A 54-year-old female farmer presented with a pea-sized red nodule on the left upper limb near the wrist for 15 days,which occurred after trauma,gradually became swollen and ruptured,and developed into multiple nodules arranged in a chain in 30 days.Skin examination revealed multiple hard purple-red nodules arranged in a line on her left upper limb,some of which were ruptured with a small amount of purulent exndate.Histopathological examination further revealed that the focus of infection manifested as pyogenic granuloma-like inflammation mainly infiltrated with mixed inflammatory cells.Periodic acid Schiff (PAS) staining showed no fungal structures,including fungal spores,hyphae and asteroid body.The biopsy tissue culture yielded the fungus.According to the morphological analysis of the cultures and results of molecular identification based on internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and calmodulin (CAL) coding regions,this case was finally diagnosed as lymphocutaneous sporotrichosis caused by Sporothrix schenckii sensu stricto.The patient was treated with oral potassium iodide 10％ solution in a dose of 10 ml thrice a day.After 2-month treatment,the patient felt that the lesions were obviously improved,but afterwards she was lost to follow-up.This research report suggests that phenotypic analysis combined with ITS/CAL-based molecular identification can accurately identify Sporothrix schenckii complex at the species level.

Objective To explore the effect of leg massage during operation on deep venous thrombosis(DVT)in patients of vascular surgery department.Methods Ninety-four DVT patients were randomized into experiment group and control group according to the computer-generated numbers ,46 cases in the latter and 48 in the former.The routine care measures were applied in the control group, while intraoperative leg massage was used in the observation group.The two groups were compared in terms of curative effect and the incidence of DVT.Result The incidences of DVT in the experiment group and the control one were 2.08%(1/48)and 15.22%(7/46)respectively, showing significant difference between them(P<0.05).Conclusion The intraoperative lag massage are significant in the reduction of DVT incidences after operation.

Objective To explore the dynamic changes of soluble interleukin-2 receptor(SIL-2R) and tumor necrosis factor ?(TNF-?) levels in pediatric malignant solid tumors clinical value.Methods The levels of SIL-2R and tumor necrosis factor ?(TNF-?) were measured by ELISA in 15 cases with pediatric malignant solid tumors before and after chemotherapy.Results Before chemotherapy the levels of SIL-2R and TNF-? of every group patients were significantly higher those that of normal control group (P

We adhere to the scientific development concept,innovate teaching supervision mode, improve teaching supervision system ,open up the working thought of focusing on guidance in combination with supervision,foster people-oriented supervision concept and expand the content of teaching supervision. The reform and innovation of implement teaching supervision in the university have only played an extremely important role in changing the study style,teaching style,management style and some other important aspects which affect undergraduate education quality but also helped enhance the teachers` awareness of ethics teaching quality and professionalism and comprehensive improve the teaching quality.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of tumor resection combined with lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS) in pulmonary and esophageal patients.Methods 45 patients with lung tumor and 37 patients with esophageal tumor were di- vided into group A(tumor resection plus LVRS) and group B(tumor resection only) randomly.Group A patients underwent tumor re- section combined with LVRS.The target area was determined according to chest computed tomography and ventilation-perfusion scan- ning.The removed pulmonary tissues made up about 20%～30% of the unilateral lung parenchyma.All patients were followed up for 6～12 months.The pulmonary function,blood gas,dyspnea index and 6-min walk distance were compared.Results There were no death during perioperative period.Forced vital capacity in 1 second,PaO_2,PaCO_2,dyspnea index and 6-min walk distance of the group A were all better than preoperative ones,while group B patients had no statistical difference or slight decrease.Conclusion For some tumor patients with emphysema,simultaneous LVRS might provide better opportunity for surgical treatment,but also im- proved the post-operative quality of life.It widens the operative indication for tumor patients.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy of endoscopic self-expanded metal stent for the treatment of gastric outlet obstruction.

METHODSFifty-six cases of gastric outlet obstruction, collected from March 1999 to January 2008, were treated by endoscopic self-expanded metal stents. The success rate, complication rate and survival were evaluated.

RESULTSAmong the 56 cases, the male to female ratio was 33 to 23, and the average age was [65+/-14 (24-86)] years. Seventeen cases were gastric cancer, 4 duodenal carcinoma, 7 peri-ampulla carcinoma, 13 metastasis cancer and 15 presented recurrence after operations. The success rate of stent implantation was 98.2% (55/56). Forty-nine cases (87.5%) could eat liquid food 1-3 days after operations and eat semifluid food 4-9 days later. Forty-two cases (76.4%)could eat normal food after 10-16 days. The main complications included 14.5% of cases with pain, 1.8% with stent shift, 25.5% with bleeding and no one with perforation. Until January 20, 2008, 53 cases (96.4%) had been followed up. The mean survival time was [139+/-15 (14-332)] days, and the median survival time was 135 days. The re-stenosis rate was 5.7%, including 3 cases, happened in 143, 158 and 190 days after the operations respectively, and was successfully treated by second stent implantation.

CONCLUSIONEndoscopic implantation of self-expanded metal stent is a micro-invasive, safe, effective method for the treatment of gastric outlet obstruction.

This paper analyses the data structure of DICOM standard by the applications in the Non-DICOM format fluoroscopic images converted into the DICOM format images. It puts forward a solution to integrate the Multi-Channel Electrophysiology Recorder System with the X -ray system in the cardio-catheter room.
