Objective To analyze the diagnostic values of ultrasonography and computed tomography (CT)for gallbladder adenomyomatosis. Methods The ultrasound and CT findings of 28 cases of pathologically confirmed gallbladder adenomyomatosis in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.The diagnostic values of the two imaging tools for gallbladder adenomyomatosis were analyzed with the pathological diagnosis as the gold standard.Comparison of rates was made by chi-square test;multiple comparisons of rates were made by partition of chi-square.Results Before operation,among the 28 patients,15 were diagnosed with gallbladder adenomyomatosis by ultrasonography,and 9 were diagnosed by CT;the diag-nostic rate of CT was 32.14%,and the diagnostic rate of ultrasonography was 53.57%.The chi-square test showed no difference between the di-agnostic rates of ultrasonography and CT for gallbladder adenomyomatosis (χ2 =2.63,P=0.10>0.05).In addition,the statistical results showed no differences between the diagnostic rates of ultrasonography and CT for various types of gallbladder adenomyomatosis (segmental type:χ2 =0,P=0.11>0.0125;diffuse type:χ2 =2.57,P=1.00>0.0125;focal type:χ2 =1.42,P=0.23>0.0125).Conclusion CT and ultrasonography are two important imaging methods for the diagnosis of gallbladder adenomyomatosis.The detection rate of gallbladder adenomyomatosis can be in-creased through the combination of convex array probe and linear array probe in ultrasonography.

The method of flying through the air is a qi-promoting and qi-circulating technique commonly used in clinical acupuncture. It includes four methods: the blue dragon wagging its tail, the white tiger shaking its head, the green turtle probing the cave and the red phoenix winging to the source and functions to circulate bodily meridian qi. The method of flying through the air was firstrecorded in Golden needle Fu. Later and modern doctors developed it on the basis of Golden needle Fu. This article straightens up the historical origin and development of four methods of flying through the air.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antibiotic resistance of pathogens isolated from inpatients with urinary tract infections.Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out on 1033 strains of pathogens isolated from urine culture in patients with urinary tract infections in Zhejiang Xiaoshan Hospital during January 2009 and December 2011.Urine specimens were cultured with Uricult,and K-B method was used for drug susceptibility test,WHONET 5.6 software was used to analyse drug susceptibility test.Results Among 1033 strains of pathogens,681 (65.9％) were gram-negative bacteria,197 (19.1％) were gram-positive bacteria,and 155 (15.0％) were fungi.The three most prevalent bacteria were Escherichia coli (402 strains,38.9％),Klebsiella pneumoniae (74 strains,7.2％) and Candida albicans (64 strains,6.2％).60.7％ (244/402) of Escherichia coli and 45.9％ (34/74) of Klebsiella pneumoniae were extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) positive.Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were susceptible to imipenem,meropenem,cefoperazone/sulbactam,piperacillin/tazobactam and amikacin.Enterococcus and staphylococcus were susceptible to vancomycin,linezolid and furadantin.Candida was sensitive to flucytosine,voriconazole and amphotericin B.Conclusion Gram-negative bacteria mainly E.coli is the predominant pathogen to urinary tract infections in this group of patients.Regular analysis and monitoring of pathogen species and drug resistance is important for rational use of antibiotics.

Objective To explore the relationship between serum adiponectin (APN) concentration and insulin resistance(IR) in elderly pregnancy patients(GDM) with gestational diabetes mellitus.Methods Data of 120 cases of elderly pregnancy patients with gestational diabetes mellitus admitted from Jan.2011 to Dec.2016 were retrospective analyzed.The relationship between serum APN concentration and IR was assayed.Healthy subjects and normal pregnancy patients in our Department were taken as the control.Results The concentration of APN was lower while the CysC,BNP,IGF1,IGF2 and IGFIR were higher in elderly pregnancy patients with gestational diabetes mellitus than those in the control group with a significant difference (P＜0.05).At the same time,Spearman analysis results showed that the serum APN was negatively related with IR while CysC,BNP,IGF1,IGF2 and IGFIR were positively related with IR (P＜0.05).Conclusion Theserumconcentrationofadiponectin and visfatin were negatively related with insulin resistance in elderly pregnancy patients with GDM.

Objective To explore the value of minimal residual disease with acute myeloid leukemia in prognostic evaluation and its correlation with cell morphology and genetics.Methods A total of 105 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (non M3) was used as the research subjects to evaluate the correlation between the level of minimal residual disease (MRD) and the degree of cellular morphological remission,and cytogenetics.According to the different levels of MRD,78 patients of cell morphology complete remission (CR) were grouped to evaluate the one-year recurrence rate after the first chemotherapy treatment.Results The correlation was evaluated between MRD level and morphological remission in 105 patients with AML after initial chemotherapy.In the degree of cellular morphological remission cell evaluation showed 78 (74.29％) cases of CR,27 (25.71％) cases of partial remission (PR) or non remission (NR).Among 78 cases of CR,MRD negative rate was 66.67％ (52/78),MRD was 33.33％ (26/78);and 27 cases of NR or PR,MRD was 100％ (27/27).The correlation between MRD level and cytogenetic evaluation,cytogenetic prognosis group and prognosis of middle group and poor prognosis group,and the negative rate of MRD were 66.67％,45.90％,and 35.29％,without significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Seventy eight patients with CR were divided into two groups according to the level of MRD to evaluate the recurrence rate of the 1 year,the recurrence rate of the positive group was significantly higher than that of the negative group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions With the development of hematology,the meaning of CR deeply,using flow cytometry method to detect the MRD,MRD positive cells relapse earlier than the traditional morphology,it has important clinical significance for guiding treatment and early prediction of recurrence of CR AML.

Objective To observe the effect of midazolam plus propofol administered for colonoscopy on cognitive function in middle-aged and aged patients. Methods One hundred and thirty six patients, ASA I and II, aged 40~75 years and undergoing colonoscopy were randomized to propofol group (group P, n=68) and propofol plus midazolam group (group PM, n=68). Baseline cognitive function was measured using Mini mental state exami-nation (MMSE) before anesthesia and the cognitive testing was repeated 10 minutes after emerging from anesthesia. BP, HR, SpO2, analgesic effect and sedative drug doses in both groups were recorded. Procedure time, recovery time and Rasmay sedation score were both recorded. Results Recovery time was significantly longer in group PM than that in group P (P<0.05). The total dose of propofol was significantly smaller in group PM than that in group P (P<0.05). MMSE score of both groups decreased, but the incidence of cognitive decline and the level of cognition in group PM were more notable than those of group P (P<0.05). Conclusions Midazolam plus propofol and propo-fol alone administered for colonoscopy could both increase the incidence of cognitive decline, and the effect of the former is more notable, but midazolam added to propofol could reduce the dosage of propofol.

Pronunciation obstacle is one of the characteristics of hearing and speech disabled persons. As the main organ of pronunciation,tongue plays an important role in pronunciation training. If the pronunciation visualization is applied to rehabilitation training, this can make the hearing and speech disabled persons intuitively watch the change of the tongue in the process of pronunciation, which may promote the rehabilitation training. On the basis of tongue anatomical structure and movement characteristics, the common movements of tongue in pronunciation are realized after the establishment of three-dimensional tongue muscle model and the relevant data of the tongue Xray images and electropalatography. Using this kind of visualization technology, we can help correction and rehabilitation for the hearing and speech disabled persons.
