Objective To observe the ultrasonographic features of intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL). Methods Ultrasonographic features, pathological results and the clinical manifestations of 7 patients with IVLs were analyzed retrospectively, and the causes of misdiagnosis were discussed as well. Results The median age of 7 IVL patients was 40 years old. Five patients underwent previously hysterectomy due to probable diagnosis of leiomyoma with the mean recurrent time of 13.8 months. Three lesions extended into the right atrium, 3 involved the inferior venous cava and 1 was confined in the pelvis venous. Ultrasonographic findings of IVL included uterine solid lesions with intravascular disease, solid occupied lesions in the pelvis with intravascular disease after hysterectomy, solid occupied lesions in the pelvis, large abdominal vessels and cardiac chambes with intravascular disease after hysterectomy. The main misdiagnosis cause was that IVL had similar ultrasonographic features with hysteromyoma, and intravascular lesions of IVL was hard to detect in the early stage. Conclusion Color Doppler ultrasonography is a valuable imaging mortality for detection and follow-up of IVL.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of 32P application and interventional therapy in skin hemangioma, and to sum up the role of nursing in the process of the treatment. Methods 734 cases of skin hemangiorna were involved in the study. Personalized treatment strategy and nursing measures were implemented according to different kinds of skin hernangioma, 32p application device was made with the dose of 1 Gy per square centimeter every day, and the total dose of interventional therapy was from 6.8μCi to 10.0μCi per square centimeter according to the site of lesions and the patients' age. The treatment interva] was about one and a haft month or two months. The specific nursing measures were as follows: effective communication should be undertaken to remove the concerns of patients before therapy. Meanwhile, the lesions should be taken a picture by a digital camera before and after therapy. Thus, the effect could be evaluated objectively. In addition, the follow-up by telephone also was done in the study. Results the cure rate and the effective rate of 32P in the treatment of skin hemangioma were 78.88% and 94.14% respectively.The treatment effect was the best in hemangioma simplex among different kinds of skin hemangioma. The treatment effect had a negative correlation with the age of the patients. Selective nursing reduced incidence of complication. Conclusions There's a satisfactory effect of 32p application and interventional therapy in the treatment of skin hemangioma. Meanwhile, nursing plays an important role in the treatment.

Aim To further study the molecular mecha-nism of the herbs with hot nature on the regulational action on TRPV1 channel based on the 7900 Real-time PCR instrument. Methods 7900 PCR instrument was applied to detect the intracellular flurescence of TRPV1 channel in the dorsal root ganglions ( DRG ) neurons and the effect on the TRPV1 ’ s thermo-sensational functions of the selected 11 ingredients from hot herbs was explored. Results TRPV1 channels could be ac-tivated by gradually elevated temperature; the activa-tion process could be blocked by the TRPV1 specific blocking agent capsaizepine. Most of the ingredients from hot-nature herbs had the potential to up-regualate TRPV1 channel function. Conclusions The estab-lished TRPV1 channel detection system based on PCR instrument is suitable for the analysis of regulational functions of drugs on the heat-activated TRPV1 chan-nel;the functions of hot herbs may be related to the up-regualtional effects of its active ingredients on the TRPV1 channel which will further up-regulate energy metabolism.

Objective To investigate the association between levels of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and the risks of metabolic syndrome in middle-aged and elderly Chinese. Methods After excluding subjects with known liver disease, excess alcohol consumption and serum ALT≥40 IU/L,1 664 subjects aged 40 years or older from Baoshan Community, Shanghai were recruited to undergo questionnaire interview, anthropometric measurements, and fasting blood sampling. Biochemical features were evaluated and the metabolic syndrome was defined according to the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP ATP III) criteria with modification on waist circumference cutoff which is more appropriate for an Asian population. Results Increased ALT levels were associated with more unfavorable metabolic risk profiles. The prevalence rates of the metabolic syndrome in participants with increasing ALT quartiles were 29. 2% , 38. 0% , 44.9% , and 62. 9% , respectively (P for trend <0. 01 ). ALT concentrations were significantly elevated with increasing number of the metabolic syndrome components (P for trend<0.01). Serum ALT levels were significantly associated with the risks of metabolic syndrome and most of its components in a dose-response manner. As compared with participants in the first ALT quartile, the risks of metabolic syndrome were increased by 146% , central obesity by 204% , hypertension by 35% , high triglycerides by 133% , and hyperglycemia by 72% in participants of the fourth ALT quartile. Conclusions A high-normal serum ALT level was significantly associated with an increased risk of the metabolic syndrome in middle-aged and elderly Chinese.
