Objective To evaluate the application of the transurethral vapor-resection of the prostate(TU- VRP) for bladder outlet obstruction(BOO) in patients with prostate eaneer(PCa). Methods Of 33 patients with BOO. 18 were definitely diagnosed with PCa and after treatment they still had symptoms of BOO;15 cases were di- agnosed with benign prostate hyperplasia(BPH). All patients underwent TUVRP for BOO. Results All cases were successfully done. Postoperative complications included transient urinary ineontinenee in 5 ,and gross hematuria in 9. 27 patients were followed up(10-36 months).8 cases died of PCa,with a mean survival of 31 months.5 cases died of other diseases. After treatment, PSA levels decreased to ( 10.2 ± 6.7) μg/L. The average residual urinary volume (RU) decreased to (39.7 ± 13.9) ml, and the average IPSS was (8.7 ± 1.6 ). Compared with those of preoperation, the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05 ). Conelnsion TUVRP is a reliable treatment for prostate cancer with bladder outlet obstruction.

Objective To observe the effect of Huoluojiangu Capsule(HJC) on anti-inflammatory experiment.Methods The anti-inflammatory experimental models were established in three kinds of rats with pleuritis,the swellen sole of the foot and the PGE_2 content in inflammatory tissues,respectively.Results The swollen reaction in the sole of foot in rats induced by egg white was lessoned with the treatment of low,middle and high dosage of HJC.Compared with the blank control group,the treatment is effective in low dosage group and evidently effective in groups of middle and high dosage after 30 min(P0.05),respectively.Compared with the blank control group,the effect of HJC on the PGE_2 content in the inflammatory tissues of middle and high dosage groups was significant(P

Objective:To investigate impacts of a deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) algorithm on image quality of lower extremity CTA with low kVp and reverse flow direction scanning.Methods:From January 2021 to March 2021, fifty patients with suspected lower extremities diseases and received lower extremity CTA with low kVp and reverse flow direction scanning in Union Hospital affiliated to Fujian Medical University were retrospectively collected in this study. Six groups of CT images were reconstructed at the thickness of 0.625 mm using two algorithms including ASIR-V of three blending ratios (ASIR-V 20%, ASIR-V 50% and ASIR-V 80%) and DLIR of three strengths (DLIR-H, DLIR-M and DLIR-L). Regions of interest (ROIs) were placed on proximal abdominal aorta (AA), distal AA, left and right common iliac arteries, left and right femoral arteries (upper segment), left and right superficial femoral arteries (middle segment), left and right popliteal arteries. The CT value and SD value were measured for each group; the signal-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-noise ratio (CNR) were calculated. The lower extremity CTA was divided into four segments, and the subjective evaluation was independently performed on noise and sharpness using 4 points scales by two radiologists. One-way analysis of variance was utilized to evaluate the differences in subjective scoring and objective parameters among the six groups.Results:For all arteries segments, with the increase of blending ratios for ASIR-V and reconstruction strength of DLIR, the SD values were reduced while SNR and CNR were increased (all P<0.05). Among the six groups, DLIR-H and ASIR-V80% images had lowest SD as well as highest SNR and CNR (all P<0.05). In comparison to ASIR-V20% and ASIR-V50% images, DLIR-H images showed lower SD, higher SNR and CNR values (all P<0.05). There were no statistical differences between ASIR-V80% and DLIR-H images in SD, SNR and CNR values (all P>0.05). Subjective scoring results showed that the DLIR-H images displayed the best noise performance for the entire lower extremity arteries from AA to the foot artery, and the sharpness scores of DLIR-H images were also significantly higher than ASIR-V80% (all P<0.05). Conclusion:DLIR can significantly reduce the image noise and improve the image quality in CTA for abdominal aorta to lower extremity arteries. DLIR-H showed the greatest noise reduction ability and the best effect balancing noise and sharpness, providing highest image quality.
