Objective To evaluate the value of MSCT three-dimensional reconstruction postprocessing technique for operation of Scoliosis Orthomorphia. Methods 18 cases of scoliosis were performed with MSCT to be reconstructed by MPR, VRT. The three-dimensional reconstruction images displayed traverse, coronal and sagittal plane and measures data. Results By measuring data of 18 cases by means of the methods above, all parameters were accurate. Conclusion The three-dimensional reconstruction of MSCT makes up the disadvantages of X-ray. Any retrospective reconstruction can be done to the collected data. So patients can avoid being projected repeatedly and radiation can be reduced. Various parameters of the vertebrae concerning spine, spinal canal and the pedicle plane can be offered, providing reliable reference for pre-operations.

Objective To measure the volume of liver, the volume of mass of liver and the ratio of mass/righe lobe with the Volume Evaluation of MSCT, as a reference of liver function after resection of liver mass. Methods All cases were scanned and reconstructed with MSCT,and the volume of right liver, the volume of mass of right liver and its ratio were obtained with Volume Evaluation of MSCT. Results The method of measuring volume of liver with Volume Evaluation is simple and accurate. Conclusion It can be a important reference before and after resection of liver mass.

OBJECTIVE To explore whether auditory event-related potential (AERP)exists in rat and what its features are,and to set up a set of AERP recording technique. METHODS Ten normal juvenile and 10 adult rats were served as subjects. Each rat was anesthetized and recorded AERP with passive mode. The responsibility of AERPs between juvenile and adult rats was compared. Also,the responsibility of AERP between rats and normal humans was compared. RESULTS AERPs could be evoked with passive recording mode in rats. Although the latencies and amplitudes of juvenile rats were respectively shorter and lower than thoses of adult rats,there were no significance in statistics. The AERP waveform of rats was similar to that of humans essentially. However,compared to the humans,the responsibility and stability of AERP in rats were less satisfied. CONCLUSION A similar AERP exists in rat and human. AERP has a process of development,differentiation and maturation,which may accomplish in early age in rat. Rat can serve as the candidate animal for AERP research.

Objective To study the neuroelectrophysiological responsibility, mechanism and clinical application of auditory event-related potential (AERP) generated in bilateral auditory centers with ipsilateral and contralateral recordings. Methods 14 normal young adults were served as subjects. AERPs, including the responsibility, latencies, amplitudes and waveforms, were simultaneously recorded on ipsilateral and contralateral vertexes and analyzed. Results The latencies and amplitudes of AERPs did not show significicant difference statislically between ipsilateral and contralateral vertexes recordings. However, the responsibility of AERP recorded on ipsilateral vertex was more satisfied than that on contralateral vertex, which exhibited smoothing waves, discriminative wave peaks and little hetero-wave. Conclusion The origins of AERP in bilateral auditory centers were essentially symmetrical. Nevertheless, the responsibility of AERP recorded on ipsilateral vertex was more satisfied than that on contralateral vertex, which was related to the components of auditory subcortex, transmission of auditory nerve to bilateral centers and the contralateral inhibiting effect of medial olivo-cochlear system. The effects of multi-generation and multi-component of AERPs on the clinical application should be considered.

Potassium channels which are targets of antiarrhythmic drugs (class III) play an important role in cardiomyocyte membrane. Recently, with the application of molecular biology techniques , development of cloned potassium channels, successful isolation of human cardiomyocytes and research of single channel, scientists have learnedmore characteristics of kinetics, electrophysiology and pharmacology of potassium channels. All these help them to develop and study new antiarrhythmic drugs.

It is generally accepted that the permeability of the blood-brain barrier in the fetus is higher than in the adult, but its structural basis is still not well known. In this paper, an ultrastructural study was performed on the cerebral capillaries of human fetus aged from 5-9 months and some structural parameters were measured. The results were as follows: (1) the endothelial tight junctions were longer and tortuous, and the clefts within the junctions were found and did not show apparent change in all groups; (2) the plasmalemmal vesicles were larger in 5th month than in the 9th month, and the density of vesicles was low (

Objective To study the toxicity of herbicide,butachlor,to myocardium of Bufo bufo gargarizans. Methods One hundred and sixty Bufo bufo gargarizans were randomly divided into control group,paddy goup,5 times paddy group,10 times paddy group,forty in each group and the exposure was conducted in the experimental containers at the concentrations of 1,5,10 times of the application dosages( 5,10,30 ml/L) ,1/2 of the body of Bufo bufo gargarizans was immersed in the sulotion. After 3,6,9 days of exposure,electrocardiogram was recorded using calculator living creature signal analysis system and the structures of atrium muscle and ventricles muscle were observed with HE stain. Results The structure of myocardial cells of Bufo bufo gargarizans was damaged by butachlor with different levels. Pathological examination showed that the myocardial cells appeared necrosis in different degrees with the increasing doses of butachlor. Butachlor could affact the eletrocardiogram of Bufo bufo gargarizans with obvious dose-time-dependent manner,time-dependent manner was even dominant. Abnormal electrocardiogram was seen,P-R and Q-T changed. Conclusion Butachlor exposure can damage the structure and eletrocardiogram of myocardial cell in Bufo bufo gargarizans.

0.05). Conclusion Thoracoscopic anterior spinal release have comparable clinical results as conventional thoracotomic release for AIS patients.

0.05). Conclusion There exist radiological changes in paravertebral muscles in AIS, which may be secondary to AIS and have potential clinical importance on the evaluation of curve progression.

BACKGROUND:The posterior lumbar interbody fusion is one of the effective methods for the treatment of lumbar and sacral spine diseases. Most surgeons fix the cage by compressing the disc space in order to keep stability and prevent dislodgement. However, some surgeons think that the non-compression technique does favor for increasing of the disc and foraminal height and thus improving the clinical outcomes, and does not increase the risk of fusion shift.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the effects in fixing the cage by the compression and non-compression techniques on posterior lumbar interbody fusion.
METHODS:Data of 64 patients with single-segment lumbar degeneration undergoing posterior lumbar interbody fusion between August 2009 and June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Fusion device was fixed according to compression of intervertebral space. These patients were divided into compression group (n=30) and non-compression group (n=34).
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Curative effects:Lumbar and leg pain visual analogue score,
Oswestry disability index, SF-36 score and the height of intervertebral space, intervertebral foramen height and lumbar lordosis were significantly improved postoperatively in each group compared with preoperatively (P<0.05). The intervertebral space, intervertebral foramen height and lumbar lordosis were significantly better in the non-compression group than in the compression group (P<0.05). (2) Lumbar fusion rate:No significant difference in lumbar fusion rate was detected 6 and 12 months after surgery and during final fol ow-up (P>0.05). (3) Correlation analysis:The increase of the intervertebral space and the height of the intervertebral foramen were not significantly correlated with the improvement of the clinical curative effect (P>0.05). (4) Test results demonstrated that outcomes of the compression technique to fix the cage are equivalent to the non-compression in posterior lumbar interbody fusion. Non-compression is advantageous to increase the intervertebral space and the height of the intervertebral foramen. Both of them are conducive to the recovery of lumbar lordosis, but are not correlated with the increase in clinical curative effect.
