This in a survey of collocation and administration of medical supplies during Wenchuan earthquake. (1) Material utilized for trauma wound: in the early phase after Wenchuan earthquake, lots of trauma patients needed materials for hemostasis and debridement such as gauze,bandage and wooden plate. (2) Material for isolation and protective care: the wound began to be infected with the prolonged heeling, so isolation was needed and plenty of material was reqired for prevention of cross infection at this time, such as disposable isolation gowns. (3)First-aid boxes for transfer; material used for receiving patients from disaster areas at airport; material used for transfering patients from medical care units of disaster areas, and material needed for transfering patients to other provinces by train or by air. Three was a set of 3 first-aid boxes, one for medicine such as adrenalin, atropine, doamine or aramine,other two boxes for suction machine for removal of secretion, ECG monitor and intubation apparatus. According to the experience from the Wenchuan earthquake,we put forth a suggestion that emergency equipments should be divided into A,B,and C categories for reserve in peacetime. Type A is essential equipment including a variety of small appliances and apparatus. Type B is the medicinal substances including first-aid medicine,disinfection agents and so on, which should be replaced regularly in terms expiration date. Type C is consumable stuff. The different combinations between type A and type B or type C can be used in different circumstance for different purpose.

ObjectiveTo compare the performance of color Doppler utrasonography (CDUS) alone,magnetic resonance imagine (MRI) alone, and the combination of the two in the diagnosis of thyroid carcinona (TC). MethodsCDUS and MRI results of 54 focuses of carcinoma in 45 cases diagnosed as TC by postoperative pathological results were reviewed. The sensitivity of CDUS, MRI, and the combination of the two in the diagnosis of TC was compared. ResultsThe sensitivity of CDUS and MRI was 77.78% (42/54)and 81.48%(44/54) respectively. The difference had no statistical significance (P > 0.05 ). The specificity of CDUS and MRI was 88.17% and 92.47% respectively, the positive predictive value was 79.25% and 86.27% respectively,and the negative predictive value was 87.23% and 89.58% respectively. The sensitivity of the combination of CDUS and MRI was 94.44% (51/54). The difference between the combination and CDUS or MRI alone had statistical significance( P <0.05). ConclusionsCDUS has higher detection rate than MRI in microcalcification of TC focus. However, MRI can show more clearly of the peripheral invasion and cervical lymph node metastasis.The combination of the two can improve the accuracy of TC diagnosis.

Objective: To investigate the expression of gluconeogenic enzymes phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and G-6-Pase mRNA of hepatic tissue in rats with intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) and to explore the molecular mechanism of insulin resistance in IUGR rats. Methods: Pregnant rats were randomly divided into 2 groups: a normal group and a model group. hTe normal group were fed with 21% protein forage and the model group with 10% low protein forage to obtain IUGR pup rats. hTe pup rats were introduced to the normal group and the IUGR group prospectively. At 1, 3 and 8 weeks, the body weight, blood glucose, insulin concentration andinsulin resistance index of the pup rats were measured. Expression of PEPCK and G-6-Pase mRNA were detected by RT-PCR. Results: The birth weight of the IUGR group was significantly lower than that of the normal group (P<0.001). The weight of the IUGR group was still lower than that of the normal group at 1, 3 and 8 weeks. There was no significant difference in the blood glucose, insulin level and insulin resistance index between the 2 groups (P>0.05). The hepatic expression of PEPCK and G-6-Pase mRNA in the IUGR group was significantly higher than that of the normal group at 1, 3 and 8 weeks (P<0.01). Conclusion: The significantly increased expression of PEPCK and G-6-Pase mRNA of hepatic tissue in IUGR rats may increase gluconeogenesis, which is probably one of the molecular mechanisms of insulin resistance and diabetes in IUGR.
