1.Systemic inflammatory response syndrome and compensatory anti-inflammatory response syndrome in the acute pancreatitis
International Journal of Surgery 2008;35(9):627-630
Acute pancreatitis is a common serious disease, and considered to be inflammatory disturbance course. The early storm of proinflammatory cytokine releasing evokes systemic inflammatorome response syndrome (SIRS) ,and leads to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome(MOPS). At the late phase, because massive of antiin-flammatory cytokines initiate compensatory anti-inflammatory response syndrome ( CARS), the body immune func-tions suffer suppressed and result in infection or toxemia. So reestablishing baulance of SIRS/CARS has considera-ble clinical meaning to the AP patient morbidity. In this article, we will overview the relevant factors and mecha-nisms of the SIRS/CARS induced by AP.

Journal of Practical Radiology 2001;0(08):-
Objective To study the MR imaging features of intracranial subependymomas and to improve the knowledge more about it. Methods The imaging features of intracranial subependymomas in 17 cases proved pathologically were retrospectively analyzed, among which 11 cases were male and 6 cases were female, 16 cases had MR images and 1 case only had CT images.Results MR appearances of intracranial subependymomas were as follows :16 cases were all hyperintense relative to the normal grey matter on T2-weighted images and hypointense or isointense on T1-weighted images. 12 cases showed no enhancement or minimal enhancement after Gd-DTPA administration . 9 of 16 cases were located in lateral ventricle, 2 were in septum pellucidum, and the rest 5 were in fourth ventricle ,third ventricle ,prepontine cistern, right CPA and chiasmatic cistern respectively. In one case , CT showed isodensity and was enhanced in CE-CT,the lesion was situated in fourth ventricle. In all 17 cases, 11 were accompanied with microcystic structures. Conclusion Intracranial subependymomas are best delineated by MR imaging. The diagnosis of intracranial subependymomas should be considered when above findings are confronted.

Objective We aimed to study the optimal method for local compression following removal of needle after intravenous injection and protect patients' vein to the highest degree. Methods 620 patients were divided into the observation group and the control group with 310 cases in each group randomly. Comparison study was carried out by adopting interchange compression (routine method) and noninterchange compression (direct pressing with hypothenar). Results The incidence of pain, bleeding and subcutaneous stasis after removal of needle in the observation group was lower than those in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusions Local compression following removal of needle with hypothenar was superior to routine compression method and it was worth applying in clinics widely.

Objective To establish a real-time quantitative PCR assay for the identification of Campylobacter jejuni in fecal samples.Methods Specific primers of the PCR were designed according to the conserved sequences of Campylobacterjeju-ni,and the real-time quantitative PCR assay was established.150 cases of fecal samples were tested by both culture and PCR methods.With the culture testing results as the reference standard,the sensitivity,specificity,accuracy and repetition of the real-time quantitative PCR were validated.Kappa test was used to estimate the difference between the two detection meth-ods.Results The standard carve of the real-time quantitative PCR assay fitted the equationY=-3.51Log(X)+37.09 (R2=0.996)well.The sensitivity,specificity,and accuracy of the established method were 92.4%,95.8% and 94%,respective-ly.The theoretical detection limit of the PCR method was 102 CFU/ml,and its reproducibility was good (CV<5%).Statisti-cal analysis demonstrated that the results of the two methods were consistent,and the consistent strength was very strong (Kappa=0.88,P<0.05).Conclusion The established real-time PCR method can assay the Campylobacterjejuni in human fecal samples rapidly and accurately.

Objective To establish a real-time fluorescence PCR method to detect the drug resistance genes of pathogenic Campylobacter jejunum in human stool samples,and investigate the relationship between quinoloneantibiotic resistance and the related genes in Campylobacter jejuni .Methods According to the gyrA and gyrB gene sequences that related with the fluoroquinolone resistance in Campylobacter jejuni ,the primers of the PCR method was designed and synthesized.A rapid real-time fluorescence PCR method to detect the drug resistance genes in Campylobacter jejuni samples was established,and the optimum reaction system and conditions were screened through an optimized approach.The developed method was com-pared with the classical drug susceptibility assay.Results It was found in the compared results that,there were 8 inconsis-tent strains of Campylobacter jejuni ,2 of the 8 strains were drug sensitive but contented the drug resistance gene,while 6 strains were drug resistant but had no drug resistant gene.Conclusion The established method can be applied to detect the drug resistance relative genes of gyrA and gyrB in Campylobacter jejuni .There was some correlation between the drug re-sistance representation and its genotype,but this point requires further studies.

Considerable advances have been made in the understanding of the cellular processes that result in contraction and relaxation of detrusor smooth muscle recently,particularly in the role and modulation of calcium.Several changes in these cellular mechanisms that impair normal function have been observed in detrusor muscle from patients with unstable bladders.Whether these changes represent primary causes of bladder dysfunction or whether they are secondary to bladder dysfunction remains to be determined.Nevertheless,the identification of specific cellular lesions in bladder dysfunction presents a novel approach to identification of drug targets and potential treatment modalities.

Objective To investigate the evolution of diffusion indices in the pyramidal tract with Wallerian degeneration(WD)due to cerebral infarction using diffusion tensor imaging(DTI),and to study the relationship between early changes of diffusion indices and motor deficit.Methods Fifteen patients (13 males and 2 females)with acute cerebral infarction(within 7 days)were recruited from the Neurology Department from Mar 2006 to Jan 2007.A11 patients were assessed with DTI.National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS),Bathel Index(BI),modified Rankin Scale(mRS)and Motricity Index(MI)within 7 days from onset,and at the second week.DTI was performed with SIEMENS Trio 3.0 T MR scanner.The placement of region of interest(ROI),measurement of diffusion indices were performed by DTI Studio software.The mean diffusivity(MD),the fractional anisotropy(FA),the first eigenvalue (λ1),the second eigenvalue(λ2),and the third eigenvalue(λ3)were computed.Results At the second week.NIHSS was 6.93±3.39.BI 45.33±26.01,mRS 4.33±0.90.and MI 69.47± 60.71.At the second week from onset.MD of the pyramidal tract at the levels of the middle slice of pons and the superior slice of medulla oblongata showed no significant differences between both the two sides at second week from onset. Other ROI showed significant differences between both sides.MD.FA and λ1 of affected side were lower than the unaffected side.λ2 and λ3 of the affected side were higher than the unaffected side.Positive correlations were found between FA and BI(r=0.530,P=0.042),FA and MI(r=0.543,P=0.036)at the second week.Negative correlations were found between FA and NIHSS(r=-0.613,P=0.015)at the second week.Conclusions DTI can detect the changes in the pyramidal tract due to WD within 7-14 days after ischemic stroke.including a decrease of the fractional anisotropy.the first eigenvalue and increased the second and the third eigenvalues.The fractional anisotropy of the second week from onset is related to the outcome of the motor function.
