Objective To evaluate the effects of percutaneous long sheath aspiration embolectomy for the treament of acute superior mesenteric artery embolism. Methods 7 cases (atrial fibrillation 4 cases; left atrium myxoma 2 cases and chronic mesenteric ischemia 1 cases) of acute measenteric artery embolism were treated with percutaneous emlolectomy using long sheath (Optimed, Germany) aspiration. Results Successful recanalizations were observed in all of the 7 cases of superior mesenteric arteries. 5 cases out of the 7 cases recovery; 1 case underwent laparotomy; 1 case died in 24 hours. Conclusions Percutaneous embolectomy using long sheath aspiration is a sample and effective method for the treatment of acute superior mesenteric artery embolism.

Objective To investigate the effect of liraglutide and metformin hydrochioride on overweight diabetic patients because of poor glycemic control.Methods Forty-four overweight patients with poor glycemic control were randomly divided to the control group,the liraglutide group and the metformin hydrochioride group.Patients in control group were given diet and exercise control,in liraglutide group and the metformin hydrochioride group were given subcutaneous injection liraglutide,metformin hydrochioride oral treatment respectively for 12 weeks.Body mass index(BMI),fasting blood glucose (FBG),2-hour postprandial blood glucose (2 hPBG) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were measured.Results Compared with pretreatment,FBG,2 hPBG and HbA1c of patients in liraglutide group and metformin hydrochioride group were lower after treatment,and there was significant difference between the two group and the control group after treatment(P ＜ 0.05).BMI of patients in liraglutide group was (24.61 ± 3.47) kg/m2,lower than of the control group((25.37 ± 4.70) kg/m2,P ＜ 0.05).2 hPBG of patients in the liraglutide group was (7.13 ± 3.85)mtmol/L,lower than that of the metformin hydrochioride group ((8.03 ± 4.33) mtmol/L,P ＜ 0.05).FBG level in metformin hydrochioride group ((6.31 ± 3.45) mmol/L) was lower than that of the liraglutide group ((6.98±2.97) mmol/L),but the difference was not statistically significant(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Liraglutide and metformin hydrochioride treatment can effectively reduce weight and blood sugar of the overweight diabetics.The effect of liraglutide to reduce postprandial blood glucose and weight of the patient is more significant than of metformin hydrochioride.

Objective: To expatiate the application of int er ventional treatment in emergency management of life-threatening bleeding follow ing maxillofacial and jugular trauma. Method : Three cases of ma xillofacial and jugular serious injury with life threatening bleeding were treat ed by external carotid arteriography and embolization at branch of external car otid artery. Result:External carotid arteriography and emboliza tion could effectively stop life-threatening bleeding of maxillofacial and jugu lar serious injury. Preoperation arteriography could define diagnosis and direc t the treatment. 2 cases survived after treatment and 1 died of blood lose durin g treatment. Conclusion:External carotid arteriography and embo lization is effective in the treatment of maxillofacial and jugular serious inj ury with life-threatening bleeding.

Objective To explore the influencing factors during long-distance transportation and medical rescue of trauma patients in Wenchuan earthquake. Methods After Wenchuan earthquake, based on prehospital care scheme, we organized medical coordinators and psychologically trained medical staff in emergency medicine, cardiovascular medicine and logistics to transport trauma patients and pro-vide early psychological intervention during whole course of transportation. Results A total of 162 trauma patients were safely transported from Sichuan province to Chongqing relying on prehospital care scheme, equipment supplies, integrated rescue mode and psychological intervention during the transporta-tion. Conclusions Medical rescue mode and psychological intervention indicate that it is necessary to conduct psychological intervention for better transportation of patients for further medical treatments. In the meantime, we should establish medical rescue system for coping with psychological stress, improve rescue preparation scheme and professional medical care team for long-distance transportation and guaran-tee sufficient medical supplies in station hospitals.

We aimed to make comprehensive cancer care guidelines of China according to American guidelines of National Comprehensive Cancer Network,Ametican Society of Clinical Oncology and Oncology Nursing Society,and to guide clinical nurses to study and draw lessons from foreign latest guidelines,and combined with the actual situation in our country.The results of study and application were advantageous to the nursing profession,the security and interests of the patients.We should develop comprehensive cancer care guidelines of our country,eventually make nursing practice guide system of China constantly improve and perfect.

The introduction of problem-based learning techniques into the teaching of anatomy has been subject to great contro- versies.This paper debates the rationale behind this concept using the example of the curriculum of Harvard Medical School.The anatomy curriculum is covered during the eight first weeks of the medical studies,and is an original combination of discussions of clinical cases in small groups,and work in gross anatomy,histology and radiology laboratories.The lectures are reduced to the minimum and emphasize general concepts.

The growth and invasion of ectopic endometrium in endometriosis depends on hormone which will work in combination with its receptors.This review introduces the construction,function,gene,subtypes of estrogen receptor and progesterone receptor and their expressions in eutopic and ectopic endometrium,and explores their significance in the genesis,development,treatment and prognosis of endometriosis.

Background Conventional chemical method to fix the entire eyeball results in the edema of retinal nerve fiber layer and therefore influent the evaluation of tissue structure.Research showed that microwave irradiation can avoid this phenomenon. Objective This study was to investigate the appropriate energy and time duration of microwave irradiation for fixation of rabbit eyes specimen and compare the influence of different fixation methods on retinal structure. Methods Twenty-two New Zealand white rabbits were sacrificed by using venous air embolism.The eyeballs were enucleated from the rabbits and immersed in chemical reagents with glacial acetic acid,methyl aldehyde and chloroform for 2 days as the control group.The eyeballs were immersed in 400 ml physiological balance solution immediately,and then were fixed by microwave irradiation for 80,160,240 and 320 seconds under the lower power as the microwave irradiation groups.In the microwave irradiation+chemical fixation group,the specimens were immersed in chemical reagents for 1-2 hours after the microwave radiation.The morphology of retinal structure was examined and area of retinal detachment was calculated by hemotoxylin and eosin staining under the light microscope. Results A better fixation effect was obtained in the retinal section of microwave radiation for 240 seconds in comparison with that of the traditional chemical reagent fixation method for 2 days.The retina detachment ratio was 16.3%±11.5% for simple microwave method,50.0%±24.5% for chemical method,and 6.7%±7.8% for microwave+chemical method.showing a significant difference among 3 groups(F=32.43,P=0.000).Retinal staining was clear and retinal structure was almost normal in the specimens of microwave+chemical fixation group with 200-240 seeonds microwave irradiation and 1-2 hours chemical fixation. Conclusion Microwave irradiation method is a more ideal way for the fixation of retina because of taking short duration,lower toxicity and better staining.The combination of microwave radiation and chemical reagents can acquire an excellent quality of retinal section.

Objective: This paper summarized the research status and progress of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and sonodynam-ic therapy (SDT), and we hope this can be a useful reference for clinics or research. Methods: In this review we expound their molecular mechanisms in detail and classify the photosensitizer and sonosensitizer, indicate their applications for the cancer treatment and summarize their new treating modes. PDT and SDT have huge potential for cancer treatment. Results: PDT and SDT have achieved a certain results, whereas there are still many problems, such as tissue oxygen content, new photosensitizer and sonosensitizer, drug dosage and mechanisms of SDT. Conclusions: PDT and SDT, which are new methods for treating cancer, have shown a good application prospect. But PDT has not been universal in clinics and SDT is still in the experiment stage.
