Objective To study the efficacy of sodium profile combined with ultrafiltration profile in preventing intradialytic hypotension and changes of the sodium level in blood plasma after hemodialysis. Methods 10 patients with maintenance hemodialysis were chosen randomly. Every patient underwent with conventional hemodialysis treatment and sodium profile combined with ultrafiltration profile treatment 5 times alternatively. And then the blood pressure changes. HR changes, ultrafiltration volume changes and clinical symptoms were observed during treatments. And also after HD, the sodium level in blood plasma was observed. Results The blood pressure decrease of sodium profile combined with ultrafiltration profile evidently reduced the conventional HD treatments( P＜0.01 ).Ultrafiltration volume of the former evidently increased compared with that of the latter(P＜0.01 ). The sodium level in blood plasma after HD was not significantly changed compared with before HD(P＞0.05). Conclnsion Sodium profile combined with ultrafiltration profile diminishes the episodes of hypotension evidently and increases the ability to endure sufferirgs to patients and does not increase the sodium level in blood plasma. So it is an effective medical treatment.

Objective To study COX-2 expression in bladder transitional cell carcinoma in order to explore the relationship between the immunohistochemical staining and biological behavior of bladder cancer. Methods The expression of COX-2,Ki-67,and VEGF was examined in 50 cases of bladder transitional cell carcinoma and 10 normal bladder mucosa by means of immunohistochemical technique.Results The expression of COX-2 in BTCCs was higher than that in normal bladder mucosa.The positive rate of COX-2 was 80% in BTCCs while it was not detected in normal bladder mucosa.COX-2 was highly positively related to the grade,stage and prognosis of tumors.The expression of COX-2 in poorly differentiated,invasive or re- curring BTCCs was higher than that in well differentiated superficial or nonrecurring ones.But there was not significant difference between the solitary tumour and multiple ones.There were positive correlation both be- tween COX-2 and Ki-67 and between COX-2 and VEGF.Conclusion The high expression of COX-2 may benefit increase in bladder cancer cell proliferative activity.VEGF expression in COX-2 positive tumor was significantly higher than that in COX-2 negative tumor.

AIM:To investigate the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer ( RNFL ) thickness and the macular ganglion cell complex ( GCC ) thickness in primary open angle glaucoma ( POAG ) eyes and to compare them with normal control eyes, and to evaluate the diagnostic ability of peripapillary RNFL thickness and macular GCC thickness in POAG.
●METHODS:This was a cross-sectional study consisting of 56 POAG patients. The control group consisted of 60 normal subjects (60 eyes) were matched in terms of age, sex, diopter and axial length. The peripapillary RNFL thickness and the macular GCC thickness of POAG eyes and normal control eyes were measured and compared by RTVue-100 optical coherence tomography ( OCT ) . To assess the diagnostic utility of peripapillary RNFL thickness and macular GCC thickness in POAG, receiver operating characteristic curves ( ROC ) and areas under the ROC ( AUC) were used.
●RESULTS:The POAG eyes had a thinner peripapillary RNFL and macular GCC than the control eyes at all the regions ( P < 0. 001 ). Multivariable linear regression analysis showed that the peripapillary RNFL thickness and macular GCC thickness was significantly thinner in association with the POAG diagnosis. ROC and AUC analysis showed that the best AUC parameters were C/D (AUC=0. 936; 95% Cl=0. 903, 0. 964) and superior RNFL thickness (AUC=0. 910;95% Cl=0. 889, 9. 455). The AUC of nasal RNFL thickness, inferior RNFL thickness, temporal RNFL thickness, superior GCC thickness, inferior GCC thickness, and average GCC thickness were all above 0. 8 with a good diagnostic value.
●CONCLUSION:The peripapillary RNFL thickness and macular GCC thickness in POAG eyes are thinner than that of normal control eyes. Decreased peripapillary RNFL thickness and macular GCC thickness may be associated with POAG. The peripapillary RNFL thickness and macular GCC thickness have a good diagnostic value.

30 ?g/min were found to have retinopathy, but those with slightly increased UAE (15-30 ?g/min) showed a lower incidence of retinopathy similar to that of non-albuminuric diabetics. It indicates that UAE with 30 ?g/min may signal an imperative stage in preventing micro-vascular complications in diabetes.

In the present study, we observed the effects of cholinergic enhancement by pyridostigmine (PD), a cholinesterases inhibitor, on GH release in both normal (n = 13) and GH deficient children and adolescents (n = 8). Responses of GH to insulin hypoglycemia were also observed. In the normal subjects, PD-induced serum GH peak levels were significantly higher than that induced by insulin (P

Objective To ensure the quality of disinfection and sterilization of the fiberbronchoscope in the sterilesupply center through the implementation of whole life cycle management.Methods Using the historical comparative method,the fiberbronchoscopes managed by the departments were enrolled into a control group from February 2013 to March 2014,and the ones undergoing life-cycle management in the sterile supply center were involved in an observation group from April 2014 to May 2015.The two groups were divided according to the management subject and mode,and compared from the aspects of treatment flow,process quality control and record tracing validity.All the data were input with Excel sheet,andanalyzed statistically with SPSS 17.0.Results The observation group and the control group had the numbers of positive results in internal cavities,positive results in external surface,damaged or irrationally-placed package,invalid data tracing and non-standardized storage being(0,1.11±0.15),(0,1.09±0.20),(1.07±0.13,2.75±0.22),(0.57±0.03,1.53±0.31) and (0.13±0.07,0.95±0.21) respectively,and the differences between the two groups were significant (P＜0.05).The turnover of the fiberbronchoscope was enhanced significantly in the observation group when compared with that in the control group.Conclusion Life cycle management contributes to strengthening quality control of the treatment of polluted fiberbronchoscope,and decreases the incidences for hospital infection.
