Conclusions:Abnormal glucolipid metabolism and insulin resistance have a higher detection rate in first-episode non-medicated schizophrenia, and have a certain relationship with the psychiatric symptoms and cognitive impairment of patients.

Objective To investigate the value of kinetic features measured by computer-aided diagnosis (CAD)for breast MRI.Methods One hundred and sixty four lesions diagnosed pathologically by operation or biopsy comprised the analysis set.Automated lesion kinetic information from CADStream programs for breast MRI was identified.Three CAD variables were compared for benign and malignant lesions: initial phase peak enhancement (greatest percentage of signal intensity increase on first contrast enhanced sequence),delayed phase enhancement categorized by a single type of kinetics comprising the largest percentage of enhancement (washout,plateau,or persistent),and delayed phase enhancement categorized by single most suspicious type of kinetics (any washout ＞ any plateau ＞ any persistent).Morphological characteristics of breast lesions were described according to breast imaging and reporting data system (BI-RADS).Initial phase peak enhancement mean values between benign and malignant breast lesions were compared by using Wilcoxon rank-sum test,delayed phase enhancement categorized by a single type of kinetics comprising the largest percentage of enhancement or by single most suspicious type of kinetics between benign and malignant breast lesions were compared by using Chi-square test.Results There were 72 benign and 92 malignant breast lesions.A total of 123 (75.0％) mass lesions were identified,and the other 41 (25.0％) lesions showed no mass.Thirty lesions were BI-RADS-MRI 2,68 lesions were BI-RADS-MRI 3,43 lesions were BI-RADS-MRI 4,23 lesions were BI-RADS-MRI 5.Initial phase peak enhancement mean values of benign and malignant lesions were 237％ (69％ to 629％)and 336％ (86％ to 793％),respectively.There was no significant difference between benign and malignant lesions in initial peak enhancement mean value (Z =-1.626,P =0.104).Delayed phase enhancement categorized by single most suspicious type of kinetics (any washout ＞ any plateau ＞ any persistent) for benign and malignant lesions were 15,10,47 and 2,3,87 respectively.There was a significant difference between benign and malignant lesions (x2 =23.562,P =0.000).Initial peak enhancement value ＜ 100％ or ≥100％ were 5 and 67 for benign lesions,3 and 89 for malignant lesions,respectively.There was no significant difference between benign and malignant lesions at 100％ threshold (x2 =1.181,P =0.277).Delayed phase enhancement categorized by a single type of kinetics comprising the largest percentage of enhancement (washout,plateau,or persistent) for benign and malignant lesions were 48,6,18 and 47,15,30 respectively.There was no significant difference between benign and malignant lesions (x2 =4.496,P =0.106).Conclusions Of CAD kinetics analyzed,only delayed enhancement categorized by most suspicious type is helpful for the differentiation between benign and malignant lesions.However,there is significant overlap between initial peak enhancement at 100％ threshold or delayed kinetics categorized by largest percentage enhancement types of benign and malignant lesions,so lesion morphologic features should be considered.

BACKGROUND: Cytokine is a poly-functional and effective regulator factor to regulate growth of multiple cells. Researches suggest that, as an inflammatory medium, cytokines play a key role in inflammatory reaction of eye; however, there are rare studies on dynamic changes after traumatic cataract.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship among inflammatory reaction and dynamic changes of interleukin 1 (IL-1),IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) in aqueous humor of rabbits after extracapsular cataract extraction.DESIGN: Randomized controlled animal study.SETTING: Shenzhen Municipal Ophthalmology Hospital, Shenzhen Municipal Ophthalmology Center Affiliated to Medical College of Jinan University.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out in Institute of Shenzhen Municipal Ophthalmology Center Affiliated to Medical College of Jinan University from March 2004 to March 2006. Fifteen healthy adult New Zealand rabbits of 30 eyes,general grade, weighting 2.5-3.0 kg, of either gender, were provided by Animal Center of the Second Clinical Medical College of Jinan University [certification: SYXK (yue) 2005-006]. Eyes of rabbits were normal before experiment. All rabbits were randomly divided into normal control group, traumatic control group and operative group with 5 in each group and in total of 10 eyes in each group. IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α kits were provided by Shenzhen Yawei Biotechnology Company Limited.METHODS: Rabbits in traumatic control group and operative group were totally anesthetized with intravenous injection of 10% 1 mi/kg urethan, and then, 5# needle was punctured from corneal limbus to anterior chamber to scarify anterior membrane of lens about 5 mm to establish animal models of traumatic cataract of oculus uterque. Rabbits in normal control group were fed normally. After successful modeling, common antibiotic eyedrops was used to clean conjunctival sac of rabbits in traumatic control group and operative group 3 times a day. On the 3rd day of successful modeling, rabbits in operative group were totally anesthetized with intravenous injection of 10% 1 mL/kg urethan, and then, they undertook extracapsular cataract extraction of oculus uterque: horizontally intercepting bladder or waterly separating with breakage of anterior bladder membrane, expulsing nucleus of lens, washing lens cortex and suturing incisions. On the operative day and on the 1st, 3rd, 7th and 14th days after operation, inflammatory reaction of anterior chamber in traumatic control group and operative group was measured and 0.2 mL aqueous humor was extracted from rabbits in three groups to count and classify cells; meanwhile, expressed level and dynamic changes of IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α in cytokines of aqueous humor were measured with double-antibodies ELASA technique.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Total numbors of leucocytes and contents of IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α in aqueous humor of rabbits in three groups after operation.RESULTS: ① On the 1st, 3rd, 7th and 14th days after operation, numbers of leucocytes were (2.4±0.7)×106/L, (2,2±0.5)×106/L, (2.8±0.8)×106/L and (2.0±0.5)×106/L in aqueous humor; (19.7±7.3)×106/L, (28.1±9.6)×106/L, (14.2±5.6)×106/L and(8.4±3.8)×106/L in traumatic control group; (65.3±14.5)×106/L, (79.8±12.7)×106/L, (21.7±8.2)×106/L and (12.4±4.1)×106/L in operative group. In addition, numbers of leucocytes were more in traumatic control group and operative group than those in normal control group (F =22.5, 27.9, 11.6, 8.4;P＜0.05). ② Within 1-14 days after operation, contents of IL-1, IL-6and TNF-α in aqueous humo were higher in traumatic control group and operative group than those in normal control group (P＜0.05), and there was a significant difference between traumatic control group and operative group (P＜0.05);however, there was no significant difference among three groups on the operative day (P＞0.05). ③ Contents of cytokines reached peak on the 7th day after operation, decreased gradually, and reached the lowest value on the 14th day.Contents in traumatic control group and operative group were higher than those in normal control group (P＜0.05).CONCLUSION: The intraocular inflammation after lens extraction is closely related to the dynamic changes of IL-1, IL-6and TNF-α levels in aqueous humor. Cytokine may be one of crucially inflammatory agents in the eyes after traumatic cataract.

Objective To evaluate multiple magnetic resonance (MR) imaging techniques in the differentiation of benign and malignant soft tissue tumors by comparing different information from MR perfusion-weighted Imaging (MR-PWI) and 1 HMR spectroscopy (1 H-MRS).Methods Forty patients with soft tissue tumors underwent conventional MR imaging,dynamic contrast-enhanced T2*-weighted MR-PWI and 1 H proton MR spectroscopy.The differences of perfusion and 1 H-MRS parameters of benign and malignant tumors were analyzed with t test.Results There was significant difference between benign and malignant tumoral tissues of BF value and Cho/Cr ratio(t=2.531,2.927,P < 0.05),while BV,MTT,Cho,Cr or Lip peak value were not.TIC was different between benign group (Ib) and malignant group (Ia).When the threshold value of BF was 4.35 ml ·100 mg-1·min-1,sensitivity and specificity for determining malignant tumors were 81.8%(18/22),72.2%(13/18),respectively.When the threshold value of Cho/Cr ratio was 3.22,Sensitivity and specificity for determining malignant tumors were 86.4% (19/22),88.9% (16/18),respectively.The abnormal wave crest is detected at 2.0-2.1ppm in 5 malignant tumors (2 malignant schwannoma and 3 malignant fibrous histiocytoma),while the other 35 cases were not.Conclusion The BF value and Cho/Cr ratio were both valuable diagnostic parameters in differentiating benign and malignant soft tissue tumors.TIC was helpful to distinguish malignant tumors from benign tumors,while the sensitivity and specificity of 1 H-MRS in diagnosing malignant soft tissue tumors were both higher.

Objective To explore the methods of labeling exogenous microglia with superparamagnetie iron oxide(SPIO)particles,and to monitor the labeled cells after transplantation into the normal rat and Alzheimer's disease(AD)model rat with MR scanning.Methods Microglia was labeled with SPIO particles by using transfection agent,hemagglutinating virus of Japan envelope(HVJ-E).Then the microglias which were labeled with SPIO were injected into the internal carotid artery of normal rat (n=5)and AD model rat(n=5).Three days after transplantation,follow-up serial T2*-weighted gradient-echo MR imaging was performed at 7.0T MRI system.MR images were correlated with histological findings.Results In the brain of normal rat,the labeled microglias were demonstrated as several dotty signalintensity decrease on T2*-weighted MR images.The dotty spots were sporadic around the brain.Histological analysis showed that most prussian blue staining-positive cells were well correlated with the area where a signal intensity decrease was observed in MRI.MR could detect the signal intensity change caused by a few labeled cells.In the brain of AD model rat,MR scan showed a well-defined hypointensity area in the region of Aβ42 iniection.Signal intensity decrease was not obvious in the region of saline injection.The number of iron-positive cells(454±47)/mm2 at sites of Aβ42 injection was much higher than that(83±13)/mm2 of saline injection(P＜0.05). Conclusion MR can be used as a non-invasive means of detecting transplanted labeled microglia in vivo,with the potential for future clinical application in cell therapy of AD.
