Objective The purpose of our study is to evaluate high-resolution 3.0 T MRI in the identification of finding in patients with a clinical diagnosis of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). Methods From June 2008 to May 2010, 54 consecutive patients with clinically diagnostic FAI received an high-resolution 3.0 T MR scan (Siemens AG, Germany), including 38 males and 16 females with an average age of 33.5 years (range, 18-50). All cases were assigned into 3 groups according to the morphology changes of the hip joint: Group Cum, Group Pincer, and Group Normal. The frequency of abnormal signs in 3 groups was calculated. Nonparametric tests by SPSS were used in data analysis. Results Forty-four patients (81.5%, 44/54) showed acetabular labrum disorders, 35 patients (64.8%, 35/54) showed femoral-acetabular cartilage lesions on MRI, 19 patients (35.2%, 19/54) showed arthroedema, 14 patients (25.9%, 14/54) showed femoralacetabular bone disorders, 4 patients (7.4%, 4/54) showed articular capsule and ligaments disorders. There was no statistically significant in the frequency of abnormal sign in MR1 between male and female. The frequency of acetabular labrum disorders, femoral-acetabular cartilage lesions and femoral-acetabular bone lesions in Group Cum was more than that of Group Pincer and Group Normal. The frequency of acetabular labrum disorders was the most disorders (Group Cum 88.5%, Group Pincer 77.8%, Group Normal 70.0%),next high-frequency was acetabular cartilage lesions. Conclusion 3.0 T MRI provides a useful assessment of patients in whom a FAI is clinically diagnosed. A high-resolution, nonarthrographic technique can provide preoperative information. Acetabular labrum disorders and femoral-acetabular cartilage lesions maybe characterized as an earlier period of FAI.

Objective:To explore the effects of problem-solving based telephone and texting interventions for medication adherence of discharged patients with schizophrenia.Method:A total of 178 discharged patients with schizophrenia were randomly assigned to telephone intervention (TI)group (n =63),text-messaging intervention (TMI)group (n =61),and control group (n =54).All patients were routinely treated,and patients in TI and TMI groups were given problem-solving based interventions.Medication adherence and psychotic symptoms were as-sessed by pill counting and the Positive and Negative Symptom Scale (PANSS)at baseline and the first,third, sixth,ninth and twelfth month.Results:Overall,patients with TI had higher medication adherence than those with TMI (P <0.001),and patients with TMI had higher medication adherence than that in control group (P <0.001). PANSS scores in TI and TMI groups were not significantly different (P >0.05),but significantly lower than control group (P <0.01).There was higher rate of re-admission in control group in comparison with TI and TMI groups (9.3% vs.[0% and 1.6%],P <0.05).Conclusion:It suggests that problem-solving based telephone and texting interventions are effective for improving medication adherence in patients with schizophrenia after their discharge from hospital,so as to reducing psychotic symptoms and lowering re-hospitalization risk.In comparison with TMI, TI has a better effect in improving medication adherence.

Objective To compare the efficacy of three kinds of neurolytic celiac plexus block (NCPB) in the patients with upper abdominal cancer pain.Methods Sixty-seven patients of both sexes,with upper abdominal cancer,aged 45-64 yr,weighing 52-69 kg,were randomly divided into 3 groups using a random number table:single-needle NCPB using crura of diaphragm space approach group (group S,n =23),double-needle NCPB via an anterior and posterior crura of diaphragm space approach group (group D,n =22),and continuous NCPB via crura of diaphragm space approach group (group C,n =22).In S and D groups,NCPB was performed with single injection of anhydrous alcohol 25-30 ml after CT-guided successful single and double punctures,respectively.In group C,a catheter was inserted into the crura of diaphragm space and then anhydrous alcohol 25-30 ml was injected via the catheter once a day for 3 consecutive days to perform NCPB.Before treatment,at 1 week after treatment,1,2,4 and 6 months after treatment,the daily consumption of morphine and VAS score were recorded.The therapeutic efficacy was evaluated using VAS weighted value calculation.The development of adverse effects such as diarrhea,hypotension,dysuria and damage to nerves was recorded.Results Compared with S or D groups,the daily consumption of morphine was significantly decreased at 4-6 months after treatment,the rate of effective treatment was increased at 4-6 months after treatment,and the incidence of hypotension was decreased in group C.The incidence of diarrhea was significantly higher in D and C groups than in group S.Conclusion For the patients with upper abdominal cancer pain,continuous NCPB via crura ofdiaphragm space approach provides perfect efficacy with fewer adverse reactions,and the efficacy is better than that of single-needle NCPB using crura of diaphragm space approach or double-needle NCPB via an anterior and posterior crura of diaphragm space approach.

Objective To investigate the expression of p57kip2 and cyclin D1 in human brain glioma and its clinical significance.Methods The expression of p57kip2 and cyclin D1 was detected by SP immunohistochemical technique in brain glioma(n=55) and normal brain tissues(n=10).Results Positive rate of p57kip2 protein in the 55 cases of brain glioma was 38.2%(21/55),significantly lower than that in normal brain tissues(80%,P

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for promoting rational use of vancomycin in the clinic. METHODS:Referring to vancomycin instruction,Guiding Principles for Clinical Use of Antibacterials (2015 edition) and Chinese Expert Consensus on Clinical Use of Vancomycin (2011 edition),720 inpatient medical records of vancomycin were collected from our hospital during Jan. 2013-Dec. 2014,and then drug use of those inpatients were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS:Among 720 cases,male (428 cases)was more than female(292 cases),and most of them aged 41-65(45.83%). There were 50 cases of prophylactic drug use(6.94%)and 670 cases of therapeutic drug use(93.06%). The patients came from 36 departments. Among 720 cases,the dose of 19 cases were higher than 2 g/d,and there were 13 ADR cases(1.81%). Among 670 cases of therapeutic drug use,587 cases of microbiological samples (87.61%) were detected,and other antibacterials were used in 522 cases additionally (77.91%). DUI of vancomycin was equal to 0.96 in 549 cases no younger than 18 years old of herapeutic drug use. There were 240 cases of unsuit-able drug use (33.33%) in total,including 192 cases of unsuitable solvent (26.67%),28 cases of unsuitable usage and dosage (3.89%)and 20 cases of unsuitable drug combination(2.78%). CONCLUSIONS:The use of vancomycin in our hospital is basi-cally rational;vancomycin is widely used in departments;drug combination is a common phenomenon;the inspection rate of mi-crobiological samples is qualified;no drug abuse is found. However,there still is inappropriate use in the clinic. It is recommended to strengthen special evaluation and training about rational use of vancomycin,and further standardize monitoring for vancomycin use so as to guarantee the safety of drug use.

OBJECTIVE:To study the current situation and developing trend of the antidiabetics used in Guangdong re?gion.METHODS:The antidiabetics used in44hospitals in Guangdong region during the period2000～2003were analysed concerning the kinds of drug,sum of money for consumption and frequency of drug use.RESULTS:The sum of money for consumption of antidiabetics increased year by year so did its proportion in sum of money for consumption of total drug.Among them,consumption of insulin increased very quickly and oral antidiabetics assumed a tendency of increase as well.CONCLUSI_ ON:The variety of insulin is stable and new oral antidiabetics is going into market occasionally in this region,but frequency of use is primary to sulfonylurea,biguanides and glycosidase-inhibitors.

Objective To analyze the MRI features of central neurocytoma (CNC),and to improve the diagnostic accuracy of this lesion.Methods The MRI findings of 12 patients with CNC confirmed by surgery and pathology were evaluated retrospectively.All patients underwent contrast-enhanced and uncontrast-enhanced MR scan,and 3 patients also received plain CT scan.Results The lesions of 12 cases were all located in the lateral ventricles of septum pellucidum,which were close to the Monro's foramen.5 lesions located in the right lateral ventricle,5 lesions located in both lateral ventricles with 1 case reached the third ventricle,2 lesions located in the left lateral ventricle with 1 case reached the third ventricle.The mean diameter of the CNC lesions was 4.8 cm (ranged from 2.2 to 7.8 cm).11cases (92％) had vavious degrees of cystic change,8 cases (66.7％) had a spongy or soap bubble appearance and 1 case(8.3％) had completely cystic change.3 cases (25％) had a scalloping appearance on sagittal T1-weighted MRI.The solid part of the tumor was similar to the gray matter in signal intensity,with slightly high signal intensity on T2FLAIR.Among 9 cases with DWI,7 cases showed high signal intensity,1 case showed equal signal intensity,and 1 case showed slightly low signal intensity.On enhanced MRI,the solid part of tumors showed slight to medium (83％) or obvious (17％) enhancement.Conclusion CNC should be first considered when a young adult has a lesion located in the lateral ventricles of septum pellucidum,accompainied by varying degrees of cysts,showed slight to medium enhancement in the solid part of the tumor.

Objective To investigate whether the activation of secretory prophospholipase A2 (sPLA2) plays the role in the pathophysiological mechanism of acute aristolochic acid nephropathy (AAN) in rats. Methods Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups. Model group received decocted Aristolochia Manshuriensis Kom 30 g·kg-1d-1 by gavage for 7 days following tap water in same way for additional 7 days. Control group received only tap water by garage at parallel time. The renal pathological changes were observed at the 4th, 8th and 14th day. The injury of renal tubules and interstitium was observed under light microscope following a semi-quantity grade. The level of Scr was measured to evaluate glomerular function. Urinary N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase (NAG) was tested as renal tubular injury marker. The activity of sPLA2 in serum was detected by manifesting the color of thiols in the substrate. The protein expression of renal cortex and medulla COX-2 was analyzed by Western blot. The metabolic products of pretaglandins (PC, s) including 6-kcto-PGF1α and TXB2 in the plasma and urine were assayed by radioimmunoassay. The ratio of 6-keto-PGF1α/TXB2 was calculated. Results After Aristolochia administration, the tubulointerstitial injury and Scr increased in AA rats and reached the peak at the 8th day, the tubulointerstitial injury index(8.14±2.55 vs 1.50±0.71, P<0.05) and Scr[(0.24±0.10) vs (0.19±0.02) μmol/g, P<0.05] increased significantly in AA rats compared with control group. The activity of sPLA2 (μmol ·min-1·mg-1) in AA group elevated by 1.3-fold compared to control group at 8th day (133.15±17.05 vs 101.3±16.07, P<0.05), while theexpression of COX-2 in renal cortex increased (1.16±0.36 vs 0.69±0.28, P<0.05) with no change in renal medulla. Even though the levels of serum 6-keto-PGF1α and TXB2 did not change obviously in both AA and control group, but urinary levels of 6-keto-PGF1α and TXB2 increased by 2-fold and 3-fold in AA group compared to control group, respectively (all P<0.05), while the ratio of 6-keto-PGF1α/TXB2 decreased significantly (207.53±17.52 vs 296.64±51.31, P<0.05). All of above changes recovered to the control level at the 14th day except the tubulointerstitial injury index. Conclusion Serum sPLA2 is activated in the rots with acute kidney injury induced by aristolochic acid, which accompanied by up-regulated expression of COX-2 in renal cotex and increased the metabolic products of vasoconstrictive PG s in urine. These changes may participate the mechanism of renal peritubular ischemia in AAN.
