Objective To investigate the MR imaging features of chondroblastoma,and to address the correlation with findings of X-ray radiography and CT.Methods The imaging findings including MRI,X-ray radiography and CT of 16 chondroblastomas proved by surgery and pathology were analyzed and correlated with each other. Results All sixteen chondroblastomas involved the epiphyses of long bones,with varying sizes from 0.8 cm to 5.1 cm and lobulation. They were iso- and hypo-intense on T1WI and had heterogeneous signals on T2WI.They were of soft tissue density on CT,and had areas of calcifications and low density.The rims were hypointense on both T1 WI and T2 WI and showed hyperdensity on CT. The lesions were surrounded by edema of bone marrow which was hypointense on T1 WI and hyperintense on fat suppressed T2WI,while on X-Ray film and CT it was hyperdense sclerotic area.The adjacent soft tissues were swelling.Nine cases had periosteal abnormalities on MRI in which 8 of 9 periosteal abnormalities were distant from the primary lesions,and 6 of them showed hyperdense perosteal new bone on CT.Twelve cases had joint effusion on MRI and CT detected 6 of them.The lesions had heterogeneous enhancement,and there was enhancement in areas of edema within bone marrow,periosteal reaction and adjacent soft tissue.Chondroblastoma was intermediate and hyperintense on DWI,and the intermediate areas on both T1 WI and T2WI,together with areas of bone marrow edema,periosteal reaction and soft tissue swelling,were hyperintense on DWI.Conclusions The MRI,X-ray and CT can reflect the pathological changes of chondroblastoma from different aspects.The characteristics of chondroblastoma can be better appreciated by combining different imaging methods.

Objective To evaluate the application value of identification on drown by detection 16SrDNA of the diatoms in rabbits' internal organs in summer month of July and winter month of December in YongJiang River of Ningbo. Methods 60 Rabbits were randomly and medially divided into three groups in summer and winter: drowning group, postmortem immersion group and using only lethal aeroembolism as control group. Specimen including heart, liver, lung and kidney from each rabbit were tested with diatom 16SrDNA PCR method. Results Compared with postmortem immersion group, detection rate of diatom 16SrDNA of heart, liver, lung, renal tissue in drowning group was significantly higher than that in summer month of July (P<0.05), In December, the 16SrDNA of the drowning group was detected in heart and lung tissues, There was no significant difference compared with postmortem immersion group (P>0.05) In summer month of July, detection rate of 16SrDNA of heart, liver, lung, renal tissues in drowning group was significantly higher than that in winter month of December (P<0.05). Diatom 16SrDNA of heart, liver, lung, kidney tissues in air embolism group were not detected In summer month of July and winter month of December. Conclusion With the higher detection rate of diatom 16SrDNA in drowning rabbit in summer, the diatom 16SrDNA PCR method can be used for the diagnosis of drowning in Yongjiang River of Ningbo; while in winter , it should be carefully apllied with the lower detection rate of diatom 16SrDNA.

Objective:To investigate the effect of hemoglobin on Shp2 expression in brain tissues and adherens junction in blood brain barrier in rats after cerebral hemorrhage.Methods:Eighty male SD rats were randomly allocated into sham-operated group and groups of cerebral hemorrhage for 6 h, 24 h, 3 d, and 7 d ( n=16). Rat models in the groups of cerebral hemorrhage were established by intracerebral injection of 20 μL of hemoglobin. Six h, 24 h, 3 d, and 7 d after injection, neurological functions were assessed by Longa scale; brain water content and brain organ coefficient in the harvested cerebral tissues were calculated by wet-dry weighting method; Shp2 mRNA expression was analyzed by real-time fluorescence quantification reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR); Shp2 positive neurons was detected by immunohistochemistry; the protein expressions of Shp2, α-catenin, β-catenin and vascular endothelial (VE)-cadherin, and phosphorylated (p-) α-catenin, p-β-catenin and p-VE-cadherin were explored by Western blotting. Results:As compared with those in the sham-operated group, Longa scale scores in groups of intracerebral hemorrhage for 6 h, 24 h, 3 d and 7 d were significantly increased ( P<0.05). As compared with the sham-operated group, groups of intracerebral hemorrhage for 24 h, 3 d and 7 d had significantly increased brain water content and brain organ coefficient, statistically reduced Shp2 mRNA expression, statistically samller amount of Shp2 positive neurons, and statistically reduced Shp2 protein expression, and significantly increased protein expressions of p-α-catenin, p-β-catenin and p-VE-cadherin ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Intracerebral injection of hemoglobin can downregulate Shp2 expression and promote phosphorylation of adherens junction proteins, therefore induce the disruption of adherens junction, which might be a critical mechanism of blood-brain barrier disruption and brain edema.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between cerebrovascular variation and the occurrence and recurrence of cerebral infarction, and provide a theoretical basis for the precise prevention and treatment of cerebral infarction.Methods:Totally 13 939 patients who underwent magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) and magnetic resonance angiography(MRA) examination at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University from January 2020 to December 2021 were grouped according to clinical symptoms combined with the imaging report, including 4 412 cases in the cerebral infarction group and 9 527 cases in the control group.2 048 patients in the cerebral infarction group were eventually enrolled in the study according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, including 1 479 cases of initial cerebral infarction and 569 cases of recurrent cerebral infarction.SPSS 25.0 statistical software was used for data analysis.The χ2 test was used to compare the incidence of cerebral infarction with different cerebrovascular variations.Univariate analysis of suspected risk factors for recurrent cerebral infarction was performed with χ2 test, nonparametric test and t test.The binary logistic regression was used to analyze independent risk factors of recurrent cerebral infarction. Results:The incidence of cerebral infarction in the dual-system cerebrovascular variant patients, the single-system cerebrovascular variant patients, and the non-cerebrovascular variant patients were 40.9%, 30.7% and 31.8% respectively.The incidence of cerebral infarction in the dual-system cerebrovascular variant patients was the highest compared with those in the single-system cerebrovascular variant patients and the non-cerebrovascular variant patients (both P<0.05). The incidence rates of embryonic posterior cerebral artery, vertebral artery dominance, and bilateral common origin anterior cerebral arteries were 14.09%, 10.76% and 5.32%, respectively.The incidence of bilateral common origin anterior cerebral arteries in the cerebral infarction group was significantly higher than that in the control group and the difference was statistically significant.Patients with cerebral infarction who were familial aggregation ( OR=2.207, 95% CI=1.591-3.062), hyperhomocysteinemia ( OR=1.262, 95% CI=1.014-1.570), hypertension ( OR=1.461, 95% CI=1.114-1.918), diabetes mellitus ( OR=1.348, 95% CI=1.072-1.694), coronary heart disease ( OR=1.491, 95% CI=1.196-1.858) were more likely to recurrent cerebral infarction ( P<0.05), and patients with cerebral infarction had a significantly increased risk of recurrent cerebral infarction with age ( OR=1.031, 95% CI=1.020-1.042, P<0.05). Conclusion:Dual-system cerebrovascular variation and bilateral common origin anterior cerebral arteries are risk factors for cerebral infarction.
