Chinese Journal of Ultrasonography 2001;10(2):98-100
Objective To evaluate the role of transvaginal sonography in diagnosing the normal cervix and its benign lesions.Methods The one handred and thirty-eight women without malignant findings by colposcopy examination underwent transvaginal sonography within 2 weeks before hyterectomy. The sonography findings were compared with the pathology report.Results Cervical cysts(39 cases) were the most common sonography findings. In 17 cases, endocervical polyps were found sonographically,in 14 cases, myomas were found,and in 27 cases cervicitis were found. The cervix showed no sonographic abnormal in 41. Pathologic results showed 42 cervical cysts, 14 cervical polyps, 16 myomas, 17 cervicitis and 49 normal cervices.Conclusions The sensitivity and specificity of transviginal sonography are high in diagnosing normal cervices and benign cervical lessions. Transviginal sonography provides reliable diagnosing information about the cervix for clinic.
2.Exercise training improves the arterial baroreflex function in heart failure rats
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 2010;26(1):59-63
AIM: To investigate the effect of exercise training(EX) on the arterial baroreflex and possible mechanisms in rats with chronic heart failure(CHF).METHODS: Experiments were carried out in four groups: EX-CHF,CHF,EX-sham,and sham. CHF was induced by left coronary artery ligation,and EX consisted of 4 weeks of treadmill running. Baroreflex function,plasma angiotensin II(Ang II) and central AT1 receptor expression were determined.RESULTS: (1) The average slope and maximal gain of the baroreflex curve in CHF rats were lower than those in sham rats(P<0.01). EX significantly enhanced baroreflex parameters in CHF group but not in sham group.(2) EX decreased plasma Ang II in CHF rats [(137±27)ng/L vs (263±55)ng/L,P<0.01],but had no significant effect on plasma Ang II in sham rats [(75±17)ng/L vs (92±21)ng/L].(3) Expression of AT1R protein in the PVN of CHF rats was higher than that in sham rats(1.20±0.21 vs 0.70±0.14,P<0.01). EX reduced AT1R protein level in CHF rats(0.90±0.13),but had no impact in sham rats(0.60±0.16).CONCLUSION: EX restores the attenuated arterial baroreflex function in CHF rats,involving in decrease of plasma Ang II and downregulation of AT1R in the PVN.
3.Prediction value of procalcitonin for acute kidney injury in patients with acute pancreatitis
The Journal of Practical Medicine 2014;(20):3329-3331
Objective To study the clinical value of procalcitonon (PCT) for predicting development of acute kidney injury and outcomes in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods 205 inpatients with acute pancreatitis in our hospital were enrolled in our study during January 2012 to March 2013. According to acute kidney injury (AKI) occurred in three consecutive days or not, the patients were divided into AKI group (n = 32) and control group (n=173). Crea, Urea, CysC and PCT, serum amyloid A (SAA), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C reactive protein (CRP) were analyzed. The predictive validity of these indicators was constructed by receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve. Results PCT, IL-6, and CRP level of AKI group showed significant higher in AKI group than control group (P<0.05). However, there were no statistically significant difference of the level of Urea, Crea, Cys C and SAA between the two groups (P>0.05). The AUC value of PCT showed significant higher than the AUC value of CRP, IL-6 and SAA(P<0.05). Conclusion PCT is a early, sensitive, specific biomarker for predicting AKI of patients with AP.

Objective To analyze testing results and values of blood heterotypic lymphocyte in flu patients.Methods 100 cases of influenza patients and 100 healthy people were collected.The observation group for flu patients and control group of healthy people.Extraction of peripheral blood in patients with microscopic examination observing leukocyte,neutrophil,lymphocyte,intermediate cells,atypical lymphocytes under a microscope,and calculated the percentage in the patients in the two group cells to make analysis and comparison.Ratio in peripheral blood of patients and analysis of specific lymphocytes were also calculated between different ages.Results Peripheral blood lymphocytes in observation group was (11.1 ± 2.6) %,which was significantly higher than than of the control group [(1.5 ± 0.5) %].The difference was statistically significant (chi-square =16.9,P < 0.05) ; White blood cells,the ratio of neutrophils,lymphocytes in observation group were obvious differenent compared with the control group(t/chi square are:13.2,11.3 and 12.6,P < 0.05) ;Three ages of influenza patients peripheral blood lymphocytes of the opposite sex ratio has no difference(P > 0.05).Conclusion Detection of peripheral blood lymphocyte heterosexual has great significance to the diagnosis of influenza with simple,convenient and feasible characters.It is worth to be used widely in clinical practice.
5.Analysis on the Efficiency of 14 Division-level Hospitals of Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps Based on DEA Model
Chinese Health Economics 2013;(7):78-80
Objective: To evaluate the operational efficiency of the division-level hospitals of Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps. Methods: Use DEA’s CCR model and BCC model to calculate the overall efficiency, pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency of Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, and use super-efficiency model to calculate efficiency ranking of the division-level hospitals. Results: In the total pattern, there were 28.6%of the agricultural division hospitals at the stage of constant returns scale;in the medical service model, there were only 14.3% hospitals at that stage. Conclusion: From the results of two models, the technical efficiency has more room for improvement, compared with efficiency scale. The hospital needs to improve the level of health care technique, avoid blind expansion, minimize unnecessary input, strengthen internal meticulous management, and improve the overall operating efficiency of the hospital.
6.Effects of angiotensinogen gene polymorphisms on the risk of coronary heart disease in the Chinese population: a meta-analysis
Journal of Geriatric Cardiology 2010;07(3):152-156
Objective Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a multifactorial disease. This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between angiotensinogen gene polymorphisms and CHD in the Chinese population. Methods We searched literature in pubmed (1990-2010.8) and CNKI (1990-2010.8) for all the relevant studies on 2 angiotensinogen polymorphisms (M235T and T174M) and risk of CHD. The meta-analysis software Stata 10.0 was used for ascertaining heterogeneity among individual studies and for combining all the studies. Furthermore,Egger's test and sensitivity analysis were performed to insure authenticity of the outcome.Results Ten associations studies on 2 angiotensinogen polymorphisms (M235T and T174M) were included in this meta-analysis. In a combined analysis, the summary per-allele odds ratio for CHD of the M235T polymorphism was 1.374 (95% confidence interval, 1.019 to 1.852) and T174M polymorphism was 4.089 (95% confidence interval, 1.697 to 9.851). Conclusions The M235T polymorphism had weak but statistically significant association with CHD while the T174M polymorphism was more strongly associated with a CHD risk in Chinese population, but further confirmation studies are needed.

Chinese Journal of General Practitioners 2010;9(5):336-337
To evaluate the effect of problem-based learning (PBL) in internal medicine teaching for residency training of general medicine.Fifty two residents of general medicine were divided randomly into PBL teaching and traditional teaching groups with 26 in each.The evaluation was conducted in combination of examination scores and questionnaire survey in both groups.In questionnaire survey the residents of PBL group responded positively about the use of PBL in teaching, and rated themselves as having much better competencies in problem solving and self-directed learning.The scores of case analysis examination in PBL group were higher than those in traditional teaching group ( 73.7 ± 4.1 vs.71.1 ± 4.8, P < 0.05 ).The results suggest that the application of PBL has better effect than traditional teaching in residency training of general medicine.
8.Sonographic appearance of corpus luteum in early pregnance in gray-scale,color and pulsed Doppler ultrasonography
Chinese Journal of Ultrasonography 1993;0(03):-
Objective To understand the gray-scale, color and pulsed Doppler sonographic feature of the corpus luteum during the early trimester of pregnancy. Methods The ovaries of 174 patients with intrauterine gestations between 5 to 9 weeks' menstrual age were examined with transvaginal sonography. Size, sonographic appearance, color Doppler feature, resistance index, peak systolic velocity of the corpus letuem were recorded. Results The corpus luteum was identified in 169 of 174 patients(97.1%) . The mean diameter was ( 1.7 ? 0.8 ) cm. The gray-scale appearances were classified into four types:a thin wall cyst(47 patients, 27.8 %), a thick wall simple cyst(45 patients, 26.6 %), a round hypoechoic structure(43 patients, 25.4 %), a thin-walled cyst containing internal debris (34 patients, 20.1 %). Color blood flow was visualized with color Doppler imaging in 92.3 %(156/169). Color Doppler imaging typically revealed a circumferential rim surrounding part or all of the corpus luteum. Low-resistance blood flow was seen with pulsed Doppler, with a mean resistance index of 0.41?0.10 . Conclusions The corpus lutuem in early pregnancy is identified with transvaginal sonography and has different sonographic appearances. It is important to recognize the various appearances of the corpus lutuem to avoidits confusion with true ovarian abnormalities and ectopic pregnancy.
