This paper describes the value of positron emission tomography(PET) in diagnosis and staging of lung cancer. Current status and prospect of positron emission tomography in mainland of China were briefly discussed: PET examination cost has not been covered by national health care system at present. Numbers of PET should be increased within limits and its development should keep balance with economic and social development level. It is necessary to have more nuclear medicine physicians training and cooperation between PET physicians and clinical referring physicians.

0.05).Conclusion Gatifloxation is safe and efficient in the treatment of community acquired pneomonia.

During 131Ⅰ therapy or the natural course of DTC,2％ to 5％ of them will gradually no longer be sensitive to 131Ⅰ therapy and lead to radioactive iodine-refractory DTC (RAIR-DTC).Recent studies found that alterations of critical molecular targets in main signal transduction pathways could decrease the iodine-trapping function of thyroid carcinoma,such as BRAFV600E mutation,followed by negative 131 Ⅰ-whole body scan (WBS) and discounted efficacy.This article reviews novel diagnostic and therapeutic modalities for RAIR-DTC.

Objective To evaluate the significance of the panel of 6 microsatellites in detection of bladder cancer. Methods In the tumor tissue and urine sediment of 32 cases of bladder cancer 10 microsatellites were chosen and PCR-SSLP silver staining assay was conducted according to the methods described in the literature and our previous study.15 cases of non-bladder cancer served as controls. Results Microsatellite alternate (MA) was found in 30 out of 32 cases of bladder cancers,the sensitivity being 93.8%.The MA of urine sediment of 15 cases of non-bladder cancer was negative,the specifity being 100.0%.Among the 10 microsatellites, 6 ones were chosen;the MA positivity of the panel of the 6 ones was 90.6% (29/32).This result was not significantly different from that of the panel of 10 microsatellites. Conclusions MA assay is a sensitive,effective method for detection of bladder cancer.Compared with the panel of 10 microsatellites,the panel of 6 microsatellites may be a better tool for detection of bladder cancer.

Among all the ADRs,the systemic reactions represented 57.77%.CONCLUSION:It is necessary to popularize the knowledge on safe medication of Chinese materia medica,standardize clinical rational use of Chinese materia medica and its preparations and tighten control and monitoring on the ADRs induced by Chinese materia medica.

Objective To explore the incidence,features and outcomes of in-hospital sudden cardiac death (SCD) in order to determine the predictors of survival. Methods The clinical data of 69 patients with cardiac arrest hospitalized from January 2008 through December 2010 were retrospectively analyzed.Information on genders,age,types of arrhythmia was collected and further analyzed to determine these factors associated with the occurrence and outcomes of in-hospital cardiac arrest. Results The overall incidence of SCD was 47.3 / 100 000 per year and 17.4％ of them.survived at discharge.The occurrence rate was higher in male than that in female (66.7％ vs.33.3％,P ＜0.01 ),whereas difference in gender did not affect the discharge rate ( P ＞ 0.05 ). Survivors from in-hospital cardiac arrest were significantly younger than non-survivors (man:62.57 ± 12.83 years vs.75.56 ± 10.55 years; women:60.36 ± 13.24years vs.69.53 ± 11.72 years,P ＜ O.01 ).From 62 ECG records of SCD patients,the incidence of nonshockable rhythms was higher than that of shockable rhythms.Compare to the non-shockable rhythms,the shockable rhythms brought a higher rate of restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) (54.5％ vs.24.5％,P ＜0.05),whereas survival rates at discharge between two groups were not statistically different ( 18.2％ vs.18.4％,P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusions Non-shockable rhythms were more common in patients suffering from in-hospital cardiac arrest.Although defibrillation treatment contributed benefit to ROSC among patients with ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia,high-quality CPR and post-cardiac arrest care may play a more critical role in the outcomes of in-hospital sudden cardiac death.

Objective To explore the clinic value and efficacy of color Doppler ultrasound guided percutaneous microwave/radiorequency thermoablation for secondary hyperparathyroidism. Methods Fifty-six cases of secondary hyperparathyroidism who came from nephrology department of Beijing Friendship Hospital in the period of September 2012 to September 2013 were treated by color Doppler ultrasound guided percutaneous microwave/radiorequency thermoablation. One hundred and thirty-eight glands underwent this treatment and were evaluated by contrast enhanced ultrasound before, during and after operation. The levels of serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) were measured before and at 1 week, 1 month, 6 months and 1 year after treatment. Results The whole 56 cases achieved 1 month follow-up and 34 cases and 12 cases achieved 6 months and 1 year follow-up, respectively. Two special cases had been excluded. The PTH levels of 54 cases were signiifcantly different between after and before treatment [(369.5±183.4) ng/L vs (1321.6±471.4) ng/L, t=10.727, P=0.000]. The PTH levels continued to fall at the ifrst week after treatment, but there was no statistical signiifcance between the ifrst week and the ifrst day after treatment [(324.6±172.8) ng/L vs (369.5±183.4) ng/L], while there was signiifcantly different between the ifrst week after treatment and before treatment [(324.6±172.8) ng/L vs (1321.6±471.4) ng/L, t=9.364, P=0.000]. The PTH levels increased from (324.6±172.8) ng/L to (332.5±164.9) ng/L at 1 week and 1 month after ablation, while there was no signiifcant difference.But there is signiifcantly different between 1 month after treatment and before treatment (t=11.348, P=0.000). The PTH level at 6 months after treatment [(205.2±136.3) ng/L] and 1 year after treatment [(177.1±171.5) ng/L] had signiifcant difference compared with the value before treatment (t=8.737, P=0.000; t=7.655, P=0.017). Conclusion Color Doppler ultrasound guided percutaneous microwave/radiorequency thermoablation can be considered as a feasible and effective nonsurgical alternative treatment for secondary hyperparathyroidism patients.

Objective To investigate the possibility of microsatellite alteration (MA) in diagnosis of bladder cancer of Chinese people, and find the better panel which will be used in clinic. Methods A total of 6 and 10microsatellite markers were chosen, PCR-SSLP silver staining assay was performed in 31 and 32 bladder cancers tissue,exfoliate cells in urine and 10, 15 non-bladder cancers exfoliate cells in urine, respectively. Results MA (+) was found in 28 out of 31, 30 out of 32 bladder cancers, and the sensitivity was 90.3%, 93.7% respectively. The MA of urine sediment of 25 non-bladder cancers was negative, and the specificity was 100%. The cytology was carried out among 19 out of 31, 20 out of 32 bladder cancers at the same time, 2 cases ( 10.3 %) and 3 cases ( 15 % ) were found cancer positive, and the sensitivity is significantly lower than that by the analysis of MA in exfoliated cells. Conclusion MA was not associated with grade and stage of the bladder cancer. MA assay is a sensitive and effective method for the early detection of bladder cancer and post-operation surveillance.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of early alterations of carotid arterial intima-media thickness (IMT) and elastic function in patients with hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) using ultrasound radio-frequency technique.Methods 48 patients (triglyceride value ≥ 1.8 mmol/L) were chosen as HTG group.Quantitative intimamedia thickness (QIMT) and quantitative arterial stiffness (QAS) techniques were used to observe the alterations of carotid arterial IMT and elastic index,including diameter of carotid artery (D),distensibility coefficient (DC),compliance coefficient (CC),elasticity coefficient (α),elasticity coefficient (β) and pulse wave velocity (PWV).50 healthy subjects were recruited in control group.Differences of the above-mentioned parameters were analyzed,as well as the elastic index connections between the two groups.Results IMT,α,β,and PWV index of bilateral carotid arteries in HTG group was higher than that of the control group,while the DC and CC index was lower,and the differences was statistically significant (P＜0.05).Within the groups there were differences between the elastic indexes of bilateral carotid arteries.In control group and the HTG group:CCL＞CCR,αL＞αR,βL＞βR,PWVL＞PWVR.CC was negatively correlated to α,β and PWV (P＜0.05).Meanwhile,there was positive correlation among α,β and PWV (P＜0.05).The differences of D between two groups had no statistical significance (P＞0.05).Conclusions The abnormity of arterial occurs earlier than the morphological change,while the ultrasound radio-frequency technique can provide information of earlier alteration of common carotid arteries structure and elastic function in patients with HTG,which is a significant method of testing early alteration of carotid elastic in patients with HTG.

Objective To explore the early diagnosis, option of the surgical procedures, preven-tion and treatment of the complications in patients with pancreatic trauma.Methods All patients with pancreatic trauma during the past 20 years were studied retrospectively in respect of sex, age, cause of injury, grade by AAST, style of operation, therapeutic efficacy, complications and factors for death etc.Statistical analysis was made with Chi-square test.Results In all 148 cases of the present series, 132 underwent surgical interventions including simple suture or external drainage alone, distal pancre-atectomy, distal pancreaticojejunostomy or other internal drainage, diverticularization, Whipple's pro-cedure, and Damage Control Surgery (DCS) etc.Postoperative morbidity was 27.83% with a signifi-cant difference of the incidence of pancreatic fistula between pancreas grade Ⅲ-Ⅴ injuries and grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ(P＜0.01).The mortality rate was 11.49%.The cause of the deaths was mainly massive bleed-ing due to severe associated injuries(76.47%).Among various grades, the difference of the mortality was not significant (P＞0.05).Conclusion To improve the survival rate, it is important to control massive hemorrhage from associated injuries precedes dealing with pancreas trauma.Selection of surgi-cal procedures should be based on whether the main duct is injured.The removing of devitalized tis-sue, adequate external and internal drainage are essential for treatment of pancreatic injuries.Early recognition of pancreatic injury and correct choice of surgical procedures may obviously decrease the in-cidence of postoperative complications.
