Objective To investigate advantages and disadvantages of endoscopic thyroidectomy.Methods A total of 61 consecutive patients with thyroid diseases from December 2003 to August 2004 in this hospital were freely divided into two groups: the Endoscopic Group(30 patients) and the Open Group(31 patients).The operating time,blood loss,hospital stay,postoperative pain assessment,jugular sensation 3 months after operation, swallowing function,and cosmetic outcomes between the two groups were compared.Results The operating time in the Open Group was significantly shorter than that in the Endoscopic Group(78?34 min vs 126?53 min;t=4.125,P=0.000).The intraoperative blood loss was less in the Endoscopic Group(20?13 ml) than in the Open Group(34?19 ml)(t=-3.313,P=0.002).The postoperative pain in the Endoscopic Group was slighter than that in the Open Group 24 and 48 hours after operation(t=3.255,P=0.002;t=-2.598,P=0.012).Three months after operation,jugular hypesthesia and discomfort at swallowing occurred in 1 and 2 patients in the Endoscopic Group,respectively,whereas jugular hypesthesia or paresthesia occurred in 11 patients(?~2=10.594,P=0.001) and discomfort at swallowing happened in 9 patients((?~2=5.773),P=0.016) in the Open Group.All patients in the Endoscopic Group were satisfied with the cosmetic results,but 19 patients in the Open Group complained of unsatisfactory cosmetic outcomes(?~2=52.141,P=0.000).Conclusions Endoscopic thyroidectomy gives little blood loss,mild postoperative pain,and good cosmetic results,being a feasible and safe procedure.

To investigate different effects of fiscal health expenditure, household spending on health and social health expenditure on narrowing the gap between urban and rural health resource allocation. Methods: With the relevant data of China’ s medical and health through 1985-2011 years, taking methodology of the state space model to estimate the varying-time elasticity of different types of expenditures on urban and rural health resource allocation gap. Results: For narrowing the gap, household health expenditure played the leading role, fiscal health expenditure played smaller role and the social health expenditure played the supplementary role; the elastic of different health expenditure proportion was fluctuated before 2002, which became stable after 2002; it is easy to improve the “hard conditions” rather than the “soft conditions” . Conclusion: To accelerate the process of urban and rural medical security system integration, it is inevitable to establish an efficient configuration mechanism for urban and rural health expense, balanced develop urban and rural medical insurance system and scientifically guide social health investment.

BACKGROUND:Mesenchymal stem cel s as potential seeded cel s have been widely used in tissue engineering and clinic therapy;thus, the precise, safe, effective isolation of mesenchymal stem cel s is the particular important premise to build culture system.
OBJECTIVE:To review the methods of isolating mesenchymal stem cel s and to compare the merit and demerit of different methods, thereby providing theoretical basis for safe and high-effective isolation of mesenchymal stem cel s.
METHODS:A computer-based online research of CNKI and PubMed databases was performed to col ect articles, which included reviews, clinical trials and experiments, published between 1965 and 2014 with the key words of“mesenchymal stem cel s (MSCs), isolation methods”in Chinese and English. A total of 52 articles were included according inclusion and exclusion criteria
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The whole bone marrow culture method can derive a mass of mesenchymal stem cel s, which need to be purified. (2) The density gradient centrifugation method which uses the media with the density of 1.073 g/mL can be used to harvest more purified cel s. (3) The tissue digestion method is suitable for digestion and isolation of adipose tissue and umbilical cord tissue. Type II col agenase digestion is better, but they are both limited by a high demand for operative techniques. (4) Immunomagnetic bead separation is appropriate to study the biological characteristics of a kind of subpopulation of mesenchymal stem cel s which express special surface markers. (5) The combination method is also an optimal way. (6) Some new methods limited by few dates require further studies.

BACKGROUND:In previous studies, it is satisfied to sorting bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels based on natural sedimentation combined with low permeation. Then, based on particle hydromechanics theory, the settling velocity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels in culture liquid is calculated. A simple and easy method of separation, purification and proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels is established by natural sedimentation velocity. OBJECTIVE:To explore the feasibility of sorting bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels by natural sedimentation velocity method. METHODS:The density interval of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stemcels (ρ1) was determined by density gradient centrifugation method. The diameter of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels (d) was measured by scanning electron microscope. The density of culture liquid (ρ2) was measured by liquid density meter. The viscosity of the culture liquid (μ) was measured by viscosity meter. The settling velocity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels (Vt) was derived from the above four numerical values with the appropriate formula. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels were sorted from bone marrow tissue by natural sedimentation velocity method. Cel proliferation, purity and differentiation were observed. Meanwhile, the primary culture time of three different cel sorting methods was recorded; the colony formation rate of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels was determined. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The diameter of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels was (20.37±4.58) μm, and the setting velocity of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels in the culture liquid was 50-55 mm/h. (2) Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels could be successfuly isolated from bone marrow tissue of rabbits by the natural sedimentation velocity method, which could be induced into osteoblasts and adipocytes. (3) The natural sedimentation velocity group cost less time than the other two density gradient centrifugation groups in the primary culture stage. The colony formation rate of the natural sedimentation velocity group was higher than that of the other two groups. (4) Natural sedimentation velocity method did not impose any intervention measures for sorting cels, which maybe maximaly maintain cel viability and biological characteristics. The whole separation process was simple and safe, which may have little damage to the cels.

Objective To study the factors related to the infection induced by internal jugular catheterization and femoral vein catheterization.Methods Bacterial culture was conducted for samples collected from the outer section of catheters,the skin around the catheters and the puncture sites during different stages of the catheterization as well as the cathetor blood before removal and the catheter tips after removal in 75 cages after deep vein catheterization from March to August,2008.Statistic analysis was made on positive results.Results The positive rate of the bacterial culture in femoral vein group was obviously higher than the internal jugular group.Rank correlation analysis indicated:the positive rate of the bacterial culture for the puncture site was highly correlated with that for the outer section of the catheters and the skin around the catheters;and the catheter blood(at the tip)was in low positive correlation with that ofthe puncture site and the skin around catheters.And the positive rate apparently rose on the 3～7th days after the catheterization.Conclusions The catheter-related infection after CVC was closely correlated with the outer section of the catheters,the bacterial pollution to the akin around the catheters and different stages of the catheterization in addition to catheterizing location.It is suggested that nurses should choose proper catheterizing position according to different purposes while paying attention to the nursing work for the puncturing part and during the stage with hish risk of infection so as to reduce the occurrence of catheter-related infection.
