Objective: To study the examination of coronary sinus (CS) and blood flow by transthoracic echocardiography(TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography(TEE).Methods: Thirty patients with supraventricular tachycardia were studied by TTE and TEE. The CS was visualized using modified 4 chamber view. The position of the probe was optimized until the coronary sinus with its ostium into the right atrium could be visualized. CS flow recordings were performed by TEE with Doppler sample volume placed in the CS within a distance of no more than 10 mm from its ostium. Results: In all patients the angle between the doppler beam and the long axis of the CS was <30°. The CS was fully displayed in 18 patients by TTE and 28 patients by TEE. The length and width of the CS were (16.53±2.57) mm and (4.51±1.30) mm by TTE, (24.11±2.46) mm and (5.06±0.97) mm by TEE.The CS flow was characterized by biphasic flow.Its flow velocity was (39±7.8), (31±6.1) and (21±4.7) cm/s respectively. The CS flow velocity-imeintegral was(43±11.6),(43±13.0),(27±8.2) cm/s. Conclusion: Echocardiography is reliable for detecting CS and its flow. TTE is more feasible for detecting CS and its flow than TEE.

Objective To compare the effects of SFE - CO2 extraction and steam- distillation extraction for the extraction of volatile constituents from Huoxiang Zhengqi prescription. Methods The recovery rate of the volatile constituents and GC- MS method were used to compare the two different extraction methods. Result The recovery rate of volatile constituents was 0.45 % when extracted by steam distillation for 5 hours and 2.40 % by SFE - CO2 extraction for 3 hours. A large amount of peaks were detected in the SFE - CO2 extraction, while few compounds could be detected in the steam distillation extract 15 minutes later. Conclusion SFE - CO2 extraction method is a better method for the extraction of volatile constituents from Huoxiang Zhengqi prescription,with higher recovery rate, obtaining more ingredients and costing less time compared with those by steam distillation extract method.

Objective:Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia(AVNRT) is a common type of arrhythmia,for which radiofrequency ablation(RFCA) is the first therapeutic option.This study is to investigate the causes of 16 cases of temporary atrioventricular block(AVB) during RFCA and 2 cases of permanent AVB after RFCA in common and refractory AVNRT.Methods: We performed RFCA for 77 AVNRT patients by gradually increasing the ablation time,energy and frequency.Generally we chose the lower zone as the first position of ablation and,if invalid,moved the catheter gradually up to the middle or upper zone.Then we analyzed the correlation of AVB with A/V and H-wave in different positions.Results: The AVB risk was increased with the upward movement of the ablation zone and increase of A/V or H-wave(P 0.05). Conclusion: The method of gradually increasing the ablation time,energy and frequency can prevent temporary from permanent AVB.In the common AVNRT group,the middle and lower zone ablation,the multiple-peak A wave,small A wave and big V wave(A/V ≤ 0.45?0.37) with no H wave or H≤0.003?0.01 mV could significantly decrease the risk of RFCA related AVB,but the risk of AVB remains among the refractory AVNRT patients with CSO abnormality or expansion,even if with ablation in the lower zone.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect of half circle external fixation for the treatment of open tibial fractures.
METHODSFrom March 2005 to March 2011, 94 patients with open tibiofibula fractures were treated by closed manipulative or Kirschner-wire poking reduction with half circle groove external fixation including 63 males and 31 females with an average age of 39 years old ranging from 17 to 65 years old. Among these patients, 5 cases were cross shaped fractures, 19 were oblique form and spiral fractures, 70 cases were comminuted fractures. According to the fracture Gustilo classification, 49 cases were type IIIA, 45 were type IIIB. The incidence of wound infection, fracture healing time were observed. The function was evaluated according to the Johner-Wruhs standard.
RESULTSAll patients were followed up for 14 to 63 months (averaged 29 months). The wound healing time was from 16 to 39 weeks (means 21.4 weeks). No fracture nonunion, osteomyelitis and calf compartment syndrome occurred. The wounds of 81 cases were healed at the first period,deep wound infection occurred in 2 cases. According to the function Johner-Wruhs evaluation criteria:the result was excellent in 52 cases, good in 37 cases, fair in 5 cases.
CONCLUSIONClosed manipulative or Kirschner-wire poking reduction and half circle groove external fixation can reduce the infection rate of open tibiofibula fractures. For open tibiofibula comminuted fractures, after the half circle groove external fixation for 3 to 6 weeks, a middle Kirschner-wire was removed according to fracture end healing situation to make fixation dynamic and promote fracture healing.

Objective To probe the correlation between preoperative pulmonary dysfunction and postoperative pulmonary complications in patients of orthotopic liver transplantation. Methods From August 2008 to June 2009, 71 orthotopic liver transplantation patients were studied. Preoperative pulmonary function and its relationship with postoperative pulmonary complications were analyzed.Results Preoperatively 65 out of 71 patients had abnormal lung functions, suffering from pulmonary diffusing capacity reduction (65 cases, 91.5% ), followed by reduction of restrictive ventilation function (30 cases, 42. 2% ), small airway function reduction ( 28 cases, 39.4% ), and obstructive ventilatory function reduction (21 cases, 29. 6% ). The incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications was 56. 3% including: pulmonary atelectasis, pneumonia, acute respiratory failure. The incidence of posttransplantation pulmonary complications in patients with pulmonary restrictive or obstructive ventilation function reduction was higher than in normal group (x2 = 6.703, P= 0.010; x2 = 4.768, P = 0.029), and there was significant difference in pulmonary complication rate between groups of moderate and severe diffusing capacity reduction and mild reduction and normal range (x2 = 8.478, P = 0.004 ).Conclusions Preoperative pulmonary function abnormality in patients before liver transplantation such as pulmonary ventilatory function reduction (VCmax < 80% or FEV1.0 < 80% ) and moderate to severe pulmonary diffusing capacity reduction (TLCOSB < 60% ) predicts higher incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications.
