Objective Construct the reasonably effective performance assessment mode of clinical departments,which is suitable for the continuous development of modern hospital.Method Use of balanced scorecard (BSC) principle,using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and Rank sum ratio method (RSR)to establish a performance assessment system. Results Constructed the performance assessment mode of clinical departments,which can be dynamically adjusted based on management objectives strategy.The mode takes the BSC as the baseline,the strategy of hospital development as the guide,performance assessment index system as the key element. Conclusion The performance assessment mode of clinical departments,base on BSC,achieve the strategic performance management,and is conducive to the hospital for continuous improvement of medical care quality,in line with the long-term strategic needs of the hospital.

Objective To assess value of contrast enhanced ultrasonography(CEUS)in diagnosis of extracranial carotid stenosis.Methods Baseline ultrasonography and CEUS were performed in 108 patients with extracranial carotid stenosis.The location and degree of stenosis were judged and compared with the results of digital subtraction angiography(DSA).Results Of 108 patients,DSA diagnosed 81 vessels in 62 cases of mildintermediate stenosis which consisted of 33 common carotid arteries(CCAs),43 internal carotid arteries(ICAs)and 5 external carotid arteries(ECAS),51 vessels in 39 cases Of severe stenosis(46 ICAs and 5 CCAs)and 7vessels in 7 cases of complete occlusion(7 ICAs).The surface of intima and the interface of media-adventitia were depicted clearly by CEUS.The consistent rates in diagnosis on mild-intermediate stenosis,severe stenosis and complete obstruction by baseline ultrasonography and CEUS were 76.5%and 9 1.4%(P＜0.05).60.8%and94.1%(P＜0.001),28.6%and 100%(P＜0.05)respectively when judged by DSA as the golden standard.CEUS and DSA were correlated significantly on calculating the stenosis rate(r=0.975,P＜0.001).Conclusions CEUS can assess the degree of extracranial carotid stenosis accurately and non-invasively which is superior to baseline ultrasonography and correlated significantly with DSA.

Expression of prepro-orexin gene in the hypothalamus was decreased in rats with dietary obesity,and has no correlation with serum corticosterone concentration.Expression of orexin receptor-2 in adrenal was increased in obese rats,and was positively correlated to expression of CRH mRNA and inversely correlated to serum corticosterene concentration.

The practice and exploration of bilingual teaching for the course of microbiology has been made in order to improve the students foreign lingual level and to meet the higher requirement on tip-top person with the social development. As a result,bilingual teaching is welcome,and the teaching effect is so distinct that the aim was reached to either study the fundamental knowledge or enhance the English level.

Agricultural Microbiology is a professional foundation curriculum for biology,botany and envi-ronmental majors in agricultural universities.After 1999,with the increase enrollment of the national under-graduate education and rapid construction of the university,the number of majors and students increased rapidly and quality of students and talent demand of society changed dramatically.Under such condition,in order to meet the society demand of microbiology,according to the distinguishing feature of different major groups,based on strengthening the basis teaching and stretching application teaching,new curriculum teaching model and method were explored positively,and then new curriculum system was constructed.Be-ing aroused sufficiently of the students’ subjective initiative,both the teaching quality and comprehensive quality were improved.

The clinical value of whole body positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) as an imaging tool in diagnosis of ophthalmic tumors was investigated.The retrospective observational case series were performed on the patients with suspected ophthalmic tumors who underwent whole body PET/CT.The golden standard of diagnosis was the final pathological diagnosis or the results of long-term follow-up for patients without surgery/ biopsy.PET/CT findings were compared with the golden standard.The sensitivity,specificity,accuracy and positive likelihood ratio of PET/CT in the detection of ophthalmic tumors were calculated.The clinical application of PET/CT in different types of ophthalmic tumors was evaluated.The results showed that 30 patients (18 males and 12 females) with a mean age of 43.0 years (range 4-63 years) were collected.The mean sizes of orbital tumors and intraocular tumors were 26.8 mm×17.8 mm and 11.2 mm×6.1 mm,respectively.The overall sensitivity,specificity,accuracy and positive likelihood ratio of whole body PET/CT in ophthalmic tumors were 76.5％,71.4％,75.0％ and 2.67,and were 62.5％,100％ and 70.0％ in intraocular tumors,and those were 100％,60.0％ and 84.6％ in orbital tumors,respectively.PET/CT findings were applied to help make appropriate treatment options in 27 out of 30 patients (90.0％),and 12 (40.0％) patients changed the treatment strategy.False negative results in 4 cases and false positive results in 2 cases were observed in this series.It was suggested that PET/CT was an effective imaging modality in detecting,diagnosing and developing therapeutic schedule for patients with ophthalmic tumors.It was more sensitive and accurate for detecting orbital tumors than for detecting intraocular tumors.

Objective To investigate the imaging characteristics and differentiating value of hepatic perfusion disorders(HPD)in small focal liver lesions(≤3 cm),the transient hepatic hyperechoic enhancement(THHE),with contrast-enhanced ultrasonography(CEUS)during arterial phase and explore the potential mechanism.Methods Two hundred and sixty-eight small foeal liver lesions found in 215 patients who had undergone CEUS were retrospectively evaluated in this study.Hepatic parenchymal THHEs around those lesions were diagnosed and the CEUS characteristics as well as the detecting rate related to different lesions were analyzed.Results Forty-five among 268 lesions(16.8%)showed surrounding THHEs during CEUS and they exhibited fast wash-in to form hyperechoic area of different shape and range and then those area became fast washout to be isoechoic in contrast with peripheral liver parenchyma.According to the imaging morphology,THHEs could be divided into four types:type Ⅰ,wedge-or fan-shaped(51.1%);type Ⅱ,encircling-shaped(20.0%);type Ⅲ,nodule-like-shaped(11.1%);type Ⅳ,irregular-shaped(17.8%).According to the pathology,the liver focal lesions could be divided into three groups:benign group,which consisted of 88 lesions and 8(9.1%)lesions showed surrounding THHEs of which 87.5% presented type Ⅲ and Ⅳ;malignant group,which consisted of 141 lesions and 31(22.0%)lesions showed surrounding THHEs of which 67.7% presented type Ⅰ;tumor-like lesions group,which consisted of 39 lesions and 6(15.4%)lesions showed surrounding THHEs of which 66.7% presented type Ⅱ.There was significant difference in the composition of THHEs type among three groups(P＜0.001).The detecting rate of THHEs in benign group was lower than that in other groups(P＜0.05).Conclusions THHEs showed with CEUS in small liver focal lesions are representation of HPD and have different detecting rate and imaging morphology type in different lesions.It is very important to recognize and distinguish THHEs surrounding focal lesions,which could help to make differential diagnosis,avoid incorrect diagnosis and judge the size of lesions correctly.
