New method of prostate cancer has grown more precise with the development of medical imaging.Multi-parametric MRI targeted biopsy and fusion biopsy reduce the cores,at the same time they have similar positive rates compared to systematic biopsy.The most used biopsy methods are still transrectal guided transrectal biopsy and transperineal biopsy in China.If we can predict biopsy result before the operation by physical and laboratory examination,it will help improve the detection rate and avoid repeating biopsies.And it has been indicated that age,tPSA,PSAD,fPSA/tPSA,PV,DRE,PHI and PCA3 are the predicting factors.Chinese Prostate Cancer Consortium Risk Calculator is fit for Chinses people.

AIM: To observe the efficacy of high concentrations of sodium hyaluronate ( 3g/L SH ) for moderate to severe dry eye.
METHODS: Forty moderate to severe dry eye patients were included in the study according to the diagnosis criteria and randomized into two groups. The patients of the trial group received topical administration of high concentration sodium hyaluronate (3g/L), and those of the control group received sodium hyaluronate ( 1g/L ) plus recombinant human epidermal growth factor. The dry eye symptom scores, ocular surface disease index ( OSDI) scores, tear film break-up time ( BUT) , SchirmerⅠ test and corneal fluorescein staining score were evaluated. All the indexes were compared between the two groups 2wk before and after treatment.
RESULTS: There were no significant differences of the indicators between the two groups before treatment. After 2wk treatment, the differences were statistically significant compared to former except for the SchirmerⅠtest. Compared with the control group, the symptom scores and the OSDI scores were lowered. No significant differences were found in the other indicators between these two groups.
CONCLUSION: Topical usage of highconcentrations of sodium hyaluronate (3g/L) is beneficial for remitting the ocular symptoms in moderate to severe dry eyes, and also improve the quality of life of patients.

Objective To evaluate the application status of China Disease Prevention and Control Information System of Hy?datid Disease,in which questions existed are summarized in order to promote the system update. Methods A questionnaire was designed and distributed to Inner Mongolia,Sichuan,Tibet,Gansu,Qinghai,Ningxia,Xinjiang and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps to evaluate the application status of China Disease Prevention and Control Information System of Hydatid Disease assistant with telephone. Results The recovery rate of questionnaires was 87.5%. The statistics of closed questions showed that national application rate of the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System of Hydatid Disease was 100%,of which 15.3%were low frequency users,57.1%believed the system was necessary,28.6%considered it was dispens?able,and 14.3%believed that it was totally unnecessary. The statistics of open?ended questions indicated that 6 endemic regions suggested to increase the guidance and training,while 4 endemic regions had opinions on sharing the information of the national infectious disease reporting systems and hydatid disease prevention and control information system,and the opinions on turning monthly report to quarterly report,and increasing statistics and analysis module,and 3 endemic regions deemed that the system had logic errors and defects. Conclusion The problems of the system are mainly focused on the existence of systemic deficien?cies and logic errors,lacking of statistical parameters and corresponding analysis function module,and lacking of the guidance and training,which limits the use of the system. Therefore,these problems should be resolved.

Objective To explore the effect of behavioral intervention on the quality of life of chronic heart congestive failure patients with urinary incontinence, to further provide basis for more effective clinical nursing measures. Methods 62 patients with chronic heart congestive failure combining urinary incontinence were divided into two groups by random digital table method, the control group and the intervention group, with 31 cases in each group. Patients in the control group received routine nursing care, while patients in the intervention group received behavioral intervention on the basis of routine care. The behavioral intervention included pelvic floor muscle training, pectineus exercise and reconstruction of micturition habits. The effect of the intervention on incontinence, quality of life and depression were observed in two groups. Results 61 patients completed the study, including 30 cases in the intervention group and 31 cases in the control group. There were no significant differences in the scores of the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence Short Form (ICI-Q-SF), the MOS item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) and Zung Self-rating Depression Scale ( SDS) between two groups before the intervention (P>0.05). After 6 weeks of continuous intervention, the scores of ICI-Q-SF and SDS in the intervention group were(8.69±1.94)points and (55.91±4.57) points, which were significantly lower than (11.07±2.14) points and (61.44±5.98) points of the control group (t=5.04, 3.18, P<0.01). About the SF-36, scores of physical functioning and social functioning in the intervention group were (76.77 ±10.34) points and (77.69±6.17) points, which were significantly higher than (60.39±10.07) points and (59.38±8.25) points in the control group (t=43.31, 120.36, P<0.01). Conclusions For chronic heart congestive failure patients with urinary incontinence, behavioral intervention can effectively ameliorate symptoms of urinary incontinence, improve the quality of life and relieve patients' depression, which thereby potentially promote patients′physical and mental health.

Objective To measure 95% effective doses (ED95) of propofol and etomidate by using up-down intravenous administration method, and compare the potency ratio and the anesthesia duration of them. Methods Twenty eight male SD rats were divided into two groups randomly: the propofol group and the etomidate group. Loss of righting reflex was regarded as the judgment index of unconsciousness. The dose-response curve was made according to the formula of Y=Ymin+(Ymax-Ymin)/ [1+10log(ED50-X)× m]. Values of ED95 of propofol and etomidate were calculated, and the anesthesia duration periods after administration of the two equivalent dose drugs were measured respectively. Results The values of ED95 were 9 mg/kg and 1.5 mg/kg for propofol and etomidate. The ED95 ratio for propofol and etomidate was 6. There was a significant difference in anesthesia duration between propofol group (465.6±18.5)s and etomidate group (233.7±9.3)s (P<0.05). Conclusion The anesthesia duration of propofol is longer than that of etomidate, taking the ED95 as equivalent dose.

Astrocytes were traditionally be deemed as supportive cells in the central nervous system.However,recent researches proved astrocytes exerted more important neurophysiological functions,such as regulation of synaptic transmission and integration of neural information.This paper summarized the researches on the functions of astrocytes related to synaptic transmission and analyzed the new features of astrocyte excitability,the communication between neurons and astrocytes and the effect of general anesthetics on astrocytes.Based on these new findings,this paper also suggested the underlying relationship between astrocytes and the loss of consciousness during general anesthesia.

Objective To investigate the pathological change in articular cartilages after firearm injury.Methods Four rabbits from 28 New Zealand healthy rabbits were chosen as control group and subjected to joint capsule incision only. Another 24 rabbits were equally divided into 6 experimental groups( groups B to G) and subjected to medial femoral condyle cartilage surface damage by the nail gun.After the operation, their specimens were collected after 6 h,3 d,7 d,14 d,28 d and 56 d, respectively.Tissue sections were observed and stained by HE staining and toluidine blue staining.The histolopathological changes in articular cartilage after firearm injury were detected.Results The color of articular cartilages in experimental groups became lighter, the cell number increased but then decreased, the articular cartilage layer disappeared, the cell shape became uneven, cells began to cluster and the Mankin score increased, and the statistical differences between experimental groups and control group were significant.Conclusion The histological pathological changes in articular cartilages after fiream injury seem to follow some pattern.The degeneration seems obvious after 7 days and then becomes heavier.
