Implantation of metallic stents is an important method in treatment of airway strictures,and it is applied in increasingly for treating benign tracheobronchial strictures. In this article, we comprehensively introduced the selection of characteristic stents, the current status and progress of stent application in benign tracheobronchial strictures.

Objective To investigate the application of pathogenic examination and biomarkers detection of cerebrospinal fluid in diagnosis of intracranial infection .Methods Pathogenic and biomarkers examination were performed in cerebrospinal fluid of 49 cases with intracranial infection (infection group) and 49 cases of craniocerebral trauma but without intracranial infection (control group) .Results Adenosine deaminase activity obviously increased in tuberculous meningitis cases ,glucose levels decreased in bac‐terial meningitis and cryptococcal meningitis cases ,protein and IgA content increased in bacterial meningitis cases ,IgG levels in‐creased in bacterial meningitis and tuberculous meningitis cases ,IgM levels increased in tuberculous meningitis cases (P<0 .05) . There were no significant differences of biomarkers levels between viral meningitis cases and control group (P>0 .05) .Conclusion Combined pathogenic detection and biomarker detection of cerebrospinal fluid could be helpful for the diagnosis and treatment of intracranial infection .

Objective To study the spectrum structure of X-ray and simplify the description method of it. Methods By the general program of Monte Carlo Geant4 to study X-ray spectrum structure and angular distribution of X-ray energy spectrum. Results The results of percentage depth doses and profile curves at different depths of any radiation fields in water phantom calculated by Monte Carlo Geant4 were consistent with the measurements. Conclusions In radiotherapy, X-ray with same nominal energy have very similar dosimetry characteristics, this indicates they have very similar energy spectrum and angular distribution of spectrum. the differences of dosimetric details reflect the different details of the X-ray spectrum structure and angular distribution of X-ray energy spectrum. These studies have very important significances to rapidly build precise virtual source modeling for Monte Carlo calculation based on dose curves measurements in water phantom.

Objective To compare the safety and efficiency of endoscopic total extraperitoneal patchplasty(TEP)and modified Kugel hernioplasty for inguinal hernia.Methods The clinical data of 284 cases(312 surgeries)of preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair,including 134 cases(152 surgeries)of TEP and 150 cases (160 surgeries)of modified Kugel hernioplasty,were retrospectively evaluated from June 2009 to June 2011.Mean operative time,postoperative hospital stay,postoperative complications and recur-rence were compared between groups.Results There were no significant differences in mean operative time [(48.75 ±12.14)min vs(51.46 ±24.76)min,P=0.248],postoperative hospital stay [(5.23 ± 1.85)d vs(5.84 ±1.52),P=0.126],postoperative complications [5 cases(3.3%)vs 8 cases(5.0%), P=0.598]and recurrence [1 case(0.7%)vs 2 cases(1.3%),P=1.00]between TEP and modified Kugel hernioplasty,espectively.Conclusion TEP and modified Kugel hernioplasty are both methods for preperitoneal hernia repair and they can completely repair the defect of myopectineal orifice.They are safe and effective,which is worthy of being spread in clinical practice.

ObjectiveTo analyze the effects of high-order scattered X-ray in dose calculation in radiotherapy,to resolve the problem of correcting the dose contribution of secondary and high-order scattering X-ray to the primary scattered X ray,and to provide a support for photon fast dose calculation method of Monte Carlo.MethodsBy the theory of cross-section in interaction between X-ray with material and Monte Carlo calculating results,to analysis the relative importance of primary scattered X-ray,secondary and high-order scattered of X-ray in dose calculation.ResultsThe contribution of secondary and high-order scattered X-ray to dose calculation was very small,it can be corrected to the primary scattered X-ray with a correction factor.ConclusionsThe results show that we can obtain a precise dose calculation for radiotherapy by only to tracking the contribution of primary X-rays and primary scattering X-ray,so,to establishing the database for primary scattering X-ray by Monte Carlo methods is important for fast dose calculation of Monte Carlo method.
