Objective To evaluate color Doppler ultrasonography(CDU) in the diagnosis of intraocular tumor. Methods Two hundred seventy-three cases(301 eye) of intraocular space-occupying lesions were examinated by high-resolution CDU to observe the two-dimensional gray-scale image and vasculature of intraocular tumors. Results Intratumor calcifying spot could be detected in 138 cases(149 eye) of 153 cases(178 eye) with retinoblastoma,and intratumor blood flow with branchy pattern could be found in 152(177 eye) of 153 cases(178 eye) with retinoblastoma. In 4 Coats disease and 2 persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous and 3 retinopathy of prematurity, intratumor calcifying spot couldn′t be detected,and the band blood flow of the detached retinal vessels could be detected. Intratumor blood flow with branchy pattern could be detected in all 66 choroidal melanomas and 4 melanomas of ciliary body with infiltrated choroid and 15 of 19 choroidal metastases. Intratumor blood flow with “simulating vessel pool” or conglomerate sparkled pattern could be found in 12 choroidal hemangioma. No intrinsic flow was detected in 8 choroidal hemorrhages or subretinal hemorrhages and 2 teratoid medulloepitheliomas. Conclusions CDU is of significance in the diagnosis and differention of intraocular tumors.

Objective To investigate the effect of Beraprost Sodium and atorvastatin in the treatment of TIA combined carotid plaques. Method 60 cases in our hospital with TIA and carotid artery plaques were randomly divided into observation group and control group, 30 cases in each group. The observation group was received beraprost natriuretic peptide and atorvastatin calcium therapy, the control group was treated with atorvastatin calcium. 12 months later,two groups were compared with carotid plaque area change and coagulation conditions. Results Carotid plaque area in observed group was significantly less than the control group (P<0.05). The differences of platelet agglutination test(PAgT), fibrinogen(Fg) , hypersensieive 3 C-reaction protein, total cholesterol(TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), TIA recurrence rate and incidence of ischemic stroke between two groups after treatment were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Beraprost Sodium and atorvastatin has a good effect in reducing carotid plaques area, adjusting blood fat and preventing TIA and ischemic stroke, It is worthy to clinical popularization and application.

AIM: To investigate a new method for identification of traditional Chinese medicine injection by FTIR. METHODS: For the steadiness of spectra, the factors of effecting spectrum's information quality were all investigated scientifically over the experiment procedures and instrumental setting, such as the preparation of samples, resolution ratio, scanning times, repeating scanning times, etc. The traditional Chinese medicine injections were used as the analytical samples such as Radix Isatidis, Rhizoma Chuanxiong, Flos Carthami, Radix Astragali and Herba Houttuyniae. RESULTS: Although all these original spectrums were similar at a certain degree, the FTIR combined with computer aided analysis, such as the cluster analysis and derivative spectrometry comparability calculation could be used to identify these injections. CONCLUSION: The method of identification by FTIR is non destructive testing, cheap, clean, fast, simple and convenient. The result indicates this method is suitable for establishing identification database of traditional Chinese medicine injections.

PurposeTo discuss the imaging features of multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) and PET/CT in lymphoma with pulmonary lesions as the initial presentation.Materials and Methods Eighteen cases of lymphoma with pulmonary lesions as initial presentation confirmed by operation and pathology were retrospectively analyzed including Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) in 3 cases and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in 15 cases. All 18 patients underwent MSCT, of which 11 also underwent PET/CT. The MSCT manifestations included number of lesions, morphology, density and bronchial change. PET/CT evaluated lesions in other body parts and SUVmax of lung lesions.Results MSCT showed single lung lesion in 6 cases, multiple lung lesions in 12 cases. Masses were seen in 9 cases, non-masses in 7 cases, and mixed type in 2 cases. There was single consolidation in 3 cases and mixed consolidation in 15 cases. Air bronchogram was identified in 15 cases. CT predictive diagnosis was lymphoma in 3 cases, lung cancer in 5 cases, pneumonia in 7 cases, granuloma in 1 patient, and indeterminate in 2 cases. PET/CT showed hypermetabolic lung lesions in 11 patients, mediastinal lymph node in 3 cases, and unilateral supraclavicular lymphadenopathy in 1 case. One patient showed pancreatic tail masses, gastric wall thickening and haunch masses. All 11 patients were diagnosed as malignant tumor, of which 8 cases as lymphoma.Conclusion MSCT manifestations of lymphoma with pulmonary lesions as initial presentation include multiple lesions, polymorphic type and heterogeneity with air bronchogram. PET/CT has better accuracy than MSCT.

PurposeTo investigate the multi-slice spiral CT features of lung primary invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma, a rare malignancy with few relevant literature. Materials and Methods Forty-one patients with pathology proven primary invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma of the lungs underwent MSCT examination, of which 27 patients received intravenous contrast. Imaging features were analyzed, and the patients were divided into groups according to morphology, density and enhancement.Results For 41 patients, 40 cases had one lesion, and one case had more than one lesion; the lesions were in the right upper lobe in 5 cases, right middle lobe in one case, right lower lobe in 17 cases, left upper lobe in 5 cases, and left lower lobe in 12 cases. There was solitary lesion in 40 cases. The other patient had multiple lesions. 29 cases showed nodules/masses, while non-mass lesions in 12 cases. Ground glass opacity was seen in 4 cases, single consolidation in 11 cases, and mixed consolidation in 26 cases. There was significant contrast enhancement in nodules/masses compared to non-mass lesions (t=5.00, 6.51 and 14.06,P<0.05).Conclusion MSCT shows a diversity of imaging features of primary invasive mucinous adenocarcinom, including single round lesion, lower lobe in both side; the density is lower than muscle on CT scan, and presents mild to moderate enhancement on enhancement scan round lesions has high density and enhancement range than irregular-shaped lesions.

Clinical data of 899 patients,who received colposcopic examination,were retrospectively analyzed.Both Reid's colposcopic index(RCI)score and biopsy were performed.The study showed that the value of RCI score was positively related to the severity of cervical lesions(F=2.043,P=0.03).The specificity of RCI for cervicitis,cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN)Ⅰ were 98.8%,95.7% respectively;while sensitivity and negative predictive value for CIN Ⅱ,CIN Ⅲ were 77.7%,70.0%and 96.8%.97.4%,respectively.So RCI scoring can increase the diagnostic value of colposcope.

Objective To discuss the characteristics,growth and development of atlantoaxial pedicle in preschool children,and to provide the basic theoretical basis for the design,production and clinical application of pedicle screw technique in the treatment of atlantoaxial disease in preschool children.Methods Excluded patients with atlantoaxial fractures,deformities,tuberculosis and tumor,the clinical data of 60 children aged from 3 to 6 years old with cervical spondylolisthesis were collected.The original CT images were reconstructed in DICOM format and the subjects were reconstructed with Mimics software.The subjects were grouped by age to measure and analyze the atlantoaxial pedicle correlation.Results The pedicle width(PW),pedicle height(PH) and total length of pedicle bone channel (PL) increased gradually with age.The PW/PH ratio of the vertebrae(C1) is greater than 1.0,and that is, the width of the pedicle of the C1 pedicle is greater than the height.The PW/PH ratio of the vertebral (C2) is less than 1.0,which means the width of the pedicle of the C1 pedicle is less than the height.Conclusion The growth and development of spine in preschool children are fast, and the pedicle of atlantoaxial calculus in different age groups has different developmental characteristics.In this study,the diameter of the pedicle of the atlantoaxial pedicle in the 3 to 6 year old children is increasing with age.The pedicle screw with the smallest diameter of 3.5 mm can be implanted into the atlantoaxial pedicle with feasibility in theory.

Objective: To examine the association between serum vitamin D level and thyroid function indicators among elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), so as to provide the evidence for the prevention and treatment of thyroid function abnormality among elderly patients with T2DM. Methods: Inpatients aged 60 years and older and admitted to the department of endocrinology of Zhejiang Hospital were selected as the study subjects. Gender, age, course of disease and other basic information were collected through questionnaire surveys. The serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D[25-(OH) D], thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4), total triiodothyronine (TT3), and total thyroxine (TT4) were measured. The correlation between serum vitamin D level and thyroid function indicators in elderly patients with T2DM was evaluated by a multiple linear regression model. Results: A total of 402 elderly patients with T2DM were surveyed, including 210 males (52.24%) and 192 females (47.76%), and had a median age of 70.00 (interquartile range, 12.00) years and a median course of disease of 14.00 (interquartile range, 14.00) years. There were 162 patients with insufficiency of vitamin D (40.30%) and 182 patients with deficiency (45.27%). The levels of TSH and glycated hemoglobin in the vitamin D deficiency group were (2.34±1.66) μIU/mL and (8.83±2.14) %, respectively, which were higher than those in the normal group [(1.74±1.10) μIU/mL and (8.11±1.75) %; P<0.05]. The levels of FT3 and FT3/FT4 in the vitamin D deficiency group were (2.86±0.48) μIU/mL and 2.85±0.71, respectively, which were lower than those in the vitamin D insufficiency group [(3.09±0.47) pg/mL and 3.14±0.81, P<0.05]. Multiple linear regression analysis showed a negative correlation between 25- (OH) D and TSH (β'=-0.159, P=0.001). Conclusion The vitamin D deficiency may be associated with the increase of TSH level among the elderly patients with T2DM.

Objective To investigate the effect of different types and dosages of contrast media on the function and cell injury of rat renal artery endothelium. Methods Renal artery rings were isolated from SD rats and incubated in IMDM medium with 30,60,90 ?l/ml Diatrizoate or Ioversol. The contents of NO and ET-1 were detected by Griess method and radioimmunoassay. The release of LDH was assessed by colotimetric method. Results After being incubated with Diatrizoate or Ioversol for 1 h,the renal artery endothelium did not show significant changes in the release of NO,but the release of ET-1 increased in a dose-dependent manner. When the renal artery endothelium was stimulated with Diatrizoate at dosage of 90 ?l/ml for 4 h,the release of LDH was increased markedly. A slight,but insignificant,increased release of LDH induced by Ioversol was observed. Conclusion Both Diatrizoate and Ioversol can affect the function of renal artery endothelium by interfering the secretion of ET-1,and the effects of Diatrizoate are more obvious than Ioversol. High-dose Diatrizoate can also induce renal artery endothelial cells injury.

Objective To analyze the willingness and influencing factors for usage of pre-exposure prophylaxis(PrEP) among male students who have sex with men (MSM) in universities of Guangxi. Meth-ods 295 MSM students in universities were recruited by Snow-balling methods. Questionnaires were self-administered to collect social demographic information,AIDS related risky sexual behaviors and willingness for usage of PrEP. Logistic regression was employed for univariate and multivariate analysis. Results Of the 295 MSM,58(19.7%)had ever heard PrEP,265(89.8%) said that they would like to use PrEP. Multivari-ate logistic regression analysis showed that those who had found partners through friends ( OR=11.419,95%CI:1.363~95.641), those who would advise his friend to use PrEP ( OR=87.946,95%CI:13.660-566. 222),those who concerned the convenience to gain the medicine ( OR=119.652,95%CI:3.765-3802.184) and those who said that they could take medicine every day ( OR=88.245,95%CI:10.237-760.696) were more likely to accept PrEP. The subjects whose partners would be angry if they stick to use condoms( OR=0.106,95%CI:0.019-0.606),and those who suspected the effectiveness of drugs( OR=0.010,95%CI:0. 001-0.112) were less likely to accept PrEP. Conclusion The acceptability of PrEP is high in university students'MSM. The safety of drugs and the convenience to gain the medicine are the main influencing factors for usage of PrEP.Using of PrEP should be strengthened to the MSM.
