Objective To detect the esophageal and fundal varices and their related collateral ves-sels by multi-detector row CT ( MDCT) in helping to find out the objective evidences for selecting treatment measure and predicting prognosis. Methods Fifty-one patients with clinical diagnosis of cirrhosis were in-cluded in this study. Esophageal varices were confirmed by endoscopy in all patients, of which 31 accompa-nied with fundal varices. All patients underwent MDCT angiography to demonstrate collaterals between the systemic and portal circulation as well as the esophageal varicose. Results Good or excellent image quality was obtained in all patients. Gastric fundal varices were found in 31 of 51 patients (60. 8% )by endoscopies. By MDCT angiography esophageal varies were confirmed in all patients, gastric fundal varices were in 32 of 51 (62. 7% ). There are high degree of concordance Kappa =0. 876 between them. Esophageal varices were supplied mainly by the left gastric vein ( LGV) , by anterior branch of LGV alone in 30 of 51 (58. 8% ). There were paraesophageal veins in 21 of 51 patients (41.2%). Gastric fundal varices were supplied by LGV in 24 of 32 patients (75% ), by short gastric veins /posterior gastric veins in 3 of 32 patients (9. 4% ) and by short gastric veins /posterior gastric veins and LGV together in 5 of 32 patients ( 15. 6% ). Short gas-tric veins and posterior gastric veins participate in forming of esophageal varices in these patients. Conclusion MDCT angiography shows an excellent vascular maps and highly in concordance with endoscopy in terms of the detection of esophageal and gastric fundal varices. Esophagal varices were supplied mainly by LGV, more than half of them were by its anterior branch, and paraesophageal veins participated to it in some patients too. The blood flow in gastric fundal varices were supplied from LGV in most of the patients, and the rest from short gastric veins.

Objective To investigate the pretreatment and post-treatment effect of reduced glutathione (GSH) on acute ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) of rat kidney. Methods Fifty adult SD rats were divided into 5 groups: control group (Sham group), ischemia reperfusion group (I/R group), GSH pretreatment group (pre-treatment group), and GSH post-processing group (post-treatment group), with ten rates in each group. Animals in pre-treatment group were injected 4% GSH 100 mg/kg intraperitoneally at 24th , 16th , 8th hour and 45th minute before surgery. Animals in post-treatment group were administrated GSH with the same dosage at 45th minute, 6th, 12th and 18th hour after surgery. Creatinine (Cr), urea nitrogen (BUN) level, the total superox-ide dismutase (T-SOD) activity, malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide (NO) levels in serum were measured at 24th hour after surgery. Histopathological changes were checked by H. E staining. Results Damage on kid-ney structure of animals in pre-treatment group was less than that in I/R group. There was little pathological change on kidney of those in pre-treatment group. Serum Cr, BUN, MDA and NO levels were all decreased but T-SOD activity increased in pre-treatment and post-treatment group when compared with those in I/R group (P <0.05), (P < 0.05). T - SOD activity in post-treatment group was higher than that in pre-treatment group (P <0.05). Conclusion GSH can protect rats against acute renal ischemia-reperfusion injury within 24 hours before and after kidney ischemia-reperfusion , especially after ischemia-reperfusion.

Since human society entered the 21st century, the rapid development of medical technology also gave birth to a series of negative effects:medical service technology first, trust crisis of the doctor-patient relation-ship, and medical industry money worship. Especially in recent years, due to the lack of humanistic spirit in medi-cal institutions, the doctor -patient relationship is of the worst state in the history. Therefore, it is urgent to strengthen the medical humanities education in the construction of hospital culture. Aiming at the problems existing in the current medical industry, this paper expounds the importance of strengthening the humanistic education in the construction of hospital culture.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of a multi-dimensional peripheral quick contrast sensitivity function (pqCSF) measurement established based on Bayesian probability estimation algorithm.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted.Nineteen eyes of 12 healthy emmetropic subjects in Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center of Sun Yat-sen University from September 2017 to March 2018 were included, with an average age of (22.92±2.91) years.The average spherical power and cylindrical power were (-0.34±0.52)D and (-0.30±0.42)D, respectively, and the average uncorrected vision acuity was≥1.0.Based on the Bayesian probability algorithm, the peak contrast sensitivity γ max, the peak spatial frequency ? max, the bandwidth β and the low contrast intercept δ were used to quickly describe the contrast sensitivity function (CSF) curve of the full spatial frequency through multi-dimensional pqCSF method.The 16 peripheral visual field positions of all subjects were tested at 6°, 12°, 18° and 24° eccentricity of the superior, inferior, the temporal and nasal visual field by the pqCSF method, but the 18° eccentricity of temporal field, which was near the physiological blind spot, was excluded.The area under Log CSF (AULCSF) of different peripheral visual fields and the Log CSF of 19 spatial frequencies (distributed at equal intervals in logarithmic units) were compared.This study followed the Declaration of Helsinki, and the study protocol was approved by an Ethics Committee of Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center of Sun Yat-sen University (No.2018KYPJ017). Written informed consent was obtained from each subject prior to any examination. Results:With the increase of eccentricity in different visual fields, the AULCSF decreased gradually, and there were significant differences in AULCSF between different eccentricities (all at P<0.05). The AULCSF of the nasal and temporal visual field at 6°, 12° and 24° eccentricity was significantly larger than that of the superior and inferior visual field (all at P<0.05). As the distance from the fovea was increased, the pqCSF, the AULCSF, and the high-frequency cutoff were all decreased, and the standard deviation of AULCSF was increased gradually. Conclusions:The pqCSF method can depict a relatively complete peripheral CSF curve of a wide peripheral visual field, and reflect the function quality of the peripheral vision comprehensively and accurately.
