Objective To explore the changes of etiological factors,age of onset,misdiagnosis rates,length of stay and prognosis in central nervous system (CNS) infections between the near 2 decades.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted between hospitalized patients with CNS infections in affiliated Yijishan Hospital of Wannan Medical College from January 1993 to December 2002 (group A,n =346) and from January 2003 to December 2012 (group B,n =412).The proportions of bacterial infections,Mycobacterium tuberculosis infections,Cryptococcus infections and viral infections between the 2 groups were comparable.Age,gender,underlying diseases and prehospitalization applications of immunosuppressant in two groups were analyzed.The data of prehospitalization misdiagnosis rates,length of stay and prognosis of the two groups were also compared.Measurement data were analyzed by variance analysis or t test,and enumeration data were analyzed by x2 test.Results The proportions of bacterial infections,Mycobacterium tuberculosis infections,Cryptococcus infections and viral infections in two groups were 24.3％ vs 20.1％,29.5 ％ vs 35.7 ％,6.6％ vs 11.4％ and 39.6％ vs 32.8％,respectively (x2 =10.61,P＜0.05).Compared with group A,patients in group B were older [(38.8±8.9) years vs (43.8±11.4) years,t=6.73,P＜0.05],with greater numbers of underlying diseases (1.21 ± 0.34 vs 1.72 ± 0.41,t=18.41,P＜ 0.05) and longer pre-use of immunosuppressants [(7.76 ± 3.58) d vs (12.43 ± 5.96) d,t =12.77,P＜ 0.05].There was no significant difference in sex distributions between the two groups (x2 =0.97,P＞0.05).In group A,the misdiagnosis rates for bacterial infections,Mycobacterium tuberculosis infections,Cryptococcus infections and viral infections were 9.5％,42.2％,69.6％ and 12.4％,respectively; average length of stay was (11.02±5.13) d,(19.18±8.34) d,(21.12±9.26) d and (8.24±3.17) d,respectively; and remission rates were 88.1％,60.8％,34.8％ and 80.3％,respectively.In group B,the misdiagnosis rates for bacterial infections,Mycobacterium tuberculosis infections,Cryptococcus infections and viral infections were 8.4％,29.3％,42.6％ and 11.1％,respectively; average length of staywas (10.13±4.25) d,(17.26±5.82) d,(23.05±7.97) d and (7.05±2.94) d,respectively; and remission rates were 90.4％,72.8％,61.7％ and 84.4％,respectively.The misdiagnosis rates and remission rates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infections and Cryptococcus infections between group A and group B were of statistical significance (both P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions With the increase of underlying diseases and wide use of immunosuppressants,the causes of CNS infections are changing,among which Mycobacterium tuberculosis infections and Cryptococcus infections are increasing,with a tendency of misdiagnosis and poor prognosis.

Objective To observe the function improvement of deep venous valve after superficial vein surgery of lower extremity by ultrasound.Methods Sixty patients(70 lower limbs)with primary deep venous insufficiency were enrolled tO accept surgical management of vein systems.All Datients were detected with color Doppler ultrasonography,their deep venous hemodynamics indices were measured and recorded before operation and 6 months after operation. Results The total improvement rate of the deep venous hemodynamics after superficial vein surgery was 65.7%.The valve function of suPerficial femoral vein and popliteal vein were improved after operation,and there was no significant difference between the two veins in effectiveness.The improvement for deep venous reflux had no significant difference between two surgical methods. Conclusions The superficial vein surgery of lower extremity can improve deep vein valve function in some extent.

Objective To explore the value of glypican-3(GPC-3)mRNA and paternally expressed 10(PEG10)mRNA in peripheral blood in diagnosis of metastasis in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). Methods With SYBR Green I as fluorescence signal,real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was employed to detect the expression of GPC-3 mRNA and PEG10 mRNA in peripheral blood from patients with HCC with metastasis(n=8),HCC without metastasis(n=12)and hepatic cirrhosis(n=11),and receiver operator characteristics curve(ROC)and specific parameters were adopted to analyse their value in predictive and exclusive diagnosis. Results The expression of GPC-3 mRNA and PEG10 mRNA in HCC with metastasis was significantly higher than that in HCC without metastasis and in hepatic cirrhosis(P<0.05),while there was no significant difference in the expression of GPC-3 mRNA and PEG10 mRNA between HCC without metastasis and hepatic cirrhosis.In single test,the sensitivities in the differential diagnosis between HCC with metastasis and HCC without metastasis were 66.7%for GPC-3 mRNA and 72.2%for PEG10 mRNA,and the specificities were 91.7%and 91.7%.respectively.The areas under ROC were 0.748 for GPC-3 mRNA and 0.812 for PEG10 mRNA.With two markers in parallel test,the sensitivity,specificity,negative likelihood and diagnostic accuracy were 90.7%,84.O%,0.11 and 83.3%,respectively.In serial test,the sensitivity,specificity,positive likelihood and diagnostic accuracy were 60.5%,98.7%,45.5 and 73.3%,respectively. Conclusion Detection of GPC-3 mRNA and PEG10 mRNA in peripheral blood may help to predict blood metastasis and extrahepatic metastasis of HCC,and PEG10 mRNA works better than GPC-3 mRNA.The serial test of GPC-3 mRNA and PEG10 mRNA is helpful to the predictive diagnosis of peripheral blood metastasis of HCC.

Objective To study the correlations between bone fracture types and healing time in patients with osteofluorosis. Methods Thirty-seven patients with osteefluorosis and long tubular bone fracture were diagnosed in accordance with radiogram retrospectively. The fractures were divided into two groups: sclerotic and osteoporotic. Twenty four fractured patients with non osteofluorosis were included in the study as controls. All of the patients had operation(open reduction and nickelclad internal fixation). Fracture healing in patients with sclerotic and osteoporotic groups was compared with the control group after operation. Results There were notable differenees(F=4.30,P< 0.05) in term of fracture healing time among the three groups [sclerotic group:(18.4±5.3)weeks; osteoporotic group: (24.5±5.1)weeks; control group: (17.6±3.8)weeks]. Notably, there were significant differences between the osteoporotic and control groups(q=2.34,P<0.05), and between sclerotic and osteoporotic gronps(q=2.51, P<0.05). The healing time of the osteoporotic group was longer than that of sclerotic group. The constituent ratios of fracture healing in sclerotic, osteoporotic and control groups were 73.1% (19/26) ,54.5% (6/11),75.0% (18/24) respectively, and the differences among the three groups were statistically significant(X2=3.67,P<0.05). The healing rate of the osteoporotic group was lower than that of sclerotic and control groups(X2=3.12, 3.36, all P< 0.05). The constituent ratios of healing in the sclerotic, osteoporotic and control groups were 26.9% (7/26),45.5% (5/11),25.0%(6/24), respectively, and there differences among the three groups were statistically significant (X2=4.07 ,P<0.05). The delayed healing rate of the osteoperotic group was higher than those of the sclerotic and control groups(X2= 3.87,3.95, all P<0.05). Conclusions Fracture healing time of osteoporotic osteofluorosis after fracture is longer than normal, and the cause might be the loss of bone mass.
