Objective To retrospectivly analyze the value of Pap smear,liquid-based cells, colposcopy and colposcopic cervical biopsy in the diagnosis of cervical cancer. Methods 116 cases of cervical cancer were retrospectively analyzed, and the value of Pap smear,liquid-based cells ,colposcopy,and colposcopic cervical biopsy in the diagnosis of cervical cancer were investigated. Result 116 patients were pathologically diagnosed with cervical cancer before and after surgery. Pap smear was performed for 30 patients (25.9%) ,and 10 patients (33.3%) were detected with HSIL. Liquid-based cells was performed for47 patients (40.5%) ,and 25 patients (53.1%) were detected with HSIL. Colposcopy was performed for 99 patients (85.3%), and 75 patients (75.8 % ) were detected with HSIL or invasive cancer. Preoperative colposcopic biopsy was performed for 99 patients, and the pathological coincidence rate was 94.9%. There was no significant difference statistically between two cytology screening ( P > 0.05 ). There was significant difference statistically between liquid-based cells and colposcopy ( P < 0.01 ). There were significant differences statistically among liquid-based cells,colposcopy ,and colposcopic cervical biopsy ( P <0.01 ). Conclusion Cytology, colposcopy, colposcopic cervical biopsy could not be individually more complete and accurate detection of cervical cancer. Colposcopy,colposcopic biopsy than cytology had higher accurate rate of diagnosis of cervical cancer. A reasonable combination of multiple detection methods could improve the diagnostic accuracy of cervical cancer.

PurposeTo investigate the image quality of Dual Source CT (DSCT) high pitch prospective scan in acute chest pain examination by using triple-rule-out (TRO) protocol and its responses to heart beat rate change.Materials and Methods Thirty-two consecutive patients who planned to undergo TRO acute chest pain examination were enrolled and randomly divided into research group and control group. The conventional retrospective spiral scanning protocol was applied to the patients in the control group, while the high pitch prospective spiral scanning mode was used in the research group. CT value, noise level, SNR, CNR and radiation dosage in aorta and pulmonary arteries were recorded and compared between the two groups, and the image quality of the coronary arteries was scored subjectively.Results No significant difference was found in the aspects such as CT value, noise level, SNR, CNR radiation dosage in aorta and pulmonary arteries (P>0.05); however, the subjective scoring for coronary artery in the research group (85.5%) was significantly lower than that in the control group (93.9%) (χ2=8.33,P<0.05). Considering the influence of severe heart rate changes, we excluded those patients whose heart rate variance was more than 5 beats/min (control group:n=5; research group:n=4) and then compared the image quality of the two groups again. The subsequent results showed no difference (χ2=0.12,P>0.05). In addition, the radiation dosage in the control group was significantly higher than that in the research group [(20.8±6.2) mSvvs. (2.3±0.4) mSv;t=17.142,P<0.01].Conclusion DSCT high pitch prospective scanning in TRO protocol shows high success rate in examining patients with acute chest pain whose heart beat rate is lower than 80 beats/min and heart beat variance is less than 5 beats/min. The image quality has no difference with that derived from retrospective scan but with far more less radiation dose (2.3±0.4) mSv. This method thus is promising and can be widely promoted clinically.

T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 3 (Tim-3) is well known to negatively regulate T cells responses, but its role in burn-induced T cells immune suppression remains unclear. In the present study, in order to identify the relationship between Tim-3 expression and post-burn T cells immune suppression, C57BL/6 mice were subjected to burn injury or sham injury, and the liver and spleen were harvested at the day 1 after operation. The expression level of Tim-3 on hepatic or splenic T cells and the functional properties of Tim-3(+) T cells were evaluated. It was found burn injury induced dramatically elevated Tim-3 expression on both hepatic and splenic CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells in contrast with the post-burn depletion of T cells. Furthermore, Tim-3 expression was correlated with the suppressive phenotype of T cells following burn injury, including increased expression of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10, decreased expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines IFN-γ and TNF-α, reduced T cell proliferation and elevated co-expression of Tim-3 and PD-1. Moreover, Tim-3(+) T cells subsets were more prone to spontaneous apoptosis than Tim-3(-) T cells subsets. Our findings reinforce the idea that the up-regulated expression of Tim-3 on T cells after burn injury plays an important role in the development and maintenance of burn-induced T cell immune suppression.

Totally 1136 individuals aged over 40 underwent health check up in March to May 2009. Fasting blood glucose, 2-h post-challenge blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin A1c ( HbA1c), total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and serum uric acid were measured. The diagnosis of metabolic syndrome was based on the International Diabetes Federation Criteria. The results shows that total body fat, region body fat indices, blood pressure, blood glucose and serum uric acid levels increased with the age ( P < 0.01) . The prevalence rate of metabolic syndrome in this group of individuals were 15. 1% (171/1136) , and increased with age (P<0.01). The most common combination of metabolic syndrome was central obesity-hypertension-dyslipidemia (40. 9% , 70/171). Unconditional logistic regression revealed that waist-hip-ratio, body mass index and uric acid were the risk factors for metabolic syndrome.

Objective To analyze and compare clinical application of two types of clavicular hook plates. Methods From September 2000 to October 2003, 33 cases with acromioclavicular joint dislocation (Tossy Ⅲ) or distal clavicle fractures (Neer Ⅱ) were treated with insertion type (AO/ASIF) or knuckle-protruded type (WALDEMAR LINK) clavicular hook plates. The former one was used in 18 cases and the latter one in 15. Results In insertion type group, the average operation time was 28 minutes, with average incision length for 7.6 cm. All the cases got good reduction and fixation without any subluxation, except for one case suffering from impingement of the shoulder joint. In knuckle-protruded type group, the average operation time was 40 minutes, with an average incision length for 9.8 cm. After operation, one case lost hooking-up, one had born shoulder joint impingement, while another two suffered from skin pain at acromion caused by hook tip for a long time. Except for one case losing hooking-up, all cases of both groups achieved good recovery of function of shoulder joint and won satisfactory reduction without any redislocation after the implants being taken out. Conclusion Because of the advantages like convenient manipulation, short operation time, minor incisions and less potential complications, the insertion type clavicular hook plate is more suitable for cases with Tossy Ⅲ or Neer Ⅱ fractures.
