PurposeTo investigate the correlation between iodine concentration and clinical severity of acute pancreatitis (AP) through the quantitative evaluation with dual-energy spectral computed tomography (DESCT), so as to find out an effective imaging technology in the evaluation of clinical severity of AP.Materials and Methods Sixty patients with AP confirmed clinically (AP group) and 30 patients with normal pancreas (control group) were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients underwent enhanced CT scan in the spectral imaging mode. Iodine concentration and normalized iodine concentration (NIC) were respectively measured during arterial phase and portal phase in the material-decomposition images by using a spectral imaging viewer (GSI Viewer). Results Iodine concentration and NIC were significantly higher in the control group than in the AP group (P<0.05,P<0.001). In the AP group, according to Ranson grading, 24 patients were in the mild grade, 20 patients were moderate, and 16 patients were severe. Iodine concentration and NIC decreased along with the increase of their Ranson grade. There were significant difference in iodine concentration and NIC among the three subgroups (iodine concentration on arterial phase:F=8.776,P<0.01; iodine concentration on portal phase:F=4.019,P<0.05; NIC on arterial phase:F=12.700,P<0.001; NIC on portal phase:F=8.732,P<0.01). Iodine concentration and NIC on arterial and portal phases in the mild grade group were both significantly higher than those in the moderate grade group (P<0.05); however, iodine concentration on arterial and portal phases, and NIC on arterial phase in the severe grade group were significantly lower than those in the moderate grade group (P<0.05).Conclusion DESCT can analyze hemodynamic changes in AP quantitatively, which is of great value in evaluating changes in AP of each grade.

Speaking lesson is an effective way and teaching skill to prepare lessons for the teaching of anatomy. Taking the speaking lesson design of lecture teaching of the neck as an example, this article shows the teaching of topographic anatomy for "5+3" integrated clinical medical students. Adhering to the teaching concept of "student-centered", we have launched the theoretical teaching of "problem-centered discussion" and the experimental teaching of "operator responsibility system" in groups, with the "thanksgiving" humanistic education running through the whole process of theoretical and experimental courses. The teaching is a good way to cultivate the students' gratitude consciousness and humanistic quality, self-learning ability, critical thinking ability, communication and expression ability, hands-on operation ability and teamwork spirit, which has laid a solid foundation for training medical professionals in the new era.

Objective:To compare the short-term effect of the arthroscopic reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) by femoral tunnel positioning through the tendon incision (TI) technique and anteromedial (AM) technique.Methods:Between December 2015 and March 2017, 176 patients with ACL injuries underwent arthroscopic ACL reconstruction at the First Affiliated Hospital of USTC were analyzed. According to the method of localization of femoral tunnel, they were divided into two groups: TI group (localization of femoral tunnel by TI for reconstruction of ACL) and AM group (localization of femoral tunnel by AM for reconstruction of ACL). There were 87 patients in the TI group (63 males and 24 females) with an age of 32.8±9.4 years (range, 19-51 years) and a body mass index (BMI) of 24.8±6.3 kg/m 2 (range, 18.1-31.7 kg/m 2), including 9 obese patients (BMI>28 kg/m 2). There were 89 patients in the AM group (59 males and 30 females) with an age of 36.7±13.0 years (range, 17-56 years) and a BMI of 25.7±5.8 kg/m 2 (range, 18.9-31.6 kg/m 2), including 11 obese patients. To evaluate whether the drill was in contact with the articular surface of the medial condyle of the femur, whether the anterior angle of the medial meniscus was damaged, the sagittal and coronal angles of the femoral tunnel and the total length of the femoral tunnel. The anterior drawer test, Lachmann test, pivot shift test, knee flexion angle (KFA), Lysholm score, International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score and the incidence of postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. At the same time, the time of taking out tendon, operation time, hospital stay and recovery time were compared between two groups of obese people. Results:In the TI group, the guide pin could reach all areas of the medial wall of the lateral femoral condyle from the inferior cartilage edge to the top of the intercondylar fossa, the drill bit had no contact with the medial femoral condyle (MFC), and the anterior angle of the medial meniscus was not damaged. In AM Group, 3 cases of MFC and 1 case of anterior horn of medial meniscus were injured in order to get the best position of femoral tunnel. The angle of femoral tunnel in sagittal plane (50.2°±3.2°) and coronal plane (46.1°±5.8°) in experimental group was notably larger than that in control group (45.6°±5.4°, 38.3°±4.7°), the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the length of femoral tunnel between the two groups (38.2±3.2 mm and 37.7±2.5 mm, P>0.05). All patients were followed up for an average of 8.3±2.1 (range, 3-12) months. The positive rates of anterior drawer test, Lachmann test and pivot shift test were not significantly different between the two groups at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after operation ( P>0.05). The KFA, Lysholm and IKDC scores in both groups were significantly increased after operation ( P<0.05), but there was no significant difference of above indexes between the two groups ( P>0.05). The overall complication rate in AM group (14.6%, 13/89) was significantly higher than that in TI group (6.9%, 6/87), the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Additionally, the tendon harvesting (15.0±0.2 min vs. 26.0±0.2 min, P<0.05) and operation time (2.0±0.3 h vs. 3.0±0.4 h, P<0.05) were significantly shortened among obese patients in experimental group compared with those in control group. Conclusion:The TI technique demonstrates comparable effectiveness to the AM technique in ACL reconstruction through femoral tunnel positioning, with the added advantage of safer femoral tunnel localization. This approach minimizes the risk of iatrogenic injuries to the articular cartilage of the medial condyle of the femur and the anterior horn of the medial meniscus. Furthermore, the TI technique reduces tendon removal time, particularly beneficial for obese patients.
