Objective To study the correlation of measuring bone density for diagnosing osteoporosis between VQCT and DXA. Methods 50 patients were measured bone density coinstantaneous by DXA and VQCT. All of the data was saved in computer and analyzed by SPSS soft.Results According to WHO criterion 14 patients were osteoporosis by F-DXA and 9 by S-DXA,and 23 by VQCT.The percent was respective 28%,18% and 46%. The results of VQCT were significantly different from the results of F-DXA and S-DXA (?

Objective To investigate the accuracy of staging gastric cancer with multi slice spiral CT (MSCT) .Methods MSCT,3D reformation images and CTVE were performed in 39 patients with gastric cancer confirmed by gastroscopy and biopsy.The MSCT images were compared with the pathological findings.Results The accuracy of staging gastric cancer by MSCT in combination with 3D reformation images and CTVE was 86.7%. Conclusion The accuracy of staging gastric cancer by MSCT in combination with 3D reformative images and CTVE is very high.It is valuable to be extended clinically.

Objective To assess feasibility of three-dimensional(3D) reconstruction techniques and virtual gastroscopy of CT(CTVG)in diagnosing gastric tumors.Methods 22 cases doubted with gastric lesions were scaned by mutislice helic CT and reconstructed into CTVG and 3D images.The results were compared with fiberoptic gastroscopy(FG) and all of the cases were sure with gastric lesions and biopsied by gastroscopy or surgery operation.Results 22 patients was examinated successfully,and the lesions was proved by pathology of FG or operation.According to location and shape of lesions,there were more ulcer type(16) and more located at gastric antrum(14) in this specimen.Both CTVG and FG had one misdiagnosis respectively.Conclusion CTVG combined with 3D of MSCT is same sensitivity and specificity as FG.

Objective To study the value of clinical applications of multi-slice spiral CT(MSCT)3D reconstruction and MPR in knee joint traumatic fracture and the imaging technique of multi-slice spiral CT 3D.Methods 24 cases underwent MSCT and all data sets were done 3D and MPR in ADW 3.1 workstation.Results 3D reconstruction can indicated the site,direction of alignment,fracture degree,colapse,displacement length of trauma knee joint,MPR can viewed damage inside the bone.Conclusion 3D reconstruction and MPR has high application value in clinical diagnosis and choosing therapy methods.

Serum cortisol levels during oral glucose tolerance test (OGTY) were measured in subjects of type 2 diabetic pedigrees. The results showed that cortisol levels during OGTF were higher in type 2 diabetic patients than those in non-diabetic first-degree relatives and normal controls. Fasting cortisol level was positively correlated with fasting plasma glucose level in type 2 diabetic pedigree members. These results suggest that the dysregulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis may coexist in type 2 diabetic patients.

Objective To investigate the change of serum non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) level in nondiabetic first-degree relatives of type 2 diabetics, and to explore the related factors in the change.MethodsSerum lipid profile, plasma glucose and insulin levels were measured in 186 type 2 diabetic patients, 565 nondiabetic first-degree relatives of type 2 diabetics and 149 normal controls. Results (1) The fasting NEFA level in first-degree relatives was significantly lower than that of type 2 diabetic patients [(0.53±0.28 vs 0.63±0.31) mmol/L,P＜0.01]and HOMA-IR was significantly higher than that of normal controls (0.98±0.51 vs 0.89±0.47,P＜0.01). (2) The fasting NEFA level in the first-degree relatives with higher body mass index (BMI), plasma glucose or area under curve of glucose concentration (AUCglu) was higher than that in those with lower BMI, plasma glucose , blood pressure or AUCglu (all P＜0.05). (3) NEFA showed significantly positive correlations with BMI, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure (DBP), AUCglu in the first-degree relatives by correlative analysis (r=0.12, r=0.148, r=0.21 and r=0.281 respectively, all P＜0.05). Stepwise linear regression analysis showed that DBP, AUCglu and age were the independent risk factors of NEFA (all P＜0.01). Conclusion Insulin resistance exists in nondiabetic first-degree relatives of type 2 diabetics, which seems to be related to elevated NEFA levels.

Objective To explore the variation and influential factors of high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) level in type 2 diabetic family members. Methods A total of 427 type 2 diabetic patients, 377 non-diabetic first-degree relatives of type 2 diabetics and 135 normal control subjects without diabetic family history were recruited. Serum hs-CRP, clinical and biochemical parameters were measured. The relations among indicators were analyzed. Results Compared with normal control subjects, serum hs-CRP levels in type 2 diabetics and first-degree relatives were significantly increased (both P＜0.05), and the increment was even marked in type 2 diabetics than that in first-degree relatives (P＜0.01). The serum hs-CRP levels in type 2 diabetics and first-degree relatives were positively associated with body mass index, waist-hip ratio, abdominal circumference, postgrandial 2 h plasma glucose, fasting and postgrandial 2 h serum insulin, HOMA-IR, triglyceride, creatinine and negatively correlated with high density lipoprotein-cholesterol. In first-degree relatives, serum hs-CRP level was positively associated with systolic blood pressure and HOMA-β. Conclusion As in type 2 diabetic patients, there exists inflammatory reaction in the non-diabetic first-degree relatives of type 2 diabetics, which may play an important role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Objective To study the value of multi-slice spiral CT(MSCT)and high-resolution MR in evaluating the feasibility of total mesorectal excision(TME)for rectal cancer before operation.Methods Sixty-three cases biopsy-proven rectal cancer underwent MSCT and high-resolution MR examination,including CT in 35 and MR in 28.The involvement of mesorectal fascia,lymph nodes extra-fascia and the curve distance between the lesions and the anal margin were observed and compared with that of operation and pathology.Results In evaluating the involvement of mesorectal fascia,two patients were oversteped by CT and one patient by MRI,and there was no significantly statistic difference between CT and MRI.The curve distance between lesions and anal margis could be measured accurately on sagittal section of MR images in all cases.Sixteen patients had been found having metastatic lymph nodes at extra-mesorectal fascia,twelve of them were biopsy-proven.Thirty-seven patients had been found having metastatic lymph nodes at intra-mesorectal fascia,but 4 of them were inflammatory biopsy-proven.Conclusion MSCT and high-resolution MR are of significant values in evaluating the feasibility of TME in the patients with rectal carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Houpu Paiqi mixture in treatment of functional dyspepsia (FD)with abdominal distension symptom.Methods From July 2014 to June 2015 , in nine centers,a total of 162 FD patients with abdominal distension symptom and met Rome Ⅲpostprandial distress syndrome (PDS)diagnostic criteria were enrolled.All patients were randomly divided into trial group and control group,81 patients in either group.The patients of trial group and control group took Houpu Paiqi mixture or placebo,respectively,25 mL per time,twice daily,and both the courses of treatment were two weeks.Before and after the treatment,the improvement of main symptoms,total clinical efficacy rate and efficacy of traditional medicine between two groups were compared.Chi square test,Fisher exact probability method and Wilcoxon test were performed for statistical analysis.Results According to the results of per-protocol (PP)analysis,the total efficacy rate of trial group and control group was 69.4% (50/72)and 59.2% (42/71),respectively,and there was no statistically significant difference in total efficacy rate between the two groups (χ2 =1 .650,P =0.199 ). And there was no statistically significant difference in the improvement of PDS main symptoms(postprandial fullnessand early satiety)between the two groups (56.3% ±27.9% vs 54.4% ±32.1%,t =0.606,P =0.727 ).For those with baseline symptom score over 14,median early satiety score of trial group after the treatment was 0,which was lower than that of control group,and the difference was statistically significant (Z =-2.370,P =0.018).The total efficacy rate of traditional medicine of trial group was 80.8% (59/73 )and that of control group was 72.0% (54/75 ),and the difference was not statistically significant (χ2 = 0.676,P =0.411 ).Conclusion Houpu Paiqi mixture has certain efficacy in FD with abdominal distension,and could be used for the treatment of PDS-predominant FD.
