Objective To evaluate the using and results of computer-aided detection for full-field digital mammography in Chinese women. Methods 934 individuals more than 40 years old from a specific unit in Shenyang city were screened by full-field digital mammography ( Senographe 2000D, GE) . The examination images were diagnosed firstly by the experienced radiologists and then were analyzed by the computer-aided detection system ( R2' Image Checker ) , respectively. The results from these two assays were compared. Results The prompts were generated in 799 out of 1734 normal images, false-positive rate of computer-aided detection ( CAD) was 46. 1 % in the cases with normal breast image. The correct prompts rate was 70. 5 % in the cases with breast mass, 75. 0 % in the cases with breast microcalcification and 100. 0 % in the cases with breast cancer. Conclusion Although the CAD system has showed clinical values in practice, there are still some false-positive and false-negative results.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of entecavir treatment on hepatitis B patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure. Methods Eighty-four hepatitis B patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure were treated with entecavir 0.5 mg daily and Other routine drugs. Another 99 hepatitis B patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure were treated with only routine drugs as control. The survival, liver functions, hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA level, prothrombin time (PT) were observed. The survival rates of patients with early, middle or late stage of liver failure were analyzed. The comparison of rates were done using chi-square test. The numeration data were compared by t test. The survival rates were compared using Kaplan-Meier method. Results Among patients with early stage of acute-on-chronic liver failure, the survival rate in treatment group was 63.3% (31/49), which was significantly higher than that in control group (39.7%, 23/58) (χ2=5.923, P=0.015). Among patients with middle stage of acute-on-chronic liver failure, the surviral rate in treatment group was 63.0% (17/27), which was significantly higher than that in control group (35.1%, 13/37) (χ2=4.854, P=0.028). Among patients with late stage of acute-on-chronic liver failure, four out of eight cases survived in treatment group, while one out of four cases survived in control group. In patients with serum total hilirubin (TBil) level > 342 μmol/L, the survival rate was 56.0% in treatment group, which was significantly higher than that in control group (26.8%) (χ2=9.351,P=0.002). At week 4 of the treatment, the HBV DNA reduction in treatment group was 3. 95 lg copy/mL, which was higher than that in control group (1.78 lg copy/mL) (t=5.847, P=0.001). Conclusions Entecavir treatment could improve the survival rate of hepatitis B patients with early or middle stage of acute-on-chronic liver failure. And the further study with larger population is needed in patients with late stage of liver failure. In addition, entecavir therapy could also improve the survival rate of patients with TBil >342 μmol/L.
