Objective This study was undertaken to evaluate the ecological association between terrestrial natural radionuclide,indoor radon concentration,natural radioactivity and leukemia incidence among children under 18 years of age.Methods Data were gathered from the disease surveillance program and literature reading while software SPSS 13.0 was used to calculate the Spearman's correlation.Results The incidence rates of childhood(0-18 year)leukemia showed significant differences in different places with the highest as 3.13/105in Jiangmen area and the lowest as 0.42/105 in Maoming area.The incidence in Jiangmen was 7.45 times higher than that in Maoming.There was a rank correlation between the incidence of childhood leukemia and the mean concentrations of natural radio-nuclides in soll(226Ra and 232Th),with a Positive correlation observed for overall leukemia(rs=0.70,P=0.011;rs=0.66,P=0.02 for226 Raand 232Th respectively)and acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL)(rs=0.66,P=0.019;rs=0.64,P=0.025 for 226 Ra and 232Th respectively).Associations between the incidence of childhood leukemia and the indoor γ radiation dose rate,the total annual average effective dose equivalent from natural background radiation were also analyzed(both rs=0.59,P=0.042).Conclusion The natural radioactivity was likely to be a causative factor for childhood leukemia in Guangdong.

Objective: To explore the peri-operative treatment and 3 years post-operative outcome in patients with rheumatic mitral valve stenosis and small left ventricle. Methods: A total of 152 patients with rheumatic mitral valve stenosis and severe pulmonary hypertension were studied. According to left ventricular end diastolic index (LVEDI) value, the patients were divided into 2 groups: Small left ventricle (Small) group, the patients with LVEDI value≤60 mm, n=67 and Non-small left ventricle (Non-small) group, the patients with LVEDI value>60 mm,n=85. Peri-operative condition and follow-up parameters were compared between 2 groups. Results: Compared with Non-small group, Small group had increased pre-operative CVP, SPAP and decreased LVEDV, LVEDVI and RVEF at admission, all P<0.05. All patients had liver damage at admission, the indexes (except alkaline phosphatase) were higher in Small group than Non-small group, and the function was recovered prior operation by proper treatment. The immediate post-operative SPAP in Small group and Non-small group were (67.3.1±23.4) mmHg and (61.3±26.9) mmHg, P>0.05. There were 52 severe pulmonary hypertension patients received iloprost inhalation, their SPAP was decreased than non-inhalation patients at incision closing; SPAP was lower in Small group inhalation patients than Non-small group inhalation patients, all P<0.05. Post-operative LVEDVI was lower and SPAP was higher in Small group than Non-small group. At 3 years post-operation, LVEDVI, RVEF increased, NYHA classification decreased and 6MWT prolonged in both groups; while LVEDVI was lower and 6MWT was shorter in Small group than Non-small group, P<0.05. The median survival time at (3.7±1.6) years post-operation was shorter in Small group than Non-small group,P<0.05, while the mortality was similar between 2 groups (2.6% vs 2.0%),P>0.05. Conclusion: The patients with mitral valve stenosis and small left ventricle had the worse pre-operative condition and higher risk in surgery; peri-operative treatment could improve their cardiac and liver function, but they still had the shorter post-operative median survival time.
