The HPLC-UV-Fluorescence technique and HPLC-UV-MS technique were used to determine fluorescence molecule in gastric juice of patients with malignant gastric cancer,which is identified as tryptophan. Lidocaine was detected in gastric juice of patients who were examined by gastric endoscopy. A method was developed to determine concentration of tryptophan and lidocaine in gastric juice using HPLC-UV technique,in which Kromasil C_(18) column(150 mm×4.6 mm,5μm) and methanol(containing 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid (TFA))-water(containing 0. 1% TFA) as gradient mobile phase were used. The linear relationships were obtained between the concentration of tryptophan in the range of 0.5 - 200 mg/L and its peak area at 278 run with correlation coefficient of 0.9994,and between the concentration of lidocaine in the range of 20 -5000 mg/L and its peak area at 254 nm with correlation coefficient of 0.9992. The limit of detection is 0.15 mg/L for tryptophan and 5 mg/L for lidocaine. The recovery is 70. 8% - 110. 4% for tryptophan and 87. 1% -116.2% for lidocaine. 38 gastric juice samples of patients with malignant gastric disease and 48 gastric juice samples of patients with benign gastric disease were tested and the concentration of tryptophan in those two groups of gastric juice samples was apparently different.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of proximal percutaneous pedicle screw fixation combined with distal open osteotomy for sagittal plane imbalance of adult spinal deformity.Methods From January 2011 to June 2015,23 patients with diagnosis of adult spinal deformity were treated with proximal percutaneous pedicle screw fixation combined with distal open osteotomy,there were 8 males and 15 females,aged from 52 to 67 years old (average,62.1 years old).The operation time,blood loss,drainage and perioperative complications were recorded;standing anteroposterior and lateral radiographs of the whole spine were taken and the following parameters were measured:sagittal vertical axis (SVA),lumbar lordosis(LL),pelvic tilt (PT),sacral slope (SS),pelvic incidence/lumbar lordosis mismatch (PI-LL),the above parameters were compared between preoperation and postoperation.Oswestry disability index (ODI) was used to evaluate the clinical efficacy.Results The mean operation time was 253.9±52.1 min,the mean blood loss and drainage was 1 258.5±272.2 ml and 725.1 ± 135.2 ml.No patient got infected,died or had deep vein thrombosis.All patients were followed up for an average of 21.2 months (range,13-52 m).The SVA was restored from 12.6±1.4 cm to 3.5±0.7 cm.In addition,LL,SS,PT,and PL-LL were improved from 13.5°±2.3°,13.9°±2.3°,29.7°±9.6°,29.5°±13.7° to 38.8°±9.6°,25.5°±5.8°,18.9°±8.2°,7.1°±3.6°.The ODI score decreased from 40.3％±12.5％ to 13.6％±2.57％ at the time of the last follow-up compared with preoperation.Conclusion Proximal percutaneous pedicle screw fixation combined with distal open osteotomy for sagittal plane imbalance of adult spinal deformity could restore the sagittal balance and improve the quality of life.

Objective To establish an osteoporosis model in tree shrews by bilateral ovariectomy.Methods One hundred healthy 6-24 month old female tree shrews were used in this study.The diagnosis and treatment of osteoporo-sis in the model tree shrews was assessed according to the Interpretation of the Clinical Practice Guideines for Primary Oste-oporosis 2011 released by the Chinese Medical Association of Osteoporosis and Bone Mineral Salt Disease Branch.① Ac-cording to the human natural life span, sexual maturation time and peak bone mineral density ( PBMD) and the tree shrew natural life span and sexual maturation time, we estimated the PBMD of tree shrew in the age of months.Six 6-, 12-, 18-and 24-month old tree shrews in each group were randomly taken for measurement of BMD, and compared the differences between groups to verify the PBMD age of tree shrews.②We chose 62 6-month old tree shrews from the rest of tree shrews to measure their BMD to determine the mean and standard deviation of BMD.Then we divided them into study group ( n =32) and control group (n =30).Bilateral ovariectomy was performed in the study group, while omentectomy was done in the control group.BMD was measured at 3, 6, 9, 12 months after the surgery, 6 animals from each group.The animals which met the criteria of guideline were taken for pathological examination.Results ①The PBMD of 6-, 12-, 18-, 24-month old tree shrews was 0.138 ±0.012, 0.143 ±0.010, 0.141 ±0.009, and 0.139 ±0.009) g/cm2 , respectively, showing no significant differences among them (P>0.05).②The mean PBMD of the tree shrews was 0.143 ±0.016 g/cm2 .③In the model groups, the number of tree shrews whose BMD met the criteria of guideline was 0, 5, 4, 5, respec-tively.The pathological examination of the proximal tibia from the model group showed sparse and some disrupted trabecu-lae and enlarged inter-trabecular space.In the control group, the tibia tissues showed normal histology of bone structure and no one tree shrew showed a BMD value which met the criteria of diagnosis of osteoporosis.Conclusions An osteopo-rosis model in tree shrews can be established at 6 months after bilateral ovariectomy, showing similar manifestation of osteo-porosis in postmenopausal women.The success rate of this modeling method is high and the model is stable.

Objective This study is to explore the association between self-differentiation and men-tal health among medical students. Methods Differentiation of self inventory-revised (DSI-R) and univer-sity personality inventory (UPI) were used to measure the self-differentiation and mental health of 526 med-ical students from Grade One to Grade Five at a comprehensive university in Shanghai. Result The mean score of DSI-R was (171.25±19.65). 32.2％ of participants had different levels of mental health prob-lems. Female students got higher score of DSI-R than male students (P=0.007). Statistically significant dif-ferences of medical students' self-differentiation were found among years of school attended (P=0.039). Sta-tistically significant differences of self-differentiation were also found between the first class and the third class of UPI (P<0.001) as well as the second class and the third class of UPI (P=0.004). Ordinal regression analysis indicated that self-differentiation was a risk factor for medical students' mental health (OR=1.036, P=0.000). Conclusion The average score of medical students' self-differentiation was higher than college students of other specialties. But their mental health condition was worse. Medical students with higher self-differentia-tion had worse mental health situation.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of screw-rod fixation and fusion in revision surgery after percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) or percutaneous kyphoplasty(PKP) for osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVFs).Methods:A retrospective case series study was carried out on clinical data of 19 patients treated by revision surgery after PVP or PKP at Zhejiang Ningbo No.6 Hospital from January 2014 to December 2017. There were 5 males and 14 females, with age of (70.7±6.0)years (range, 58-81 years). Injured segment was located at T 9 in 1 patient, T 11 in 3, T 12 in 5, L 1 fracture in 5, L 2 in 2, L 3 in 2 and L 4 in 1. Caused for revision and operation methods were as follows, 5 patients underwent debridement, screw-rod fixation and fusion due to infection, 9 patients underwent osteotomy due to progressive kyphosis, screw-rod fixation and fusion, 5 patients underwent spinal canal decompression, screw-rod fixation and fusion due to neurological dysfunction. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and perioperative complications were recorded. The white blood cell (WBC), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were used to evaluate the control of infection before operation, before discharge and at postoperative 3 months. The changes in Cobb angle were measured before and after operation and at the final follow-up. The American spinal injury association (ASIA) scale, visual analog scale (VAS) and Oswestry disability index (ODI) were evaluated at the final follow-up. Results:All patients were followed up for 24-46 months [(32.7±8.3)months]. The revision operation time was 135-320 minutes [(226.3±75.6)minutes]. The intraoperative blood loss was 350-1 500 ml [(825.5±230.6)ml]. There were 1 patient with poor wound healing, 2 with pulmonary infection, and 2 with hardware loosening. The WBC, ESR and CRP decreased from preoperative (9.2±1.7)×10 9/L, (88.7±19.2)mm/h, (58.7±22.9)mg/L to (7.3±0.9)×10 9/L, (42.5±13.7)mm/h, (37.3±16.3)mg/L before discharge, and (6.6±0.7)×10 9/L, (26.8±9.5)mm/h, (17.8±8.6)mg/L at postoperative 3 months ( P<0.01). The Cobb angle improved from preoperative (29.3±5.2)° to (4.8±1.2)° ofter operation and (7.3±1.6)° at the final follow-up ( P<0.05). The patients with ASIA grade C ( n=2) and grade D ( n=1) improved to grade E, and the patients with ASIA grade C ( n=2) improved to grade D at the final follow-up. Imagines showed good bone fusion in all patients at the last follow-up. The mean VAS decreased from preoperative (7.5±0.8)points to (2.1±0.5)points at the last follow-up ( P<0.05). The ODI decreased from preoperative (60.7±15.2)% to (19.9±5.9)% at the last follow-up ( P<0.05). Conclusion:For patients with OVFs undergoing revision surgery after PVP or PKP, debridement, kyphosis correction, spinal canal decompression combined with screw-rod fixation and fusion can reduce infection, correct kyphotic deformity, improve neurological function, relieve pain and improve quality of life.

Objective:To explore the difference in properties of anterior occipital condyle plate screws compared with common anterior occipitalcervical fusion internal fixation.Methods:A 28-year-old healthy adult male volunteer's CT data of the occiput and neck was selected to establish finite element models：including the normal model，simple artificial vertebral fixation model（special-shaped titanium cage+clival screws），anterior occipital condyle plate and screw fixation model，and clival plate and screw fixation model，then a 50 N gravity and a torque of 1.5 N m were exerted upon the upper surface of the occipital bone to make the model produce flexion and extension，lateral bending and rotation. The motion range，internal fixation stress distribution and occipital bone stress distribution of each model under varying conditions were compared.Results:Under the conditions of flexion，extension，lateral bending and rotation，the range of motion of the normal model was 18.65°，15.35°，9.82° and 34.68°，respectively；that of the simple artificial vertebral fixation model was 3.20°，3.63°，2.94° and 3.92°，respectively；that of the clival plate and screw fixation model was 0.40°，0.50°，0.35° and 0.89°，respectively；that of the anterior occipital condylar plate and screw fixation model was 0.27°，0.33°，0.13° and 0.30°，respectively. Compared with the simple artificial vertebral fixation model，the range of motion of the clival plate and screw fixation model decreased by 87.5%，86.2%，88.1% and 77.3% in flexion，extension，lateral bending and rotation. The range of motion of the anterior occipital condylar plate and screw fixation model decreased by 91.5%，90.1%，95.6% and 92.3%，respectively. Under the conditions of flexion and extension，lateral bending and rotation，the stress peak of the simple artificial vertebral fixation model was 52.3 MPa，51.9 MPa，52.6 MPa，respectively；that of the clival plate and screw fixation was 100.1 MPa，158.1 MPa，170.6 MPa，respectively；that of the anterior occipital condylar plate and screw fixation was 114.2 MPa，62.9 MPa，132.9 MPa，respectively. Under the condition of flexion and extension，lateral bending and rotation，the stress peak of the occipital bone in the simple artificial vertebral body internal fixation model was 52.9 MPa，50.9 MPa and 62.3 MPa，respectively；that of the clival plate and screw fixation model was 19.7 MPa，55.9 MPa and 38.3 MPa，respectively；that of the anterior occipital condylar plate and screw fixation model was 37.8 MPa，15.0 MPa and 16.3 MPa，respectively. The stress in bone near the hypoglossal canal was close to 0 MPa，much smaller than the stress peak in occipital bone.Conclusion:Anterior occipital condylar plate and screw fixation in front of the special-shaped titanium cage can improve the stability of occipitocervical fusion with little effect on the occipital bone and hypoglossal canal or without obvious stress concentration，and hence is a safe and reliable anterior fixation method for upper cervical spine instability.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Ganoderma lucidum preparation on the behaviors,biochemistry,and autoimmunity parameters of mouse models of APP/PS-1 double transgenic Alzheimer's disease(AD).Methods A total of 44 4-month-old APP/PS-1 double transgenic AD mice were randomly divided into AD model group,Aricept group,Ganoderma lucidum middle-dose(LZ-M)group,and Ganoderma lucidum high-dose(LZ-H)group,with 11 mice in each group.In addition,10 4-month-old C57BL/6 mice were used as the control group.Water maze test was conducted to observe the behavior changes,and the protein expressions in brain tissues were detected by Western blot analysis.The autoimmune indicators were detected by indirect immunofluorescence method.Results In the navigation experiment,the time of finding the platform was gradually shortened since the 2day in the control,LZ-H,and LZ-M groups,and the time of searching the platform in the AD model group gradually increased.On the 5day,the time of finding platform was significantly shorter in control group (t=5.607,P=0.000) and LZ-H group(t=2.750,P=0.010)than AD model group.In the space exploration experiment,the number of crossing the target platform(t=2.452,P=0.025)and the residence time in the target quadrant(t=2.530,P=0.020)in AD model group mice was significantly smaller/shorter than those in control group;in addition,the number of crossing the target platform in the AD model group was significantly smaller than that in LZ-H group(t=2.317,P=0.030)and LZ-M group(t=2.443,P=0.030),while the residence time in target quadrant decreased significantly(t=2.770,P=0.020)compared with LZ-H group;the number of crossing through the target platform quadrant(t=2.493,P=0.022)and residence time in the target quadrant(t=2.683,P=0.015)in LZ-H group were significantly higher than in Aricept group.Western blot analysis showed that the expression of ApoA1 in the brain tissues of mice in LZ-H and LZ-M groups were significantly higher than those in AD model group(P<0.01,P<0.05);Aβ-40 expression in LZ-H group was significantly lower than that in AD model group(P<0.05);the expressions of Syt1,ApoE,and ABCA1 in brain tissues of mice in LZ-H group were significantly higher than those in model group(P<0.01,P<0.05).The plasma IgG level in Aricept group(t=30.945,P=0.000),LZ-M group(t=25.639,P=0.000)and LZ-H group(t=4.689,P=0.001)were significantly higher than that in the control group.Conclusion Ganoderma lucidum preparation can improve behavior disorders of AD model mice,promote the expressions of ApoA1,ApoE and Syt1,inhibit the expression of Aβ-40 protein,and improve the autoimmune function.

Objective:To study the early predictive value of urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipoprotein (NGAL) and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) for acute kidney injury (AKI) in neonates with severe asphyxia.Method:From January 2019 to June 2020, neonates with severe asphyxia admitted to our hospital within 6 hours after birth were enrolled in the study. The dynamic changes of urine NGAL and KIM-1 at admission, 24 h, 48 h and 1 w after birth were examined. Neonates were assigned into AKI group and non-AKI group according to the clinical practice guidelines for AKI issued by KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcome). The sensitivity and specificity of NGAL and KIM-1 predicting AKI at different time points were evaluated using ROC curve and area under curve (AUC).Result:According to the diagnostic criteria of neonatal AKI, 9 cases were in the AKI group and 42 cases in the non-AKI group, and the incidence of AKI was 17.6%. Urine NGAL was significantly increased in AKI group at admission and 24 h after birth compared with the non-AKI group [(115.6±75.5) ng/ml vs. (49.8±29.0) ng/ml, (90.7±35.6) ng/ml vs. (55.6±30.7) ng/ml] ( P<0.05). No significant differences existed at 48 h and 1 w after birth between the two groups. At 24 h after birth, urine KIM-1 in the AKI group was significantly higher than the non-AKI group [(808.3±555.3) pg/ml vs. (318.4±234.0) pg/ml, P<0.05] and no significant differences existed between the two groups at admission, 48 h and 1 w after birth. The AUC of NGAL predicting AKI at admission, 24 h, 48 h and 1w after birth were 0.804 (95% CI 0.573~1.000), 0.792 (95% CI 0.580~1.000), 0.732 (95% CI 0.517~0.947) and 0.551(95% CI 0.371~0.730), respectively. The AUC of KIM-1 predicted AKI at admission, 24 h, 48 h and 1 w after birth was 0.860 (95% CI 0.676~1.000), 0.824 (95% CI 0.655~0.993), 0.768 (95% CI 0.622~0.914), 0.622 (95% CI 0.392~0.852), respectively. Conclusion:At admission, 24 h and 48 h after birth, urine NGAL and KIM-1, as kidney injury markers, may predict the occurrence of AKI after severe neonatal asphyxia.

Objective: To investigate the clinicopathologic features of Rasmussen syndrome (RS) and to raise awareness of this rare disease. Methods: Clinicopathologic data of 4 cases of RS were retrospectively analyzed at Beijing Haidian Hospital from 2008 to 2016. Results: The clinical manifestations included epilepsia partialis continua and progressive neurologic deficits in all patients.MRI demonstrated unihemispheric focal cortical atrophy in all cases. The histopathologic changes included variable degrees of lymphocytic infiltrate within the cortex, subarachnoid space and perivascular cuffing.Microglial nodules and neuronophagia were seen. Mild to severe neuronal loss was noted with variable degrees of reactive gliosis. Spongy edema and cavitation were observed in focal cortex. Inflammation involving hippocampus was seen in one case. Three cases were accompanied by focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) Ⅲd. Immunohistochemical staining showed that the infiltrative lymphocytes were positive for CD3, CD8, granzyme B and TIA1 and the proliferating microglial cells were positive for CD68. NeuN positive neurons decreased significantly and reactive astrocytes were GFAP positive. Conclusions Pathologic changes of RS are similar to viral encephalitis and the inflammation is progressive and multifocal involving the hemisphere. The diagnosis of RS relies on pathologic features combined with clinical findings and neuroradiological examinations.
