Objective To determine the utility of musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging to support physical findings in different stages of recovery and in recommending treatment regimens.Methods Forty-three hemiplegic stroke survivors with shoulder pain were enrolled.Physical examinations were performed 3 and 6 months after the stroke using a visual analogue scale (VAS),a modified Ashworth scale,measurements of passive range of motion and Brunnstrom staging.This was coupled with sonography of the long head of the biceps,the subscapularis tendon,the supraspinatus tendon,the infraspinatus tendon,the acromioclavicular joint and the subacromial-subdeltoid bursa.Results Three months after the stroke the average VAS score correlated negatively with the average Brunnstrom stage of the shoulders (r=-0.39,P≤0.01),with the range of passive abduction (r=-0.56,P≤ 0.01),the range of passive external rotation (r=-0.36,P≤ 0.02),and the range of passive flexion (r=-0.37,P≤ 0.02).It was positively correlated with abnormal sonographic findings of the long head tendon of the biceps (r=0.32,P≤ 0.04),the subscapularis tendons (r=0.31,P≤0.04) and the supraspinatus tendons (r=0.53,P≤0.01).However,3 months later the VAS results were negatively correlated with Brunnstrom stage (r=-0.45,P ≤ 0.01),range of passive shoulder abduction (r=-0.60,P≤0.01),range of passive external rotation (r=-0.41,P≤0.01),and passive range of flexion (r=-0.52,P≤ 0.01),but positively correlated with spasticity (r=0.34,P≤ 0.03),biceps tendinopathy (r=0.45,P≤0.01),subscapularis tendinopathy (r=0.33,P≤ 0.03) and supraspinatus tendinopathy (r=0.56,P≤ 0.01).Rotator cuff injury was significantly more severe 6 months after stroke than at 3 months.The incidence of pain in the hemiplegic shoulder and abnormal sonographic findings of the biceps tendon and subscapularis tendon were significantly higher at 6 months than at 3 months after the stroke.Supraspinatus tendon problems were notable both at 3 and 6 months.Conclusions Pain in a hemiplegic shoulder is positively correlated with abnormal sonographic findings but negatively correlated with Brunnstrom stages and passive range of motion 3 and 6 months after stroke.Six months after stroke,pain is positively correlated with muscle tone.The tendon at the long head of the biceps and the rotator cuff are vulnerable to injury,especially at 6 months after stroke.

Objective To evaluate the heterozygous ambiguity resolution primers (HARPs) method in resolving ambiguous genotyping results of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes in Chinese Hart population, and choose some appropriate HARPs primers. Methods HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-DRB1 genes of 416 southern Chinese Han individuals were genotyped by sequence-based-typing(SBT) method and then the ambiguous genotyping samples were sequenced again by HARPs primers provided by American Atria company. Results The percentage of ambiguous genotyping samples resolved by HARPs for HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-DRBI locus was 86.3% (132/153), 73.9% (130/176) and 38.1% (85/223) respectively. Among them, 48.5% (64/132)HLA-A, 80.0% (104/130)HLA-B and all HLA-DRB1(85/85)samples only need one primer, 47.7 % (63/132)HLA-A and 20.0% (26/130)HLA-B samples need two primers. Three to six different HARPs primers can resolve more than 90% ambiguities. Conclusion HARPs is a convenient method and could be a routine method to resolve ambiguities for HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-DRB1 genes genotyped by SBT in Chinese Han population.

Objective To investigate the expressions of erythropoietin(EPO)and its receptor(EPO-R)in the spinal cord after acute traumatic injury in adult rats.Methods Sixty-nine Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups:normal control group(n=5),spinal cord injury group(n=32),and sham operation group(n= 32).The injury group and sham operation group were further randomly divided into eight subgroups respectively (n=4)(1h,6h,12h,24h,3d,7d,14d,28 dafter operation).The expressions of EPO and EPO-R at different time points were detected by RT-PCR,Western blot and immunohistochemical staining.Results EPO was nut detected at any time point in the normal control grnup,spinal cord injury group or sham operation group.The EPO-R expression was not found in the normal control group or sham operation group.RT-PCR and Western blot analyses revealed EPO-R mRNA and protein expressions in the injury group as early as 6 h after injury.The EPO-R mRNA and protein expressions sharply increased at 12 h,peaked at 24 h to 7 d,and gradually declined after 7 d. They were still higher than those in the control rats 28 d after injury.The EPO-R immunoreactivity was chiefly found in neurons,oligodendrocytes,vascular endothelial and ependymal cells.Conclusion The EPO-R expression can be up-regulated obviously in the injured spinal cord,which provides a molecular basis for the nerooprotection of exogenous EPO.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of mannan-binding lectin (MBL) on the functions of human polymorphonuclear cells (PMNs).

METHODSELISA and Dot blot were performed to examine the binding between MBL and the microorganisms. Flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy were employed to analyze the phagocytosis of FITC-labeled microorganisms by the PMNs. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression levels of IL-1β, TNF-α and CD11b mRNA in the PMNs, and ELISA used to detect the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in the supernatants of PMN culture. Nitro-blue tetrazolium reduction assay was used to estimate the levels of superoxide production.

RESULTSMBL bound to the microorganisms in a dose-dependent manner. MBL had no significant effect on phagocytosis of C. albicans and E.coli by the PMNs in the absence of human serum, but in presence of mixed MBL-deficient human sera, MBL promoted the phagocytosis of C. albicans, which could be blocked by mannan. Mannan treatment increased the expressions of IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6 and CD11b and enhanced superoxide production in the PMNs.

CONCLUSIONMBL can promote phagocytosis of microorganisms by PMNs and increase the expressions of proinflammatory cytokines from PMNs in a complement lectin pathway-dependent manner.

Objective: To investigate the value of zTE ASL MRA in the follow-up of interventional treatment of intracranial aneurysm at 1.5 T, using DSA as gold standard. Methods: Patients with intracranial aneurysms who underwent coil embolization with or without stent were enrolled in this study. Both TOF MRA and zTE ASL MRA were performed on a 1.5T whole body scanner (MR360, GE, USA) equipped with an 8 channel head coil, and DSA was performed within one week of the MR examinations. Aneurysmal remnant and intra-stent opacity were analyzed. SE, PE, PPV, NPV of two MRA modalities in aneurysm recanalization detection were calculated. Kappa coefficient was used to determine the inter-reader and intra-reader reproducibility. Paired t test was used to test the visibility of in-stent lumen on two kinds of MRA. Results: A total of 24 patients (27 aneurysms) were included in this study, 23 aneurysms were treated with stent assisted embolization, four coil embolization. Thirteen cases of aneurysm remnant were detected by DSA, 15 by zTE ASL and 11 by TOF MRA. zTE ASL MRA had a relatively higher SE (100%) and NPV(100%) as compared with TOF MRA. The Kappa value in identification of aneurysm remnant was 0.85 between zTE MRA and DSA and 0.70 between TOF MRA and DSA, respectively. The inter-reader reproducibility was good (Kappa 0.70), while the intra-reader reproducibility was excellent(Kappa 0.85). There was statistical significance in the scoring results of the in-stent lumen visibility. Conclusion zTE ASL MRA proved to be a better imaging modality as compared to TOF MRA to evaluate the endovascular treatment effectiveness of intracranial aneurysms, especially for assessing the aneurysmal recurrence and in-stent lumen visibility.
