Objective To evaluate the effects of blood-lipid report's reformat on outpatients' behavior and knowledge of dyslipidemia therapy.Methods The blood-lipid report was reformatted by adding three tables from the Chinese Guideline on the Prevention and Treatment of Adult Dyslipidemia on its back.The same questionnaire was used twice to evaluate the patients' behavior and knowledge of dyslipidemia therapy before and after reformat.Results Before and after reformat,the rates of correct deterination of their own risk stratification were 26.0% ( 112/430 ) and 26.3% ( 115/438 ) respectively.The awareness rates of Different LDL-C goals among different persons wcre 37.0% (159/430) and 35.8% (157/438).Only 0.7% (2/306) and 1.0% (3/299) of patients knew their blood lipid goals (P =0.557).When the report showed normal blood lipid levels,the percentages of taking lipid-lowering drug were 47.6% ( 230/483 ) and 46.6% ( 216/464 ),20.5% ( 99/483 ) and 19.0% ( 88/464 ) of patients questioned the prescription.Non-medication rates were 31.9% ( 154/483 ) and 34.5% ( 160/464 ) respectively before and after reformat ( P > 0.05 ).For patients requiting lipid-lowering drug therapy by the guideline,treatment rate improved significantly in the low-risk group (13.3% vs.75.0%,P =0.002).Treatment rate slightly increased in the high-risk and very high-risk groups after reformat (54.0% vs.56.8%,62.4% vs.69.0%,P > 0.05 ).Rates of achieving lipid goal showed no change [ 41.5% ( 102/ 245 ) vs.44.5% ( 114/256 ),P > 0.05 ] after reformat,especially among the very high-risk patients [17.9%(12/68) vs.21.6%(11/52),P>0.05].Conclusions The blood-lipid report reformat did not improve the patient behaviors and knowledge of the prevention and treatment of dyslipidemia because of poor treatment rate and medication compliance.The combination of patient education and thorough blood-lipid report reformat may help to increase the attainment rate of dyslipidemia therapy.

Purpose To investigate the value of three-dimensional quantitative measurement of spiral CT in evaluating tumor size and preoperative T stage in stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Materials and Methods The complete data of 125 patients with stage I NSCLC confirmed surgically and pathologically were compared in terms of maximum tumor diameter and T stage analysis by means of three-dimensional quantitative CT measurement, two-dimensional measurement and general pathology measurement. Results The mean maximum tumor diameter of these 125 patients measured by quantitative three-dimensional CT measurement, two-dimensional measurement and general pathology measurement were (26.21±8.14) mm, (27.03±9.90) mm and (25.60±9.31) mm, respectively. The difference in mean maximum tumor diameter by two-dimensional measurement and three-dimensional quantitative measurement was significant, and remained so when two-dimensional measurement and pathology measurement was compared (t=2.377, P<0.05;t=2.961, P<0.01), but that between three-dimensional quantitative measurement and pathology measurement was not significant (t=1.281, P>0.05). Bland-Altman analysis showed that three-dimensional quantitative measurement had higher consistency than two-dimensional measurement when compared with the gold standard pathology measurement. When three-dimensional quantitative measurement was taken to be the staging criterion, 20% results (25 cases) obtained by two-dimensional measurement proved to be inconsistent. Conclusion Compared with two-dimensional measurement, quantitative three-dimensional CT measurement can provide more accurate information in maximum tumor diameter and T stage for patients with stage I NSCLC, therefore can be applied as a more accurate criterion in preoperative staging and prognosis of stage I NSCLC.

In this study, a new ileal orthotopic bladder (Urumqi Bladder) modified by our center based on the ileal "W" type orthotopic bladder and Studer bladder was used on 8 patients with invasive bladder cancer. All of patients were male and aged between 54 and 66 years. The history of disease ranged from 1 month to 3 years, including 5 patients with initial onset, 3 patients with ≥2 TURBT history. 6 patients had multiple tumors, tumor size from 0.5 cm to 2.5cm. There were 2 patients with single tumor. Preoperative PET-CT examination showed no distant metastasis and pelvic lymph node enlargement, no urinary tract hydronephrosis, and cystoscopy showed no suspected tumor in the urethra. Preoperative pathological results: high-grade invasive urothelial carcinoma was found in 6 cases and muscular invasive urothelial carcinoma in 2 cases. In 8 patients, 50cm ileum was taken from 15cm away from ileocecum after radical cystectomy, which was crimped clockwise inward from the right end into a nearly circular shape, with 10cm left at the left end. The remaining 40cm ileum was formed into 3 sections of about 13cm each, which were decanted to form a storage capsule. The last 10cm intestinal tube was crossed from the front of sigmoid colon. The end of intestine was anastomosed with the left ureter. The right ureter was anastomosed with the top of the right intestine pouch, and the urethra was anastomosed with the pouch to complete the diversion of urine flow. During 3-12 months of postoperative follow-up, 4 patients had short-term mild urinary incontinence. All had complete urinary control at 12 months. 1 patient still had mild left ureter reflux 12 months after surgery, and the other 7 patients had no ureter reflux. In this group of 8 patients, postoperative excretory cystography showed satisfactory effect of bladder voiding, residual, and bladder capacity. Follow-up review of chest CT, urinary CT and abdominal ultrasound showed no hydronephrosis, and no tumor recurrence or distant metastasis.
