Objective To retrospectively review the diagnosis and treatment of intraarticular synovial hemangioma of the knee under arthroscope. Methods Six cases of intraarticular synovial hemangioma of the knee were included. The examination of X ray and MRI before surgery indicated intraarticular synovial hemangioma in 5 cases and pigmented villonodular synovitis in 1 case, then arthroscopic diagnosis and excision of the lesions were followed. Results The six cases were definitely diagnosed as intraarticular synovial hemangioma. Under arthroscope, the lesions exhibited as irregular dark blue or purple capillary clumps of different sizes. The postoperative follow-up of 10.7 months in average (range 4-23 months) shows good joint function for all the patients and no signs of recurrence at the last follow-up. Conclusion Intraarticular synovial hemangioma is rare with a high rate of misdiagnosis. Careful physical examination and MRI can help to make the diagnosis. Arthroscopic surgery is a choice of diagnosis and treatment for intraarticular synovial hemangioma of knee.

Objective To summarize the sonographic features of fetal limb deformity. Methods Systematic continuous sequence approach (SCSA) was performed with two-dimensional and three-dimensional ultrasonography(USG) in 28 383 fetuses to observe the fetal limb development, posture abnormality and other accompanied malformations. Compared with the pathological and radiological findings, the characteristics of fetal limb deformity on USG were summarized. Results Among 28 383 fetuses prenatal ultrasound detected 207 cases of fetal malformations (0.7%, 207/28 383) including 29 cases of limb deformities (14%, 29/207). In the 29 cases, there were osteogenesis imperfecta in 2 cases, syndactyly in 1 case, cleft hand deformities in 1 case, uncifom hand in 1 case, clubfoot deformity in 12 cases, cleft foot in 1 case, micromelia in 4 cases, limb body wall complex in 1 case, forearm defect in 2 cases, and radius absence in 4 cases. Chromosome karyotype analysis was conducted in 7/29 cases, of which 6 cases were normal and 1 case was trisomy-13 with syndactyly. In addition, the fetal limb deformities were found at 17-19 weeks of gestation in 4 cases, at 20-24 weeks in 23 cases, and at 25-33 weeks in 2 cases. In summary, 27/29 cases were identiifed at 17-24 weeks of gestation. Conclusions Prenatal ultrasound is the ifrst-choice method for screening of fetal limb deformity. The detection rate of limb deformity could be greatly improved by using SCSA method with the supplement of 3D ultrasound.

Objective To observe the effect of the different bore diameter membranes on technological parameters of Radix Polygoni Multiflori Granula and to optimize the process of membrane filtration.Methods Three different membranes were tested under different parameters of operation to observe the changes in membrane flux and the content of effective components by Radix Polygoni Multiflori Granula.Results The membrane(50 nm)had the great flux,the transfering rate of stilbene glucoside was the highest;The optimum conditions:the operation differential pressure was 0.8-1.2 MPa;The operation temperature was 50-60 ℃;the membrane surface flow rate was 3.0 m/s.When the volume of filtration solution was condensed to 1/10 of former,entering the same volume deionized water into it,and when the effective components transfering rate reached 80%,the filtration was finished.Using the strong acid and strong alkali to wash it in turn,the flux could revive above 90%.Conclusion It can be obtained a good result that adopts the technology of ceramic membranes microfiltration to refine Radix Polygoni Multiflori Granula.This can provide the foundation for the application of ceramic membrane microfiltration in the refinement of water extraction of other Chinese materia medica.

OBJECTIVE: To understand the current situation of clinical drug use and to inspect the rationality of drug use and survey indices. METHODS: Twenty common diseases(1 530 cases ) treated in this hospital in 1995 were selected. Patierits were divided into three groups according to the sources of expenses: free of charge, self - expense, public - expense or into cases of internal medical and surgical departments. Using selected drug use indicators(SDUI) and self - designed indices, clinical drug use were surveyed and analyzed. RESULTS: There were no significant differences between each group jn main indices. It showed that irrational drug use was only different in degree. CONCLUSION: ①The indices adopted are practicable and rational for surveying and studying the rational drug use objectively. ②In any health care system and in any disease, the irrational drug use was serious.

Objective In this study,we aim to evaluate the risk and incidence of traumatic cervical spinal cord injury (CSCI) in patients with traumatic cervical spinal canal stenosis (CSCS) without major fracture or dislocation,and evaluate the feasibility of preventive decompression surgery. Methods This study included eighty?seven patients with traumatic CSCI without major fracture or dislocation treated in our department between 2005 and 2012. Mann?Whitney U test was used for statistical analyses. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to calculate the relative and absolute risks for the incidence of traumatic CSCI without major fracture or dislocation related with CSCS. Results The relative risk for the incidence of traumatic CSCI with CSCS was 145.7 times higher than that for the incidence without CSCS. However ,only 0.000026% of patients with CSCS may be able to avoid developing traumatic CSCI if they underwent decompression surgery before trauma. Conclusions Prophylactic surgical management for CSCS might not significantly affect the incidence of traumatic CSCI.

In the present study,we examined the codon usage bias between pseudorabies virus (PRV) US1 gene and the US1-like genes of 20 reference alphaherpesviruses.Comparative analysis showed noticeable disparities of the synonymous codon usage bias in the 21 alphaherpesviruses,indicated by codon adaptation index,effective number of codons (ENc) and GC3s value.The codon usage pattern of PRV US1 gene was phylogenetically conserved and similar to that of the US1-like genes of the genus Varicellovirus of alphaherpesvirus,with a strong bias towards the codons with C and G at the third codon position.Cluster analysis of codon usage pattern of PRV US1 gene with its reference alphaherpesviruses demonstrated that the codon usage bias of US1-like genes of 21 alphaherpesviruses had a very close relation with their gene functions.ENc-plot revealed that the genetic heterogeneity in PRV US1 gene and the 20 reference alphaherpesviruses was constrained by G+C content,as well as the gene length.In addition,comparison of codon preferences in the US1 gene of PRV with those of E.coli,yeast and human revealed that there were 50 codons showing distinct usage differences between PRV and yeast,49 between PRV and human,but 48 between PRV and E.coli.Although there were slightly fewer differences in codon usages between E.coli and PRV,the difference is unlikely to be statistically significant,and experimental studies are necessary to establish the most suitable expression system for PRV US1.In conclusion,these results may improve our understanding of the evolution,pathogenesis and functional studies of PRV,as well as contributing to the area of herpesvirus research or even studies with other viruses.

The standard treatment for colorectal cancer still have not been unified,especially the treatment for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (T3 or T4 stage) is controversial,and multidisciplinary comprehensive treatment is recommended by most of the scholars.Precise preoperative diagnosis and staging for locally advanced rectal cancer is very important.Currently,transrectal ultrasound (TRUS),multi-slice spiral computed tomography,magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are playing important roles in the preoperative diagnosis and staging,while controversies on the efficacies of different imaging diagnosis on the evaluation of rectal cancer exist between domestic and overseas scholars.From October 2010 to October 2012,the imaging data of 30 patients with locally advanced rectal cancer who were admitted to the Tumor Hospital of Yunnan Province were retrospectively analyzed.The results showed that TRUS,computed tumography and MRI had guidance value in preoperative tumor staging and evaluation of neoadjuvant therapy for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer,which provide a more reliable basis for the selection of appropriate treatment programs.
