Objective To compare the effect and survival period of endoscopic treatment group and non endoscopic treatment group of esophageal gastric varices bleeding in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and portal vein tumor thrombus, in order to define the significance of endoscopic therapy for prolonging the survival period of patients. Methods 76 patients diagnosed as esophageal gastric varices bleeding with hepatocellular carcinoma and portal vein tumor thrombus from Jan. 2013 to Dec. 2015 were enrolled, of all these cases, 27 were non endoscopic treatment group and 49 were endoscopic treatment group. The medical records were analyzed retrospectively. Then compare the effect of emergency treatment, the main causes of death and survival time of the two groups. Results In the non endoscopic treatment group, 40.7% (11/27) patients died in one week after bleeding, 81.5% (22/27) patients died of esophageal gastric varices bleeding, the mean survival period was (42.03 ± 13.94) days; In the endoscopic treatment group, only 16.3% (8/49) patients died in one week (P < 0.05), 55.1% (27/49) patients died of esophageal gastric varices bleeding (P < 0.05), the mean survival time was (174.24 ± 34.42) days (P < 0.05). Conclusions Endoscopic therapy can effectively reduce the risk of death from acute hemorrhage and prolong the survival time in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and portal vein tumor thrombus.

Prostate cancer is one of the common malignant tumors of the urinary system and mostly found in elderly men. Like most tumors, prostate cancer involves a variety of molecules in its occurrence and progression. More studies on the development of prostate cancer focus on the tumor markers, DNA damage repair related genes, and tumor invasion and metastasis related factors. This article presents an overview on the research progress in these three aspects.

A sophisticated effort is made to uplift the clinical nursing quality in hospitals, which aims at improving hospital nursing quality by means of enhancing the management functionality of the nursing department, enhancing nursing systems, implementing clinical paths, and quality service campaigns. These efforts are designed to effectively improve hospital nursing quality.

Objective　This study was To investigate the incidence rate of Cockett syndrome and relationship between Cockett syndrome and varicose veins and deep venous incompetence of the left lower extremities.Methods　73 patients(100 legs) with varicose veins of the lower extremities were investigated by descending deep venography and iliography preoperatively.Results　There were 35(47.9%) cases with abnormalities of the left common iliac vein (ALCIV)in all the cases.There were 31 cases with this conditions in the patients with varicose veins of the left or both lower extremity.While in the patients with varicose veins of the only right lower extremity,there were only 4 cases with ALCIV.In contrast,there was a significant difference between groups(χ2=9.8641,P=0.0017).In the patients with ALCIV,14 cases with Ⅲ or Ⅳ grade of deep venous incomptence were found, and only 6 cases with deep venous incompetence in the patients without ALCIV.There was a significant difference(χ2=5.3688,P=0.0205).Conclusion　Cockett's syndrome frequently occurs in varicose veins of the left lower extremity.There is a relationship between them.Cockett's syndrome might be one of the causes for the deep venous incompetence of the left leg.

Objective To explore the changes and relationship of serum insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1) and leptin in children with growth hormone deficiency(GHD).Method Serum IGF-1 and leptin levels were measured by immunoradiometric assay in 20 prepuberal normal children and 23 children with GHD.Results Serum IGF-1 level in GHD group(51.158?29.988)?g/L was significantly lower than that in controls(112.680?41.540)?g/L.Serum leptin levels in GHD group(6.002?2.204)?g/L was significantly higher than that in controls(4.523?2.204)?g/L.There was no significant correlation between serum IGF-1 and leptin.Conclusion IGF-1 and leptin regulate growth in children with GHD in their individual way.

Objective To explore clinical characteristics of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAM)pa- tients.Methods Etiopathogenisis and clinical manifestations of 167 SAIl patients of different ages and cause of 24 SAH patients' exacerbation and death were retrospectively analyzed.Results The aneurysm was the main etiologies of SAH.The youth and middle-ages SAH patients were caused by aneurysm.Hypertensive arteriosclerosis was the second etiologies of SAH which was mainly in middle-ages and old ages.SAH caused by Vascular malformation main- ly appeared in youth group.Headache and vomitus and meningeal irritation sign which mainly appeared in youth and middle-ages groups.Occiput pain and conscious disturbance was mainly the first symptoms of aggravation and death of SAH which happened in 14 days after hemorrhage and under 45 year ages.Conclusion Aneurysm and vascular malformations are the main causes of SAH of young patients.And hypertensive arteriosclerosis is the main cause of the old.The clinical manifestations of the old are not as typical as the young.Posterior cranial fossa hemorrhage is the main cause of SAH patients which are mostly under 45 year ages and mostly happen in 14 days after bleeding.

Objective To summarize the experience of diagnosis,treatment and clinical effects of Ni-Ti shape memory alloy embracing fixator for severe chest trauma complicated with multiple rib frac-tures.Methods From January 2009 to June 2013,the clinical data of 148 cases with embracing fixator and 47 cases with non-internal fixation were retrospectively analyzed and compared.Results Internal fix-ation was superior to non-internal fixation in hospital stay,pain perception,mechanical ventilation time, pulmonary function recovery and complications(P<0.05).Conclusion Ni-Ti shape memory alloy em-bracing fixator is better than other conservative therapies in the treatment of multiple rib fractures and it's worthy of spreading.
