Objective:To design a software to read and display CT and RT structure and draw a new contour without treatment planning system (TPS).Methods: In order to display the contour information drawn by doctors, the first step was to match CT images and RT structure then the same screen rendering of CT and RT structures could be applied. In order to add contour in RT structure obtaining the coordinates interactively, connecting coordinate points were the essential steps. Then a unique identity was given in the area of that contour to ensure its unique results. Results: The software successfully read and displayed CT and RT structures and drew a new contour without TPS.Conclusion: In this study, the software establishes a basis to improve the precision of the radiotherapy dose.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of three types of drainage in the treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice.Methods 84 patients with malignant obstructive jaundice were selected,40 cases were treated with bridge drainage,24 cases were undergone percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage(PTCD) and 20 cases were treated with Roux-En-Y anastomosis.The changes of total bilirubin and direct bilirubin were detected 1,3,7 and 14 days after operation.Results The total bilirubin and direct bilirubin after 1,3,7 and 14 days had significantly decreased compared with pre-treatment(P ＜0.05),the decline rates in bridge drainage group were faster than the other two groups (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The three types of drainage for treating malignant obstructive jaundice have exact effect,and the bridge drainage can reduce the bilirubin to lower levels more quickly than the other two methods.

Objective To explore the effect of umbilical artery blood pH on the diagnosis of neonatal asphyxia and the evaluation of its prognosis. Methods Blood samples were obtained from 108 normal newborns and 51 asphyxial newborns,who were randomly chosen among newborns delivered in our hospital from november 2007 to may 2008. Umbilical artery blood gas was measured and compared with apgur rating. Results With the degression of umbilical blood pH, the incidence rate of neonatal asphyxia increased and the normal apgar rating decreased(P < 0.01), which suggesting that there was tight relevant between umbilical blood pH and neonatal asphyxia. Conclusion Compared with apgur rating, umbilical artery blood pH could reflect the asphyxia degree of newborns more objectively andsensitively and it might play a guiding role in the prognosis of neonatal asphyxia.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)combined with laparoscopic resection (LC) in the treatment of patients with cholecystic stone.Methods100 patients with cholecystic stone were randomly divided into observation group and control group.The patients in the control group (50 cases) received traditional open surgery,and the patients in observation group(50 cases) were given ERCP combined with LC.The effects of two groups were observed.ResultsThe operative time was (49.2 ± 8.5 ) min and intraoperative blood loss was(54.0 ± 12.2 )ml in the observation group.The operative time was (80.2 ± 15.7 )min and intraoperative blood loss was ( 114.5 ± 27.5 ) ml in control group.There were statistically significant differences between two groups(P ＜0.05 ).The hospital stay time and postoperative infection rate of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( all P ＜ 0.05 ).ConclusionIt was a safe and effective method to treat patients with cholecystic stone by ERCP combined with LC,which had the advantages of less trauma,faster recovery,less hospitalization time and could reduce the financial burden on patients,thereby it was worthy of clinical application.

ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the therapeutic effect of gastroesophageal devascularization( GD),portasystemic shunt( PSS),devascularization plus portasystemic shunt ( GD + PSS) for the treatment of 4250 cirrhotic portal hypertension cases reported in Chinese literature. MethodsThe literatures about the effect of gastroesophageal devascularization,portasystemic shunt,devascularization plus portasystemic shunt on portal hypertension were collected from Wanfang databases, China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI) from 1980 to 2011.RevMan 4.2 and SPSS 13.0 were used for data analysis. ResultsIn this study 17 reports were enrolled into the meta-analysis.The results of the mta-analysis showed that long term survival rate in the group of GD plus PSS was higher than that in group of GD [OR=1.73,95％CI (1.23,2.44),P ＜0.01].That in group of PSS was similar with the group of GD [ OR =0.87,95 ％ CI (0.63,1.20),P =0.40 ].That of group GD plus PSS was similar with the group of PSS [ OR =1.73,95％ CI (0.95,3.13),P =0.07 ].For recurrent variceal bleeding rate,that in group of PSS was lower than that in the group of GD[ OR =0.46,95％ CI (0.35,0.61 ),P ＜0.01 ].That in the group of GD plus PSS was lower than that in the group of GD [ OR =0.25,95％ CI (0.18,0.35),P ＜ 0.01 ].The group of GD plus PSS was similar to that of group of PSS [ OR =0.72,95％ CI ( 0.40,1.29 ),P =0.27 ].Encephalopathy rate was higher in the group of PSS than the group of GD [ OR =3.57,95％ CI (2.43,5.23 ),P ＜0.01 ].That in group of GD plus PSS was lower than that in the group of PSS[ OR =0.37,95％ CI (0.20,0.69),P ＜0.01 ],while that in GD plus PSS was similar to the group of GD[ OR =1.58,95％ CI (1.02,2.43),P =0.04 ].ConclusionsThe only significant factor influencing the long term result in Chinese patients with portal hypertension is preoperative liver function.The three types of operation have different benefits and disadvantages.

Objective To assess the violence risk levels of the community patients with severe mental illness and Analyze the associated factors.Methods A working group composed of psychiatrists,community police,FIMITIC staff,community physicians,neighborhood or village committee members was established.501 community patients with severe mental illness were evaluated with Violence Risk Assessment Scale by working group.While the data of the general demograpbic,medical history and violence history was investigated.Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the factors associated with violence.Results In 501 patients,risk levels of grade 0:124cases (24.8％),grade 1:165 cases (32.9％),grade 2:118 cases (23.5％),grade 3:59 cases (11.8％),grade 4:28 cases (5.6％) and grade 5:7 cases (1.4％).Logistic regression analysis showed four significant risk factors,which were schizophrenia (OR 4.139),no taking medicine (OR 6.883),unstable condition (OR 234.534) the number of previous violence(OR 3.457) (P ＜ 0.05).Logistic regression equation:Logit (severe violence) =-8.511 + 1.420 (schizophrenia) + 1.929 (no taking medicine) + 5.458 (unstable condition) +1.241 (the number of previous violence).Conclusion The results of violence risk assessment and risk factors have directive significance for management of community patients with severe mental illness.

Objective To establish the measuring methods and relevant influencing factors of liver zone speed index (ZSI) by sound velocity tissue quantification (SVQ) technology in healthy subjects.Methods Liver ZSI were obtained in 49 healthy volunteers using SVQ technique with Zonare Z.one Ultra system.In the first 15 subjects,ZSI were acquired at four positions (superficial and deep parts of right lobe,superficial and deep parts of left lobe).Then the achievement rate in different position of liver was calculated to select the suitable measuring position.The reproducibility was analyzed with intra-group correlation coefficient(ICC).The last 34 healthy subjects received ZSI measurements in the appropriate position only.The reference value of ZSI was calculated using x-± 1.96 s.Results It was stable to measure values of ZSI with SVQ technique.The achievement rate was higher in right lobe with being 1 cm below the liver capsule for the optimal measuring point.There was no significant difference of ZSI value between male and female groups.There was no significant correlation between age and values of ZSI while a significant negative correlation was found between body mass index (BMI) and values of ZSI (r =-0.63,P =0.000).The reference value of body mass index between 18.5-23.9 kg/m2 was 5.67-36.29 m/s.Conclusions ZSI values of liver measured with SVQ technique shows a good stability and may be a new promising method for assessment of liver elasticity quantitatively.
