Objective To analyze the effect of meglumine diatrizoate on diagnosing and treating adhesiveness small intestinal obstruction. Methods The clinic data of 484 cases of adhesiveness small intestinal obstruction were analyzed retrospectively. Those patients were treated with radiography with 76% of meglumine diatrizoate by orally or injected. Results After taking meglumine diatrizoate, 362 patients were cured, and the other 122 cases were diagnosed clearly and treated with surgery. Conclusions Meglumine diatrizoate can be used to diagnose adhesiveness small intestinal obstruction and confirm where the obstruction is. It can be the routine treatment for adhesiveness small intestinal obstruction and can be used repeatedly. It also can provide evidence to surgical treatment and guide to make the surgical project.
目的 观察泛影葡胺在粘连性肠梗阻中的诊断及治疗效果和手术时机的选择。方法 对137例粘连性肠梗阻患者经胃管注入76%泛影葡胺60~100 ml行胃肠道造影，通过腹部X线摄片动态观察造影剂在胃肠道中的位置及通过情况，以确定梗阻部位以及梗阻是否完全，从而确定手术时机。结果 137例中103例造影剂在6~24 h后到达结肠而给予保守治疗，平均症状缓解时间为14.8 h，1~6 d (平均3.3 d)后症状消失。另34例见造影剂不能到达结肠且症状体征加重而行手术治疗,痊愈。结论 泛影葡胺胃肠道造影在对粘连性肠梗阻明确梗阻部位及手术时机的选择方面有很好的指导作用，可作为临床医师诊断与治疗粘连性肠梗阻的一种手段。
Objective To formulate an individualized evidence-based treatment for a first-diagnosed patient with coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula. Methods Aiming at the issue of whether interventional operation was necessary for first-diagnosed coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula or not, the computer retrieval was conducted in the US National Guideline Clearinghouse, The Cochrane Library, PubMed and MEDLINE from 1990 to 2011, to collect and assess the best evidence of relevant systematic reviews, randomized controlled trials, controlled clinical trials and treatment guidelines, in order to be applied in clinical treatment. Results There were 1 clinical guideline for treating coronary artery fistula and 3 different high-quality evidence studies were retrieved. The results showed percutaneous coronary intervention was the best treatment currently. According to the obtained evidence and patient’s willingness, the relevant examinations were taken, and the preoperative preparation for percutaneous coronary intervention was done actively after the patient was admitted. Three days after hospitalization, the selective coronary angiography showed right coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula and left coronary circumflexus artery-left atrial multiple fistulae, then the percutaneous coronary intervention spring coil embolization was successfully conducted for right coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula. After operation, bayasprin enteric-coated tablets 0.1 g/d was taken for anti-platelet aggregation and preventing thrombotic diseases. The observation during operation and postoperative 5-day hospitalization showed no relevant complications. Conclusion Percutaneous coronary intervention is safe and effective for the symptomatic patients with coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula.
Objective To investigate the lung involvement in Chinese patients with systemic sclerosis ( SSc) and its functional impact. Methods 68 patients with SSc were enrolled in Scleroderma study of PUMCH ( Peking Union Medical College Hospital) . All the patients underwent high resolution computed tomography ( HRCT) , pulmonary function testing, 6-minute walk testing, and echocardiography. And 36 patients filled in the Saint George’s Respiratory Questionnaire ( SGRQ) for assessment of healthrelated quality of life. Results HRCT revealed interstitial lung disease ( ILD) in 52 ( 76. 5% ) patients, 20 out of them without respiratory symptoms. Reticular opacification, ground-glass opacity ( GGO) , traction bronchiectasis, and honeycomb were presented respectively in 80.8% , 73.1% , 59.6% , and 30.8% of patients with SSc-ILD. Fibrosis was the predominant HRCT finding, and pure GGO ( in the absence of reticulation or architectural distortion) was only present in 8 ( 15. 7% ) patients. 57 (83.8% ) patients presented with diffusion defect, with most of them having moderate to severe impairent. Reduced FVC or TLC presented in 20 ( 29.4% ) and 28 ( 41.2% ) of patients respectively. The significant correlation was observed between the DLCO and the extent of ILD on HRCT ( rs = -0.476, P =0.000) . DLCO showed significant correlations with all the four components of the SGRQ ( Plt;0.05) . Significant correlations were also observed among the SGRQ scores and SpO2 ( maximum desaturation) or Borg index. Stepwise multiple regression analysis confirmed that the DLCO, SpO2 , and Borg index contributed to the SGRQ. Conclusions Lung involvement in Chinese SSc patients is common and insidious. The HRCT features of SSc-ILD are predominant fibrosis plus GGO, indicating little reversibility. Thus HRCT should be performed routinely in newly diagnosed SSc patients for early screening of lung involvement. The lung function defect of SSc is characterized by reduced diffusing capacity, and DLCO show better correlations with HRCT abnormities or SGRQ than FVC or TLC. Thus DLCO is of great value for early detection or severity assessment of SSc-ILD. SGRQ can be used to examine the health related quality of life of SSc patients and may reflect severity of lung involvement.
