A case of familial cold urticaria is reported in a 29-year-old male who showed generalized erythematous macules and papules, finally an urticarial eruption shortly after cold exposure, particularly in cold windy weather with damp. Coincidentally, systemic symptoms such as headache, fever and chills, arthralgia, and conjunctival injection were acompanied. Autosomal dominant inheritance was found on examination of his pedigree in which 11 of 18 rnembers showed similar clinical manifestations. Routme laboratory findings were within normal limits except mild leukocytosis and elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Biopsy specimen from a cold-evoked lesion revealed mild ederna and mild perivascular infiltrations composed of neutrophils, eosinophils and lymphocytes in the derms, Treatments included several widely-used antihistaminics, but turned out to be unsatisfactory.

Tbe presence of certain HPV types in the female genital tract was associated with a number of diseases, including condyloma, cervical, vaginal and vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia and carcinoma. It is generally accepted that these viruses are predominantly sexually transmitted. HPV cannot be cultured in vitro, and immunological tests are inadequate. Indirect evidence of anogenital HPV infection can be obtained through the physical examination and by the presence of characteristic cellular changes associated with viral replication in Pap smear or biopsy specimens. Alternately cervical scrapes can be analyzed by nucleic acid hybridization to directly detect the presence of HPV DNA, Historically, HPV 16 and HPV 18 have been regarded as high risk cancer associated HPVs and HPV types 6, 11, 42, 43 and 44 as low risk HPVs. Subsequently HPV types 31, 33, 34, 35, 45, 51, 52, 56 and 58 have been demonstrated to have and intemediate association with cancer, This study was performed for high and intermediate types HPV DNA detection on cervical carcinoma with Virapap Probe B. HPV DNA were detected 82.3% on cervical carcinoma and 7,1% on control samples. HPV DNA test will be apply as a triage for cervical cancer detecting test.

This study was performed to assess the accuracy of pulsed Doppler echocardiographic(PDE) diagnosis of ventricular septal defect(VSD). 119 children with congenital heart disease, aged 9 months to 17 years, admitted to our hospital for cardiac surgery, were studied. These children had VSD(56), ASD(18), PDA(43), PS(1) and Cortriatrium(1). A specific PDE diagnosis of VSD can be made by following the turbulent VSD jet(TVJ) through the septum, and a PDE diagnosis of VSD was made in 53 out of 56 patients(95%) proven by catheterization and operation. There were two false positive PDE diagnosis of VSD by PDE, were proven to be perimembranous VSD at operation, and 3 children who were classified into subarterial infundibular VSD by PDE, were proven to be perimembranous VSD at operation. PDE seems to be a very useful tool in preoperative evaluation of VSD.

Objective To compare the effect between bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP) and routine drugs treatment to patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome ( OSAHS ) complicated with stroke. Methods Twenty-nine patients with OSAHS complicated with stroke were randomly divided into two groups, 15 cases in the treatment group and 14 cases in the control group. Patients in the treatment group were applied BiPAP and routine drugs including degrading intracranial pressure, promoting blood flow, improving microcirculation. BiPAP were maintained for two months and over 10 hours daily. The control group was executed only routine drugs treatment. Results The difference of apnea hyponea index( AHI) and frequency of below 90% O2 saturation during sleep time between pre-therapy and post treatment was significantly higher in the treatment group(36. 8 ± 10. 7 and 105. 3 ± 17. 9) than in the control group (20. 8 ± 8. 1 and 44. 4 ± 24. 3 ) ( P < 0. 01 ) . The difference of lowest nighttime SaO2 between pre- and post-therapy was significantly higher in the treatment group( - 11. 7 ±8. 1)% than in control group(-2. 0 ± 8. 9) % ( P <0. 01). The difference of neurologic impairment score was significantly higher in the treatment group ( 16. 0 ± 2. 6) than in the control group ( 10. 1 ± 3. 6) ( P < 0. 01 ) . As for whole blood viscosity and red blood cell aggregation index,there was no significant difference between pre- and post-therapy(P> 0. 05). Conclusions BiPAP combined with routine drugs can significantly improve sleep anapnea indexs and neurologic impairment scores in patients with OSAHS complicated with stroke than only drug treatment. Blood rheology's indexs could not obtain amelioration in short period.
