Objective To investigate the value in the diagnosis of tumor of the stomach by hypotonic water filling method com-bined with CT multi planar reconstruction (MPR).Methods CT image data of 21 5 cases with gastric tumor confirmed by operation and pathology in our hospital were analysed retrospectively.Conventional CT enhanced scan was obtained in patients with the stom-ach hypotonic water filling condition,and MPR CT characteristics of lesions were observed.Results In the 21 5 cases of gastric be-nign or malignant lesions,MPR showed 5 pathological types in 210 cases.In the conventional CT examination,the tumor diagnosis rate had obvious improvement in different gastric parts and types of the stomach tumors through CT MPR.Conclusion There is high detection rate in the diagnosis of gastric tumors using hypotonic water filling method with MPR,which can accurately display invasion and metastasis,and reduce the misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis in gastric tumor.

Objective To investigate the value of panel fluorescence in situ hybridization (panel FISH)for detection of genomic aberrations in chronic lymphocytic leukemia(CLL). Methods Five types of fluorescein-labelled DNA probes including five sequence specific probes D13S25 for 13q14. 3, RB1, p53, ATM (11 q23)and centromeric probe for chromosome (CSP12) were used to perform fluorescence in situ hybridization assays in 17 patients with CLL. Its results were compared with that obtain by conventional cytogenetic (CC)examination. Results In 17 patients with CLL, CC examination showed that only one case (1/17) was found to have chromosomal abnormality that was simultaneous trisomies 3,8 and 18, whereas panel FISH assay showed that 10 cases (10/17) were found to have genomic aberrations including deletion of D13S25 in 4 cases,deletion of ATM in 2 cases,deletion of p53 in 1 case,deletion of D13S25 combined RB1 in 1 case and 1 case with a variety of abnormalities. Conclusions Panel FISH is a useful method for detection of genomic aberration in CLL If it is combined with CC,it can obviously enhance the detection rate of chromosomal abnormalities in CLL.

OBJECTIVETo observe the protective effect of combined administration of blood-activating drug and sedative drug on myocardial injury of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) rats.

METHODThe acute myocardial infarction (AMI) model was established by occluding the left descending coronary artery of Wistar rats. These rats were further divided into four groups (n = 15 per group): the sham-operated group, the AMI model group, the blood-activating drug group and the combined administration group.

RESULTCompared with the sham-operated group, the AMI model group showed significant decrease in ejection fraction (EF) and fractional shortening (FS) (P < 0.001) and notable increase in the left ventricular end-diastolic internal diameter (LVIDd) and left ventricular end-systolic internal diameter (LVIDs) (P < 0.01), with the infarct area of left ventricular front wall up to about 70%-90%. Besides, tissue was severely replaced by collagen deposition and fibrosis, the sarcomeres disorganized and mitochondrial abnormalized. Compared with the AMI model group, the blood-activating drug group and the combined administration group showed significant increase in the values of EF and FS (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01) and obvious reduction in LVIDd and LVIDs (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), with the infarction area of left ventricular front wall up to about 40%-60%. The collagen deposition and myocardium fibrosis, the disorganized sarcomeres and mitochondrial abnormalities relieved significantly. And compared with blood-activating drug group, the combined administration group demonstrated further increase in the values of EF and FS and further decrease in LVIDd and LVIDs (P < 0.05), the collagen deposition and myocardium fibrosis, the disorganized sarcomeres and mitochondrial abnormalities relieved even more in Huoxue plus Anshen prescription group.

CONCLUSIONThe combined administration of blood-activating drug and sedative drug can further improve cardiac structure and function after myocardial ischemia infarction and have an obvious synergistic effect which may be related to sedative drug's effect of resisting lipid peroxide, stabling myocardial cell membrane and mitochondrial membrane and relieving cardiac cell injury.

As the global prevalence of obesity and the elderly population continues to increase,the in-cidence of sarcopenic obesity is also on the rise and becoming a global public health concern.Sarcopenic obesity not only increases the incidence of cancer,but is also associated with poor clinical outcomes in various cancers,such as surgical complications,increased risk of death,and possibly even an impact on chemotherapy as well.Therefore,sarcopenic obesity is emerging as an important indicator of prognosis in cancer patients.However,there are limited relevant studies on the association between sarcopenic obesity and cancer in China.This article reviews the definition and diagnosis of sarcopenic obesity,the clinical correlation between sar-copenic obesity and cancer,and the potential mechanisms,with a view to providing a reference for future clini-cal practice in China.

Objective:To translate the Nurse Delirium Care Competency Scale (NDCCS) into Chinese and test the validity and reliability of Chinese version of NDCCS among ICU nurses.Methods:According to Brislin translation model, the Chinese version of NDCCS was developed by forward translation, back translation, cross-cultural adaptation and pre-survey. From October to December of 2023, 338 ICU nurses from Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine were selected by cross-sectional survey to test the reliability and validity of Chinese version of NDCCS.Results:A total of 329 valid questionnaires were collected. There were 50 males and 279 females, aged 20-53 years old. The Chinese version of NDCCS included 6 dimensions and 27 items. The scale-level content validity value was 0.985, and the item-level content validity value was 0.800-1.000. Exploratory factor analysis showed a six-factor structure, the cumulative variance contribution rate was 75.700%, the Cronbach′s α coefficients of the scale amount table were 0.952, and the Cronbach′s α coefficients of the dimensions were 0.811- 0.936,and the retest reliability was 0.932.Conclusions:The Chinese version of the NDCCS has good reliability and validity, and it is suitable for assessing the delirium care competence of ICU nurses in China.
