1.5 mm were included for the analysis. The results were compared with catheter coronary artery angiography. Results In all patients, 16-slice CT were performed without complications. 1?267 segments were considered as stenosis by 16-slice CT. With the results of conventional coronary angiography as the golden standard, the sensitivity of 16-slice CT was 75.43% and its specificity was 95.88%. Its positive predicted value was 74.58% while its negative predicted value was 96.01% and its accuracy was 93.05% for stenosis of greater than 50%. Conclusion 16-slice CT provides a good visualization of the coronary tree in most patients, allowing accurate non-invasive detection of significant coronary stenosis.

A dispute about the decreasing-price problem of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has recently arisen. This article analyzes the statistical data of 1995-2011 in China, the results showed that the main responsibility of expensive health care has no direct relationship with the drug price. The price index of TCM rose significantly slower than the medicine prices, the production margins of TCM affected by the material prices has been diminishing since 1995, continuous price reduction will further depress profits of the TCM industry. Considering the pros and cons of raw materials vary greatly in price, decreasing medicine price behavior will force enterprises to use inferior materials in order to maintain corporate profits. The results have the guiding meaning to medicine price management.

OBJECTIVE:
To observe the CT three-dimensional imaging features of the frontal recess region with advanced three-dimensional reconstruction, and develop the real image of the important anatomical structures around the region to conduct surgery.
METHOD:
Thirty patients were undergone spiral CT by 16 line high speed spiral CT, and multiplanar reconstruction images using standard three-dimensional reconstruction protocol on a computer workstation. The structure of the frontal recess, the agger nasi cell and adhere style of the uncinate process were observed. The parameter of the important anatomic structure of frontal recess was measured precisely.
RESULT:
After the reconstruction, we get the three-dimensional model very close to the true state of the nasal cavity-sinuses cell, in which parts of the frontal recess can clearly identify the agger nasi cell, frontal cell and other important structures. In these patients, the height, width and depth of the agger nasi and frontal sinus were (9.45 ± 3.60)mm, (8.08 ± 3.37)mm, (26.98 ± 6.82)mm and (26.86 ± 9.45)mm, respectively.
CONCLUSION
This study tried to develop the standardized techniques and measurements from three-dimensional reconstructed images of the frontal sinus and to ascertain the usefulness of the frontal sinus in identification of patients. The project results in better preoperative patient counselling and in predicting postoperative improvement in clinical status.

OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical effects of colonic dripping with Taihuang liquid (THL) in treating neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (HBE).
METHODSOne hundred and thirty-eight neonates with HBE were randomly assigned to two groups. Conventional treatment and nursing were given to both groups, and THL was given additionally to the observation group by colonic dripping.
RESULTSSignificant differences between the observation group and the control group were shown in frequency of defecation (4.6 +/- 1.3 times/d vs 2.0 +/- 1.1 times/d), daily serum bilirubin reduction (31.5 +/- 10.1 micromol/L vs 23.3 +/- 8.3 micromol/L), and days for normalizing serum bilirubin level (5.6 +/- 3.5 d vs 7.8 +/- 4.1 d, all P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONColonic dripping of THL could promote the excretion of bilirubin, so as to decrease the level of serum bilirubin in neonates with HBE.
