Headache is a common clinical symptom.Some headache disorders belong to secondary category.Many intracranial disorders,such as head trauma,cerebral vascular diseases,intracranial tumors and inflammation,can lead to headache due to mass effect,inflammation reaction,stimulation of vasoactive substances and decreased intracranial pressure.Furthermore,many drugs and other substances,disorders of eyes,nose,ear,mouth,neck and other systemic disorders can also cause headache.Many headache disorders can be determined by detailed case history and physical examination.Blood test,lumber puncture,CT,MRI and other imaging examinations are necessary methods for finding the causes and the treatment of diseases.

Construction of knowledge service system for university students'innovation and undertaking training program was proposed by analyzing their difficulties in information access during innovation and undertaking train-ing.The key points in constructing knowledge service system were pointed out, namely establishing professional service teams, providing stereoscopic and diversified service, establishing feedback and evaluation systems, and building powerful platform for information exchange.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) on the stature of children with Turner syndrome(TS) and analyze its influencing factors in treatment.Methods Twelve children with TS were selected in the outpatient department of West China second hospital of sichuan university between Jan.2004 to Jun.2007.They were diagnosed as TS with karyotypically.The average age was 4.9-16.9(11.28?3.64)years old.Every patient must be made sure to have normal liver function,kidney funtion and MRI for hypothalamus and pituitary before enrollment.All cases were never treated with growth hormone or estrin.Not all the patients had the same manifestations:12 cases with short stature,9 cases with cubitus valgue,8 cases with broad chest,4 cases with low posterior hairline,2 cases with webbed neck,11 cases without pubes and armpit hair,none with menarche.Every patient must be made sure to have normal liver function,kidney funtion and MRI for hypothalamus and pituitary before enrollment.rhGH was used subcutaneously 3-5 cm around navel eve-ry night before sleep.Average rhGH dose was 0.16 IU/(kg?d)[0.15-0.18 IU/(kg?d)],and height standard deviation score (HtSDS) was calculated and compared before and after rhGH treatment,and adverse reactions were observed.Results The duration of treatment was different:9 cases for 12 cases months,2 cases for 15 cases months and 1 case for 18 cases months.The average height increase rat was (0.55?0.15) cm / month.Difference of HtSDS existed before and after treatment by t test(t=2.87 P

OBJECTIVETo verify the clinical efficacy on post-stroke dysphagia treated with acupuncture at Lianquan (CV 23).

METHODSOne hundred and eighty patients were randomized into an acupuncture A group, an acupuncture B group and a rehabilitation group, 60 cases in each one. On the basis of the conventional medication, in the acupuncture A group, acupuncture was applied at Lianquan (CV 23); in the acupuncture B group, acupuncture was applied at Hegu (LI 4) and Neiguan (PC 6) and in the rehabilitation group, the swallowing rehabilitation training was adopted. The treatment was given once a day, 5 times a week, and the 4 weeks of treatment was required in all of the groups. The national institute of health stroke scale (NIHSS) and TV X-ray fluoroscope swallowing scale (VFSS) were used to evaluate neurologic deficit and swallowing function before and after treatment in the patients of each group. The morbidity of pneumonia and clinical efficacy were compared among the groups.

RESULTSThe scores of NIHSS and VFSS were improved apparently after treatment in the patients of the three groups (all P < 0.05) and the results in the acupuncture A group were superior to those in the other two groups (all P < 0.05). The morbidity of pneumonia in the acupuncture A group was lower than that in the acupuncture B group and the rehabilitation group [3.3% (2/60) vs 6.7% (4/60), 8.3% (5/60), both P < 0.05]. The effective rate in the acupuncture A group was better than that in either of the other two groups [95.0% (57/60) vs 81.7% (49/ 60), 75.0% (45/60), both P < 0.05].

CONCLUSIONOn the basis of the conventional medication, acupuncture at Lianquan (CV 23) effectively improves the swallowing function, relieves neurological deficit and reduces the morbidity of pneumonia in the patients of post-stroke dysphagia.

Objective　To evaluate low magnetic field MRI findings for diagnosis of bronchogenic carcinoma.Methods　Conventional MRI of surgical-patholo-gically confimed bronchogenic carcioma(132 cases)were analysed.Results　The carcinomatous masses have generally middle signal intensity with homogeneous appearance on T1W images,and high signal intensity with heterogenous appearance on T2W images.MRI is an efficient modality to show the hilar and mediastinal lymph node metastases,pleural effusions and carcinmatous invasions of the great vessel,the bronchus,the pleura,the chest wall,and pericardium.It is possible to distinguish mass from obstuctive lesion on MRI.Conclusion　Accrding to the mentioned sign and the morphological features of the carcinomatous masses,primary diagnosis of bronchogenic carcinoma can be made on MRI.

Information literacy teaching reform of medical undergraduates was described in terms of teaching forms, teaching methods, and examination methods according to the requirements for medical course education re-form in medical education criteria for undergraduates with measures put forward that should be taken by the teaching administrative organs, such as making information literacy education universal, implementing advanced teaching methods, and incorporating specialized subject course teaching into information literacy education.

Objective:To explore the effects of diltiazem on ventricular remodeling and inflammation in rat heart following acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods:The model of AMI rats was randomly divided into diltiazem group(D group)and control group(AMI group),besides another group of sham operation(S group).The data of ejection fraction(EF) and the left ventricular mass(LVM)were examined with echocardiography,and leukocyte infiltration in situ was analyzed on the HE staining slices,with the expression of proinflammatory cytokines(IL-I?,IL-6,TNF-?)detected by RT-PCR at 1d,3d,1w,2w and 4w intervals after AMI.Results:The results from echocardiography showed that EF increased(73.7?3.1% vs 61.0?2.6%)and LVM decreased(0.81?0.12g vs 0.92?0.12g),both significantly in D group at 4w,compared with those of the AMI group(P
