Chinese Medical Equipment Journal 2009;30(7):104-105
The intelligent level of the modern medical equipments is higher than before and the automatic calibration circuits are largely used. The control circuit of the intelligent equipments is quite complicated and its working modes have been simplified to four-terminal or double terminal nets. The intelligent medical equipments such as CT, MRI, DR, PET/ CT have more chances to have some "soft" errors that are usually related to the zero-line calibration. In actual use, it can be noticed and performed, and the detecting and servicing for the medical equipments can be much easier than before.

Objective To observe the effect of Fuming Tablet on the content of ATP and MDA, and the activity of SOD in retinal tissue of rabbit retinal detachment (RD) and reattachment model. Methods 48 rabbits were randomly divided into 4 groups, with 12 in each. 12 rabbits were taken as healthy control and fed with normal saline, the others in model group, western medicine group and Fuming Tablet group were prepared as RD model by injecting Sodium Halyuronate (Helen) into subretinal spaces, and the detached retinas were reattached automatically in 10 ~ 14 days. They were administered with normal saline, mixed preparation of western medicines and Fuming Tablet suspension respectively, then the content of ATP, MDA and SOD activity were determined in postoperative 1 week (the retina remained detached) and 3 weeks (the detached retina reattached). Results Effect of fuming tablet of increasing the content of ATP and the activity of SOD, reducing the content of MDA was similar with that of the mixed preparation of ATP, VitB1 and Venoruton. Conclusion Fuming Tablet can significantly improve the oxidation resistance and depress the lipid peroxidation of retinal tissue, thus alleviate and inhibit the development of retinal pathological changes to some extent.

Objective To collect data and analyze the current status and prevalence changes of Crohn's disease (CD) in mainland China in recent decades. Methods A computer-based literature search was previously performed by using 50-year (1950 to 2002) of records of CD from the Chinese Database of Biology and Medicine (CBM) (1979 to 2002) and a manual year-by-year search of the literature ( 1950 to 1978). Using similar method, descriptive epidemiological data from 2003 to 2007 were collected, analyzed and compared with previous research. Results Four hundred and seventeen relevant papers during 2003 and 2007 were collected and 62 papers were eligible for inclusion. Within 62 papers, a total of 2149 cases with CD from 2003 to 2007 have been reported nationwide, comprising 1288 male and 861 female patients, result (ie,1526 cases from 1950-2002). There were no obvious changes in incidence age (younger and middle age were main components) and sex ratio ( number of male was still larger than that of female). The extrapolated CD incidence and prevalence rates were 1.21/100 000 person ? year and 2.29/100 000, respectively, which were higher than that of year 1950-2002, 0.28/100 000 person ? year and 1.38/ 100 000, respectively. Conclusions The incidence and prevalence rates of CD have been increasing rapidly, but these rates are still lower than those in Western world.

Objective To study the risk factors and pathogenesis of pulmonary infection in acute stroke patients. Methods A retrospective analysis was taken in 257 acute stroke cases to investigate the incidence of pulmonary infection and its relationship with the underlying disease, disturbance of consciousness, invasive operation,the type of pathogenic bacteria and drug susceptibility. Results The positive rate of pulmonary infection in acute stroke patients was high and related to many factors including severity of stroke, disturbance of consciousness,primary diseases, and invasive examination etc. The most popular infective bacteria were Gram-negative bacteria. The imipenem was most sensitive to Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, followed by Amikacin and piperacillin too. Conclusions The pulmonary infection in cerebral stroke patients is caused by many factors, of which Gramnegative bacteria play the most important role. Identification of the risk factor and pathogenic bacteria is helpful in treating cerebral stroke infectious complications.

Background and Purpose:It has been proved that CD117 may be used as an immunology marker for diagnosis of leukemia of myeloid origin.The relationship between CD117 expression and effect of chemotherapy on the patients with Acute Nonlymphoblastic Leukemia(ANLL) remains unclear.This study is to investigate the relationship between CD117 expression and the response of patients with ANLL to chemotherapy.Methods:Flow cytometery(FCM) was used to detect the positive rate and the levels of CD117 expression of the bone marrow mononuclear cell(BMMNC) from 38 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL) and 81 patients with ANLL,respectively.All-trans Retinoic Acid(ATRA) was taken to treat M_(3) type of ANLL and protocol DA and/or HA was used to treat the other types.ANLL was divided into two groups: positive(+) and negative(-) expression of CD117.At the same time we compared the difference of rates of complete remission(CR) between CD117(+) and CD117(-) groups from ANLL after chemotherapy.Results:Positive percentage of expression of CD117 in ALL and ANLL groups were 13% and 70% respectively(P=0.000).Positive levels of CD117 decreased successively as follows: M_(3)/ M_(1)、M_(2)/ M_(6) / M_(4)、M_(5).CR rates of CD117(+) and CD117(-) groups of ANLL after chemotherapy were 51%(29/57) and 67%(16/24)(P=0.192),respectively.Conclusions:CD117 may serve as an immunology marker for the diagnosis of ANLL,but positive or negative expression of CD117 in ANLL was not associated with the response of the patients with ANLL to chemotherapy.

Objective:To study expressions of CD117 and CD34 in the patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia(APL,M3) and in M1-M2 subtype from FAB classification for acute leukemia(AL).The focus of the study would be laid on the clinical significance of CD117/CD34 co-expression in the patients of M3 subtype.Methods:Researched cases of acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia(ANLL) were divided into two groups:M1-M2 subtype and M3 subtype.Flow cytometery(FCM) was used to detect the rates of positive expression of CD117 and CD34 on bone marrow mononuclear cell(BMMNC) in 54 patients of M3 and 63 patients of M1-M2 subtype respectively.Meanwhile,we compared the differences between the rates of expression of CD117 and CD 34.And,the rates of CD117/CD34 co-expression in patients of M1-M2 subtype and M3 subtype were studied.Results:Our results revealed that the positive rates of CD117 expression in M1-M2 subtype and M3 subtype were 71.4%(45/63) and 66.7%(36/54) respectively(P=0.58).The positive rates of CD34 expression in M1-M2 subtype and M3 subtype were 66.7%(42/63) and 11.1%(6/54) respectively(P=0.000).The positive rates of CD117/CD34 co-expression in M1-M2 subtype and M3 subtype were 71.1%(45/63) and 7.4%(4/54) respectively(P=0.000).Conclusion:CD117 may be used as immunology marker for leukemia of myeloid origin.CD34 had lower expression in M3 subtype than in M1-M2 subtype.The positive rate of CD117/CD34 co-expression in M3 subtype was significantly lower than that in M1-M2 subtype,which can help for diagnosis of M3 subtype and help differentiate M3 subtype from M1-M2 subtype as well.

0.05). There was no significant difference in radiation reaction and squeal between two groups. Conclusions The clinical results of LCAH radiotherapy may be improve the three year of local control rate than conventional CF in stage Ⅲ~Ⅳa but do not improve the survival rate of three years.The radiation reaction and sequela was similar,is worth further study.

Objective:To determine the expression level of bone morphogenetic proteins-4 (BMP-4) and the relationship between the expression of BMP-4 and the clinical/pathological parameters in patients with gastric cancer. Methods:Using im-munohistochemical staining technique ,expressions of BMP-4 were investigated in different tissues from 90 gastric cancer specimens and 30 specimens from normal gastric mucosa as control. ResultS:The positive rate of BMP-4 was 23. 3% (21/90) in gastric cancer and 3. 3% (1/30) in normal gastric mucosa. The expression of BMP-4 in gastric cancer was closely related with locus, serosa infiltration,cell differentiation and lymph node metastasis (P
