CBS(Case Based Study)is a new teaching method,which is based on the case given.It requires students to answer questions according to the case. In the teaching,the students who are divided into groups,seek for resolvent by themselves. They should combine the information provided in the case,find the key answer and the relationship.The students gain the knowledge by reviewing and studying in the textbook,then analyse and solve questions with them. The application of CBS could make knowledge more relatively and systematic, moreover,it also make study more actively and initiatively.

Objective To summarize primary experiences of integrated fetal diagnosis and postnatal treatment for the transposition of the great arteries (TGA). Methods Five fetus were diagnozed as TGA at(28.4 ±4.4) weeks of gestation via fetal echocardiography. The mean age of the pregnant women was (28.4 ±3.0) years old. Delivers were taken by caesarean at (36.5 ±1.8) weeks of gestation. The body weight of neonates was (2468 ±442) grams. All neonates were transported to the department of neonatology and re-checked by echocardiography. 3 cases were TGA with intact ventricular septum, 2 cases were TGA with ventricular septal defect. Prostaglandin and mechanical ventilation were applied if oxygen saturation was lower. The standard arterial switch procedure was performed under cardiopulmonary bypass with moderate hypothermia. Results The mean age for patients at surgery was (9. 0 ±6. 2) days ( ranged 2-19 days). Three neonates survived, 2 preterm neonates died. One with body weight 1770 g, 2 days after operation was died of sudden heart arrest and failure of resuscitation. Another was treated by mechanical ventilation and prostaglandin after delivery and underwent operation at the second postnatal day, the neonate appeared low cardiac output and high serum lactate postoperatively and died in the third day. Conclusion The integrated fetal diagnosis and postnatal treatment for TGA could prevent severe cyanosis and emergency transportation after parturition. The lack of any link in the cooperation among the multidisciplinary team could affect the benefits for the TGA neonates provided by prenatal diagnosis.

The safety and efficacy of retroperitoneoscopic microwave ablation (MWA) in the treatment of renal hamartoma were evaluated. From July 2007 to July 2009, a total of 16 cases of renal hamartoma were treated with retroperitoneoscopic MWA. Peri- and post-operative findings were observed. Middle-term efficacy was assessed by contrast-enhanced computerized tomography (CT) in follow-up period. All patients received MWA of 1-5 points. The mean operative time was 85 min and the mean blood loss was 65 mL. During a median follow-up of 16 months, no evidence of disease recurrence was observed despite of incomplete ablation in 1 case. Retroperitoneoscopic MWA is a relatively simple procedure with less impact to renal function and less complication. The outcome of middle-term follow-up is satisfactory. Thus, retroperitoneoscopic MWA appears to be a safe and effective technique for renal hamartoma in selected patients.

Objective To evaluate the effect of dexamethasone to the cultured rat thoracic aortic smooth muscle cells(SMC)in vitro,and explore the role on it's prevention and cure for the in-stent restenosis after vascular intervention.Methods The rat thoracic aortic SMC were harvested and cultured for six to ten passages.The cultured SMC were synchronized and then restimulated to enter the cell cycle,and treated with incremental concentrations of dexamethasone or without dexamethasone as control.The proliferative assay was performed with MTT method in the different time points after treatment.RT-PCR was performed to assay the level of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)mRNA.Results 1.Dexamethasone progressively inhibited rat aortic SMC proliferation in a concentration-dependent fashion.The A value was statistically significant for different concentrations(F=36.02,P<0.001).The effect was not significant for dexamethasone concentrations either between 10~(-6)and 10~(-5)mol/L(P=0.065)or between 10~(-11)mol/L and control group(P= 0.567).2.RT-PCR suggested dexamethasone significantly decreased rat aortic SMC PCNA mRNA transcription in a concentration-dependent fashion.Statistical analysis indicated F=15.407 and P<0.001 by ANOVA. Comparing to the control,the corrected A value was not statistically significant at 10~(-9)or 10~(-11)mol/L groups by post hoc analysis.Conclusions Dexamethasone inhibits rat aortic SMC proliferation in a concentration- dependent fashion.The data suggest that effective action concentration is 10~(-7)mol/L with persistent time up to 96 hours or more.Dexamethasone may play the inhibit role to SMC at lower concentration with prolonging action time.
