Objective To evaluate the value of color Doppler flow imaging(CDFI) in the diagonosis of placental site trophoblastic tumor(PSTT). Methods After being examined by transvaginal CDFI, four of six patients underwent curettage and two of them had hysterectomy and attached by chemical treatment. All the patients were verified to have a PSTT by pathology. Results The image of PSTT in CDFI included different size at different site, low resistence index (RI) of vessel around the lesion, and absence of vessel in the lesion. Conclusions The characteristic image in CDFI is helpful to the diagnosis of PSTT.

Objective: To evaluate the value of intraductal ultrasonography (IDUS) in diagnosis of pancreatic diseases. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the imaging data of 63 patients with pancreatic diseases who underwent IDUS from February 2005 to February 2010. A 20 MHz over-the-guidewire intraductal US catheter probe was used during endoscopic retrograde cholangio- pancreatography(ERCP) for further examination of the pancreas. We also compared the results of CT, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) and abdominal ultrasonography in diagnosis of pancreatic diseases, so as to further evaluate the value of IDUS in the clinical diagnosis of pancreatic diseases. Results: The accuracies of IDUS in diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis (23 cases), pancreatic cancer (10 cases), intraductal papillary mucinous tumors (IPMT, 25 cases), and pancreatic adenoma (4 cases) were 93. 7% (59/63), 100.0% (63/63), 90.5% (57/63), and 96.8% (61/63), and the Kappa values were 0.854, 1.00, 0.898, and 0.848, respectively. The diagnostic accuracies and Kappa test values of IDUS were better than those of the other four methods. IDUS correctly diagnosed the pancreatic cystadenocarcinoma in one patient before operation. Conclusion: IDUS has a high diagnostic value for pancreatic diseases.

Objective To survey the incidence, distribution, rehabilitation and participation in society of the intellectual disability in Hainan. Methods To analyze the data from the Second China National Sample Survey on Disability. Results Among 41214 people, 14075 live in city, 27139 in countryside. The incidence of intellectual disability was 4.3‰. There were significant difference among counties, villages and cities. The distribution of age were 17‰ in 0～6 years old, 6.3‰ in 7～13 years old, 2.3‰ in >14 years old. The ratio of mild to serious disability was 2.3∶1 in 0～6 y, and 1∶1.5 in >7 y. 6.6% sufferers had accepted medical treatment, 1.2% ones had accepted rehabilitation, 1.8% ones had accepted other social support, 82.4% ones had never be assisted. Conclusion The intellectual disability of 0～6 years children in Hainan is seriously. The rehabilitation and social support system should be improved.
