Shanghai Journal of Acupuncture and Moxibustion 2015;(9):843-844
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of acupuncture plus oral carbamazepine in treating neuropathic pain in cancer. Methods Fifty-seven cancer patients were randomly allocated to a treatment group of 30 cases and a control group of 27 cases. The treatment group received acupuncture plus oral administration of carbamazepine and the control group, oral administration of carbamazepine alone on the basis of standardized treatment for cancer pain. The control effects on cancer pain were evaluated in the two groups of patients after four weeks of treatment. Results The total overall remission rate was 93.3%in the treatment group and 77.8% in the control group; there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion Combined use of acupuncture and medicine is an effective way to treat neuropathic pain in cancer.

Objective To investigate the enhancement characteristics of the mass of liver and pancreas on Mn-DPDP enhanced MRI. Methods Mn-DPDP enhanced MRI were carried out in 25 cases, of which 15 cases had examined by Gd-DTPA-enhanced MRI. Conventional plain with SE T 1WI、FSE T 2WI were done in all patient. SE T 1WI and FSPGR T 1WI were performed during 40 minutes~4 hours after the administration of Mn-DPDP, with a dose of 0.5 ml/kg.Parts of the patients were repeat examined 24 hours after the administration of Mn-DPDP. Results Among 10 cases of hepatocelluler carcinoma, slightly heterogeneous enhancement were found in 8 cases.hemi-ring enhancement were found in 2 cases. 2 cases of liver cirrhosis had apparently nodular homogenous enhancement and their signal intensity were higher than normal liver tissue. No enhancement were found in 2 cases of hemangioma, 2 cases of liver metastases and 1 case of hepatic cyst. Also no enhancement were found in 8 cases of pancreatic carcinoma, but the tissue of pancreas around the tumor were enhanced remarkably. Conclusion The Mn- DPDP can show remarkably enhancement of normal liver and pancreas.The medicine's peak value keeps on time grows, can provide plentiful scanning time windows.

0.05)significant difference in 30 days (P0.001) between trunks groups and branches groups.Conclusion For the pationts with hypersplenism arteries were two or three branches,the PSE operation in the splenic arteriosus branches should be done,if splenic arteries were no truncus or truncus obvious crooked causing to introduce the catheter difficuty,the PSE operation in the splenic arteriosus truncus should be done.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of rescue stenting after failure of mechanical thrombectomy for acute cerebral large artery occlusive infarction. Methods A total of 29 patients with acute cerebral large artery occlusive infarction who failed mechanical recanalization, admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to March 2018, were chosen in our study; 18 patients accepted rescue stenting (stenting group) and 11 patients did not accept rescue stenting (non-stenting group). Comparative analyses of final vascular recanalization rate, complication rate, and clinical outcomes in the stenting and non-stenting groups were performed. Results The final recanalization rates of the stenting group and non-stenting group were 88.9% (16/18) and 36.4% (4/11), respectively, and the good prognosis rates were 55.6% (10/18) and 18.2% (2/11), respectively; the differences were statistically significant between the two groups (P<0.05). The incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (11.1% [2/18] vs. 18.2% [2/11]) and mortality (22.2% [4/18] vs. 45.5% [5/11]) showed no significant differences among the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Rescue stenting after mechanical recanalization of acute cerebral large artery occlusive infarction can significantly improve the clinical prognosis without increasing risk of intracranial hemorrhage.
