Differential Diagnosis of Acute Diarrhea

Acute diarrhea is a condition of increased water stool content, stool volume, and number of bowel movements that lasts less than 14 days. Mild diarrhea is usually self-limiting; however, undertreated moderate to severe diarrhea may cause severe dehydration and lead to hypovolemic shock. In order to prevent severe dehydration and treat patients appropriately, it is crucial for health care providers to determine the right diagnosis of patients with acute diarrhea. This article focuses on pathophysiology, general patient presentation, diagnostic tests and differential diagnosis lists of acute diarrhea to discuss which diagnosis should be made based on patient presentation and objective data.     

Bench to bedside: recent advances in lung cancer pathological research with implications for diagnostic clinical practice

After decades of relative stagnation lung cancer is emerging as a disease type where rapid progress is being made in diagnosis and therapy, as well as in our understanding of disease biology. Much of this progress is of immediate impact to diagnosticians, and more is likely to affect diagnostic practice in the near future. In this review we seek to briefly summarize several key areas of active research of immediate or probable imminent value to trainee and consultant pulmonary pathologists alike. We cover some major changes in tumour classification, grading, and patient stratification, as well as considering the state of the art in machine-assisted interpretation of lung cancer histology, and the use of genetically modified lung cancer models.     

烟雾病临床分型研究进展

烟雾病（moyamoya disease，MMD）是一种颈内动脉末端及其分支起始处进行性狭窄伴颅底异常血管网形成的脑血管疾病，临床上常将其分为缺血型、出血型和无症状型。随着诊疗技术的进步，对MMD临床分型的流行病学特征认识也在不断发展。在成年患者中，缺血型MMD占有重要地位，无症状型亦呈逐渐增多的趋势。不同临床分型MMD的发病年龄、遗传背景、病理生理机制、侧支血管代偿、受累血管分布及其预后存在显著差异。本文总结了对MMD临床分型流行病学特征认识的历史演变，不同临床分型可能的遗传背景、病理生理机制和影像学表现上的差异，为基于不同临床分型的MMD治疗决策提供新的思路。     

中日友好医院分型股骨头坏死腓骨植入治疗的三维有限元分析

文题释义：股骨头坏死中日友好医院分型的有限元分析：根据李子荣等提出的中日友好医院分型，建立股骨头坏死三维模型，分为 M型(内侧型)、C型(中央型)和 L型(外侧型)，其中 L型包括L1型(次外侧型)、L2型(极外侧型)和 L3型(全头型)。通过对建立的模型进行有限元分析，为该分型的保髋治疗提供了一定力学依据，显示外侧柱的存留是精准预防塌陷的重要因素，为进一步实现个体化治疗提供力学基础。 腓骨支撑坏死股骨头保髋手术：是对于早中期股骨头坏死需要保留股骨头患者进行的一种手术方式。首先需对股骨头进行髓芯减压，清除一定坏死骨，空腔填塞松质骨(髂骨为主)，打压结实后植入腓骨(异体或自体)支撑，给坏死区的提供力学支撑及生物学修复，预防股骨头进一步坏死及塌陷。 背景：研究报道股骨头坏死的保髋疗效与外侧柱存留密切相关，中日友好医院分型是根据三柱结构确立的，对股骨头塌陷的预测准确性高。 目的：建立股骨头坏死中日友好医院分型各分型仿真的三维有限元模型，通过有限元分析各分型腓骨植入的力学变化，探讨外侧柱存留对保髋疗效的意义，为该分型的塌陷精准预测提供基础。 方法：建立正常股骨头、中日友好医院分型(M型、C型、L1型、L2型、L3型)股骨头坏死及其腓骨植入3组11种三维有限元模型，运用ANSYS软件进行有限元分析计算，观察各组模型的最大应力值、最大位移值及股骨头内部载荷传递模式。 结果与结论：①坏死组位移最大，应变最大，且因坏死分型不同而位移不同，位移变化如下：M型相似文献   

骨盆骨折大出血救治技术与流程

由于骨盆的特殊结构,其内侧的血管网损伤导致不可压迫性出血。即使创伤中心和救治体系的建设,以及损害控制技术等发展,病死率仍然高达30%~60%。损害控制性复苏、骨盆带、外固定支架、复苏性腹主动脉内球囊阻断(REBOA)、动脉栓塞和腹膜外填塞等技术不断发展,部分已经得到普及,但迄今仍没有公认的确定性止血流程。我国正在普遍建设创伤中心,亟待制订适合我国的骨盆骨折大出血患者的救治流程,以提高救治成功率。本文阐述控制骨盆骨折大出血的外科技术和流程进展供同道参考。     

Tongue cancer treatment and oncological outcomes: The role of glossectomy classification

BackgroundNowadays surgery remains the gold standard of treatment for tongue cancer. Via a more clear and precise terminology, the glossectomy classification by Ansarin et al. facilitates shared communication between surgeons, allowing comparison between published research and improving surgical practice and patient care. To establish the association of glossectomies, according to their classification by Ansarin et al. with overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DSF), and cause-specific survival (CSS) in tongue cancer, we conducted a systemic retrospective study on 300 consecutive patients affected by primary oral tongue cancer and treated with surgery at the European Institute of Oncology, IRCCS (IEO).MethodsThree hundred patients with tongue squamous cell carcinoma and treated at the Division of Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery of the European Institute of Oncology, IRCCS were cataloged according to the glossectomy classification. OS, DFS, and CSS were compared by surgical treatments.ResultsOS-5yrs was 80% for the type I glossectomy group, 75% for type II, 65% for type III, and 35% for type IV-V. DFS-5yrs was 74%, 60%, 55%, and 27%, respectively for I, II, III, and IV-V glossectomy group; CSS-5yrs was 82%, 80%, 72%, and 48%, respectively for I, II, III, and IV-V glossectomy group (p < 0.01).ConclusionsThis study confirmed that the application of the glossectomy classification was statistically correlated with patients' oncological outcomes.     

应用锥形束CT对种植区牙槽骨质量分类方法的改良研究

目的    应用锥形束CT（cone beam CT，CBCT）测量种植区牙槽骨质量并结合Lekholm和Zarb分类法对骨质量分类方法进行改良，以期为提高牙槽骨质量分类的准确性提供指导。方法    选择2015年10月至2017年10月在呼和浩特市口腔医院种植科进行种植修复的196例患者术前CBCT影像资料，应用 Invivo5诊断设计软件测量306个种植位点的牙槽骨皮质骨厚度和松质骨密度（皮质骨与松质骨的CT值差值），以Lekholm和Zarb分类法为基础结合测量数据对骨质量进行改良后的量化分类。结果    牙槽骨皮质骨厚度为0.18 ~ 2.89 mm，中位数为0.92 mm。皮质骨与松质骨的CT值差值为88.5 ~ 667.8 HU，应用百分位数法找到33.3%和66.6%对应的数值分别为297.8 HU和356.1 HU。依据此数据结合Lekholm和Zarb分类法将196例患者的306个种植位点骨质量分为4类，其中Ⅰ类骨种植位点46个（占15.0%），Ⅱ类骨104个（占34.0%），Ⅲ类骨114个（占37.3%），Ⅳ类骨42个（占13.7%）。结论    结合Lekholm和Zarb分类法，应用CBCT测量种植区牙槽骨质量并进行分类方法的改良，可为临床医生术前评估牙槽骨质量提供一定参考。
