To improve the precision of image registration based on corner detection, a relative position function between multiple points to determine matching points accurately. First the corners in images are detected using Harris detector, and clustering method is used to eliminate most wrong matches after coarse screening. Then the proposed relative position function is used as a criterion of precise matching. Finally the image registration process is accomplished by affine transformation. Results show that the proposed algorithm is more effective and accurate than conventional registration algorithm.

Objective To summarize the clinical result of patients undergoing endoscopic vein harvest (EVH) technology to collect greater saphenous vein (GSV) in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) operation, and to assess the operation outcome of EVH. Methods A total of 862 patients underwent primary CABG, among whom saphenous vein of 482 patients were taken using EVH, and the others by open vein harvesting (OVH) based on patients' willingness. The operation risk factors and complication were compared between the two groups. The 64 multi-slice computed tomography (64-MSCTA) was used to evaluate the vein grafts patency after surgery for 1 year. The vein patency between the two groups was compared. Results There was no significant difference in risk factors of incision complication between two groups ( P>0.05). But the incidence of various incision complication was significantly lower in EVH group (10.2%,49/482) compared with that in OVH group (35.0%,133/380) ( P<0.05). The time of harvesting and the length of conduits was similar between two groups (P>0.05). After 1 year's follow-up, the vein graft patency were 86.0%(404/470) and 87.1%(324/372) in EVH group and OVH group, and there was no significant difference ( P>0.05). Conclusions The decrease in incision complication of EVH is unquestionably superior to those of OVH, especially for those patients with risk factors of incision complication. The EVH vein graft has good patency in short time.

Objective To summarize the clinical treatment experience of blood culture-negative infective endocarditis,and to explore the surgery chance and therapeutic strategy of blood culture-negative endocarditis. Methods One hundred and sixty-six patients who were diagnosed blood culture-negative endocarditis in the Aisa Heart Hospital of Wuhan from Jul. 2008 to Dec. 2012 were recruited in the study. Broad-spectrum antibiotics including cefuroxime axetil and levofloxacin were used before the result of blood culture,and sensitive antibiotics were selected to control patient's condition when getting the result of blood culture. But broad-spectrum antibiotics were continuously used to the blood culture-negative endocarditis until stable condition. When the conditions were stable,active preparation before surgery should be carried out. Thoroughly clear the vegetation and protect the cardiorespiratory function during operating. Kata-step antibiotics were used to control patient's condition until normal temperature,as well as the number of leukocytes decreased,blood sedimentation normalized and C-reaction protein decreased. Then,the narrow-spectrum antibiotics were selected including cephalosporin until discharged from hospital,and continued treatment of antibiotics for 4 - 6 weeks. Results Five patients died after the operation,including 1 case died of low cardiac output syndrome,2 cases died of multiple organ failure,1 case died of septicemia and the 1 case died of cerebral embolism. All the other patients discharged from hospital successfully. Conclusion The patients with blood culture-negative IE should be controlled rapidly. The duration and dose of antibiotics should be enough. Active operative preparation should be taken and then surgery timely. Thus,the hospital mortality could decrease and prompt the long-term outcome.

Objective To explore the diagnosis and treatment of iatrogenic bile duct injury during choledochocystectomy. Methods Clinical data of 24 cases of iatrogenic bile duct injury were analyzed retrospectively from 2005 to 2009. Results Eight patients underwent early repair of bile duct within 4 days after the injury. 14 patients with later recognized bile duct injury underwent selective operations, and two patients were discharged after their jaundice were relieved without any surgical treatment. Supporting T tubes were left in place in 22 patients for 8 to 14 months after operations, without any biliary obstruction found after one year and six months to five year follow-up. Conclusions Early bile duct injury within 4 days was easily treated, but later bile duct injury should have selective operation. The patients with jaundice could be diagnosed with PTCD and ERCP to observe the bile duct injury. During operation membrane-to-membrane wide hepatojejunostomy helps prevent later anastomotic stenosis. The left in drainage tube in anastomotic stoma for more than 8 months improves success rate in the process of injuried bile duct repair.

Objective: This study explores the miR-150 expression and its clinical significance in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Methods: The miR-150 and c-Myc expression was measured in 29 primary MCL tissue samples and 7 normal donors through quantita-tive real-time polymerase chain reaction. MiR-150 expression was detected in Mino and HBL-2 cells after c-Myc was knocked down by small interfering RNAs. MiR-150 was analyzed in tet-treated P493-6 cells with Myc turned off. The number of tumor colonies in the BL-2 cells transfected with pre-miR-150 was determined through colony formation assay, and c-Myb was detected through Western blot. Results: Compared with the normal donors, miR-150 expression was significantly downregulated and c-Myc was considerably overexpressed in MCL. Moreover, MCLs with high Myc expression had a significantly low miR-29 expression. MiR-150 was upregu-lated in the Mino and HBL-2 cells with c-Myc knockdown. MiR-150 was evidently upregulated in P493-6 cells after c-Myc was turned off. MiR-150 overexpression suppressed colony formation and c-Myb expression of HBL-2. Conclusion: MiR-150 is downregulated in MCL, which may be related to c-Myc overexpression. The recovery of miR-150 suppresses MCL cell survival. These results indicate that miR-150 may be a potential therapeutic target of MCL.
