Objective To investigate the technical feasibility and clinical significance of non-vascular contrast-enhanced ultrasound(NVCEUS) in screening pyelogenie cyst out of simple renal cysts so as to avoid damage to the urinary tract from absolute ethanol while undergoing percutaneous aspiration and ethanol sclerotherapy(PAEST). Methods Following an inclusion criteria 23 patients with renal cysts were selected to receive NVCEUS scanning by means of administrating SonoVue contrast agents through puncture needle into their renal cyst lumen prior to the injection of absolute ethanol for sclerosing treatment. By the demonstration of hyperechoic contrast agents leaving from intra cyst into renal collecting system,a pyelogenic cyst was defined. The patients with this kind of cyst was not allowed for further ethanol sclerotherapy. Results NVCEUS made 3 patients with pyelogenic cyst resembling simple ones free from ethanol selerotherapy,and 4 patients suspicious of pyelogenic cyst due to weird cyst configuration remain in the list of simple cyst for further selerotherapy. Conclusions NVCEUS of renal cyst is highly capable of differentiating pyelogenie cyst from simple cyst and highly valuable in increasing the safety for the procedure of PAEST.

Objective To study treatment of massive variceal bleeding secondary to localized pancreatitis-associated portal hypertension (MVBPAPH).Methods A retrospective study on the clinical data of patients with MVBPAPH was carried out.Of 24 patients with MVBPAPH,20 had pancreatic pseudocysts.12 were operated after failure of treatment with endovascular intervention for variceal bleeding (including 10 patients with splenectomy and gastric fundus-body peripheral vessels amputation and 2 patients with pancreatic pseudocystogastrostomy).8 patients underwent partial splenic embolization and left gastroepiploic artery embolization.4 patients directly underwent splenectomy and gastric fundus-body peripheral vessels amputation for variceal bleeding.Results Left pleural effusion developed in 5 patients who underwent arterial embolization.Left pleural effusion and lung infection occurred in 2 patients who underwent operation.All patients recovered well and were discharged home.During the follow-up period of 2 to 72 months,no rebleeding occurred in these patients (including 2 patients had passed little interval melena).Gastroscopy re-examination showed that variceal veins were not found in 18 patients.Variceal veins which were detected in the remaining 6 patients were obviously less severe.Conclusion Individualized treatment should be given to patients with MVBPAPH and according to the specific type of pancreatitis and the onset time of any accompanying pseudocyst.

Objective:To assess the implementation of injection-related risk management based on WeChat platform for type 2 diabetic patients with the insulin self-injection.Methods:A total of 124 diabetic patients, who would receive insulin therapy by self-injection at home after discharge from the PLA 903 hospital during April 2017 to July 2018, were divided into the control group( n=62)and the study group( n=62). All patients were given routine education on insulin injection during the hospitalization,while the study group( n=62)received additional video and text education based on WeChat platform after discharge.

Objective To explore the possibities of routine disinfection for prosthetic sockets. Methods From June to August, 2016, 19 lower limbs prosthesis wearers wiped their prosthetic socket surfaces and sprayed the stump socks with a compound of quaternary ammoni-um salt every night for three weeks. Meanwhile, field investigation and sampling were carried out weekly. Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudo-monas aeruginosa, Escherichia Coli and Candida albicans were isolated and identified, and colony counting was carried out. Results After disinfection, the number of bacteria on the prosthetic socket reduced 1.8-3.0 log, and the number of fungi reduced 1.6-1.9 log. One strain of Staphylococcus aureus and one strain of Escherichia Coli were isolated before disinfection and one strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was isolated after disinfection. Eczema and itching symptoms relieved or disappeared and deodorant effect was distinguished after continuous disinfection. Conclusion Disinfection on prosthetic sockets with compound of quaternary ammonium salt may control the microbial contam-ination and odor, reduce the incidence of eczema and other skin diseases.

Objective To study the etiology of nosocomial infection and the risk factors in senile patients with acute myelogenous leukemia who received chemotherapy, then to explore the preventive measure. Methods 9lcases of senile patients with AML received 304 times of chemotherapy, then to analyze the rate of nosocomial infection, the infection site, the result of etiological examination and the relationship between the rate of nosocomial infection and the absolute of neutrophil count in peripheral blood and the duration of agranulocytosis. And then the results were compared with the non-senile patients with AML. Results The statistical indicators of nosocomial infection in senile patients with AML was higher than those younger ones. The rate of infection in lower respiratory tract, oral, alimentary canal, skin, anal area and the rate of sepsis in senile people was higher than those younger ones.Positive rate of fungal infection of senile patients was higher. The nosocomial infection in the patients whose absolute neutrophil count in peripheral blood was no more than 0.5×l09/L,and prolonged over 7 days was specific higher. Conclusions Senile patients with AML is the high risk group for nosocomial infection. Age, chemotherapy, the neutrocytopenia level and prolonged time are related to the nosocomial infection in senile patients with AML. It is necessary to take positive measure to control nosocominal infection and advance life quality of senile patients.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the efficacy and safety of metformin in the treatment of type 2 diabetes(T2DM) with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD). METHODS:106 patients with T2DM with NAFLD were randomly divided into control group and observation group. Control group was received health education about T2DM with NAFLD and living intervention(diabe-tes diet and physical therapy);observation group was additionally given Metformin tablet 0.5 g,orally,3 times a day. The treat-ment course for both groups was 12 weeks. Clinical efficacy,and liver fat content,BMI,FPG,IR,TG,TC,LDL-C,HDL-C,HbA1c before and after treatment,and incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS:After treatment,liver fat con-tent and related index in 2 groups were significantly better than before(except HOMA-IR in control group),and observaton group was better than control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). The total effective rate in observation group was significantly higher than control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Based on the conventional treatment,metformin has good efficacy and safety in the treatment of T2DM with NAFLD.

Objective To investigate abdominal visceral fat area and its relationship with insulin resistance in male patients with type 2 diabetes and normal body mass index (BMI).Methods Seven male patients with type 2 diabetes and normal BMI were divided into two groups according to the abdominal visceral fat area (VFA) measured by CT:visceral obesity group (VFA ≥ 100 cm2) and non-visceral obesity group.Indicators of glucose and lipids metabolism were measured in two groups.Results Among 70 patients 50 (71％) had visceral obesity.In 59 patients who had normal BMI and normal waist circumference (≤90 cm),41 presented visceral obesity (69％).Compared with non-visceral obesity group,the waist circumference,homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR),triglyceride,and VFA were significantly higher in visceral obesity group [(86.4 ± 5.6) vs.(81.2 ± 4.8) cm,t =-2.980,P ＜ 0.01;2.83±2.31 vs.2.01±1.30,t=-2.025,P＜0.05;1.93(1.26-2.79) vs.1.11(0.75-1.46) mmol/L,Z=-3.777,P＜0.01;(143.6 ±31.8)vs.(73.7 ±17.3)cm2,t =-11.456,P＜0.01].Fasting insulin,fasting plasma glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin tended higher in visceral obesity group but not significantly (P ＞ 0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that after adjustment for age and body mass index,abdominal VFA was positively correlated with HOMA-IR (r =0.240,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Male type 2 diabetic patients have a high rate of visceral obesity even when their body mass index and waist circumference are normal.Abdominal visceral fat area is closely associated with insulin resistance.

Objective To investigate the role of ATP￣binding cassette ( ABC ) family on the resistance of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) stem cells (CSCs) to cisplatin. Methods We compared the differences between the drug extravasation capability of CNE￣2 and CNE￣2S by using Rhodamine￣123 efflux assay. We determined the mRNA and protein expression levels of ABC transport family members, including ABCA3,ABCB1,ABCB5,ABCC1,ABCC2 and ABCG2,after 48 h being treated with 1 μmol.L-1 cisplatin by RT￣PC and Western blotting.Rhoamine￣123 efflux and apoptosis by cisplatin in two kinds of cells was examined by ABCA3 gene silencing with specific small￣interfering RNA. Results The IC50 of cisplatin on CNE￣2S was 4.1 fold to that on CNE￣2(P<0.05).For the relative drug effluent activity and Na+K+ ATPase activity,CNE￣2S was 4.8 fold to CNE￣2(P<0.05),suggested that CNE￣2S expressed more ABCA3,ABCB1,ABCC1 and ABCG2 in comparison to CNE￣2(P<0.05).After 48 h treatment with 1 μmol.L-1 cisplatin,ABCA3 specifically highly expressed in CNE￣2S (P<0.05), and knocking down of ABCA3 resulted in reduction of rhodamine￣123 efflux and increase of apoptosis. Conclusion The cisplatin resistance of NPC CSCs is associated with enhanced expression of ABCA3,ABCC1 and ABCG2, suppression of ABCA3 could reverse the resistance of NPC CSCs to cisplatin.
