Objective To compare the image quality and scanning dose of time-subtraction and dual-energy-subtraction cerebral CT angiography, and to assess clinical application value of both methods. Methods Plain and enhanced scanning were performed on 60 patients suspected cerebral vessel diseases with dual-source CT. Dual-energy mode with tube voltages of 140 and 80 kV was used in enhanced scanning, and data of two different energy were collected in one scanning. ①Traditional removed-bone digital subtraction (time-subtraction) with plain and 80 kV enhanced scanning data were obtained. Volume render (VR) and maximum intensity projection (MIP) reconstruction were finished; ②Direct removed-bone digital subtraction (dual-energy subtraction) with 80 kV and 140 kV enhanced scanning data were obtained. VR and MIP reconstruction were finished. The image quality of VR and MIP was divided into 4 grades, and were compared as well as average effective radiological dose. All the diseases were confirmed with surgery or DSA. Average effective radiological dose was compared with time-subtraction and dual-energy subtraction. Results Internal carotid artery trunk and branch and Willis circles were displayed clearly with two methods in 60 cases. No significant difference was found (P>0.05) between total quality score of the two methods. The size, shape, neck and axis point of aneurysm in 24 cases were clearly displayed, so as the shape and extent of abnormal vessel bolus in 4 cases, while arteries and veins were also clear in artery-vein malformation; ③The average radiological dose was (26.60±0.50)mSv in time-subtraction and (22.40±0.50) mSv in dual-energy subtraction. Conclusion The normal, abnormal vessels and diseases can be clearly displayed at time-subtraction and dual-energy subtraction CTA. The effect of dual-energy-subtraction is better than that of time-subtraction CTA in no-cooperation patients, and the radiological dose is lower in dual-energy CTA.

BACKGROUND: The observation of vascular endothelial growth factor gene expression of cerebrovascular diseases and ultrastructure of cells may be helpful to understand angiogenesis and its relative cellular factors involved in the pathogenesis at cellular and molecular levels. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the method of culture of human cerebral cap illary endothelial cell by separation of capillary fragment in vitro, and to ob serve vascular endothelial growth factor gene expression and ultrastructure of cells. DESIGN: A randomized controlled research on technique and method. SETTING: The neurosurgery department of a general hospital of a military area command of Chinese PLA and the neurosurgery department of a college hospital. PARTICIPANTS: Eighteen patients with arteriovenous malformation of brain(Spetzler Ⅱ-Ⅲ grade), as confirmed by aortocranial angiography before operation, in the Department of Neurosurgery, General Hospital of Shenyang Military Area Command of Chinese PLA were included. The material was obtained from fresh integrated specimen of arteriovenous malfor mation of brain with surrounding fresh brain tissues during the opera tion. Capillary endothelial cell was separated by homogenate, filtration and enzymatic digestion techniques. Cells grew well in culture flask and were divided into 4 groups(hypoxia state for 2, 4, 8 hours groups and control group). Each group contained four flasks.METHODS: Simulation of anoxia condition: volume faction 0.95 N2 and volume fraction 0.05 CO2. Expression of factor Ⅷ related antigen in cells was detected by immunohistochemistry. mRNA expression of vascular endothelial growth factor on endothelial in every group was observed by RT-PCR, protein content of vascular endothelial growth factor in supernatant detected by enzyme-linked immunoadsordent assay, and cellular ultrastructural change observed by transmission electron microscopy.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: mRNA expression of vascular endothelial growth factor on endothelial cell and protein content of vascular endothelial growth factor in supernatant in control group and every hypoxia groups; cellular ultrastructural changes.RESULTS: Under phase contrast microscope, cultured living cells had mono-layer pebble-like typical character. More than 90% of were factor Ⅷrelated antigen(FⅧ-RA) staining positive. mRNA and protein expression of vascular endothelial growth factor in hypoxia 4 hours group was 0.98 ±0. 19,( 180. 77 ± 20. 15) ng/L, which was significantly higher than in control group [0, (26. 20 ± 6.33) ng/L, P < 0.01 ]. Eight hours later, expression decreased [(0. 35 ±0.07), (31.68 ±8.34) ng/L]; swollen mitochondrion, dilated endoplasmic reticulum, and lysosome vesiculation were found.CONCLUSION: Humane cerebral capillary endothelial cell can be cultured by separation of capillary fragment, which is easy to operate and the cellular purity is reliable. In the early stage of ischemia and hypoxia, expression of vascular endothelial growth factor is not enough to maintain cellular ultrastructure integrity. Cells may be injured along with the prolong of hypoxia.Zhao MG, Tang T, Gao YZ, Pu PY, Wei XZ.

Objective To explore the feasibility and curative effect of arthroscopic treatment of avulsion fracture of the tibial attachment of anterior cruciate ligament ( ACL ) using Ethibood line plus double Endobutton plates. Methods From May 2014 to January 2016, 26 cases of acute ACL tibial attachment fracture were treated surgically. They were 16 males and 10 females, aged from 9 to 45 years ( average, 26. 6 years ) . By the Meyers-McKeeve classification, there were 17 cases of type Ⅱand 9 ones of type Ⅲ. In preoperative examina-tion, their Lachman test and Anterior Drawer Test were all positive. All their bone blocks were fixated using Ethibond line plus double Endobutton plates. Results Their operative time ranged from 50 to 70 min, averaging 57 min. On average, the 26 patients obtained a follow-up of 8 months ( from 6 to 13 months ) . X-rays at 3 months after operation showed all fractures united. At the last follow-up, their Lachman test and Anterior Drawer Test were all negative. The range of motion of the knee joint was larger than 120° in all; their Lysholm score of the knee joint averaged 90. 6 ± 2. 9 points, significantly higher than their preoperative value ( 43. 6 ± 4. 7 points ) ( t=7. 583, P=0. 026 ); their International Knee Documentation Committee ( IKDC ) scores averaged 93. 1 ± 4. 2 points, significantly higher than their preoperative value ( 46. 3 ± 5. 1 points ) ( t=8. 162, P=0. 021 ) . No such complications as reflexive neural dystrophy, avascular necrosis or weak knee extension occurred during follow-ups. Conclusion The avulsion fractures of ACL tibial attachment can be treated arthroscop-ically using Ethibood line plus double Endobutton plates, because this technique has such advantages as simple operation, limited invasion, good fracture reduction, strong fixation, and possibility of early functional rehabil-itation of the knee joint.
