Objective To discuss clinical characteristics and surgical treatment of patients with pulmo?nary inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor(PIMT). Methods From April 2010 to June 2015 in Beijing Tiantan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, there were 15 cases patients diagnosed as PIMT and trea?ted. The clinical datas of the patients were analyzed retrospectively. The main clinical manifestations,pathological results,clinical treatment and prognosis of the patients and follow?up outcome were analyzed. Results There were 10 males and 5 females,at the age of 39 to 6 8 years old with the median age of 52. Among the 15 cases of patients with PIMT,1 case was recurrence,14 cases were initial treatment. The treatment reason was due to the abnormal physical examination,or cough and sputum with blood,or chest pain,or chest tightness or fever. Chest CT showed that the mass was round or class round, lobulated, part of them showed the burr shape edge. Immunohistochemistry showed that Vimentin positive and smooth muscle actin positive. All patients accept?ed the open chest or thoracoscope surgery. The main operations concluded partial resection,lobectomy or lobecto?my with lymph node eradication. No perioperative death occured,no complications such as postoperative bleed?ing,bronchial pleural fistula and other complications happened. The average follow?up time was from 8 to 58 months. Follow?up rate was 100. 0%(15/15). There was no tumor recurrence. Conclusion The clinical mani?festations of the pulmonary inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is complex. The PIMT should be confirmed by pathologic examination,the main treatment is surgical resection with good prognosis and lower recurrence.

BACKGROUND:Ultrasonic therapy is one of several physical therapy modalities suggested for the management of pain and loss of function due to osteoarthritis. However, its effectiveness stil remains controversial in the previous studies.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the effect of ultrasonic therapy for the treatment of relieving knee osteoarthritis pain.
METHODS:A retrieval of Pubmed, Ovid/Medline, Ovid/EMBASE, and Cochranee database was performed. The relevant literatures were manual y retrieved. The retrieval deadline was set on March 31, 2014. Randomized control ed trials on ultrasonic therapy of knee osteoarthritis were col ected.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of eight studies of meta-analysis were accumulated. Among them, six studies adopted visual analog scale and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index, one study adopted visual analog scale only, and one study adopted Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index. Then the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index scores were transformed into visual analog scale scores for data analysis. There was a statistical difference between the groups in the visual analog scale pain score (standardized standard deviation:-0.51;95%confidence interval:-0.68,-0.33;P=0.05). Ultrasonic therapy is an effective method for knee osteoarthritis pain.
