Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL) combined with endoscopic variceal sclerosis (EVS) for treating patients with esophageal variceal bleeding (EVB).Methods Ninety patients with EVB were divided into observation group and control group by treatment methods with 45 patients each.The observation group was given EVL combined with EVS and the control group was given EVL.The elimination of varicosity after the first treatment,time and times required to eliminate,rehaemorrhagia,varicosity recurrence,complication and prognosis of the 2 groups were observed.Results The elimination rate of varicosity of observation group was 97.8％(44/45),the control group was 93.3％(42/45),there was no significant difference (P＞ 0.05).The elimination rote of varicosity after the first treatment of observation group was significantly higher than that of control group,the time and times required to eliminate were significantly lower than those of control group [71.1％(32/45) vs.48.9％(22/45),(17.24±5.65) d vs.(36.01 ± 11.81) d,(1.42 ±0.47) times vs.(1.87 ±0.61) times,P ＜ 0.05 or ＜0.01].The rates of early-onset rehaemorrhagia,delayed rehaemorrhagia and varicosity recurrence of observation group were significantly lower than those of control group [4.4％(2/45) vs.17.8％(8/45),6.7％(3/45) vs.22.2％ (10/45),2.2％ (1/45) vs.22.2％ (10/45),P ＜0.05].The rate of complication of observation group was significantly lower than that of control group [11.1％ (5/45) vs.42.2％ (19/45),P ＜0.01].Conclusion The EVL combined with EVS is an effective method for emergency hemostasis and preventing rehaemorrhagia in the patients with EVB.

Objective:To establish a RP-HPLC method with pre-column derivation for determining the content of stilbene glyco-sides in Yening granules. Methods:DNS-Cl was used as the derivation reagent, a Wondasil-C8 column (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μm) was used as the stationary phase and 30mM ammonium phosphatere gulation (pH 3. 5)-acetonitrile (78∶22) was applied as the mobile phase, a fluorescence detector (λex=370 nm,λem=560 nm) was used, the flow rate was 1. 0 ml·ml-1 , the column temperature was 30℃ and the injection volume was 20 μl. Results: There was no interference from the other substances in the preparation. The linear range of the two stilbene glycosides was 0.071-27.280 mg·ml-1(r=0.999 9). The average recovery was 99.04%(RSD=0. 1%, n= 9). Conclusion:The method is simple, quick, sensitive and accurate, which can be used for the quality control of Ye-ning granules.

Objective A study was performed to better define the teaching outcome of computers in teaching medical imaging. Methods 150 4rd-year students were randomly assigned to four groups and experimental group exposed to 20 radiology cases as well as to a voluntary weekly radiology lecture. Group A used computer-based cases with interactive elements; group B used computer-based cases without interactive elements; group C used paper-based cases with interactive elements; and group D was not exposed to the cases and served as a control group. Results On a multiple-choice question test,groups A,B,and C showed significant improvemen(t+10.6%,+15.7%,+13.5%,respectively),whereas group D did not(+2.7%). On an image interpretation test,group A and group B showed the most improvement (+15.8%,P

Objective To observe the effect of dexmedetomidine on patients′ inflammation during CPB and protective effect on kidney and liver. Methods 60 cases undergoing cardiac valve replacement under CPB were randomly divided into NS group and Dex group. Blood samples were taken before induction , before ascending aorta blocked, end of CPB, 24, 48 and 72 hours after operation. The serum level of HMGB-1, TNF-α, IL-6, BUN, Cr and ALT are tested. Blood WBC and N% are also counted. Results WBC, N% and HMGB-1, TNF-α, IL-6, BUN, Cr in Dex group significantly decreased at time point T2 ~ T6 (P < 0.05) compared with NS group. But ALT in Dex group only decreased at time point T 2 and T5 compared with NS group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can significantly decrease inflammatory factor during CPB and improve renal function after surgery.

Objective:To establish an animal model of bone distraction in the irradiated dog mandible.Methods:1 0 Chinese dogs were used.8 dogs received a unilateral irradiation of 60 Co(Group R)in the mandible with a total dose of 22.8 Gy in four 5.7 Gy frac-tions (biologically equivalent to 50 Gy/25 fractions).The other 2 dogs without irradiation served as the controls(Group C).Bilateral corticotomy was made 3 months after completion of irradiation.After a 1 -week latency period,bone distraction was activated at a rate of 0.5 mm twice daily for 1 0 days,followed by a consolidation phase of 8 weeks.New bone was evaluated by radiographic,histological and single photon emission computed tomography(SPECT)analysis.Results:One dog was excluded from the study due to anaesthetic death in group R.After 8 weeks of consolidation,no difference was found between the percent area of new bone of both groups.New bone was more mature and organized in Group C than that in Group R.SPECT analyses showed that there was active osteogenic activity in Group R.Conclusion:Distraction osteogenesis can be achieved in the irradiated dog mandible.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the adverse drug reactions of 6 kinds of quinolones in order to provide information for clinically rational use of drugs.METHODS The adverse drug reactions of quinolones such as norfloxacin,ofloxacin,levofloxacin,ciprofloxacin,fleroxacin and rufloxacin used in outpatients during Feb to May 2007 were collected and retrospectively analyzed.RESULTS The main adverse drug reactions were seen in gastrointestinal system,nervous system,immune system,respiratory system,urinary system etc.From them the symptoms of gastrointestinal system and nervous system were prominent.CONCLUSIONS In use of quinolones it should think highly to their adverse drug reactions.

Purpose To investigate the diagnostic value of p16/Ki-67 dual stain cytology for detection of cervical precancerous lesions as a novel option for cervical lesions screening.Methods A total of 295 cases diagnosed as atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) and low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) from thinprep cytologic test (TCT) were selected.Double staining of p16/Ki-67 cytology,vaginal biopsy,biopsy and pathological examination were applicated,p16/Ki-67 dual stain cytology was compared with that of biopsy and pathological examination.At the same time,The sensitivity and specificity of p16/Ki-67 dual stain cytology between ASC-US and LSIL was analyzed.Results The positive rate of p16/Ki-67 dual stain cytology were 37.42％ and 36.36％ in ASC-US and LSIL,respectively.The positive rate of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2/3 (CIN2/3) were 25.77％ and 25.76％.The sensitivity and specificity of the p16/Ki-67 test for detecting CIN2/3 was 83.33％ and 78.51％.The sensitivity and the specificity of the p16/Ki-67 test for detecting CIN2/3 was 85.30％ and 80.61％ in LSIL group.Conclusion p16/Ki-67 double stain cytology detection can improve the sensitivity of CIN2/3 and the specificity of human papilloma virus (HPV).p16/Ki-67 double stain detection can effectively triage the high grade cervical lesions in TCT and improve the accuracy of cervical cancer screening.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of RegⅣand EGFR,PI3K proteins in gastric adenocarcinoma .Methods S-P immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of RegⅣand EGFR,PI3K proteins in pathological tissues of 73 cases with gastric adenocarcinoma and tumor -adja-cent normal gastric tissues .Results The positive expression rates of RegⅣand EGFR,PI3K proteins in 73 cases with gastric adenocarcinoma tissue were 50.7%(37/73),56.2%(41/73) and 69.9%(51/73) respectively, which were significantly different from the positive expression rates of tumor -adjacent normal gastric tissues ,be-ing 20.5%(15/73),19.2%(14/73),and 21.9%(16/73),respectively(P<0.05).The expression of RegⅣprotein was significantly correlated to differentiation degree ( P<0.05 ) and the expression of EGFR protein was significantly correlated to infiltrative depth,TNM stage,and lymph node metastasis(P<0.05).The expression of PI3K protein was significantly correlated to differentiation degree ,infiltrative depth,TNM stage and lymph node metastasis(P<0.05).There was positive correlation between the expressions of RegⅣ/EGFR,RegⅣ/PI3K and EGFR/PI3K proteins in gastric adenocarcinoma and the values of Spearman coefficient correlation were 0.325, 0.403 and 0.384,respectively(P<0.05).Conclusion RegⅣmay play an important role in gastric adenocarci-noma genesis and progression by activating EGFR /PI3K/Akt signaling pathway .
