3.Integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy for acute and chronic cholecystitis
Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2017;33(5):838-842
Acute and chronic cholecystitis is often complicated by gallstones.With the rapid development of modern surgery,especially the renovation in surgical concepts,techniques,and methods represented by noninvasive surgery,surgery becomes the most important method for the treatment of such disease.However,surgical treatment is also limited by different disease stages,disease onset status,and individual factors.As an indispensible part of the whole treatment system for such disease,non-surgical treatments,especially integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy,still have unique advantages.This article briefly summarizes the history of the treatment of acute and chronic cholecystitis and related hot topics and controversies,as well as the concepts and methods of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy.

Traditional theories on information management have made an extreme of studies and practice on medical informatics, which has hampered the development of medical informatics. Knowledge management is a brand new theory based on information and aiming at innovation of knowledge, and is in accordance with the nature of medical informatics. Medical informatics based on knowledge management promotes management of medical information, which not only benefits the integration and development of disciplines of medical informatics, also benefits hospital informatization, implementation of evidence-based medicine, and education in medical informatics. Basic studies on medical informatics, personnel training and management should be guided by knowledge management theory in the field of informatics.

Objective To investigate radionuclide imaging and routine CT in diagnosing hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) and the combined diagnostic value of the two modalities. Methods Thirty-two patients with hepatic FNH were retrospectively studied. All patients underwent routine CT scan. Twenty-four patients were examined by 99Tcm-sulfur colloid (SC) hepatic planar scintigraphy and SPECT/CT imaging, and then patients who had abnormal foci underwent 99Tcm-diethyl iminodiacetic acid (EHIDA) triple-phase hepatobiliary imaging. x2 -test of four-table or Fisher exact probabilities in 2 × 2 table was applied for statistical analysis. Results Of all 32 patients pathologically diagnosed as FNH with single solitary nodule, 25 were classified as classic type and the rest 7 as non-classic type. Although routine CT found all hepatic lesions, only 15 cases were diagnosed pathologically as FNH classic type but the rest were either misdiagnosed or left as indeterminate. On radionuclide imaging (hepatic colloid scintigraphy plus triple-phase hepatobiliary images), 11 patients with big foci (with maximal diameter >3 cm) out of 24 patients were correctly diagnosed as FNH, with 7 diagnosed as classic type FNH and 4 as non-classic. Other 13 patients were either misdiagnosed or simply missed. The diagnosing rates of routine CT and radionuclide imaging were60.0% (15/25) and 38.9% (7/18) for FNH classic type, 0/7 and 4/6 for non-classic type,50.0% (10/20) and 73.3% (11/15) for big foci, 41.7% (5/12) and 0/9 forsmall foci (with maximal diameter≤3 cm), respectively. The total diagnosing rate of radionuclide imaging combined with routine CT was significantly higher than that of routine CT or radionuclide imaging alone ( x2 = 4. 48, P < 0. 05;x2 =4.27, P <0.05 ). Conclusion Radionuclide imaging in combination with routine CT may improve the diagnostic accuracy for hepatic FNH patients.

Objective To analyse the flow characteristics in the true lumen and false lumen,and the relationship between the flow characteristics and the collapse degree of the true lumen using MRI.Methods Eleven patients with acute Stanford type B aortic dissection were examined by true FISP、3D CE MRA、PC cine MRI on a Siemens Sonata 1.5 T.Not only the quantitative data on the hemodynamics such as peak velocity,average velocity,average flow volume,forward volume,retrograde volume and net volume,and the area of the true lumen and false lumen can be acquired,but also the blood flow model,ie the velocity-mapping.Then we analysed the relationship between the flow characteristics and the collapse degree of the true lumen.Results The average area of the false lumen in the proximal descending aorta(about 2 cm distal to the entry)was(8.10±2.93)cm2,and(2.59±0.93)cm2 of the true lumen in the same slice (P<0.05).The average velocity in the false lumen,(2.81±0.73)cm/s,was significantly lower than in the true lumen[(15.52±2.84)cm/s,P<0.01],wheras the average flow(36.32±5.37)ml/s,was not significantly difierent(P>0.05)from the average flow in the false lumen(37.62±24.58)ml/s.The velocity-mapping curve looked like same in the true and false lumen in this level.And in the abdominal aorta(about the level of the hepatic hilar),the average flow(10.46±5.57)cm/s was significantly lower(P<0.05)than in true lumen[(4.04±2.96)cm/s].At this level,the direction of blood flow in the true lumen was retrograde(upward)in the mid and late systolic phase in six patients,and normal in the diastolic phase and early systolic phase,that was to say,bidirectional blood flow can be caught in the true lumen of the abdominal aorta.The collapse degree of the true lumen was closely correlated with the the average velocity and the flow volume in the false Iumen,and the coefficient correlation and P value were 0.931 and 0.000,0.926 and 0.000 respectively.Conclusions PC cine MRI can quantitatively measure the peak velocity,average velocity,average flow volume,forward volume,retrograde volume and net volume,and combined with 3D CE MRA can evaluate the collapse degree of the true lumen.It is important for clinical application in the diagnosis,therapeutic management and the therapeutic opportunity choice of the acute Stanford type B aortic dissection.
