Besides its well-known advantages over parenteral nutrition, PEG offers superior access to the gastrointestinal system over surgical methods. Considering that nowadays PEG tube placement is one of the most common endoscopic procedures performed worldwide, knowing its indications and contraindications is of paramount importance in current medicine. PEG tubes are sometimes placed inappropriately in patients unable to tolerate adequate oral intake because of incorrect and unrealistic understanding of their indications and what they can accomplish. Broadly, the two main indications of PEG tube placement are enteral feeding and stomach decompression. On the other hand, distal enteral obstruction, severe uncorrectable coagulopathy and hemodynamic instability constitute the main absolute contraindications for PEG tube placement in hospitalized patients. Although generally considered to be a safe procedure, there is the potential for both minor and major complications. Awareness of these potential complications, as well as understanding routine aftercare of the catheter, can improve the quality of care for patients with a PEG tube. These complications can generally be classified into three major categories: endoscopic technical difficulties, PEG procedure-related complications and late complications associated with PEG tube use and wound care. In this review we describe a variety of minor and major tube-related complications as well as strategies for their management and avoidance. Different methods of percutaneous PEG tube placement into the stomach have been described in the literature with the “pull” technique being the most common method. In the last section of this review, the reader is presented with a brief discussion of these procedures, techniques and related issues. Despite the mentioned PEG tube placement complications, this procedure has gained worldwide popularity as a safe enteral access for nutrition in patients with a functional gastrointestinal system.展开更多

In addition, recent reports of ductal and parenchymal changes occurring after pancreatic stenting raise concerns about the standard practice of stent placement at the time of pancreatic sphincterotomy. We report our experience with pancreatic sphincterotomy and describe the use of a technique involving overnight nasopancreatic drainage rather than stenting.METHODS We reviewed the records of the 164 pancreatic sphincterotomies performed on 160 patients at our institution between January 1, 1991, and October 1, 1996, comparing procedures done with overnight nasopancreatic catheter placement with those done with stenting or no drainage. We also examined the longterm clinical outcome of patients after pancreatic sphincterotomy.RESULTS Of the 164 sphincterotomies, 98 were done with overnight nasopancreatic drainage, 50 with stent placement, and 16 with no drainage. Complications (all pancreatitis) were significantly more frequent in the group with no drainage (125%) as compared with those with drainage (07%); P<0003. Nasopancreatic drainage was as safe as stent placement, with no complications after 98 procedures. Pancreatic sphincterotomy was effective when used as primary therapy, with 64% of patients so treated experiencing complete and longlasting resolution of symptoms after the procedure.CONCLUSION Pancreatic sphincterotomy is safe and effective, although pancreatic drainage is required to reduce the incidence of pancreatitis. Overnight nasopancreatic drainage is the method of choice, as it carries as low a complication rate as stent placement, but without the need for a repeat procedure, and presumably without the risk of ductal and parenchymal damage.展开更多

METHODS: The medical charts of all patients who underwent PKP at Shandong Eye Institute from June 1, 2005 to May 31, 2010 were analysed retrospectively. RESULTS: A total of 875 patients (875 eyes) received PKP in this 5-year period, accounting for 61.6% of all corneal transplantation surgeries. The leading indications for PKP were infectious keratitis (37.1%), HSK (19.1%), keratoconus (11.2%), bullous keratopathy (8.5%), regrafting (6.7%) and corneal scarring (4.8%). The percentage of PKP for keratoconus declined year by year, whereas the percentage of bullous keratopathy had a mild annual increase. Fungal infections accounted for 65.2% of the infectious keratitis cases, remaining the leading cause of corneal infection. In addition, 54.1% of bullous keratopathy cases were associated with cataract surgery. The leading initial diagnoses associated with regrafting were infectious keratitis (38.9%), HSK (18.6%) and corneal burn (16.9%). The major causes of regrafting included graft endothelial dysfunction (39.0%), graft ulcer (28.8%) and primary disease recurrence (15.3%). CONCLUSION: Infectious keratitis remained the leading indication for PKP in Shandong, and fungal infections were still the major cause of corneal infections. There was an increasing trend in the percentage of PKP cases indicated for bullous keratopathy but a decline in the same for keratoconus. Even with a decline in the overall proportion among all corneal transplantation surgeries, PKP is still the major corneal transplant choice in Shandong.展开更多

Patient age, gender, indication for corneal transplantation and surgical technique were recorded and analyzed. RESULTS: Corneal transplantation were underwent in 1390 eyes of 1278 patients with a mean age of 44.9±18.1y during the period under review. The most common indication was infectious corneal ulcer (n=670; 48.2%), followed by corneal scar (n=333, 24.0% ), corneal dystrophy (n=138, 9.9%) and failed graft (n=112, 8.1%). Nearly all procedures performed were penetrating keratoplasty (n=1300, 93.5% ), with a few lamellar keratoplasty procedures performed: lamellar keratoplasty (n=52, 3.7%), Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (n =27, 1.9% ) and deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (n =11, 0.8%).CONCLUSION: While the most common indication for keratoplasty was infectious keratitis, nearly all indications for corneal transplantation were managed with penetrating keratoplasty, However, lamellar keratoplasty techniques, including deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty and Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty, are being performed with increasing frequency for isolated stromal and endothelial disorders, respectively,展开更多

The orebodies were surrounded by the Qiziqiao Formation limestone in the Middle Devonian, and its geological occurrence is consistent with the wall rocks. A large number of spheroidal pyrite aggregates are found unevenly distributed in the ores. The spheroidal aggregates are made up of kernels and concentric rings. The kernels are composed of approximately epigranular pyrite nanocrystals, while the rings are composed of accumulated pyrite microcrystals growing along the radial direction. The spheroidal pyrite aggregate and its outer zones can be divided into five areas(A–E). The results of electron probe micro analysis(EPMA) show that from the zone A1 to B, Co/Ni 〈1, the sum of Co and Ni is 0.08%–0.26%, S/Fe increases from 2.06 to 2.15. While from the zone C to E, Ni cannot be detected and S/Fe decreases from 2.22 to 2.08. Powder X-ray diffraction(XRD) analysis in the micro zone shows obvious crystalline characteristics in the aggregates. Moving from the inside outwards, the maximum diffraction peak intensity of the(111) and(220) crystal planes of pyrite increases, and the crystallinity improves. The degree of change in the(111) plane is the most prominent. Considering the theory of crystal growth along with the geologic features of the depositional environment where the spheroidal pyrite aggregates developed, we confirm that the spheroidal aggregates are the result of nano-micro crystalline gathering and growth occurring by the following sequence of processes:nano-crystalline nucleation and growth, gathering into a ball, oriented growth of microcrystals, continuous accumulation, and adjustment of grain boundaries. The formation of the spheroidal pyrite aggregates in the late Qiziqiao Formation of the Middle Devonian occurred in a neutral to weak alkaline and reductive sedimentary environment in the normal oxygen-rich shallowwater carbonate platform edge. The variations in the S/Fe ratio and crystallisation characteristics indicate that during pyrite crystal growth, the sulphur fugacity was high locally and rose constantly, the degree of supersaturation decreased locally and the growth environment was stable relatively.展开更多

Many indicators such as BSRs (Bottom-Simulating Reflections), which are thought to be related to gas hydrate, are found in the South China Sea (SCS) in recent years. The northeastern part of the SCS is taken as one of the most potentials in the area by many scientists. It is situated in the conjunction of the northern divergent continental margin and the eastern convergent island margin, whose geological settings are much preferable for gas hydrate to occur. Through this study, brightness temperature anomalies recorded by satellite-based thermal infrared remotely sensed images before or within the imminent earthquake, the high content of hydrocarbon gas acid-degassed from subsurface sediment and the high radioactive thermoluminescence value of subsurface sediment were found in the region. Sometimes brightness temperature anomalies alone exist in the surrounding of the Dongsha Islands. The highest content of hydrocarbon gas amounts to 393 μL methane per kilogram sediment and the highest radioactive thermoluminescence value is 31752 unit; their geometric averages are 60.5 μL/kg and 2688.9 unit respectively. What is more inspiring is that there are three sites where the methane contents are up to 243, 268 and 359μL/kg and their radioactive thermoluminescence values are 8430, 9537 and 20826 unit respectively. These three locations are just in the vicinity of one of the highest confident BSRs identified by predecessors. Meanwhile, the anomalies are generally coincident with other results such as headspace gas anomaly in the sediment and chloride anomaly in the interstitial water in the site 1146 of Leg 184. The above-mentioned anomalies are most possibly to indicate the occurrence of gas hydrate in the northeastern SCS.展开更多

Methods Medical records of patients suspected of coronary artery disease over a period of 12 months from a tertiary teaching hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Patient age, sex (male/female), duration of symptoms and abnormal rates of coronary CT angiography scans were analysed to investigate the relationship among these parameters. The patients by age were characterized into five groups: under 36 years, 36-45 years, 46-55 years, 56455 years and more than 66 years, respectively; while the duration of symptoms was also classified into five groups: less than one week, one week to one month, one to three months, three to six months and more than six months. Results Of the 880 patient records reviewed, 800 met the above study criteria. Five hundred and forty nine patients demonstrated abnormal CT findings (68.6%). There was no significant difference in the percentage of abnormal CT findings based on patient sex and the duration of symptoms (P = 0.14). The abnormal rates of coronary CT angiography, however, increased significantly with increasing age (P 〈 0.001); with patients over 65 years of age 2.5 times more likely to have an abnormal CT scan relative to a patient under 45 years. A significant difference was found between abnormal coronary CT angiography and the duration of symptoms (P = 0.012). Conclusions Our results indicate coronary CT angiography findings are significantly related to the patient age group and duration of symptoms. Clinical referral for coronary CT angiography of patients with suspected coronary artery disease needs to be justified with regard to the judicious use of this imaging modality.展开更多

The 2000ASGE guidelines were used to assess the appropriateness of the indications for the procedure. Diagnostic yield was defined as the ratio between significant findings detected on colonoscopy and the total number of procedures performed for that indication.RESULTS: The large majority (64%) of patients had colonoscopy for an indication that was considered'generally indicated'; it was 'generally not indicated' for20%, and it was 'not listed' for 16% in the guidelines.The diagnostic yield of colonoscopy was highest for the 'generally indicated' (38%) followed by 'not listed'(13%) and 'generally not indicated' (5%) categories.In the multivariable analysis, the diagnostic yield was independently associated with the appropriateness of indication that was 'generally indicated' (odds ratio=12.3) and referrals by gastroenterologist (odds ratio = 1.9).CONCLUSION: There is a high likelihood of inappropriate referrals for colonoscopy in an open-access endoscopy system. The diagnostic yield of the procedure is dependent on the appropriateness of indication and referring physician's specialty. Certain indications 'not listed' in the guidelines have an intermediate diagnostic yield and further studies are required to evaluate whether they should be included in future revisions of the ASGE guidelines.展开更多

Methods: Ninety-eight patients requiring cardiac surgeries were operated through this approaach. Incisions were made in the fourth or on intercostal space. The upper costal cartilage near the incision was routinely removed. Aortic cannulation was performed through the lateral wall of the aorta. The procedures on the heart itself were the same as that of the median sternotomy. Results: The average lengths of the incisions, for the male and female patients, were (10.6±3.2) cm and (10.3 ± 2.2) cm respectively. The mean bypass time was (61.3 ±t 25. 1) min, and the mean heart arrest time was (49.5±19.2) min. The postoperative drainage was (410± 125) ml. All but 1 patient with aortic valve operation had satisfactory exposure . The complications included chest pain (n = 5), rib fracture (n =3), pleural effusion (n=5), and pneumothorax(n=6). Conclusion: The right anterolateral tholacotomy was a satisfactory alternative of median sternotomy for the surgeries that can be performed through a right atrium access.展开更多

文摘Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is the preferred route of feeding and nutritional support in patients with a functional gastrointestinal system who require long-term enteral nutrition. Besides its well-known advantages over parenteral nutrition, PEG offers superior access to the gastrointestinal system over surgical methods. Considering that nowadays PEG tube placement is one of the most common endoscopic procedures performed worldwide, knowing its indications and contraindications is of paramount importance in current medicine. PEG tubes are sometimes placed inappropriately in patients unable to tolerate adequate oral intake because of incorrect and unrealistic understanding of their indications and what they can accomplish. Broadly, the two main indications of PEG tube placement are enteral feeding and stomach decompression. On the other hand, distal enteral obstruction, severe uncorrectable coagulopathy and hemodynamic instability constitute the main absolute contraindications for PEG tube placement in hospitalized patients. Although generally considered to be a safe procedure, there is the potential for both minor and major complications. Awareness of these potential complications, as well as understanding routine aftercare of the catheter, can improve the quality of care for patients with a PEG tube. These complications can generally be classified into three major categories: endoscopic technical difficulties, PEG procedure-related complications and late complications associated with PEG tube use and wound care. In this review we describe a variety of minor and major tube-related complications as well as strategies for their management and avoidance. Different methods of percutaneous PEG tube placement into the stomach have been described in the literature with the “pull” technique being the most common method. In the last section of this review, the reader is presented with a brief discussion of these procedures, techniques and related issues. Despite the mentioned PEG tube placement complications, this procedure has gained worldwide popularity as a safe enteral access for nutrition in patients with a functional gastrointestinal system.

文摘BACKGROUND:The development of collaterals in Budd-Chiari syndrome has been described and these collaterals play an important role in the presentation of this disease.These collaterals are diagnostic and their use in management strategy has never been evaluated.This study aimed to investigate the indications,feasibility and necessity of invasive treatment for patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome and to determine whether such a strategy is necessary for optimal management.METHODS:Twenty-nine patients who had been treated at our unit were enrolled in this study.Based on physical and biochemical examination,and hemodynamic compensation by collaterals,18 patients underwent radiological intervention (group A),while the other 11 had no invasive treatment (group B).The related hemodynamic parameters were acquired when percutaneous angiography was performed.RESULTS:In group A,all patients underwent successfully inferior vena cava (IVC) balloon angioplasty with or without stenting.Four patients also underwent hepatic vein angioplasty.In these patients,the mean IVC pressure before and after treatment was statistically different (29.3±9.2 vs 15.1±4.6 mmHg,P<0.01).The mean IVC pressure was much lower in group B than in group A (12.9±2.4 vs 29.3±9.2 mmHg,P<0.01),but there was no difference from that of the patients after radiological treatment (12.9±2.4 vs 15.1±4.6 mmHg,P>0.05).Median follow-up was 32.3 months (mean 21.3 months;range 3-61 months).In the course of follow-up,the patients in group A survived with good systemic status except for re-stenosis in one patient who underwent re-canalization of the IVC.In group B,10 patients had good systemic status except one patient who had a meso-caval shunt because of deterioration.CONCLUSIONS:The rationale of 'early diagnosis and early treatment' is not suitable for all patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome.Satisfactory survival can be achieved in some patients without invasive treatment,who are completely compensated by rich collaterals.Nonetheless,a positive treatment procedure should be performed if the patient's situation worsens in the course of regular follow-up.
文摘Objective:To reevaluate whether relatively few oocytes obtained in one cycle are an indication for intracytoplasmic sperm injection(ICSI).Methods:A total of 406 cycles with three or fewer retrieved oocytes performed in 396 non-male infertile couples were retrospectively reviewed.Cycles were classified into three groups by different fertilization techniques:the in vitro fertilization(IVF) group,insemination with conventional IVF;the ICSI group,insemination with ICSI though semen parameters were normal;and the rescue ICSI group,re-insemination with ICSI after conventional IVF failure.Results:The ICSI group resulted in higher normal fertilization compared with the conventional IVF group.Correspondingly,the cycle cancellation rate was decreased in the ICSI group,though it was not statistically significant.The clinical pregnancy rate and implantation rate were lower in the ICSI group compared with the conventional IVF group.Rescue ICSI was a method to avert total fertilization failure in conventional IVF,increasing fertilization and ensuring embryo availability for transfer,but the normal fertilization was the lowest due to delayed insemination and the chance of pregnancy was very little.Conclusions:Obtaining only few oocytes in one cycle is not considered as an indication for ICSI when the sperm sample is apparently normal.Rescue ICSI is either not recommended if conventional insemination fails.Such patients should not be subjected to the unnecessary costs and potential risks of ICSI.
文摘AIM Endoscopic pancreatic sphincterotomy is less widely practiced than biliary sphincterotomy, in part because of the lack of firm data regarding its indications and safety. In addition, recent reports of ductal and parenchymal changes occurring after pancreatic stenting raise concerns about the standard practice of stent placement at the time of pancreatic sphincterotomy. We report our experience with pancreatic sphincterotomy and describe the use of a technique involving overnight nasopancreatic drainage rather than stenting.METHODS We reviewed the records of the 164 pancreatic sphincterotomies performed on 160 patients at our institution between January 1, 1991, and October 1, 1996, comparing procedures done with overnight nasopancreatic catheter placement with those done with stenting or no drainage. We also examined the longterm clinical outcome of patients after pancreatic sphincterotomy.RESULTS Of the 164 sphincterotomies, 98 were done with overnight nasopancreatic drainage, 50 with stent placement, and 16 with no drainage. Complications (all pancreatitis) were significantly more frequent in the group with no drainage (125%) as compared with those with drainage (07%); P<0003. Nasopancreatic drainage was as safe as stent placement, with no complications after 98 procedures. Pancreatic sphincterotomy was effective when used as primary therapy, with 64% of patients so treated experiencing complete and longlasting resolution of symptoms after the procedure.CONCLUSION Pancreatic sphincterotomy is safe and effective, although pancreatic drainage is required to reduce the incidence of pancreatitis. Overnight nasopancreatic drainage is the method of choice, as it carries as low a complication rate as stent placement, but without the need for a repeat procedure, and presumably without the risk of ductal and parenchymal damage.

文摘Colloform pyrite is a special form of nano-micro polycrystalline aggregation growth,for which a suitable term is"aggregates of nano-micro crystals".This kind of colloform texture is observed in various geological bodies,such as ancient sedimentary rocks,modern marine and lake sediments,various types of ore deposits,and modern seafloor hydrothermal vents.This paper summarizes the latest developments and research into the definition,formation mechanisms,and environmental indications of colloform pyrite.There appears to be three main formation mechanisms of colloform pyrite:pseudomorphic replacement;biogenic precipitation;and inorganic precipitation.The morphology,particle size,trace element content and preferential growth orientations of coUoform pyrite microcrystals can be important indicators for sedimentary environments,hydrothermal activity,and ore-forming processes.We suggest that the microscopic features of nano-micro crystals in colloform pyrite and their aggregation growth patterns need further investigation.The relationships between formation mechanisms of colioform pyrite,organic activity and depositional environments require further exploration.To reveal the nature of nano-micro grain aggregation growth in colloform pyrite and analyse its growth environment and evolutionary history,it is supposed to apply nanoscientific and nanotechnological methods,further integrate consideration of macroscopic geological backgrounds and microscopic mineral growth phenomena,combine high-resolution imaging systems and in situ quantitative microanalysis methods and constitute a mergence of earth science,thermodynamics and kinetics,life science,material science,and chemistry in the study.

文摘Background Cardiac resynchronization therapy(CRT)is a highly effective treatment in patients with a class I recommendation.However,a small proportion of the strictly selected patients still fail to respond.This study was designed to identify predictors of non-response in patients with class I indications for CRT and determine the non-response probability of the patients.Methods A total of 296 consecutive patients with a class I recommendation received CRT from January 2009 to January 2017 were retrospectively analyzed.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify predictors for non-response(defined as cardiac death,heart transplantation,or HF hospitalization during 1-year follow-up).Results Among 296 patients,30(10.1%)met non-response.Multivariate analysis demonstrated that non-response to CRT was associated with a fragmented QRS(odd ratio(OR)=2.86,95%CI:1.14–7.12;P=0.025)and left ventricular end-diastolic dimension(LVEDD)≥77 mm(OR=3.02,95%CI:1.17–7.82;P=0.022).Patients with both of the predictors had a non-response probability of 46.2%(95%CI:19.1%–73.3%).Conclusion In patients with left bundle branch block and wider QRS duration,the proportion of non-response to CRT is not low in real world.The presence of the dilated LVEDD or fragmented QRS is a strong predictor of non-response to CRT.The probability of non-response in the patients with the two predictors was 46.2%.

文摘AIM: To identify the current indications and the trend shifts for penetrating keraboplasty (PKP) in Shandong. METHODS: The medical charts of all patients who underwent PKP at Shandong Eye Institute from June 1, 2005 to May 31, 2010 were analysed retrospectively. RESULTS: A total of 875 patients (875 eyes) received PKP in this 5-year period, accounting for 61.6% of all corneal transplantation surgeries. The leading indications for PKP were infectious keratitis (37.1%), HSK (19.1%), keratoconus (11.2%), bullous keratopathy (8.5%), regrafting (6.7%) and corneal scarring (4.8%). The percentage of PKP for keratoconus declined year by year, whereas the percentage of bullous keratopathy had a mild annual increase. Fungal infections accounted for 65.2% of the infectious keratitis cases, remaining the leading cause of corneal infection. In addition, 54.1% of bullous keratopathy cases were associated with cataract surgery. The leading initial diagnoses associated with regrafting were infectious keratitis (38.9%), HSK (18.6%) and corneal burn (16.9%). The major causes of regrafting included graft endothelial dysfunction (39.0%), graft ulcer (28.8%) and primary disease recurrence (15.3%). CONCLUSION: Infectious keratitis remained the leading indication for PKP in Shandong, and fungal infections were still the major cause of corneal infections. There was an increasing trend in the percentage of PKP cases indicated for bullous keratopathy but a decline in the same for keratoconus. Even with a decline in the overall proportion among all corneal transplantation surgeries, PKP is still the major corneal transplant choice in Shandong.

文摘Endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD) is the most advanced and representative technique in the field of therapeutic endoscopy and has been used for the treatment of gastrointestinal neoplasms,including early gastric cancer.The major difference and advantage of ESD compared to existing endoscopic resection techniques,such as endoscopic mucosal resection(EMR) and polypectomy,are the width and depth of the resection.Newly developed cutting devices,distal attachable endoscopic accessories,and an advanced electrosurgical unit have helped to overcome the limitations of therapeutic endoscopy in terms of lesion size,location,presence of fibrotic scarring,and accompanying ulcers.As a result,the indications for ESD have been expanded from the classical indication for EMR and polypectomy,and there is now support for a further expansion of ESD indications.At present,the most critical factor to consider in the decision of whether to perform ESD is the probability of unexpected lymph node metastasis.The guidelines for ESD are continually being updated and debated.In this review,we discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the expanded guidelines,based on evidence found in the literature.
文摘AIM: To report the indications for and techniques of corneal transplantation at Vietnam National Institute of Ophthalmology (VNIO) over a period of 12y (2002-2013), METHODS: Records of patients who had undergone corneal transplantation at VNIO from January 1, 2002 to January 1, 2014 were reviewed to determine the indication for and type of corneal transplant performed. Patient age, gender, indication for corneal transplantation and surgical technique were recorded and analyzed. RESULTS: Corneal transplantation were underwent in 1390 eyes of 1278 patients with a mean age of 44.9±18.1y during the period under review. The most common indication was infectious corneal ulcer (n=670; 48.2%), followed by corneal scar (n=333, 24.0% ), corneal dystrophy (n=138, 9.9%) and failed graft (n=112, 8.1%). Nearly all procedures performed were penetrating keratoplasty (n=1300, 93.5% ), with a few lamellar keratoplasty procedures performed: lamellar keratoplasty (n=52, 3.7%), Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (n =27, 1.9% ) and deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (n =11, 0.8%).CONCLUSION: While the most common indication for keratoplasty was infectious keratitis, nearly all indications for corneal transplantation were managed with penetrating keratoplasty, However, lamellar keratoplasty techniques, including deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty and Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty, are being performed with increasing frequency for isolated stromal and endothelial disorders, respectively,

文摘The Baiyunpu deposit lies in the southwest plunging Dachengshan anticline in central Hunan, which is a large Pb-Zn polymetallic deposit. The orebodies were surrounded by the Qiziqiao Formation limestone in the Middle Devonian, and its geological occurrence is consistent with the wall rocks. A large number of spheroidal pyrite aggregates are found unevenly distributed in the ores. The spheroidal aggregates are made up of kernels and concentric rings. The kernels are composed of approximately epigranular pyrite nanocrystals, while the rings are composed of accumulated pyrite microcrystals growing along the radial direction. The spheroidal pyrite aggregate and its outer zones can be divided into five areas(A–E). The results of electron probe micro analysis(EPMA) show that from the zone A1 to B, Co/Ni 〈1, the sum of Co and Ni is 0.08%–0.26%, S/Fe increases from 2.06 to 2.15. While from the zone C to E, Ni cannot be detected and S/Fe decreases from 2.22 to 2.08. Powder X-ray diffraction(XRD) analysis in the micro zone shows obvious crystalline characteristics in the aggregates. Moving from the inside outwards, the maximum diffraction peak intensity of the(111) and(220) crystal planes of pyrite increases, and the crystallinity improves. The degree of change in the(111) plane is the most prominent. Considering the theory of crystal growth along with the geologic features of the depositional environment where the spheroidal pyrite aggregates developed, we confirm that the spheroidal aggregates are the result of nano-micro crystalline gathering and growth occurring by the following sequence of processes:nano-crystalline nucleation and growth, gathering into a ball, oriented growth of microcrystals, continuous accumulation, and adjustment of grain boundaries. The formation of the spheroidal pyrite aggregates in the late Qiziqiao Formation of the Middle Devonian occurred in a neutral to weak alkaline and reductive sedimentary environment in the normal oxygen-rich shallowwater carbonate platform edge. The variations in the S/Fe ratio and crystallisation characteristics indicate that during pyrite crystal growth, the sulphur fugacity was high locally and rose constantly, the degree of supersaturation decreased locally and the growth environment was stable relatively.
文摘Gas hydrate, mainly composed of hydrocarbon gas and water, is considered to be a clean energy in the 21st century. Many indicators such as BSRs (Bottom-Simulating Reflections), which are thought to be related to gas hydrate, are found in the South China Sea (SCS) in recent years. The northeastern part of the SCS is taken as one of the most potentials in the area by many scientists. It is situated in the conjunction of the northern divergent continental margin and the eastern convergent island margin, whose geological settings are much preferable for gas hydrate to occur. Through this study, brightness temperature anomalies recorded by satellite-based thermal infrared remotely sensed images before or within the imminent earthquake, the high content of hydrocarbon gas acid-degassed from subsurface sediment and the high radioactive thermoluminescence value of subsurface sediment were found in the region. Sometimes brightness temperature anomalies alone exist in the surrounding of the Dongsha Islands. The highest content of hydrocarbon gas amounts to 393 μL methane per kilogram sediment and the highest radioactive thermoluminescence value is 31752 unit; their geometric averages are 60.5 μL/kg and 2688.9 unit respectively. What is more inspiring is that there are three sites where the methane contents are up to 243, 268 and 359μL/kg and their radioactive thermoluminescence values are 8430, 9537 and 20826 unit respectively. These three locations are just in the vicinity of one of the highest confident BSRs identified by predecessors. Meanwhile, the anomalies are generally coincident with other results such as headspace gas anomaly in the sediment and chloride anomaly in the interstitial water in the site 1146 of Leg 184. The above-mentioned anomalies are most possibly to indicate the occurrence of gas hydrate in the northeastern SCS.
文摘Objective To investigate the clinical applications of coronary CT angiography in patients with suspected coronary artery disease and identify factors that affect CT findings. Methods Medical records of patients suspected of coronary artery disease over a period of 12 months from a tertiary teaching hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Patient age, sex (male/female), duration of symptoms and abnormal rates of coronary CT angiography scans were analysed to investigate the relationship among these parameters. The patients by age were characterized into five groups: under 36 years, 36-45 years, 46-55 years, 56455 years and more than 66 years, respectively; while the duration of symptoms was also classified into five groups: less than one week, one week to one month, one to three months, three to six months and more than six months. Results Of the 880 patient records reviewed, 800 met the above study criteria. Five hundred and forty nine patients demonstrated abnormal CT findings (68.6%). There was no significant difference in the percentage of abnormal CT findings based on patient sex and the duration of symptoms (P = 0.14). The abnormal rates of coronary CT angiography, however, increased significantly with increasing age (P 〈 0.001); with patients over 65 years of age 2.5 times more likely to have an abnormal CT scan relative to a patient under 45 years. A significant difference was found between abnormal coronary CT angiography and the duration of symptoms (P = 0.012). Conclusions Our results indicate coronary CT angiography findings are significantly related to the patient age group and duration of symptoms. Clinical referral for coronary CT angiography of patients with suspected coronary artery disease needs to be justified with regard to the judicious use of this imaging modality.
文摘AIM: To assess the appropriateness of referrals and to determine the diagnostic yield of colonoscopy according to the 2000 guidelines of the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE).METHODS: A total of 736 consecutive patients (415males, 321 females; mean age 43.6±16.6 years)undergoing colonoscopy during October 2001-March2002 Were prospectively enrolled in the study. The 2000ASGE guidelines were used to assess the appropriateness of the indications for the procedure. Diagnostic yield was defined as the ratio between significant findings detected on colonoscopy and the total number of procedures performed for that indication.RESULTS: The large majority (64%) of patients had colonoscopy for an indication that was considered'generally indicated'; it was 'generally not indicated' for20%, and it was 'not listed' for 16% in the guidelines.The diagnostic yield of colonoscopy was highest for the 'generally indicated' (38%) followed by 'not listed'(13%) and 'generally not indicated' (5%) categories.In the multivariable analysis, the diagnostic yield was independently associated with the appropriateness of indication that was 'generally indicated' (odds ratio=12.3) and referrals by gastroenterologist (odds ratio = 1.9).CONCLUSION: There is a high likelihood of inappropriate referrals for colonoscopy in an open-access endoscopy system. The diagnostic yield of the procedure is dependent on the appropriateness of indication and referring physician's specialty. Certain indications 'not listed' in the guidelines have an intermediate diagnostic yield and further studies are required to evaluate whether they should be included in future revisions of the ASGE guidelines.
文摘Objective: To define the indications for cardiac surgeries through right anterolateral thoracotomy, and render it clinically feasible in a carefully controlled scope. Methods: Ninety-eight patients requiring cardiac surgeries were operated through this approaach. Incisions were made in the fourth or on intercostal space. The upper costal cartilage near the incision was routinely removed. Aortic cannulation was performed through the lateral wall of the aorta. The procedures on the heart itself were the same as that of the median sternotomy. Results: The average lengths of the incisions, for the male and female patients, were (10.6±3.2) cm and (10.3 ± 2.2) cm respectively. The mean bypass time was (61.3 ±t 25. 1) min, and the mean heart arrest time was (49.5±19.2) min. The postoperative drainage was (410± 125) ml. All but 1 patient with aortic valve operation had satisfactory exposure . The complications included chest pain (n = 5), rib fracture (n =3), pleural effusion (n=5), and pneumothorax(n=6). Conclusion: The right anterolateral tholacotomy was a satisfactory alternative of median sternotomy for the surgeries that can be performed through a right atrium access.

文摘The development of endoscopic treatment technology has further promoted the minimally invasive treatment of early gastric cancer(EGC).Endoscopic treatment has achieved better therapeutic effects in terms of safety and prognosis and is the preferred treatment method for patients who meet the indications for endoscopic treatment.However,the consequent problem is that some patients receiving endoscopic treatment may undergo non-curative resection,and the principle of follow-up management for non-curative resection patients deserves further attention.In addition,there are still debates on how to improve the accuracy of clinical staging,select a reasonable treatment method for patients who meet the expanded indications for endoscopic treatment,manage patients with positive endoscopic surgical margins,conduct research on function-preserving surgery,and manage the treatment of EGC under the current situation in China.Consequently,we aim to review current indications for endoscopic submucosal dissection of EGC in order to better inform treatment options.
