Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of MRI in the diagnosis ofbone Eosinophilic GranulomaI. Methods:The clinical and imaging materials of 13 patients with eosinophilic granuloma of bone proved by histopathology were analyzed retrospectively.The imaging examination included plain films(n=13),CT(n=12),and MRI(n=13).Results:MR identified all lesions;With one exception,all lesions were hypointense on T1-Weighted images and hyperintense on T2-Weighted images;The lesions and associated soft tissue abnormalities were very conspicuous on short T1 inversion sequences and T1-Weighed post-contrast images;Follow-up MRI studies in two patients after chemotherapy showed decreased size and enhancement of lesions compared with the baseline studies.Three lesions were not identified on plain films.MRI showed greater abnormality than plain radiographs did.CT could identify all lesions also,and the main imaging findings included bone destruction,adjacent bone cortex involvement,periosteal reaction and sof t tissue mass or swelling. Conclusion:MRI can clearly demonstrate the extent of bone involved, the change of soft tissue and sequestrum.It can also acquire the anatomic and pathologicd details of bone and and soft tissue.But X-ray film and CT may improve the diagnostic and differential diagnostic accuracy.

Objective To understand the control of medical waste disposal in Changsha. Methods The kinds, output, collection and disposal of medical wastes were investigated in three general hospitals, one tumor hospital and one paediatric hospital in Changsha. Results The main components of medical wastes were glass, plastic and cotton, which took 55%, 20% and 12% of the total output respectively. The daily outputs of medical wastes were 0.48?0.63 and 0.43 kg per bed in three general hospitals, 0.58 and 0.71 kg per bed in paediatric hospital and tumor hospital respectively. Based on these data, the daily output of medical wastes in Changsha was estimated about 9.390 t. The recovery rate of medical wastes mainly including glass and plastic was 49.32%. The disposal rate of medical wastes only was 1.34%. The rest of medical wastes of 49.34% were mixed into domestic wastes or landfilled. Conclusion The management of medical wastes wasn't perfect in Changsha, which presented potential environmental pollution.

The continuous artery-vein infusion method was used for the study of the origin, number, course, anastomosis, point of penetration and distribution of external arteries on 60 sides and internal arteries on 18 sides of the brain stem (mesencepha- lon and medulla oblongata) in Chinese under magnifiers (10-16?). The arteries of the brain stem can be divided into four groups: the anteromedial, anterolateral, lateral and posterior arteries. Each group originates from several different arteries. The spot where external arteries penetrate into the substance of brain stem is called the point of penetration, several points of penetration concentrating together make the dense penetrating area. The dense penetrating areas on mesencephalon are the interpeduncular fossa and sulcus lateralis and those on the medulla oblongata are the fissurae mediana anterior and sulcus posterior to olive. There are fine arterial networks in the pia mater of the brain stem. In the mesencephalon and the closed portion of the medulla oblongata, the internal arteries traverse centripetally while in the open portion of the medulla oblongata, they course towards the floor of the fourth ventricle. The calibre of arteries in each group decreases anteroposteriorly. A comparatively constant blood supply area is available to each group.

Pdx-1, an important transcription factor highlighting in the early pancreatic development, islet functions and pancreatic disorders, needs to be more investigated in zebrafish, and siRNA is still seldom applied in zebrafish embryo-related research. Our aim was to explore the role of pdx-1 in pancreatic development of zebrafish embryos by using siRNA approach. Microinjection, reverse transcriptase-PCR (RT-PCR), in situ hybridization and immunofluorescent staining were used in this research, and the morphology of the islet in normal zebrafish embryos, and in those treated with the siRNA specific to pdx-1 (siPDX-1) or siGFP was observed and compared. The expression of pdx-1 was detected in the stages of 1-cell, 2-cell, 4-cell, 8-cell, 16-cell, 16-hour by RT-PCT. The in situ hybridization and immunofluorescent staining results showed that siPDX-1 disturbed the formation of the islet in zebrafish embryos. Pdx-1 played multiple roles in maintaining the phenotype of the islet during embryogenesis in zebrafish.

Objective To study the in-vitro antibacterial activity of Niaoluqing Decoction on Ureaplasma Urealyticum (Uu) . Methods Sixty-three clinical strains of Uu were identified to determine their serology and antibiotic susceptibilities by the metabolic inhibition test(MIT). These strains were subcultured for 3 generations and then cultured with Niaoluqing Decoction with a series of concentrations from 250 mg/mL to 0.48 mg/mL. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined when the color of culture medium did not change from yellow to red in 72 h.Results For 63 clinical strains of Uu, the range of MIC of Niaoluqing Decoction was from 0.48 mg/mL to 15.63 mg/mL,MIC50≤1.95 mg/mL,MIC90≤3.91 mg/mL. Clinical strains of Uu had a higher sensitive to Niaoluqing Decoction than to tetracycline(?2=18.38,P 0.05).Clinical strains of Uu including all of its serotypes had a higher antibiotic susceptibility to Niaoluqing Decoction (MIC≤3.91 mg/mL) except for serotype 11, 1, 2 in this experiment contains (MIC≥7.81 mg/mL). Conclusion Niaoluqing Decoction showed a significant in-vitro antibacterial activity on clinical Uu strains with different serotypes.

Objective To investigate the alteration of the default-mode network (DMN) in the patients with minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) using resting functional MRI, and to explore its underlying clinical significance. Methods Fourteen MHE patients and 14 age-matched normal controls underwent standard resting state functional MRI scan. The components representing DMN were picked out after separation of independent component analysis. One and two sample t-tests were used to observe the changes of DMN in the patients in contrast to the controls. Results Typically spatial distributions of the DMN were found in both MHE patients and controls. Comparison results revealed that there was significantly reduced functional connectivity in the left posterior cingulate cortex, bilateral anterior cingulate cortex, bilateral medial prefrontal cortex, left parahippocampal cortex in MHE patients, while functional connectivity increased in the right precuneus. Conclusion Resting state functional MRI can be used to observe DMN changes in MHE patients. In MHE patients, there is reduced DMN activation in the widespread regions, while the activation of right precuneus increases.

Objective To observe the influence of Huiyang Shengji Ointment and its modified formulae on interleukin-1 (IL-1α) and thromboxane B2 (TXB2) in diabetic rats with chronic skin ulcers, and explore the mechanism for promoting the healing of ulcer.Methods Six out of 160 rats were randomly selected as a blank group, without any further processing. The remaining rats were made diabetic model and randomly divided into five groups after 2 weeks:1 d, 3 d, 5 d, 7 d and 14 d groups. Then, these groups were further divided into normal group (Vaseline ointments), model group (Vaseline ointments), Huiyang Shengji Ointment group (whole formula Ointment), Wenyang Yiqi group (Yiqi group, modified Wenyang Yiqi formula ointments) and Huoxue Shengji group (Huoxue group, modified Huoxue Shengji formula ointments). Normal group and model group were given Vaseline ointments;whole formula group, Yiqi group and Huoxue group were given corresponding ointment. Normal group used the method of skin excision, while other groups used STZ injection-hydrocortisone interference-skin excision-foreign body embedded preparation of composite factors for chronic skin ulcer model. After the appropriate treatment period, the rats were executed and tested for the contents of IL-1α and TXB2 in serum by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of five time points.Results In treatment 3 d, the contents of IL-1α in Yiqi group were significantly higher than the blank group, model group, whole formula group and Huoxue group (P<0.05). In treatment 5 d, the contents of IL-1α in whole formula group were significantly higher than the blank group and model group (P<0.05). In treatment 7 d, the contents of IL-1α in each treatment group were significantly higher than blank group and model group (P<0.05), and the whole formula group was higher than the Yiqi group and Huoxue group. In treatment 14 d, the contents of IL-1α in model group and Huoxue group were lower than the blank group (P<0.05). In treatment 3 d, the contents of TXB2 in normal group and the whole formula group were higher than the blank group (P<0.05). In treatment 5 d, the contents of TXB2 in whole formula group were higher than the blank group and the normal group (P<0.05). In treatment 7 d, the contents of TXB2 in Yiqi group were higher than the blank, the model, the whole formula and Huoxue groups (P<0.05). In treatment 14 d, the contents of TXB2 in Huoxue group were higher than the blank and model group (P<0.05), and the contents of TXB2 in the blank group and normal group was lower than those treatment groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Huiyang Shengji Ointment and its modified formulae could promote inflammation, stimulate secretion of inflammatory cytokines, while Yiqi Wenyang ointments played a more active role in promoting inflammation of the early phase of wound surface.
