[Objective] To observe the influence of blood-nourishing and wind-expelling therapy on the therapeutic effect of epidermic grafting for vitiligo. [Methods] Sixty-two patients with vitiligo were allocated to group A (n = 32) and group B (n = 30) with simple random method. Group B was treated with epidermic grafting. Group A was treated with oral use of Baibofeng Decoction (mainly composed of Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Caulis Spatholobi, Radix Saposhnikoviae, Fructus Psoraleae, Radix Paeoniae Rubra , Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae, etc.) 2 weeks after epidermic grafting was performed, one dose every other day, and with external application of Fubu tincture (composed of Fructus Psoraleae, Radix Angelicae Dahuricae, Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae and Flos Carthami) bid. After treatment, the short-term and long-term therapeutic effect was observed in the two groups. [Results] The cure rate was 83.6% and the effective rate was 93.1% in group A, and respectively 71.0% and 88.5% in group B, the therapeutic effect of group A being better than that of group B (P

Objective To improve the radiological diagnosis of breast cancer .Methods The authors collected 15 cases of breast carcinoma confirmed by operation and pathology. All these cases were misdiagnosed by mammography.Mammographic manifestations and data of clinic were analyzed retrospectively. Results 4 cases changed like small fibroadenoma, 3 cases showed microcalcification, 3 cases showed localized mammary gland architecture distrotion,2 cases showed multiple small patchy shadows in the hyperplasic mammary gland, 2 case showed small focus of increased density, 1 case no abnormal sign, 4 cases among of them can not be palpated mass .Conclusion The combination between palpation and radiology is valuable for diagnosis of breast carcinoma and decreasing misdiagnosis.

Objective To analyze radiological features of rare tumor of breast.Methods To analyze retrospectively radiological features of 11 cases with rare tumor, all cases were confirmed by operation or pathology. Results Among the 11 cases ,1 case was non Hodgkin lymphoma(NHL). 1 case was malignant pleomorphic adenoma. 1 case was primary squamous cell carcinoma of breast. 1 case was osteosarcoma.2 cases were lobate cystadenosarcoma. 5 cases were hamartomas.Osteosarcoma shows bone tissues in the mass. Malignant pleomorphic adenoma shows more big mass with leaning-edge and abnormal vessel.Lobate cystadenosarcoma is a low-degree malignant tumor with long history, shows big mass, cleaning-edge and big calcification in it, there was a vitellary membracnce around the mass, usually no metastasis to armpit .Hamartoma’s density is highly uneven, the area of high density likes island. Primary squamous cell carcinoma of breast and NHL have no specific X-ray features.Conclusion Rare breast tumors have no specific radiological featare.Qualitative diagnosis needs sythetical analysis.

Objective To observe the efficacy and safety of recombinant tissue type plasminogen activa-tor (rt-PA)for the treatment of the patients with wake-up ischemic stroke (WUS)under the guidance of multimode CT. Methods Eighteen patients with WUS (a thrombolytic group)suitable for intravenous thrombolysis after multimode CT imaging screen at the Department of Neurology,Shiyan Hospital of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine,Hubei Province from October 2012 to October 2014 were enrolled retrospectively. Twenty patients with WUS (a control group)who underwent multimode CT imaging screen were suitable for intravenous thrombolysis,but because of exceeding time window or rejecting thrombolysis and other reasons without having intravenous thrombolysis from February 2012 to February 2014 were enrolled retrospectively. The control group was treated with conventional therapy and the thrombolytic group was treated with rt-PA (0. 9 mg/kg)intravenous thrombolytic therapy. The indicators including fibrinogen (Fib),coagulation function (prothrombin time [PT ]),activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT ), platelet (PLT ),high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP ),National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS )scores,and activities of daily living scores (Barthel index)at before treatment and 24 h,7 and 14 days after treatment were observed respectively. The adverse events and complications were documented and compared with the control group. Results There were no significant differences in Fib,PT,APTT, PLT,hs-CRP,NIHSS score and Barthel index before treatment between the thrombolytic group and the con-trol group (all P>0. 05);at day 7 and 14 after treatment in the thrombolytic group,compared with before treatment,Fib (14 d after treatment),PLT,and hs-CRP were decreased,PT and APTT were prolonged,the NIHSS scores were decreased,and Barthel indexes were increased. There were significant differences (all P<0. 05). At day 14 after treatment,there were significant differences in Fib,PT,APTT,hs-CRP,NIHSS scores,and Barthel indexes (Fib:3. 25 ± 0. 38 g/L vs. 3. 55 ± 0. 28 g/L;PT:15. 7 ± 3. 2 s vs. 12. 9 ± 2. 5 s;APTT:42. 7 ± 3. 5 s vs. 38. 7 ± 2. 6 s;PLT:[189 ± 26]× 109/L vs. [201 ± 23]× 109/L;hs-CRP:5. 7 ± 0. 6 mg/L vs. 11. 3 ± 2. 2 mg/L;NIHSS scores:5. 6 ± 2. 4 vs. 9. 2 ± 4. 5;and Barthel indexes:68 ± 15 vs. 47 ± 5)between the two groups (all P <0. 05). Except 1 patient occurred symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage after thrombolysis,no other serious complications were observed in the thrombolytic group. One patient in the control group had stress gastric ulcer and bleeding,no symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage occurred. Conclusion Multimode CT guidance can be used as a reliable imaging evidence for patients with WUS expanding intravenous thrombolytic time window. Under the multimode CT guidance, using rt-PA for intravenous thrombolytic therapy has a certain efficacy.

Objective To investigate the HOOF genotyping characteristics of 83 Brucella (B.)melitensis strains isolated in Ulanqab of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region from 2012 to 2015.Methods A total of 83 B.melitensis strains were detected by convention identification and AMOS-PCR,then HOOF protocol with eight VNTR locus were used for the genotyping of the strains,and the allelic diversity of each VNTR locus and the discriminatory power of VNTR typing of HOOF were assessed by Hunter-Gaston Discriminatory index.BioNumerics 5.0 was used for phylogenetic analysis and constructing dendrogram.Results All of the isolates were identified as B.melitensis strains by two identification methods.The complete eight VNTR locus had higher polymophism and diversity index was 0.998;and diversity index of six locus (1,2 and 4-7) were ≥0.678,discriminatory power of HOOF was mainly from this six higher diversity index locus.The 83 B.melitensis strains were classified into eight clusters and 76 genotypes,6 shared genotypes included 13 isolates,indicating that these brucellosis cases had epidemiological link,the other 70 strains had distinct genotypes,indicating that these cases had no epidemiological link.Conclusions The epidemic of human brucellosis in Ulanqab was characterized by local and sporadic outbreaks.Cross infection was related with the transfer of the sources of infection.

Background::Clinical opportunistic screening is a cost-effective cancer screening modality. This study aimed to establish an easy-to-use diagnostic model serving as a risk stratification tool for identification of individuals with malignant gastric lesions for opportunistic screening.Methods::We developed a questionnaire-based diagnostic model using a joint dataset including two clinical cohorts from northern and southern China. The cohorts consisted of 17,360 outpatients who had undergone upper gastrointestinal endoscopic examination in endoscopic clinics. The final model was derived based on unconditional logistic regression, and predictors were selected according to the Akaike information criterion. External validation was carried out with 32,614 participants from a community-based randomized controlled trial.Results::This questionnaire-based diagnostic model for malignant gastric lesions had eight predictors, including advanced age, male gender, family history of gastric cancer, low body mass index, unexplained weight loss, consumption of leftover food, consumption of preserved food, and epigastric pain. This model showed high discriminative power in the development set with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.791 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.750–0.831). External validation of the model in the general population generated an AUC of 0.696 (95% CI: 0.570–0.822). This model showed an ideal ability for enriching prevalent malignant gastric lesions when applied to various scenarios.Conclusion::This easy-to-use questionnaire-based model for diagnosis of prevalent malignant gastric lesions may serve as an effective prescreening tool in clinical opportunistic screening for gastric cancer.
