Objective To inquire clinical effects of hysteroscopic electroresection in the treatment of submucous hysteromyoma. Methods A retrospective analysis regarding curative effects of hysteroscopic electroresection in 72 cases of submucous hysteromyoma was carried out. Results The resected myoma was 1.5~7 cm in diameter, and the number of resected myoma was 1~3. The operation time was 10~90 min (mean, 30 min). The operation was accomplished on one session in all the 72 cases. No uterine perforation, bleeding and bowel injuries took place. Postoperative follow-up for 4~20 months in the 72 cases reported a satisfaction rate of 97 2% (70/72). Out of 6 patients who had pregnancy desire, 2 were pregnant with child and 1 of them had a delivery. Conclusions Hysteroscopic electroresection in the treatment of submucous hysteromyoma is safe and effective. It can markedly improve the menstruation and elevate the pregnancy rate.

Objective To explore the effect of different doses of dobutamine on acute lung injury (ALI) in rabbits with septic shock and to clarify the possible mechanism.Methods The rabbits model of septic shock was made by cecal ligation and puncture combined with intravenous injection of endotoxin,70 male New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into five groups (14 rabbits in each groups):shamc operation group (group A),ALI group (group B),dobutamine low-dose group (group C),dobutamine medium-dose group (group D) and dobutamine high-dose group (group E),7 rabbits from each group were sacrificed 3 h and 6 h after septic shock.The level of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in lung tissue was detected by ELISA.The expression of aquaporin 5 (AQP5) protein was determined by western blotting.The wet to dry weight (W/D) ratio was measured.The pathological and ultrastructural changes of lung tissue were evaluated by optical microscopy and electron microscope,and lung injury score was assessed.The differences among the different groups were analyzed by one-way ANOVA (LSD test).Results The level of cAMP and expression of AQP5 protein in lung tissue at 3 h and 6 h were dramatically lower in group B than those in group A (3.53 ±0.43) pmol/mLvs.(21.18 ±0.62) pmol/mL; (0.44 ± 0.04) pmol/mLvs.(0.99±0.06)pmol/mL; (2.71±0.56)pmol/mLvs.(21.78±0.62)pmol/mL; (0.29 ±0.05) pmol/mLvs.(0.91 ±0.06) pmol/mL; all P ＜0.001,while the W/D ratio was obviously higher in group B than those in group A (all P ＜0.001).Compared with group B,the level of cAMP and AQP5 protein expression in lung tissue were significantly increased at 6 h in group C (8.48 ±0.61) pmol./ mLvs.(2.71±0.56) pmol/mL,P＜0.01; (0.49 ±0.04) pmol/mLvs.(0.29 ±0.05) pmol/mL,P=0.001 and at3 hand6 hin groupDandE (10.86±0.66) pmol/mLvs.(3.53±0.43) pmol/mL; (0.60±0.05) pmol/mLvs.(0.44±0.04) pmol/mL; (13.80±0.49) pmol/mLvs.(2.71±0.56) pmol/mL; (0.64 ± 0.03) pmol/mLvs.(0.29 ± 0.05) pmol/mL; (15.57 ± 0.60) pmol/mL vs.(3.53±0.43) pmol/mL; (0.91 ±0.05) pmol/mLvs.(0.44 ±0.04) pmol/mL; (19.30±0.42) pmol/mL vs.(2.71 ±0.56) pmol/mL; (0.89 ±0.08) pmol/mL vs.(0.29 ±0.05) pmol/mL; all P ＜ 0.01,while the W/D ratio in group E was decreased obviously (P =0.002; P =0.001).Compared with group C and D,the level of cAMP and the expression of AQP5 protein at 3 h and 6 h in group E increased significantly (all P ＜0.01.The pathological and ultrastructural changes of lung tissue were more intensive in group B than those in group A and the lung injury scores were obviously higher (P ＜0.01).The degree of lung pathological and ultrastructural lesion was ameliorated after administration of dobutanmine.Additionally,histological scores decreased significantly (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Our study demonstrated that dobutamine could improve ALI induced by endotoxin,the mechanism of protective effect may involve in increasing the level of cAMP and up-regulating the AQP5 protein expression,and high-dose dobutamine had better effects.

Objective To study the expression of substance P(SP) and substance P receptor(SPR) during the development of mice brains. Methods The expression of SP and SPR during the development of mice brains from embryonic day(E) 11 to postnatal day(P) 0 days was analyzed by immunohistochemical method. Results The expression of SP began at E11 and gradually increased until birth. The expression of SPR began at E11 and maintained stable expression until birth. SP mostly expressed at striatum and SPR mostly expressed at medullary raphe.Conclusion The expression of SP and SPR during the embryo brain stage may indicate that SP could be an important factor involved in the early organization and maturation of neuron.

Wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of major causes of blindness in elder people.Intraocular injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) -A regimen has made big breakthrough for the treatment on choroidal neovascularization of wet AM D,while long-term follow-up and necessary retreatments are the key issues to remain obtained visual acuity.Multiple strategies of wet AMD have been used in following-up and retreating based on the visual acuity,optical coherence tomography (OCT),ophthalmoscope and fluorescein fundus angiography (FFA) in abroad.However,there also are major differences in the patient' s composition,treatment habits and distribution of medical sources in China from Western.So we suggest to standardize the follow-up and retreatment strategies about intravitreal injection of VEGF-A for wet AMD as to achieve a better effectiveness.OCT-guided individual follow-up and retreatment strategies should be very helpful for maintaining a long-term efficacy,minimizing the treatment time and reducing medical cost.

?AlM: To investigate the clinical characteristics and influencing factors of chronic renal failure ( CRF) patients with dry eye, and to provide clinical reference.?METHODS:Sixty-one cases (122 eyes) of patients with CRF ( CRF group ) and 61 cases ( 122 eyes ) of healthy persons ( control group) were carried out on Schirmer ▏test ( S▏t ) , break-up time of tear film ( BUT ) , corneal fluorescein staining ( FL) , test results of two groups were compared and related factors of dry eye in CRF patients were analyzed.?RESULTS: The results of S▏t and BUT in CRF group were lower than that in the control group (P<0. 05). The proportion of tear secretion reduce in CRF group ( S▏t<10mm/5min) was 49. 2% ( 60/122 ), which was higher than that in the control group ( 10. 0%, 12/122 ), the difference was statistically significant ( X2 = 45. 39, P <0. 05). The percentage of instability of tear film in CRF group (BUT≤10s) was 75. 4% (92/122), which was significantly higher than that in the control group (27. 0%, 33/122) (X2=57. 1, P<0. 05). The positive rate of corneal FL was 37. 7% (46/122), which was higher than that of the control group (10. 7%, 13/122), there was a statistically significant difference (X2= 24. 34, P<0. 05).?CONCLUSlON:CRF patients with a decrease in tear film stability and tear secretion are susceptible population to dry eye, clinically should be paid attention to the treatment.

Objective The purpose d this investigation was to evaluate the effect d influenza vaccination among medical staff. Methods We chose 134 medical staff who worked in out-patient department and the wards and received influenza vaccination as the inoculation group, 135 medical staff who did not receive influenza vaccination as the non-inoculation group. Investigation with questionnaires was carried out in the two groups 3 months after vaccination. Results The incidence rate of influenza-like disease in the observation group and the control group was 11.2% and 18.5% respectively. The protective rate was 39.46%. The average illness process of influenza-like disease in the observation group and the control group was 1.73 days and 2.96 days. The percent of patients with no medication, one kind of drug medication and two kinds of drag medication was 46.7%, 33.3% and 20.0% in the observation group and 32.0%, 8.0% and 60.0% in the control group. Conclusion Influenza vaccination exerted protective effect for medical staff and other people at high risk of emergency.

BACKGROUND: The treatment of upper cervical spine disorders through a posterior pedicle fixation approach have been carried out in some domestic large hospitals, but this surgery is still considered as a difficulty of cervical spine surgery. In order to minimize the risk of surgery, the authors designed a program of individual operations, and combined with self-developed pedicle locating and directing speculum to determine precise intraoperative position of pedicle screws, and no report is found by searching related database in China.OBJECTIVE: To improve the one-time success rate of internal fixation screws, to investigate the biomechanical effect of the implant, to formulate a simple, practical, individual protocol for atiantoaxial pedicle screw-plate system based on related data. METHODS: A total of 31 patients were recruited from Department of Orthopaedics in the 251 Hospital of Chinese PLA, between January 2002 and September 2006. Under the guidance of self-made atlantoaxial locating and directing speculum, the entrance point and angle for screw insertion, as well as screw diameter and length were determined according to the results of X-ray and CT measurement. Atlas pedicle screw was inserted at left (19.93±1.32) mm, and right (19.16±1.3) mm; Atlas pedicle screw insertion angle to inside was left (23.72±2.09)°, and right (23.35±1.91)°; Atlas pedicle screw insertion angle to side of head was (9.00±1.20)°. Axis pedicle screw was inserted at left (13.14±0.82) mm, and right (13.85±0.79) mm; Axis pedicle screw insertion angle to inside was left (24.52±1.26)°, and right (20.42±1.42)°; Axis pedicle screw insertion angle to side of head was (25.00±3.00)°.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: ①Totally 124 pedicle screws were implanted into 31 patients, and 122 screws were of one-time success. The precision rate was 98.39%. Two screws were secondly inserted because of cutting lateral cortical bone of pedicle for deviation of inward angle. ②Occipital neuralgia was found in 2 cases postoperatively and cured after one month of treatment;screws penetrated atlas left vertebral lateral wall in 2 cases, no spinal or vertebral artery injury was found. ③Radiographs showed that atlas was completely reduced in all patients, and apposition of dentoid process of axis fracture was good. CT films showed the screws a good location to the vertebrarterial spinal cord. ④The follow-up visit was averaged of 10.5 months. Bony fusion was found in all patients. No screw-plate breakage was found. No inflammatory or rejection reactions occurred.⑤By JOA scale, there were 16 cases of excellent, 12 cases of good, 2 cases of fine, and 1 case of poor. The excellent and good rate was 90%. It is suggested that the success rate of atlantoaxial pedicle screw-plate mplantation can be improved through a biomechanical angle.
