RESUMO
The ketogenic diet(KD) treatment program planned for a 2 years old and 5 months boy suffered from severe cerebral complications after ependymoma operation in the Children′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University at December 2018 was analyzed retrospectively.The patient developed various complications, including cerebral hemorrhage, hydrocephalus and hernia after the operation of ependymoma, with coma, fever and convulsion, and 1 month of anti-infection and antiepileptic treatment was ineffective.After 2 weeks of 4∶1 KD, fever and convulsion were effectively relieved without obvious side effects.One month later, the patient regained consciousness, demonstrating that KD can be applied to treat severe cerebral complications after ependymoma operation.
RESUMO
Objective To observe transforming growth factor-?1(TGF-?1) in chicken callus. Methods The right humerus fracture models of 16 New Roman hens, at the age of 6-month old, about 1.75kg in weight, were established under no germ operational condition. TGF-?1 of the tissue samples procured from callus on 3d,6d,10d and 15d of fracture healing were examined by immunohistochemical method. Results Histochemical study shows that the immunostaining of TGF-?1 exists in blood cells on 3d, connective tissue cells and extracellular matrix on 6d, cartilage on 10d and 15d. Compared with that on 3d, the expression of TGF-?1 increased markedly on 6d, 10d and 15d of fracture healing(P
