AIM: To establish the hyperlipemic rat model by long-term gastric perfusion of intralipid and investigate the effects of hyperlipidemia on bone. METHODS: Eighteen SD rats were randomly divided into control group (C) and high-fat-diet group (HDF), with 9 rats per group. Rats of C group were treated orally with normal saline, and rats in HDF group were oral gavage of intralipid at dose of 5.0 mL/kg, once a day for 20 weeks. At the end of experiment, their serum levels of lipid were measured. Bone histomorphometric analysis of thighbone was performed in undecalcified sections, and the length and width of ulnar were measured. RESULTS: Compared with the C group, serum TC and low density lipoproteins (LDL) were increased (P

Objective: To explore the application value of real-time adenosine stress 3-dimensional echocardiography (3D-ASE) for diagnosing the patients with of coronary artery disease (CAD).
Methods: A total of 46 suspicious CAD patients were studied by 3D-ASE analysis. There were 26 male and 20 female patients from (38-73) years of age at the mean of (63.3 ± 7.2) years. Adenosine stress echocardiography was performed by infusing the agent at 140 ug/(kg?min) in 6 minutes. The changes of segmental ventricular wall motion, electrocardiogram (ECG), clinical symptoms, blood pressure and heart rate were recorded. Positive 3D-ASE result was deifned by the time of left ventricular segment minimum contraction volume gradually extending. Coronary angiograph (CAG) was conducted at 2 weeks after 3D-ASE, positive CAG ifnding was conifrmed by at least one of three main branches with the stenosis≥50%.
Results: There were 29/46 patients with positive CAG findings, 26 with positive 3D-ASE presentations and 8 with positive adenosines tress ECG. CAG showed that 48 coronary branches were positive and 90 were negative;3D-ASE indicated that 40 coronary branches were positive and 98 were negative. For 3D-ASE diagnosed coronary lesions, the overall sensitivity was 89.6%(26/29), speciifcity 76.5%(13/17), accuracy 84.8%(39/46). There were 36 branch lesions conifrmed by both CAG and 3D-ASE. For 3D-ASE determined coronary lesions, the sensitivity was 75%(36/48), speciifcity 95.6%(86/90), accuracy 88.4%(122/138). For 3D-ASE found single, double and three vessels diseases, the sensitivities were 60%(9/15), 88.9%(8/9) and 100%(5/5) respectively. The e occurrence rate of 3D-ASE side effect was 52.2%, there were usually slight symptoms without severe adverse reaction.
Conclusion: 3D-ASE has the high sensitivity and speciifcity in CAD diagnosis, it is an non-invasive examination with slight side effect, and therefore, has an important application value in clinical practice.

Objective To explore the identification of the hypoxia regions within the primary foci and imaging time selection in 18F-fluoromisonidazole (FMISO) imaging on patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).Methods From July 2013 to July 2014,44 NPC patients (33 males,11 females,age range:18-74(53.45± 12.88) years) underwent 18 F-FMISO PET/CT imaging,including 3 cases with twice imaging (totally 47 case times).Inaging data were acquired and reconstructed 2 and 4 h after the injection of 18 F-FMISO.1s F-FMISO PET/CT images were merged with MRI images obtained 1 week before to construct fusion images.The boundary of primary tumor was determined based on MRI.Visual analysis was performed and SUVmax of posterior cervical muscles,NPC primary foci was measured by 2 observers respectively.The uptake ratio of primary tumor to muscle (TMR) was calculated.The identify consistency of hypoxic region between two observers were evaluated by Kappa test and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC).The image contrast was evaluated by Wilcoxon paired rank sum test of TMR.Results PET images and MRI images of NPC primary foci were successfully fused.Positive non-NPC tissues were identified by MRI.The visual recognition of hypoxic regions of the two observers for 2 and 4 h imaging were highly consistent (Kappa =0.931 and 0.965,both P<0.001).There was a high degree of consistency between the SUVmax of posterior cervicalmuscles and that of primary tumors.ICCs of posterior cervical muscles in 2 and 4 h were 0.896 (95% CI:0.814-0.942) and 0.924 (95% CI:0.865-0.958),respectively.ICCs of primary tumors in 2 and 4 h were 0.991 (95% CI:0.985-0.995) and 0.998 (95% CI:0.996-0.999),respectively.TMRs (M(P25,P75))in 2 and 4 h were 1.560 (1.341,3.015) and 1.675 (1.387,3.001) respectively in 24 positive case times,and the difference was statistically significant (z=-2.557,P<0.05).Conclusions Using fusion images of 18F-FMISO PET and MRI,hypoxic tissues within NPC primary foci can be accurately identified.There is a high degree of consistency within the visual and quantitative analysis of two observers.The image contrast of 18F-FMISO PET at 4 h is superior to that at 2 h.

Although traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) shows its effectiveness undoubtedly in clinical practice, the deficiency in objective assessment methods is yet a bottleneck which has restricted its development of modernization and internationalization. On the basis of clinical experiences, the authors discussed the title cutting from current situation and tendency, and expanded gradually. It is concluded that by aiming directly at problems and referring to the principle and methods of evidence-based medicine (EBM), using rationally the design in clinical practice and combined with individualization and standardization should be a feasible way for TCM clinical therapeutic effect assessment.
