A retrospective analysis was made of surgical timing and curative effect of the surgical methods.RESULTS:The effectiveness rate of the methods was 74.12% for 1 310 patients after onemonth follow-up. In this series,the disability rate was 44.82% 3–6 months after the operation. Among the 1 310 patients,241(18.40%) patients died after the operation. If hematoma volume was >80 mL and the operation was performed within 3 hours,the mortality rate of group A was signifi cantly lower than that of groups B,C,D,and E(P<0.05). If hematoma volume was 50–80 mL and the operation was performed within 6–12 hours,the mortality rate of groups B and D was lower than that of groups A,C and E(P<0.05). If hematoma volume was 20–50 mL and the operation was performed within 6–24 hours,the mortality rate of group C was lower than that of groups A,B and D(P<0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Craniotomy through a bone f lap is suitable for patients with a large hematoma and hernia of the brain. Stereotactic drilling drainage is suggested for patients with hematoma volume less than 80 mL. The curative effect of HICH individualized treatment would be improved via the suitable selection of operation time and surgical method according to the position and volume of hemorrhage.展开更多

The paper studied the topic to find a scientific pruning model that could provide a guideline for the management in forest production. The plantation and the intercropping of poplar-crop were pruned in four different levels in Hebei and Shandong province. The levels were respectively light p1 (1/6 crown was pruned),medium p2 (2/6 crown was pruned),strong p3 (3/6 crown was pruned),heavy p4 (4/6 crown was pruned) and the control (unpruned). Heights and diameters at breast height(DBH) were measured. Diameter growth and cutting-area increment in one year from ten parsed trees were counted. The volume growth of trunk (below 9 m) was calculated. The results were:1) the difference of relative growth rate for different pruning treatment was not significant (P<0.05),which demonstrated the nutrition for height growth came from the branches and leaves of the top crown; 2) The difference of relative growth rate of DBH was significant(P<0.01). That is,the greater of pruning intensity,the smaller relative growth in the DBH. 3) The stem growth of parsed disk at different height was fluctuant among the different treatments. From stem base (0.0 m) to 9 m height of the trunk,the stem increase of the lower half reduced along with the increase of pruning intensity,while the growth of the upper half in pruning trees was bigger than that of non-pruning ones. 4) The difference of volume growth rate for different treatments was significant,all of the pruning treatments were bigger than the control. The medium p2 had the biggest growth,and the order was CK<p4<p1<p3<p2,which suggested that reasonable pruning can improve the growth of volume. However an excessive pruning reduced volume growth. 5展开更多

We compared the accuracy for quantifying the LV and the RV volumes in vitro between conventional two-dimensional echocardiography (2DE) and real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT3DE) Methods The volumes of 37 rubber-models (10 regularly shaped to simulate normal LV, 7 shaped to simulate LV with symmetric aneurysm, 8 shaped to simulate LV with asymmetric aneurysm, and 12 irregularly shaped to simulate normal RV) and 10 excised canine hearts were measured by RT3DE and 2DE On RT3DE 'full volume' imaging, the inner-surfaces of the rubber-models and canine LV and RV were outlined and the volumes were measured using 2-, 4-, 8- and 16-plane methods with the RT3DE analysis software On 2DE imaging, the volumes were measured by the Simpson method The LV and RV volumes measured by drained water were served as reference values, with which we compared RT3DE and 2DE data Results In rubber models mimicking normal LV and LV with symmetric aneurysms, RT3DE results were strongly correlated with reference values ( r =0 795-0 998) and there was a good correlation between 2DE estimates and reference values ( r =0 715-0 729) There were no significant differences between RT3DE estimates, 2DE results and reference values ( P >0 05) In rubber models mimicking the RV and LV with asymmetric aneurysm, RT3DE strongly correlated with reference values ( r =0 765-0 988), but 2DE weakly correlated with reference values ( r =0 518-0 592) There were no differences between RT3DE and reference values ( P >0 05), but a significant difference between 2DE and reference values occurred ( P <0 05) For excised canine hearts, there was a strong correlation between RT3DE and reference values ( r =0 728-0 914), while 2DE showed a less obvious correlation ( r =0 502-0 615) Again, there were no significant differenc展开更多
