Objective: : To investigate whether development of the sph e noid sinus affect the surgical approach via saddle area. Methods: The pneumatization of sphenoid sinus of 50 cadaver heads was studied through t hinner CT scanning of coronal, sagittal and axial position. The sphenoid sinus w as classified according to the degree of pneumatization of sphenoid sinus toward s sphenoid bone, small wing of sphenoid bone and epippium. Results: There were 4% conchal, 18% pre-sellar, 18% semi-sellar, 14% sellar, 46% sellar -occipital in 100 sphenoid sinus cases. The transversal diameter of left and ri ght was 18.48 mm and 17.58 mm; The sagittal diameter of left and right was 2 2.20 mm and 20.82 mm, The vertical diameter of left and right was 21.02 mm and 2 0.38 mm. The distance between centre track and the later wall of sphenoid sinus was 14.78 mm in left side and 15.18 mm in right side. Conclusion: Thinner CT scanning with coronal and sagittal position can clearly show pneum atization of sphenoid sinus on both sides. Different pneumatization of sphenoid sinus provide anatomical basis for choosing operation approach.

Objective To analyze the dose‐effects of different doses of dexmedetomidine for sedation and sleep of the patients under epidural nerve block anesthesia .Methods A total of 82 patients undergoing elective lower limbs surgery(ASA grade Ⅰ - Ⅱ) were randomly divided into 4 different doses of dexmedetomidine groups(group 1 ,n=19 ;group 2 ,n=22 ;group 3 ,n=20;group 4 , n=21) ,under continuous epidural nerve block ,the loading dose of dexmedetomidine 0 .7 ,0 .8 ,0 .9 ,1 .0μg · kg -1 · h-1 was intrave‐nously pumped for 30 min ,then pumped at a rate of 0 .7 ,0 .8 ,0 .9 ,1 .0 μg · kg -1 · h-1 in the group 1 ,2 ,3 and 4 respectively .If any patient in 4 groups fell asleep at less than half an hour ,the loading dose was stopped and the continuous dose was changed to pump , the drug administration was discontinued at wound dressing after operation .Whether the patient falling asleep was recorded ,and the mean arterial blood pressure ,heart rate at 4 time points of 10 ,30 ,60 ,90 min after infusion of dexmedetomidine were also recorded . The 50% effective dose(ED50 ) ,ED95 and 95% confidence interval(CI) were calculated by using the Probit method .Results ED50 and ED95 of dexmedetomidine were 0 .65μg/kg(95% CI:0 .36-0 .73μg/kg)and 1 .00 μg /kg(95% CI:0 .90-1 .74μg/kg) ,which could decrease the heart rate and increase the arterial blood pressure .Conclusion Although dexmedetomidine can decrease the heart rate and increase the arterial blood pressure ,but the patients quietly fall asleep without discomfort and pain occurrence by the intra‐venous administration under continuous epidural nerve block .

The similar(coefficients) of 2 isolates among the 7 ECO isolates from the gastroenterology ward and 2(isolates)(among) the 18 ECO isolates from the respiratory ward were more than 90%.The isolates whose similarity was more than 90% were also found in other wards.CONCLUSIONS There are vertical disseminations of single clone of ESBL-producing organisms in several wards,especially in the ICU.It is necessary to strengthen the management of(infection)-control.

1/2 cycle, three cases

Objective To analyze the CT findings and mechanisms of intracranial hemorrhage complicating infective endocarditis(IE).Methods The clinical materials of 5 cases with intracranial hemorrhage complicating IE were collected. Unenhanced CT was performed in all cases. Results Intracranial hemorrhage complicating IE included parenchymal hematomas, subarachnoid hemorrhages and hemorrhagic infarcts. Parenchymal hematomas could be sporadic or multiple and were all located in cortical or subcortical regions. Conclusion Perfectly understanding the mechanisms of the intracranial hemorrhage complicating IE is helpful to understand its CT findings and helpful for etiological diagnosis .

Objective To explore self-emulsifying particle size characterization methods and compare the regularity of various methods. Methods By setting the clarity level of turbidity standard solution, with two less soluble drugs-diterpene lactone compounds Chuanhuning and dihydropyridine drug nifedipine as model drugs, 10-12 clarity level prescriptions were selected from six different ternary phase diagram. Laser particle size scanner was used to determine the particle size, and UV-visible spectrophotometry to determine its absorbance. Three methods of particle size characterization rules were compared by drawing charts. Results There was a positive correlationship among droplet particle size, absorbance and clarity grade of emulsion formed by prescription in the same phase diagram. But, there was no regularity among droplet particle size, absorbance and clarity grade of emulsion formed by prescription in different phase diagram. Conclusion The droplet particle size of emulsion formed by prescription containing the same drugs and excipients in different proportions can be compared by clarity with visual method or absorbance with UV-visible spectrophotometer.

Objective To explore the change in anatomical volume during intensity?modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for different stages of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and its influence on dose distribution, and to assess the necessity to modify the IMRT plan. Methods Twenty?four patients with newly diagnosed NPC who received IMRT and chemotherapy were enrolled in the study, and were divided into early?intermediate group ( 12 cases ) and locally advanced group ( 12 cases ) according to the 2008 staging system for NPC. Each patient had a repeated CT scan at week 5 of radiotherapy, and target volume and organs at risk ( OAR) were contoured. The dose distribution of the original plan shown on CT was calculated. Changes in target volume, OAR anatomical volume, and dose distribution were analyzed, and paired t?test and Spearman correlation analysis were performed. Results In the early?intermediate group, gross target volume of neck positive lymph nodes (GTVnd) was reduced during radiotherapy (P=0. 059), and gross target volume of nasopharynx ( GTVnx ) , high?risk clinical target volume ( CTV1 ) , and parotid volume were reduced significantly during radiotherapy ( P= 0. 001, 0. 012, 0. 002, and 0. 000, respectively) . In locally advanced group, GTVnx , GTVnd , CTV1 , and parotid volume were significantly reduced during IMRT (P=0. 000, 0. 000, 0. 003, 0. 003, and 0. 000, respectively). Compared with the values before radiotherapy, the parotid dose increased significantly in the two groups during IMRT ( P=0. 044, 0. 026, 0. 033, and 0. 026, respectively;P=0. 024, 0. 016, 0. 030, and 0. 015, respectively) , and the increase in GTVnd dose was observed in the locally advanced group ( P= 0. 029 and 0. 049 ) . Conclusions It is recommended to perform another CT scan for patients with locally advanced NPC at week 5 of radiotherapy and formulate a new IMRT plan to maintain target volume dose and guarantee a safe parotid dose.

Objective Use MRS technology to detect in vivo Glx concentration of Zelanian rabbits' muscle.Methods Tweenty Zelanian rabbits are collected,SS-PRESS sequence is applied to check their Signal Ratio of Glx/TCr.After deta collection,draw blood and do the biopsy of the FOV's muscle tissue immediately.Mensurate the rabbits' blood Crn concentration,Glx and TCr concentration in muscle.Research the correlation between the above factors,attempt using the MRS Glx/TCr Signal Ratio and blood Crn concentration to predict muscular Glx concentration.Results The correlation between MRS Glx/TCr Peak Ratio and muscular Glx/blood Crn concentration ratio is 0.681.A linear regression formula is obtained: The predict Value of Glx concentration in muscle(?mol/g muscle)= Glx/TCr Peak Ratio ? Crn concentration in blood(mg/dl)?28.754-0.631.Conclusion Using a linear regression formula to predict the muscular Glx concentration,the results can reflect the level of the true values without biopsy,though it's not accurate enough for quantitatively analysis.
