Objective To investigate the changes of serum and urine fluorion organic fluoride poisoning by inhaling, and to probe into the clinical application value of concentrations in different degrees and at different time in patients with acute evaluating the sertm and urine fluorion concentration in acute organic fluoride poisoning by inhaling. Method A study was carried out in 23 patients, who suffered from acute organic fluoride poisoning by inhaling and were admitted Zhejiang Quhua Hospital, from December 2000 to December 2008. According to the occupational acute organic fluoride poisoning diagnostic criteria(GBZ66-2002),23 patients were divided into mild poisoning group,moderate poisoning group and severe poisoning group. Serum and urine fluorion concentration of patients at 1,2,3,4,5 d after poisoning were measured by using Ion-Selective Electrodes. Fluorion concentration of 10 staffs of Fluorine chemical company was also measured at the same period as the control group. The values of serum and urine fluorion concentration were analyzed. Differences in serum and urine fluorion concentration between groups at different time points were compared by repeated measures ANOVA and variability were deemed as statistical significance when P < 0.05. Results Compared with mild poisoning group, there was no statistically significant difference ( P > 0.05) in serum and urine fluorion concentration at the same time point in 1 to 5 days after poisoning in moderate poisoning group, but there was statistically significant differences ( P < 0.05 or P <0.01) in severe poisoning group. Compared with moderate poisoning group, there was statistically significant difference ( P < 0.05) in serum and urine fluorion concentration at the same time point in 1 to 5 days after poisoning in severe poisoning group. Serum fluorion concentration in 1 to 5 days after poisoning in each poisoning groupswere statistically higher than those in control group ( P < 0.05), but there was statistically significant elevation ( P< 0.05) in urine fluorion concentration only in 1 day in mild poisoning group, in 1 to 3 days in moderate poisoning groups, in 1 to 5 days in severe poisoning group. Conclusions Serum fluorion concentration can be used as the severity index of diagnosis and determine the extent in 5 days after acute organic fluoride poisoning by inhaling,and urine fluorion concentration can also be used as diagnostic indicators of intoxication, but only in earlier stage or severe poisoning.

Objective Congenital dislocation of the patella is rare and produces varying degrees of knee disability with the growth of the child. It should be managed as soon as the diagnosis is made. The purpose of this paper is to describe the procedure and to assess the results of congenital dislocation of patella treated with medial transfer of patellar tendon and lateral transfer of medial fascio muscular flap. Methods Five children with congenital dislocation of patella were treated with medial transfer of patellar tendon and lateral transfer of medial fascio muscular flap between June 1994 and June 1998. There were two boys and three girls. The age of the patients at the surgery varied from 4 to 10 years. Four of them were unilateral and one was bilateral without any other deformities. An S-shaped incision is made to expose the distended medial fascio muscular flap, dislocated patella and well developed vastus medialis. The patellar tendon is detached from its insertion and released from the surrounding retinacula. A hole corresponding to the width of the patella is made in the membrane and another one is made through the synovial membrane and the fibrous capsule. The patellar tendon was sutured into the hole in the tibial metaphysis through the two membrane holes. The iliotibial band was lengthened and the biceps tendon was turned over the abundant medial retinaculum with a part of the vastus medialis to the lateral side of the synovial membrane. The patient was kept in a long leg cast and immobilized for 6 weeks. Results The average period of follow up was three years(range, one year and six months to five years). Four cases were able to extend the knee completely and one case had minus ten degrees in extention. Knee valgus in two patients disappeared after operation and one had a lower patella, but the function of knee was normal without any symptoms and signs. There were no complications in this series. Conclusion The patients with congenital dislocation of patella which is permanent and irreducible must be interfered with operation. Five patients were successfully treated with medial transfer of patellar tendon and lateral transfer of medial fascio muscular flap with less invasive and no complications, therefor it is worthwhile to be recommended for the treatment of congenital dislocation of patella.

AIM: To observe the effects of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge (SMB) on left ventricular hypertrophy(LVH)in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and the expression of c-fos. METHODS: 18 SHRs in 8 weeks old were divided into three groups at random. SMB or distilled water(1 g?kg -1?d -1)was injected intraperitoneally to two groups for 10 weeks. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and left ventricular mass index(LVMI)were measured. HE,VG and immunohistochemical staining combined with computed morphometry were used to evaluated the cardiomyocyte size and diameter, the collagen volume fraction(CVF), perivascular circumferential area (PVCA) and c-fos expression in the left ventricular tissue. RESULTS: Compared with 8-week-old rats, the SBP, LVMI, cardiomyocyte size and diameter, CVF, PCVA, c-fos expression increased markedly in the 18th week of SHRs. The LVH stopped and c-fos expression decreased whereas SBP changed slightly in animals treated with SMB. CONCLUSION: Chronic treatment with SMB can inhibit the development of LVH in SHR, which is probably related to the decease of cardiac c-fos.

The changes of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and brain ultrastructure during cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the effects of ulinastation injection were observed, and the mechanism was investigated. Twenty-four adult healthy Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group (8 rats), resuscitation group (8 rats) and ulinastatin (UTI) group (8 rats). Rats in control group underwent tracheotomy without clipping the trachea to induce circulatory and respiratory standstill. Rats in resuscitation and ulinastatin group were subjected to the procedure of establishing the model of cardiopulmonary cerebral resuscitation (CPCR). Rats in ulinastatin group were given with UTI 104 U/kg once after CPCR. In the control group, the plasma was collected immediate, 30 min, 2 h, 4 h, and 6 h after tracheotomy. In resuscitation group and UTI group, plasma was collected immediate after tracheotomy, 30 min, 2 h, 4 h and 6 h after successful resuscitation. The plasma levels of TNF-alpha were determined by radioimmunoassay (RIA). At the end of the experiment, 2 rats were randomly selected from each group and were decapitated. The cortex of the brain was taken out immediately to observe the ultrastructure changes. In control group, there were no significant differences in the level of TNF-alpha among different time points (P>0.05). In resuscitation group, the level of TNF-alpha was increased obviously after resuscitation (P<0.01) and reached its peak 2 h later after resuscitation. An increasing trend of TNF-alpha showed in UTI group. There were no differences in TNF-alpha among each sample taken after successful resuscitation and that after tracheotomy. The utrastructure of brains showed the injury in UTI group was ameliorated as compared with that in resuscitation group. In early period of CPCR, TNF-alpha was expressed rapidly and kept increasing. It indicated that TNF-alpha might take part in the tissue injury after CPCR. The administration of UTI during CACR could depress TNF-alpha and ameliorate brain injury. By regulating the expression of damaging mediator, UTI might provide a protective effect on the tissue injury after CPCR.

Objective To examine the effects of comprehensive family intervention on family function among HIV-infected injection drug users (IDUs). Methods Ninety-eight HIV-infected IDUs in 3 AIDS treatment sites in Hunan Province were selected by random cluster sampling and were randomly divided into the intervention group (50 cases) and the control group (48 cases). Subjects in the intervention group were given a 9-month comprehensive family intervention, while those in the control group received standard treatment and care. When the study was completed, APGAR questionnaire was used to analyze the effects of comprehensive family intervention. Results Before the intervention ,the scores of family function were not significantly different the intervention group and the control group. After the intervention, the scores of family function among the control group were(4.26± 3.73) points and the intervention group was (6.53± 4.29) points, the scores of family function were significantly different between the two groups. Conclusions The comprehensive family intervention is an effective model to improve the family function of HIV-infected injection drug users.

Objective To study the factors influenceing patients' family members to make own relative fac-tors patients' families making decision on refusal of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to the critical patients. Method Data were registered based on Utstein Style of 522 patients aged over 15 years, who subjected to in-hos-pital cardiac arrest(CA) in Department of Emergency of The First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical College from January 2005 to December 2008. A total of 157 patients' family made refusal decision among the 522 pa-tients, who belonged to the refusal group, and others belonged to the attempt resuscitation group. The associated factors included age, sex, marriage, household register, cause of CA, underlying diseases, capability of activity before CA, life supported with mechanical ventilation, and administration of pressor agents. The refusal decisions were evaluated by using univariate Logistical regression analysis, and then the statistical significant variables were analyzed by using muhivanate Logistical regression analysis. Results Age, household register, cause of CA(car-diac or traumatic),stroke, sudden death, cancer, capability of activity before CA, life supported with mechanical ventilation,and administration of pressor agents were the important factors of making refusal decision (P < 0.01), but sexes or marriage was insignificant related to the refusal decision (P > 0. O5). The independent risk factors re-lated to refusal decision were age (P = 0.034),cancer (P = 0.006),stroke (P = 0.003), and life supported with mechanical ventilation (P = 0.000) in multivariate Logistical regression analysis, but the protective factors were sudden death (P =0.000),cardiac CA (P =0.020) and traumatic CA(P =0.000). Conclusions Age over 60 years, cancer, stroke, and life suppoted with assisted ventilation before CA were factors associated with re-fusal decision making, yet sudden death, cardiac CA and traumatic CA were factors of accepting CPR.
