OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of 4 different therapeutic regimens for cervicitis of chlamydia trachomatis.METHODS:4therapeutic regimens including regimen A(azithromycin by oral administration),regimen B(azithromycin by intravenous injection),regimen C(minocycline by oral administration),regimen D(levofloxacin and de?oxycycline by oral administration)were analyzed using cost-effectiveness analysis.RESULTS:The total costs of A,B,C,D4regimens were(645.20?109.56)yuan,(933.10?249.90)yuan,(413.14?38.04)yuan,and(489.00?83.60)yuan respective?ly;The effective rate were96.2%,98.6%,93.4%and94.1%respectively;The ratios of cost to effectiveness were6.71,9.46,4.42,and5.19respectively;As compared with regimen C,the incremental cost effectiveness ratios for regimen A,B and D were82.88,99.99,and108.37respectively.CONCLUSION:Regimen C is the preferable one.

Objective To study the role of the chimeric hsp70/CD80 DNA vaccine for treatment for TB. Methods C57BL/6N mice challenged with H37Rv were immunized with the chimeric hsp70/CD80 DNA vaccine, hsp70 DNA vaccine and BCG in order to compare the therapeutic role of these vaccines. Results The levels of interferon ? (IFN-?) in the serum of mice in hsp70/CD80 group (1336.98?129.64) pg/ml was significantly higher than in group BCG (121.54?56.39) pg/ml, pcDNA3 (192.00?64.36) pg/ml and pcDNA3 hsp70 (542.33?99.77) pg/ml. The growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in live and spleen were inhibited significantly in hsp70/CD80 vaccinated mice. Conclusions The chimeric hsp70/CD80 DNA vaccine was more efficient than BCG and hsp70 DNA vaccine alone in treating TB.

OBJECTIVE:To explore clinical efficacy of levoearnitine combined with trimetazidine in the treatment of ischemic cardiomyopathy(ICM) heart failure in elderly patients.METHODS:64 ICM elderly patients with heart failure were randomly divided into control group and observation group(n=32).Both group were given therapy of regulating blood lipid,antiplatelet,anti ischemia and conventional anti-heart failure therapy.Observation group were additionally intravenously injected with levoearnitine and given oral dose of trimetazidine for 2 weeks.Cardiac function classification,left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD),left ventricular end systolic diameter(LVESD) and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) of patients were determined before and after treatment.RESULTS:The cardiac function and the level of LVEDD,LVESD and LVEF in observation group were all significantly better than in control group.There were statistical significance in difference between two groups(P

Objective To investigate the clinical value of 3.0T MRI for hilarcholangioc-arcinoma diagnosis.Methods T Totally48 hilarcholangiocarcinoma patients from October 2011 to June 2015 underwent diagnoses by 3.0T MRI and 64-slice spiral CT,and then the diagnosing results were compared with those by surgery and pathological examination to determine the value of 3.0T MRI for hilarcholangiocarcinoma diagnosis.Results 3.0T MRI had the positioning accuracy (100％) and qualitative accuracy (95.83％) significantly higher than the positioning accuracy (79.17％) and qualitative accuracy (81.25％) (P＜0.05).In case of hepatic duct dilatation,CT found 35 cases of hilar masses,14 cases of lymphoma,5 cases of hepatic duct wall invasion and 9 cases of portal vein invasion,while 3.0T MRI displayed 44 cases of hilar masses,26 cases of lymphoma,13 cases of hepatic duct wall invasion and 30 cases of portal vein invasion.Conclusion 3.0T MRI has high positioning and qualitative accuracies when used to diagnosing hilarcholangiocarcinoma,behaves well in displaying hepatic duct dilatation,high resolution of soft tissues,and thus is worthy promoting clinically.

Objective To explore the clinical curative effect of cerebral angio spasm after aneurysm rupture subarachmoid hemorrhage by Fasudil, Methods The clinical data of cerebral angio spasm after aneurysm rupture subarachnoid hemorrhage were retrospectively analyzed, which was divided into detection group and control group.Results The GCS score of detection group was better than control group;the average blood flow rate of arteria cerebri media after curing in detection group the difference had statistical significance( all P ＜0. 05 ). The mutilation rate、rate of death of detection group were lower than control goup, the difference had statistical significance ( P ＜ 0. 05 ).Conclusion The clinical curative effect was good of cerebral angio spasm after aneurysm rupture subarachnoid hemorrhage by Fasudil, and prognosis was good.

Objective To investigate the effects of improved end-to-end invagination pancreaticojejunostomy on the occurrence of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods The clinical data of 396 patients who received pancreaticoduodenectomy at the Cancer Hospital of Shandong Province from January 2001 to January 2011 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were divided into the improved group(235 patients)and traditional group(161 patients)according to different anastomotic methods.All the operations were done by the same surgical group,and the digestive tract was reconstructed by the Child method.Patients in the improved group received improved end-to-end invagination pancreaticojejunostomy,and patients in the traditional group received traditional end-to-end anastomosis.The volume of operative bleeding,operation time,incidence of pancreatic fistula and duration of hospital stay of the 2 groups were compared.All data were analyzed using the t test,chisquare test or Fisher exact probability.Results The operative blood loss,operation time and duration of hospital stay were(383 ±56)ml,(7.2 ± 1.0)hours,(21 ±3)days in the improved group,and(381 ±39)ml,(7.0 ± 0.5)hours,(22 ± 5)days in the traditional group,with no significant difference between the 2 groups(t =0.388,1.680,-1.835,P ＞ 0.05).No operative death was detected in the 2 groups,and the overall incidence of pancreatic fistula was 7.6％(30/396).The incidence of pancreatic fistula of the improved group was 0(0/235),which was significantly lower than 18.6％(30/161)of the traditional group(P ＜ 0.05).Patients complicated with pancreatic fistula in the traditional group were cured by drainage,somatostatin administration and parenteral nutrition.Conclusion Improved end-to-end invagination pancreaticojejunostomy can significantly reduce the incidence of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Objective To study the results of laparotomy and Cool-tip radiofrequency ablation to treat large liver tumors.Methods Laparotomy and Cool-tip radiofrequency ablation were carried out on 64 patients with large hepatic cancer.To destroy the tumor completely,for tumors of 3.0～4.0 cm in diameter,7 ablations were required; for 4.0～5.0 cm in diameter 15 ablations; for 5.0～6.0 cm in diameter 19 ablations; for 6.0～7.0 cm in diameter 40 ablations.Result The complete necrosis rate of laparotomy and radiofrequency ablation was 93.75％ (60/64).The short-term results were good.Conclusions Laparotomy and Cool-tip multipoint overlapping radiofrequency ablation for large liver tumors (tumor diameter＞3 cm) could result in a high complete necrosis rate and a low complication rate.It is a good radical treatment for unresectable and large liver cancer.
