医科院校师生对考试现状看法的调查与分析

医科院校的考试主要是学科考试。调查显示，教师和学生对目前的学科考试模式评价均不高，存在的最主要弊端是考试方法单一，考试管理不够科学、严谨，考风不好；认为作弊的主要原因在于学生自己学习不努力、社会风气影响以及学校对教师和学生要求不够严格。因此，要搞好考试改革，提高考试质量，必须着重从改革考试方法、加强考试管理的改革与研究、整顿考风、制定科学的成绩评定方法、加强能力考核、实施教考分离等方面进行探索与实践。

目的 探讨辅助检查在诊断亚急性甲状腺炎中的作用。方法 回顾分析372例亚急性甲状腺炎病人所做的各项辅助检查结果。结果 血沉，B超，彩色多普勒，甲状腺核素扫描，甲状腺吸^131I率测定，细针穿刺细胞学，TMA，TGA等项检查诊断本病的阳性率分别为93.75%,81.63%,95.62%,89.66%,69.70%,89.41%,13.46%和9.62%。T3，T4，TSH检查结果随着病程的进展变化较大。结论 血沉检查对诊断本病缺乏特异性；彩色多普勒，细针穿刺细胞学检查诊断率高，特异性强，是首选的检查手段；甲状腺核素扫描可以准确地反映甲状腺功能状态；检测血清中T3，T4，TSH水平可以协助诊断本病，判断疾病所处时期。     

The need for future surgical low rectal cancer studies

Optimal surgery remains the mainstay of best outcome for rectal cancer. The demonstration, during the 3rd Annual Pelican Surgical Workshop Symposium, of an abdomino‐perineal excision (APE) performed in the ‘Berlin position’, further added to the debate on optimal surgical technique. Much interest was created at the 1st Pelican symposium with the demonstration, by the Swedish surgeon Dr Torbjorn Holm, of a prone APE and the delivery of a ‘cylindrical’ specimen and the potential to reduce local recurrence using this approach. The high rates of local recurrence following APE and the discussions as to optimal technique have led to the development of a proposed MERCURY Study Group study to assess the benefit of a radical APE, with careful assessment of the impact that this operation may have on morbidity. A German study has also been proposed adopting the UK's multidisciplinary team approach. It aims at targeting preoperative chemoradiotherapy at those patients in whom a radical APE or total mesorectal excision is likely to result in an involved surgical resection margin. In this article we review the evidence for improving the surgical technique for low rectal cancer. We believe improvements may be best achieved through continued European prospective, multi‐centre, multidisciplinary studies.     

腹泻型与便秘型肠易激综合征直肠肛管动力和感觉功能的不同特点

目的 研究腹泻型与便秘型肠易激综合征（IBS）病人直肠肛管动力和直肠感觉功能的不同特点。方法 选择IBS病人85例，分成两组。其中腹泻组52例，便秘组33例，20例健康志愿者为对照组，采用PC Polygraf ID高分辨率多道胃肠功能测定仪，分别测定直肠肛管压力、直肠感知阈值、排便阈值、最大耐受量和直肠肛门抑制反射最低充气量。结果IBS病人的直肠静息压、肛管静息压和直肠肛门抑制反射最低充气量与健康对照组比较无显著性差异。腹泻组的最大缩窄压和排便阈值显著低于健康对照组。便秘组的松弛压、直肠感知阈值、排便阈值和最大耐受量显著高于健康对照组。结论腹泻型IBS病人的症状与最大缩窄压和排便闽值降低有关；而便秘型则与松弛压、直肠感知阈值、排便阈值和最大耐受量显著增高有关。     

骨髓转移癌的骨髓象诊断及临床分析

目的 探讨临床表现及骨髓象改变在骨髓转移癌患者诊断中的意义。方法 对41例骨髓转移癌患者的临床资料及骨髓象进行分析，观察主要临床改变。结果 所有病例均在髓片可找到多少不等的成团、成簇的转移癌细胞，且形态学可见明显异常改变。结论 对明确诊断为恶性肿瘤的患者常规骨髓穿刺涂片可早期发现骨髓转移，多部位或多次穿刺涂片可提高阳性发现率。     

脑血管造影和介入治疗过程中脑动脉痉挛的发生和治疗

目的探索脑血管造影和介入治疗过程中脑血管痉挛(CVS)的发生、表现和治疗效果。方法400例患者经股动脉穿刺对双侧颈内动脉、椎动脉等行数字减影血管造影检查共470例次,其中,52例在造影后接受了介入治疗。造影剂为含碘300mg/mL的非离子型造影剂。对造影和治疗过程中出现重度CVS者经导管注入0.3%罂粟碱10mL解痉。结果造影和介入治疗过程中CVS的发生率为17.7%(83/470),其表现为颈动脉管壁不光整,呈波浪状14例(16.9%),颈动脉管腔轻度变窄36例(43.4%),中度25例(30.1%),重度6例(7.2%),颈内动脉不显影2例(2.4%)。轻至中度CVS未作特殊治疗,无不良反应或后遗症发生;8例重度痉挛者经导管注入罂粟碱后6例明显缓解,1例遗留后遗症,1例病死。结论脑血管造影和介入治疗过程中CVS的发生率不容忽视,造影剂的高渗刺激、导管导丝机械性刺激和血管内压力改变是CVS的高危因素,动脉内注入罂粟碱有良好的解痉作用。     

Benefits of the DICOM Structured Report

Recently, the digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) standard introduced rules for the encoding, transmission, and storage of the imaging diagnostic report. This medical document can be stored and communicated with the images in picture archiving and communication system (PACS). It is a structured document that contains text with links to other data such as images, waveforms, and spatial or temporal coordinates. Its structure, along with its wide use of coded information, enables the semantic understanding of the data that is essential for the Electronic Healthcare Record deployment. In this article, we present DICOM Structured Report (SR) and discuss its benefits. We show how SR enables efficient radiology workflow, improves patient care, optimizes reimbursement, and enhances the radiology ergonomic working conditions. As structured input significantly alters the interpretation process, understanding all its benefits is necessary to support the change.

Development of phantom for radiographic image optimization of standard patient in the lateral view of chest and skull examination

We present the construction of a homogeneous phantom to be used in simulating the scattering and absorption of X-rays by a standard patient chest and skull when irradiated laterally. This phantom consisted of lucite and aluminium plates with their thickness determined by a tomographic exploratory method applied to the anthropomorphic phantom. Using this phantom, an optimized radiographic technique was established for chest and skull of standard sized patient in lateral view. Images generated with this optimized technique demonstrated improved image quality and reduced radiation doses.     

Digital echocardiography in myocardial infarction

Probably the most under-utilised application of echocardiography is in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). This under-utilisation is striking since echocardiography can be very valuable in evaluating the natural history and therapy of CAD. One reason why echocardiography is not being utilised to its fullest is because of the reliance on videotape to record and display echocardiograms. This medium is time consuming and inconvenient for clinicians to review studies, it is not ideal for detecting subtle wall motion abnormalities, and videotape is impractical for comparing serial studies. Recording and storing echocardiograms on a digital medium overcomes these difficulties. Digital cine loops of single cardiac cycles provide great versatility. Multiple views or studies can be displayed simultaneously, subtle changes in wall motion are more easily detected and different views, or serial studies, can be readily compared. Such images can be displayed on computers on the ward or in the coronary care unit (CCU) and be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week at the convenience of the clinician. One does not need to find a recording on a two hour videotape, which may be in the ultrasound instrument, and one can view the exam in 30 sec instead of 5 to 10 min. Regional and global left ventricular function is one of the most important manifestations of CAD. With new therapeutic efforts at restoring myocardial function and limiting infant expansion, assessing LV function is more important than ever. Digital echocardiography is an extremely practical and convenient way for clinicians to obtain this information.
