0.05).Conclusions Neither the new nor old SIRS diagnostic criteria had a high conforning rate with neonatal critical illnesses;There was no significant difference between them in each clinical item.It shows that the new SIRS diagnostic criteria is not superior to the old one,therefore we should improve the neonatal SIRS diagnostic criteria in the future.

Objective To retrospectively evaluate the mammographic features of breast ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS)and DCIS with small invasive foci,and to analyze the correlation between the mammographic findings and the prognostic biologic factors.Methods The mammographic examination was performed in 95 consecutive women with breast DCIS(n = 50)and DCIS with invasive foci(n = 45 ).The prognostic biologic factors including progesterone receptor(PR),C-erbB-2,and p53 were evaluated in 62 of 95 cases.Categorical data were expressed as percentages and analyzed by using the X~2 test,and furthermore the odds ratio was measured.Results(1)Only one abnormality was seen on mammography in 62 patients. Combined two abnormalities on mammography were seen in 26 patients.Mammograms were normal in 7 patients.(2)Calcifications with or without other abnormality were noted in 62 cases.Of them,73% (n =45)had higher probability of malignancy calcifications and the others were intermediate concern calcifications.Clustered calcifications(36 lesions)was the most common distribution,which usually accompanied by another abnormality.And then were segmental(18 lesions)distributed pattern.As far as the shape of mass (n = 22)was concerned,the oval shaped lesion(13 cases)was the most common,and the margin of the mass appeared as ill-defined in 15 eases,microlobulated in 1,circumscribed in 4,and obscured in 2,respectively.Isodensity mass had a higher frequency in this group(12/22,55%).Other non-calcification findings included architecture distortion(7 cases),local asymmetry (15 cases),global asymmetry (5 cases),and solitary dilated duct (3 cases),and most of them accompanied with other signs. (3)For expression profile of the biological factors,significant differences were found among malignant calcification group,intermediate concern calcification group,and non-calcification group. The odds of PR positive for the lesions noted as non-calcification were 11.00 times higher (X~2 =8.571 ,P=0.003 ;95% CI, 1.998—60.572)than the lesions noted as intermediate concern calcifications,and 8.80 times higher (X~2 = 9.748,P=0.002 ;95% CI,2.024—38.253)than the lesions noted as malignant calcifications.The odds of C-erbB-2 positive for the lesions showed as malignant calcifications were 12.35 times higher (X~2=7.353, P=0.007 ;95% CI,1.447—105.443)than the lesions showed as non-calcification,and 5.74 times higher (X~2=4.977,P = 0.026;95% CI,1.110—29.645)than the lesions showed as intermediate concern calcifications.Conclusion The mammographic features of DCIS and DCIS with small invasive foci were characteristic.Mammographic findings could be a prognostic markers,which could provide a possibility for making a treatment plan.

Objective To evaluate the short and long term efficacy of self-expandable metallic stent implantation through bronchoscope in the management of the patients with malignant airway stenosis.Methods Seventy-four hospitalized patients with malignant airway stenosis during a 10-year period were selected as our subjects from Dec.2002 to Nov.2012 in the Respiratory Department of the Central Hospital of Wuhan.All these patients underwent bronchoscope for nitinol self-expandable metallic stent implantation.Clinical improvement,6min walking distance (6MWT),mMRC index,arterial blood gas,as well as early and late postoperative complications were investigated.Results A total of 77 stents were implanted,including 34 covered metallic stents and 43 uncovered metallic stents.All patients showed the obvious relief of dyspnea after the operation.6MWT at pre-operation was (172 ± 45)m and (288 ± 36)m at 28 week post-operation.Arterial blood gas was (61.34 ±6.44)mmHg at pre-opemtion and (72.12 ±6.87) mmHg at 28 week post-operation.mMRC was 3.56 ± 0.44 at pre-operation and 1.96 ± 0.37 at 28 week post-operation.All these differences were significant(P ＜ 0.01).The operation succeeded in releasing bucking of patients with esophago-tracheal fistula.Symptoms such as fever,cough,pharyngodynia,foreign body sensation and hemoptysis were observed,and all the above side effect could be solved while no serious complications arose.Conclusion Bronchoscopic insertion of metallic airway stents for malignant airway stenosis is a safe and effective procedure that could obviously relieve respiratory distress and improve the quality of life.

Objective To prospectively assess the predictive power of centralization phenomenon in the curative effect of automated PLD.Methods The survey population was consisted of 109 patients with inclusion heraiation demonstrated by CT/MRI,74 men and 35 women with average age of 43.1 years(17～75 years). All were complained of low back pain,with varying degrees of lower extremity pain and altered sensation, lasting for more than 2 months;including one symptomatic disc in 99 patients and two symptomatic discs in 10 patients.Patients were undergone dynamic mechanical spinal test and reported whether the test would aggravate their pain.The assessment included forward flexion,extension,rotation of the trunk to the right and left, rotation to the left with fight extension,rotation to the fight with left extension,and whether straight leg raising in the supine position would aggravate back pain or leg pain.Symptom resposes were categorized into three groups:centralization group(CG),partial-centralization group(PCG)and noncentralization group(NCG). Centralization of pain is the progressive retreat of the most distal extent of the referred or radicular pain toward or to the lumbar midline.Noncentralization of pain is the peripheralization of pain in one or more directions, and no change in the distal-most pain location or intensity.All patients received a single therapy with PLD. Results A follow-up of 109 patients for 3 to 6 months,including 46 cases with 24 as exellent and 22 as good reaching 100% of excellent good rate in CG by MacNab standards;43 cases with 5 as exellent,29 as good,9 as fair and poor,with total effective rate of 79.1% in PCG.Twenty cases of NCG symptoms showed no improvement and therefore surgery was considered.Conclusions Centralization phenomenon occurrence during initial mechanical evaluation is a very accurate predictor for successful PLD outcome.Nonoccurrence of centralization would accurately predict poor PLD outcome and thus helpful as early predictor of the need for surgical treatment.
