Objective:To explore the clinical effect ofpaishitang combined with tamsulosin hydrochloride on the patient with up per urinary calculi after extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL).Methods:120 cases with upper urinary calculi in our hospital from January 2015 to September 2016 were selected and divided into two groups according to the random number table,60 cases in each group.ESWL was given to both groups of patients and provided with tamsulosin hydrochloride postoperation,then paishitang were additionally given to the patients in the observation group.The clinical effect and changes of serum creatinine (Scr),neutrophil gelatinase as sociated lipocalin (NGAL),cystatin C (Cys-C) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) levels before and after treatment were compared between two groups.Results:The total effective rate of observation group was 96.67％,which was 86.67％ in the control group,no signifi cant difference was found in the total effective rate between the two groups(P＜0.05).The stone discharge rate was 95.00％ in the observation group,which was significantly higher than that of the control group (P＜0.05);the incidence rate of renal colic was 6.67％,which was significantly lower than that of the control group(P＜0.05),the stone discharge time and the duration of hematuria were significantly shorter than those in the control group (P＜0.01).There was no significant difference in the recurrence rate between the two groups within one year (P＞0.05).The serum NGAL and Cys-C levels of both groups were gradually increased while the GFR levels were gradually decreased on the 1st,2nd day postoperation,but all the index mentioned above gradually recovered on the 3rd day postoperation.The levels of NGAL and Cys-C in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group on the 1st,3rd day postoperation while the GFR was significantly higher in the observation group than those of control group on the 1st,3rd day postoperation(P＜0.01).No significant difference was found in the Scr at different time points postoperation between two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Paishitang combined with tamsulosin hydrochloride had significant clinical effect on thpatient with upper urinary calculus after ESWL and could effectively improve the renal injury induced by ESWL.

Objective To investigate the dynamic changes of plasma myoglobin(Mb),troponinⅠ(TnⅠ) and brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)levels in the course of acute myocardial infrction(AMI)and to detect the best marker for early diagnosis and outcome prediction.Methods Plasma Mb,TnⅠand BNP levels were measured in 49 patients with AMI both before and after thrombolysis therapy and 32 controls.Results Plasma levels of all the three markers were significantly higher in the AMI patients than those in the controls(P

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the use of antibiotics after coronary artery bypass.METHODS Forty patients were assigned into two groups,vancomycin group and cefradine group.Each included 20 patients.We compared the infection cases,cost of hospitalization,and cost of medicine after CABG.RESULTS There were no difference of(infection) between two groups,the cost of hospitalization was fewer in cefradine group.(CONCLUSIONS) The short-term use of cefradine after CABG could achieve the goals of preventing infection of CABG,and save medical resources.

Objective To investigate the angiographic manifestation of the proper esophageal artery (PEA),the hish risk factom for the presence of the anomalous PEA in hemoptysis and to evaluate the safety of transcatheter aaefial embolization(TAE) of the PEA using gelatin sponge(GS).Methods Selective esophageal arteriography WSS performed in forty-three patients with hemoptysis,including 15 cases of pulmonary tuberculosis,18 cases of bmnchiectasis,7 cases of posttuberculous bronchiectasis and three cases of lung cancer. One case experienced failure of bronchial arterial embolization. The angiographic manifestation of the PEAs Was studied.The complications of the procedure and clinical results were observed in the patients who underwent TAE using GS.Results Thirty-nine PEAs were catheterized selectively in 37 patients(86.0%).Eighteen anomalous PEAs(46.2%)were catheterized selectively in 17 patients (45.9%).The anomalous PEAs showed tortuosity,dilatation,hyperplasia,shunting with pulmonary artery and anastomosis with the bronchial artery.All lesions involved basal segment of inferior pulmonary lobar. Bronchiectasis Was the most frequent disease for PEA abnormality. No complications occurred and satisfactory curative effect Was achieved with TAE of the anomalous PEAs.Conclusions It is necessary to perform selective proper esophageal arteriography when the lesion involves basal segment of inferior pulmonary lobar in hemoptysis.Supplemental TAE of the anomalous PEA using GS is safe and valuable in the management of hemoptysis.

Objective To explore the CT findings of mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) of the tracheobronchial tree and improve the diagnostic accuracy. Methods The CT images, histopathological and clinical data in 24 patients with pathologically proved MEC of the tracheobroncbial tree were retrospectively analyzed. Results The clinical symptoms included cough, sputum, fever, wheezing, chest pain and hemoptysis. The patient was proved to be low-grade (n=19) and high-grade (n=5) MEC histopathologically. One lesion was located in trachea, 6 in main bronchus, 12 in lobar bronchus and 5 in segmental, subsegmental and distal bronchus. The tumor presented as no-invasive endotracheobronchial well-defined round-like nodule (n=13, locating in lobar and higher bronchus) and columnar sharp (n=3, locating in main bronchus), or intra-and-extraluminal well-defined round-like nodule or mass (n=6, locating in lobar and lower bronchus) and irregular mass with invasive pattern (n=2, high-grade type). The density of lesion was similar to the muscule and the calcification within lesion was showed in 4 patients on non-enhanced CT. The lesion had marked enhancement in 17 patients on enhanced CT. Obstructive changes were found in 20 patients. Conclusion MEC of the tracheobronchial tree is usually low-grade malignancy and locates in main and lobar bronchus with no-invasive well-defined airway mass, marked enhancement and calcification on CT.

Objective To further understand the clinical manifestations and improve clinical diagnosis of patients with leptomeningeal metastasizing high-grade glioma.Methods Sixteen patients with leptomeningeal metastasizing high-grade glioma (WHO classification:grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ) in Department of Radiotherapy,the First Hospital of Jilin University from July 2010 to September 2015 were respectively analyzed.The pathological types included anaplastic gliomas (1),anaplastic oligodenastrocytoma (1),glioblastoma (12),small-cell glioblastoma (1),gliosarcoma (1).We reviewed the relative clinical manifestations of the patients,and further compared them with 163 patients with systemic malignant solid tumors at corresponding period.Results The median time from initial diagnosis to the diagnosis of leptomeningeal metastasis was 13.0 months (range 2-19 months).Plain and enhanced magnetic resonance imaging was obtained in all patients.The main radiographic characteristics included ependymal enhancement (11),leptomeningeal enhancement (3),nodules of implantation metastasis in spinal canal (1),cranial nerve enhancement (2),and ventricular dilatation (1).Eight patients received cerebrospinal fluid examination.The diagnosis of leptomeningeal metastasis in 15/16 patients was determined by radiographic findings.Comparing with leptomeningeal metastasis from systemic malignant tumors at the corresponding period,the incidence of headache in patients with high-grade glioma was significantly lower (6/16 vs 81.6％ (133/163);x2 =16.3,P ＜ 0.01);and the incidence of cranial nerve paralysis was also significantly lower (4/16 vs 56.4％ (92/163);x2 =5.79,P =0.016 1).The incidence of nerve root symptoms was lower than that of systemic malignant tumors,though without statistically significant difference (2/16 vs 26.4％ (43/163);x2 =1.49,P=0.222).Nine patients respectively received chemotherapy,intrathecal chemotherapy or intrathecal chemotherapy combined with whole brain radiotherapy.The median survival tine was 4.5 months (range 0.7-13.3 months).Conclusions The imaging examination played an important role in the diagnosis of high-grade leptomeningeal metastasizing glioma.Comparing with the systemic malignant solid tumors,the leptomeningeal metastasizing high-grade glioma had its unique clinical characteristics.
