrasound in our hospital.Intraoperative ultrasound could clearly show the locations and sizes of the lesions,and relations of lesions with surrounding structures to choose appropriate surgical routes.The degrees of resection were judged and complications were recorded.The patients were followed up for 3-6 months,and modified Rankin scale (mRS) was used to evaluate the prognoses.Results In these 31 patients,35 cavernous hemangiomas were diagnosed by MR imaging before surgery;33 lesions were removed surgically,and the other two lesions located in the contralateral side of the operative field were not removed.The accuracy of intraoperative ultrasound guiding the lesions was up to 100％.There were no postoperative infections or deaths.During follow-up,mRS score of 28 patients was 0;the other 3 patients with postoperative neurological impairment recovered partially during follow-up.Conclusion With the help of real-time monitoring of intraoperative ultrasound and location technique of small pieces of hemostatic yam,patients with supratentorial cavernous malformations could acquire satisfactory prognosis through meticulous microsurgery.
