To observe the clinical effect of compound Yimucao oral liquid on postpartum lochiorrhea. Methods:A to-tal of 200 patients with postpartum lochiorrhea were randomly divided into the observation group ( 100 cases ) and the control group (100 cases). The patients in the observation group received 20ml compound Yimucao oral liquid three times a day for seven days, while those in the control group were given 15g Yimucao granules three times a day for seven days. After the treatment, the duration, amount, color and quality of lochia, lower abdominal pain, uterine involution and the status of postpartum infection in the two groups were compared. Results: The total effective rate in the observation (94. 0%) was higher than that in the control group(84. 0%). Compared with that in the control group, less average hemostasis time, better situation of abdominal pain, uterine involution and lower postpartum infection rate in the observation group were observed after the treatment(P<0. 05). Conclusion:Compound Yimucao oral liquid can promote the uterine involution. It’ s effective and safe in the treatment of postpartum lochirrhea.

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome is a clinical imaging syndrome associated with multiple pathogenic factors.The main clinical manifestations were headache,seizures,psychotic symptoms,visual disturbance,disturbance of consciousness,etc.The parieto-occipital reversible white matter lesions are the main manifestations of the imaging.If this disease can be diagnosed and treated in time,the clinical symptoms and imaging changes of most patients can be disappeared.If the diagnosis and treatment cannot be obtained in time,it may happen some irreversible damage,serious and even life-threatening,so it is very important to strengthen the understanding,diagnosis and treatment of this disease.At present,the pathogenesis of the disease is still not clear,now reviewed its pathogenesis and imaging manifestation in order to strengthen the clinician's understanding of the disease's pathophysiological mechanism and improve the level of diagnosis.

ObjectiveTo explore the potential value of diffusion weighted imaging(DWI) in the clinical diagnosis of soft-tissue tumors.MethodsDiffusion-weighted MRI was performed in 48 histologically proven soft-tissue tumor cases using diffusion-weighted spin-echo sequences.Of the 48 soft-tissue tumor cases,there were 28 cases of sarcoma and 20 cases of benign tumor.The apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC) values of a large region with no necrosis,scar tissue,hemorrhage or calcification representing the lesion were measured.ADC values of benign tumors,malignant tumors and normal muscles were compared.ResultsThe ADC value of the malignant tumors (0.95 ± 0.31 )× 10-3mm2/s was significantly lower than that of benign lesions( 1.87 ±0.66) × 10-3mm2/s and muscles( 1.62 ±0.50) × 10 -3mm2/s.There was no significant difference in ADC value between benign lesions and muscles.Sensitivity(75％ ) and specificity(89％ ) were obtained when the ADC value was 1.38 × 10-3mm2/s in the differentiation of benign and malignant tumors.ConclusionDiffusion-weighted MRI had potential value in differentiating benign softtissue tumors from malignant ones.

In order to investigate the features of multidetector CT (MDCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as well as the corresponding pathogic basis of solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) in the pelvis, we collected the clinical data of 13 patients with pathologically confirmed SFT in pelvis, and retrospectively reviewed the MDCT and MRI appearances. Of these enrolled patients, 6 received MDCT scans, 5 underwent MRI scans, and 2 underwent both MDCT and MRI examinations. Shown on the MDCT and MRI, the maximum diameters of the masses ranged from 4.0 to 25.2 cm (averaged 11.8 cm). Six masses were lobulated, and seven were round or oval. In addition, all masses were well-defined and displaced the adjacent structures to some degrees. On the computed tomography, all masses were of isodensity on unenhanced scans in general, among which five masses were demonstrated with hypodense areas. On the MRI T1-weighted image, all lesions were isointense, of which patchy hypointense areas were detected in 3 cases and radial hypointense areas were in 3 cases, and the other one was presented with homogenous intensity. On T2-weighted images, most of the lesions were mixed hyperintense, of which 3 cases were of heterogenous hyperintesity, radial hypointense areas were detected in 3 patients, and the other one was homogenously intense. On enhanced computed tomography and MRI, large supplying vessels were found in 4 cases; 12 cases showed moderate to conspicuous enhancement, and the other one was presented with mild homogenous enhancement. Of the patients with moderate to conspicuous enhancement, patchy areas of non-enhancement were detected in 7 cases, radial areas of progressive enhancement were detected in 3 cases, and the remained 2 cases showed homogenous enhancement. On pathology, the radial area presented as progressive enhancement was fibrosis. During the follow-ups after surgery, 2 patients had local recurrence and 1 had metastasis to liver. In conclusion, the SFT in the pelvis are commonly presented as a large solid, well-defined and hypervascular mass with necrosis or cystic changes at some extents together with the displacement of adjacent structures. The radial area with hypointensity on T2-weighted image and with progressive enhancement on enhanced magnetic resonance imaging is an important feature of SFT, which can be helpful for the diagnosis of this mass.

Objective To assess the diagnostic value of multiple-slice spiral CT (MSCT) perfusion imaging technique in pancreatic cancer by measuring and comparing the dynamical characteristics of blood flow between normal pancreas and pancreatic cancer. Methods The CT perfusion imaging were obtained using Siemens Somatoma MSCT scanner in 44 patients with normal pancreas tissue and 18 patients with pancreatic cancer. The mean blood flow (BF),blood volume (BV), time to start (Trs), time to peak (TIP), permeability and patlak blood volume (pBV) were measured and statistically analyzed by using Siemens Body peHusion software package. Results The mean BF, BV, Trs, TIP, permeability and pBV of normal pancreas were: (90.60±29.25) ml·100 ml-1·min-1, (190.35±43.8) ml/L, (205.3±160.2) s, (1403.5±334.0)s, (99.47±49.9) 0.5 ml·100 ml-1·min-1, (157.8±52.5) ml/L, respectively. The mean BF, BV, TTS, TrP, per-meability and pBV of pancreatic cancer were (22.9±10. 63) ml·100 ml-1·min-1, (52.38±18.08) ml/L, (194.3±76.0) s, (1549.5± 308.5)s, (115.25±33.55) 0.5 ml·100 ml-1·min-1, (83.16±41.45) ml/L respectively. The mean BF, BV, pBV and permeability between normal pancreas and pancreatic carcinoma were statistically significant (P<0.01). However the mean TTS and TIP between normal pancreas and pancreatic carcinoma were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion There are significant differences between perfusion values of pancreatic carcinoma and normal pancreatic tissue, and MSCT perfusion imaging is helpful in diagnosing pancreatic carcinoma.
