Results The clinical manifestation of 2 cases included splenohepatomegalia,splanchnocoel hydrops,endocrine func- tional disorder,nigrescence on face,protein of CSF and IgA and immunoglobulin light chain of serum increasing.The symptoms of 2 patients improved after treatment with hormone and L-Sarcolysinum.Conclusion POEMS syndrome is a rare and complicated disease that can be misdiagnosed.Follow up associated with immunology,endocrine and bone marrow aspiration examination should be carried in time on the patients suspected with POEMS syndrome,which is valu- able to the diagnosis and reducing misdiagnosis and mistreatment.

Objective To explore a new method which could detect the misplacement of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC).Methods The action of coughing was applied to 252 patients and observing the changes in dripping speed.Results The accuracy rate of this new method was 100.00％ (252/252).The success rate of first PICC in these patients was also 100.00％ (252/252).Conclusions It suggests that the new method Should be effective and convenient in the assessment of PICC misplacement and it can be applied to detect the misplacement occurred in and after the process of PICC.

Objective To evaluate the plasma level of miR-21 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients and its clinical diagnostic significance .Methods Case-control study was used .The plasma level of miR-21 was measured by real-time quantitative PCR.The relative expressions of miR-21 were calculated. This study included 60 cases of patients with HCC , 71 patients with liver cirrhosis ( LC ) , 52 healthy volunteers ( HV) from January to June in 2014 in Henan Province People′s Hospital.The receiver operating characteristic ( ROC) curves were analyzed to determine the sensitivity and specificity of miR-21 expression levels in HCC diagnosis. Differences between groups were assessed by the t-test.Results Plasma microRNA-21 level in the 60 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma ( 2.6 ±1.1 ) was significantly higher than in patients with chronic hepatitis (1.6 ±0.9) and healthy volunteers (1.0 ±0.6) (t=5.322,P=0.004;t =8.349, P =0.000 3, respectively ) .Plasma microRNA-21 level in the HCC patients were positively correlated with tumor size and differentiation (tdif=3.366,P=0.019;tsize =3.490,P=0.012). ROC analysis of plasma microRNA-21 yielded an AUC of 0.796 with 70.0% sensitivity and 65.3%specificity when differentiating hepatocellular carcinoma from chronic hepatitis , and an AUC of 0.934 with 89.5% sensitivity and 81.8% specificity when differentiating hepatocellular carcinoma from healthy volunteers.Conclusion The plasma level of miR-21 in HCC patients has high specificity , and maybe help to diagnose of HCC.

Objective To assess the clinical significance of reverse trendelenburg position in preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)in thyroid surgery.Methods 110 patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC) admitted from Feb.2013 to Mar.2014 were prospectively divided into experimental group and the control group according to whether reserve trendelenburg position was adopted.Univariate and multivariate method were used to analyze relations between PONV and surgical position,gender,age,body mass index,hypertension,surgical time,ASA classification,anesthesia,and motion sickness.Results Of the 110 cases of PTC,the incidence of PONV was 16.28％ (7/43) in the experimental group while it was 37.31％ (25/67) in the control group.The difference had statistical significance(P ＜ 0.05).Statistical analysis showed that PONV was related to patients'gender,surgical position,surgical time,and motion sickness,while only surgical position and motion sickness was the independent risk factors.Conclusion Reverse trendelenburg position surgery can help to prevent PONV and promote recovery.

Objective To explore the application value of real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT-3DE) in diagnosis of structural heart disease through a comparison with two dimensional echocardiography (2DE).Methods Ninety-two patients with heart disease were enrolled from October 2009 to February 2014 , all of whom were examined by RT-3DE.By cutting and spiraling structural 3D images of lesions in regions of interest , we made a diagnosis of lesions .In addition, the size of atrial(ASD) and ventricular septal defects (VSD),based on surgical results,was measured and analyzed.By comparing the coherence and difference of diagnosis on structural heart disease examined by 2DE and RT-3DE, the accuracy and superiority of RT-3DE were evaluated.Results (1)The 3D images of 92 patients with heart disease were successfully obtained by RT-3DE.The structure of lesions was displayed directly from various angles .In addition, the position, scope and degree of lesions and the spatial relationship of adjacent structures were accurately confirmed.RT-3DE provided more direct, accurate and abundant information than 2DE.(2)In the diagnosis of congenital heart disease, the diagnostic accordance rate of RT-3DE was the same as that of 2DE, but was slightly higher in the diagnosis of valvular disease and other lesions .( 3 ) Compared with 2DE, the ASD maximum diameters obtained from RT-3DE were more correlaed with surgical findings (r=0.94,0.86),so were the VSD maximum diameters (r=0.93, 0.84).Conclusion RT-3DE is easy to operate and quick to produce image ,which can provide more spatial information than 2DE in structural heart disease diagnosis , increase the accuracy rate of diagnosis , and serve as a supplement to 2DE.
