Objective To summarize the clinical features,diagnosis and treatment principles of abdomen postsurgical gastroparesis syndrome(PGS).Methods The clinical data of 28 patients with abdomen postsurgical gastroparesis syndrome,collected from our hospital in the past ten years,were analyzed retrospectively.Results All 28 patients were cured by conservation therapy.The average gastric dynamics response time was 20.2 days(12.0～34.0 days),which included 2 cases recovered within 1-2 weeks,17 cases recovered within 2-3 weeks,7 cases recovered within 3-4 weeks,2 cases recovered over 4 weeks.Conclusion PGS is a functional reaction rather than mechanical obstruction disease.The diagnosis mainly depends on the symptoms and sighs combined with gastrointestinal angiography or endoscopy.Most of the patients can be cured by conservative treatment.

Objective To evaluate the value of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of pediatric ovarian torsion (OT).Methods Ultrasonography was performed in 38 OT,and 52 non-OT children.Bilateral ovarian area was measured.The larger area was defined as S1,whereas,the smaller area was defined as S2.S1/S2 ratio was calculated.Follicles around ovaries,ovarian blood flow,and pelvic effusion were also observed during the ultrasonographic scanning.ROC curve was employed to evaluate the clinical value of ultrasonography in pediatric OT diagnosis.Results ①S1/S2 ratio,incidence of follicles around ovaries and of no ovarian blood flow were all higher in OT compared to non-OT children (P =0.000).While pelvic effusion showed no significant difference between the two groups (P =0.004).②Using S1/S2 ratio to diagnose OT,the area under the ROC curve was 0.925 (0.865-0.986),the best cutoff point was 1.6,sensitivity was 97％ and specificity was 88％.Patients were divided into two groups based on the cutoff point of 1.6,the area under the ROC curve of S1/S2 was 0.924(0.847-0.969),of follicles around ovarian was 0.896(0.781-0.931),and of no ovarian blood flow was 0.911 (0.831-0.961),indicating S1/S2 held the highest diagnostic value.Conclusions Ultrasonography is an accurate method in the early diagnosis of pediatric ovarian torsion,with S1/S2 ratio holding the highest diagnostic value in this application.

Objective:To compare and analyze the ultrasonic images between intestinal involvement in Kawasaki disease (IIKD) and abdominal type allergic purpura (ATAP), so as to improve the understanding of IIKD.Methods:From July 2014 to January 2020, the ultrasonographic images of 21 children with IIKD and 24 children with ATAP in Tianjin Children′s Hospital were collected and analyzed.Results:Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences between IIKD group and ATAP group in non stratified thickening of intestinal wall, decreased echo of serosa and adjacent mesentery (irregular shape), thickening of peripheral fat tissue and abnormal shape of adjacent lymph nodes (all P<0.05); Multivariate analysis showed that decreased echo of serosa and adjacent mesentery (irregular shape) were independent influencing factors of IIKD. The area under ROC curve was 0.914(95% CI=0.819-1.000, P<0.001). The sensitivity and specificity of IIKD were 95.2% and 87.5%, respectively. Conclusions:The ultrasonographic images of intestinal involvement in IIKD and ATAP have certain specificity. Decreased echo of serosa and adjacent mesentery (irregular shape) can effectively distinguish IIKD and ATAP.

OBJECTIVETo apply the functionally generated path (FGP) technique for modeling the occlusal surface of a computer-aided-design (CAD) posterior full crown to obtain anatomic morphology.

METHODSA patient with defected left mandibular first molar was employed. After tooth preparation and impression making, the gypsum working cast and die were scanned with a digitized mechanical scanner and the surface data was acquired. The interocclusal records at intercuspal position (ICP) and FGP were made in the patient's mouth. These records were placed on the working cast and their surfaces were scanned. In the process of the computer-aided designing full crown, the cusps and fossae of the occlusal surfaces were accurately modified according to the digitized information of ICP and FGP interocclusal records.

RESULTSA full crown was designed and the occlusal morphology of the restoration was adapted to dynamic occlusion as well as static occlusion.

CONCLUSIONSThe FGP technique was practical for the CAD of full crown and could avoid potential occlusal interferences with opposing teeth during function.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of dexmedetomidine combined with ulinastatin on stress reaction indexes,ex-travascular lung water value(EVLW)and pulmonary vascular permeability indexes(PVPI)and other parameters in one-lung venti-lation(OLV)lobectomy patients. METHODS:A total of 80 patients underwent OLV lobectomy selected from the Affiliated Hospi-tal of Southwest Medical University during Nov. 2015-Nov. 2016 were divided into control group (group N),ulinastatin pretreat-ment group(group U),dexmedetomidine continuous pump group(group D),ulinastatin pretreatment+dexmedetomidine continu-ous pump group(group U+D),with 20 cases in each group. Thirty min before anesthesia induction,all patients were given atro-pine sulfate 0.5 mg intramuscularly and received catheterization of right internal jugular vein and ipsilateral femoral artery under lo-cal anesthesia. Based on that,group N was given 0.9％ Sodium chloride injection 100 mL intravenously;group U was given sodi-um chloride mixed solution 100 mL containing Ulinastatin for injection 200000 U intravenously;group D was given continuous in-travenous pump of Dexmedetomidine hydrochloride injection 2 μg/mL mixed with sodium chloride mixed solution at 1 μg/(kg·h), and after induction intravenous pump at 0.5 μg/(kg·h)until the end of surgery;group U+D was given Sodium chloride mixed so-lution containing 200000 U ulinastatin 50 mL and 4 μg/mL dexmedetomidine sodium chloride mixed solution 50 mL intravenously (same dose as above during induction period and maintenance period). The levels of blood glucose,partial pressure of oxy-gen [p(O2)],adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH),norepi-nephrine (NE),heart rate (HR),cardiac output (CO),sys-temic vascular resistance(SVR),EVLW and PVPI were com-pared among 4 groups 30 min before anesthesia induction(T1),2 h after the beginning of surgery(T2),immediately after extuba-tion(T3)and 12 h after surgery(T4). Liquid intake and output volume were recorded during T2-T4. The occurrence of ADR among 4 groups was observed. RESULTS:There was no statistical significance in each index among 4 groups at T1 (P>0.05). During T2-T4,the levels of blood glucose,ACTH,NE,SVR,EVLW and PVPI in group N were significantly higher than other 3 groups, and group U and D were significantly higher than group U+D,with statistical significance(P<0.05);there was no statistical sig-nificance between U and D(P>0.05). The levels of p(O2)and CO in groups U+D were significantly higher than other 3 groups, with statistical significance (P<0.05);there was no statistical significance among other 3 groups (P>0.05). HR of group N and U were significantly higher than other 2 groups,with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance be-tween group N and U,between group D and U+D(P>0.05). There was no statistical significance in liquid intake or output vol-ume among 4 groups (P>0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 4 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Dexmedetomidine combined with ulinastatin can significantly relieve stress reaction,and reduce the levels of part blood flow and respiratory dynamics indexes as EV-LW,PVPI in patients with OLV lobectomy so as to play lung protective effect.

Objective:To investigate and compare the value of cross-sectional area measurement and width measurement by high frequency ultrasound in the diagnosis of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) in infants.Methods:The abdominal ultrasound images of 20 infants who were diagnosed as CAH in Tianjin Children′s Hospital and clinical diagnosised from November 2013 to August 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. The maximum cross-sectional area of adrenal gland and the maximum width of single limb were measured respectively to assess the size of adrenal gland. Fifty normal full-term infants were selected as control group at the same period. The differences of maximum cross-sectional area of adrenal gland, the maximum width of single limb between CAH group and control group were compared. ROC curve was plotted to compare the diagnostic values of cross-sectional area measurement and width measurement.Results:①There was significant difference in maximum cross-sectional area of adrenal gland between infants with CAH and normal infants[(129.47±37.39)mm 2 vs (54.42±20.85)mm 2; t=10.004, P<0.001]. There was significant difference in maximum width of adrenal gland between infants with CAH and normal infants [(4.56±1.20)mm vs (3.25±0.66)mm; t=5.445, P<0.001]. ②The area under ROC curve(AUC) of cross-sectional area measurement was 0.966, the best cutoff value was 87.5 mm 2, the sensitivity was 95.0%, and the specificity was 92.5%. AUC of width measurement was 0.817, the best cutoff value was 5.25 mm, the sensitivity was 90.0%, and the specificity was 62.5%. The difference of AUC between cross-sectional area measurement and width measurement was 0.149, which was statistically significant ( Z=2.309, P=0.021). Conclusions:Both cross-sectional area measurement and width measurement by high frequency ultrasound have diagnostic values for CAH in infants, with the former more valuable than the latter.
