The clinical data of 91 patients with axillary cystic/solid mass receiving ultrasound-guided mass puncture in Hangzhou Red Cross Hospital and Hangzhou Third Hospital from March 2010 to October 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.The biopsy cytology examination and routain bacteria culture of puncture fluid were applied in 44 cases ( control group); while X-pert examination of puncture fluid was performed in addition to biopsy cytology examination and routain bacteria culture in 47 cases ( study group) . The histopathological examination of surgical specimens were used as gold standard.The overall diagnostic accuracy rates of study and control groups were 93.6% (44/47) and 68.2% (30/44), respectively(P=0.002) .The diagnostic accuracy rates for tuberculous abscess in study and control groups were 100.0%(28/28)and 57.7%(15/26), respectively (P=0.000).However, there were no significant differences in diagnosis of other diseases, including metastatic carcinoma, abscess other than tuberculous and lymphatic hygroma between two groups.The study shows that diagnostic accuracy of multiple examination methods of puncture fluid for axillary cystic/solid mass is high and has clinical application value.

Objective To understand the present condition of preclinical dental undergraduate in-terns' AIDS-related knowledge. Methods The questionnaire was designed referring to domestic and foreign relevant questionnaires. The cluster sampling method was used to conduct the questionnaire survey among the undergraduates who started their clinical internship in July 2016 in three domestic colleges, using SPSS 14.0 statistical software to analyze it. Results In this survey, 144 questionnaires were distributed, and 144 ones were filled out and sent back. The survey results suggested that 97.22％ (140) of interns held a posi-tive attitude towards aiding HIV-infected patients despite that 96.53％ (139) of interns knew that dental medical staff was considered to be highly susceptible with HIV. In spite of the fact that most interns knew AIDS-related knowledge and protection measures, 40.28％ (58) of interns were not clear about incubation period of AIDS, and the average awareness of children's AIDS and methods to disinfect HIV-infected dental instruments was less than half in the interns. Meanwhile it was found that 86.81％ (125) of interns didn't perform well in terms of complying with the principles of confidentiality in AIDS prevention and treatment. Conclusion Dental clinical interns' attitudes towards AIDS-infected patients should be praised. Further-more, they should accept education about infection control to have a deeper understanding about AIDS-related clinical manifestations and legal knowledge in order to reduce the probability of nosocomial infec-tion of AIDS.

Objective To asses the value of ST segment elevation of aVR lead (aVRSTE) in patients with acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Method Myocardial enzymes detection, electrocar-dingraphy, emergency eornary artery angiography, echoeardiography [taken(10±2) days after emergency cornary artery angiography] were obtained and analyzed in 140 consecutive patients with STEMI enrolled in this study. The value of aVRSTE (≥0.05 mV) was assessed for detecting left main stem lesions(defined as ≥50% stenosis of or acute embolism of left main stem)or its equivalent (defined as total or subtotal acute occlusion of left anterior de-scending artery), and predicting the left ventricular systolic function after myocardial infarction. Results The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of aVRSIE in detection of left main stem lesions were 72.73 % (8/11), 83.72 % (108/129),27.59 % (8/29) and 97.30% (108/111), respectively; in detection of left main stem lesions or its equivalent, they were 41.86 % (18/43), 88.66% (86/97), 62.07 % (18/29), 77.48% (86/111); aVRSYE were combined with STaVR-STv1>0 to detect left main stem lesions, the semi-tivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 63.64% (7/11),98.45%(127/129),77.78%(7/9),96.95% (127/131). Patients were divided into two groups: groups A with aVRSIE and group B without aVRSYE. KIIJJP class,and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in group A was higher than those in group B (P<0.05). Conclusions For patients with STEMI: (1) aVRSTE indicated left main stem le-sions or its equivalent; if combined with STaVR-STv1>0, it indicated left main stem lesions more strongly; (2)aVRSTE predicted poorer left ventricular systohc function short time after STEMI.

Objective To assess the clinical value of 18 F-FDG PET/CT for the patients with ascites of unknown causes.Methods A total of 106 patients with ascites undergoing 18 F-FDG PET/CT examination was retrospectively studied and 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging was interpreted by two ways.(1)PET/CT(localization):Diagnostic results of PET/CT depended on the degree of 18 F-FDG uptake in peritoneum with CT was trecoted as anatomical localization,and high 18F-FDG uptake in peritoneum was regarded as malignancy.(2)PET/CT(mor-phology):Morphological changes of peritoneum on CT imaging and the degree of 18 F-FDG uptake on PET ima-ging were simultaneously considered when interpreting the diagnostic results of PET/CT.Results In the differen-tial diagnosis of ascites of unknown cause,the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of PET/CT( localization) were 90.2%,71.1%and 82.1%,respectively.These values of PET/CT(morphology)were 95.1%,93.3% and 94. 3%,and 85.2%of malignant ascites were found primary lesion.The specificity and accuracy of PET/CT( mor-phology)were higher than those of PET/CT(localization)(P=0.002,P<0.001).Statistical difference was not found in both sensitivities.Conclusion PET/CT( morphology) had higher clinical value than PET/CT( localiza-tion) in the differential diagnosis of ascites with unknown cause,and had important significance in detecting pri-mary cause of malignant ascites.

OBJECTIVETo study the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound in tuberculous cervical lymph node biopsy.

METHODSSeventy-nine patients with cervical lymph node were divided into two groups. The lymph nodes of group A were used as real-time ultrasound guided biopsy; the lymph nodes of group B were contrast-enhanced ultrasound firstly to determine the target lymph node and the puncture point, then were detected with needle biopsy.

RESULTSGroup A: for the 23 lymph nodes of 23 patients, the rate of intact tissue was 52.1% and the positive rate of pathological diagnosis was 73.9%. Group B: for the 56 lymph nodes of 56 patients, the rate of intact tissue was 98.2% and the positive rate of pathological diagnosis was 100% (Chi square value was 23.37 and 12.31, P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe application of contrast-enhanced ultrasound before cervical lymph node biopsy can obviously improve the rate of intact tissue and the positive rate of pathological diagnosis.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of dexmedetomidine combined with ulinastatin on stress reaction indexes,ex-travascular lung water value(EVLW)and pulmonary vascular permeability indexes(PVPI)and other parameters in one-lung venti-lation(OLV)lobectomy patients. METHODS:A total of 80 patients underwent OLV lobectomy selected from the Affiliated Hospi-tal of Southwest Medical University during Nov. 2015-Nov. 2016 were divided into control group (group N),ulinastatin pretreat-ment group(group U),dexmedetomidine continuous pump group(group D),ulinastatin pretreatment+dexmedetomidine continu-ous pump group(group U+D),with 20 cases in each group. Thirty min before anesthesia induction,all patients were given atro-pine sulfate 0.5 mg intramuscularly and received catheterization of right internal jugular vein and ipsilateral femoral artery under lo-cal anesthesia. Based on that,group N was given 0.9％ Sodium chloride injection 100 mL intravenously;group U was given sodi-um chloride mixed solution 100 mL containing Ulinastatin for injection 200000 U intravenously;group D was given continuous in-travenous pump of Dexmedetomidine hydrochloride injection 2 μg/mL mixed with sodium chloride mixed solution at 1 μg/(kg·h), and after induction intravenous pump at 0.5 μg/(kg·h)until the end of surgery;group U+D was given Sodium chloride mixed so-lution containing 200000 U ulinastatin 50 mL and 4 μg/mL dexmedetomidine sodium chloride mixed solution 50 mL intravenously (same dose as above during induction period and maintenance period). The levels of blood glucose,partial pressure of oxy-gen [p(O2)],adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH),norepi-nephrine (NE),heart rate (HR),cardiac output (CO),sys-temic vascular resistance(SVR),EVLW and PVPI were com-pared among 4 groups 30 min before anesthesia induction(T1),2 h after the beginning of surgery(T2),immediately after extuba-tion(T3)and 12 h after surgery(T4). Liquid intake and output volume were recorded during T2-T4. The occurrence of ADR among 4 groups was observed. RESULTS:There was no statistical significance in each index among 4 groups at T1 (P>0.05). During T2-T4,the levels of blood glucose,ACTH,NE,SVR,EVLW and PVPI in group N were significantly higher than other 3 groups, and group U and D were significantly higher than group U+D,with statistical significance(P<0.05);there was no statistical sig-nificance between U and D(P>0.05). The levels of p(O2)and CO in groups U+D were significantly higher than other 3 groups, with statistical significance (P<0.05);there was no statistical significance among other 3 groups (P>0.05). HR of group N and U were significantly higher than other 2 groups,with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance be-tween group N and U,between group D and U+D(P>0.05). There was no statistical significance in liquid intake or output vol-ume among 4 groups (P>0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 4 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Dexmedetomidine combined with ulinastatin can significantly relieve stress reaction,and reduce the levels of part blood flow and respiratory dynamics indexes as EV-LW,PVPI in patients with OLV lobectomy so as to play lung protective effect.

Objective:To explore the relationship between serum cytokine levels and cognitive impairment in patients with bipolar I manic episode.Methods:Forty-four patients with bipolar I manic episode (BDI group) and 42 healthy volunteers (HC group) matched with demographic data were included.Peripheral serum interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10), interleukin-23 (IL-23), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The repeatable battery for the assessment of neuropsychological status (RSPM) was used to evaluate the cognitive function of the two groups.Young manic rating scale (YMRS) was used to evaluate the clinical manic symptoms of patients.Hypothesis testing and correlation analysis were processed by SPSS 22.0.Results:(1) The expression levels of serum cytokines IL-6, IL-10, IL-23 and TNF-α in BDI group ((38.872±7.803), (33.259±7.260), 42.350(33.600, 55.390), (108.309±19.398)) were significantly different with those in HC group ((24.664±6.083), (29.257±5.208), 17.360(12.870, 30.690), (68.674±13.610)), and the differences were statistically significant (( t=9.387, t=2.947, Z=-5.477, t=10.921, all P<0.01)). (2) In the RBANS cognitive test, the visual span, attention, delayed memory and total scale scores of the BP group ((92.909±16.126). (83.091±8.529), (80.636±9.592), (416.318±33.438)) were significantly different with those of the HC group ((82.905±10.958), (92.381±14.850), (93.714±7.613), (436.905±37.228), t=3.378, t=-3.538, t=-6.982, t=-2.700, all P<0.05). (3)Correlation analysis showed that in the BDI group, the course of disease was positively correlated with IL-6 and IL-23( r=0.509, r=0.298, P<0.05), the visual breadth was positively correlated with IL-10 and TNF-α ( r=0.426, r=0.647, P<0.05), language was negatively correlated with IL-23 level ( r=-0.372, P<0.05), attention was significantly negatively correlated with IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-α ( r=-0.315, r=-0.318, r=-0.498, all P<0.05), delayed memory was positively correlated with IL-10 and TNF-α ( r=-0.360, r=-0.621, P<0.05). No significant correlation was found between YRMS score, immediate memory score and cytokines ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Patients with bipolar I disorder manic have changes in serum levels of cytokines and cognitive dysfunction. The course of disease and cognitive function are related with serum cytokine level.

Objective : To explore the difference of serum inflammatory factors in patients with first episode schizo- phrenia , patients with relapse episode schizophrenia and healthy people , and the correlation between serum inflam- matory factors with negative symptoms in patients with schizophrenia , so as to provide reference for clinical inter- vention . Methods : A total of 86 patients with first episode schizophrenia (first episode group) , 80 patients with re- lapse episode schizophrenia ( relapse episode group) and 82 healthy people ( control group) were included in the study. The difference of serum inflammatory factors among the three groups and the correlation between serum inflammatory factors with negative symptoms were analyzed . Results : There were significant differences in serum interleukin (IL) -1βand IL-16 levels among the three groups (P < 0. 05) . The analysis and comparison between the two groups showed that the serum IL-1βin first episode group was significantly higher than that in relapse episode group and control group(P < 0. 05) , serum IL-16 in first episode group and relapse episode group was significantly higher than that in control group(P < 0. 05) . Serum IL-1βwas negatively correlated with PANSS general psycho- pathological scale factor score in first episode group( P < 0. 05) , and serum IL-16 was positively correlated with PANSS negative symptom scale factor score in relapse episode group( P < 0. 05) . IL-16 level might be an inde- pendent risk factor affecting the onset of first episode group and relapse episode group(P < 0. 05) . Conclusion There are differences in serum levels of IL-1βand IL-16 between patients with schizophrenia and healthy people . Serum IL-16 levels in patients with relapse episode schizophrenia are associated with negative symptoms . IL-16 lev- el may be an independent risk factor for schizophrenia.
