Objective To understand the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of primary gastrointestinal non-Hodgkin lymphomas (PGINHL) and analyze the differences between T-cell and B-cell lymphomas.Methods.The characteristics of 51 PGINHL patients were analyzed regarding to their clinical manifestations,diagnosis,treatments and outcomes.Results 51 cases of PGINHL meeting the WHO(2008) criteria were identified.The median age of the patients at the time of diagnosis was 56 years old and the male ∶ female ratio was 1.44∶1,35 cases (68.7 ％) had B-lineage and 16 cases (31.3 ％) had T-cell lineage lymphomas.Compared to those with B-cell lymphoma,patients with T-cell lymphoma presented with a greater incidence of such symptoms as hematochezia,diarrhea and night sweating (P ＜ 0.05).After eliminating MALT lymphoma,prognosis of T-cell lymphoma and B-cell lymphoma had no significant difference.Conclusion In PGINHL cases,B-cell lymphomas appeare to be more common and have better prognosis than T-cell lymphomas.

Progressing vasopressor-refractory hypotension is a major contributor to the high mortality of septic shock.The effect of corticosteroids on peripheral vascular circulation recovery and immune modulation is crucial to the survival of patients with septic shock .However, despite more than fifty years of animal experiments and human trials, the role of corticosteroid therapy in septic shock , its proper applications including dosage, duration and withdrawal remain uncertain and controversial .This paper reviews the development of research , the mechanism, application, and the future direction of low-dose glucocorticoids in the treatment of septic shock .

WHO has issued three editions of pathologic classification of bladder urothelial carcinoma in 1973,1999 and 2004.The 1973 version classification had been widely and the longest applied.However,WHO 2004 classification had been prevalent in past years.There were two issues in the applications of WHO 2004 classification.On one hand,there were some difficulties in quick grading in a given case.On the other hand,there were some misunderstandings in the conversion of different WHO classification.In this article,the changes of different pathologic classification of bladder urothelial carcinoma were reviewed and the outline of different pathologic classification was generalized.The criterion of all the systems was cell anaplasia.In WHO 1973 version classification,the definition of the various grades was vague.It was relatively precise in WHO 1999 classification.However,the grading of Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ in WHO 1999 classification still remained confusions.The major changes in WHO 2004 classification was that this system divided urothelial carcinoma into low-and high-grade,which may solve the heterogenesis of grade Ⅱ in the other two classifications.

Objective To investigate the similarities and differences of incomplete Kawasaki disease and typical Kawasaki disease,in order to provide basis for early diagnosis and treatment.Methods The clinical and laboratory data of 60 children with Kawasaki disease were retrospectively analyzed.Results The incidence rate of symptoms in clinical diagnostic criteria was lower in incomplete Kawasaki disease than that in typical Kawasaki disease(x2 =16.46,10.10,11.71,34.43,all P ＜ 0.01).No statistical differences of leukocytes,platelet,erythrocyte sedim-entation rate and C-reactive protein were found in the incomplete Kawasaki disease and typical Kawasaki disease(x2 =0.04,0.12,0.04,0.26,all P ＞ 0.05).The incidence rate of coronary artery lesions had significant difference between incomplete Kawasaki disease and typical Kawasaki disease (x2 =31.43,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The early diagnosis of Kawasaki disease could be confirmed by representative clinical characteristics,laboratory examination and ultrasound cardiogram.

MicroRNA (miRNA) are a class of endogenous single -stranded non-coding RNA, which regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally by combining with the target mRNA and play a vital role in biological and pathological processes including the growth of organism , metabolic regulation, disease prediction and intervention.Thus miRNA detection is of considerable significance in disease diagnosis and the research of miRNA function.Because of the restriction factors about miRNA itself such as short sequence, low abundance and highly homologous , traditional methods for miRNA detection cannot meet the current demands due to the limitations like unsatisfactory sensitivity and complicated operation .This review summarizes the newly development about signal amplification -based methods for miRNA, including the advantages and limitations of all kinds of novel methods , and highlights the future trends as well.

The reform in cultivating professional-degree programs in Clinical Medicine Education contributes to the transformation of training mode, which surpasses the connotative bounds of the inherent education management. The personalized training of students has made it more challenging for both the tutor and the faculty to involve in education management, the effectiveness of which is highly valued due to the pressing need for sound medical ethics. Furthermore, the development of information technology calls for the reform of education management as well as the emphasis of student-centered approach. This article summa-rizes the existing problems of current education management mode for master degree programs of profes-sional clinical medical education. In addition, a three-level management system composed of medical experts is brewed and put forth. This system, based on compensation and restraint, assessment and incentive, ser-vice as well as security, is meant to facilitate the training of application-oriented medical talents.

Objective To analyze the double contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (DCUS) features of periamupullary carcinoma for enhancing the ultrasound diagnostic value of the disease.Methods The DCUS and clinical data of 40 patients with periampullary carcinoma confirmed by histopathology were reviewed.Results (1) The displaying rate of the lesions and the judgment of lesion location was statistically higher on DCUS than that of ordinary ultrasound (P ＜ 0.05).(2) DCUS features of periampullary carcinoma:the size of most lesions was less than 30 mm except for 1 case in which no lesion was found; In 100％ (39/39) of the lesions,the morphology did not change with duodenum movement ; In 64.1％ (25/39) of lesions hyperenhancement or isoenhancement was displayed in the arterial phase,with low enhancement in the venous phase; In 87.2％ (34/39) of lesions homogeneous enhancement was displayed; In 95％ (38/40) the bile ducts were moderately or severely dilated.The lesion locations and whether the lesions projected into the duodenal cavity or not were statistically different between the three different types of periampullary carcinoma (P ＜ 0.05).The lesions projected into the duodenal cavity of duodenum were more commonly seen in papillary carcinoma and ampullary carcinoma than distal common bile duct carcinoma.The lesion size,whether the lesion morphology changed or not with duodenum movement,enhancement level,enhancement homogeneity,the degree of bile duct dilatation,whether there was pancreatic duct dilatation or not were not statistically different between the three different types of periampullay carcinoma (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions DCUS is an effective way to show periampullay carcinoma,and is helpful to diagnose periampullary carcinoma and distinguish the three different types of periampullary carcinoma.

Objective To explore the treatment effect of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) in parenteral nutrition of infants and observation and nursing of its complication.Methods Clinical data of 32 cases of infants who underwent parenteral nutrition through PICC were analyzed.The nursing experience and observation and handling of common nursing problems were summarized.Results 2 cases failed catheterization,the others succeeded,1 case through scalp,2 cases through axillary,27 cases through basilic vein.2 cases completed TPN treatment with a second try of PICC.The shortest indwelling time of PICC was 3 days,the longest was 34 days.Catheter blockage happened in 1 case,leakage in 1 case,and catheter-related infections in 1 case.Conclusions Difficulty exists in application of PICC in infants,but the complications were less.The tube can be retained for a long time,which conforms to higher intravenous nutrition requirement of infants,and this method possesses wide application perspective.
