156 stroke patients were assessed retrospectively by Self Depression Scale. The incidence of depression after stroke,and the relationship of depression between age, course, location of impairment, the character of the stroke,and ADL ability were included in the study. The conclusion showed that depression was related significantly to severe impairment in ADL.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of multi-slice spiral CT for non-angle caused nutcracker syndrome(NCS). Methods A total of 177 cases of clinical suspected nutcracker syndrome patients recevied multi-slice spiral CT examination,,inclu-ding 33 patients with negative results,144 cases patients with positive results.The analysis was performed by measuring the angle between superior mesenteric artery(SMA)and the abdominal aorta(AA),and the ratio of the diameter of the narrowest and expan-sion in the left renal vein.Results Within 33 cases of nutcracker-negative patients,the angle of SMA and AA was (46.06 ± 24.46)°;the ratio was (2.11±0.76).144 cases was diagnosed as nutcracker-positive patients,the angle of SMA and AA was (23. 10±9.63)°;the ratio was (3.83±1.24).There was positive correlation between angle and ratio in NCS (P<0.0001).Among9 ca-ses of nutcracker syndrome caused by non-angle factors three were oppressed by the uncinate process pancreas,two cases were caused by the malformations of the left renal vein,one case was posterior nutcracker syndrome,one case was oppressed by portal veinOne case of pressured renal vein due to tortuosity renal vein coiled renal artery.One case of the left renal vein compression lumen narrowing,causing significant downward pressure on the left renal vein.Conclusion Spiral CT angiography reconstruction can clear-ly show the cause and the location of the left renal vein compression,which may provide helpful information in diagnosing nutcracker syndrome caused by non-angle factors.

Objective To investigate the changes of C-reactive protein(CRP)and D-dimer in the patients with hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis(HLAP)and biliogenic acute pancreatitis(BAP).Methods One hundred fifty-five inpatients with acute pancreati-tis in our hospital from Jan.2012 to Dec.2014 were divided into the HLAP group and BAP group by etiology.Also the patients were divided into mild acute pancreatitis(MAP)subgroup and moderately severe acute pancreatitis(MSAP)subgroup by disease se-verity.Blood routine,liver and kidney function,glucose(Glu),calcium,blood lipids,CRP and D-dimer were measured.Results Platelet,Glu and blood lipid indicators in the HLAP group were significantly higher than those in the BAP group.But alanine amin-otransferase(ALT),r-glutamyl transferase(GGT),alkaline phosphatase(ALP),total bilirubin(TBIL),direct bilirubin(DBIL),calci-um(Ca)and creatinine(Cr)in the HLAP group were significantly lower than those in the BAP group(P <0.05).CRP in the HLAP group was significantly higher than that in the BAP group with statistical difference(P <0.01).CRP had statistical difference be-tween the HLAP group and BAP group in the MAP and MSAP subgroups (P <0.01).CRP and D-dimer had statistical difference between in the MAP and MSAP subgroups of the HLAP group(P <0.05).Increased CRP and D-dimer in the HLAP group were the risk factors for MSAP occurrence(OR =1.121,3.716,P =0.025,0.001 ).In the BAP group,only increased D-dimer was the risk factor for MSAP occurrence(OR=2.717,P =0.002).Conclusion CRP and D-dimer in HLAP and BAP are increased with dis-ease severity aggravation,moreover CRP increase is more obvious in HLAP patients.

Objective To investigate the coagulation and anticoagulation changes in liver cirrhosis(LC)patients with and without portal vein thrombosis(PVT).Methods Patients with LC during 2006 to 2007 in our hospital were reviewed and twenty cases of LC with PVT were included in the study.Forty cases of LC without PVT were chosen as controls.PVT was confirmed by dynamic abdominal computed tomography.Using an analyzer and following manufacturer instructions,we determined PT,APTT,Fib,Antithrombin Ⅲ and Protein S.SPSS software was used for statistic analysis.Results In PVT group,the average level of PS and AT-Ⅲ were(18.68?3.14)mg/L and(94.65?7.96)%,significantly lower than(20.44?3.04)mg/L and(100.26?9.27)% in controls.No difference was found between patients with or without PVT in PT、APTT、Fib.PT and APTT were progressively prolonged from A to B and then to C.Fib and AT-Ⅲ were progressively decreased from A to B and then to C.Low levels of PS was found in LC patients.Conclusion The changes of coagulation and anticoagulation in patients with LC dearly exist.The average level of PS and AT-Ⅲ in PVT group is significantly lower than controls.PS and AT-Ⅲ may play a pathogenetic role in the development of PVT.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of Chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases(COPD)(≥65 years old,acute episode)with active pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods62 of COPD(≥65 years old,acute episode)with active pulmonary tuberculosis from 2002 to 2007 in hospital were reviewed and analyzed.ResultsThe attack rate of active pulmonary tuberculosis is 7.3% in COPD(≥65 years old,acute episode).By Clinical analysis showed clinical manifestation and chest X-ray or CT were not typical,but positive morbility of acid-fast bacilli sputum smear and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid was higher.ConclusionThe result suggests that COPD(≥65 years old,acute episode)patients are high-risk group of active pulmonary tuberculosis and need to be diagnosed early as soon as possible.

Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy is the inhalation of 100％ oxygen at a pressure higher than one atmosphere absolute (ATA),and has been used as an auxiliary therapy for various skin diseases.It has been proved that HBO can increase the oxygen content in skin tissues,accelerate aerobic metabolism of skin,promote epithelial regeneration and wound healing,relieve adverse stimuli on peripheral nerves and sensors in the skin,inhibit apoptosis of neurons,enhance the function of regulatory T cells,alleviate inflammation,and mobilize vascular stem/progenitor cells (SPCs) from the bone marrow to peripheral blood and ulcer tissues.At present,HBO has been widely applied in the auxiliary treatment of psoriasis,atopic dermatitis,postberpetic neuralgia,chronic refractory cutaneous ulcer,pyoderma gangrenosum,fungal infection,vascular embolization after cosmetic facial filling,and some other skin diseases.

Stereotactic body radiation therapy ( SBRT ) for locally advanced pancreatic cancer ( LAPC) shows good signs of efficacy as measured by local control,which can also reduce toxicity. The dose fractionation in foreign countries have changed from conventional fractionation to single fraction and finally moderate hypofractionation. It is similar to that in China, with the dose fractionation changing from conventional fractionation to moderate hypofractionation. This review introduces the latest research results of dose fractionation of SBRT for LAPC.

Objective To observe the histopathological features of early skin lesions and serum inflammatory mediators changes in the diabetes mellitus(DM) rats.Methods A total of 50 Wistar rats at 8 to 10 weeks of age were divided into normal control group(C group,n=25) and diabetic group(DC group,n=25).The rats of DC group were given a high-glucose and high-fat diet for 2 weeks to induce insulin resistance and then an intraperitoneal injection of 35 mg/kg streptozotocin.All 25 rats were identified to be diabetic models with their fasting blood glucose over ≥7.0 mmol/L.Four rats of C group or DC group were killed to take the skin tissues in the 4th,8th and 12th weekend.In the 16th week,the heart blood samples of the left 13 rats of C group and 10 rats of DC group were collected to measure TNF-?,IL-6 and C-RP levels,and the skin samples were also taken for pathological observation and full-thickness and dermal thickness measurement.Results In the 16th week,the TNF-?,IL-6 and C-RP levels of DC group were significantly higher than the normal group(P

Objective To investigate the effects of rosiglitazone on serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?),interleukin-6 (IL-6),C-reactive protein (C-RP) and superoxide dismutase (SOD),and early skin changes in the diabetic rats.Methods The rats were divided into normal control group (C group,n=13),diabetic control group (DC group,n=13),diabetes and insulin treatment group (DI group,n=13),diabetes and rosiglitazone treatment group (DR group,n=13).The diabetic rat models were established with high-fat diet for 2 weeks followed by intraperitoneal injection of 35 mg/kg streptozotocin injection,the rats were idenfied as diabetic when their fasting blood glucose (FBG) over 7.0 mmol/L.The living rats were given corresponding treatment,subcutaneous injection of 1 to 2 U/d insulin,intragastric injection of 5 mg/(kg?d) rosiglitazone,or sterile water.Heart blood samples of rats from each group were collected to measure TNF-?,IL-6,C-RP and SOD levels in the 16th weekend.Also the skin was taken for pathological observation and full-thickness as well as dermal thickness measurements.Results The serum levels of IL-6,TNF-? and C-RP in diabetic group were significantly higher than those in normal group (P
