Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

OBJECTIVETo assess the value of suspension array technology (SAT) for the genetic diagnosis of non-syndromic hearing loss (NSHL).

METHODSThree hundred and sixteen NSHL patients were simultaneously tested by SAT targeting 20 hotspot mutations within 4 common pathologic genes among the Chinese population as well as 9 deafness gene mutation detection kits. The results of the two approaches were validated by Sanger sequencing.

RESULTSAmong the 316 patients, 161 were found to carry a mutation by SAT. Sixty five patients have carried homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations, which yielded a mutation rate of 50.9% and a diagnostic rate of 21.2%. Seventy three patients were found to be carriers by the 9 deafness gene mutation detection kits. These included 34 patients carrying homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations, which yielded a mutation rate of 23.1% and diagnostic rate of 11.4%. Above results were consistent with those of Sanger sequencing.

CONCLUSIONSAT is a simple, rapid and accurate method featuring high detection rate for common mutations related to deafness among the Chinese population and has provided an effective means of genetic testing for hereditary deafness.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the characteristic and regularity of antineoplastics-induced ADR,and to provide refer-ence for safety use of antineoplastics in clinic. METHODS:In retrospective study,309 cases of antineoplastics-induced ADR col-lected from a special hospital during Jan.-Dec. 2015 were summarized and analyzed statistically. RESULTS:Among 309 ADR cas-es,female (58.25％) was more than male (41.75％). The patients aged more than 40 years old occupied the highest proportion (78.64％). Main route of administration was intravenous dripping(94.82％). There were 225 cases of severe ADR(72.82％). To-tal 268 cases were improved after drug withdrawal or treatment(86.73％). A total of 24 kinds of antineoplastics were involved in 309 ADR cases;most of ADR were induced by docetaxel,followed by cisplatin,cyclophosphamide. Most common organs/system involved in ADR was hemopoietic system (64.24％),main clinical manifestation was myelosuppression. CONCLUSIONS:It is necessary to strengthen ADR monitoring,prevent,discover and treat antineoplastics-induced ADR timely,in order to reduce the harm to the patients and ensure the safety and effectiveness of drug treatment.

BACKGROUND:Posterior cervical open-door expansive laminoplasty is one of the simple and effective methods to treat cervical spinal diseases, has satisfactory results but low complications. However, the imbalance of sagittal plan, loss of lordosis or axial pain is often reported recently. OBJECTVE:To analyze the correlation between cervical sagittal alignment and clinical outcomes after laminoplasty. METHODS:Between January 2011 and June 2015, 122 cases of cervical spinal disease, who were treated with open-door expansive laminoplasty with mini-titanium plate, were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical outcomes were evaluated by Japanese Orthopaedic Association, Neck Disability Index and Visual Analogue Scale. Radiographic results were assessed by C2-7 Cobb angle, C2-7 sagittal vertical axis and C7 slope. The correlation between sagittal alignment and clinical outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Al patients were fol owed up for 7-32 months. (2) Japanese Orthopaedic Association, Neck Disability Index and Visual Analogue Scale scores were improved in the final fol ow-up (al P<0.001). No significant difference in upper limb Visual Analogue Scale scores was determined (P=0.142). In the final fol ow-up, C2-7 sagittal vertical axis increased (P=0.036), but neither the C2-7 Cobb angle nor the C7 slope significantly changed (P=0.092, P=0.184). (3) There were no correlations between sagittal alignment parameters (C2-7 Cobb angle, C2-7 sagittal vertical axis and C7 slope) and clinical outcomes (Japanese Orthopaedic Association, Neck Disability Index and Visual Analogue Scale) (al P>0.05). (4) These findings indicated that posterior cervical open-door expansive laminoplasty with mini-titanium plate can significantly improve the neurological function of patients. However, there is no correlation between cervical sagittal alignment and clinical outcomes.

AIM: To study the change of myocardial ceramide during myocardial ischemia/reperfusion and the relationship between ceramide and apoptosis and oxidative stress. METHODS: After inducing myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in mice with pituitrin (Pit), myocardial SOD activity and MDA content were measured. DNA agarose gel electrophoresis and fluorescent staining of DAPI were done to check up apoptosis. The content of myocardial ceramide (?g/kg) was measured through HPTLC and scan of thin plate. RESULTS: The myocardium of I/R model group had the phenomenon of DNA ladder. Apoptosis index and ceramide content in I/R model group were higher than those in normal control group (P

Objective To study the anti-myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury effect of Sini Decoction's active fraction(SNDAF).Methods Experimental animals were randomly individed into normal,model,Sini Decoction(SND),and SNDAF groups.Rat hearts were perfused by the Langendorff method.The model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury was reproduced by adjusting the flow of perfused liquid.The perfused liquid of normal and model groups was KH buffer saturated by oxygen.The perfused liquid with SND or SNDAF was mixed with KH buffer.The coronary flow and contract power of myocardium at 0 min of ischemia and 1,5,10,20,30,40,and 50 min of reperfusion were tested,respectively.The incidence of reperfusion arrhythmias(IRA) in the first 1 minute of reperfusion was calculated.Mice were given drugs by ig for 3 d and then myocardial ischemia-reperfusion models were established by ip pituitrin(20 U/kg).ECG of mice was recorded at 0—80 min after ip administration. SOD activity,and the contents of MDA and LA in myocardium of mice were measured.Results Both SND and SNDAF could reinforce myocardial contract and reduce the IRA in the first minute of reperfusion.SND had better effect on IRA than that of SNDAF.SNDAF had better effect on myocardial contract than that of SND.SND and SNDAF could significantly drop ECG J point raise induced by ischemia,and increase SOD activity,and decrease contents of MDA and LA significantly in ischemia myocardium.There were no significant difference between SND and SNDAF.Conclusion SNDAF could improve oxidative injury and suppress(ischemia) of myocardium,reinforce myocardial contract,and reduce the incidence of arrhythmias during(myocardia) ischemia-reperfusion.
