Objective To evaluate the clinical utility of ROI(region of intest)volume measurement for interventional embolization of the oral and maxillofacial AVM before intervention.Methods four patients with oral and maxillofacial AVM were undertaken,ROI volume measurement of AVM by GE AW 4.1 software based on the MRI and MSCT imaging data,and the quantity of embolic agent was administered correspondingly to the measured volume of AVM lesion and then,the therapeutic effect was observed.Results In 3 cases of this series,the volume of AVM lesions obtained by ROI volume measurement based on the imaging data were 7.515 cm3,1.195 cm3 and 10.714 cm3,respectively;gaining all the therapeutic satisfactory effects.However,the volume of the other case was not achieved because of the bilateral diffuse AVM with previous ligation of feeding arteries.Conclusions Soft tissue AVM can be best demonstrated on MRI and MSCT therefore can display AVM of jaw clearly.Pre-embolization of oral and maxillofacial AVM,the quantity of embolic agent(especially the liquid agent) can be estimated correctly by the ROI volume measurement used GE AW 4.1 software.

Objective To build a Palm Shengjing Hospital App to provide outpatients with convenient,intelligent and efficient informatized medical service.Methods The App was established based on smart phone,and after real-name registration the patient could execute appointment registration,queuing,mobile payment,report reading,hospital navigation and etc with the App.Results The App facilitated the patient in registration,queuing,payment,obtaining examination results and etc,and thus gained high patient satisfaction.Conclusion The App decreases the waiting time,optimizes the outpatient flow and increases the patient satisfaction.

Nitrogen mustard encapsulated with liposomes was administered to the rabbits with acute experimental serum sickness(AESS). Then the serum levels of anti-BSA antibodies and circulating; immune complex(CIC), CH50, and WBC count were determined. The ACPase activity of spleen macrophages was measured. And the sections of renal tissues, after HE-stained, were studied for the accumulation of CIC and the pathological changes. It was found that liposome-encapsulated nitrogen mustard can increase the macrophage activity and in turn aggravate the renal damages of AESS rabbits.The results suggest that the renal damages of AESS rabbits can immunopatholo-gically be attributed to the increased activity of macrophages.

Facing the diverse social environment and development, several aspects of higher clinic medical education,such as educational philosophy,personnel cultivating goal and mode,are undertaking all kinds of shift,which can be embodied in the medical curriculum reform.

Objective To compare the effects of total intravenous anesthesia or Intravenous-in-halation combined anesthesia on intraoperative somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP)and motor evoked potential (MEP)in spinal surgery.Methods Sixty patients scheduled for spinal surgery under general anesthesia were divided randomly and equally into 2 groups.The anesthesia was maintained with TCI propofol (plasma target concentration 3.0-3.5 μg/ml)and 1% sevoflurane+propofol in group T or group I respectively.BIS was monitored and maintained at 40-50.SSEP and MEP was re-corded before induction of anaesthesia (T0 ),5 minutes after tracheal intubation (T1 ),during skin in-cision (T2 )and at the time of decompressing spinal canal (T3 ).Results The latency of P38 and N45 prolonged,and the amplitudes of P38 and N45 was significantly depressed at T1-T3 compared to those at T0 (P <0.05).No statistically significant differences in cortical SSEP amplitudes or latency was observed in each time point.There was no case who could not detect the wave of MEP intraoperative-ly in this study.Conclusion The data from these cases indicates that 1% sevoflurane can be used in conjunction with SSEP and MEP monitoring for some adult patients undergoing spinal surgery.

Repeat prescription is adopted in Singapore as a convenient measure for patients with chronic diseases.On the one hand, it can avoid patients''inconvenience caused by frequent visits to hospitals.On the other hand, it reduces the waste of medical resources.In recent years, Singapore has also been using modern technology and measures to expand the medication refill service actively in order to enhance work efficiency, reduce waiting time and promote drug safety, thus to improve patients'' satisfaction.With the increasing medical pressure and the deepening of medical reform, the repeat prescription model in Singapore shows positive enlightenment to China.

Objective To study the effect of diabetic education on the patients using insulin treatment.Methods 41 cases of diabetes were trained in three different ways:group education,individual education and self education in the hospital for three to four weeks by a team of nurses.Results The results showed that the total average test score was increased by 4.44 after education.The average test scores was 9.37±0.45 after education and higher than before education (4.93±0.59) ( P <0.001).12.4% of the patients got full scores after education,34.1% of the patients got the excellent scores (≥8) before education.82.9% of patients got excellent scores after education.41.5% of the patients got low scores (<3) before education,and it was only 3.1% after education.For diabetic knowledge accumulating,the effects were significant ( P <0.001).The self care skill and knowledge such as self monitor of blood glucose and urine glucose,foot care were improved ( P <0.001).By education,diet control,exercise,oral hypoglycemic durgs and insulin treatment,FBS and PBS of patients were efficiently controled ( P <0.001).Conclusion Education is an important way for the patients to learn diabetic knowledge,improve the ability of self management
