Objective To evaluate CT manifestations and pathologic findings of thyroglossal cyst.Methods CT manifestations,clinical materials and pathological findings of 12 cases with thyroglossal defined by pathology were analysed.Results Of 12 cases,the the lesions were located at the center line of the neck in 8 cases and at left of the neck in 4 cases.The cysts were round or oblate in shape on CT scans.In 5 cases the walls of cyst were smooth and no enhanced;while in other 7 cases the cystic walls were coarse and enhanced evidently which there were infiltration of inflammatory cell microscopic examination.The nodules at cystic wall which were composed by blood vessel,striated muscle and connective tissue on pathology could be seen on CT scans while if these nodules were minor,they could hardly to be showed by CT.Conclusion CT can make a proper diagnosis of thyroglossal cyst.

Objective To study factors associated with necrosis and calcification of cyst echinococcosis. Methods This study retrospectively analyzed 191 cases of hepatic cycstic echinococcosis admitted from 2005 to 2008 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University Department of General Surgery, possible relevant factors screened were the patients' gender, age, operation frequency, hepatitis, gall stones, calcium of blood serum, multiple hepatic hydatid cyst, biliary fistulae and hepatic cycstic echinococcosis degeneration. Single-factor analysis and multi-factors analysis were conducted. Results The single-factor independent samples t-test showed that age is significantly related to hepatic cycstic echinococcosis degeneration (t = - 2. 455, P = 0. 008). Single factor Chi-square test showed that factors impacting on hepatic cycstic echinococcosis degeneration were multiple hepatic hydatid cyst and the biliary fistulae (x2 = 6. 848, P = 0. 009; x2 = 7. 149, P = 0. 008). The multiple-factor Logistic regression analysis showed that the age, the multiple hepatic hydatid cyst, and biliary fistulae are the related risk factors(x2 =5. 306,P = 0. 021,OR = 1. 665;x2 = 10. 377,P =0. 001,OR =3. 300;x2 = 4.455,P =0. 035, OR =2. 164) of hepatic cycstic echinococcosis patients with cyst echinococcosis degeneration. Conclusions Age, multiple hepatic hydatid cyst and biliary fistulae are the risk factors associated with degenerative necrosis and calcification of hepatic echinococcosis.

Objective:Surgery intervention and its effect on pregnancy heart disease were explored. Meth-ods:Retrospective review of 34 cases of pregnancy heart disease who needed surgery intervention from Jan, 2000 to Dec,2007 was done. Results:17 patients had percutaneous balloon mitral valve (PBMV) dilatation, the area of mitral valve enlarged markedly postoperatively ( P <0.01 ). 9 patients had open chest surgery un-der extracorpory circulation,7 of them had re-replacement mechanical valve due to mechanical valve throm-bosis. One patient had left atrium mucomamectomy. One patient had Wad's sinus breakout and repairmen. 5 patients had Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) for supraventricular tachycardia. 3 patients had int-racardiac device (ICD) for Ⅲ grade atrioventicular block. 22 patients had cardiac function as grade Ⅲ～Ⅳ and postoperatively recovered to grade Ⅰ～Ⅱ . All 34 patients were alive after treatment, 23 fetus were alive (67.6%), and no adverse results were found during the follow-up. Conclusions:When patients who had pregnancy heart disease need surgery intervention, individualized treatment plan should be made by multidis-cipline experienced doctors according to different heart disease and cardiac function.

Objective To investigate the effect of nursing rescue process on traffic accident aid to orthopedic patients . Methods Sixty patients with bone injuries from traffic accidents during April to December 2013 were set as control group , in which the traditional aid process was used for rescue, and another 60 patients during January to June 2014 as experiment group, in which the nursing aid process was applied. The two groups were compared in terms of rescue time and effectiveness. Result The rescue time in the experiment group was significantly shorter and the first aid effectiveness was also better than those in control group (P<0.01). Conclusion By nursing aid process, the personnel can be optimized to avoid chaos during the rescue and meanwhile the time for rescue is shortened, which can contribute the increased success rate.

Objective The clinical and endoscopic characteristics of ischemic colitis (IC) were retrospectively reviewed. Methods 23 aged patients with IC were included; their symptoms,signs,laboratory findings and endoscopic appearances analysed. Results IC occurred most frequently in mid-aged and elders with predominant presentations as acute onset of lower abdominal pains and bloody stools.Endoscopic lesions located mainly in left colon with segmental distribution.Mucosal edema,erosion and submucosal bleeding were common pathological features.Most lesions (91％ ) looked to be nongangrenous, transient and reversible.Only 9 percent of cases turned into chronic stage. Conclusion IC should be suspected in all eldly patients with acute onset of lower abdominal pain and bloody stools.Early colonoscopy is of diagnostic significance.

Objective To detect clopidogrel effect with light transmission aggregometry (LTA)and flow cytometry (FC). Methods ①Venous blood samples were taken from 71 inpatient with acute corotary syndrome (ACS)in PLA General Hos-pital,including unstable anqina,ST segment elevation myocardial infarction and non ST segment elevation myocardial infarc-tion (46 males,25 females)by random number table from June 2011 to March 2012,whose average age was 69(57~92).②All of them were served 160 mg aspirin and 300 mg clopidogrel after they were in hospital in the beginning,and then served with 75 mg/d clopidogrel for 6 months.On some day,firstly,they were required withdrawing drug for 10 days,and then ve-nous blood samples were separately taken from them before their served-clopidogrel again and their severd-clopidogrel 2 hours later.③The samples were assayed with LTA and FC simultaneously and the platelet aggregation rates before served-clopidogrel (ADPLTA-before serving ),platelet aggregation rates after served-clopidogrel (ADPLTA-after serving ),inhibition rates (ADPLTA-INDU ),PAC-1 activity percentage before served-clopidogrel (PAC-1 before serving ),PAC-1 activity percentage after served-clopidogrel (PAC-1 after serving ),inhibition rates (PAC-1 INHI ),CD62p activity percentage before served-clopidogrel (CD62pbefore serving ),CD62pactivity percentage after served-clopidogrel (CD62pafter serving ),inhibition rates (CD62pINHI )weregotten.All volunteers were signed informed consents and the experiment was approved by the hospital ethics committee.Re-sults ①The paired samples t-test was (t=-2.082,P =0.041)between ADPLTA-before serving (0%~97%)and ADPLTA-after serving (12%~97%),the paired samples t-test was (t = 3.663,P < 0.01)between PAC-1 before serving (15.1% ~ 78.9%)and PAC-1 after serving (14.5% ~ 78.3%);the paired samples t-test was (t = 2.082 and P = 0.041)between CD62pbefore serving (1.5% ~80.8%)and CD62pafter serving (1.4%~41.4%).②The pearson coeffcient correlation results were:ADPLTA-INDU (0%~28.2%) and PAC-1 INHI (0.6%~ 9.1%)(r = 0.297,P = 0.012);ADPLTA-INDU (0% ~ 28.2%)and CD62pINHI (0.1% ~ 48.5%)(r =0.220,P =0.065);PAC-1 INHI (0.6%~9.1%)and CD62pINHI (0.1%~48.5%)(r=0.736,P <0.001).Conclusion Because the correlation was bad between the inhibition rates of clopidogrel detected by FC and them by LTA,FC didn’t apply to clin-ical routine examination of the platelet aggregation.But it could be used to scientific researchs and auxiliary confirmation of routine examination results.
