Objective To label rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) with superparamagnetic iron oxide in vitro, and to monitor the survivorship and location of the labeled BMSCs in rat models of traumatic brain injury (TBI) with high field MR. Methods BMSCs were cultivated in vitro, and were labeled with SPIO. TBI models were built in the left hemisphere of the rats with Feeney's method. Then SPIO-labeled BMSCs were grafted stereotactically into the region nearby the contusion site 24 h later. The rats underwent MR examination 1 day, 3 days, 1 week and 3 weeks after implantation. Results Brown iron particles could be demonstrated in the SPIO-labeled BMSCs under inverted phase contrast microscope. Numerous intracytoplastic iron particles were stained with Prussian blue, and diffused distribution of iron particles could be seen in the intracytoplasm under electron microscope. At implanted sites low signal intensity could be observed on every sequence of MR examination, among which T2~*WI and SWI were better than other sequences, and SWI was the best. Conclusion MR is sensitive of tracking the survivorship and location of the labeled BMSCs, and SWI is the most sensitive sequence to detect the labeled cells.

Objective To explore the difference of cognitive function and psychosocial function between remitted bipolar disorder(BPD) and remitted schizophrenia.Methods 8 neuropsychological tests (17 items)which evaluate attention,verbal learning and memory,visual memery and executive function were given to 30 remitted BPD,32 remitted schizophrenia and 34 normal controls.The differences of cognitive functions between the three groups were compared using multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA).Psychosocial functions of remitted BPD and remitted schizophrenia were both evaluated by Global Assessment Function (GAF),and the difference of Psychosocial functions between the two groups was also tested by MANOVA.Results1.Remitted schizophrenia showed dysfunction in neuropsychological tests except Stroop C and digit span subtest-forward compared with controis.but Remitted BPD only showed dysfunction in 9 neuropsychological items compared with controls.There was no significantly differences on WCST,digit span subtest-backward,and TMT-B between remitted BPD and remitted schizophrenia,the degree of impairment of the two groups was same.But scores from logical memory sub-test and Stroop CW of remitted schizophrenia were significantly lower than that of remitted BPD( ( 8.13 ± 3.35),( 12.11 ±3.72),(6.00 ±3.09),(9.78 ±3.60);(48.61±15.73),(69.33 ±21.04),P＜0.05).There was significant difference on scores of GAF between remitted BPD and remitted schizophrenia.Conclusion There are some overlap in cognitive impairment in remitted BPD and remitted schizophrenia,but in remitted schizophrenia the cognitive profile is characterized by generalized and severer pattern of deficits.The psychosocial function of remitted BPD is better than that of remitted schizophrenia.

Objective To observe the value of ultrasonography, MR and MSCT in diagnosing intravitreous autologous eyelashes. Methods Thirty-two New Zealand rabbits were averagely divided into 4 groups (A, B, C and D) randomly, and 1, 5, 10 eyelashes were implanted into vitreous body of rabbits respectively in group A, B, and C, whereas rabbits in group D (the control group) were only exposed to sham operation without implanting any eyelashes. After one week, all rabbits underwent ultrasound, MR and MSCT examination, then the specimens of vitreous bodies were obtained and observed pathologically. Results All the implanted intravitreous eyelashes were displayed with ultrasound. Intravitreous eyelashes in group A were not detected with MRI, whereas in 3 rabbits of group B and all of group C were displayed on T2WI, T2*WI and SWI sequences. MSCT detected intravitreous eyelashes in only 6 experimental animals. Conclusion Ultrasonography should be considered as the first choice for diagnosis of intravitreous autologous eyelashes. Different sequences of MRI have various advantages in diagnosing intravitreous autologous eyelashes, whereas the diagnostic value of MSCT is limited.

mended to detect possible leakage of fat within central spinal canal.

Objective To evaluate the value of MR imaging in diagnosing autologous lashes within rabbit vitreous body.Methods 5 lashes were placed into the right vitreous bodys in 24 experimental animals.All of the experimental animals underwent MRI examination with and without overlying moist swab and 2% lidocaine retrobulbar anesthesia after operations 2 hours later.Results The intravitreous lashes could be demonstrated on T_2WI in 6 animals and 17 animals without and with overlying moist swab and 2% lidocaine retrobulbar anesthesia,respectively.Conclusion The methods of artifacts-suprresing is useful for diagnosing intravitreous lases foreign body within rabbits at MR imaging examination.

OBJECTIVE To investigate drug resistant genes associated with beta-lactamases,aminoglycosides and sulfonamides in Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from burned patients.METHODS Common drug resistant genes associated with beta-lactamases,aminoglycosides and sulfonamides of 20 strains of P.aeruginosa isolated from burned patients were detected by PCR.RESULTS The positive rates of genes of TEM,aac(6′)-Ⅰb,sul1 and ant(3″)-Ⅰwere 85%,85%,90% and 10%,respectively and genes of CARB and aac(6′)-Ⅱ were both positive(100%).Genes of oprD2 were all absent and genes of SHV,GES,IMP,VIM,DHA and armA were all negative.Furthermore,drug resistant genes of strains isolated from different sites of one patient on different time could be different.CONCLUSIONS Drug resistant genes of CARB and aac(6′)-Ⅱprevail in P.aeruginosa isolated from burned patients.Detections of drug resistant genes in P.aeruginosa isolated,especially continuously isolated from burned patients are essential.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribation of the AmpC enzyme in Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from burned patients. METHODS Susceptibility tests were used to detect antibiotic resistance to 20 kinds of antimicrobial drugs in 20 strains of A. baumannii isolated from burned patients, AmpC enzyme genes were detected by PCR and partial positive products were chosen to sequence. RESULTS Drug resistances to ?-lactam antibiotics in 20 strains of A. baumannii isolated from burned patients had exceeded 85% except levofloxacin or cefoperazone/sulbactam. Of ADC genes 95% were positive, but all DHA genes were negative. Through sequence and Blast analysis, partial ADC positive products were identical with that of EF546445. CONCLUSIONS The multidrug resistance of A. baumannii isolated from burned patients to ?-lactam antibiotics is serious. AmpC enzyme mediated by chromosome, ADC, prevails in A. baumannii isolated from burned patients.
