Objective:To identify the differences in clinical manifestations between Chinese giant cell arteritis (GCA) patients and polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) patients.Methods:Twelve GCA patients were included during September 2010 to September 2019 in our hospital. Clinical and laboratory data were collected. Twenty-four age and sex-matched pure PMR patients were selected as control. Statistical analysis was performed using Statistical product and service solutions (SPSS) software. The categorical variables were tested by chi square test, and the continuous variables were expressed by mean and standard deviation ( ± s). The comparison between groups was conducted by t-test. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:In these 12 GCA patients, the onset age was 55-70 (67±7) years old, and male to female ratio was 1∶11. The most common initial symptom of GCA was the same as PMR (7/12, 58%) . Compared with PMR patients, the specific clinical manifestations of GCA patients were scalp pain ( P=0.031), mandibular claudication ( P=0.031) and migraine ( P=0.000). The creatine kinase of GCA (60±27) U/L patients was higher than that in PMR (41±15) patients ( t=1.098, P=0.029). There was no significant difference in other laboratory tests including erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C reactive protein level. Seven of 12 GCA patients were first diagnosed with PMR, then were diagnosed with GCA during follow-up. No obvious differences could be found in clinical manifestations between these 7 patients and 24 pure PMR patients. Through imaging examinations, we found that 9 of the 12 GCA patients had arterial stenosis, 5 had thickened vascular walls, 5 had atherosclerosis, and 2 had rough endometrium. Conclusion:GCA patients and PMR may have similar clinical presentations. The presence of scalp pain, mandibular claudication and migraine during the course of the disease implies that GCA is more likely. Vascular ultrasound, arterial CTA, and positron emission tomograph (PET)/CT play an increasingly important role in the diagnosis of GCA.

Objective To evaluate the value of multislice spiral CTA in diagnosis of intracranial aneurysm.Methods CTA data in 32 patients with intracranial aneurysms proved by operation and DSA were retrospectively analysed in comparison with the results of DSA.Results 38 aneurysms in 32 patients were detected by DSA and operation.Six cases of 32 had two aneurysms.36 and 34 aneurysms were detected by DSA and CTA respectively.4 aneurysms located at anterior communicating artery,7 at middle cerebral artery,9 at posterior communicating artery,14 at internal carotid artery and 4 at basilar artery.Conclusion MSCTA can be used as the method in screening intracranial aneurysms for surgery and interventional therapy.

Objective To understand the types of drug use,medication habits,medical treatment behavior and drug management of urban families in Hefei,and to provide background information for drug safety education and scientific medical education.Methods The questionnaire design covers 32 issues,some teachers and parents of 2 training institutions,part of the staff of the 2 administrative institutions and the residents of the 3 residential areas were investigated.320 questionnaires were distributed,and valid questionnaires were collected from 306 copies.Results 96.1% of Hefei urban family had standing drugs,anti cold drugs was the highest proportion(87.3%),followed by antibacterial drugs(51.0%),the main channel was the purchase pharmacy(89.2%) and hospital(36.3%).When the family was ill,65.7% of the respondents first ate home medicine;the proportion of chosing a large hospital up to 83.3%.74.5% of respondents believed that antibiotics abuse.Up to 83.3% of respondents had been performed intravenous infusion therapy when illness,55.9% of the respondents thought intravenous infusion therapy most unnecessary,and only 5.9% of the respondents thought intravenous infusion therapy was dangerous.Consulting a doctor when they had a problem in 67.7%,followed by the internet query(44.1%) and to the pharmacy consultation(14.7%).40.2% of the respondents hoped to learn medical knowledge.Conclusion Hefei city of Anhui province has a high proportion of urban family with standing drugs,the purchase way is regular,and when the disease,first of all to eat home standing drugs,medical treatment prefers large hospital,most think most intravenous infusion is not necessary;They want to understand the medical knowledge,and hope to establish consultation channels.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of sleeping body posture on sleeping structure and respiratory events in patients with OSAHS. METHOD: We assessed the sleeping body position, the sleeping structure, position specific AHI and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) in a total of 80 patients with Positional OSAHS. The patients were grouped according to AHI: mild OSAHS (5 < or = AHI <15), moderate (15 < or = AHI < 30) and severe (AHI > or = 30). The polysomnography data and clinical characteristics were compared between each group. RESULT: The severe OSAHS group, when compared with the mild and the moderate ones, had a significant different in REM%, NREM%, NREM LSaO2, RDI, S-AHI and L-AHI due to posture (P < 0.05). The severe and the mild OSAHS groups had significant different in MSaO2, LSaO2 due to posture (P < 0.05). The moderate and the mild OSAHS group had significant different in LSaO2, REM LSaO2 and RDI (P < 0.05). In all mild, moderate and severe groups, the LT% were higher than ST%, but the difference was not significant (P > 0.05). For mild-to-moderate groups, there was no correlation between the ESS and the AHI for any position different (P > 0.05). For severe group, the ESS was significantly correlated with L-AHI (r = 0.551; P < 0.01); the REM L-AHI and NREM L-AHI was also significantly correlated with ESS of severe group (r were 0.516 and 0.528, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION The L-AHI, NREM L-AHI, REM L-AHI and NREM LSaO2 were considered to monitor the stability of OS-AHS, while REM LSaO2 were consider to clarify the severity of OSAHS.
