RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the incidence of abnormalities and adverse reactions of intrauterine device ( IUD) by three‐dimensional transvaginal ultrasound ,and guide the correct selection of IUD . Methods Female volunteers who came to our hospital for health check‐up from July 2016 to February 2018 were selected as subjects to obtain information of the belt loop time and number of loops . T hree‐dimensional transvaginal ultrasound was used to observe and record the IUD types and positions . T he incidence of location abnormalities ,adverse reactions and cervical lesions of differnet types of IUD were retrospectively analyzed . Results T wo thousand one hundred and thirteen eligible subjects were included in the study ,including 423 cases of McuIUD ,506 cases of circular ring ,405 cases of uterine ring ,372 cases of T‐ring and 407 cases of γ ring . T he statistical analysis showed that the incidence of adverse reactions after wearing rings was as high as 34 .07% ,and the adverse reaction rate of different IUD was different . McuIUD had the highest incidence of adverse reactions ,compared with the circular ring ,the uterine ring ,the T‐ring , and the γ ring ( 47 .99% vs 25 .88% ,27 .41% ,37 .10% ,33 .66% ; all P ＜ 0 .05 ) . Different IUD had different incidence of adverse reactions . T he low back pain rate in McuIUD and γ ring were higher than the other 3 IUDs . T he low back pain rate of McuIUD was higher than the circular ring ,the uterine ring and the T‐ring ( 23 .4% vs 15 .71% ,14 .07% ,13 .7 1% ; all P ＜ 0 .01 ) . Different types of IUD had different incidence of location anomalies . T he descending rate of the circular ring was higher than that of the McuIUD and γ ring ( 6 .32% vs 3 .30% ,3 .19% ; all P＜ 0 .05 ) ,and no statistically significant difference compared with the uterine ring and T‐ring ( 6 .32% vs 3 .45% ,4 .30% ; all P ＞0 .05 ) . T he incarceration rate of the mother ring was higher than that of the circular ring ,uterine ring and T‐ring ( 3 .07% vs 0 ,0 .25% ,0 .54% ;all P ＜0 .01) . T he intrauterine rotation rate of uterine ring and γ ring were higher than that of McuIUD , circular ring and T‐ring ( all P ＜0 .01) . Pregnancy ＞1 and ring times ≥2 were related with the occurrence of adverse reactions of IUD ( P ＜ 0 .05 ) . T he incidence of cervical erosion in the T‐ring was the highest compared with the McuIUD ,circular ring ,uterine ring ,and γ ring ( 30 .65% vs 16 .78% ,16 .80% ,18 .02% , 17 .69% ; all P ＜0 .01) . Conclusions The incidence of adverse reactions is higher in women with different types of IUD . T he incidence of different types of abnormal IUD position is different . T he frequency of pregnancy and band ring are related to the occurence of adverse veactions to IUD .
RESUMEN
Objective To explore whether the use of spatiotemporal image correlation (STIC) can supply additional information with respect to conventional fetal echocardiography in the prenatal diagnosis of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection(TAPVC).Methods Twenty-five cases diagnosed as TAPVC received fetal echocardiography examination.Four-dimensional volumes from 19 cases of suspected TAPVC were compared to conventional echocardiography.Echocardiographic characteristics were compared with the results of postnatal work-up and pathology.Results TAPVC was found in 25 cases by fetal echocardiography,four cases were isolated TAPVC,21 TAPVC had associated cardiac anomalies.Among them,nine cases were supracardiac types,six cases were infracardiac types,nine cases were intracardiac types and one was indefinite.Three true positivecases of TAPVC were confirmed after birth.Twenty-two choose to terminate pregnancy,9 of which refused to autopsy,and 10 true positive cases of TAPVC were confirmed at autopsy while 3 were considered false-positive cases.4D ultrasound with STIC clearly visualized the anomalous PV confluence and/or the draining vertical vein in all nineteen cases examined.Conclusions STIC may be proposed to identify abnormal venous drainage at the screening level,thus supplying additional information over that provided by 2D fetal echocardiography.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of the bedside color Doppler in the assessment infants with periventricular-intraventricular hemorrhages (PIVH).Methods Sixty-eight cases of PIVH newborns and 156 healthy newborns were involved in the study,dynamic monitoring were undergone within a week after birth.The middle cerebral artery(MCA) hemodynamic parameters of velocity systolic (Vs),velocity diastolic(Vd) and resistance index (RI) were recorded,and the differences of the parameters were compared between different grades as well as those of the normal newborns at 1 d,4 d and 7 d after born.Results Total 68 PIVH infants were diagnosed by bedside color Doppler accurately.Prevalences of premature and low birth weight infants were higher than term infants and normal birth weight children,respectively (P ＜0.05).Vs and Vd of 4 groups of children with PIVH showed an increasing trend in a week after born.The differences of Vs between grade Ⅰ and normal newborns in 4 d and 7 d were not statistically significant (P＞ 0.05),the differences of the other three groups compared with normal newborn group in1 d,4 d and 7 d were statistically significant (P ＜0.05).Vd of grade Ⅱ newborns within 7 d were greater than those of other 4 groups (P ＜0.05),grade Ⅲ and grade Ⅳ within 7 d were less than healthy newborns (P ＜0.05).The difference of RI between all groups were not statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The diagnostic accuracy rate of PIVH by bedside Doppler is high and the dynamic monitoring of neonatal hemodynamics could provide an important basis for assessing the occurrence and development of PIVH.
RESUMEN
Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging was performed to assess the coronary wall morphology in detail at 22 months after the onset of Kawasaki disease in a girl who had developed coronary aneurysms at 4 yr of age. The sites of persistent aneurysms demonstrated a dilated lumen with a marked symmetrical or asymmetrical thickening of the intima-media complex. This pathologic finding was also present in angiographically normal vessels near an aneurysm but with a mild thickening. Coronary artery calcification was observed at one site in the aneurysms. The sites of normal coronary artery far from an aneurysm showed normal intravascular ultrasound findings with no measurable intima-media complex. Our case indicates that the healing process may continue via cell proliferation, with extension to the proximity of the coronary aneurysms. IVUS is useful to evaluate the coronary wall morphology and may be valuable in the long-term follow-up of coronary lesions due to Kawasaki disease.
