LINGO optimization software was used to determine the optimal purchase scheme.Results The model acquired was applied to medical equipment purchase demonstration in some hospital, so that the purchase scheme was formed rapidly as desired.Conclusion The model may promote hospital medical equipment purchase demonstration and provide references for equipment selection.

0.05). No significant differences were detected in the median time of remission, median survival time and 1-, 2-year survival rates between the groups. Moreover, no significant differences were detected in the grade Ⅲ～Ⅳ leukopenia, grade Ⅲ～Ⅳ thrombocytopenia, grade Ⅲ～Ⅳ nausea and vomiting and grade Ⅲ～Ⅳ constipation between the groups. Conclusions:The response rate of the MVP regimen is slightly lower than the HMVP regimen, but the HMVP regimen is not noticeably superior. It may increase the toxicity such as leukopenia, nausea/vomiting and constipation, as wellas being more expensive. In short, MVP regimen should be selected between the regimens in the chemotherapy of advanced NSCLC.

Purpose:To investigate the value of susceptibility-weighted imaging(SWI)in evaluating the histopathologic grade of cerebral astrocytomas.Materials and Methods: 18 patients with histologically proven cerebral astrocytomas,including 7 diffuse astrocytomas,3 ana-plastic astrocytomas and 8 glioblastomas before treatment were involved in this study.The features on SWI were analyzed in 18 cerebral astrocytomas.Results: The veins in the tumors were not detected in 7 diffuse astrocytomas.Slight edema round tumors appeared in all the diffuse astrocytomas.Plenty veins in the tumors and severe edema round the tumors appeared in 3 anaplastic astrocytomas and 8 glioblastomas.The hemorrhagic foci were detected in 1 anaplastic astrocytomas and 6 glioblastomas.The edema round the tumors were moderate or severe in all the anaplastic astrocytomas or glioblastomas.Conclusions: Susceptibility-weighted imaging can provide the informations about blood supply,hemorrhagic focus and edema round the tumors.SWI is very useful for preoperative evaluation of the histopathologic grade of cerebral astrocytomas,especially for evaluation of high or low grade astrocytomas.

Objective To discuss the application value of multislice CT (MSCT) in diagnosis of ureteral biology variation and diseases.Methods The MSCT data of 51 patients with suspected ureteral biology variation and diseases were retrospectively analyzed.The data of MSCT images included plain scan,renal cortical phase,renal parenchyma phase and excretion phase.The MSCT images of renal cortical phase,renal parenchyma phase and excretion phase were reconstructed respectively to gain the 3D images of renal arteries,veins and urinary passage.Results Among the 51 patients,1 patient with traumatic ureteral rupture,10 patients with ureteral biology variation diseases,14 patients with stone of ureter,2 patients with polyp of ureter,3 patients with non-specificity ureteritis,3 patients with tuberculosis of ureter,1 patient with endometriosis,17 patients with carcinoma of ureter.Satisfied 3D images of renal arteries,veins and urinary passage could be reconstructed.And the imaging diagnosis of 51 patients were all in accord with their clinical diagnosis or pathologic diagnosis.Conclusion MSCT can obtain high qualified images,and this technique should become the preferred inspection item of ureteral biology variation and diseases.

Methods 28 cases of femoral neck fracture who had been treated with operation and traction and observed for 6 to 9 months suffered from nonunion. The 28 cases of nonunion were treated by vascular pedicle bone graft and compound bone matrical gelatin. The progress of bone healing, complications such as necrosis of femoral head, and joint function were followed up after operation. Results All the 28 cases healed. The function of joint was evaluated according to Jacobs criteria. It was excellent in 19 cases, fine in 7 cases, and poor in 2 cases. Conclusion The vascular pedicle bone graft combined with BMG is the effective choice for treatment of nonunion of femoral neck fracture in adolescents and adults, because it has the double effects of bone grafting and bone induction.

Objective To investigate the therapy efficiency and complication prevention in patients undergoing radiofrequency current catheter ablation combined with multiple X-ray projecting angles.Methods Two hundred and six atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) patients were involved in this study. The distance between the tip of His and the ostium of coronary sinus were measured under different X-ray projecting angles respectively, including posterior anterior (PA), right anterior oblique 30° (RAO 30° ) and left anterior oblique 45° (LAO 45° ) in each patient, and mapping was proceeding under the corresponding X-ray projecting angles with the longest distance. The distance between ablating catheter and His was confirmed again before powering by the other two X-ray projecting angles. Results The longest distance between the tip of His and the ostium of coronary sinus were obtained in 66,75 and 65 patients under PA,RAO 30° and LAO 45° respectively(P＞ 0.05 ),and the data were (2.94 ± 0.87), (2.98 ± 0.76)and (2.91 ± 0.52) cm(P＞ 0.05). Transient first or second degree of atrioventricular blocking was observed in 4 cases among 22 high risk patients in which the powering sites were above the medium level of the distance between the tip of His and the ostium of coronary sinus under three kinds of X-ray projecting angles obviously.However,only 1 case was observed in other 184 patients(P＜ 0.01 ). All patients were cured successfully and no permanent atrioventricular blocking occurred. Conclusion Radiofrequency current catheter ablation combined with multiple X-ray projecting angles is helpful to increasing the successful rate and preventing complication in ablating therapy.
