Objective To evaluate the long-term curative effect of bronchial artery embolization on massive hemoptysis in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods Bronchial arterial embolization with PVA grain and silk segment was performed in 42 cases of patients with hemoptysis of secondary pulmonary tuberculosis. Of them, 27 cases were bilateral pulmonary tuberculosis and 15 lateralized. The bloody bronchial arteries were confirmed by bronchial arteriography, and the PVA grains or silk segments were injected slowly into the target vessels until hemorrhage stopped. Results After one time embolization, hemoptysis stopped immediately in 34 cases, 7 cases still had little hemoptysis,and one case of hemorrhage was unable to be controlled. The short-term efficacious rate was 97.6%,and no severe complications occurred. Followed up 6 months to 7 years after treatment,24 cases were clinical cure,7 cases obviously effective,5 cases effective,and 6 cases recurrent.The long-term effective rate is 85.7%. Conclusion Embolization of bronchial artery with PVA grain and silk segment was a safe and effective method for controlling hemoptysis of pulmonary tuberculosis, and its combination with anti-tuberculosis treatment could consolidate the curative effect.

Bronchoscopy is a minimally invasive method for obtaining peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPL). Traditional bronchoscopy-guided transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) is performed under X-ray guidance, and diagnostic rate is relatively low. A new, real-time electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) is a minimally invasive diagnostic technique which appeared in recent years. Studies suggest ENB is a feasible and safe method for diagnosis of PPL which shows higher diagnostic yields than traditional TBLB, and its potential application in localization and treatment of PPL. This article reviews the clinical application of the technique.

Objective The purpose of this study was to examine the status quo of the perceptions of professional benefits in the clinical teachers of nursing,analyze the influencing factors and put forward effective measures to improve it.Methods A convenience sample of 117 nurse preceptors in 4 teaching hospitals participated by completing a two-part questionnaire the Preceptor's Perception of Benefits and Rewards Scale and a demographic questionnaire.Results The total average score of benefits and rewards to the preceptor role was(63.64±9.93) points,low than the study done by Hyrkas(2007) in American.Nurse preceptors in different nursing unit felt different benefits and rewards to the preceptor role.Medicine unit and surgical unit were higher than Pediatrics unit.The longer time of being preceptor,the higher score of benefits and rewards to the preceptor role.Conclusions The score of benefits and rewards to the preceptor role is low.Hospitals should increase support for clinical teaching program,particularly pediatrics.Nurse managers should adjust promotion opportunities,workload,rewards of nurse preceptors to meet the needs of nurses in clinical teaching and to improve teaching effectiveness.

Objective　To investigate the possible roles of the different subnuclei of hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus （PNV） which may regulate splenic immune function. Methods　4 SD rats received splenic injection of pseudorabies virus（PRV）.96 hours after injection， a block containing hypothalamus was taken and cut into 40 μm sections with cryostat. Immunohistochemical technique and stereology method were used to detect the distributing character of transsynaptic PRV infection neurons in the PVN and the localization relationship between PRV neurons and AVP neurons in the PVN.Results　Transsynaptic PRV infection neurons distributed through out the PVN， but mainly concentrated in the lateral parvocellular （LP） subnucleus of PVN and posterior magnocellular （PM） subnuclei of PVN （occupied 73.49％ of total surface area），a few distributed in the anterior， dorsal and periventricular parvocellular （AP，DP and PP）nuclei of PVN，few scatted in the rest of nuclei of PVN. In the LP and PM some of the PRV neurons distributed among the AVP neurons.Conclusions　Besides the classical neuro-immuno-endocrine modulation， the PVN may regulate the splenic immune function through direct innervation .The AVP neurons in the PM and neurons projecting to the proganglionic neurons in the dorsal medulla and lateral horn of spinal cord in the LP，DP and AP regulate the immune function of spleen through sympathetic and para-sympathetic innovation.

Objective To evaluate early diagnostic and guiding therapeutic value of MRI in children’s acute supparative osteomyelitis.Methods The axis,sagittal and coronal planes were performed with Philips 0.5 T superconduct MR scanner in 16 cases with acute suppurative osteomyelitis of lower extremity 2 to 14 days after onset.Results Abnormal signals in marrow were displayed in all 15 cases 3 to 14 days after onset. No abnormality was found in 1 case 2 days after onset. The interface between nomal and abnormal marrow became clear as time going on. The lesion presented as patchy low intensity on T 1WI and high signal on T 2WI. The signal changes were marked especially on STIR. Acording to MR imaging, all cases were divided into abscess type and non-abscess type.Abscess were operated and non-abscess were not. The mean follow up was 1 year, cure rate was 100%.Conclusion MRI is of significant value in early diagnosis and guiding therapy of acute suppurative osteomyelitis.

Objective To investigate the role of macrophage?derived Act1 (nuclear factor kappa B activator 1) in the inflammatory bowel disease. Methods Genetically engineered mice carrying targeted suppression of Act1 in the mac?rophages (Anti?Act1) were used for the dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)?induced ulcerative colitis. The severity of colitis was assessed by weight loss, stool consistency, fecal blood index, colorectal length and H&E histology. The infiltration of CD45 + leukocytes and CD68 + macrophages in the inflammatory intestine was observed by immunohistochemical staining and expression levels of mRNA for inflammatory cytokines in colon tissues were analyzed by RT?qPCR. Results As com?pared with C57 mice, the anti?Act1 mice exhibited less severe acute colitis following DSS treatment, with reduced CD45 +leukocyte and CD68 + macrophage infiltrates in the colon tissue. Inflamed colons of the anti?Act1 mice expressed lower mR?NA levels of TNF?α, IL?1βand IL?6. Conclusions Targeted suppression of Act1 in the macrophages ameliorates dextran sodium sulfate?induced intestinal inflammation.

Objective To explore the value of intravenous low dose furosemide on visualization of upper urinary tract during CTU. Methods 39 cases of normal upper urinary samples were examined by CTU with 5 minutes delayed,19 cases underwent intravenous injection of furosemide.The upper urinary tract was divided into 5 parts for scoring of images on a 5 score scales for opacification,the average value of ureter short axis of distention,and CT value by contrast material were measured.Results were analyzed by t test using SPSS.Results (1)30/38 segments of upper urinary tract were all or almost all opacification in furosemide group,the scores of upper urinary tract were higher than that of the control group,which had significant difference except the pelvis and left proximal ureter segments. (2)The disention of the ureter was significantly higher for all segments in furosemide group.(3)CT values in furosemide group decreased significantly for all upper urinary tract.Conclusion CTU excretory phase image acquisition with intravenous low dose furosemide is helpful on visualization of upper urinary tract.

The accurate location of acupoints is the prerequisite for the efficacy of acupuncture-moxibustion. Bone-length measurement, bone-proportional measurement, and proportional unit of the body measurement are commonly used in clinic for acupoints location. Based on the systematic review of the ancient literatures, this article discussed the meaning, evolution and relations of bone-length measurement, bone-proportional measurement, and proportional unit of the body measurement. It’s concluded that the bone-length measurement should be a benchmark in ancient anthropometry and an important basis for acupoints location. Bone proportional measurement, used in different genders, ages and body sizes, was based on the relatively stable proportional relations of various body parts, though some of the standards were adjusted in accordance with the correlation between meridians and acupoints. Location of points by proportional unit of the body simplified the application of bone-length measurement and bone proportional measurement, based on the ratio between short and long bones or the ratio of same body parts in anthropometry. However, proportional unit of the body measurement should be applied for the specific body parts. Bone-length measurement, bone-proportional measurement, and proportional unit of the body measurement are correspondingly the benchmark measurement, relative measurement, and simplified measurement.
