Objective To analyze the clinical and imaging characteristics of congenital sensorineural hearing loss (CSNHL)children combined with white matter (WM)lesions in order to provide evidence for clinical practice. Methods With referral to the Department of Pediatrics,Peking University First Hospital from November 201 1 to De-cember 201 5,documents of 78 patients of CSNHL combined with WMlesions were collected and analyzed for the clini-cal and imaging characteristics.Results Bilateral severe -profound hearing loss existed in all 78 cases,48.1 %(25 /52 cases)of the patients exhibited gross motor development delay,98.1 %(51 /52 cases)of them had normal cognition development.One hundred percent (61 /61 cases)of patients had abnormal language development.Infection occurring during pregnancy existed in 21 .2%(1 1 /52 cases)of the patients,the premature and smaller for the gestational age in-fants accounted for 28.9% (1 5 /52 cases).The bilateral multiple WMlesions from the brain MRI were in dot to flake sizes with sharp boundary,the intensity of T1 -weighted imaging decreased,T2 -weighted imaging and fluid attenuated inversion recovery increased.Eighty -two point one percent (64 /78 cases)of the patients were found to have the periventricular and subcortical WM involvement.The most frequently affected periventricular region was the posterior horn (91 .9%,68 /74 cases),followed by the anterior horn and temporal horn,and the least with the body involvement. The former three had a combined lesion tendency (55.4% -68.9%).There was an extensive involvement in the sub-cortical WMof parietal,frontal,temporal and occipital lobes respectively(73.5% -88.2%).Subcortical WM involve-ment of multiple lobes was common (accounted for 67.6% -77.9%).The enlargement of bilateral ventricles existed in 37.2%(29 /78 cases)of the patients and cystic changes in the subcortical WM of anterior temporal lobe could be found in 9.0% (7 /78 cases)patients.Calcification in 2 CT cases was reported.Corpus callosum and basal ganglia of all cases were normal.For cases with MRI scans more than once,WMlesions of 96.0%(24 /25 cases)patients became silent or self -restored.Conclusions The clinical presentations of CSNHL combined with WM lesions are mild,not paralleled with their multiple foci.It is considered as demyelination or a delay of myelination.Due to its benign course, it is probably not the contraindication for the cochlear implantation.

Objective: To investigate the application of 3D-printed minimally-invasiveguided template in the treatment of recurrent cer-vical cancer after surgery, assisting interstitial brachytherapy. Methods: From July 2017 to April 2018, a total of 10 patients admitted to Cangzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine in Hebei province with recurrent cervical cancer after radi-cal surgery underwent the 3D-printed customized template-assisted interstitial brachytherapy. According to the specific conditions of patients, different vaginal localization templates were selected for CT simulation localization. The main guidance needle space distribu-tion was designed, and 3D minimally-invasive guidance templates were printed. Then, needles were inserted according to the main guide channel of the template commissioned by medical photosensitive resin. The high-risk clinical target volume (HR-CTV) of 6 Gy/fraction was administered (4 to 6 fractions). Results: Overall, 10 patients were treated with implantation for a total of 52 times. Treat-ment with average scanning CT number for each brachytherapy was (1.58±0.70) times. The average elapsed time for each brachythera-py implant treatment, from plug implant to inserting planting needle satisfactorily with the location of the tumor, was (10.88±2.94) minutes. The mean number of metal needles used was (5.69±1.91) in each brachytherapy. The mean D90 value for high-risk clinical tar-get volume (HR-CTV) was (6.41±0.29) Gy. The cumulative D2cm3 values for the bladder, rectum, and sigmoid colon were (4.75±0.37) Gy, (3.93±0.26) Gy, and (4.33±0.24) Gy, respectively. After 3 months of treatment, the efficacy was evaluated in 8 cases with CR and 2 cas-es with PR. Conclusions: The technology of 3D-printed minimally-invasive guided template shows the advantage of accurate location and superior repeatability in the application of interstitial brachytherapy in treating recurrent cervical cancer after operation, which in-volves less time and insertion needles. The patients had minor aches and few complications. The tumor shrank significantly, which indi-cated a bright future of the technology's clinical application.

In order to provide efficient medical care to atrial fibrillation patients in the community, the Huamu Community Health Service Center in association with its medical consortium, Renji Hospital have developed a novel atrial fibrillation management system. With the collaboration of general practitioners and specialist team from the tertiary hospital, a special clinic for atrial fibrillation has been set up in the community health service center, which is based on the internet technology and the medical consortium platform. This article introduces the development of this novel system and the initial outcome of the measures, to provide a reference for the management of atrial fibrillation patients in the community.

With the continuous improvement and wide application of hospital information, more and more medical equipment is integrated into the hospital information systems, which brings new work contents and challenges for the traditional clinical engineers. This paper reviews and evaluates the current situation of networked medical equipment in the hospital. By applying the ISO 80001 and the MDS(Manufacturer Disclosore Statement for Medical Device Security), the paper puts forward the measures and suggestions for the security management of networked medical equipment.
