Ptosis is one of the most common diseases in oculoplastics. Surgical treatment is the only way to correcting ptosis. Most of doctors paid special attention to surgical technique, rather than to some related issues of operation. Timing is crucial for ptosis surgery. Both cosmetic and function need to be considered for a success surgery, the evaluation of extraocular muscle disorder is impor- tant for surgical result and postoperative complications.
2. Diagnosis value of DWI, T2 WI and dynamic enhanced MR imaging for early liver abscess
Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2010;30(2):166-169
Objective: The imaging diagnosis of early liver abscess is difficult. This study is to evaluate the diagnostic value of DWI, T2WI and dynamic enhanced MR imaging for early liver abscess. Methods: DWI, T2WI and dynamic enhanced imaging scans were performed in 17 patients with 17 early liver abscesses. The signal intensities and ADC values of necrotic area, non-necrotic area and normal liver were measured and compared. Results: The ADC value of the necrotic areas of liver abscesses ([0.88±0.09] mm2/s) was significantly lower than those of normal liver ([1.31±0.12] mm2/s,P<0.05) and non-necrotic area of liver abscesses ([1.43±0.18] mm2/ s,P<0.05); there was also significant difference between the ADC values of the normal liver and non-neocrotic area (P<0.05). The necrotic areas had a hyperintensity characteristic on DWI, T2WI and a hypointensity characteristic on T1 WI; no enhancement was found on dynamic enhanced imaging. The non-necrotic areas had moderate hyperintensity on DWI, T2 WI and hypointensity on T1 WI; there was obvious enhancement on dynamic enhanced imaging. Conclusion: The early liver abscess is characterized on magnetic resonance imaging. The DWI scan is helpful for diagnosis of early liver abscess.
3. Value of magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography for diagnosis of pancreas divisum
Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2010;29(6):688-690
Objective: To investigate the value of magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography(MRCP) in the diagnosis of pancreas divisum by comparing with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Methods: The MRCP and ERCP images of 8 patients with pancreas divisum were retrospectively analyzed. The diagnostic accuracy and findings by MRCP were compared with those by ERCP. Results: MRCP had a diagnostic accuracy of 87.5%(7/8) based on the result of ERCP. ERCP displayed the dominant dorsal pancreatic ducts in all 8 cases and ventral pancreatic ducts in 6 cases; MRCP also displayed the dominant dorsal pancreatic ducts in all 8 cases, but the ventral pancreatic ducts only in 3 cases. Conclusion: As a non-invasive technique, MRCP has important clinical value in the diagnosis of pancreas divisum.

ObjectiveTo investigate glutathione S-transferase GSTO 1 Glu155△Glu genetic polymorphism and risks of arsenic poisoning caused by coal-burning in Guizhou.Methods GSTO1 Glu155 △Glu gene polymorphism was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-with confronting two-pair primers among one hundred and thirty arsenic poisoning patients and one hundred and thirty healthy controls.The results were verified by DNA sequencing.The association between different genotypes and arsenic poisoning was analyzed by unconditional Logistic regression model.ResultsThe results of Glu/Glu and Glu/△Glu genotype detected by this method were consistent with those of DNA sequencing.The frequencies of GSTO1 Glu/Glu genotype and Glu/△Glu genotype were 94.85%(92/97) and 5.15%(5/97) in the patients,99.15%(117/118) and 0.85%(1/118) in the controls,respectively.The difference was statistically significant(x2 =3.896,P < 0.05).△Glu/△Glu genotype was not found in both patients and controls.After age and sex adjusting,GSTO1 Glu155 △Glu polymorphism was found to be a risk factor of arsenic poisoning [odds ratio (OR) =1.85,95% confidence interval (CI):1.39 - 17.48].ConclusionsThe study finds that GSTO1 Glu 155 △ Glu polymorphism is associated with risk of arsenic poisoning.The relationship between them should be further studied through increasing sample size.

Objective To investigate the relationship among methotrexate(MTX) plasma concentration,dosage,clinical effecicy and toxicity, and to evaluate it′s clinical significance.Methods MTX was measured by a flurorescence polarization immunoassay in plasma samples obtained from acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL) patients treated in different doses of MTX, and these results were analyzed combined with clinical manifestations.Results 1.The average of plasma concentration at 24 hours increased with the increasing doses of MTX. The relapse rate decreased with increased plasma concentration;2.The cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) concentrations prior to the intrathecal MTXinstillation were all below the effective concentration, so the intrathecal MTX instillation was needed;3.No severe toxicity was observed in the study, because the plasma concentration was below the high risk.Conclusion The study of MTX plasma concentration provides us an objective basis for the individualized chemotherapy.

Objective To compare efficacy and side effects of intravenous versus oral indomethacin treatment for symptomatic patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in preterm infants.Methods Fourty-nine preterm infants were reviewed retrospectively who were diagnosed as having symptomatic PDA confirmed by echocardiography.According to the using type and approach that were divided into 2 groups (intravenous group,n=21;oral group,n=28) and their doses and intervals were same.The rates of ductal closure and side effects were compared in 2 groups.Results There were no significantly different between 2 groups in single ductal closure and complicating other diseases. Soon closure of intravenous group was higher significantly than oral group [61.9 %(13/21) vs 28.6 %(8/28),P

Objective:To evaluate the status quo and influencing factors of hyperlipidemia management in patients with contracted family doctor service in the community.Method:The baseline data and blood lipid testing results of 752 hyperlipidemia patients (334 males and 418 females) with contracted family doctor service in Yuetan Community Health Service Center from November?2019 to May 2020 were collected. The hyperlipidemic patients were managed by family doctors based on atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases(ASCVD) riks assessment. The ASCVD risk levels and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) compliance rate of patients with different general data were compared, and the influencing factors of LDL-C control failure were analyzed by logistic regression.Results:The ASCVD risk assessment showed that among 752 patients there were 172 cases of low risk(22.87%), 167 cases of moderate risk(22.21%),352 cases of high risk(46.81%) and 61 cases of extremely high risk(8.11%). A significant difference was detected in sex,rate of smoking,incidence of overweight or obesity among patients with different ASCVD risk levels ( P<0.05).The overall control rate of LDL-C was 48.8% (367/752), that for low, moderate, high and extremely high risk patients were 83.73% (144/172), 53.89% (90/167), 34.38% (121/352) and 19.67%(12/61), respectively. A significant difference was detected in sex(female: 52.87%, 221/418),age(aged over 80: 58.82%, 110/187), rate of smoking (non-smoking:52.40%, 327/624) and medication compliance (good compliance:52.87%,221/418) between LDL-C control and uncontrol groups (χ2=6.323,11.816,19.022,25.274; P<0.05). Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that male gender ( OR=1.800,95% CI:1.325-2.419), smoking ( OR=2.630,95% CI:1.726-4.007) and poor medication compliance ( OR= 2.179, 95% CI: 1.581-3.003) were independent risk factors for uncontrolled LDL-C levels. Conclusion:Patients with hyperlipidemia have a relatively high risk of cardiovascular diseases, and their blood lipids are not well controlled. The management of blood lipid should be enhanced in patients with chronic diseases, particularly for male patients with smoking and poor medication compliance.
