Objective To use the flow cytometry to detect the platelet vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein(VASP)phospho-rylation level and to evaluate the clopidogrel curative effect after PCI.Methods 17 cases in the control group without any drug in-tervention and 26 cases of acute coronary syndrome(ACS)after PCI operation with clopidogrel were selected.Platelet VASP phos-phorylation levels at being selecting and on 7 d after anti-platelet therapy were detected by the flow cytometry and the platelet reac-tivity index (PRI)was calculated.Results The PRI after anti-platelet therapy in the ACS group was decreased significantly,the difference between before treatment and after treatment had statistical significance (P <0.05 ).Conclusion The platelet VASP phosphorylation level detected by the flow cytometry can specifically evaluate the effect of clopidogrel.

Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors(pNETs)have a low prevalence,and may be func-tional as secreting biologically active substance or nonfunctional. With the increased understanding of this disease,new technologies are being developed for diagnosis and treatment. However,surgical excision re-mains the primary therapy for localized tumors and the cure rate is not ideal yet. In choosing the appropri-ate therapy for locally advanced/ metastatic pNETs,medical management strategy should be made in a multidisciplinary context. In addition to chemotherapy,there have been significant advances in targeted mo-lecular therapy.

A questionnaire and telephone survey was conducted on 246 patients with chronic liver diseases in the Outpatient Clinic from August 2010 to May 2011.The distribution of diseases and the causes of losing follow-up were analyzed. Most subjects in this survey (182/246,74.0％ ) were patients with chronic viral hepatitis( HBV or HCV)and cirrhosis; and their follow-up status was better than others (X2 =12.382,P ＜ 0.05). There were no differences in gender( X2 =10.137,P ＞ 0.05),but significant differences in age ( X2 =31.783,P ＜ 0.05 ) and educational levels ( X2 =32.803,P ＜ 0.05 ) between patients with chronic viral hepatitis and cirrhosis and patients with other liver diseases.The main causes of losing follow-up were neglect of disease by patients (38.3％) and lack of good communication between doctors and patients ( 18.3％ ).It is important to reinforce the understanding and awareness of chronic liver diseases for patients.

Objective To compare the image quality of diffusion-weighted MR neurography (DW-MRN) of the tibial nerve and the common peroneal nerve prospectively using different motion probing gradients (MPGs).Methods A total of 21 healthy volunteers underwent DW-MRN at the knee (unilateral imaging) on a 3.0 T magnetic resonance system with unidirectional MPGs.The protocol included anteriorposterior unidirectional,right-left unidirectional,three-directional and six-directional MPGs.The apparent SNR and CNR of tibial nerve and common peroneal nerve were calculated.Three-dimensional MIP images of the nerves were evaluated blindly by two radiologists using a four-point grading scale on basis of entirety depiction and the signal intensity.Significance was determined by using Friedman and paired Wilcoxon tests.Results The SNR of tibial nerves on DW-MRN with anterior-posterior,right-left,three directional and six directional MPGs were 4.17 (2.70-5.65),4.35 (0.47-4.69),3.46 (2.27-4.62) and 3.30 (2.06-4.43),respectively.CNR were 0.61 (0.46-0.70),0.63 (0.36-0.73),0.55 (0.39-0.64) and 0.53(0.35-0.63),respectively.The scores of tibial nerve image quality were 4.0 (2.0-4.0),4.0 (3.0-4.0),2.5 (2.0-3.5),2.0 (1.0-2.5),respectively.Interobserver agreement was good and the Kappa value was 0.69 (P ＜ 0.05).The SNR of the common peroneal nerves on DW-MRN with anteriorposterior,right-left,three directional and six directional MPGs were 3.05 (2.30-4.20),3.05 (2.26-4.34),2.72 (1.84-13.80) and 2.68 (1.87-3.67),respectively.CNR were 0.51 (0.39-0.62),0.51 (0.39-0.63),0.46(0.30-0.86) and 0.46(0.30-0.57),respectively.The scores of the common peroneal nerve image quality were 3.5 (2.0-4.0),4.0 (2.0-4.0),2.0 (1.0-3.0) and 2.0 (1.0-2.5),respectively.Interobserver agreement was good and the Kappa value was 0.70(P ＜0.05).For SNR,CNR and nerve image quality of the tibial nerves and the common peroneal nerves,there were significant differences among different MPGs (x2 =215.01,215.01,60.49 and 182.82,182.82,60.22,respectively,P ＜ 0.05).SNR,CNR and nerve image quality of the tibial nerves and the common peroneal nerves on DW-MRN with unidirectional MPGs were better than those with three-directional and sixdirectional MPGs (Z =-6.90-4.03,P ＜ 0.05).The SNR and CNR of the tibial nerves on DW-MRN with right-left direction were better than those with anterior-posterior unidirectional MPGs (Z =-3.53,-3.41,P ＜ 0.05),but there was no significant difference of image quality between right-left and anteriorposterior directional MPGs (Z =-0.58,P ＞ 0.05).DW-MRN of the tibial nerves with three-directional MPGs was better than that with six-directional MPGs (Z =-3.00,-2.80,-3.92,P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences between right-left and anterior-posterior unidirectional MPGs,or between three-directional and six-directional MPGs of common peroneal nerves (Z =-1.94--0.31,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions DW-MRN has capability to provide three-dimensional visualization of the tibial and common peroneal nerves,and the image quality with unidirectional MPGs is better than that with three or six directional MPGs.
