The authors report a case of Von hippel Lindau disease in a 20 years old patients with presenting signs: diminution of visual acuity, intracramial hypertension with a left cerebollar syndrome and existence of an retinal angioma on the right side and papilla oedema on the left side. A scanning examination revealed a cystic tumor with a solid little mass. Angiography showed a capillary nodus coressponding to the mass lesion, with feeding arteries coming from the anterio superior cerebellar artery. Removal of the cyst and the tumor was successful. Pathological examination: Hemangi oblastoma. Negative ultrasound examination of the kidney, pancreas.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate diagnostic value and clinical application of MRI in the children with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) before cochlear implantation. METHOD: MRI images of 80 children with the diagnosis of SHNL were retrospectively analyzed in combination with the latest classification of inner ear malformation. RESULT: There were 152 ears of inner ear malformation of 80 cases (160 ears), including 38 ears of cochlear malformation, 33 ears of vestibular malformation, 41 ears of semicircular canal malformation, 37 ears of vestibular aqueduct enlargement, 40 ears of internal auditory canal malformation, and 46 ears of cochlear nerve malformation. CONCLUSION MRI can provide detailed and reliable anatomical information for children with SNHL before cochlear implantation, and help to make the classification diagnosis. Therefore MRI is of great clinical significance for operation plan guidance and prognosis assessment.

Objective To investigate the clinical effectiveness of peripherally inserted central catheters(PICC) and peripheral intravenous catheters(PIV) in tumor chemotherapy. Methods A total of 180 patients with intravenous chemotherapy were randomly divided into two groups. 108 patients in the PICC group, 72 patients in the PIV group. The holding time and complications were observed and compared. Results The rate of complication in the PICC group were much lower than the PIV group, however was much longer than the PIV group in holding time. But there was no statistical difference in the positive culture rate of bacteria of two groups. Conclusions It is very safe to use PICC which can reduce the rate of complication of catheters and venipuncture times and is worthy of spreading in practice.

ObjectiveTo discuss the influence of health education to the pregnant women and their relatives on patients' satisfaction degree in grass-root hospitals. Methods200 pregnant women in our hospsital were divided into the experimental group and the control group, the experimental group was given systematic health education, while the control group only received the traditional reception. Then a survey was carried out in the two groups and the satisfaction degree of maternal women and their relatives with medical workers was compared. ResultsThe satisfaction degree Of maternal women and their relatives in the experimental group was higher than that of the control group. ConclusionsHealth education in gy-necology and obstetrics department and carrying out nursing with humanity can improve satisfaction degree of maternal women and their relatives to medical staffs.

The effective therapy of limited stage-small cell lung cancer( LS-SCLC) is combined chemotherapy and thoracic radiotherapy(TRT). Early thoracic irradiation is better than later one. Start of any treatment and end of radiotherapy less than 30 days is associated with improved survival in LS-SCLC patients. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy results in longer survival time than sequential and alternating chemoradiotherapy. There are no clear answers on optimal irradiation dose. Hyperfractinated irradiation may have therapeutic benefit compared with conventional irradiation.

It is a popular practice for Chinas academia to regard SCI(Science Citation Index)and its IF(Impact Factor)as fundamental indexes for research competency evaluatiop.This article however holds that SCI and IF are but quantitative measurements for evaluating periodicals,and whether it is scientific to evaluate research results with such indexes as they are remains to be jusfified.It also suggests that practitioners in research organizations fully comprehend the meaning of SCI and IF,and use them correctly,so as to guide researchers to contribute their works to proper publishers.

More recently, the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory Measurement Model (PedsQLTM)is wildly applicated in the research of pediatric quality of life as a pediatric population health measure. Considerable emphasis has been placed on the measurement of the quality of life of children with cerebral palsy, and many scholars carried on the investigations using the PedsQLTM abroad, while there was no related literature reported presently in China. This paper summarizes the basic structure and scoring method of PedsQLTM, and synthetically sums up the determinations of reliability, validity, and sensitivity of PedsQLTM in cerebral palsy children, and gives an overview of the effects on assessment of clinical efficacy and making a medical decision. The PedsQLTM has some superiority in measuring the quality of life in cerebral palsy children.

Objective To investigate the health management condition and water quality of centralized water supply units and secondary water supply facilities. Methods Data identification, on-site investigation, sampling test were conducted in 2006. Results The most serious problem existing in the municipal and self-constructed water plants was unqualified water quality testing facilities and the eligible rate was only 71.7% and 46.7% respectively. 32.7% of self-constructed water plants did not have health permits. Only 68.5% of drinking water related products and disinfection products used in the secondary water supply facilities were holding valid health permits. The eligible rates of source water quality in the municipal and self-constructed water plants were 75.3% and 80.0%, in the treated water were 85.0% and 77.5%, in the tap water were 92.4% and 82.0% respectively, in the secondary water supply was 80.8%. Conclusion Health management work still needs to be strengthened and water quality monitoring should focus on the microbial indicators and perceptible indicators.
