Objective To investigate the clinicopathological features,diagnosis and differential diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods Analyzed 96 cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma clinicopathological characteristics and reviewed the literature.Results Ninety-six cases were non-keratinizing nasopharyngeal carcinoma, the male-to-female ratio was 2.6:1. The mainly clinical symptoms was purulent bloody rhinorrhea and neck mass,which nasal endoscope could be seized,the mass lied in lateral wall of pharynx nasalis,tumor cells was broad-spectrum positive for CK and negative for LCA.Conclusions Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a common disease in this region,if nasal endoscope biopsy less accurate or the performance is not typical,may be confused with reactive lesion and lymphoma,which should be combined with clinical data,endoscopic features and immunohistochemical characteristics to identify.

Objective To evaluate the accuracy of different methods for estimating blood loss during burn wound excixion and skin grafting in pediatric patients with severe burn. Methods Twenty pediatric patients of both sexes aged 7 days-8 yr weighing 4-22 kg undergoing burn wound excision and skin grafting were enrolled in this clinical study. Two methods were used for estimating blood loss during operation: Method Ⅰ: surgical surface area (SSA). MethodⅡ: the product of SSA and blood volume (BV). Total blood loss was calculated: total blood loss = BV ( Hct0 - Hctx ) ÷ Hct0 + Tx. Hct0 =Hct before operation. Hctx =Hct at the end of operation. Tx =total amount of blood transfusion. Results The correlation between the total blood loss and SSA was 0.776. The correlation between the total blood loss and the product of SSA and BV was 0.889. The difference was statistically significant. Conclusion The product of SSA and BV is more accurate in estimating blood loss during burn wound excision and skin grafting in children with severe burn.

Background and purpose:Indensity modulated radiotherapy(IMRT) is an advanced method in radiotherapy field.Divect machine optimization technique is an good aritmetic for IMRT optimization.The purpose of this study was to compare the dosimetric differences between traditional technique and direct machine parameter optimization(DMPO) technique in the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) using step and shoot IMRT.Methods:Eleven patients of(NPC) were treated with step and shoot IMRT in Cancer Hospital,Fudan University from Feb.2005 to May 2006.Their plans(original plan,defined as treat) were archived for comparing with four kinds of IMRT plans(defined as DMPO100,DMPO90,DMPO80,DMPO70) with different predefined maximum number of segments(100,90,80,70,respectively),which were designed to use direct machine parameter optimization(DMPO) technique.We compared the total monitor units(MU),total segments,dose distribution and conformity index among the plans.Results:All the plans showed similar target coverage.Compared with traditional technique,IMRT plans with DMPO technique showed higher conformity index,and had similar uniformity except plan DMPO70.The dose distributions of DMPO100 and DMPO90 were similar or superior to the original plan(treat) in terms of critical organs.Without sacrificing plan quality,the total segments were about half of traditional plan if DMPO technique was used for planning.Moreover,the total monitor units(MUs) and the radiation time were decreased.Conclusions:Compared with traditional technique,plans designed with DMPO technique show sharp decrease in total segments without sacrificing plans quality in the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC).The DMPO technique can also decrease the total MUs and radiation time.

Objective: To investigate the changes of haemodynamics, pulmonary mechanics and blood gas in volume controlled and pressure controlled ventilatory patterns during one-lung ventilation (OLV). Methods: 20 patients with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) underwent left thoracotomy PDA ligation with right OLV. The patients were divided into three groups: two-lung ventilation with volume controlled (TLV-VCV), one-lung ventilation with volume controlled (OLV-VCV), and one-lung ventilation with pressure controlled (OLV-PCV). After two-lung ventilation with VCV, one-lung ventilation was started by VCV and the ventilation mode was then switched to PCV. All measurements were made 25 min after initiation of the ventilation mode. The respiratory mechanics index was measured by side stream spirometry (SSS), including peak airway pressure (Ppeak), plateau pressure (Pplat), airway resistance (Raw), lung compliance (Cdyn) and inspiratory and expiratory minute ventilation (Mvi, Mve). Cardiac output (CO), stroke volume (SV), systemic vascular resistance (SVR), left ventricular ejectiontime (LVETi), and aortic blood flow acceleration (ACC) were also measured, by using the transesophageal Doppler (TED) monitor. Arterial blood gases was determined in every ventilation mode. Results: Ppeak、Pplat and Raw were significantly higher during OLV-VCV than that during TLV-VCV (P

Oral fluid resuscitation in early period of hypovolemic shock is an important measure in the treatment of casualties in the battlefield as well as in mass casualties in lieu of the means of establishing a venous line. The main tasks in the study of oral rehydration resuscitation are the proposition of appropriate prescriptions of the liquids to be given and methods of administration on the basis of a clear elucidation of the mechanism underlying the function of the digestive system in regard to transportation and absorption of the given ingredients. The aim of the study is to fully replenish maximal amount of fluid containing glucose and electrolytes in a convenient, expeditious, and effective way in a minimal span of time, in order to increase circulating blood volume. At the same time, ischemia and tolerance to oral fluids of the gastro-intestinal tract should be improved, electrolyte imbalance and incidence of secondary infection should be alleviated, and finally hypovolemic shock is corrected, so that the victim is kept alive and prepared for further definitive surgical intervention.

Objective To investigate the effect of different modes of one-lung ventilation ( OLV) on respiratory mechanics, hemodynamics and arterial oxygen tension ( PaO2) in pediatric patients. Methods Thirty-four ASA Ⅰ - Ⅱ patients (14 male, 20 female) aged 2-10 yr, weighing 8-26 kg undergoing abdominal surgery or operations on extremities were enrolled in this study. The patients were premedicated with intramuscular phenobarbital 2-3 mg ? kg-1 and atropine 0.015 mg ? kg-1 . In the operating room the patients were given intramuscular midazolam 0.25 mg? kg-1 and ketamine 2.5 mg ? kg-1 before intravenous line and EGG, NIBP and SpO2 monitoring were established. Anesthesia was induced with intravenous fentanyl 3-5 ?g kg-1 and vecuronium 0.1 mg? kg-1 and maintained with isoflurane inhalation supplemented with intermittent iv boluses of fentanyl and vecuronium. In patients aged over 5 yr Univent (Fuji Corpi) was inserted and left main bronchus was blocked during OLV. In patients less than 5 yr ordinary tracheal tube was inserted and was advanced into right main bronchus during OLV. Correct positioning of the tube was checked by fiberoptic bronchoscopy or auscultation. The test consisted of three steps : firstly two-lung ventilation (TLV) with volume-control mode; secondly OLV with volume-control mode;lastly OLV with pressure-control mode. During first and second step VT was set at 8-10 ml kg-1 and respiratory rate was adjusted to maintain PETCO2 between 4.5-6.0 kPa. During the third step (OLV with pressure-control mode) the inspiratory pressure was set according to the plateau pressure during step 1 and 2 (volume-control mode). Each step was maintained for 25 min before respiratory mechanics , hemodynamics and PaO2 were measured and recorded.Results During OLV with volume-control mode (second step) , peak pressure (Ppeak), plateau pressure (Pplat) and airway resistance (Raw) were significantly higher but dynamic compliance was significantly lower, cardiac output (CO) and stroke volume (SV) were significant lower but systemic vascular resistance (SVR) was significantly higher and PaO2 was significantly lower than those during first step (two lung ventilation with volume-control mode) (P

The effect of hydrazine on blue membrane was investigated by the UV/VIS absorption spectrum technique and the flash photolysis technique, the results show that: hydrazine can convert blue membrane to purple membrane and the photocycle returns, but the rate of decay of photcycle intermediate(M412) quickens, this phenomenon is not seen when metal cations are added to blue omembrane solution(the rate of decay of photcycle intermediate slowers). At the same time , the effect of pH and temperature on the interaction between hydrazine and blue membrane was investigated. When hydrazine was added to blue membrane solution, the sensitivity of the reaction is pH and temperature dependent. Over the pH range(2～4.8), the sensitivity of the reaction lowers with the increase of the acidity. Over the temperature range(20～40℃), the sensitivity of the reaction lowers with the increase of the temperature.
