Objective To study the clinical and MRI features of central pontine myelinolysis after liver transplantation.Methods 3 cases of orthotopic liver transplantation patients,displaying unconsciousness,drowsiness,reduced muscle strength of both lower extremities 3 to 21 days after the operation respectively,went through MRI scan in 2 days.Results MRI showed that symmetric long T1 and T2 signals,high-signal-intensity DWI and low-signal-intensity ADC were found in central pontine region.The cerebral cortex was involved in 2 cases,and abscess in basal ganglia appeared in 1 case.MRI examination showed that 2 cases had decreased lesion range,clear boundary and equal-signal-intensity DWI 35 days and 2 months respectively after.Conclusion MRI is valuable for the diagnosis of the patient with central pontine myelinolysis after liver transplantation.

Objective To know the prevalence of type 2 diabetes and its risk factors in the elderly in Gushan Town, Fuzhou City. Methods From July to November of 2007, 4653 elderly permanent residents from 14 administrative units were selected using random cluster sampling. Results The prevalence of elderly type 2 diabetes was 11.2%. Non-conditional logistic regression analysis showed that age, occupation, monthly income (OR=1.42, 95%CI: 1.13～1.77), family history of diabetes (OR=6.49, 95%CI: 4.62～9.10), concen- tric obesity (OR=1.47, 95%CI: 1.15～1.88) were independent risk factors for diabetes. Conclusion The type 2 diabetes prevalence rate of the elderly was higher, and the health education and interventions should be strengthened to the people who have family history of diabetes and concentric obesity.

0.05). In the general anesthesia group, glucose level at 10 minutes after pneumoperitoneum was significantly lower than that before anesthesia (P0.05). Conclusion Both epidural and general anesthesia can effectively inhibit the patients' stress response in laparoscopic gynecological operation.

To find a new way to treat patients with ectopic eruption of canine or impaction canine,autogenous transplantation of those teeth was explored and had good results.

Objective To study the advantage of magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) in diagnosis of complications following liver transplantation.Methods The MRI appearances were analyzed retrospectively in seventy-eight patients with postoperative complications after liver transplantation which was confirmed by operation,hepatic biopsy,angiography and cholangiography.Results The symptoms of skin and sclera jaundice,fever and belly pain were found in sixty-four patients.Liver function was abnormal in laboratory tests.Fourteen were non-symptom with normal liver function.By analyzing the MRI images,the results were found including hepatic portal vein anastomosis stenosis(n=21),hepatic arterial anastomosis stenosis(n=10),inferior vena cava anastomosis stenosis(n=1),bile duct anastomosis stenosis(n=15),bile duct non-anastomosis stenosis(n=5),transplant rejection(n=17),hepatic carcinoma recurrence(n=9).Conclusion MRI can be revealed hepatic vessels and bile ducts stenosis and dilations;it's the best device in diagnosis of complications after liver transplantation.

Objective To investigate the effect of nicardipine on the time-response relationships of vecuronium and atracuriumMethods Forty ASA grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients undergoing elective surgical operations were randomly allocated to four groups A single dose of vecuronium was intravenously administered at twice ED 95(01mg?kg -1) in groupⅠand combined with nicardipine 20?g?kg -1 in group Ⅱ Atracurium was given at the dose of twice ED 95 (05mg?kg -1) in groupⅢ and combined with nicardipine in group Ⅳ Anaesthesia was maintained with 50% nitrous oxide in oxygen and fentanyl in all groups Neuromuscular function was monitored with Biometer accelographResults The onset time of vecuronium was shortened from 26 min (groupⅠ) to 20 min (groupⅡ) (P

Objective To evaluate the difference of myocardium strain between myocadial infarction and ventricular aneurysm (VA) by two-dimensional speckle-tracking imaging in rabbits.Methods 26 healthy New Zealand white rabbits were enrolled in this study,6 were put into the control group and 20 in the experimental group.models of myocardial infarction concomitant with VA were prepared by the ligation of the middle segment of left anterior descending artery and left circumflex artery.At 4 weeks after the procedure,according to the pathological inspect and echocardiography for whether VA formed,the experimental animals were divided into the VA group and the myocadial infarction group.Echocardiography was performed to measure the LV cavity size and cardiac function.Radial strain rate (SrR) and circumferential strain rate(SrC) indexes were measured by 2D-STI software for each animal at the level of apex in left ventricular short-axis view,and then calculated the strain rate decrease percentage in each segment.Results 1)Compared with the control group,SrR-S,SrR-E,SrR A,SrC-S,SrC-E,SrC-A in all segments were reduced significantly in the VA group and the myocadial infarction group (P ＜ 0.05),the VA group was the most significant.2)Compared with the myocadial infarction group,the strain rate decrease percentage of SrR-S,SrR-E,SrR-A,SrC-S,SrC-E,SrC-A in all segment had significant in the VA group.Comparison between the each section,the strain rate decrease percentage of SrR-Santerior wall,SrR-Sateral wall,SrC-Santerior wall,SrC-Slateral wall were the most significant.3)There were the tighter relationship between the strain rate decrease percentage of SrR-Santerior wall,SrC-Santerior wall,SrR-Slateral wall,SrC-Slateral wall and left ventricular ejection fraction (r =0.82,0.72,0.75,0.71,repectively,all P ＜ 0.05).4) The ROC curve analysis showed that when the strain rate decrease percentage was 60％ as the critical point,the strain rate decrease percentage of SrC-Santerior wall,SrC-Slateral wall,SrR-Santerior wall,SrR-Slateral wall had a sensitivity of 83.30 ％,84.40％,83.30％,67.70％％ and a specificity was 73.60％,78.20％％,69.70％,83.30％ for prognosis ventricular aneurysm,repectively.Conclusions After ventricular aneurysm formation,anterior and lateral wall myocardial strain were give priority to the myocardial mechanics reconstruction,thus systolic myocardial strain rate decrease percentage can be important indicator of infarction myocardial developing into ventricular aneurysm.
