Objective To study signs of ultrasonography in multiple renal arteritis (MRA) by color Doppler flow imaging(CDFI) and X-ray angiography.Methods 2-D ultrasonography and color Doppler were performed on 23 cases of MRA with 39 diseased blood vessels.The morphology and diameters of stenonsed renal arteries of the kidneys were observed respectively by 2-D ultrasonography and CDFI.CDFI was adopted to observe maximum of velocity(Vmax),minimum of velocity(Vmin),resistance index(RI),acclerate(ACC) and acclerated time(TA) of the renal arteries,and the values were compared with those by X-ray angiography and with those of the normal controls.Results MRA's renal volume and diameter were significantly different from those of controls ( P

ObjectiveTo study the effect of Rehabilitative Ankle-Foot Orthoses training program on walking function of hemiplegic patients after stroke .Methods95 patients were randomly divided into two groups: observed group (49 cases) and control group (46 cases). The patients of control group were trained by routine rehabilitation training program, the patients of observed group were trained by Rehabilitative Ankle-Foot Orthoses and routine rehabilitation training program.ResultsAfter training, either observed group or control group showed significant improvement at walking function and ADL(P<0.01), but the improvement on observed group were more marked than coutrol group(P<0.01 and P<0.05). ConclusionsThe ability of walking in acute stroke patients were obviously improved, and the degree of the disability of them was decreased by Rehabilitative Ankle-Foot Orthoses.

Objective To reduce the misdiagnosis rate of spondyloarthritis (SPA) by reviewing the rare cases misdiagnosed as SpA.Methods Cases misdiaguosed as SpA were collected from our hospital from January 2004 to April 2014.Reported cases among Chinese journals from January 1998 to October,2014 were also collected.According to the Assessment of Spondylo Arthritis international Society (ASAS) axial SpA criteria (2009) and peripheral SpA criteria (2011),the diagnostic accordance rate was studied.Results There were 112 cases within the objective scope,out of which,27 cases (24.1％) were infectious diseases,47 cases (42.0％) were heredity and metabolic diseases,25 cases (22.3％) were hematonosis or tumor,13 cases (11.6％) were osteoarthropathies.Also,only 10 cases (8.9％) out of 112 had the symptoms of inflammatory back pain (IBP),23 cases (20.5％) exhibited fever.Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27 was positive in 20.4％ (21/103) of the cases.Eleven cases out of those 29 cases performed X-ray in the sacroiliac joint and showed blurred articular surface,narrowing of joint space or bone destruction.Four cases were diagnosed based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).18/91 (19.8％) cases met the criteria of ASAS axial SpA criteria (2009),2/6(33.3％) cases were in accordance to the ASAS peripheral SpA criteria (2011).Conclusion For patients with atypical back pain,if accompanied with fever,other diseases such as tumor,infection,heredity and metabolic diseases should be considered.The diagnosis should not only based on HLA-B27 for SpA diagnosis.Due to the ambiguity of X-ray in sacroiliac joint,CT or MRI may be recommended to assist the diagnosis.Careful clinical history taken is also with great significance.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and treatment of infants with cytomegalovirus(CMV)pneumonia.Methods The clinical and auxiliary examination data of 24 patients with CMV pneumonia,which were diagnosed by detection of serum CMV-IgM used enzyme immunodot technique.All patients were treated with ganciclovir (GCV).Results The most common clinical manifestations of CMV pneumonia were cough,breathlessness,fever,crackles and wheezing rale.Chest X-ray findings predominately revealed increased and thickened bilateral lung markings and patchy areas of increased opacity in both lungs.Sixteen cases were cured,8 cases improved.Conclusions Clinical manifestations of infant CMV pneumonia lack specificity.The presence of serum CMV-IgM antibody is a laboratory diagnostic evidence.GCV is the best choice of drug in treatment of infants with CMV pneumonia.

0.05]. Conclusion: Cigarettes smoking may increase the levels of sera IL-8 in rats,and it can been depressed by glycyrrhiza uralensis and glucocorticoid respectively,however glycyrrhiza uralensis show significantly faster and were powerful action than glucocorticoid.
