The clinical data of 76 children with EFE admitted from June, 1998 to December, 2009 was retrospectively analyzed. Tachypnea、 cough and cyanosis were common and all presented with heart failure. Electrocardiogram revealed sinus tachycardia 、left ventricular hyperthrophy and ST-T alterations. On chest radiograph 54 cases (54/76) had a cardiothoracic ratio > 0. 65 and 33 with pneumonia.Echocardiopraphy revealed lowered left ventricular systolic function in all cases and decreased left ventricular diastolic function in 21 (21/76). 63 cases (63/76) presented with thickened and enhanced left ventricular endocardium and 11 (11/76) with thickened interventricular septals. All were treated with digitalis. 58children were improved and discharged, 10 gave up therapy and 8 died during hospitalization. 41 out of 58 improved cases were followed for 1 - 4 years, with 2. 6 years on average. Among them 28 were clinically cured, 7 deteriorated and 6 died of heart failure. Echocardiography is of diagnostic value for ERE. Systolic and diastolic function of the heart can be used to predict the outcome. Pulmonary infection is a major risk factor associated with deterioration. Long-term treatment is imperative to improve the prognosis.

Hemodynamics is a discipline that studies the effects of blood flow,blood flow volume and other factors on the arterial wall.Intracranial aneurysm is the main cause of death due to non-traumatic subarachnoid hemonhage,which has brought a heavy burden on society.Therefore,it is very important to make an intensive study of the pathogenesis of aneurysm.With the development of medical imaging technology and fluid mechanics software in recent years,it becomes possible to make the precise and scientific studies of the hemodynamics of intracranial aneurysms.In this paper,the hemodynamic factors inducing the formation of intracranial aneurysm that are proposed by medical experts at home and abroad are reviewed,and the hemodynamic mechanism is discussed.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship betweenparacardial adipose tissue (PAT) volume, body mass index (BMI) and severe coronary artery stenosis in young people by quantitative measurement of 256-slice spiral CT.
Methods: A total of 150 patients younger than 45 years and received coronary angiography (CAG) in our hospital were divided into 2 groups:Lesion group, the patients with severe main coronary branch stenosis and Control group, patients with normal coronary artery. n=75 in each group. The height, body weight and BMI were recorded in all patients;imaging data was uploaded to the workstation to calculate the volumes ofepicardiumadipose tissue (EAT) volume,pericardial outsideadipose tissue volume and PAT volume, the correlation among 3 parameters were analyzed respectively.
Results:Compared with Control group, Lesion group had increased BMI (28.169±2.203) kg/m2 vs (24.960±3.041) kg/m2 and PAT volume (178.676±3.041) ml vs (99.0616±3.041) ml, all P<0.05. Compared with Control group,no matter male or female, Lesion group had larger PAT volume, P<0.01.EAT volume was related to pericardial outside adipose tissue volume (r=0.837, P<0.001) and PAT volume (r=0.971, P<0.001);pericardial outside adipose tissue volume was related to PAT volume (r=0.944, P<0.001).
Conclusion:PAT volume and BMI were obviously correlated to severe coronary artery stenosis in young people.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of modified acute aortic dissection risk score in the early diagnosis of acute aortic dissection (AAD).Methods:The general, clinical, and imaging data of 162 patients who complained of chest and back pain who received treatment between January 2019 and January 2021 in the Department of Emergency, The Second Hospital of Jiaxing, China were collected for this study. The included patients were divided into control (non-AAD, n = 120) and observation (AAD, n = 42) groups according to whether they were diagnosed with AAD. The indexes with statistical significance between the two groups were analyzed using multivariate logistic regression analysis. A score table was established according to the size of OR value. The modified AAD risk score was predicted using the receiver operating curve. Results:Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that male sex, family history, sudden severe chest and back pain, bilateral blood pressure asymmetry, hypertension, abnormal ultrasound, and D-dimer level were independent risk factors for the diagnosis of AAD (statistical values = 7.84, 6.96, 7.04, 11.38, 7.12, 8.15, 15.07, 9.11, all P < 0.05). Taking the total score of 5 as the prediction standard, the specificity and sensitivity in the prediction of the occurrence of AAD were 84.94% and 95.43%, respectively. The area under the receiver operating curve regarding the modified AAD risk score was 0.909. Conclusion:The modified AAD risk score can be used to conveniently and quickly predict the occurrence of AAD and has a high predictive value. This study is highly innovative and scientific.

Objective To investigate the effect of comprehensive intervention led by nursing staffers on the drug compliance in patients with hepatitis B virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after receiving transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) treatment.Methods By using random sampling method,a total of 96 patients with hepatitis B virus-associated HCC,who had been treated with TACE and had taken nucleotide analogue drug for one month in the interventional department of a certain grade Ⅲ tumor hospital,were enrolled in this study.Under the premise of informed consent,comprehensive intervention,which was led by nursing staffers and was participated by both doctors and nurses,was conducted.Results After comprehensive intervention,the average score of drug compliance was (93.670±6.046) points,while the pre-intervention average score of drug compliance was (82.040±10.024) points,the difference between the two was statistically significant (P<0.05).The ratio of patients who showed good drug compliance changed from pre-intervention 62.4% to post-prevention 97.8%(P<0.05).The post-prevention of patients,whose hepatitis B virus deoxyribonucleic acid (HBVDNA) level was within the normal range,was 45.16%,which was highcr than the pre-intervention ratio of 15.05%,the difference between the two was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion The comprehensive intervention led by nursing staffers can effectively improve the drug compliance in patients with hepatitis B virus-associated HCC after receiving TACE,and can reliably control serum HBVDNA level as well.

Objective This study was to understand the status of pollution on drinking water, by volatile organic compounds(VOCs),among rural residents living in the basin of Huaihe River. Relationship between the morbidity,morbidity of cancers and VOCs were also explored. Methods 28 villages were chosen from Xuyi,Jinhu,Chuzhou along the Huaihe River,with water samples collected from ditch pond water,shallow wells,deep wells in November-December 2010. VOCs indicators were evaluated according to the Standard Quality GB 5749-2006 for Drinking Water. Results Methylene chloride,chloroform,benzene and carbon tetrachloride were all detected in 76 water samples. The rates of chloroform,benzene,carbon tetrachloride which exceeding the quality standards were 3.95%,21.05% and 22.37%,but no significant differences were found among these three water resources in chloroform,benzene or carbon tetrachloride. Results from the correlation analysis showed that benzene had positive correlation with tumor deaths(r=0.24,P<0.05). Results from the risk assessment on health showed that some chloroform,benzene,carbon tetrachloride products which were related to the risks of cancers were exceeding the acceptable ranges of risk,with the rates as 28.95%,22.37% and 64.47% but with no significant differences among the three water resources(P>0.05). Conclusion Drinking waters for rural residents along the Huaihe River were polluted while VOCs might have related to tumor incidence with potential impact and risk to the health of local residents.
