Objective To investigate the clinical manifestations and MR imaging features of olivopontocerebellar atrophy(OPCA).Methods The clinical data and MR findings of 8 patients with OPCA (OPCA group) were retrospectively analyzed,and 75 cases of healthy physical examination people were chosen as control group (they were divided into 21-30 years group,31-40 years group,41-50 years group,51-60 years group,61-70 years group,and 15 cases in each group),all subjects under went pons measurement.Results All 8 patients with OPCA were sporadic cases.The cerebellar symptom,autonomic symptoms and extrapyramidal symptoms were common manifestations.The head MR imaging of OPCA presented with cerebellum and brain stem atrophy,cross sign was the characteristic appearance.Vertical diameter and anteroposterior diameter of the pons in OPCA group patients was (20.63 ± 2.16) and (16.74 ±4.37) mm,compared with control group [(27.14 ±1.73) and (22.28 ± 1.49) mm],there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.01).In control group,vertical diameter and anteroposterior diameter of the pons maximum in 21-30 years group and 31-40 years group,increased with age,the value had been reduced,but there was no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion MR is the first choice for the diagnosis of OPCA,combine with clinical manifestations may improve the diagnostic accuracy.

Objective To observe the efficacy of No. 1 Baiban granules in the treatment of vitiligo using skin confocal laser scanning microscopy. Methods The study was approved by the hospital ethics committee. Nine-two patients with qi stagnation and blood stasis were collected from Department of Dermatology of the Affiliated Hospital of Tianjin Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine and were randomly assigned to two groups. The experimental group (n=49) received oral Baiban granuleΙ, 3 g, twice a day, transfer factor capsules 6 mg, 3 times a day, 0.1%mometasone furoate cream (excluding the face) for external use, once a day, or 0.1%tacrolimus ointment (Afacial), twice a day for 3 months. The control group (n=43) only received oral transfer factor capsules 6 mg, 3 times a day, 0.1%mometasone furoate cream (except for the face) for external use, once a day, or 0.1%tacrolimus ointment (face), twice a day, treatment for 3 months. The therapeutic effect was observed in two groups. CLSM was used to monitor the compound color and pigment recovery level, and changes of the number of dendritic cells and inflammatory cell infiltration in skin. Results The compound color was improved significantly after treatment in experimental group and control group. The total effective rate was higher in experimental group than that of control group (81.63% vs. 69.77%,χ2=3.947,P<0.05). Results of CLSM observation showed that the pigment recovery of skin lesion, the proportion of dendritic cells and inflammatory cells were significantly higher in experimental group than those of control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion The treatment effect of No. 1 Baiban granules is more obvious for vitiligo of qi stagnation and blood stasis.

Objective: To establish a real-time fluorescence recombinase acid amplification (RAA) method for the detection of adenovirus type 3(HAdV-3)without extraction nucleic acid. Methods: According to the conserved sequence of adenovirus type 3 gene, a pair of primers and a probe were designed, and a real-time fluorescence RAA without extracting nucleic acid was established and optimizing the condition of DNA-free extraction. The sensitivity of the method was analyzed by a series of dilution and the specificity of the method was evaluated by detecting the original samples of other respiratory viruses. The clinical samples of HAdV-3 were detected and compared with the traditional real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR method for nucleic acid extraction. Results: The sensitivity of the real-time fluorescence RAA method was as high as that of qPCR in the detection of 10 series diluted HAdV-3 strains. The highest corresponding CT value of qPCR was 36.87. The sensitivity of the real-time fluorescence RAA method was similar to that of the real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR method . There was no cross-reaction to other common types of respiratory viruses. The two method were used to detect 56 clinical samples at the same time, and the result were completely consistent. Conclusions We provide the first report of the real-time fluorescent RAA assays for the detection of HAdV-3 without extracting nucleic acid and it has high sensitivity and specificity. Is suitable for rapid detection of HAdV-3 in clinical laboratories and on-site unite.
