[ Method] The epidemic status of APP in lesion tissues of 186 death pigs and 545 health pigs without clinical symptoms was analyzed by PCR method. [ Result] APP positive rate in 186 samples accounted for 43.0% （80/186）, while that in 545 porcine serums accounted for 9.4% （51/545）. [ Conclusion] This PCR method can be used as one of the important means for APP clinical diagnosis.展开更多

[Method] Through ar- tificial injection of allantoic liquid containing ILTV into chickens to induce infectious laryngotracheitis, the clinical symptoms in infected chickens were observed; tissues of trachea, lungs, heart, liver, kidney and spleen were collected from dead chickens, and prepared into paraffin sections, followed by histopathological observation under a microscope. [Results] This disease occured in the inoculated chickens 3d later, with a morbidity rate of 95%. The main symptoms were dyspnea, asthma and coughing up of bloody exudate; yellowish-white pseudomembrane was observed on dissected larynx trachea; swelling, haemorrhage, and further erosion were observed on the in- fected tracheal mucosa, resulting in death of chickens, with the mortality rate of 25%; histopathological observation showed that parenchymal organs exhibited exuda- tive inflammation; swelling, degeneration, necrosis and shedding of epithelial cells were observed; disturbance of blood circulation occured.[Conclusion] This study pro- vides reference bases for the treatment of ILT.展开更多

Methods Based on randoming and multi-central clinical trial principle, the included 276 cases were randomized into experimental group （138 cases） and control group （138 cases） in statistics. Electric acupuncture on Dazhui（大椎 GV14） was applied in experimental group and the injection with antondine was in control group. The immediate antipyretic and clinical therapeutic effects were observed in 24 h. Results The body temperatures at different times in experimental group were all lower than those in control group after treatment （P〈 0.01 ）. The scores of relevant symptoms in 3- 24 h after treatment were lower than those in control group （P〈0.05）. The response time （1.42± 1.79） h in experimental group was shorter than that （3.44±5.10） h in control group （P〈0.05）. The response times for chills, soreness of limbs, headach and sweating in experimental group were shorter than those in control group （P〈0. 01 ）. The recovery times for chills and headache in experimental group were shorter than those in control group （P〈0.05）. The systematic therapeutic effects were different significantly between two groups in 24 h （P〈0.05）. Conclusion Acupuncture on Dazhui（大椎 GV14） had achieved definite effects on treatment for high fever in common cold. It released remarkably chills, soreness of limbs, headache and sweating and improved the systematic therapeutic effects on common cold.展开更多

METHODS:Thirty-one patients diagnosed as abdominal TB between March 1998 and December 2001 at the Gastroenterology Department of Kartal State Hospital, Istanbul,Turkey were evaluated prospectively.Complete physical examination,medical and family history,blood count erythrocyte sedimentation rate,routine biochemical tests, Mantoux skin test,chest X-ray and abdominal ultrasonography (USG) were performed in all cases,whereas microbiological examination of ascites,upper gastrointestinal endoscopy,colonoscopy or barium enema,abdominal tomography,mediastinoscopy,laparoscopy or laparotomy were done when needed. RESULTS:The median age of patients (14 females,17 males) was 34.2 years (range 15-65 years).The most frequent symptoms were abdominal pain and weight loss. Eleven patients had active pulmonary TB.The most common abdominal USG findings were ascites and hepatomegaly.Ascitic fluid analysis performed in 13 patients was found to be exudative and acid resistant bacilli were present in smear and cultured only in one patient with BacTec (3.2%).Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy yielded nonspecific findings in 16 patients.Colonoscopy performed in 20 patients showed ulcers in 9 (45%),nodules in 2 (10%) and,stricture,polypoid lesions,granulomatous findings in terminal ileum and rectal fistula each in one patient (5%). Laparoscopy on 4 patients showed dilated bowel loops, thickening in the mesentery,multiple ulcers and tubercles on the peritoneum.Patients with abdominal TB were divided into three groups according to the type of involvement. Fifteen patients (48%) had intestinal TB,11 patients (35.2%) had tuberculous peritonitis and 5 (16.8%) tuberculous lymphadenitis.The diagnosis of abdominal TB was confirmed microbiologically in 5 (16%) and histo- pathologically in 19 patients (60.8%).The remaining nine patients (28.8%) had been diagnosed by a positive response to antituberculous treatment. CONCLUSION:Neither clinical signs,laboratory,radiological and endoscopic methods nor bacteriological and histopathological findings provide a gold standard by themselves in the diagnosis of abdominal TB.However,an algorithm of these diagnostic methods leads to considerably higher precision in the diagnosis of this insidious disease which primarily necessitate a clinical awareness of this serious health problem.展开更多

Abdominal ultrasonography revealed a hyperechoic mass measuring 10×10 cm in the left posterior segment of the liver.Because hepatocellular carcinoma could not be completely excluded,this mass was resected.The tumor consisted of sheets of uniform cells with clear cytoplasm, perinuclear eosinophilic granules and round nuclei.These histological findings were consistent with liver cell adenoma. Background hepatic tissue appeared normal.After resection of the tumor,serum PIVKA-Ⅱ fell to within the normal range. An area of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with a mid- trabecular pattern was immunohistochemically found,which was positive for PIVKA-Ⅱ.Sinusoidal endothelial cells were CD34-positive,containing scattered PIVKA-Ⅱ positive cells. This tumor was therefore finally diagnosed as liver cell adenoma with focal malignant transformation to HCC.展开更多
