Objective To explore the value of combined application of qualitative detection of TB-DNA serum anti-PPD-IgG and acid-fast staining methods in the diagnosis of tuberculosis infection .Methods Totally 278 pulmonary tuberculosis patients and 121 non-pulmonary tuberculosis patients were collected from Qingyuan people′s hospital during the period from January 2013 to June 2015 .Tuberculosis in patients with TB-DNA qualitative and serum anti-PPD-IgG and acid-fast staining test results was analyzed . Sputum TB-DNA qualitative and serum anti-PPD-IgG detection and joint application of acid-fast staining in the diagnosis of tuber-culosis infection .Results Sensitivities of acid-fast staining ,TB-DNA and serum anti-PPD-IgG in the TB group were 32 .01% , 51 .44% and 48 .56% respectively .The detectable rate of combining TB-DNA with serum PPD-IgG was 67 .63% .The detectable rate of combining TB-DNA with acid-fast staining was 54 .68% .The detectable rate of combining serum anti-PPD-IgG with acid-fast combined rate was 57 .55% .The detectable rate of combining three assays improved to 68 .71% .Conclusion Serum anti-PPD-IgG detection in the diagnosis of tuberculosis is simple ,effective ,qualitative detection of acid-fast staining sensitivity better than TB-DNA ,but it had a poor specificity .Bacteriologic diagnosis are tuberculosis diagnostic gold standard,but the detectable rate for acid-fast bacilli is low .The qualitative of TB-DNA test had a better sensitivity and specificity than other two assay .Combining with three assays could increase detectable rate and improve diagnosis of tuberculosis disease .

The financial objective of the health non-operating state-owned assets(NSA) value-running is defined as non-profit, an empirical test is designed; the non-profit objective function and for-profit objective function is established and the impact of fix asset and staff cost on financial objective in multiple regression functions are compared.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and prognosis of adult dermatomyositis with gastrointestinal bleeding and perforation. Methods The clinical data of a adult dermatomyositis with gastrointestinal bleeding and perforation were retrospectively analyzed. And the clinical characteristics of this patient were analyzed, combined with 7 cases reported in the literature. Results Among the 8 cases, 6 cases were females and 2 cases were males, aged 18 to 63 years. The 5 cases had melena, 3 cases had hematemesis, 3 cases had hematochezia and 1 case had hemoptysis. The main treatment was glucocorticoids, immunosuppressive agent, intravenous immune globulin (IVIG), endoscopic hemostasis and angiographic embolization. Four of the 8 cases died. Conclusions Adult dermatomyositis with gastrointestinal bleeding and perforation is rare, but the condition is dangerous and the mortality is high. Dermatomyositis with early onset of abdominal pain, vomiting, melena should be alert to serious complications such as gastrointestinal bleeding and perforation.

Cancer is one of the three major killers that threatened human health in the twenty-first century,making the early diagnose and high-efficiency therapy crucial.The recent-developed nanotechnology brings new hope for this.Among different nanomaterials,magnetic nanoparticles show positive effects in diagnosis and therapies since they can be located with certain magnetic fields and can vibrate and heat up in the alternating magnetic field.With the ever increasing attention paid to the study,magnetic nanoparticles will play a key role in cancer diagnosis and therapy.This review gives a comprehensive discussion on development of the research and applications of magnetic nanoparticles,including single metallic,double metallic and alloyed magnetic nanoparticles.Moreover,it also prospects the future developing orientations of magnetic nanotechnology.Magnetic nanoparticles are widely used these days,with a speedy research development both in theory and application.However,the investigations into the toxicity of magnetic nanoparticles and the medical and commercial standards have to continue before magnetic nanoparticles are determined as valid and with low toxicity.

Objective To evaluate the long-term prognostic capacity of the SYNTAX score Ⅱ(SxScore Ⅱ) and SYNTAX score (SxScore) in patients undergoing left main percutaneous coronary intervention (LM-PCI). Methods A total of 209 patients undergoing unprotected LM-PCI in the Cardiology Department of the Affiliated Hospital of PAP of Logistic College were prospectively collected. Follow up was carried out by telephone or outpatient or rehospitalization. The clinical endpoint focused on MACCE after PCI including composite death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization and stroke. The secondary endpoint included cardiac death and stent thrombosis. The SxScore and SxScoreⅡ were retrospectively calculated according to results of coronary angiography and clinical features of patients. Patients were stratified according to tertiles of low (≤22), intermediate (23-32), and high (≥33). The clinical data were comparedbetween three groups. The predictive ability of two scoring systems to MACCE after PCI was compared by COX regression evaluation. Results In 209 patients, 12 patients were lost to follow-up (5.7%), and the median follow-up was 30.2 months, 56 cases (28.4%) were observed to suffer from MACCE. The incidence rates of MACCE were 19.0%, 28.6%and 44.4%in SxScore low, intermediate and high groups respectively. The incidence rates of MACCE were 12.8%, 23.8%and 45.5%in SxScoreⅡlow, intermediate and high groups respectively. Single factor analysis showed that SxScore, SxScoreⅡ, age, diabetes and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were the independent predictors of MACCE. Multivariate analysis showed that SxScore and SxScoreⅡwere still risk independent predictors for MACCE. Conclusion Both SxScore and SxScoreⅡare independent risk predictors for MACCE in patients with unprotected left main coronary artery disease undergoing PCI treatment.

Objective To explore the examination methods about stability of carotid atherosclerotic plaque and evaluate the curative effect of medicine on carotid atherosclerosis.Methods 150 patients with carotid atherosclerotic plaque in acute stage ischemic stroke were divided into treatment group and control group at random.Stable or instable plaques were assessed and carotid artery intima-media thickness(IMT) were measured according to the characteristics of carotid atherosclerotic plaque on supersound imagin.The treatment in treatment group were different from that in control group.The therapeutic efficacy was observed respectively.Results After the treatment 1 month and 3 months,in treatment group carotid artery IMT decreaced more than that at accidence of treatment group and that of control group,the carotid atherosclerotic plaques stabilizese increasingly.Conclusion The stability of carotid atherosclerotic plaque may be evaluated through the ultrasound imagin.Statin and aspirin can lighten carotid atherosclerosis and stabilize the plaque.

Objective To explore the measure to diminish the misdiagnosis of Budd-Chiari syndrome.Methods 46 cases of Budd-Chiari syndrome were analyzed.Results 33 cases had ever been misdiagnosed with average time of 5.3 years.One of the main clinical symptoms was the pathological process of lower limb(84.8%).Doppler color flow imaging examination showed positive rate of 100% in liver veins and inferior vena cava,,but none of the misdiagnosed cases received this examination.The viral marker test had a positive rate of only 4.3% that was not higher than that of general population.Conclusion Budd-Chiari syndrome has a variety of symptoms,so Doppler color flow imaging is considered an important means to diagnose this disease.
