Objective To investigate the technical protocols and feasibility of subtraction computed tomography perfusion imaging (sCTP) on observation of ischemic necrosis of femoral head (ANFH) on dog. Methods Sixteen laboratory canines underwent CT perfusion imaging (CTP) of femoral head before and after selective femoral circumflex artery embolization, and ANFH were observed. Then new sequence imaging data, created by sources imaging of CT perfusion scan using subtraction software, were analyzed at workstation (AW 4.2) with CT perfusion 3 analysis program, and data of sCTP were obtained. The parametric maps and indexes of capillary-level hemodynamics including blood volume (BV), blood flow (BF) and mean transit time (MTT) of CTP and sCTP were compared. Results ①The technical success rate of sCTP post-processing created from CTP sources imaging data was 100%. The values and mappings of BF, BV and MTT of region of interest (ROI) were all obtained from subtraction sequence images data. The post-processing time of sCTP was about 1-5 h. ② sCTP depicted ANFH well, though the values and mappings of BF, BV and MTT were different from those obtained with conventional bone CTP. Conclusion sCTP can be generated with subtraction and perfusion analysis program and techniques. It can be applied to bone CT perfusion imaging and early quantitative diagnosis of necrosis.

Objective:To understand the cognitive differences and its influential factors of medical dispute and physician′s professionalism between medical personnel and patients, and further to provide evidence for the preven-tion and treatment of medical dispute. Methods:In the case of quality control, we surveyed on the cognitive of medical dispute and physician′s professionalism in medical personnel and patients using self-designed question-naire. Stratified cluster sampling method was used in this study, which recruited 847 medical workers and 577 pa-tients. Data analysis was conducted with SPSS 16. 0. The two sample rates were compared using Chi squaretest (α=0. 05). Results:There is a statistically significance in doctor-patient relationship evaluation, dispute pre-vention, dispute responsibility, fair treatment,impact on the doctors and patients, causes of medical disturbance, attitude tomedical disturbance, medical disturbance elimination, physician′s professionalism evaluation, improve-ment approach, and the physician′s professional value between the two samples, having a direct impact on the con-struction of physician′s professionalism. Conclusion:For medical personnel, they should strengthen the construc-tion of physician′s professionalism and establish effective mechanism to prevent medical dispute. For patienes, they should understand, trust and respect the doctors, and solve medical dispute rationally. For government, they should establish a reasonable mechanism for the settlement of medical dispute, create a rational atmosphere respon-ding to the medical dispute, and reduce the intensification of medical dispute.

Objective To study the influence of traction on the blood circulation of femur head and its evaluation by DSA. Methods Using micro-catheter, transfemoral selective femoral circumflex arteriography in 22 healthy dogs was performed in unilateral hip before (Group A,n =22) and immediately (Group B,n=22) ,30( Group D,n =22) ,60(Group E,n=20) ,90( Group F,n = 10),120 (Group G,n=10) minutes during 2 kg skin hip traction, and immediately after traction removal (Group H,I,J,L and 0), and 30 minutes after traction removal with 60,90 and 120 minutes continuous traction(Group K,M and P),and 60 minutes after traction removal with 90 and 120 minutes continuous traction(Group N and Q). DSA was also performed immediately during 4 kg weight traction before continuous traction in 12 hips( Group C).Blood circulation of the femoral head was evaluated mainly by observing its perfusion and time of circulation. Femur head perfusion was assessed as good scoring 3,poor scoring 2 and extremely poor scoring 1. Femur head circulation time was assessed as normal scoring 3 .prolonged scoring 2 and remarkably prolonged scoring 1. Analysis of variance was employed for analysis of the angiographic findings between different groups.Results Good femoral head perfusion in Group A to Q was 22,0,0,0,0,0,0,22,22,1,18,0,0,8,0,0 and 1 hips respectively, poor one was 0,22,8,22,15,4,1,0,0,15,2,4,6,2,1,3 and 8 hips, respectively,extremely poor one was 0,0,4,0,5,6,9,0,0,4,0,6,4,0,9,7 and 1 hips, respectively; and normal femoral head blood circulation time was 22,0,0,0,0,0,0,22,22,1,18,0,0,8,0,0 and 1 hips, respectively, prolonged one was 0,22,9,22,15,4,2,0,0, 15,2,5,7,2,2,4 and 8 hips, respectively, remarkably prolonged one was 0,0,3,0,5,6,8,0,0,4,0,5,3,0,8,6 and 1 hips, respectively. F value of femoral head perfusion among group A and B,group B and C,group B,D,E,F and G,Group H,I,J,L and O,group K,M and P,Group N and Q was 437. 48,30. 25,29. 04,132. 69,143. 73,25.20, respectively, and their P value was all <0. 01. F value of femoral head circulation time among group A and B,group B and C,group B,D,E,F and G,Group H,I,J,L and O,group K,M and P,Group N and Q was 386. 26,31. 83,22.43,141. 94,119.69,21.68, respectively, and their P value was all < 0.01. Conclusions Traction could lead to ischemic response and circulation disorder of canine femoral head. The longer the traction time or the bigger the traction weight was, the poorer the femoral head perfusion and the longer the femoral head circulation time were, and the slower they recovered. DSA could directly reflect these changes in the femoral head with these angioarchitectural and hemodynamic indexes.

Objective To investigate the initial dose and safety of intravenous infusion of sodium (s)-2-(dithiocarboxylato((2R,3R,4R,5R,6R)-2,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxyhexyl) amino)-4-(methylthio) butanoate (GMDTC) for the displacement of cadmium. Methodsi) Efficacy test. The New Zealand male rabbits were randomly divided into model group, calcium disodium edetate (EDTA) group and GMDTC low-, medium- and high-dose groups after cadmium poisoning using 2.5 cadmium chloride dihydrate. Rabbits in EDTA group were intravenously injected with EDTA dipotassium at a dose of 93.5 mg/kg body weight, rabbits in the three doses groups were intravenously injected of GMDTC at doses of 12.0, 36.0, and 108.0 mg/kg body weight, respectively. The rabbits in the control group (separate set) and model group were intravenously injected with equal volumes of 0.9% sodium chloride solution, administered for five consecutive days per week for 1, 2, and 4 weeks. ii) Toxicity test. Specific pathogen free SD rats were randomly divided into solvent control group and low-, medium- and high-dose groups. In the acute toxicity test, the rats in the three-dose groups were intravenously injected of GMDTC at doses of 200.0, 800.0 and 3 000.0 mg/kg body weight, respectively. In the long-term toxicity test, the rats in the three-dose groups were intravenously injected GMDTC at doses of 100.0, 500.0 and 2 000.0 mg/kg body weight, respectively, once a day for four consecutive weeks, with a recovery period of four weeks. The rats in the solvent control group were given an equal volume 0.9% sodium chloride solution intravenously at the same time. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and no observable adverse effect level (NOAEL) were detected. Resultsi) In the one week treatment experiment, the 24 hours urinary cadmium levels of rabbits in the three doses groups were higher than those in the model group at the same time point (all P<0.05). In the two weeks treatment experiment, the 24 hours urinary cadmium levels of rabbits in medium-dose and high-dose groups at the three time points were higher than those in the model group at the same time point (all P<0.05). In the four weeks treatment experiment, the 24 hours urinary cadmium level on the 19th day of rabbits in the low-dose group was higher than that in the model group at the same time point (P<0.05), and the 24 hours urinary cadmium levels of rabbits in medium- and high-dose groups at the five time points were higher than those in the model group at the same time point (all P<0.05), except for the rabbits of fifth day of the medium-dose group. The kidney cadmium levels of rabbits in the low-dose group after four week of treatment and in the medium- and high-dose groups after one, two, and four weeks of treatment decreased compared with the model group (all P<0.05). No obvious adverse effects were observed during the treatment. ii) The MTD of GMDTC in rats administered intravenously in a single dose was 3 000.0 mg/kg body weight. During the period of intravenous infuseion with GMDTC for four consecutive weeks, the blood drug level reached the peak at the end of the first and last administrations (eight min), and no clinical adverse reactions were observed during this period of time, nor was there any apparent accumulation. The NOAEL for intravenous infusion of GMDTC for four consecutive weeks in rats was 500.0 mg/kg body weight. Conclusion The initial dose of the GMDTC injection in the cadmium poisoning rabbit was 36.0 mg/kg body weight, and the recommended initial dose for human is 480.0 mg/person. Intravenous infusion of GMDTC is characterized by rapid absorption, rapid elimination, and no accumulation.
