Objective To evaluate the efficacy of thoracic cavity perfusion with cisplatin combined with mannan peptide in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with malignant pleural effusion.Methods 47 cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with malignant pleural effusion with a median age of 50 years old (41-70 years old) were enrolled.Pleural effusion occurred at 38.5 months on average after diagnosis,unilateral effusion was seen in 45 patients (95.7 ％),bilateral effusion was seen in 2 patients (4.2 ％).Cisplatin combined with mannan peptide was administered through pleural puncture by PICC center vein pipe after drainage.Data of survival complications and response to the treatment were reviewed.Results 17 patients (36.1％) had a complete remission (CR),21 patients (44.6 ％) had partial remission (PR),and the total remission rate (CR+ PR) was 80.9 ％.The median survival time was 10.5 months.Patients with pleural fluid pH ≥ 7.2,glucose ≥ 60 mg/L,and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) ＜ 600 U/L showed association with good efficacy,the efficacy rates were 85.0 ％ (34/40),86.5 ％ (32/37),89.5 ％ (34/38),the median survival time were 11.5,12.0,12.5 months.Pleural fluid pH ＜ 7.2,glucose ＜ 60 mg/L,and LDH ≥ 600 U/L showed association with poor efficacy,the efficacy rates were 42.8 ％ (3/7),50.0 ％ (5/10),44.4 ％ (4/9),the median survival time were 6.5,6.5,6.0 months (P ＜ 0.05).The curative effect of the patients with bone metastasis and (or) pulmonary metastasis without liver metastasis was more similar with that of the patients with liver metastases [(47.0 ％ (16/34) vs 57.1％ (4/7),x2 =0.01,P =0.29].But median survival time had significant difference (11.0 vs 6.0 months,P =0.02).The Cox multi-factor analysis confirmed that the LDH value of effusion was an independent factor as prognosis evaluation.Major side effects of the treatment included fever,chest pain,nausea and vomiting.Conclusion Thoracic cavity perfusion using cisplatin combined with mannan peptide is effective in the treatment of malignant pleural effusion in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with pleural effusion,with relatively low toxicity.LDH value is a predictive factor for survival.The patients with liver metastases appeare poor median survival time.

Objective To identify the key factors triggering medical disputes induced by differences in cognition between doctors and patients in order to control the occurrence and development of medical disputes. Methods From 2002 to 2006,the outpatients,inpatients and medical staff of 3 hospitals in Shanghai(class 3 first level general hospital,n=2;class 3 first level special hospital,n=1) were investigated,and random sampling method was employed for the research analysis. Results There were significant differences between doctors and patients in cognition of influential factors triggering medical disputes such as health law,medical services,rights and obligations. Conclusion The differences in cognition between doctors and patients are important causes for medical disputes,and effective prevention and intervention measures must be taken.

Objective To analyze the imaging manifestations of chondromyxoid fibroma,so as to improve diagnostic accuracy.Methods The X-ray,CT and MRI manifestations of 8 cases with chondromyxoid fibroma confirmed by surgical pathology were analyzed retrospectively.Results All of 8 cases were in the long tubular bones.X-ray showed oval,well defined,eccentric,radiolucent lesion with surrounding sclerosis.The thick dense bony or coarse reticular septation were seen in 6 cases.CT scan showed osteolytic,surrounding sclerosis,and 1 case with foci of calcification.MRI images showed a low or medium signal on T1WI,high signal on T2WI,1 case with a equal T1WI and slight high T2WI signal intensity peripheral rim around.Two cases with diffused enhancement on T1WI after intravenous injection of gapentetate acid meglumine injection and a peripheral liner enhancement in 1 case.Conclusion Chondromyxoid fibroma has certain imaging characteristics,but should be combined with X-ray,CT and MRI to differentiate from other bone tumors with similar imaging manifestations.

Objective:To identify the healing effect of electrospun silk fibroin-BMP-2 as a biologic pulp capping agent to inflammatory pulp in rat caused by lipopolysaccharide ( LPS) .Methods:A total of 30 healthy adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups:(1) normal control group without operation;(2) blank control group without capping agents;(3) calcium hydroxide capping group;(4) electrospun silk fibroin capping group;(5) electrospun silk fibroin-BMP-2 capping group .Bilateral up-per first molars of each rat in group 2-5 were drilled to expose the pulp to LPS which was used to estab-lish a model of inflammatory pulp .The exposed pulp was capped with different capping agents or without capping agents.Then the hole was sealed.The animals were sacrificed on days 3, 7, and 14 post-opera-tion and histological analysis was carried out , including HE stain and CD 14 immunohistochemical stain . Results:On day 7 and 14 , the lowest inflammatory reaction score in HE stain among pulp capping groups was that of silk fibroin-BMP-2 group .The next were calcium hydroxide group and silk fibroin group .That of blank control group was the highest .The ranking of reparative dentine scores of those groups was just reversed.The D values of immunohistochemical stain of CD 14 were not significantly different in groups applied pulp capping agents but significantly lower than blank control group on days 3 and 7.However, the D value of silk fibroin-BMP-2 group ( 0 .145 ±0 .011 ) was significantly lower than blank control group (0.287 ±0.019), calcium hydroxide group (0.170 ±0.017) and silk fibroin group (0.175 ± 0 .018 ) on day 14 .Conclusion:Electrospun silk fibroin compounded with BMP-2 promoted wound hea-ling of exposed pulp and had better potential to stimulate formation of reparative dentine to establish a suitable environment for pulp recovery .

Objective To summarize the clinical and pathological characteristics of incidental gallbladder carcinoma,analyze the factors such as surgical procedures,tumor stages that associated with prognosis,and standardize the diagnosis and treatment strategy of incidental gallbladder carcinoma. Methods Between January 1991 and October 2009,27 incidental gallbladder carcinoma patients were treated in Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH).A retrospective study was performed based on the clinical data of these patients to evaluate the methods of diagnosis,curative treatment and prognosis. Results Twenty-seven patients were collected (8 male and 19 female) with the mean age of (68.3 ± 1.9)years.Abdominal pain,obstructive jaundice and fever were the main symptoms of incidental gallbladder carcinoma.All the 27 cases underwent open cholecystectomy based on preoperative tentative diagnosis of benign disease,and carcinoma of gallbladder was confirmed by postoperative pathology.In this group(9 lowdifferentiation,9 moderate-differentiation,4 high-differentiation and 5-carcinogenesis from adenoma).Two cases were on the stage of Nevin Ⅰ,5 on Nevin Ⅱ,8 on Nevin Ⅲ,5 on Nevin Ⅳ and 7 on Nevin Ⅴ.The survival terms were of statistic significance between the radical cholecystectomy groups and simple cholecystectomy groups(x2 =4.450,P=0.035); The prognosis of patients on stages Ⅰ、Ⅱ are better than those who are on stages Ⅲ、Ⅳ、Ⅴ (x2 = 6.825,P = 0.014). Conclusion The clinical manifestations of incidental gallbladder carcinoma are diverse,which usually lead to misdiagnosis.Frozen section examination during operation is key to diagnose incidental gallbladder carcinoma.Surgical operation is the first choice of therapy,offering much better prognosis than those received simple cholecystectomy.

A total of 1342 individuals underwent physical examinations according to the criteria of metabolic syndrome of International Diabetes Federation (IDF) in 2005.And 314 patients with metabolic disorders were screened for diabetes by standard meal and methods oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT).Newly diagnosed diabetics was 12 (4.1％ ) vs.17 (5.8％) respectively.No significant difference existed between two methods (P =0.332).Kendall's (τ)b =0.313,Kendall's (τ)c =0.208 and Gamma coefficient =0.580 (P =0.000).The mixed meal method was correlated with OGTT,Kappa =0.258 (P =0.000) and two methods were consistent.Diabetic screening should be stressed in the subjects with metabolic abnormalities.And the detecting efficiency of postprandial plasma glucose is similar to OGTT.
