[Objective] To summarize ZHANG Xichun's clinical experience on using white tiger and ginseng soup.[Methods] Put ZHANG Xichun's document in order to analyze the effect of ginseng in this part, the treatment of disease should be added in the conditions of the white tiger soup, in the attention to details. [Results] He studied and researched the Shan Han Lun, in combination with his own experience, thought that the ginseng added into the white tiger soup, not only sweating or emesis or purgation, bus also feeble pulse. Should be taken into account the composite factors such as age and physical etc. And must join ginseng in the post partum. Put forward the theory of the Shaoyin of febrile disease. Breaking the postpartum avoid is used for cold. Remove the heat of Yangming to treat lung disease. Treat the febrile disease of pregnancy. He also thought Yangming and feeble pulse should use white tiger and ginseng soup to treat the pulse, then to purge. He was carefully to ask patients'illness. He combined symptoms with pulse condition, comprehensive analysis to both pulse manifestation and symptoms, paid attention to decocting medicine and taking medicine also. [Conclusion] White tiger and ginseng soup mostly treats the cold or warm into the Yangming disease. The basic pathogenesis is the heat in Yangming. Break the cold attack, warm disease from those. To promote the clinical application of white tiger and ginseng soup, through the clinical details in order to improve curative effect, significant contribution to the clinical application of white tiger and ginseng soup.

Objective To explore the diagnosis and treatment of bronchogenic cyst in the abdomen.Methods Clinical data of 7 cases with abdominal bronchogenic cyst in the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University from October 2001 to February 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.Results Of the 7 patients,5 were male and 2 were female aging from 36 to 50 years with a median age of 37 years.Two cases were complaining for upper abdominal pain,5 cases were asymptomatic.Ultrasonography revealed hypoechoic or anechoic mass.Color doppler flow imaging showed no blood flow.Contrast-enhanced CT scans showed no obvious enhancement in 6 out of 7 cases,all patients underwent cystectomy successfully.Cysts were of unilocular in 6 cases and multilocular in one.Bronchogenic cysts were diagnosed by pathology in all 7 cases.Six patients were followed up from 1 month to 6 years with no recurrence.Conclusions Abdominal bronchogenic cyst is benign and postoperative prognosis is very good.

Objective To assess the effect of anticoagulant drugs,elastic compression stockings(ECS)and(Daflon) on the prevetion of the post-thrombotic syndrome(PTS).Methods Fifty-eight deep venous(thrombosis)(DVT) patients were divided into control group and treatment group I and II.The control group (n=15) did not take anticoagulant drugs or the time of anticoagulant drug administration was less than 1 month,and the use of(ECS) was less than 3 months.The treatment group I(n=24) took warfarin for 6 months and the ECS were used in the follow-up time;the treatment group II(n=19),besides warfarin therapy and ECS,took Daflon for 12 months.All the patients were followed up,the general conditions were assessed with clinical score,and the therapeatic results of the 3 groups were assessed.Results The rate of PTS occurrence in control group was significantly higher than that in treatment group 1 and treatment group 2.At 6 months,the clinical score of treatment groups 1 and 2 was significantly lower than that of control group.At 1 and 1.5 years after discharge,the clinical score of treatment group 2 was significantly lower than that of treatment group 1.Conclusions The long-term comprehensive and systemic therapy(including warfarin,ECS and daflon) for DVT could prevent PTS.

Objective To investigate the interference of thyroglobulin antibodies ( TgAb ) on the measurement of thyroglobulin ( Tg) by 2 chemiluminescence immunoassays ( CLIAs) .Methods Data of 199 315 individuals with determined TgAb and Tg , including physical checkup subjects , differentiated thyroid carcinoma ( DTC) patients and patients with other diseases , were retrospectively collected in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from November 2012 to April 2015.The correlation between serum Tg level and serum TgAb concentration was analyzed and the positive rate of TgAb in physical checkup subjects was calculated.Furthermore, 290 serum samples with different TgAb concentration were applied in the recovery test by adding in confirmed serum Tg .The correlation between the recovery of confirmed serum Tg and TgAb concentrations was evaluated using Pearson correlation analysis .Results The serum Tg was all decreased with the elevated TgAb concentration in each group of subjects .The positive rate of TgAb was 10.84%(8 416/77 634) in physical checkup subjects .It was higher in females than in males and was increased with age.Recovery test showed that the average recoveries of confirmed serum Tg in TgAb-negative serum were 107.28%(86.30%-117.60%) and 107.94% (85.60%-124.10%) respectively in Roche and Beckman systems.But in TgAb-positive serum samples , the average recoveries in Roche and Beckman systems were 88.59% (35.85% -141.53%) and 95.77% (36.48% -131.78%) respectively, and 12.63%(24/190) and 13.68%(26/190) samples displayed a recovery less than 80%.The recovery rate of confirmed serum Tg showed a significantly negative correlation with elevated TgAb concentration , with r=-0.239 (P=0.001) in Roche and r=-0.251 (P<0.001) in Beckman.Conclusions TgAb-positive serum, especially with high concentration of TgAb , significantly interfered the measurement of Tg .Thus, serum TgAb should be determined together with serum Tg to explore whether there was an interference .To avoid misdiagnosis and inappropriate therapy , clinician should be informed once serum TgAb displayed positive.

Objective:To investigate the CT imaging features of epidural hematoma (EDH) surrounding subdural effusion (satellite effusion sign) and its application value in diagnosis of EDH.Methods:A retrospective analysis of clinical and imaging data of 30 patients with EDH and 122 patients with acute subdural hematoma (SDH), admitted to our hospitals from December 2017 to February 2020, was performed. The frequencies of satellite effusion sign were compared in the two groups, and the differences between the correct diagnosis rate of traditional CT performance and the correct diagnosis rate of traditional CT performance+satellite effusion sign were compared in the two groups; the specific characteristics of satellite effusion sign was clarified and its relations with morphological characteristics and distribution of hematoma were analyzed.Results:Among 30 patients with acute EDH, the occurrence rate of satellite effusion sign was 63.3% (19/30); among 122 patients with acute SDH, the occurrence rate of satellite effusion sign was 2.5% (3/122); the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=67.248, P=0.000). Among the 30 patients with acute EDH, the correct diagnosis rate of traditional CT manifestation was 86.7% (26/30), and the correct diagnosis rate of traditional CT manifestation+satellite effusion sign was 93.3% (28/30), without statistically significance ( χ2=0.185, P=0.667). The length of the satellite effusion sign was (1.1±0.9) cm, ranged from 0.2 cm-3.1 cm; the width was (3.6±2.0) mm, ranged from 1.4 mm-7.5 mm. The incidence of satellite effusion sign in the frontotemporal EDH patients (73.9%) was significantly increased as compared with that in the occipitoparietal EDH patients (28.6%, P<0.05); that of patients with clinically diagnosed cerebral contusion, laceration, cerebral hernia or other severe to extremely severe craniocerebral injuries (22.2%) was significantly reduced as compared with that of patients with mild to moderate craniocerebral injuries (81.0%, P<0.05). Conclusion:Satellite effusion sign is an important new CT sign in the diagnosis of EDH, which is closely related to the locations of hematoma and severities of craniocerebral injury.

OBJECTIVETo study the character of welder's pneumoconiosis on CT, pathology, and lung function.

METHODSTo contrast 185 welder's pneumoconiosis and 115 silicosis on CT, pathology, and clinical characters which were diagnosed between Jan 2008 and Dec 2013. Chest X-ray and lung function of 39 welder's pneumoconiosis patients were followed up after diagnosed 4~6 years later.

RESULTSAverage age and working years of welder's pneumoconiosis were 36.7 and 11.5, less than silicosis patients 58.8 and 22.1, respectively (P<0.05). Of all 185 welder's pneumoconiosis 98.4% were of stage I and no stage III, while in silicosis group stage I, stage II and stage III were 56.5%, 22.6% and 20.9%, respectively. The ratio differences between the two groups were statistically significant,P<0.05. 82.7% of welder's pneumoconiosis patients were observed pathologically moderate or above dust deposition in lung tissue while interstitial fibrosis level was just mild (97.6% patients) or no fibrosis (2.4% patients). By contrast, 60.0% silicosis patients pathologically showed moderate or above dust deposition while 77.8% were of moderate or above fibrosis. CT findings in welder' s pneumoconiosis were diffuse branching linear structure (38.9%), low density consistent size centrilobular micronodules (19.5%), or both (30.8%). Poorly-defined ground-glass attenuation centrilobular micronodules or widely ground glass shadow were observed in 6.4% welder's pneumoconiosis patents. 30.8% patients failed to reach the original stage when 39 welder's pneumoconiosis followed up chest radiograph.

CONCLUSIONChanges in welder's lung caused by welding fume were not only siderosis, but also interstitial fibrosis.
