Objective To analyze the etiology in pancreatic pseudocyst (PPC). Methods Medical records were reviewed and analyzed for 366 PPC patients who were admitted in Changhai hospitals from April 2000 to December 2009 in terms. Demographic data, etiology and primary disorders of PPC patients were recorded. Results The causes of 366 patients varied as follow: gallstones in 158 patients (43.2%);idiopathic in 79 (21.6%); alcohol in 50 (13.7%); trauma in 17 (4.6%); pancreatic tumor in 9 (2.5%);hyperlipidemia in 8 (2.2%); post-operative in 7 (1.9%), other in 38 (10.3%). Depending on Atlantes classification systerm the PPCs were classified into acute PPC in 204 patients (64.2%), chronic PPC in 98 patients (30.8%) and abscess in 16 patients (5.0%). The 4 most common causes of acute PPC were gallstones, idiopathic, alcohol and trauma; the 3 most common causes of chronic PPC were gallstones,idiopathic, alcohol. Conclusions Gallstones is the main etiologic cause of the PPCs in China, followed by idiopathic and alcohol, which is significantly different with that in Western countries.

Objective The combination of vasopressin and epinephrine has long been thought to be more effective then epinephrine alone in cardiopulrnonary resuscitation (CPR), evidence is not enough to make such a clinical recommendation. This meta-analysis compared the efficacy of vasopressin and epinephrine used together versus epinephrine alone in cardiac arrest (ca) in order to verify the truth. Method MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched for the data of randomized trials in comparing the results of co-administration of vasopressin and epinephrine with epinephrine alone in adults with cardiac arrest. The primary outcome was the restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Results Six randomized trials in 485 articles were analyzed. We failed to get the results supporting the effectiveness of this combination therapy, except for the rate of 24 hours survival (OR: 2.99,95%CI:1.43 ~ 6.28). No evidence supported that vasopressin combined with epinephrine was better than epinephrine alone in ROSC. Conclusions This systematic review indicates the combination of vasopressin and epinephrine is better for the rate of 24 hpurs survival in only 122 patients. Further investigation is needed to support the use of combination therapy for cardiac arrest.
