Objective To present the means of localizing the kidney with ectopic ureter in order to provide the reliable ground for surgical strategy. Methods Clinical manifestation study,IVU,SPECT imaging and cystoscopy were conducted.All the 58 patints are female with a mean age of 3.4 years.According to the creteria presented in reference,5 were type Ⅰ,42 type Ⅲ,1 type Ⅳ,8 type Ⅴ and 2 type Ⅵ. Results Operative finding revealed the accurate localization and diagnosis rate of IVU has been 95%(40/42) in type Ⅲ ectopic ureter,B-ultrasonograph 27%(12/53),SPECT 37%(6/16).With the combined consideration of imaging procedures and cystoscopy,the accurate localization and diagnosis rate has been 98%(57/58). Conclusions Combined use of imaging procedures and cystoscopy would improve the localization and diagnosis rate.Cystoscopy is the most reliable except in type Ⅲ ectopic ureter.

ObjectiveTo analyze the relationship between result of hemorheology and non-pathological factors such as sex, age and life habit.Methods3483 healthy adults who had health examination were divided into different groups according to sex and age, and results of hemorheological test of them were analyzed and compared with reference values.ResultsAll hemorheological indexes of men were higher than that of women. The whole blood viscosity of female had an increasing trend along with the age increasing. However, the result of hemorheology of male showed that the index of the age of 30～49 was higher than the age of more than 50, and had a decreasing trend along with the age increasing after the age of 50. The index of high shear viscosity, low shear viscosity and hematocrit of both male and female were all higher than the reference values offered by apparatus.ConclusionEffect of non-pathological factors such as age, sex and life habit on index of hemorheology should be considered.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application and safety of CT-guided transthoracic cutting needle lung biopsy in diagnosing diffuse lung diseases. Methods By using automatic biopsy gun (14 & 16 gauge), CT-guided transthoracic cutting needle lung biopsy was performed in 29 cases with diffuse lung diseases. The samples obtained were sent for pathological and immunohistochemical examination. The sampling successful rate, the diagnostic accuracy and the occurrence of complications were analyzed. Results Technical success rate was 100%, and large size of sample enough for pathological and immunohistochemical examination was obtained in all 29 cases. Definite pathological diagnosis could be made in 25 cases, with the positive diagnostic rate of 82.8%. The main complications included pneumothorax and pulmonary hemorrhage. The symptoms in most cases were not severe and disappeared within one week after the treatment. Conclusion For the diagnosis of diffuse lung diseases, CT-guided transthoracic cutting needle lung biopsy is a safe, easy, effective and reliable method with high successful rate, high diagnostic value and fewer complications, in these respects this technique is superior to transbronchial lung biopsy, open lung biopsy and video-assisted thoracoscopic lung biopsy. Therefore, this technique should be popularized in clinical practice.

To improve the yield of industrial fermentation, a method based on near infrared spectroscopy was presented to predict the growth of yeast.The spectral data of fermentation sample were measured by Fourier-transform near-infrared (FT-NIR) spectrometer in the process of yeast culture.Each spectrum was acquired over the range of 10000-4000 cm1.Meanwhile, the optical density (OD) of fermentation sample was determined with photoelectric turbidity method.After that, a method based on competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS) was used to select characteristic wavelength variables of NIR data, and then extreme learning machine (ELM) algorithm was employed to develop the categorization model about the four growth processes of yeast.Experimental result showed that, only 30 characteristic wavelength variables of NIR data were selected by CRAS algorithms, and the prediction accuracies of training set and test set of the CARS-ELM model were 98.68% and 97.37%, respectively.The research showed that the near infrared spectrum analysis technology was feasible to predict the growth process of yeast.

Objective To analyze the characteristics and changes in the disease spectrum of Air Force(AF) servicemen in order to provide reference for the determinatron of the overall level of health of AF and priorities of disease prevention and control.Methods The data of outpatient and inpatient diseases between 2009 and 2013 in AF was collected and analyzed statistically according to the International Classification of Diseases-9(ICD-9),and statistical description was performed with SPSS18.0.Results Between 2009 and 2013,unit B had the highest number of outpatients and inpatients,accounting for 47.74% and 39.64% respectively.The upper respiratory tract infections,gastroenteritis/gastritis,chronic low back pain,skin diseases,nasal sinusitis,training injury,trauma,hemorrhoids,varicocele and stone diseases were the common and frequently occurring diseases in AF,which were the top ten in the disease spectrum.Among them,the incidence and admission rate of skin diseases kept declining.However,the incidence of gastroenteritis/gastritis in unit A,the incidence and admission rate of chronic low back pain in unit B and D,the incidence of injury in unit D,as well as the incidence of neurological headache and hypertension in unit C and D were higher than in other units.Conclusion Respiratory system disease,and occupation-related diseases such as low back pain,training injuries,trauma,skin disease and digestive system disease are the focus of health care in AF.Health education and health promotion for these diseases should be improved,and health intervention for key populations should be enhanced.

Objective To analyse the characteristics of fundus fluorescein angiography(FFA)of iatrogenic retinal vascular occlu- sion.Design Retrospective case series.Participants 9 eyes of 9 patients with iatrogenic retinal vascular occlusion and 16 eyes of 16 patients with non-iatrogenic retinal vascular occlusion in Beijing Tongren Hospital in 2002-2005.Methods All patients were examined with FFA.The difference of circulation time of retinal vessels both in iatrogenic and non-iatrogenic retinal vascular occlusion patients was compared.Main Outcome Measures The starting perfusion time and the finishing time of retinal artery or vein.Results In pa- tients with iatrogenic(4 cases)and non-iatrogenic(12 cases)central retinal artery occlusion,the finishing perfusion time was separately 79.33?87.04s and 19.20?4.61s; the finishing time of retinal vein was separately 128.07?149.11s and 33.16?15.34s.In iatrogenic(4 cas- es)and non-iatrogenic(4 cases)central retinal artery together with central retinal vein occlusion patients,the finishing perfusion time of retinal artery was separately 211.67?371.26s and 30.07?17.26s;the finishing perfusion time of retinal vein was 232.43?358.52s and 48. 81?11.64s.One patient was ocular artery occlusion.FFA showed that choroidal background fluorescence and central artery were perfused slowly,the vascular fluorescence perfusion was interrupted before it came out of optic disk and the perfusion interruption continued until late stage with extensive peripheral non-perfusion areas.Conclusion The perfusion time of the retinal artery and vein in iatrogenic reti- nal vascular occlusion may be much longer than that in non-iatrogenic retinal vascular occlusion.

AIM:To study the KIF21A gene mutation in a Han family with concomitant exotropia. ·METHODS: The genomic DNA of five family members was extracted from peripheral blood leukocytes and amplified with PCR. The PCR products were purified for DNA sequencing. DNA sequences were aligned with the human KIF21A gene sequences registered in GenBank. · RESULTS: Mutation analysis of all exons of the pedigree's KIF21A gene reveals no gene mutation in any of the families. ·CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrates that the KIF21A gene maybe is not virulence gene in this pedigree.
