Objective To compare three kinds of double-dosimetry algorithms used in estimating interventional radiology worker's effective dose.Methods TLDs were put in the Alderson Radiation Therapy Phantom (ARTP) dressed with lead apron,lead cap and lead collar.TLDs were put on the front left chest inside the lead apron and on the left outside lead collar,respectively.Radiation scattering models,intensity-modulated radiotherapy body model at one time and CT dose detection model at another time,were put on the operating table.The ARTP was set at the major operator's position exposed to the Xray,mimicking the real interventional radiology operation.Effective doses were estimated on the basis of organ absorbed doses.Effective doses were also obtained by the use of three kinds of double-dosimetry algorithms.The later three effective doses were compared with the first one.Results Two groups of effective doses were obtained,with each including four data.For intensity-modulated radiotherapy body model,effective doses were 0.138 mSv for phantom method,0.097 mSv for NCRP algorithm,0.161 mSv for Niklason's algorithm and 0.173 mSv for Boetticher's algorithm,respectively.For CT dose detection model,effective doses were 0.018,0.013,0.019 and 0.026 mSv,respectively.The result obtained by using the Niklason's algorithm was the closest to that by using phantom method.Conclusions Niklason's algorithm is more accurate and more practical in eatimating interventional radiology worker's effective dose.

Objective To explore quality of life (QOL) of spouses of spinal cord injury patients,as well as its influencing factors.Methods Sixty-eight spouses of spinal cord injury patients were recruited as an observation group.At the same time,another 70 healthy married people who had no serious chronic diseases in the family but were matched in gender,age,occupation and education were chosen as a control group.The QOL of all the subjects in both groups was investigated by way of a questionnaire survey.The results of both groups were compared and factors that influenced their QOL were explored.Results The QOL of spouses of spinal cord injury patients,including total QOL ( 3.22 ± 0.37 ),physiological function ( 60.57 ± 14.22 ),psychological state ( 60.09 ± 8.06 ),social relations (63.37 ± 8.10 ) and the living environment (66.86 ± 11.26 ) were significantly lower than in the control group (4.62 ± 0.75 ; 82.48 ± 10.92 ; 86.02 ± 8.75 ; 85.94 ± 10.13 and 83.23 ± 9.54,respectively).The QOL of spouses of spinal cord injury patients was closely related to the patient's injury type,injury position,the treatment protocol,as well as their own gender,vocation and education.Conclusion The QOL of spouses of spinal cord injury patients is significantly lower than that of normal people,and closely related with the patients' injury type,injury position and treatment,as well as their own gender,vocation and education.

Emodin is one of the main active ingredient of Rheum palmatum, and has anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-viral and other effects. In recent years, it arouse concern since it has a significant anti-tumor effect with low toxicity. In this paper we mainly report the anti-cancer effects of emodin according to the studies of the past five years, including four parts such as inhibit tumor growth, inhibit migration and invasion, enhance the efficacy of combination therapy, increase chemosensitivity and attenuated side effects. We hope that our work may provide a reference for further study.

Objective To explore the association between the genetic polymorphism of hypoxia inducible factor 1 α (HIF-1α) G1790A and the radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods A total of 189 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated with radical radiotherapy were followed-up for 3 years.The patients were divided into cured group with 135 cases and recurrence group with 54 cases by clinical follow-up results.PCR-RFLP was used to determine the mononucleotide genotypes of HIF-1α G1790A.Results The observed genotype frequencies of HIF-1α gene 1790 (G→A) for GG, GA and AA were 70.04% , 20.74% , 2.22% in cured group and 59.26% , 38.89% , 1.85% in recurrence group, respectively.The allele frequencies for G and A were 87.4% , 13.9% in cured groups and 78.7% ,21.3% in recurrence group, respectively, without significant difference in distribution of allele frequencies between the two groups(x2 =6.919, P =0.077).Conclusions The genetic polymorphisms of HIF-1α G1790A might be related with the radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Objective To discuss the clinical significance of anomalous origination of right gastric artery in interventional treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The dynamic enhanced CT scanning of the liver with a 64-slice spiral CT unit was performed in 72 HCC patients.In arterial phase,maximum intensity projection(MIP) and volume reconstruction technique(VRT) were used to observe the origin of the right gastric artery and its relationship with the hepatic artery.The findings were compared with the angiographic results.Results Of the total 72 cases,the anomalous origin of the right gastric artery was found in 43(59.8%).The anomalous origins of the right gastric artery included proper hepatic artery(n=19),left hepatic artery(n=17),gastroduodenal artery(n=4),right hepatic artery(n=2) and common hepatic artery(n=1).The results obtained from three-dimensional reconstruction were in good accordance with angiographic findings.Conclusion The anomalously originated right gastric artery most commonly originates from the left hepatic artery.Three-dimensional reconstruction obtained from the 64-slice spiral CT scans can provide the clear and reliable images of the right gastric artery,which is very helpful for the interventional procedure.

Objective To evalute Qiliqiangxin capsule for improving cardiac function and identifiy Qiliqiangxin capsule for directing cytoprotective effects against apoptosis of cardiomyocytes. Methods Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were tested as subjects and the model rats were built by anterior descending coronary deligation, then the survival rats were devided into 6 groups randomly:sham-operated group(sham,n=8),fed with normal saline of same volume instead;control group(control,n=7),fed with normal saline of same volume instead;Qiliqiangxin great dosage group(great,n=9),Qiliqiangxin 1.2g/(kg?d) treatment;Qiliqiangxin medium dosage group(medium,n=9),Qiliqiangxin 0.6g/(kg?d) treatment;Qiliqiangxin small dosage group(small,n=8 rats),Qiliqiangxin 0.3g/(kg?d) treatment;the captopril group(captopril,n=9),captopril 25mg/(kg?d) treatment.24 hours later,rats in sham operated group and model group were given normal saline,rats in treating group were given Qiliqiangxin,rats in the contrasting group were given captopril.After being treated for 4 weeks, all rats′ heart function was measruated by right flank arteria carotis communis arterial cannula.The left ventricle mass index was calculated and the expression of protein caspase-3 was tested by immunohistochemical method and Westernblot. Results Compared with control group, Qiliqiangxin capsule could reduce effectively BW,HMI,LVMI,increase LVEDP and LVSP,+dp/dtmax and -dp/dtmax.Immunohistochemical analysis and Westernblot analysis showed that adminstration of Qiliqiangxin significantly inhibited caspase-3 expressions in myocardial cells in a dose-dependent manner.Conclusion Qiliqiangxin significantly improved the CHF rat′s cardiac function and reduced the left ventricle mass index and heart mass index 4 weeks after being treated with relative high dose Qiliqiangxin. It might be partially attributed to the suppression of caspase-3 expressions.
