The implementation of the Malpractice handling Regulations, which has set new and higher demands on medical institutions and medical workers, will have a certain impact on hospital administration and patient care. Medical institutions and medical workers must be highly aware of this. The entire staff of each hospital must study the Regulations carefully and try to obtain an objective understanding of it. Management of medical institutions must be strengthened, weak links identified, measures formulated and regulations perfected. Medical workers ought to strive for better professional skills, and supervision and management of medical records ought to be intensified.

Objective To investigate the relationship among early parenchymal enhancement,post- gadolinium(Gd)hyperintense middle cerebral artery(HMCA),and subsequent hemorrhagic transformation (HT)in patients with hyperacute ischemic stroke.Methods Twenty-four consecutive patients with ischemic stroke who underwent MRI within 6 h[(4.3?1.4)h]of symptom onset were retrospectively reviewed.All of these patients underwent at least one follow-up MRI or non-enhanced CT study at 2 to 7 days.Post-Gd T_1WI were analyzed for parenchymal enhancement and hyperintense MCA.Gradient echo MRI and CT were used for assessment of HT.Results Ten patients developed HT on follow-up imaging (hemorrhagic group).Early parenchymal enhancement was found in 6 patients with HT(P
5.Primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma: clinical analysis of 19 cases
Chinese Journal of General Practitioners 2010;9(5):320-323
Objective To study clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, as well as effect of surgical operation, of primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL).Methods Data of 19 patients of PMBCL with complete clinical and pathological records hospitalized at Peking Union Medical College Hospital during 1998 to 2008 were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed.Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate their survival time and survival rate in comparison of efficacy in those with surgical operation to those without it.Results Overall three-year survival rate was 54% for all the 19 patients, 55% for those with surgical operation and 54% without it, respectively, with an average survival time of 44 months, 44 months for those with surgical operation and 42 months without it, respectively, but not reaching at statistical significance.Symptoms of superior vena cava syndrome in five cases at admission relieved immediately after surgical operation, but symptoms of superior vena cava syndrome in three of nine cases in non-surgical group relieved gradually one to three weeks after chemotherapy.Conclusions Surgical operation has no significant effect on survival in patients with PMBCL, but it can relieve syndrome of superior vena cava syndrome and provide accurate pathological diagnosis.
7.Evaluation of serum ?-human chorionic gonadotropin and progesterone monitoring in medicinal conservative treatment for ectopic pregnancy
Journal of Shanghai Jiaotong University(Medical Science) 2006;0(04):-
Objective To investigate the value of serum?-human chorionic gonadotropin(?-HCG) and progesterone monitoring in medicinal conservative treatment for ectopic pregnancy. Methods Sixty patients with ectopic pregnancy treated with methotrexate were divideded into group A(n=39,?-HCG0.05).The time of serum progesterone level declining to normal level was significantly shorter than that of ?-HCG in both group A and group B(P

Objective To investigate the role of peripheral blood lymphocyte apoptosis through Fas/ Fas ligand pathway in the development of viral myocarditis. Methods Twenty-five viral myocarditis (VMC) and 25 healthy children were chosen for study. The apoptosis percentage in peripheral blood iymphocytes was quantitatively examined, flow cytometry with Annexin V/PI double parameter was used. And the expressions of Fas and Fasl protein in peripheral blood lymphocytes were analyzed with flow cytometry. Results The percentage of apoptosis in peripheral blood lymphocytes in children with VMC [(0. 6976 ± 0. 1109)%] was significantly higher than that of healthy children [(0. 1288 ± 0. 1069) %] (t = 18.459, P < 0.001). Moreover, the apoptosis cell percentage showed a significant positive correlation with the serum levels of myocardium enzyme (creatine kinase-MB, lactate dehydrogenase, creatine kinase, hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase)(r =0. 817 ,P <0. 01 ;r =0. 785 ,P <0.01 ;r =0. 726 ,P <0. 01 ;r =0. 712 ,P <0. 01). The expression of Fas and Fasl protein in VMC patients(2. 8804 ± 0. 3020,4. 4496 ± 0. 4836) were higher than those of health children(2. 1300 ±0. 6200,0. 1238 ±0. 0384) ,which had significant difference(t = 17. 321 ,P <0. 001 ;t' =44. 577, P < 0. 001). The apoptosis percentage of peripheral blood lymphocytes in children with VMC showed a significant positive correlation with the Fas and Fasl protein expression in peripheral blood lymphocytes(r =0. 972, P < 0. 01; r = 0. 958, P < 0. 01). Conclusion Apoptosis percentage of peripheral blood lymphocytes increases among children with VMC, probably because immune response decreased or it is related with the degree of myocardium damaged. Fas and Fasl play an important role in apoptosis of peripheral blood lymphocytes in children with VMC.

Objective To establish a database for models of teeth, which could provide a new technology for personal identification based upon teeth and bite mark for forensic medical practice. Method The (X, Y) digital coordinates were established based up on materials concerning shape and arrangement of the teeth by analyzing samples of 400 models of teeth. The position of every tooth's key point corresponding to the origin was obtained, thus, the characters of tooth and dental arch could be calculated rapidly according to Borland C ++ 5.0 computer language under DOS system. Results The models of teeth could be identified automatically. Among the correlative precision indexes, the length was 1.3mm, the angle was 3?. It seems reasonable to select 12-14 teeth points for studying, which needed about 5-7 complete tooth marks. Conclusion This method is one of the bases in studying personal identification relating to tooth and bite mark.

Objective To discuss the condition in which ricochet bullet wound is formed, study its ballistic characters and ability to damage in the body, and establish features for the diagnosis of ricochet bullet wound. Method We shot four Yorkshire pigs by selecting No.54 pistol (made in China) and No.56 semiautomatic rifle with No.51 pistol bullet and No.56 rifle bullet, using quern stone as ricocheting target, copied 12 cases of ricochet bullet wound models and observed the characters of entrance wound, wound cavity and cartridge point. Results The formation of ricochet bullet lies with the properties of the target, the shape and velocity of the bullet, angle of incidence and angle of ricochet; the angle of ricochet formed by sharp bullet with high velocity is smaller than the angle by the round bullet with low velocity under the same circumstance; the wound does not produce an evident temporary cavity; six features for the diagnosis were established according to experimented results. Conclusion The correct diagnosis of ricochet bullet wound is of practical value to judging direction and distance of shot, trajectory reconstruction, analysing purpose of shot and evaluation of injury degree.
