[ABSTRACT]OBJECTIVETo assess the upper airway and related structures in different patterns of the upper airway obstruction on cine magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).METHODSCMR images of upper airway were obtained in 30 male patients with severe OSAHS during waking state and natural sleep. The midsagittal plane images were obtained. Patients were classified into 3 groups based on the upper airway obstruction patterns at apnea events and the reference data of the upper airway were measured.RESULTSDuring natural sleep, the diameter of retropalatal region, retroglossal region, retroepiglottic region and the length of suprahyoid muscles were significantly shorter than those during waking state (P<0.01). The maximum angle between the suprahyoid muscles and the apex of the tongue during natural sleep was significantly larger than that during waking state (P<0.01). During wakefulness, there was a significantly difference in the diameter of retropalatal region among 3 obstruction patterns (P<0.01). During natural sleep, there were statistical difference in the diameter of retropalatal region and the upper tongue, the angle between the hard palate and soft palate, the maximum angle between the suprahyoid muscles and the apex of the tongue, and their change values among 3 obstruction patterns (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONThe measurements of the upper airway and related structures on CMR imaging in OSAHS patients could provide useful information in assessing upper airway.

OBJECTIVE To recognize the frontal recess cells and analyze their distributional characteristics during image navigation assisted endoscopic sinus surgery. METHODS 20 cases(39 sides)of chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps were observed in this study. The fontal recess cells and frontal sinus were opened under the endoscope and the distributional characteristics were observed and recorded, and then confirmed by the image navigation system. RESULTS Centred on frontal sinus ostium, frontal recess cells were divided into three areas: the agger nasi cell(ANC)and frontal cells(FC)are located in front of frontal sinus ostium(FS); frontal septum cells(IFSSC)and terminal cells(RT)are located at the same plane of FS; supra-ethmoidal bulla recess(SBR), frontal bulla cell(FBC)and super-obital cells(SOEC)are in the posterior area. The coincidence of identification for ANC, FCI and II, SBR, FBC and IFSSC under endoscope and image navigation is 100%, the coincidence of identification for FS is 89.7%, SOEC 80%, RT 71.4% and FC III and IV 60%. CONCLUSION The distribution of the frontal recess cells around the frontal ostium showed a fixed pattern.It would well benefit the orientation of frontal ostium and the opening of frontal sinus. Furthermore, it is significant for the orientation and opening of the frontal recess cells.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the mortality rates of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in Nantong,China from 1999 to 2011, in order to uncover dynamic trends and provide reasoned advice on intervention strategies to decrease HCC incidence and mortality in Nantong in the future.
METHODSVersions 10 and 9 of the WHO International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10 and ICD-9) were used to determine the number of HCC deaths in Nantong,China for the study's range of years. Thex2 test was applied to compare the HCC mortality rates according to sex and age. The Grey system GM(1,1) model was used to predict the next-5-year HCC mortality for Nantong.
RESULTSAnalysis of the standardized mortality in Nantong showed a slight decreasing trend from 1999 to 2011 (x2=57 545.98, P less than 0.001),with males showing a steeper decrease than females. The total mortality of HCC during these years was 53.41 per 100,000 people,with mortality among males being significantly higher than that among females (80.81 per 100,000 people vs. 26.94 per 100,000 people; x2=13 625.42, P less than 0.001). In general, HCC mortality increased with increase in age (general trend:x2=57 545.98, P less than 0.001; male trend: x2=39 878.8, P less than 0.001; female trend: x2=20 105.3, P less than 0.001). However,HCC mortality increased significantly in women after the age of 40 and in men after the age of 35. The GM(1,1) equation was: Yt=-1265.28e(-0.0375t)+1315.5, which predicted that the HCC mortality will decrease to 25.56 per 100,000 people in 2016.
CONCLUSIONAlthough HCC mortality generally decreased from 1999 to 2011, the rate remained high. Public health intervention strategies may be more effective if they focus on males over the age of 35 and females over the age of 40.
