Key words are important parts of scientific and technical articles, correctly indexing can fully reveal the core content and improve the effective communication as well as application of academic articles. Furthermore, key words are the chief indexes for measuring journal quality. In this article, we took Chinese Journal of Medical Imaging as example, deeply explored the characteristics, indexing principles and methods of journal articles in radiological imaging.

The relationship of medical papers and growth tendency with medical and health funds in different countries of the world was studied by analyzing SCI-covered medical papers published in 2007-2016,which showed that medical and health field was one of the research hotspots in the world,the number of papers published by the top 10 countries showed a growth tendency,their medical and health funds were closely related with the production of scientific papers (r=0.99),and the compound growth rate of medical and health funds was closely related with that of the number of scientific papers (r=0.91).

〔Abstract〕 Medical and health sci-tech novelty assessment plays a key role in information supporting in the hospital scientific research and management work of health sector.Combining with the current status of medical and health sci-tech novelty assessment work station in the Military Hospital of Beijing PLA, the paper puts forward countermeasures acoording to the existing problems, namely, weak management and personnel and so on, in order to promote comprehensive development of medical and health sci-tech novelty assessment work.

Objective To study the Hainan Utstein templates used for cardiac arrest and resuscitation registries to evaluate the epidemiological characteristics and outcomes of the patients with CPR by multi-center study. Methodsccording to the Utstein templates for cardiac arrest and CPR set by International Liaison Committee on resuscitation in 2004, a Hainan Utstein CPR registry chart was designed and a prospective descriptive study was carried out to evaluate the epidemiological characteristics, impact factors and outcomes of the patients with resuscitation attempt in emergency departments of thirteen hospitals in Hainan Island between January 2007 and December 2010.Results Of 1125 patients with cardiac arrest, male accounted for 73. 8％ and female was 26. 2％. The mean ( ± S. D) age of the cardiac arrest patients was 53.9 ± 13. 1 years old.Coronary heart diseases and hypertension were the most common preexisting chronic diseases in the studied patients. The ROSC rate and discharge rates after survival in 1125 patients with CPR were 23. 8％ and 7.4％ respectively. The ROSC rate and discharge rates after survival were 36. 3％ and 11.6％ in the in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) group, respectively whereas 11.5％ and 3. 3％ in out-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) group. Of 188 patients with ventricular fibrillation/Pulseless ventricular tachycardia, the ROSC rate and discharge rate after survival were 58.0％and 21.8％,respectively. Of them, 448 (39. 8％ ) of the cardiac arrest patients had underlying cardiac causes, and the ROSC rate and discharge rate after survival were 36. 3％ and 11.5％ respectively in IHCA group whereas 11.6％ and 3. 3％ in OHCA group. The ROSC rate and discharge rate after survival were 69. 8％ and 7. 4％respectively in the tertiary hospitals whereas 30. 2％ and 7. 3％ in the secondary hospitals. Conclusions Patients experienced cardiac arrest were predominantly male. Coronary heart disease and hypertension were the two most common preexisting chronic diseases. The ROSC rate and discharge rate of patients with IHCA were higher than those with OHCA. ROSC rate and discharge rate after survival were higher in the ventriculat fibrillation/Pulseless ventricular tachycardia group than the other cardiac rhythms first witnessed groups. The time delayed of starting CPR after onset of cardiac arrest had a critical impact on survival and discharge rate in both IHCA and OHCA groups.

Objective To analyze the relationship between planning factors of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and gamma index and investigate the effect of each parameter upon the γ passing rate of IMRT.Methods Gamma analysis was performed using 3％/3 mm acceptance criteria for 457 IMRT beams with different planning factors.During multi-factor ANOVA analysis of planning factors and gamma passing rate,the control variables primarily included the minimum segment area,minimum number of monitor unit (MU),number of segment,segment conversation,and the spatial resolution in the measured dose distribution.Results The percentage of pixels with passingγsignificantly differed under different minimum segment area,segment conversation and the spatial resolution in the measured dose distribution (all P＜ 0.05).No significant correlation was observed between the passing rate and the minimum number of MU and the number of segment (P＞ 0.05).Conclusions According to the actual situation of the equipment,the minimum segment area should be determined during IMRT planning.Direct machine parameter optimization should be performed.Appropriate resolution of the plane dose images can be chosen according to the minimum detector interval of dose matrix device,

OBJECTIVE: To report 13 cases of ethmoid osteoma removed through an endoscopic approach and discuss the operative technique and clinical value. METHOD: Thirteen cases with ethmoid osteoma were retrospectively reviewed in the study. All procedures were performed with CT image guidance-according to the site of attachment. The anterior ethmoid cell was resected, and the whitish osteoma found. A double blunt elevator was used to separate the osteoma from ethmoid cell, and to push the osteoma medially toward the nasal septum, and (or) inferiorly toward the middle meatus. This method was performed in 7 patients (8 sides), whose CT scan showed the osteoma bases were not attached to lamina papyracea, and (or) anterior skull base. The others were drilled out with a intranasal powered drill for its attached to lamina papyracea in 4 patients and to anterior skull base in 2 patients. RESULT: Thirteen cases of ethmoid osteoma were removed completely through an endoscopic approach and there were no intraorbital or intracranial complication. Endoscopy showed normal epithelization at around 6 to 8 weeks after surgery. CONCLUSION Preoperative CT scans, including coronal and axial images, is very helpful to determine the sites of the osteoma attachment and plan the operation. Endoscopic removal of ethmoid osteoma is not only an ideal, less invasive surgical approach, but also no cosmetic alteration.

OBJECTIVE: Whether inhalation of pulmicort into the sinus of chronic rhinosinusitis patients could improve reepithelization after endoscopic sinus surgery was assessed. METHOD: Prospective study 60 patients with chronic rhinosinusitis after endoscopic sinus surgery were divided into 2 groups randomized, the one was treatment group, and the other was control group. The patients in treatment group received inhalation of pulmicort 2 ml plus 0.5% Aeuromycin solution 10 ml by oxygen driving force, once a day, persisting for 3 weeks. The patients in control group received Rhinocort. Besides the different therapies above mentioned above therapy was different, two groups received the same conventional route therapy. To observe the time of reepithelization under nasal endoscope, was observed, respectively. RESULT: The average time of reepithelization in treatment group was (5.3333 +/- 0.9942) weeks. The other group was (6.6667 +/- 1.3476) weeks, the statistical difference between the two groups was very significant. CONCLUSION Inhalation of pulmicort into the sinus can promote reepithelization and shorten the time of treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the method of the perioperative blood glucose control in chronic rhinosinusitis coexisting diabetes. METHOD: Twenty-two cases of chronic rhinosinusitis coexisting diabetes were investigated retrospectively, including one case of type 1 diabetes and 21 cases of type 2 diabetes. The study cohort was divided into two groups, the one was complication group and the other was non-complication group. The patients in complication group were injected insulin to control blood glucose level, and the patients in non-complication group were prescribed oral medicine. RESULT: Blood glucose levels below 9.0 mmol/L in complication group and below 7.0 mmol/L in non-complication group were both the surgical indication for the patients in this research cohort. Twenty-one cases were completely recovered and one case made progress significantly. CONCLUSION The detection of blood and urine glucose levels must be the routine item before the nasal endoscopic surgery. To control blood glucose levels in type 2 diabetes with non-complication, oral medicine is the first choice, in type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes with complication, insulin should be first considered.
