Objective To investigate the value of three-dimensional color power angio(3D-CPA)in the prenatal diagnosis of pernicious placenta previa (PPP ) with placenta increta.Methods The ultrasonographic findings of PPP with placenta increta diagnosed in our hospital by 2D-CDFI and 3D-CPA were reviewed and compared with pathologic histology examination.For each of the two imaging methods, sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value and prenatal diagnose accordance rate were summarized. Results For 3D-CPA,sensitivity,specificity and positive predictive value were 91.1%,88.9% and 93.3%, respectively.The results of 3D-CPA were higher than those in 2D-CDFI (sensitivity 76.4%,specificity 66.7%,positive predictive value 81.5% ),and were statistically significant (P <0.05 ).The diagnose accordance rate of 3D-CPA was statistically higher than that of 2D-CDFI (90.4% vs 73.0%;P <0.05). Conclusions 3D-CPA can display abnormal vascular reconstruction between the placenta and uterine wall from various angles,and is more accurate than 2D-CDFI.3D-CPA plays an important role in the prenatal diagnosis of PPP with placenta increta.

Objective To observe the effect of ShenQi Wuweizi Tablet (Tablet composed of pilose asiabell root, astragalus root, and schisandra fruit) on anxiety before college entrance examination.Methods Totally 227 patients were randomized into a treatment group (113 cases, treated with Shenqi Wuweizi Tablet, 3 tablets each time and 3 time a day), and a control group (114 cases, treated with alprazolam, 0.4 mg each time and 3 times a day). The treatment course was 6 weeks for both groups. Before treatment and at the end of the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 6th week of treatment, the clinical effect was assessed with Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Clinical Global Impression (CGI), and Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS). And at the same time, the untoward reactions was also observed.Results At the end of the 1st week of treatment, the HAMA score was significantly decreased in the control group (P

Objective:To develop the attitudes toward gay men and lesbians in Chinese context.Methods:Based on the sex differences in homosexual researches and the three factors of attitude,the initial Scale included two subscales of gay men and lesbians,and selected items from cognition,emotion and behavior;used the initial scale firstly to test 353 college students,then selected items through 4 methods;secondly,investigated 404 college students and 533 community residents with the ultimate scale in order to assess it in reliability and validity,10 days after the first testing session,193 students were re-tested.Results:Developed the attitudes toward lesbians and gay men scale of 20 items;the test-retest coefficients of total-scale was 0.959,the Cronbach's ? coefficient of the total-scale was 0.898,the split-half reliability was 0.912.Factor Analysis indicated there were three components in the scale including moral judgement,emotional reaction,and social communication.Conclusion:The attitudes toward lesbians and gay men scale has a high reliability and a good validity and can be used in researches of the public Attitudes toward homosexual.

Objective To evaluate the treatment of acne vulgaris with acupuncture by different methods of point selection.Methods 51 cases of acne vulgaris were randomly recruited into local point selection group,distal point selection group and combination of local and distal point selection group.10 cases of healthy people were recruited for normal control group.Serum arachidonic acid (AA),free testosterone (FT),and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) levels were observed in all treatment groups.Results After the treatment,serum AA was (20.56±5.28)μg/L,(18.86±5.70) μg/L and (14.62±3.06) μg/L,while SHBG was (333.31±87.96) nmol/L,(332.02±87.82) nmol/L and (273.02±61.74) nmol/L respectively in local point selection group,distal point selection group and combination of local and distal point selection group,both showing no significant difference than the normal control group (P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in FT value between the combination of local and distal point selection group (5.62± 1.98) nmol/L and the normal control group (P＞0.05).The decrease of AA in the combination of local and distal point selection group was between than the local point selection group (P＜0.01).Conclusion Acupuncture can effectively improve the level of inflammatory factors and androgen of the acne vulgaris.Different methods of point selection of acupuncture on the improvement of some indicators were quite different,which laid the foundation for the best compatibility of acupuncture treatment in acne vulgaris.

Objective To investigate the plasma PAF-AH level in type 1 diabetes patients and the association between the PAF-AH gene polymorphism and type 1 diabetes mellitus. Methods Plasma PAF-AH in115 type 1 diabetes patients and 106 controls were determined by PAF-AH assay kit, and PAF-AH gene G275A genotypes were detected by PCR-RLFP. Results The activity of plasma PAF-AH in the patients with type 1 diabetes was significantly lower than that in the controls. Compared with control group, the frequencies of the GA genotype on G275A polymorphism were significantly higher than that in T1DM group. Conclusion The activity of plasma PAF-AH in the patients with type 1 diabetes was significantly lower than that in normal controls. The G275A polymorphism of PAF-AH gene might be related to type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Objective To compare and analyze the different clinical features between male and female patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), by detecting the gender difference to make clinical decisions. Method The clinical features of 95 male RA patients(MRA) were analyzed and compared with those of 248 female RA patients (FRA) by retrospective analysis method. Results The mean onset age of MRA [18-79 (51.40±15.55) years old] was older than that of FRA[18-75(43.54 ±15.46) years old](P=0.0002). The morning stiffness time of MRA [(1.58 ±1.34) h] was shorter than that of FRA [(2.10 ±1.51) h](P = 0.0357). There was statistical difference in the first involved joint between MRA and FRA (P=0.0170), the prevalence of knee,metatarsonphalangeal joint,shoulder and ankle of MRA was higher than those of FRA, ' but conversely the wrist prevalence of FRA was higher than that of MRA.The prevalence of secondary Sj(o)gren syndrome of MRA(13.68%, 13/95) was rather lower than that of FRA(35.08%, 87/248)(P = 0.0007). MRA had lower positive rate of ANA (2.11% ,2/95) and lower value of IgM [(1.42 ±0.75) g/L] than FRA [(10.48% ,26/248), (1.69 ±0.86) g/L] (P < 0.05). There was no statistical difference between MRA and FRA in articular radiographic changes, most extraarticular manifestations and lab results (P >0.05). Conclusions MRA patients have older onset age and milder articular symptom than FRA patients. The disease severity of MRA is similar to that of FRA. Weighted joints are more involved in MRA. FRA is more inclined to have secondary Sj(o)gren syndrome.

Heated humidified high-flow nasal cannula(HHFNC) is a relatively new noinvasive method for respiratory support,initially used in premature infant apnea.In recent years,the development of HHFNC applications is rapid,and HHFNC is gradually used in older infants and children.Compared to other noninvasive oxygen supply devices,HHFNC can be used effectively in clinic because of its high comfort,good tolerance,easy care,and reducing the rate of endotracheal intubation.
