Medical Journal of Chinese People's Liberation Army 2001;0(11):-
Objective To eraluate the methods and results of endoscopic mucosal resections for colonic laterally spreading tumors with early malignant degeneration. Methods The pit pattern was studied with magnitying colonoscopy and mucosal staining technique for colonic laterally spreading tumors (LST) undergoing early earcinatous degeneration. They were removed with endoscopic mucosal resection techniques. A follow-up study was made. Results Eight patients suffering from early carcinoma on top of colonic laterally spreading tumors were followed-up. ① 75% of the lesions were situated in the rectum, sigmoid colon and decending colon. ② 75% of the lesions were larger than 30mm in diameter. ③ 75% of the lesions belonged to Ⅳpit pattern. ④ 62.5% of the lesions were Villous adenomas and 75% of the onalignant change involved the mucosa only. ⑤ All the lesions were completely removed by EMR, ⑥ No local residual lesion, recurrence or metastasis was discovered in all the patients after a mean follow-up period of 20.7 months. Conclusions Most of the early carcinomas originated from colonic LST involved the mucosa only. Endoscopic mucosal resection may be a curative method for the early cancer arising from colonic LST.

Indocyanine green (ICG) is a fluorescent dye which has various advantages including high absorption,low toxicity,not involved in biotransformation in vivo and rapid excretion in near-infrared range.Due to the high penetrating ability in biological tissues and low rate of being affected by other factors,near-infrared optical imaging has become a major method of functional imaging and diagnosis.It shows great prospects in optical detection.As the only clinical using near-infrared optical imaging contrast enhancer approved by FDA,ICG has been widely used in biomedical imaging,photodynamic therapy,pathology detection and many other medical related areas.This article focuses on the recent development of ICG application,especially concentrates on the clinical uses.
6.MRI features of urethral sphincter changes in female with stress urinary incontinence
Chinese Journal of Radiology 2016;50(4):265-268
Objective To investigate the MRI features of urethral sphincter in female with stress urinary incontinence(SUI) by the study of the indexes of the thickness of middle urethral sphincter, the function urethral length and bladder neck funnel . Methods Forty patients of female patients diagnosed as SUI by clinical were retrospectively as SUI group, and 40 asymptomatic female volunteers were recruited as reference group. All of the subjects were tested by pelvic MRI scanning both in static status and in the condition of Valsalva. The thickness of middle urinary sphincter was measured in the horizontal axis plane. In the midsagittal plane, the function urethral length was measured from the internal orifice to perineal fascia. The bladder neck funnel whether exist was observed from the midsagittal plane. For the comparison of the urinary sphincter thickness and urethral length of the two groups, independent sample t test was adopted. For urethral length in static status and under the condition of Valsalva, paired t test was done. For comparison of positive rate of the bladder neck funnel, Chi?squared test has been done. Results The value of the middle urinary sphincter thickness in the groups of SUI and reference were (2.23±0.68) mm and (2.69± 0.75) mm, respectively. Thus the differences of the two groups had statistical significance (t=-2.839, P<0.01 ). In the static status, the urethral length in SUI and reference group were (2.72±0.51) cm and (2.94± 0.34) cm respectively, wheras in Valsalva condition, the value were (2.33 ± 0.49) cm and (2.43 ± 0.43) cm respectively. The differences of the two groups had statistical significance in static status (t=-2.322, P=0.023), wheras there had no statistical significance in the two groups in Valsalva condition (t=-1.049,P=0.297). For SUI and reference group, both in static status and Valsalva condition, the difference of function urethral length had statistical significance (P< 0.01). The positive rate of bladder neck funnel for SUI was 72.5% (29/40), and for reference was 22.5% (9/40), the difference of the two groups had statistical significance(χ2=20.050, P<0.01). Conclusion For female SUI patients, urinary sphincter muscle is much thinner, function urethral length is much shorter and has higher positive rate of bladder neck funnel.

Relations between doctors and patients are the most basic and important human relations in medical practice.Some reports indicate that non-technical medical factors result in most cases of physician-patient conflicts.In this paper we analyzed non-technical medical factors from the fields of society,ethics and mentality,and concluded main reasons for physician-patient conflicts are the lack of "being discreet when alone",the absence of "patients-oriented service concept",the ignorance of responsibility of "life-saving",and the missing of humanity care.
9.Survey and intervention into rural doctors' knowledge on the spread of HIV via blood collection and supply
Chinese Journal of Hospital Administration 1996;0(10):-
Objective To find out about rural doctors' knowledge on the basic facts about AIDS and the spread of HIV via illegal blood collection and supply and explore viable intervention methods in AIDS prevention and treatment in rural areas. Methods All the rural doctors in a certain township where the epidemic of HTV being spread via blood collection and supply was pretty serious were selected for the survey and data were collected by combining qualitative and quantitative studies. Results The survey of 33 doctors was effective( 100% ) ; above 95% had a correct understanding of the spread of AIDS through sex and blood as well as its contagiousness; 50% did not possess the knowledge that HIV could be spread to the baby by the mother but could not be spread through saliva, sweat, mosquito bites or sharing of bathtubs or toilets; above 80% knew about the objective of the blood organizers in their villages, the peak time of blood selling by the villagers, and the risks of diseases being spread via blood, and were opposed to blood selling; 27.3% once in a while used disposable syringes, and 15.2% discarded or sold used disposable syringes. Conclusion There are severe lurking perils of iatrogenic cross infection in rural areas. Rural doctors are in dire need of formal training in AIDS prevention and treatment knowledge and could be expected to become the key force in AIDS prevention and treatment in rural areas.
