Recent research has focused on vascular endothelial barrier function and repair, oxidative stress, inflammation, cognitive function, special populations such as the elderlyor children patients with SAS. Conclusion Clinical researchers have paid more attention to SAS than before, but there are still many important issues unresolved.
Integrating visualization toolkit and the capability of interaction, bidirectional communication and graphics rendering which provided by HTML5, we explored and experimented on the feasibility of remote medical image reconstruction and interaction in pure Web. We prompted server-centric method which did not need to download the big medical data to local connections and avoided considering network transmission pressure and the three-dimensional (3D) rendering capability of client hardware. The method integrated remote medical image reconstruction and interaction into Web seamlessly, which was applicable to lower-end computers and mobile devices. Finally, we tested this method in the Internet and achieved real-time effects. This Web-based 3D reconstruction and interaction method, which crosses over internet terminals and performance limited devices, may be useful for remote medical assistant.
In order to satisfy demands of massive and heterogeneous tumor clinical data processing and the multi-center collaborative diagnosis and treatment for tumor diseases, a Tumor Data Interacted System (TDIS) was established based on grid platform, so that an implementing virtualization platform of tumor diagnosis service was realized, sharing tumor information in real time and carrying on standardized management. The system adopts Globus Toolkit 4.0 tools to build the open grid service framework and encapsulats data resources based on Web Services Resource Framework (WSRF). The system uses the middleware technology to provide unified access interface for heterogeneous data interaction, which could optimize interactive process with virtualized service to query and call tumor information resources flexibly. For massive amounts of heterogeneous tumor data, the federated stored and multiple authorized mode is selected as security services mechanism, real-time monitoring and balancing load. The system can cooperatively manage multi-center heterogeneous tumor data to realize the tumor patient data query, sharing and analysis, and compare and match resources in typical clinical database or clinical information database in other service node, thus it can assist doctors in consulting similar case and making up multidisciplinary treatment plan for tumors. Consequently, the system can improve efficiency of diagnosis and treatment for tumor, and promote the development of collaborative tumor diagnosis model.
Objective To investigate the clinicalmanifestations, electroencephalogram (EEG) characteristics, surgical treatment and prognosis of epilepsy secondary to Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) in children.Methods The data of 7 children with epilepsysecondaryto Sturge-Weber syndrome who were treated by surgery from May 2015 to May 2020 in our Children's Epilepsy Center were retrospectively reviewed. Their demographic characteristics, seizure forms, results of EEG and cranial imaging investigations, surgical methods, postoperative pathological reports and prognosis during follow-upwere summarized and analyzed. The prognosis were evaluated byEngel classificationat the last time point during follow-up. Results Totally 7 pediatric patients were enrolled, including 1 male (16/25, 64.0%) and 6 females.All the 7 cases presented with focal seizures at the onset among whom 2 cases developed status epilepticus during the course of the disease(epilepsiapartialiscontinuain 1 case),one case had epileptic spasmsand 1 case was characterized by cluster seizures. The interictal EEG manifestations of the cases gradually deteriorated as the course of the disease prolonged, including the slow wave on the affected side gradually increases (7/7), the amplitude gradually decreases (7/7), and the physiological wave disappears (4/7). Besides, no epileptiform discharges/incidental or a few epileptiform dischargeswere found in their interictal EEGs. Four cases underwent hemispherotomy, 1 case underwent temporo-parieto-occipital disconnection and 2 cases underwent lesion resection. The cases were followed up for 6 months to 5 years, and the average follow-up duration was 79.29 months. Six cases were rated as Engel Ⅰa during the regularfollow-up. Only 1 case was rated asEngel Ⅱ and Engel Ⅲ at 3 month and 1 year after the operation. ConclusionChildren with epilepsy secondary to SWS usually present with focal seizures and have diverse seizure forms. The EEG show characteristic changes. For the caseswith drug refractory epilepsy, detailed preoperative evaluation and reasonable surgical methods can result in a better therapeutic effect.
Objective To investigate the effectiveness of dorsal metacarpal island flap for treating scar contracture of the finger web. Methods Between June 2009 and December 2010, 10 patients with scar contracture of the finger web were treated. There were 6 males and 4 females with an average age of 30 years (range, 14-57 years). Scar contracture was caused byinjury in 8 cases, by burn in 1 case, and by operation in 1 case. The locations were the 1st web space in 1 case, the 2nd web space in 3 cases, the 3rd web space in 5 cases, and the 4th web space in 1 case. The disease duration was 3 to 9 months with an average of 5 months. The maximum abduction was 10-20°. After web space scar release, the dorsal metacarpal island flap (3.5 cm × 1.2 cm-4.0 cm × 2.0 cm in size) was used to reconstruct web space (2.0 cm × 1.0 cm-3.0 cm × 1.8 cm in size). The donor site was directly sutured or repaired with local flaps. Results At 2 days after operation, necrosis occurred in 1 flap, which healed by extractive treatment. The other flaps survived and wound healed by first intention; all the flaps at donor sites survived and incision healed by first intention. Ten patients were followed up 6 to 15 months (mean, 9 months). The reconstructed web space had good appearance, the maximum abduction was 80 ° in 1 case of the 1st web space scars contracture, and the maximum abduction was 35-45° (mean, 40°) in the other 9 cases. In 8 scar patients causing by injury, no scar contracture recurred during follow-up. Conclusion It can achieve good results in appearance and function to use dorsal metacarpal island flap for treating scar contracture of the finger web.

Methods One eight-year-old girl was admitted to the hospital for tonic seizure in October 2008. The physical examination results were normal with neither facial hemangioma nor ocular abnormalities. The only manifestation of the patient was epilepsy. The patient was treated with sodium valproate. Results According to cranial CT and MRI results, the patient was considered to have Sturge-Weber syndrome without facial hemangioma. The patient was treated with anticonvulsant drugs and experienced no recurrence of the seizures or any manifestations of mental retardation, hemiplegia, subarachnoid hemorrhage, cerebral hemorrhage, stroke-like episodes or migraine during the following 12 months of follow-up. Conclusion In the absence of facial hemangioma, the diagnosis can be based on cranial CT and MRI. Sturge-Weber syndrome patients without facial hemangioma are helped by anticonvulsant drugs. According to this case and the reports of literature, most patients without facial hemangioma only manifest epilepsy which can be treated effectively with antiepileptic drugs and such patients have a good prognosis without operation, which is different from those with facial hemangioma.
