ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the value of low tube voltage with sinogram affirmed iterative reconstruction (SAFIRE) through comparing the image quality of regular dose scanning with filtered back projection (FBP) reconstruction and low-dose scanning with SAFIRE. Methods Eleven healthy adult domestic dogs were scanned with different doses. The regular dose of 120 kV/65 mA in combination with FBP reconstruction was set as the normal control group, and 100 kV/65 mA plus SAFIRE reconstruction was used as the low kV group. The CT dose index (CTDI), dose length product (DLP), and the effective dose (ED) at different doses were compared, and the average CT value, noise, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and the image quality score of two groups of images were also analyzed. Results ED in the low kV groups was reduced by 39.33%compared to that in the normal control group. No significant differences were found in the average CT value of the same tissue among these two groups (P > 0.05). Compared with the normal control group, image noise of the lung tissue, superior vena cava and spinal muscle of low kV group were consistently decreased, SNR was in also creased, while the noise ratio contrast between superior vena cava and fat was increased. The image quality score of the low kV group was increased by 1.70%compared to that of the normal control group. Conclusion The low kV scan with SAFIRE technology can decrease the radiation dose and improve image quality in chest CT examination of domestic dogs, with a potential value in the clinical promotion and the application.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the health status and incidence of alcohol abuse of Xinjiang community residents.MethodsThrough multi-stage random sampling,1992 community residents ( 15-65years old) were assessed using socio-demographic information questionnaire,alcohol use disorders identification test (AUDIT) and self-rated health measurement scale-prior test(SHRMS).Single factor analysis and rank sum test were used to identify the incidence of alcohol abuse,the distribution of different populations,and the self-rated health status of abusers.ResultsTotally 298 cases of alcohol abuse were identified,and accordingly,the prevalence rate of alcohol abuse for general population was 15.1% ( male 26.4%,female 4.8% ).Key factors for alcohol abuse included male,middle-aged,well-educated,at work,administrative work,high income levels and large number of household.The differences among groups were statistical significant.Presumably the workplace population was at high risk of alcohol abuse.Alcohol abusers were significantly worse than general population in self-rated health status(P < 0.01 ),especially in mental health and social health.ConclusionThe incidence of alcohol abuse is relatively high in Xinjiang rcgion,and the problem need more attention.Further survey and early intervention work for highrisk group are advised to achieve the purpose of prevention and control.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the feasibility and effect of intentional occlusion of the left subclavian artery (LSA) in endovascular aortic repair EVAR of thoracic aortic disease.Methods The cases,who needed occlusion of the LSA in EVAR of thoracic aortic disease,were examined cerebral circulation,carotid artery,vertebral basilar artery and circle of Willis.If the vertebral artery had a good blood pathway,and carotid artery and circle of Willis had no stenotic,we occluded the LSA directly in EVAR,and observed the brain and upper limb ischemia complications postoperation.Results Among 40 cases who were occluded the LSA directly in EVAR,28 cases were successful with no neurological complications and left upper limb ischemia symptoms postoperation,12 patients with mild symptoms of subclavian steal syndrome and neurdogical complications,but none required and secondary surgical intervention.Conclusions Prior to intentional LSA occlusion,attention must be paid to potential supraaortic variants and pathologies.Only in this way,it was safe and effective to occlude the LSA in EVAR of thoracic aortic disease.

ABSTRACT

Objective To discuss the experience of open heart operation on beating in complex and severe congenital heart diseases. Method This kind of operation was put to use in 48 cases of the heart diseases in order to observe the effect of myocardial protection, prevention from air embolism,exposure of the operative field, and cardiopulmonary bypass. Results Operation field exposure was clear enough to finish the manipulation. One cases was eventiful postoperatively and died(2.08%). Conclusion Open heart operation on beating with slight hypothermia might have much feasibility in the part of complicated and severe congenital heart diseases.

ABSTRACT

Purpose:To compare old and new clinical staging of primary liver cancre. Methods:317 cases of primary liver cancer(PLC) patients,hospita lized and dead,were investigated retrospectively for overall median survival and survival after various therapies,according to various stages,and therapies and comparison among groups and test of median survival were carried out. Results:Survival in patients with new stage Ⅱa+Ⅱb or old Ⅱw ere significantly longer than newⅢa+Ⅲb or oldⅢ, but no significant differenc es were observed between new stageⅡa+Ⅱb and oldⅡ , or new stage Ⅲa+Ⅲb and oldⅢ. Median survival by new staging , decreased in peoper order from stageⅡ a ,Ⅱb , Ⅲa to Ⅲb respectively, significant different was found only between s tage Ⅲa and Ⅲb but not betweenⅡa andⅡb . Survival decreased respectively fr om interventional treatment ,systemic chemotherapy and palliative therapy;the in terventional treatment group did much better than the palliative group but no si milar differences were observed in the other groups. Conclusions:New clinical staging of PLC did not show significan t superiorly over the old one as judged by median survival.It can be questioned whether basing on largest diameter is less than 5/10 cm or more than 10 cm to di stinguish Ⅱa and Ⅱb is valid.Interventional treatment should be applied as soo n as possible to prolong survival whether it be the new or old clinical staging.
