Biomechanical behavior of brain injury caused by sticks using finite element model and Hybrid-III testing

Objective: To study the biomechanical mechanism of head injuries beaten with sticks, which is common in the battery or assaultive cases. Methods: In this study, the Hybrid-III anthropomorphic test device and finite element model (FEM) of the total human model for safety (THUMS) head were used to determine the biomechanical response of head while being beaten with different sticks. Total eight Hybrid-III tests and four finite element simulations were conducted. The contact force, resultant acceleration of head center of gravity, intracranial pressure and von Mises stress were calculated to determine the different biomechanical behavior of head with beaten by different sticks. Results: In Hybrid-III tests, the stick in each group demonstrated the similar kinematic behavior under the same loading condition. The peak values of the resultant acceleration for thick iron stick group, thin iron stick group, thick wooden stick group and thin wooden stick group were 203.4 g, 221.1 g, 170.5 g and 122.2 g respectively. In finite element simulations, positive intracranial pressure was initially observed in the frontal comparing with negative intracranial pressure in the contra-coup site. Subsequently the intracranial pressure in the coup site was decreasing toward negative value while the contra-coup intracranial pressure increasing toward positive values. Conclusions: The results illustrated that the stiffer and larger the stick was, the higher the von Mises stress, contact force and intracranial pressure were. We believed that the results in the Hybrid-III tests and THUMS head simulations for brain injury beaten with sticks could be reliable and useful for better understanding the injury mechanism.     

上海市黄浦区社会办医疗美容机构《医疗美容管理办法》知晓情况调查

目的了解上海市黄浦区社会办医疗美容机构的管理人员和医师对《医疗美容管理办法》相关内容的掌握情况,发现存在的问题并提出改善建议.方法采用现场调查与现场问卷调查相结合的方式,对在上海市黄浦区开展医疗美容科目的所有社会办医疗机构(共计38家)进行全覆盖现场调查,并对其中的管理人员41人、相关医师31人进行问卷调查.结果38家社会办医疗美容机构中,美容外科和美容皮肤科的开展率较高,分别为96.8%和97.2%,而美容牙科开展率为52.4%,美容中医科开展率最低(25.0%).管理人员关于非主诊医师可在主诊医师指导下工作的知晓率仅68.3%.关于美容外科、皮肤科、中医科、牙科主诊医师应具备的工作年限,管理人员答对率为90.2%,医师答对率为72.0%,二者有显著性差异(P<0.05).结论社会办医疗美容机构中的二级科目设置需进一步优化,以减少资源空置.应加强对医疗机构管理人员和医师的法律培训,改变经营模式,制定明确的准入与退出机制,从而减少违法违规行为的发生.

STAT-3 overexpression and p21 up-regulation accompany impaired regeneration of fatty livers

Fatty liver is an important cause of morbidity in humans and is linked to impaired liver regeneration after liver injury, but the mechanisms for impaired liver regeneration remain unknown. In the normal liver, the interleukin (IL)-6/STAT-3 pathway is thought to play a central role in regeneration because this pathway is disrupted in IL-6-deficient mice that exhibit impaired liver regeneration after 70% partial hepatectomy (PH). To determine whether inhibition of STAT-3 is involved in fatty liver-related mitoinhibition, regenerative induction of STAT-3 was compared in normal mice and leptin-deficient ob/ob mice that have fatty livers and markedly impaired liver regeneration after PH. In both groups, two waves of STAT-3 activation were observed, the first in endothelia and the second in hepatocytes. Before PH, a significantly higher percentage of ob/ob endothelial and hepatocyte nuclei expressed phosphorylated (activated) STAT-3. After PH, phospho-STAT-3 accumulated in liver nuclei of lean mice and this response was markedly exaggerated in ob/ob mice. Moreover, a striking inverse correlation was noted between hepatocyte nuclear accumulation of phospho-STAT-3 and DNA synthesis (as assessed by bromodeoxyuridine labeling), as well as cyclin D1 mRNA induction and protein expression. In contrast, STAT-3 activation was positively correlated with p21 protein expression in both groups of mice. Because these results link exaggerated STAT-3 activation with impaired hepatocyte proliferation, STAT-3 inhibition cannot be a growth-arrest mechanism in ob/ob fatty livers. Rather, hyperinduction of this factor may promote mitoinhibition by up-regulating mechanisms that impede cell cycle progression.
