Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of computed tomography (CT)-guided implantation of radioactive ~(125)I seeds in the treatment of residual foci of nasopharyngeal carcinoma after radiotherapy.Methods:Twenty-five nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients who had residual foci after radiotherapy were implanted radioactive ~(125)I seeds from January 2007 to January 2008 in our hospital. Three-dimensional treatment planning system (TPS) was used to calculate the quantity and total dosage of ~(125)I seeds. The radioactive ~(125)I seeds were implanted into residual foci under CT guidance. The dosage distribution of radioactive ~(125)I seeds were verified after surgery. The nasopharyngeal endoscopy CT scans were performed at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery and the short-term efficacy and adverse reaction were evaluated. Results:Out of the 25 patients, 20 patients had complete response (CR), 2 patients had partial response (PR), 2 patients had no change (NC), and 1 patient had progressive diseases (PD). The overall effective rate (CR+PR) was 88.0%. All patients had no serious postoperative complications. Conclusion:CT-guided implantation of radioactive ~(125)I seed was an effective and safe method in the treatment of the residual foci of nasopharyngeal carcinoma after radiotherapy.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to analyze the current status of Hospital Information system in Yanbian, China. METHODS: Structured self-administered questionnaires were sent to hospitals in Yanbian to survey the issues and six hospitals answered. Data were analyzed by using Windows SPSS 12.0. RESULTS: All facilities were second-grade national hospitals with 100~500 beds, kept about 40 computers and all used internet. Four of them had information exclusive department, and the other two had the implementation plans. All of the hospitals had Patient Billing System and some features of Medication Administration System. Four hospitals had administration systems, and the other two had no plans to develop or adopt administration system in the next three years. Two hospitals used the packages composed of Electronic Data Interchange System, Amount Receivable Management System and Laboratory Information System. One hospital used the Picture Archiving and Communication System, Telemedicine System, Radioactive Examination. CONCLUSIONS: Compared with Korea, the results showed relevant explanation on the delays of implementing HIS and its current status in Yanbian. In order to develop Hospital Information System, various strategies must be developed and active international support and research was required to provide the appropriate experiences.

Objective:To explore a blood cell recognition algorithm that combined threshold image segmentation with deep learning in conventional image processing,so as to be used in automatic recognition and classification of blood cell smears.Method:Global threshold segmentation was used to extract blood cells from blood cell smears and to store them separately.The segmented cell images were manually labeled and classified so as to reduce the requirements for hardware in subsequent processing.The deep learning training of labeled images was on the basis of the GoogLeNet pre training model,which could generate deep learning model of automatic recognition that could be used in the images of blood cell smear.The trained model could be used to evaluate the test set,and generate confusion matrix and area under curve(AUC)value of receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Result:This preprocessing has been proven that it can improve the training of deep learning model,and the subsequent recognition speed of using model can exceed over 10 times.Using the online image dataset Raabin WBC Data of blood cell smear,the accuracy of model training reached to 93.06%.Both of them obtained favorable results.Conclusion:The blood cell recognition algorithm based on the combination of threshold image segmentation and deep learning can greatly improve the efficiency of recognition and classification of blood cells,and ensure accuracy of the diagnosis of blood related diseases.

Objective To retrospectively analyze and compare the clinical application value of core-needle biopsy (CNB) histology and fine needle aspiration (FNA) cytology in diagnosing malignant thyroid nodules. Methods A total of 134 patients with 137 thyroid nodules (93 malignant nodules and 44 benign nodules) were included in this study. Under ultrasound guidance, successive use of 22 G fine needle and18 G core-needle to puncture each nodule was performed for sampling of thyroid nodule. Surgical findings and pathological manifestations were compared with clinical follow-up results. The success rate of sampling and the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity as well as specificity for malignant thyroid nodules were compared among FNA, CNB, and CNB/FNA. Results The success rate of puncture sampling with FNA, CNB and FNA/CNB for thyroid nodules was 89.1%, 97.8% and 100% respectively. For malignant thyroid nodules, the diagnostic accuracy of FNA, CNB and FNA/CNB was 79.6%, 91.9% and 96.4% respectively, the sensitivity was 81.7%, 94.6% and 97.8% respectively, and the specificity was 75.0%, 86.4% and 93.2% respectively. The success rate of puncture sampling by using CNB or FNA/CNB was significantly higher than that by using FNA (P<0.01), moreover, the diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity for malignant thyroid nodules by using CNB or FNA/CNB was also remarkably higher than those by using FNA (P<0.01) . Conclusion In making diagnosis of malignant thyroid nodules, CNB is accurate, safe and reliable. CNB can be used as a complementary or alternative technique to FNA in clinical practice.

Objective:To analyze the factors affecting olfactory disfunctions in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP).Methods:This was a retrospective analysis. Eighty-eight patients with CRSwNP who underwent endoscopic sinus surgery in Beijing Anzhen Hospital from 2014 to 2018 were enrolled, including 22 males and 66 females, with the age of (48.1±11.3) years old(Mean±SD). Sniffin′ Sticks olfactory test, Lund-Mackay score and modified sinus CT olfactory cleft score, nasal resistance and acoustic reflex examination, blood routine and blood biochemistry test, serum specific IgE test were performed before surgery and nasal polyps of all patients were collected for eosinophil count during surgery. According to bilateral total TDI score, the patients were divided into normal olfactory function group and olfactory disfunction group. The clinical baseline data were compared between the two groups. According to the results of single factor analysis, factors which were significant different between the two groups and clinically useful indicators were further included in the multivariate Logistic regression model analysis, then a model predicting olfactory disfunction in patients with CRSwNP was initially established. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:Among 88 patients with CRSwNP, 32 (36.4%) patients were with normal olfaction and 56 (63.6%) patients were with olfactory disfunction, including 40 (45.5%) of hyposmia and 16 (18.2%) of anosmia. Tissue eosinophil count, blood eosinophil percentage and blood urea concentration had significant difference between the two groups (12.7[2.0, 52.3]/HP ( M[ P25, P75]) vs 38.6[16.2, 87.0]/HP, 2.75[1.60, 4.80]% vs 4.35[2.50, 6.60]%, (5.56±1.15) mmol/L vs (4.98±1.33) mmol/L, all P<0.05). Modified sinus CT olfactory cleft score and Lund-Mackay score except for ostiomeatal complex score were statistically significant between the two groups (all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the bilateral and total olfactory cleft score and blood urea concentration were statistically significant, in addition, the bilateral and total olfactory cleft score was a risk factor ( OR=2.108, 95 %CI: 1.407-3.159, P<0.001) and blood urea within a certain concentration was a protective factor ( OR=0.461, 95 %CI: 0.240-0.884, P=0.020). Further studies found that the area under the ROC curve of the model with tissue eosinophil count, blood eosinophil percentage, bilateral and total olfactory cleft score, total inspiratory volume and blood urea concentration was 0.888 ( P<0.01), which had good predictive value for olfactory disorders in CRSwNP. Conclusions:The modified sinus CT olfactory cleft score is closely related to the olfactory disorders in patients with CRSwNP. A certain degree of elevated blood urea concentration may have a protective effect on the olfactory function of patients with CRSwNP.
