Objective To discuss the sterile effect of sterile adhesive tape on opened infusion bottle mouth. Methods From February to May, 2009, 400 infusion bottles were chosen and divided into the observation group and the control group with 200 bottles in each. The bottle mouth in the observation group was covered with sterile adhesive tape, while the control group used iodophor. The incidence of infusion reaction, disposable materials and time consuming of nurses were compared. Results No infusion reaction occurred in both groups. But disposable materials and time consuming was less in the observation group compared with the control group. Conclusions Application of sterile adhesive tape in sterilization of opened infusion bottle mouth is safe, reliable, simple and economic, it can save time and increase work efficiency of nurses.

Objective To find out the significance of different radiologieal examinations in the di-agnosis of the prostate carcinoma through studying their radiological misdiagnosis rate. Methods By searching for patients having radiological examination results in the database of prostate carcinoma in Tianjin,got the patients whose examination results were different from prostate carcinoma. Analyzed the misdiagnosis rate of each kind of imaging diagnosis using x2-test retrospectively. Results In all patients searched, the misdiagnosis rate of transabdominal ultrasonography, transrectal uhrasonography (TRUS), CT , MRI was 45.1%, 10.1%, 34.5% and 7.5% respectively. Statistical analysis showed that the misdiagnosis rate of MRI was the lowest, then TRUS, and CT. Transabdominal ultrasonography had the highest misdiagnosis rate. There was not significant difference between MRI and TRUS. Conclusions As an efficient and important screening method, transabdominal ultrasonography still need to get a higher definite diagnosis rate. TRUS don't have obvious advantages over pelvis MRI in the diagnosis of prostate carcinoma except its usefulness in the biopsy of prostate. Pelvis MRI is still the most important imaging diagnosis of prostate carcinoma and should be first choice because of its noninvasive intervention, convenience and lowest misdiagnosis rate.

Objective To explore the effect of the posterior condylar offset (PCO) on clinical results after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using a high-flex posterior-stabilized (PS) fixed-bearing prosthesis.Methods Clinical and radiographic materials of 107 consecutive female patients (107 knees),who had undergone primary TKAs for end-stage osteoarthritis was prospectively analyzed.All operations were performed by using the same operative technique.Based on the corrected PCO change,all cases were divided into two groups:66 knees in which the corrected PCO change ≥0 mm (aged 48-73 years,with an average of 61.4 years) and 41 knees in which the corrected PCO change ＜ 0 mm (aged 52-75 years,with an average of 62.2 years).One-year postoperatively,clinical and radiographic variables from the two groups were compared by independent t-test.The associations between the corrected PCO changes and the improvements of clinical variables in all patients were analyzed by Pearson linear correlation.Results The corrected PCO change was 2.49±1.71 mm in the PCO change ≥0 mm group and-1.28±1.41 mm in the PCO change ＜ 0 mm group.One-year postoperatively,the Knee Society scores,the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index,non-weight-bearing active and passive range of knee flexion,flexion contracture,and their improvements had no statistical differences between the two groups.The corrected PCO change was not significantly correlated with the improvement of any clinical variable.While the PCO change ≥0 mm group (130.40°± 11.63°) demonstrated greater flexion than the PCO change ＜ 0 mm group (123.80°±13.12°) during active weight-bearing one year after TKA,which was significantly different between the two groups (t=2.11,P=0.0401).Conclusion Restoration of PCO plays an important role in the optimization of active knee flexion during weight-bearing conditions after posterior-stabilized TKA,while it had no benefit to non-weight-bearing knee flexion and any other clinical result.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of retroperitoneal laparoscopic nephroureterectomy (RLNU) combined with transurethral electric coagulation on upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UUTUC).Methods Sixty UUTUC patients were enrolled from Jun.2012 to Apr.2013.The prospective clinical controlled analysis method was adopted in this study.All patients were divided into test group and control group according to the order of admission.Thirty cases (test group) underwent RLNU combined with electric coagulation,and 30 cases (control group) underwent RLNU combined with electric resection.The differences in operation time,blood loss,hospital stay and tumor recurrence rate between the 2 groups were compared.Results All the 60 operations for UUTUC were successful without conversion to open surgery.No intraoperative complications such as great vessels or surrounding organs damage occurred.There were 2 cases loss to follow-up in test group and 3 cases in control group.There were no significant differences in operation time,blood loss,follow-up time,tumor stage and tumor grade between the 2 groups.The hospital stay in the test group was shorter (5.5±2.0 d versus 7.1±2.2 d),the tumor recurrence rate was lower [4％ (1/28) versus 30％ (8/27)],and the differences were significant (P＜0.05).Conclusion Compared with RLNU combined with transurethral electric resection,RLNU combined with electric coagulation has advantages of shorter hospital stay and lower tumor recurrence rate.

The objective of this work was to estimate the absorbed dose of 131I to lungs in 131I therapy of differentiated thyroid carcinoma(DTC) with diffuse pulmonary metastases. Ten DTC patients with diffuse pulmonary metastases were recruited prospectively. Whole body planar scintigrams were acquired serially after administration of 7.4 GBq 131I to patients. The counts from the regions of interest of lungs and total body were obtained and converted to the percent of administered activity. The time-activity curves of lungs and total body were fit, and the areas under the curves were calculated. It was assumed that beta-eletron emissions from 131I deposited in lungs were completely absorbed by the diffuse DTC metastatic lesions, and that gamma-photon emissions from 131I deposited in the lungs and the remainder of body were irradiating the lungs. The absorbed dose to lungs was calculated according to Medical Internal Radiation Dosimetry (MIRD) formula. The median lungs absorbed dose was 0.33 Gy (range, 0.22-8.21 Gy). Based on the empiric fixed activity therapy of DTC with diffuse pulmonary metastases,the absorbed dose to lungs is low.
