Objective To evaluate the value and limitation of CTA, MRI and DSA in the diagnosis of the cerebral venous malformation. Methods CT angiography in 8 cases and MRI in 10 cases were performed among 12 cases of cerebral venous malformation confirmed by carotid angiography . Results All cases had typical DSA appearance and it could be seen both the number and the direction of the guide vein. The typical “Medusa-head” sign could be seen on MRI and could be more obvious after contrast enhancement.The other complications might be seen on the postcontrast. On CTA,both the lesion itself and the “caput medusae”sign could be displayed.Conclusion In diagnosis of cerebral venous malformation,DSA is the gold standard,CTA is the significant method in diagnosing and following up,while MRI is the most useful method.

Corticosteroids,anti-vascular endothelial growth factor,antibiotics and antiviral were the main 4 classes of drugs for intravitreal injection.Depending on the class and volume of medication,age and gender of patients,ocular axial lengths or vitreous humour reflux,intraocular pressure (IOP) can be elevated transiently or persistently after intravitreal injection.Transient IOP elevation occurred in 2 weeks after intravitreal injection,and can be reduced to normal level for most patients.Only a small portion of such patients have very high IOP and need intervention measures such as anterior chamber puncture or lowering intraocular pressure by drugs.Long term IOP elevation is refers to persistent IOP increase after 2 weeks after intravitreal injection,and cause optic nerve irreversible damage and decline in the visual function of patients.Thus drug or surgical intervention need to be considered for those patients with high and long period of elevated IOP.Large-scale multicenter clinical trials need to be performed to evaluate the roles of the drug and patients factors for IOP of post-intravitreal injection,and to determine if it is necessary and how to use methods reducing IOP before intravitreal injection.

Objective To evaluate the profile of transient ischemic attacks in younger patients compared with older patients effectively.Methods We study 75 younger patients(≤45 years)compared with 90 older patients(≥65 years).History of presenting transient ischemic attacks,etiology,clinical feature and lab investigation were compared on the basis of the above age groups.Results Overweight、hypercholesterolemia、insomnia and vascular disease family history being more common in the younger group and Hypertension,ischemic heart disease,long-term history of smoking being more common in the elder group.Diabetes and high serum uric acid occurred high frequently in both groups.Conclusion A significant correlation existed between etiologies contribution and adverse life custom,the early management should be take up to prevent TIA occurrence.

Objective:To investigate the protective effects of neferine on lipopolysaccharide ( LPS)-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells ( HUVECs) injury. Methods:The optimum inducing concentration of LPS was screened out through pretests and used for the model establishment of HUVECs damage. CCK8 was used to detect the influence of neferine at different concentrations on LPS-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells ( HUVECs) injury. Nitric oxide ( NO) content was measured by the Griess Reagent method. The nitric-oxide synthase (NOS) activity was assessed by the commercially available kits. Results:The inhibitory rate of HU-VECs was 54. 50% detected by CCK8, which induced by LPS at the concentration of 100 μg·ml-1(P<0. 01). Neferine at the con-centrations of 0. 3-5. 0μmol·L-1 could increase the cell viability in a concentration-dependent manner, while it inhibited the cell pro-liferation at the concentration of 10 μmol·L-1(P<0.05). Neferine could reverse the situation, and the NO release was increased and the tNOS/iNOS activity was increased induced by LPS (P<0. 05). The results shown by the inverted microscope suggested that the floating dead cells were decreased, the cell shape was basically sound and tightly packed with the concentration increase of neferine (0. 3-5. 0μmol·L-1) in a concentration-dependent manner. Conclusion:The results show that neferine has protective effects on HU-VECs injury induced by LPS, and the mechanism may be related with the decrease of intracellular levels of NO and NOS activity.

Objective To investigate hemostatic effect of uterine tamponade in dealing with postpartum hem -orrhage due to uterine inertia during caesarean section .Methods 72 patients treated with conservative treatment due to bleeding uterine contraction weakness during cesarean section were chosen ,who were dealed with sterile gauze close packing of uterine bleeding ( uterine packing group ) .43 patients underwent conservative therapy of uterine contraction weakness resulted in postpartum hemorrhage were selected to carry out B -Lynch suture hemostasis ( B-Lynch suture group).Bleeding volume,operation time,bleeding efficiency of two groups were calculated .Results The uterine packing group had shorter operation time ,less bleeding,immediate hemostasis rate.The B-Lynch suture group had a tad longer operation time , bleeding more , immediate hemostasis rate low , low efficiency .Immediate hemostasis rate (95%VS 82%)between two groups had statistically significant (χ2 =4.02,P<0.05),and no significant difference in the operation time(t=0.73,P>0.05).Conclusion Uterine packing for postpartum hemorrhage due to uterine inertia during caesarean section has simple operation ,rapid,hemostatic effect,postoperative body without foreign body removal.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of intravitreal ranibizumab and (or) triamcinolone combined with laser photocoagulation for macular edema secondary to branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) during one year period.Methods The data of 31 eyes from 31 consecutive patients with macular edema secondary to BRVO during one year follow-up visit were retrospectively analyzed.Mean best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) logMAR was (0.74±0.36) and mean central retinal thickness (CRT) was (484.48± 164.81) μm at baseline.All patients received standardized clinical comprehensive examinations including vision,intraocular pressure and optical coherence tomography for diagnosis before treatment.All patients received intravitreal injections of 0.5 mg ranibizumab (0.05 ml) at first visit.The continue PRN treatment were based on the visual acuity changes and the optical coherence tomography findings.Eyes received combined triamcinolone acetonide 0.05 ml (40 mg/ml) and ranibizumab for macular edema recurrence after two injections of ranibizumab and received laser photocoagulation during 10-14 days after third injections of ranibizumab.Mean injection of ranibizumab was 3.52± 2.01,15 eyes with triamcinolone acetonide (0.84 ± 1.21),21 eyes with laser photocoagulation (0.97± 0.95) and 12 eyes with three treatment.Compared the visual acuities and CRTs of the first and the last visits by statistical analysis.Results Mean visual acuity improved significantly to 0.42±0.33 logMAR (t=6.611,P=0.000).Mean improvement of visual acuity was 2.90± 3.07 lines.A gain of three or more logarithmic lines was evaluated in 20/31 eyes (64.52％) at the last visit.Mean CRT was (326.19± 117.80) μm (t=4.514,P=0.000).Mean reduction of CRT was (333.58±134.17) μm.A decrease of 100 μm of CRT was evaluated in 17/31 eyes (54.84％).No severe ocular and systematic side effect was found.Conclusion The efficacy and safety of intravitreal ranibizumab and (or) triamcinolone combined with laser photocoagulation for macular edema secondary to BRVO were assured.

Objective To explore the changes of serum CRP and SAA in patients with comprehensive assessment COPD group,and correlation with lung function.Methods We selected 139 cases patients with COPD.According to the guide of GOLD 2015,the COPD patients were divided into group A (23 cases),group B (19 cases),group C (51 cases) and group D (46 cases).Analysis of the correlation between serum CRP and SAA level and injury severity of pulmonary function was perforined.Results Compared with group A,C,the group D had significance and had the highest level of serum CRP,SAA (P ＜ 0.05).Group B was higher than group C.The Lung function damage degree was negatively correlated with the level of CRP and SAA in patients with COPD (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The change of the concentration of serum CRP,SAA will contribute to the evaluation of patients with COPD and provide objective basis for the treatment and management of patients with COPD.Detection of CRP,SAA is helpful to evaluate the damage degree of lung function.
