阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停综合征( obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, OSAS) 是一种常见的睡眠呼吸障碍性疾病, 在成人发生率为2% ～4% , 由于睡眠中反复发生上气道部分或完全阻塞而表现为夜间间断低氧和高碳酸血症、反复觉醒、睡眠结构紊乱, 临床上常引起心、脑、肾等多器官损害。越来越多的证据表明, OSAS并发高血压、冠心病、肺动脉高压、心力衰竭、中风的危险性增高, 是心脑血管疾病的独立危险因素。未经治疗的重度OSAS 患者5 年病死率高达11% ～13% , 而心脑血管并发症是主要死因。如果及时给予有效治疗, 在一定程度上可以预防并发症的发生, 甚至逆转心脑血管并发症的转归。
目的:分析骨梗死的MRI表现特点。方法:对8例临床证实为骨梗死患者的MRI表现进行分析。结果: 7例累及双侧股骨下段及双侧胫骨上段,1例累及双侧股骨下段,均呈地图样信号异常。结论: 骨梗死在MRI上有特征性表现,怀疑骨梗死应行MRI检查。

The course of chronic pancreatitis is prolonged, and pain is the main symptom, which seriously affects the quality of life and work ability of patients. Its treatment is the most important and complex problem. This article systematically describes the theoretical basis, indications, efficacy, selection and balance of drugs, endoscopy, surgery and other measures related to pain treatment.
Abstract： Replacement of the aortic valve and aortic root has been the standard surgical strategy for patients with aortic root aneurysm for many years. Along with the increasing knowledge about the aortic root anatomy and physiology, and complications after aortic valve replacement, the technique of valve-sparing aortic root replacement has developed greatly. We focus on the etiology and classification aortic valve insufficiency, the valve-sparing techniques and clinical outcomes of valve-sparing aortic root replacement in this review.
Objective To investigate the degenerative changes in the inner rat retina after photic injury.Methods After 24 hour-dark adaptation, sixty Lewis rats were exposed in a ventilated green plexiglass chamber that transmitted continuous green light between 480-520 nm with an intensity of 900～1 000 lx. After 24 hour exposure, the rats stayed in darkness and were sacrificed after 1 day, 3,7 or 14 days. The neurons in the inner retina were marked by immunohisto chemical technique and observed by light and electronic microscope.Results The apoptotic photoreceptor cells were noted after photic injury. The degeneration and decreasing number of rod bipolar cells were found after 3 days; the edema of horizontal cells occurred after 1 day but ameliorated gradually; decreasing number of amacrine cells was found after 1 day; sustained edema of ganglion cells and prolifeeration of the Müller cells were found after photic injury. Pyknotic and edematous neruronal degenerations of inner retina were found in ultrastructural study.Conclusion The neurons in the inner retina as well as Müller cells are involved in the degeneration after photic injury. Different neurons manifest different patterns of degeneration.(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis，2003，19：201-268)
Simulation-based medical education is becoming increasingly common. In this paper, the status and goal of SBME development is analyzed after a brief introduction of SBME. Secondly, the essentiality and possibility of bringing SBME to a situated paradigm are clarified, because there are rich implications for situated cognition as the theory foundation of SBME. As a main discussion point, eight practical situated designing principles for SBME in theoretical and practical contexts are then expounded. Finally, a specific attitude toward the relationship between theory and practice for the SBME teachers is also elucidated.
Primary hepatocellular carcinoma is a common cancer. Many patients are found with intermediate-advanced stage, rapid development, poor treatment and high mortality. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) can discover the early lesions and therefore plays an important role in diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. It especially has obvious advantages in detecting metastasis and monitoring recurrence. However, 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging has poor quality and low diagnosis rate. Understanding the advantages and limitations of 18F-FDG PET/CT can provide better basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma patients. This article briefly introduces the research and application of 18F-FDG PET/CT in the diagnosis and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.
The single ventricular circulation is notable for coexisting systemic venous hypertension and pulmonary arterial hypotension. The use of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices is a viable therapeutic treatment option for patients with congestive heart failure. Ventricular assisted devices, cavopulmonary assisted devices, and total artificial heart pumps continue to gain acceptance as viable treatment strategies for single ventricular physiology patients as bridge-to transplantation, bridge-to-recovery, and longer-term circulatory support alternatives. Patients with single ventricular physiology had the lower survival rates compared with those with biventricular circulation. We present a review of the current and future MCS devices for patients with univentricular circulations.
Objective To analyze the incidence of valve prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM) and ventricular remodeling of elderly patients after aortic valve replacement (AVR). Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 134 patient aged over 65 years who underwent AVR for the aortic stenosis or regurgitation at our hospital between January 2016 and December 2016. There were 73 males and 61 females aged 69.7±3.6 years ranging from 65-79 years. The clinical and ultrasound cardiography data were evaluated. PPM was defined as an effective orifice area index (EOAI) of ≤0.85 cm2/m2. The incidence of PPM and the left ventricular remodeling after surgical AVR in the patients with aortic stenosis and aortic regurgitation was analyzed, and the outcomes of aortic valve mechanical prosthesis and aortic valve bioprosthesis were compared. Results The incidence of PPM was 32.5% in aortic stenosis and 13.0% in aortic regurgitation (P<0.05). One patient died in the early post-operation, and the incidence of severe PPM was 6.0%. Conclusion The incidence of PPM after AVR in the patients with aortic regurgitation is less than that in the patients with aortic stenosis.
