Objective: Medical therapy to prevent persistent ectopic pregnancy (PEP) after conservative laparoscopic operation was investigated. Methods:236 patients with ectopic pregnancy were divided into three groups according to the time of hospitalization. 83 cases were in group A, hyperosmolar glucose was injected into the fallopian tube lumen after laparoscopic salpingostomy. 81 cases were in group B, MTX was injected in the same way, 72 cases were in group C as control group. Serum β-HCG was tested for four times, before the operation, the first, third and a week after the operation respectively. Results:There were 6 patients of PEP in this study. One patient in group A, one patient in group B, the rest four patients in group C. The incidence of PEP was not statistically significant between group A and B( P>0. 05), while the difference was significant between group A and C ( P<0. 05). Serum β-HCG in three groups descended significantly in the first 24 hours after operation, but there were no differences among these groups. As for the descending of β-HCG in day 3 and 7, there was no difference between group A and B, but the difference was magnificent between group A and C( P < 0.05). Conclusions: Compared with the MTX, hyperosmolar glucose is an effective and safer method to prevent PEP.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of posttraumatic hydrocephalus (PTH) in patients with moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI).Methods Aretrospective study was conducted for 183 patients with moderate to severe TBI (125 males,58 females;6-91 years of age,mean 48.23 years).According the presence of PTH,the patients were allocated into PTH group (n =34) and non-PTH group (n =149).Risk factors of PTh were assessed by univariate and logistic regression analysis,including gender,age,injury types,injury severity,intraventricular hemorrhage,subarachnoid hemorrhage,midline shift,subdural effusion,therapeutic strategies and skull defect.Association between the boundaries of skull defect and PTH was determined.Results Between-group differences were not significant regarding age,gender,injury types and intraventricular hemorrhage (P ＞ 0.05),but differed significantly in injury severity,subarachnoid hemorrhage,midline shift,subdural effusion,craniectomy and skull defect (P ＜ 0.05).Further Logistic regression analysis confirmed subarachnoid hemorrhage (OR =6.169),interhemispheric subdural effusion (OR =31.743),and unilateral (OR =17.602) and bilateral (OR =30.567) skull defects were risk factors of PTH.Of the patients with unilateral skull defect following decompressive craniectomy,the inferior limit ≤ 10 mm from the zygomatic arch also played a role in the development of PTH (OR =5.500,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Subarachnoid hemorrhage,interhemispheric subdural effusion and skull defect are risk factors of PTH.Unilateral skull defects with the inferior limit too close to the zygomatic arch can predispose to the development of PTH.

We carry out the tutorial system in the standardized training of residents,promote students to grasp the clinical skills and clinical research and thinking,and promote teachers' professional theoretical level and teaching ability.In the orthopedic rotation we define the teaching focus to the trainees of different seniority:for junior trainees,the training of medical records writing and basic clinical skills should be focused,and for senior trainees,the emphasis of training is to improve their clinical capacity of diagnosis and treatment.In teaching,the teaching methods of a combination of Multidisciplinary team (MDT) of bone and soft tissue tumors and problem based learning (PBL) have been actively tried to improve students' learning enthusiasm and initiative,which helps the trainees fully grasp the diagnosis and treatment of certain diseases.

Objective To investigate the association between chronotropic incompetence (CI)and motor ability in type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) patients complicated with metabolic syndrome (MS).Methods One hundred and twenty patients with T2DM were enrolled in the study,including 66 cases with MS (MS group) and 54 without MS (non-MS group).The electrocardiographic exercise test was performed,the CI indexes including ratio of heart rate (rHR),heart rate reserve (HRR)were measured and the max metabolic equivalents(maxMETs) were calculated.Result The rHR(0.77 ±0.04 vs.0.81 ±0.06,t =3.41,P ＜ 0.05),HRR (0.62 ± 0.05 vs.0.70 ± 0.07,t =5.96,P ＜ 0.05) and maxMETs (8.8 ± 1.1 vs.9.7 ± 1.2,t =0.16,P ＜ 0.05) in patients of MS group all lower than those in non-MS group.The maxMETs were positively correlated with rHR (r =0.81,P ＜ 0.05) and HRR (r =0.78,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The results indicate that CI as well as maxMETs and rating of perceived exertion can be used as monitoring index in type 2 diabetic patients complicated with metabolic syndrome.

Objective To analyze the CT findings of heterotopic pancreas and the correlation with pathologic changes.Methods CT findings in 1 9 patients with heterotopic pancreas proven by surgery were reviewed retrospectively,14 of whom were scanned with enhanced CT.The correlation of CT findings and pathologic results were also analyzed.Results All patients had a single lesion with sized range from 0.8 to 4.7 cm and mean diameter of (2.2±0.6)cm.All lesions with homogeneous density were showed on plain scans including 7 lesions in stomach,8 in duodenum,2 in jejunum,1 in ileum and 1 beside the cardiac lymph nodes.The border of the lesions in 5 was unclear with exudative changes,mimicking acute pancreatitis.A sign of central umbilical concave was found in 2.Pathological results confirmed 14 lesions in submucosa,3 in muscular layer,1 in serosal layer and 1 in abdominal cavity.Hetero-topic pancreas presented early obvious enhancement in 9,mimicking normal pancreas,which was composed chiefly of pancreatic aci-ni.The enhanced degree of 4 lesions was lower than normal pancreas,which were composed of pancreas ductal epithelium and few pancreatic acini.No significantly enhancement was seen in 1,mimicing liomyoma,which was composed chiefly of pancreas ductal epithelium and smooth muscle hyperplasia.Conclusion Heterotopic pancreas in most cases presents characteristic submucosal disea-ses-like pattern,and different enhanced patterns of heterotopic pancreas are related with the pathologic changes.
