Objective To retrospectively compare analysis of two kinds of surgery which were nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy (NSRH) and the traditional radical hysterectomy (RH) for cervical cancer was done to find out the effect on urinary function in postoperative patients. Methods Among 57cervical cancer with clinical stage Ⅰ B1- Ⅱ A 31 cases treated with NSRH,26 cases treated with RH. The postoperative bladder function of the two methods were evaluated, and postoperative recovery of urinary function and postoperative recurrence of tumor were compared. Results The period of indwelling catheter for the postoperative patients with NSRH was (8.5 ± 3.2) days, obviously less than that for traditional RH patients which was ( 12.8 ± 3.8) days. The difference was statistically significant(P < 0.01 ). And two methods of postoperative patients were alive without tumor recurrence and metastasis after 1-4 years follow-up.Conclusions NSRH is better than traditional RH in remaining pelvic autonomic nervous system and improving the early urinary function of postoperative patients of cervical cancer. Otherwise, it doesn't effect the radical cure of tumor.

Objective To compare the executive functions and releases function of hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in patients with single and bipolar depression disorder. Methods 32 single-phase depression (the single group) and 31 bipolar depression patients (the bipolar group) were enrolled in this study. The trail making test A and B and Stroop test (Stroop-C and Stroop-CW) were tested at 0,4 week and 8 week later. In addition,levels of 24-h urine 17-OH cortisol,24-h urine free corticosterone and plasma cortisol were also detrmined. The related results were compared among the two groups and 28 healthycontrol group. Results The TMT-A,TMT-B,Stroop-C and Stroop-CW of the baseline and at 4 week were significantly longer in the depression group than those in the control group(P<0.01,respectively), and the plasma cortisol was also higher in the depression group than that in the control (P<0.01). On baseline, the single group showed significantly longer TMT-B and Stroop-C than those in the bipolar group (P < 0.01, respectively). At 0 week, lower plasma cortisol concentrations did not appear at 12.00 AM, and the midnight deep valley secretion disappeared. However, the midnight deep valley secretion recoveried at 4 week. Conclussion The differences on executive dysfunction and excessive release of HPA-axis function between the single and the bipolar depression should be followed with interest.

Objective:To develop the instrument for the evaluation of the report quality of clinical trials with the modified Delphi method in combination with panel discussions, and assess its validity and reliability. Method: For the development of the instrument, the modified Delphi method in combination with a panel discussion was applied. The consulting panel included pharmacologists, clinical doctors, epidemiologists, statisticians and editors of journal. 30 reports for the therapy of hypertension published in 2000 were selected for the estimation of the instrument of the validity and reliability. The interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to test the reliability. The CONSORT statement was used as a control, and a Kendall correlation was worked out to estimate the validity. Result:A total of 10 specialists took part in the consultation. During the first round of consultation, the expert harmonious coefficient (W) reached to 0. 505 and 19 items were identified. A total of 100 scores were distributed to the 19 items in the second round, and finally the scale was completed. After scoring the 30 reports on hypertension therapy by two readers independently, the interclass correlation coefficients (ICC) of the total score were 0.921,and 0.987 in the introduction part, 0.875 in materials and methods, 0.902 in results, and 0.966 in the discussion and others, P

The clinical and pathological data of 6 patients with urahcal adenocar,cinoma of the bladder admitted in Beijing Luhe Hospital from 1996 to 2016 were analyzed and relevant literature was reviewed.Urachal carcinoma accounted for 0.66% of the bladder cancers admitted at the same period (6/906) and 6/16 of the bladder adenocarcinomas.Painless hematuria was the most common symptom.One patient had extensive metastasis as shown in biopsy and died 6 month after the diagnosis.Two patients underwent partial excision of bladder with no tumor recurrence.One patient underwent partial cystectomy followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy, recurrence occurred one year later and he then received radical cystectomy.Another 2 patients underwent laparoscopic cystectomy and en bloc resection of umbilical ligament and umbilicus, and no recurrence was found in the follow-up for 6 years and 15 months, respectively.Pathological and immunohistochemistry are essential for the diagnosis of urachal adenocarcinoma.As it is not sensitive to radiotherapy or chemotherapy,surgery is the preferred treatment for patients with early stage diseases.Individual anticancer therapy may be the trend of treatment.

Objective To discusse the feasibility and application value of the computer-assisted liver cancer ablation planning based on the three dimensional ultrasound.Methods Forty three-dimensional ultrasound images of 39 patients with 40 tumors'maximum diameter between 21 to 70 mm were collected and then acquired image segmentation and visualzation.The computer-assisted liver cancer ablation planning based on three dimensional ultrasound was comparied with the artificial ablation planning based on two dimensional ultrasound to find out the differences in the success rate,damage rate,time-consuming and the number of insertions between these two methods.Results Compared with the artificial ablation planning based on two dimensional ultrasound,the computer-assisted liver cancer ablation planning had a higher success rate(92.31% vs 53.85%,P =0.000),lower damage rate(7.50% vs 25.00%,P =0.034),shorter time-consuming(44.0 s vs 263.0 s,P =0.000)and less insersion times(3 vs 4,P =0.009).Conclusions The computer-assisted liver cancer ablation planning based on three dimensional ultrasound is more efficient and safety than the traditional way.

Objective To compare the accuracy,convenience and repeatability of 3DUS-US and CT-US image fusion technology based on electromagnetic positioning.Methods A tissue-mimicking phantom was established and used to obtain ultrasound or CT volume images.Two different operators performed 3DUS-US and CT-US image fusion and repeated 10 times,respectively.The success rate,the registration error distance and fusion time of two techniques were recorded and compared between the different operators.Results The ultrasound and CT images of the phantom and its stability could meet the demands of this experiment.3DUS-US and CT-US image fusions were successful.The registration error distance of 3DUS-US image fusion was (1 .70 ± 0.42)mm and fusion time was (76.00 ± 9.99)s,they were obviously superior to CT-US (P = 0.014,P < 0.001 ).There were no significant differences between the two operators in the registration error distance and fusion time of 3DUS-US (P =0.508,P =0.5 1 7).But the registration error distance of CT-US image fusion in experienced operator was lower than the junior (P =0.009),and fusion time had not statistical difference between the two operators (P =0.234).Conclusions The technique of 3DUS-US automatic image fusion based on electromagnetic positioning has advantages of convenience and no experiential dependence comparing with CT-US in the phantom experiments,so it is worthy of being widely popularized in clinical application.

Objective To explore and analyze the influencing factors of family caregiving behavior and protective strategies in children with recurrent lower respiratory tract infection. Methods By reviewing the literature, a self-designed questionnaire for family caregiving behavior related to recurrent lower respiratory tract infection were adopted, including feeding behavior, hand hygiene, environmental factors, time of outdoor activities and family health-seeking behavior. Totally 206 cases with recurrent lower respiratory tract infection (the study group) and 206 cases with acute lower respiratory tract infection (the control group) were included and all cases were investigated by family caregiving behavior questionnaire. The influencing factors of family caregiving behavior of two groups were analyzed and compared. Results The feeding behavior in the study group was worse than that in the control group(χ2=5.14-14.76, P<0.05). There were significant differences in family health-seeking behavior (χ2=4.76, P=0.03), 49.50%(102/206) in the control group,38.8%(80/206)in the study group and passive smoking (χ2=5.70, P=0.02) between two groups. There was no significant difference between two groups in hand hygiene, time of outdoor activities, history of contacting with patients with respiratory tract infection, cold history (χ2=0.48-2.63, P>0.05). Conclusions We should guide parents to establish the right and reasonable family care behavior to effectively enhance children's physical fitness and disease resistance and to avoid exposure to infectious agents and harmful substances, reduce the occurrence of Recurrent Lower Respiratory Tract Infections.
