Purpose　To evaluate the clinical safety of ionic contrast media made in china and compare with nonionic contrast media being imported. Methods　Among contrast-enhanced CT 1096 cases, 76% meglumine diatrizoate were administed in 864 cases and ultravist in 232 cases , comparative studies on adverse drug reactions(ADRs) and image quality were performed. Results　In 76% meglumine diatrizoate group , the prevalence of overall and mild -middle ADRs was higher than in the ultravist group , the prevalence of severe and potentially life-threatening ADRs was approximate in the ultravist group , the image quality was well than in the ultravist group.Preventive inoculation alleviated ADRs at all levels. Conclusion　Ionic contrast media made in china was safe and effective in patients without hyperthyroidism after preventive inoculation.

Objective To investigate the action mechanism of microRNA‐152(miRNA‐152) in the cisplatin(DDP) resistance process in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) .Methods The miRNA‐152 level in NSCLC cell line A549 and its cisplatin‐resistant cell line A549/DDP was detected by the real time quantitative PCR(qRT‐PCR) .miRNA‐152 mimic was transfected for increasing the intracellular miRNA‐152 level in A549/DDP .The MTT assay ,inverted miroscope technique and flow cytometry were adopted to observe the effect of up‐regulating miRNA‐152 on cell proliferation inhibition and apoptosis ,meanwhile ,the level changes of intra‐cellular Bcl‐2 and NF‐κB were also observed by adopting qRT‐PCR and Western blot .Results The low expression of miRNA‐152 and the high expression of Bcl‐2 and NF‐κB were found in A549/DDP cells .Up‐regulation of miRNA‐152 enhanced the inhibitory effect of DDP in A549/DDP cells .Furthermore ,after up‐regulating miRNA‐152 ,the inhibiting rate and apoptosis rate of A549/DDP cells caused by DDP were significantly higher than those in the cells without up‐regulating miRNA‐152 ,the difference was statisti‐cally significant(P<0 .05) .In addition ,miRNA‐152 mimic transfection significantly decreased the expression of Bcl‐2 and NF‐κB in A549/DDP cells .Conclusion Low expression of miRNA‐152 may induce the resistance of NSCLC to DDP ,miRNA‐152 could medi‐ate the sensitivity of NSCLC cells to DDP via regulating Bcl‐2 and NF‐κB levels .

Objective To evaluate the clinical features, diagnosis, and outcome of the treatment of cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis, and the relationship between CMV retinitis and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Methods A total of 95 eyes of 56 patients with cytomegalovirus retinitis and AIDS were studied. The fundus feature, visual acuity and CD4 + T lymphocyte counts were analyzed and the follow up periods ranged from 2 weeks to 18 months. Results Before the definitive diagnosis of CMV retinitis, the courses of AIDS were 4 to 26 months in all patients. In the initial examination, the granular form of CMV retinal lesion was noted in 55 eyes (57%) in which retinal lesion of 46 eyes was peripheral. The fulminant form of CMV retinitis of 25 eyes (26%) was found in the posterior pole and consisted of densely opaque retinal lesions with blotchy hemorrhage and vasculitis. The overlap between these two presentations was noted in 15 eyes. Papillitis was observed in 7 eyes of CMV retinitis in this series of patients. The visual acuity ranged from finger counting to 0.5. The patients with extensive CMV retinitis or CMV retinitis in the posterior pole got poorer vision. The CD4 + T lymphocyte counts of 30 patients was 0 30 (mean, 15?9/?l), and the survival time ranged from 2 weeks to 18 months (mean, 6.4?3.3 months). The vision was improved and CD4 + T lymphocyte counts was significantly higher in the group treated with ganciclovir, and progression of CMV retinitis occured and the vision decreased in the non treated group. Conclusion CMV retinitis is the most common intraocular complication in patients with AIDS. Diagnosis of CMV retinitis is based on the characteristic of necrotizing retinitis which was typically associated with retinal hemorrhage and vasculitis. Ganciclovir is effective for the treatment of CMV retinitis.

Objective To investigate the effects of caffeine citrate and aminophylline in treatment of primary apnea of premature infants and its related complications. Methods A total of 152 preterm infants who were diagnosed primary apnea within 10 days after birth were randomly divided into caffeine citrate group(n=77) and aminophylline group(n =75). The changes in the time of the apnea disappeared after treating,needing oxygen,non-invasive and invasive mechanical ventilation,and the incidence of bronchopul-monary dysplasia ( BPD ) , necrotizing enterocolitis, retinopathy of prematurity, patent ductus arteriosus (PDA),intercranial hemorrhage(ICH)were compared between the two groups. Results The time of the apnea disappeared after treating[(47. 4 ± 5. 3) h],needing oxygen[(20. 5 ± 7. 6) d],non-invasive mechani-cal ventilation[(8. 7 ± 4. 2) d] and invasive mechanical ventilation[(1. 0 ± 1. 3) d] in the caffeine citrate group were significantly lower than those in the aminophylline group [ ( 54. 8 ± 6. 2 ) h, ( 24. 4 ± 8. 5 ) d, (10.4±5.3)d,(10.4±5.3)d,respectively](P<0.05).TheincidenceofBPD[16.9%(13/77)],PDA [13. 0%(10/77)] and ICH[16. 9%(13/77)] in the caffeine citrate group were significantly lower than those in the aminophylline group[33.3%(25/75),26.7%(20/75),22.7%(17/75),respectively](P <0. 05),but there were no differences between the two group about the incidence of necrotizing enterocolitis [caffeine group 7. 8%(6/77),aminophylline group 9. 3%(7/75)] and retinopathy of prematurity[caffeine group 6. 5%(5/77),aminophylline group 9. 3%(7/75)](P>0. 05). Conclusion The caffeine citrate has a better efficacy in the treating primary apnea of preterm infants than aminophylline. It can also decrease the incidence of BPD,PDA and ICH in premature infants.

Objective:To assess type C behavior in patients with oral lichen planus (OLP) in order to provide basis for clinical prevention,treatment and psychological intervention of OLP.Methods:Type C behavior scale was used on 85 OLP patients and 85 control patients,who were in accordance with the inclusion criteria,in order to investigate their type C behavior.The scale included 9 items:anxiety,depression,anger,anger toward inside (anger-in),anger toward outside (anger-out),reasoning,domination,optimism,and social support.Scores of the 9 items between OLP patients and control group were calculated under the instruction of the scale and were statistically analyzed,and OLP group was further stratified statistically by sex,reticulate-erosive-ulcerative (REU) pathological type and course of diseases,and the scores of each group were analyzed and compared.Results:Among the 85 OLP patients,there were more females,more non-erosive lesion type,and the most common site for OLP was the buccal mucosa.The scores of the type-C behavior questionnaire for anxiety,depression,anger and optimism were respectively 43.01 ± 7.47,44.02 ± 7.61,21.56 ± 5.26,22.15 ± 4.00 among the OLP patients and were 37.94 ±8.70,39.58 ±7.35,18.12 ±5.39,24.05 ±3.23 among control group,with significant differences (P ＜ 0.05 for all) between the two groups.The female OLP patients had higher anxiety,depression,anger scores (43.21 ± 6.97,44.29 ± 7.54,21.64 ± 5.09) and lower reasoning,domination,optimism scores (39.12 ±5.66,16.29 ±3.95,22.05 ±4.12) with significant differences (P ＜0.05 for all) compared with those of the female controls.The scores between male patients and male controls showed no significant difference.The patients with erosive lesions had higher anger score (22.94 ± 5.26) than that of the patients without erosive lesions (20.60 ± 5.03),with a significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).With the development of the disease,the tendency of anxiety and depression of the patients were more obvious,while optimism scores remained declining.The patients suffering more than 3 years of OLP had higher anger-toward-outside scores (17.36 ± 3.35) than the patients suffering less than 3 years of OLP (15.19±3.99),with a significant difference (P ＜0.05).Conclusion:OLP patients showed an obvious type C behavior characteristic,especially in anxiety,depression,anger and low optimism.This research provides the C behavior characteristic of OLP for further psychological consultation or intervention during OLP treatment.

Objective To discuss the spiral CT features of lymph node metastasis in advanced gastric cancer, and to investigate the correlation between spiral CT features and pathologic results. Methods Spiral CT scan and triphasic enhancement spiral CT scan were performed in 59 patients with advanced gastric cancer before operation. Results ①The pathologic metastatic rate of lymph node in gastric cancer was high when the lymph nodes were nubby-mixed, prominently enhanced, unsymmetrical enhanced and ≥9 mm in diameter on spiral CT (P<0.05). ②The detection rate of lymph node metastasis with spiral CT was high when carcinoma tissues were poorly differentiated, Borrmann Ⅲ+Ⅳ, T3-4 staging and TNM Ⅲ+Ⅳ staging. Conclusion The spiral CT features of lymph node (distributing type, size, enhanced degree, enhanced mode and staging) can reflect the pathologic characteristics of lymph node metastasis in gastric carcinoma. Pathologic characteristic of gastric tumor determines the detection rate of lymph node metastasis on spiral CT. The accuracy of CT to diagnose lymph nodes metastasis will be improved by integrating the spiral CT features of both gastric tumor and lymph node.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between recurrence of cryptogenic ischemic cerebrovascular disease (CICVD) and patent foramen ovale (PFO),as well as to access the clinical significance of PFO in ischemic cerebrovascular disease.Methods Consecutive patients with CICVD aged 15 to 70 years who were hospitalized in Department of Neurology,Xuanwu Hospital Capital Medical University from January 2008 to March 2011 were prospectively investigated.Identified by transesophageal echocardiography,patients were divided into two groups with respect to outcome:PFO group and non-PFO group.The recurrence of cerebral ischemic events was compared between the two groups after neurological follow-up.Results A total of 91 patients were recruited,including 57 patients with PFO and 34 patients without PFO.The follow-up period of two groups was 695 (506,1142) d.The recurrence rate at 15 months in patients with PFO (24.5％ (12/49)) was higher than those without PFO (6.9％ (2/29),x2 =4.391,P =0.036).Cum hazard curve indicated that recurrence risk of cerebral ischemic events in patients with CICVD in PFO group was higher than that of patients in non-PFO group during the follow-up period (P =0.044).Cox model used for multivariate survival analysis indicated that PFO was a risk factor for cerebral ischemic event recurrence among patients with CICVD (OR =4.159,95％ CI 1.178-14.689,P =0.027).Conclusions PFO is associated with increased recurrence risk of cerebral ischemia in CICVD patients.In addition,PFO may be a significant factor for ischemic cerebrovascular disease.
