Objective To summarize the clinical features of brucellosis and investigate the experience of diagnosis and treatment of the disease .Methods Data from epidemic reports and clinical characteristics from 172 ca-ses of patients with brucellosis were retrospectively analyzed .Results 130 out of 172 cases of were diagnosed as bru-cellosisaise.Of the misdiagnosed 42 cases,13 cases were misdiagnosed as lumbar spine ,10 cases as upper respiratory tract infection 8 cases as pancytopenia,5 cases as orchitis epididymitis,2 cases as hepatitis,1 case as prostatitis, 1 case as cervical disease ,1 case as myocarditis ,1 case as rheumatoid arthritis .And after treatment ,142 cases recov-ered completely,16 cases improved.The total efficiency was 100.0%.2 cases without standard treatment recurred ,an interval of 3 to 15 months.Conclusion So the clinical manifestation of brucellosis is lack of specificity that misdiag-nosis rate is high;The manipulation combined with standard antibiotic therapy may have certain effects on early -stage brucellosis .

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the methodological bias of systematic review and the reliability of counclusions of tradi-tional Chinese medicine (TCM) combined with transarterial chemoembolization in the treatment of primary liver cancer,and pro-vide evidence-based reference. METHODS:Retrieved from Cochrane Library,PubMed,Guideline,CBM,CJFD and Wanfang Da-tabase,high quality systematic review about TCM combined with transarterial chemoembolization in the treatment of primary liver cancer was collected for reevaluation. RESULTS:Totally 12 systematic review were involved. Results showed TCM combined with transarterial chemoembolization can improve tumor’s objective response,prolong the survival time of patients,improve life quali-ty,reduce postoperative adverse reactions with no serious adverse reactions reported related to TCM in the treatment of primary liv-er cancer. CONCLUSIONS:The clinical efficacy of TCM combined with transarterial chemoembolization is superior to transarterial chemoembolization alone in the treatment of primary liver cancer,with better safety.

Objective:To observe the influence of long-term exercise training on carotid intima-media thickness (IMT)in patients with mild-to-moderate hypertension.Methods:A total of 92 patients with mild-to-moderate es-sential hypertension (EH)were randomly and equally divided into exercise group and routine treatment group.Exer-cise group received exercise training based on routine treatment.All patients were followed up one year.Influence of long-term exercise training on carotid artery diameter and carotid IMT was observed in EH patients.Results:Af-ter one year,there were significant reductions in systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP),ca-rotid artery diameter and carotid IMT in both groups,P<0.05 all;compared with routine treatment group,there were significant reductions in SBP [(145.72±11.31)mmHg vs.(130.89±13.01)mmHg],DBP [(88.49±7.32) mmHg vs.(81.71±8.45)mmHg],carotid artery diameter [(6.34±1.23)mm vs.(6.22±1.01)mm]and carotid IMT [(0.89±0.21)mm vs.(0.84±0.11)mm]in exercise group after treatment,P<0.05 all.Conclusion:Long-term exercise training can effectively reverse early arteriosclerosis lesion of carotid wall and effectively control blood pressure.

Objective To study the characteristics of bone mineral density and bone metabolism in elderly men.Methods 220 male elderly hospitalized patients were selected and divided into three groups according to age:65-74 years group,75-84 years group and 85-94 years group.Bone mineral density and bone metabolic biochemical makers including serum parathyroid hormone (PTH),bone gla-protein (BGP) and 25-dihydroxy vitamin D (25-OH VD) were detected.Results The prevalence of osteoporosis was increased along with ageing in three groups (6.8%,12.0% vs.22.9%,respectively,F=4.986,P<0.05).The characteristics of bone metabolism showed that serum PTH level was increased and serum levels of BGP,25-OH VD were decreased along with ageing (F =4.986,3.245,5.997,all P<0.05),and the levels of BGP,25-OH VD were generally decreased in elderly men.Conclusions The prevalence of osteoporosis is high in elderly men.Bone metabolism can be used as the auxiliary index for osteoporosis risk assessment,which is helpful for the early diagnosis of primary osteoporosis.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) with 80 kVp and contrast agent of iodixanol (270 mg I/ml) by filtered back projection(FBP) reconstruction.Methods In total,52 patients who underwent CTPA were randomly divided into two equally-sized groups,control group and experimental group.The volume computed tomography dose index (CTDIvol) and dose-length product (DLP)were recorded,and the weighted computed tomography dose index (CTDIw) and effective dose (E) were calculated.The image quality was visually evaluated and measured,and statistical analyses were performed on the image quality and the radiation dose.Results The sex,age,height,weight and body mass index (BMI) had no statistical difference between two groups (P > 0.05).The average iodine dosage decreased by 22.9% in the experimental group compared with the control group.Compared with the control group,the CTDIvol,DLP,CTDIw and E decreased by 73.5%,75.1%,73.5% and 75.8%,respectively.The differences were statistically significant (t =<0.001,30.5,< 0.001,-28.7,P < 0.05).The image quality of the two groups met the requirement of diagnosis and there were no significant statistic differences between visually evaluating and objectively measuring the image quality (P > 0.05).Conclusions Using 80 kVp and iodixanol for CTPA,FBP reconstruction image quality can meet diagnostic requirements.At the same time the radiation dose,the contrast agent dose and the X-ray tube wastage are reduced respectively.

Objective To explore the clinical effect and prognosis of plasma N -terminal probrain natriuret-ic peptide (NT -proBNP)and 6 min walk test performance (6 -MWT)in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF).Methods 100 patients with CHF were selected as observation group,and 50 healthy people were selected as control group.They were grouped by NYHA degree,28 cases were NYHA Ⅱ,56 cases were NYHA Ⅲ and 16 cases were NYHA Ⅳ.The plasma level of NT -proBNP,6 -MWT,left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),early diastolic peak mitral flow velocity to late diastolic peak mitral flow velocity (E /A)were measured.Results The plasma NT -proBNP level of CHF patients was positively correlated with NYHA degree (r =0.683,P <0.01);6 -MWT was neg-atively correlated with NYHA degree(r =-0.518,P <0.01).For CHF patients,significant correlation was observed between NT -proBNP and 6 -MWT (r =-0.789,P <0.05).Plasma NT -proBNP level was correlated with dias-tolic HF,systolic HF and mixed type heart failure (r =-0.678,P <0.01;r =-0.845,P <0.01;r =-0.759,P <0.01).Conclusion Plasma NT -proBNP,6 -MWT can serve as a marker for the detection and evaluation of heart failure.Meanwhile,the higher the NT -proBNP level,the shorter the 6 -MWT,the more serious the heart failure,the poorer the prognosis.
