Objective To develop a scientific and objective risk factors evaluation index system for peri-operative hypothermia. Methods Based on literature review, the risk factors evaluation index system for peri-operative hypothermia was screened and identified by Delphi method,and the weight was identified through Hierarchy analysis. Results In two rounds of surveys, the rates of questionnaire retrieval were 94.4% and 100.0%, respectively. The authoritative coefficients were 0.83 and 0.84, the coordination coefficients were 0.586 and 0.601, respectively. The index system consisted of 2 first-level indexes and 21 second-level indexes. Conclusions A reliable and scientific risk factors evaluation index system for peri-operative hypothermia was developed. It can be utilized to provide theoretical foundation for the prevention of peri-operative hypothermia.

The spontaneous otoacoustic emissions(SOAEs) and spontaneous cochlear microphone potential (SCM) were observed in 8 guinea pigs from 168 normal guinea pigs. Second and third harmonics of SOAE had been observed in three animals. The distortion product otoacoustic emissions(2f1-f2) were created with an external tone as f2 and the SOAE as f 1 in 6 animals , SOAE were suppressed by contralateral broadband noise stimulation and enhanced by strychnine . The suppression tuning curve was similar to the two tone suppression. The results indicate that SOAE and SCM are spontaneous electromotile vibration of outer hair cells. The model of spontaneous vibration and characteristic of audiology is the same as that of hearing of external tone and it can be modulated by efferent system.

Two cases of labyrinthine ossification were founded in temporal bone exploration and in cochlear implantation. One was caused by temporal bone fracture, the other had bilateral profound sensorineural hearing loss but the reason for labyrinthine ossification was unknown. In this case,unilateral total labyrinthine ossification was not confirmed in preoperative CT scan.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of endolymphatic sac surgery for Meniere's disease,and compare the effects of endolymphatic sac decompression with endolymphatic-mastoid shunting.Method:Twelve patients(13 ears)undergoing endolymphatic-mastoid shunting and eleven patients (11 ears) undergoing endolymphatic sac decompression were retrospectively compared for hearing results and vertigo controlled rates.All of them have been followed up for more than two years after surgery.Result:According to Chinese Meniere's disease diagnosis and curative effect standard evaluation criteria pubilished in 2006,for vertigo symptom of endolymphaticmastoid shunting group,9 cases(69.2%) achieved grade A(eompletely controlled),4 cases (30. 8%) achieved grade B(fundamentally controlled).There were 8 cases(72.7%)with grade A, 2 cases (18.2%)with grade B and one case(90% ) with grade C among 11 patients who received endolymphatic sac decompression.There was not statistically significant differences in postoperative speech pure tone average and vertigo controlled rate between the two groups.Conslnsion:Endolymphatic sac decompression and endolymphatic-mastoid shunting are effective management with less complication for intractable Meniere's disease.

Objective To investigate the effects of specific methyltransferase inhibitor of 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-CdR) on the promoter methylation of E-cadherin (E-cad) gene, protein expression in human cervical cancer SiHa cells, and the cell biological behavior. Methods SiHa cells were treated with 5-Aza-CdR at different concentrations. Quantitative methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (QMSP) was used to examine CpG island promoter methylation level of E-cad gene before and after treatment. The experimental group of the optimum concentration was selected. The expression levels of E-cad mRNA and its protein in SiHa cells line were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and western blot respectively. Cell adhesion test was used to measure cell adhesion ability and Transwell test was used to detect cell invasion and migration ability. Results E-cad gene promoter methylation index (PMR) of 5-Aza-CdR at 0, 1, 5, 10, 15 μmol/L level was (53.0 ±1.6) %, (50.0 ±1.2) %, (44.0 ±1.4) %, (27.0 ±1.7) %, (15.0±8.2) %respectively, and PMR value decreased gradually with the increase of 5-Aza-CdR concentration. Furthermore, PMR value was the lowest at 15μmol/L, and the difference was statistically significant compared with other 4 groups (P< 0.01). Then 5-Aza-CdR at 15 μmol/L was selected as the following experimental concentration. The expression of E-cad mRNA and its protein in the 5-Aza-CdR group were significantly higher than those in the blank control group (P<0.05). The rates of cell adhesion , cell invasion inhibition and migration inhibition were all increased with significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusions 5-Aza-CdR can upregulate E-cad mRNA and protein expression level in cervical cancer SiHa cells, reduce cell invasion and migration ability, and promote the adhesion of SiHa cells, which has reversed hypermethylation in the promoter region of E-cad gene partly.

Malignant ovariangerm cell tumors (MOGCTs) is second only to epithelial tumor which often occur in young women and young women,with high malignancy and high mortality.Effective treatment is particularly important in clinical practice.The prognosis is improved for valid chemotherapy scheme foun ded in recent years.Surgery still play a crucial role in the therapy of MOGCTs no matter for the primary operation or re-operation.Since the 70s,the comprehensive surgical staging (CSS) has improved the prognosis in patients with malignant ovarian cell tumors.Retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy is an integral part of the complete staging in MOGCT.The paper discusses various aspects of the clinical value of comprehensive surgical staging in MOGCTs.

Objective:To explore the effect of junctional plakoglobin (JUP) on the radiotherapy-resistant cervical cancer cells in vitro.Methods:Cervical cancer cell lines SiHa, HeLa and Me-180 were irradiated with 1 Gy of 60Co radioactive rays for 3 times every week to induce the radiotherapy resistance of cells which obtained the radiotherapy-resistant cell lines SiHaIR, HeLaIR and Me-180IR. The corresponding wild-type cell lines were served as control groups. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and Western blot were used to detect the expressions of JUP mRNA and protein in the 6 groups of cells. The cell scratch test was used to detect the cell migration ability. Results:The relative expressions of JUP mRNA in SiHa and SiHaIR groups, HeLa and HeLaIR groups and Me-180 and Me-180IR groups were the relative expressions of JUP protein were 1.74±0.06 and 0.48±0.02 ( t = 12.327, P < 0.01), 1.77±0.06 and 0.28±0.03 ( t = 14.698, P < 0.01), 2.276±0.061 and 0.780±0.011 ( t = 7.367, P < 0.01); 2.36±0.03 and 0.55±0.02 ( t = 9.245, P < 0.01), 2.13±0.02 and 0.23±0.01 ( t = 15.643, P < 0.01), 1.96±0.05 and 0.73±0.02 ( t = 5.826, P < 0.01). When culturing the cells for 12, 24, and 48 h after scratching, the migration rates in 3 groups of radiotherapy-resistant cell lines were increased compared with the corresponding wild-type cell lines, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Conclusion:The expressions of JUP in radiotherapy-resistant cervical cancer cell lines are lower than those in wild-type cell lines, and the migration ability of radiotherapy-resistant cells is enhanced.

Objective:To investigate the interfering factors in the determination of creatinine(Cr) using the American Clinical Laboratory Standards Association (CLSI) EP7-A3 document.Methods:According to the CLSI EP7-A3 document, fresh serum (no hemolysis, lipemia, and jaundice) was used on the day of the experiment and confirmed the interfering substances through the pairing difference experiment and the point-to-point analysis method was used in the dose effect experiment to clarify the difference of interfering substances.Results:Triglyceride (16.94 mmol/L), dobutamine hydrochloride (4.01 μmol/L), ascorbic acid (298 μmol/L) did not interfere with the determination of Cr.
