    [Abstract]〓Objective〖HTSS〗〓To investigate the role and significance of aminoterminal proCtype natriuretic peptide(NTproCNP), bone specific alkaline(BAP) and osteocalcin(OC) in boneformation of neonates with different gestational age.
    〖HTH〗〖WTHZ〗Methods〖HTSS〗〓Eighty cases of neonates born within 24 hours were selected and were divided into group A(gestational age<32 weeks), group B(32 weeks ≤gestational age<37 weeks), and group C(37 weeks ≤ gestational age<42 weeks) according to gestational age. According to the body length participants were divided into three groups: length less than that of gestational age group(L1 group), length appropriate for gestational age group(L2 group), and length greater than the gestational age group(L3 group). According to body weight percentile, they were divided into three groups: body weight less than that of gestational age group(W1 group), body weight appropriate for gestational age group(W2 group), and body weight greater than gestational age group(W3 group). Birth length and body mass were measured within 1 hour after birth. Serum NTproCNP, BAP and OC were measured within 24 hours after birth.
    〖HTH〗〖WTHZ〗Results〖HTSS〗〓There were no significant differences in gestational age, birth length, body mass, NTproCNP, BAP and OC between male and female neonates(P>005). Participants from group B and C had higher  birth length and body weight than A group. Participants from group C had higher birth length and body weight than group B. BAP of group C was lower than that of group A and B(P<005). There was no significant difference in gender, NTproCNP and OC among 3 groups(P>005). BAP of group L3 was lower than that of group L1 and L2(P<005). There was no significant difference in the levels of NTproCNP and OC among 3 groups(P>005); NTproCNP, BAP and OC level had no significant difference among group W1, W2 and W3(P>005). Neonatal birth weight and body length were positively correlated with gestational age(P<005). There were no correlation between NTproCNP and OC and gestational age, birth weight and BAP(P>005). BAP and gestational age, body weight, and body length were negatively correlated(P<005).
    〖HTH〗〖WTHZ〗Conclusion〖HTSS〗〓No relationship between serum NTproCNP levels and fetal bone development during the second and third trimester of pregnancy was found. BAP is closely correlated with fetal bone growth and development. With the increase of gestational age, fetal ossification gradually weakened. The mineralization of fetal bone is weak and the bone strength of newborn is samll, which may be beneficial to delivery.

    [Abstract] Objective〖HTSS〗〓To study the clinical value of continued outofhospital management in patients with malignant high biliary obstruction(MHBO) after implantation of biliary extradrainage tube(BEDT), providing reasonable suggestions to reduce the incidence of outofhospital complications during BEDT.
    〖HTH〗〖WTHZ〗Methods〖HTSS〗〓120 patients with MHBO after implantating BEDT, were randomly divided into control group and experimental group. 60 cases in the control group received routine management, visiting the hospital regularly. On the basis of conventional management, another 60 cases in the experimental group received continued outofhospital management to prevent the relative complications of BEDT. The incidence and management of complications of BEDT implatation in the two groups outside the hospital were compared.
    〖HTH〗〖WTHZ〗Results〖HTSS〗〓Outside hospital, the overall complication rate of BEDT in the control group was significantly higher than that in the experimental group with statistically significance(P<005), including displacement、prolapsus、obstruction of BEDT and biliary tract infection. The hospital referral of patients in the control group was higher than those in the experimental group(P<005). Because the patients in the control group did not regularly sluice biliary tract, nor regularly change surgical dressing and drainage pack, and they did not record the color and capacity of drainage. 32 cases(53.3%) of the control group were rehospitalized due to complications of BEDT outside hospital, which included 7 cases in the experimental group(11.7%). The difference was statistically significant(P<005).
    〖HTH〗〖WTHZ〗Conclusion〖HTSS〗〓In order to fundamentally solve the brought outside the hospital during BEDT complications, prevention was the most important. Continued outofhospital management could reduce incidence of BEDT complications, improve the use of BEDT time and usage rate, reduce the patient's health service cost, which was worthy of clinical application. The prevention and continued outofhospital management are the keys to fundamentally resolve and reduce the beset produced by complications of BEDT. Also, continued outofhospital management improves the usage of BEDT and reduces the health service cost of patients, worthy of generalized clinical application.
