Objective To discuss the clinical manifestation of top of the basilar artery syndrome (TOBS) and its features of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/cerebral digital subtraction angiography (DSA). Method The clinical data of 30 cases with TOBS admitted during past four years were analyzed. Results The clinical manifestation of TOBS comprised the sudden vertigo and unconsciousness with the ophthalmoplegia and the abnormality of the pupils,as well as the paralysis,partial blindness or cortical blindness and ataxia and memory impairment. MRI showed the local infarction in thalami, cerebellum, midbrain, lobus occipitals , pons, temporal inner surface and splenium of corpus callosum. The features of DSA are occlusion and stenosis in basilar artery and vertebral artery. Conclusions The diagnose of TOBS depends mainly on the clinical manifestation and MRI. The DSA application in TOBS can offer the possible location of vascular lesion, and instruct treatment and prevention for TOBS.

Objective To study the effect of rehabilitation in stroke patients with dysphagia. Methods 31 cases with dysphagia were randomly divided into rehabilitation group (17 cases) and control group (14 cases). Two groups were given same basic therapy on the whole, while the early rehabilitation was performed on the patients in rehabilitation group three times a day for 3 weeks. We compared assessment score of dysphagia by VFSS (videofluoroscopic swallowing study), and observed serum potassium, sodium, albumin levels and the incidence of inhalation-pneumonia in two groups before and after treatment. Results VFSS score (7.2?2.1) of rehabilitation group was markedly higher than before treatment (4.0?1.9) and control group (4.7?2.1)(all P0.05).Conclusions Rehabilitation has a remarkable effect on stroke patients with dysphagia.

Objective To investigate the influence of three kinds of different Ca~(2+) concentration of dialysate on serum calcium,calcium-phosphorus product,serum PTH and CRP in maintenance hemodialysis patients.Methods 45 patients of maintenance hemodialysis with ages ≥18 years were selected.They were divided randomly three groups,and be given three different kinds of Ca~(2+) concentration of dialysate to carry out hemodialysis with 3 months.Then the patients' variation of blood pressure and whether there were low calcium spasm or ostealgia were abserved during hemodialysis whole range.In addition,changes of their serum calcium、phosphorus、iPTH and CRP at pretherapy and three months after reatment were also detected.Results After three months of hemodialysis,serum iPTH in patients with low Ca~(2+) concentration dialysate increased obviously,and the serum CRP decreased significantly(P0.05),and serum CRP increase notably(P

Objective To evaluate the complications after trans-vaginal mesh-augmented pelvic floor reconstruction in treatment of pelvic organ prolapse (POP).MethodsFrom February 2007 to October 2009,vaginal mesh procedures were performed on 91 women with POP stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ in Pekiug University Third Hospital.The operative complications were studied.Results Ninety patients underwent successful surgery among 91 patients.Follow-up rate was 94％ (85/90) at a median follow-up of 28.4 ( 15 -44) months.One patient underwent intraoperative organ injuries,and 10 patients had postoperation mesh-related complications.The rate of mesh-related complications was 2％ ( 2/85 ),2％ ( 2/85 ),4％ ( 3/85 ),4％ ( 3/85 ) on 6,6 - 12,12 -24 and more than 24 months following up,respectively.Seven patients underwent conservative treatment and the symptoms were improved.Three patients underwent the second surgery,and the symptoms were cured or relieved.Conclusion The incidence of mesh-related complications was low,and interventions were effective in vaginal mesh procedure.

Objective To evaluate the effects of silicone pessary treatment on relieving the symptoms and improving the life quality of the pelvic organ prolapse patients.Methods From November 2005 to March 2009,33 pelvic organ prolapse (POP-Q stage Ⅲ～Ⅳ) patients received silicone pessary coneervative treatment were followed up and required to complete the Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory-20 (PFDI-20) before and after initiating pessary treatment.Results 31 of 33(93.94%) patients finished the follow-up completely.23 of 31(74.19%) patients continually used the pessary.The follow up time was 3 to 17 (10.04±2.57) months.27 patients completed the PFDI-20 questionnaires.Before silicone pessary treatment, PFDI20 total score,POPDI6 (Pelvic organ prolapse distress inventory),CARDI8 (colorectal anal distress inventory 8) and UDI6 (urinary distress inventory 6) scores were (54.16±36.12),(27.78±17.30),(0.61±1.01) and (25.77± 24.10),respectively.After the treatment of pessary,the scores decreased to (20.20±25.98), (4.48±5.88), (0.45±0.84) and (15.28± 21.53),respectively.Except for CARDI8,the PFDI scores decreased significantly after the pessary treatment (P＜0.05).Conclusion Silicone pessary is a viable noninvasive treatment for pelvic organ prolapse.It could relieve the symptoms and improve the life quality of protrusion and voiding dysfunction patients.

ObjectiveTo evaluate correlation factors of cervical lymph nodes metastasis in thoracic esophageal carcinoma.MethodsLocal-regional metastasis of lymph node for 126 cases with esophageal squamous cell cancer after surgery from 2004 to 2009 were reviewed.Risk factors of cervical lymph nodes metastasis were examined by multiple Logistic regression analysis.ResultsIn 126 cases,supraclavicular lymph node metastasis rate was 43.7％ (55/126).By logistic regression,none of the primary site,T stage,N stage,histological grade,lymph node metastasis rate,lymph node metastasis degree and number of lymph nodes metastatic field was not the high risk of cervical lymph nodes metastasis.In addition,multivariate analysis found that lymph node metastasis in mediastinum region 1 was high risk factor for lymph node metastasis of region 1 ( x2 =12.14,9.27,P =0.000,0.002),lymph node metastasis in region Ⅲ and region 2 were high risk factors for lymph node metastasis of region Ⅱa ( x2 =14.56,8.27,8.02,3.93,P =0.000,0.004,0.005,0.047 ).ConclusionMediastinal para-recurrent nerve lymph node metastasis is a significant predictor for cervical lymph nodes metastasis.

Objective To investigate the factors influencing therapy decision of surgery or pessary in patients with severe pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Methods Totally 419 cases ofⅢtoⅣdegree POP patients were studied retrospectively. Patients were divided into surgery and pessary groups according to their own choice. Clinical characters were compared such as age, body mass index (BMI), age of onset and disease duration, POP stage, complications. Results 67.5%(283/419) patients were in the surgical group and 32.5%(136/419) patients in the pessary group. Patients in surgical group had higher BMI [(25.1 ± 3.5) versus (23.8±2.6) kg/m2], elder age of onset [(62±12) versus (57±11) years old], longer disease duration [(5± 8) versus (11±11) years] and higher POP staging of middle compartment and less cardiac disease [20.1%(57/283) versus 30.9% (42/136)] than those in pessary group, all had significant difference (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis on the above factors showed a statistically significant difference between two groups, BMI, disease duration and POP staging of middle compartment were independent factors (OR=1.141, 0.932, 1.389;all P<0.01). Conclusions Patients with higher BMI, higher POP staging of middle compartment and less cardiac disease tended to choose surgery. Patients with younger age of onset and longer disease duration tended to choose pessary. Factors as age, POP staging of anterior and posterior compartment, history of POP surgery, complicated with hypertension and diabetes, showed no influence on treatment choice.

Objectives:To study the therapeutic roles of enteral nutrition support in the stroke patients with aphagia. Methods:1000 ml of Nutrison(made in NUTRICIA) was used daily with naso gastric tube feeding soon after the admission in 54 patients receiving routine treatment and other 53 cases without being feed nutrition treated routinely as control.These two groups were further divided into two subgroups based on exist of unconsciousness.Subgroup A refers the unconsciousness patients unable to have dinner,while in subgroup B patients with swallow dysfunction were consciousness.The descending degree of neuro function deficiency scores(DDNFDS) following three weeks,morbidity of aspirating pneumonia and relating nutritional parameters in two groups were recorded. Results:DDNFDS following three weeks,morbidity of aspirating pnemonia and stress induced ulcer,and mortality,and the nutritional status were better in Nutrison applied group. Conclusions:The early enteral nutritional support is beneficial to the stroke patients unable to take dinner in aspects of the improvement of nutrition status and the decrease of morbidity and mortality

Objective To explore the clinical value of MRI in diagnosing and treating cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical manifestations of 54 patients diagnosed with CSP between January 2009 to January 2013 in Peking University Third Hospital.Based on the patients' MRI image and other clinical datas,we did transvaginal operation on patients with CSP1,and transvaginal combined with abdominal operations on patients with CSP2.The intraoperative blood loss,operation time,postoperative hospital stay,and the length of time required for of serum hCG dropping to normal of the patients were analyzed.Results The average age of the 54 patients was (34±5) years and the average duration of gestation was (56± 16) days,all patients' vital sign were stable,the hCG level was 23-142 962 U/L before treatment.Twelve patients were diagnosed with CSP1 by MRI,and 5 of them had focus of 1-2 cm in diameter,the 5 patients' serum hCG level was 436-1 159 U/L and 23-32 days after drug administration,their hCG level returned to normal; the other 7 patients had focus of 2.0-4.4 cm in diameter,and their hCG level was 2 218-63 446 U/L,lesion resection was done on the 7 patients by hysteroscope or under B-uhrasound monitor.Forty-two patients were diagnosed with CSP2,and their focus were 1.0-7.1 cm in diameter,and serum hCG level were 23-142 962 U/L.We did bilateral uterine artery occlusion by laparoscope or laparotomy during operation for 22 patients or bilateral uterine artery embolization (UAE) before operation for 20 patients,then we did lesion resections.The blood loss during operation of CSP1 or CSP 2 was 50.1,267.2 ml; operation time was 30,128 minutes; postoperative hospital stay was 4.6,6.7 days;their serum hCG returned to normal 13-30 days after the surgery.All the 54 patients' uterus were preserved,and the patients undergoing operations were all cured without the second operation.Conclusion MRI is an effective method to conduct clinical treatment in CSP.

Objective To evaluate clinical outcome and complications of mesh-augmented vaginal reconstructive surgery in treatment of pelvic organ prolapse. Methods From Feb 2007 to Jan 2009, meshaugmented vaginal reconstructive surgery were performed on 66 women with pelvic organ prolapse stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ. Pre and postoperative symptoms, pelvic organ prolapse quantitation (POP-Q) stage and pelvic floor distress inventory-short form 20 (PFDI-20) measurements were studied to assess anatomic and quality-of-life outcome. Operative complications were also analyzed. Results Totally 65 patients underwent successful surgeries. The rate of follow-up was 97% (63/65) with a median follow-up of 17. 2 months. Subjective cure rate and objective cure rate were both 97% (61/63) at 6 and 12 months after surgeries, 51 women completed PFDI-20 measurements and scores were 102 ± 50 before surgery, 16 ± 21 at 6 months and 15 ± 20 at 12 months. It reached statistical difference when scores were compared before and after surgeries ( P ＜0. 05). Among 66 patients, 2 patients underwent organ injuries, 2 had recurrent prolapse, 4 had meshrelated complications and 1 had severe de novo stress urinary incontinence. Six patients underwent second surgery. Conclusions Mesh-augmented vaginal reconstructive surgery in treatment of pelvic organ prolapsed brought satisfied clinical outcome. The incidence of mesh-related complications was low and secondary operative interventions were effective.
