ObjectiveTo evaluate the diagnosis and treatment of primary non-Hodgkin′s lymphoma (PNHL) of the pancreas. MethodThe therapeutic result of 6 cases admitted from January 1980 to March 2000 was reviewed retrospectively. ResultsThe lesion was located in the head of the pancreas in 2 cases and the body and/or tail in 4, respectively. Clinical manifestations included epigastric discomfort, loss of weight, abdominal mass and jaundice. Two cases underwent Whipple′s procedure and distal pancreatectomy respectively, the other 4 underwent laparotomy and biopsy. B cell non-Hodgkin′s lymphoma of 5 cases and T cell non-Hodgkin′s lymphoma of one were verified by pathology. One patient lost follow-up, the other 5 patients survived 58, 49, 22, 13 and 4 months respectively. Conclusion The clinical manifestation and radiological features of PNHL of the pancreas are not specific. Comprehensive therapy including surgery is beneficial to the long-term survival of patients with PNHL of the pancreas.

Objective To investigate value of color Doppler flow imaging(CDFI) and Doppler power imaging(CDPI) in the diagnosis of choroidal detachment(CD). Methods Color Doppler ultrasound was performed in 30 cases with choroidal detachment. At the base of eyeball shape, lens, vitreous and retina examined by ultrasound, intraocular band-shaped echo was examined by CDFI and CDPI, to understand its blood flow. The observation was compared with that of surgical results. Results Of 30 cases with choroidal detachment, the diagnostic positive correspondonce of ultrasound was 80.0%, while ultrasound combined with CDFI and CDPI, the correspondence increased up to 96.7%. The sonographic features of CDFI and CDPI in choroidal detachment patients were abundant blood flow in band-shape or short stick-like. In 3 cases out of 4 cases with retinal detachment, blood flow was not abundant,their blood flow showed a sparked pattern. In addition, 14 cases combined with vitreous hemorrhage, 8 cases had vitreous opacity and 4 cases vitreous proliferation. Ultrasound diagnosis corresponded with that of clinical surgery in 27 choroidal detachment cases. Conclusions Ultrasound combined with CDFI and CDPI provide valuable references for diagnosis and treatment of choroidal detachment.

Objective: To explore the clinical efficacy of a new drug for acute coronary syndrome (ACS), ticagrelor in treating the patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), and to compare the effect between ticagrelor and clopidogrel in order to obtain the prospective information of ticagrelor in clinical practice.
Methods: A total of 307 STEMI patients were divided into 2 groups, Treatment group, the patients received ticagrelor with aspirin, n=157 and Control group, the patients received clopidogrel with aspirin, n=150. With a period of treatment, the major adverse cardiac events (MACE), rate of thrombosis re-formation and routine blood test result were compared between 2 groups.
Results: Treatment group presented the better LVDD, LVEF, platelet level and ST-segment recovery than those in Control group, P<0.05 or P<0.01. Treatment group showed slightly higher rate of side effect such as dififcult breathing and bleeding, while those reaction did not affect the treatment or special management for the patients.
Conclusion: The clinical effect of ticagrelor is similar to clopidogre for improving the platelet level and cardiac function in STEMI patients, while the clinical advantage reported in abroad should be further studied.
