ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application value of Photoshop in grading invasive risk of gastric stromal tumors (GSTs). Methods EUS image of 97 cases of GSTs confirmed by pathological and immunohistochemical examination were collected. GSTs were divided into four groups (very low risk, low risk, intermediate risk, high risk) by tumor size, mitotic count and rupture of tumor. Mean gray value (intensity of echo) and gray value standard deviation (uniformity of echo) of EUS images of the lesions were determined by Photoshop and then the differences of each group were found by statistical analysis. Results It is difficult to differentiate EUS images of GSTs from each group by visual observation. The mean gray value of EUS image of very low risk group,low risk group, intermediate risk group and high risk group of GSTs respectively were (56.54 ± 6.10), (59.20 ± 7.51), (77.77 ± 10.90) and (83.43 ± 12.47). There was no significant difference between very low risk group and low risk group (P > 0.05). There was no significant difference between intermediate risk group and high risk group (P > 0.05). In addition, the others all had significantly different from that of each group (P 0.05). In addition, the others all had significantly different from that of each group (P < 0.05). Conclusions The higher risk of GSTs, the higher of echo intensity and the worse of echo uniformity under EUS. Photoshop combined with EUS is helpful for differentiating different risk of GSTs by analyzing mean gray value and gray value standard deviation of the lesions.
ABSTRACT
Health care policy should follow principles of total efficiency, no-harm, fairness and justice as ethi-cal standards for public policy. Diagnosis Related Groups( DRGs) as a sign of new health care reform ( NHCR) is implemented as a pilot program across the country, with the obvious function of suppressing excessive growth in medi-cal costs and over-treatment. From the dimension of ethical values, the DRGs has avoided unethical individuals, fol-lowed the principle of total efficiency and achieved the equalization of social security. However it has also increased ethical risks and been adverse to the development of medical research. To realize the reasonable development of DRGS, the construction of DRGs must be improved, and security policies must be reasonable and feasible; orderly measures must be established to ensure promotion and implementation;the government’s financial investment must be increased to protect the social welfare of public hospitals;a sound communication mechanism must be implemented, and interaction between medical institutions and insurance institutions must be strengthened.
