Objective To evaluate the features of solid-pseudopapiHary tumors of pancreas (SPTP),and to compare with the clinical and pathological findings in order to improve the diagnostic accura-cy.Methods The CT appearances were analyzed retrospectively in 5 patients with pathologically proven SPTP.There were 4 women and 1 man,with the mean age of(16.20±7.49)years.Plain CT and contrasted CT were performed in all 5 cases.Results The tumors of 4 caseswerelocatedinthe head and neck of pan-creats and 1 case was in the body and tail of pancreas.Clear tumor margins were seen in all cases.The mean diameter of these tumors was 5.2 cm(3.0-9.0 cm).Two cases were predominantly composed of cystic por-tions,2 cases were mainly composed of solid portions,and 1 case was composed of similar proportions of solid and cystic portions.Inhomogeneous enhancement Was rewealed in contrasted CT scan,but Was lower in both phase than normal pancreas.Tumor border discontinuous ring-shape calcification was seen in 1 case,dilata-tion of the main pancreatic duct Was demonstrated in 1 case and no metastasis were seen.Conclusions Certain CT features may suggest the diagnosis of SPTP.CT combined with the clinical feature is helpful to the diagnosis.

Objective To study the safety of hypothermia in neonates with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage after asphyxia. Methods Twenty four full term newborns with Apgar score 0.05). Conclusions The results suggest that the selective head cooling in full term newborn has no significant adverse effect on cardiac function, kidney function and coagulation function.

According to the theory of medical ethics,ethical guidelines and moral criterions for medical laboratories are proposed based on the characteristics of the laboratories.Internal management in terms of ethics need to be strengthened,and t the quality of service needs to be improved continually,so as to ensure the rights of patient,protect staffs against professional hazards,and protect the environment.

BACKGROUND: In the treatment of senile distal tibia fractures, locking compression plate (LCP) combined with minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) exerts a satisfactory repair effect, and contributes to the function recovery of lower limbs.OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively analyze the efficacy of LCP combined with MIPO versus intramedullary interlocking nailing for senile distal tibia fractures.METHODS: Fifty-six elderly patients with distal tibia fracture were allotted to minimally invasive and intramedullary nailing groups (n=28 per group), and received the treatment of LCP combined with MIPO and intramedullary interlocking nailing fixation, respectively. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative AOFAS ankle-hind foot scale scores, postoperative ambulation time, healing time, postoperative complications and the excellent and good rate in Johner-Wruhs' criteria were compared between two groups.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The operation time, AOFAS ankle-hind foot scale scores, ambulation time, and healing time in the minimally invasive group were significantly superior to those in the intramedullary nailing group (P < 0.05). (2) The minimally invasive group showed a significantly higher excellent and good rate (96%) than the intramedullary nailing group (79%) (P < 0.05). (3) Compared with the intramedullary nailing group, the incidence of complications was significantly reduced in the minimally invasive group (P < 0.05). (4) Our findings suggest that the combination of LCP and MIPO not only preserves the most of blood supply, and soft tissues surrounding the fracture end as suggested by the BO principle, but also is conducive for fracture healing, and holds good efficacy.

Objective To evaluate the value of amplitude-integrated EEG(aEEG)as a quantitative predictor of neurodevelopment outcome of full-term infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy(HIE).Method EMBASE,Ovid,PubMed,Cochrane Library,Springer Database,CNKI,CSJD and Wanfang Database were searched from when the database was founded to June 30,2010 for studies about aEEG as a predictor of neurodevelopment outcome in full-term infants with HIE.Characteristic information of each articles was extracted and QUADAS items were used to evaluate the qualities of included studies.Meta-disc software 1.4 was used to perform the metaanalysis.All included studies were combined with weighted quantity; sensitivity,specificity,positive likelihood ratio,negative likelihood ratio and their 95 ％ CI were calculated.Results Eleven studies were eligible for the primary meta-analysis and totally 717 subjects were included.There was an overall sensitivity of 86％(95％ CI:81％-89％),specificity of 90％(95％ CI:86％-93％),positive likelihood ratio of 7.70(95％ CI:5.69-10.43),negative likelihood ratio of 0.17(95％ CI:0.13-0.22)and the area under the curve(AUC)of summary receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.95 for aEEG tracings to accurately predict poor outcome of HIE in full term neonates.Conclusion aEEG is a valuable bedside tool for predicting long-term neurodevelopment outcome in term infants with HIE.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristic,level of plasma renin angiotensin (PRA),plas-ma angiotensin Ⅱ(Ang Ⅱ)and plasma aldosterone(Aldo)in the sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (SAHS)patients, and to investigate the association between SAHS and hypertension.Methods The patients were selected for the study who were monitored with polysomnography.They were divided into SAHS group and non-SAHS group according to apea-hypopnea index(AHI),and there were 180 patients in the SAHS group,175 patients in the non-SAHS group. The systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP)and the level of PRA,plasma Ang II and plasma Aldo were compared by variance analysis.Results The gender composition was different between the two groups,and had statistically significant difference(χ2 =16.30,P <0.01).The data of age,body mass index,neck circumference, waistline,DBP,SBP in SAHS group were significantly higher than those in non-SAHS group,and the differences were statistically significant(t =6.84,8.19,9.84,6.63,7.08,5.45,all P <0.01 ).The prevalence of hypertension in SAHS group was 46.58%,which was higher than 18.20% in non-SAHS group,and the difference had statistically significant(χ2 =46.71,P <0.01).The AHI had positive correlation with SBP,DBP,and they had statistically signifi-cant differences (rs =0.162,0.228,all P <0.01).The levels of PRA and plasma Ang Ⅱ were lower in SAHS group than those in non-SAHS group,while the level of plasma Aldo was higher in SAHS group than that in non-SAHS group,and had statistically significant differences(F =15.41,14.21,17.67,all P <0.01).In the SAHS group,the levels of PRA and plasma Ang Ⅱ were lower in hypertension group than those in non-hypertension group,while the level of plasma Aldo was higher in hypertension group than that in non-hypertension group,and had statistically signif-icant differences (F =15.41,14.21,17.67,all P <0.01).Also,the levels of PRA and plasma Ang Ⅱ were lower in SAHS group with hypertension than those in non-SAHS group with hypertension,while the level of plasma Aldo was higher in SAHS group with hypertension than that in non-SAHS group with hypertension,and the differences were sta-tistically significant(F =15.41,14.21,17.67,all P <0.01).Conclusion The occurrence of SAHS is correlated with the gender composition,age,body mass index,neck circumference,waistline,DBP and SBP.In SAHS complica-tions in each system,the highest incidence is hypertension.And the AHI has positive correlation with SBP,DBP,and the difference is significant.In the SAHS group,if the AHI is higher,the risk of hypertension is greater.In the SAHS patients with hypertension,the level of plasma Aldo is significantly elevated,while the levels of PRA and plasma AngⅡ are decreased significantly.
