1.Thyroid cancer concurrent with multiple thyroid nodules: an analysis of 23 cases
Chinese Journal of General Surgery 1994;0(05):-
ObjectiveTo study the diagnosis of thyroid cancer concurrent with multiple thyroid nodules.Methods The clinical data of 23 patients of multiple thyroid nodules with thyroid cancer undergoing exploration from May 1988 to December 2000 were analyzed retrospectively.ResultsThe diagnosis of concurrent carcinoma was made preoperatively in 6 cases. 13 out of the 23 patients underwent second operation for the postoperative pathology being malignant. Thyroid cancer was identified concurrent with benign nodules in 20 cases. Conclusion Thyroid cancer when found on the background of multiple thyroid nodules is often coexistant with benign thyroid disease, hence the diagnosis is difficult to make clinically. Second operation is sometimes inevitable when the pathology identified a cancer in preoperatively diagnosed benign nodules.

Objective To analyze the effect of perioperative blood transfusion in orthopedic surgery.Methods A total of 201 patients who underwent an orthopedic surgery in our hospital in October 2015 to September 2016 were reviewed.Hemoglobin concentrations,hematocrit,postoperative hospital stay,infection and other related data were analyzed.Results 90 patients were transfused with blood and in 111 patients were not during orthopedic surgery (massive blood transfusion group including 17 cases;non massive blood transfusion group including 94 cases).Hemoglobin concentrations of transfusion group (103.09±16.37)g/L was lower than the non transfusion group (115.79± 13.68)g/L before liying hospital,postoperative hospitalization time of transfusion group (12.012±8.36) was longer than that of non transfusion group (16.14 ± 10.47)days.Postoperative infection rate in non transfusion group was 1.11%,and in transfusion group was 15.32%,in massive transfusion group is 52.94%.Conclusion Perioperative blood transfusion is not conducive to the recovery of hemoglobin level patients in orthopedic surgery,prolong hospital stay and increase the rate of infection after surgery.Perioperative blood transfusion makes it difficult to support the outcome of the disease

Objective To investigate the prevalence of H.Pylori infection and antibiotic resistance in patients with peptic ulcer.Methods A retrospective analysis of 429 endoscopy and H.Pylori culture results in the First People's Hospital of Hangzhou from 2012 to 2013 was conducted.The rate of H.Pylori infection in patients with peptic ulcer, and the resistance rates of H.Pylori to metronidazole, levofloxacin, clarithromycin,amoxicillin, gentamicin, furazolidone were analysed.Results The positive rate of H.Pylori in people with peptic ulcer was 53.1% (228/429).The resistance rates to metronidazole, levofloxacin, clarithromycin,amoxicillin, gentamicin and furazolidone were 94.7% (216/228), 18.9% (43/228), 18.9% (43/228), 0, 0 and 0.Double antibacterial resistant rates of metronidazole and clarithromycin, metronidazole and levofloxacin were 18.0% (41/228) and 17.1% (39/228).Triple antibacterial resistant percentage of levofloxacin + metronidazole + clarithromycin was 8.3% (19/228).The resistance rate of clarithromycin in 43 patients who were also resistant to levofloxacin was 46.5% (20/43), while the resistance rate of clarithromycin in 185 patients who were also sensitive to levofloxacin was 12.4% (23/185)with significant difference(x2 =26.480,P =0.000).A positive association between the resistance to levofloxacin and to clarithromycin was found.Conclusion The H.Pylori infection is closely related to the occurrence of peptic ulcer.Without the basis of culture results in patients with H.Pylori positive, amoxicillin, gentamicin and furazolidone could be the first choices in clinical,because of their low resistance rates.Clarithromycin can be used as an alternative.

In recent years,zebrafish has become ideal animal models of human disease with its unique characteristics,such as small body,fecundity,fast development and growth,embryo transparency,and so on.Furthermore,the structure and gene of zebrafish eye are highly conservative with human eye,which make ophthalmologists to pay close attentions to zebrafish.This review focused on the studies and applications on zebrafish embryonic development of eyes,and also the applications of currently used genetic regulation and editing techniques and tools.

AIM: To observe the effect of compound anisodine injection combined with yi-qi-tong-luo acupuncture, hot compress and massage for blepharospasm.
METHODS: Selected in our hospital, 60 cases (78 eyes) with blepharospasm were randomly divided into two groups, 30 cases 39 eyes in each group. The observation group were treated with compound anisodine injection combined with yi - qi - tong - luo acupuncture treatment, and supplemented by hot compress and massage, while the control group only with compound anisodine injection. We compared the treatment effect of the two groups.
RESULTS: In the observation group, 38 eyes were clinically effective, 1 eye was invalid, 35 eyes marked, the total effective rate was 97%, the markedly effective rate was 90%; in control group, 32 eyes were the clinically effective, 7 eyes invalid, 23 eyes marked, the total effective rate was 82%, the markedly effective rate was 59%; the total effective rate and markedly effective rate of observation group were higher than those of the control group with statistical difference (P<0. 05). The recurrence rates of the two groups were 5% and 34%, respectively, and the recurrence rate of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P <0. 05).
CONCLUSION: The compound anisodine injection combined with yi - qi - tong - luo acupuncture, hot compress and massage for blepharospasm, can significantly improve the efficiency of treatment, with higher effective rate and lower recurrence rate, compared with using compound anisodine alone.

Objective Wether preoperative freezing plus traditional operative resection would improve 5 year survival of patient with esophageal cancer was studied. Methods 50 patients admitted for esophageal cancer were divided equally at random.The treatment group (n=25) received cryotherapy before traditional surgery.The rest,without pretreatment,had surgery as controls.Their 1,3,5 year survival rates were contrasted. Results With pretreatment the 1,3,5 year survival rate reached 92,76,56 percent respectively,while that of the controls attained 80,40,and 28 percent accordingly.Statistically significant difference in survival did exist between groups by the end of 3 and 5 years after the combined therapy, yet no difference was detected within 1 year. Conclusion Preoperative cryotherapy could reduce the possibility of lymphatic metastasis,iatrogenic spread during operation and improve patient’ s immunological functions and life span.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of DCE-MRI and breast MR reporting and data system(BI-RADS-MR)in differentiation of breast lesions. Methods Seventy-five patients with 75 pathological-confirmed breast lesions underwent DCE-MRI before treatment and DCE-MRI quantitative analysis. Two senior doc-tors assessed the imaging features blindly by BI-RADS-MR. The pathology results were set as a gold standard. The receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)interpretation of two physician′s curve analysis was used to evaluate the sensitivity,specificity of BI-RADS classification. Results According to the BI-RADS MR score,38 breast cancer patients were rated as 1 case in grade Ⅰ,0 case in grade Ⅱ,4 cases in gradeⅢ,13 cases in gradeⅣ,20 cases in grade V;37 breast benign tumors were rated as 17 cases in grade Ⅰ,5 cases in grade Ⅱ,12 cases in gradeⅢ,3 cases in gradeⅣandⅤ0 cases. The statistical difference of Tpeak,S max,K1 between benign and malig-nant breast tumors were significant(P<0.05). On ROC,the area under the curve was 0.940,95%confidence in-terval was from 0.887 to 0.994. The sensitivity of BI-RADS in the diagnosis of breast cancer was 94.59%and speci-ficity was 92.11%. Conclusion DCE-MRI combined with BI-RADS-MR classification in diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors has an important value and can improve diagnosis and differential diagnosis level.
