RESUMEN
Surgical operation is the main treatment of oral and maxillofacial tumors.Dysphagia is a common postoperative complication.Swal-lowing disorder can not only lead to mis-aspiration,malnutrition,aspiration pneumonia and other serious consequences,but also may cause psychological problems and social communication barriers,affecting the quality of life of the patients.At present,there is no systematic evalua-tion and rehabilitation management plan for the problem of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in China.Combining the characteristics of postoperative swallowing disorder in patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors,summarizing the clinical experience of ex-perts in the field of tumor and rehabilitation,reviewing and summarizing relevant literature at home and abroad,and through joint discussion and modification,a group of national experts reached this consensus including the core contents of the screening of swallowing disorders,the phased assessment of prognosis and complications,and the implementation plan of comprehensive management such as nutrition management,respiratory management,swallowing function recovery,psychology and nursing during rehabilitation treatment,in order to improve the evalua-tion and rehabilitation of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in clinic.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the mechanism of the embolism and sclerotherapy of fibrin glue combined with bleomycin (FG/BLM) for the treatment of cervicofacial vascular malformations by color doppler ultrasound.Methods:10 patients with venous malformation(VM) and 10 patients with arterio-venous malformation(AVM) were included.All patients underwent embolism and sclerotherapy of FG/BLM guided by ultrasound.Color doppler ultrasound was used to record the real-time two-dimensional ultrasonography and color doppler image.The flow and distribution of FG/BLM after injection into the lesions were observed.Results:Two-dimensional ultrasonography showed clumps or flake strong echo after immediate injection of FG/BLM into the cavity of VMs,then floated in the abnormal venous lumen and diffused throughout the cavity.At the later stage the lesions were filled by a large number of flocculent and netted low echo,and patchy strong echo.The volume of VMs cavity expanded dramaticlly,and the blood flow signal was significantly decreased.After injection of FG/BLM into the lumen of AVMs,clumps or flake strong echo were observed,then most of the snowflake strong echo rapidly filled or scattered along with blood stream to the distal part of the vessels.The color doppler showed significantly decrease of blood flow signal.Conclusion:FG/BLM injection can embolize and block the draining vein of VM,and play a role on the storage of sclerozing agent.FG/BLM injection can embolize both the dilated blood vessels and capillary network of AVM.
RESUMEN
Objective To study the safety and efficacy of continuous intravenous infusion of fentanyl in laser photocoagulation of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).Methods From March,2014 to January,2015,ROP infants hospitalized for laser photocoagulation in Guangdong Women and Children hospital were randomly (using envelope method)assigned into the fentanyl groupand the control group.In the fentanyl group,the patients were given fentanyl combined with topical anesthesia,while onlytropical anesthesiain the control group.Premature infant pain profile (PIPP)scores,heart rate,mean artery pressure and complications within 3 days after operation were recorded. The concentration of epinephrine, norepinephrine and cortisol in the blood were measured before and after the operation.Student′s t test,non-parameter rank and chi-square test were used to compare the differences between the two groups.Results A total of 82 infants were enrolled in the study,42 in the fentanyl group and 40 in the control group.In the fentanyl group,11 .9% infants had maximum PIPP score ≥6 and 70.0% in the control group,the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05).In the fentanyl group,the PIPP score at the beginning of operation, the maximum PIPP score during operation and the PIPP score at the end of operation were 2.0,3.0and 1 .5, respectively.In the control group,these scoreswere 8.0,8.0and 8.0 respectively.The differences were statistically significant (P <0.05 ).No significant differences existed between the concentration of epinephrine,norepinephrine and cortisol before and after operationin the fentanyl group.However,these concentrations were elevated after the operation than before the operation in the control group (P <0.05).The incidence of complications within three days after operation was 19.0% in the fentanyl group and 40.0% in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05 ).Conclusion Comparing with topical anesthesia,fentanyl combined with topical anesthesia has lower pain scores,less stress responses and fewer complications during ROP laser photocoagulation.Fentanyl combined with topical anesthesia is a safe and effective analgesic method during ROP laser photocoagulation.
RESUMEN
This guideline was published by the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine,which has been developed to assist physicians performing sonographic studies of the brain in neonates and infants.Neurosonography should be performed only when there is a valid medical reason,and gain the necessary diagnostic information.Although it is not possible to detect every abnormality,adherence to the following guideline will maximize the detection of most abnormalities of the brain in neonates and infants that can be imaged with ultrasound.

RESUMEN
Objective To determine the characteristics of retinal vascularization in premature infants. Methods A prospective study was carried out which included all premature infants with birth weight<2 000 g, who were hospitalized in Guangdong Women and Children's Hospital from September 1, 2009 to August 31, 2010. Close retinal screening and follow-up were carried out in order to record retinal vascularization at different post-conceptional ages. Spearman correlation analysis was performed for statistical analysis. Results A total of 231 infants were enrolled, and follow-up was completed in 212 infants giving a follow-up rate of 91.8%. Twenty-eight infants developed retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) resulting in a ROP morbidity of 13.2%, and 184 cases had full retinal vascularization. The median birth weight was 1 600 g (1 000-1 900 g) and the median gestational age was 32.4 weeks (27.0-35.5 weeks). In the 32-week post-conceptional age group, the proportion with full vascularization in ZoneⅠ,ⅡandⅢwas 87.1%(81/93), 7.5%(7/93) and 0.0%(0/93), respectively. In the 36-week post-conceptional age group, full vascularization was observed in ZoneⅠ, and the proportion with full vascularization in ZoneⅡandⅢrose sharply at 38-week and 40-week post-conceptional age, respectively. The proportion with full vascularization in ZoneⅢwas 100.0%(24/24) at 43-week post-conceptional age. According to Spearman correlation analysis, there was a positive correlation between ZoneⅡand Zone Ⅲ retinal vascularization progression and post-conceptional age (r=0.690 and 0.720;P=0.000). In premature infants, full retinal vascularization in ZoneⅠoccurred at 36-week post-conceptional age. The median gestational age for ZoneⅡand ZoneⅢretinal vascularization was 38 weeks (32.2-40.4 weeks) and 41 weeks (36.0-42.6 weeks), respectively. Therefore, a further 2-3 weeks were required for full retinal vascularization in ZoneⅡand ZoneⅢ. The time differences for under-vascularization in ZoneⅡandⅢwere 8 to 10 weeks, and the time differences for full vascularization in ZoneⅡandⅢwere 8 weeks and 6 weeks, respectively. Conclusion Retinal vascularization varies in premature infants. Almost all premature infants complete vascularization by term gestational age and the majority of infants need to be followed up to 41 weeks. It is essential to focus on the different retinal regions during maturation.
RESUMEN
Nowadays, SUMO fusion system is important for recombinant protein production in Escherichia coli, yet a few aspects remain to be improved, including the efficacy for vector construction and protein solubility. In this study, we found the SUMO gene Smt3 (Sm) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae conferred an unexpected activity of constitutive prokaryotic promoter during its PCR cloning, and the gene coding regions of SUMOs in most species had a sigma70-dependent prokaryotic promoter embedded, through the prediction via the BPROM program developed by Softberry. By combining the characters of Sm promoter activity and the Stu I site (added at the 3'-terminal of Sm), and introducing a His-tag and a hyper-acidic solubility-enhancing tag, we further constructed a set of versatile vectors for gene cloning and expression on the basis of Sm'-LacZa fusion gene. Experimentally started from these vectors, several target genes were subcloned and expressed through blue-white screening and SDS-PAGE analysis. The results manifest a few of expectable advantages such as rapid vector construction, highly soluble protein expression and feasible co-expression of correlated proteins. Conclusively, our optimized SUMO fusion technology herein could confer a large potential in E. coli protein expression system, and the simultaneously established co-expression vector systems could also be very useful in studying the protein-protein interactions in vivo.

In plants, UDP-L-rhamnose is one of the major components of cell wall skeleton. Rhamnose synthase plays a key role in rhamnose synthesis which converts UDP-D-glucose into UDP-L-rhamnose in plants. In this study, we isolated the 1058 bp promoter region of the rhamnose synthase gene AtRHM1 from Arabidopsis genome by PCR, and created a series of deletions of AtRHM1 promoter ranging from -931 bp to +127 bp. The full length of the promoter and its deletion derivatives fused with GUS reporter gene were introduced into wild-type Arabidopsis by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation respectively. The GUS staining and GUS enzymatic activity assay showed that the expression of AtRHM1 is induced at transcriptional level by glucose and the regulatory elements involved in the glucose response are located in the region of -931 bp - -752 bp which contains three G-box motifs.
