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 Treatment and histopathological observation of demodex canis in beagle dogs .Methods Using the method of direct smear for microscopic examination of demodex canis.Histopathological observation on the skin of the parasitic parts after routine paraffin section and HE staining .Results (1) Clinical observation: The red spots and hair removal was appeared on limbs , eyes, lower abdomen and other parts of the skin of canine patients .The skin of the limbs becomes thicker and wrinkles .(2) Blood routine examination:Basically normal.(3) Microscope observation:The results showed that a large number of worms and eggs of small demodex canis could be found .(4) Histopathological observation:Hair follicles showed a large number of demodex mites and eggs.The sebaceous glands and sweat glands have normal morphology and no mites was found .A large number of eosinophils and neutrophil infiltration were seen around the hair follicles.It was also found that the formation of multifocal granuloma:the granuloma was oval shaped .(5) Treatment programme:The combination of medication and the strengthening of environmental control has been shown to be effective . Conclusions Granuloma caused by demodex canis can be divided into immune granuloma .It may not be possible to destroy the sebaceous glands after infection with small demodex canis.Whether the sebaceous gland is infected with the demodex canis may be associated with the worm species or course of disease .

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of volume therapy guided by stroke volume variabil-ity ( SVV) in the patients undergoing surgery for severe traumatic brain injury. Methods Thirty patients of both sexes with severe traumatic brain injury, aged 18-64 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅲ, who were admitted to the hospital within 24 h after injury, with Glasgow Coma Scale ( GCS) score≤8, were divided into control group ( C group, n=15) and SVV group ( n=15) using a ran-dom number table method. In group C, conventional fluid administration was performed to maintain mean arterial pressure at 65-110 mmHg, central venous pressure at 5-12 cmH2 O and urine volume>1 ml·kg-1 ·h-1 . Fluid was given according to SVV, maintaining SVV≤13% and mean arterial pressure at 65-110 mmHg in group SVV. Immediately after skin incision ( T0 ) , immediately after opening cerebral dura mater ( T1 ) , at 1 h after opening cerebral dura mater ( T2 ) , immediately after suturing cerebral dura mater ( T3 ) and at the end of operation ( T4 ) , blood samples were collected from the radial artery and inter-nal jugular venous bulb for blood gas analysis, the jugular venous oxygen partial pressure, jugular venous bulb oxygen saturation, blood lactate, arterial oxygen partial pressure, arterial oxygen saturation and Hbwere recorded, and the cerebral artery and arteriovenous blood O2 content difference and cerebral O2 extrac-tion rate were calculated. Blood samples were collected from the internal jugular venous bulb at T0-2 , T4 and 24 h after operation ( T5 ) for determination of S100β protein concentrations by enzyme-linked immunosor-bent assay. The intraoperative volume of fluid intake and output and consumption of vasoactive drugs were recorded. GCS scores were recorded immediately after admission to the operating room, and at 1, 3, 7 and 14 days after operation. The development of postoperative length of hospitalization and complications ( pul-monary infection and brain edema) was recorded. Glasgow Outcome Scale Score was used to assess the early postoperative quality of life. Results Compared with group C, the urine volume was significantly in-creased, the consumption of vasoactive drugs was reduced, jugular venous bulb oxygen saturation was in-creased at T2,3 , the cerebral O2 extraction rate was decreased at T2-4 , the serum S100β protein concentra-tion was decreased at T2 , and the GCS score was increased at day 3 after operation ( P<0. 05) , and no sig-nificant change was found in blood lactate, postoperative Glasgow Outcome Scale score or length of hospital-ization at each time point in group SVV ( P>0. 05) . Conclusion SVV-guided volume therapy can improve cerebral oxygen metabolism, ensure adequate tissue perfusion and reduce craniocerebral injury in the pa-tients undergoing surgery for severe traumatic brain injury.
