To explore the anti-atherosclerotic mechanism of estrogen and especially observe the effect of estradiol on the content of cholesterol in J774a.1 mouse mononuclear/macrophage-derived foam cells which were incubated with oxidized low-density lipoproteins (ox-LDL). J774a.1 mouse mononuclear/macrophages were incubated with ox-LDL or with both ox-LDL and estradiol (1, 0.1 or 0.01 micromol x L(-1)). Oil red O staining was used to observe the formation of foam cells, and cholesterol oxidase fluorometric was used to determine the content of cellular cholesterol content. Western blotting and RTFQ-PCR were used to observe the expressions of scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-B I ) in J774a.1 foam cells. Compared with the control cells, J774a.1 mouse mononuclear/macrophage-derived foam cells showed significantly increased contents of total cholesterol and cholesterol ester (P < 0.001) and decreased SR-B I mRNA expression (P < 0.01). Estradiol treatment significantly lowered the contents of total cholesterol and cholesterol ester (P < 0.05), and increased SR-B I protein and mRNA expression (P < 0.01) in the foam cells in a dose-dependent manner. Estradiol can inhibit the formation of mononuclear/macrophage-derived foam cells by decreasing the contents of total cholesterol and cholesterol ester and up-regulating the expression of SR-B I in the foam cells.

Ulta performance liqiuid chromatography-triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry ( UPLC-MS/MS) was used to monitor the relative levels of bufadienolides in toad venom in normal and bensulfuron-polluted groups. Methanol extract of toad venom was separated by UPLC ( ODS-C18 ) using a gradient elution of water contains 0. 1% formic acid and acetonitrile. Mass spectrometry was used in an ESI source operated in positive ion and MRM mode. The parameters in the source were set as follows: capillary voltage 3. 0 kV; sampling cone voltage 30 V; and desolvation temperature 500℃. In this method, external calibrations of 6 standards were typically constructed (R2=0. 9953-0. 9992). The LOD was 0. 42-4. 86 ng/mL. Intra- and inter-day precision was 3. 8%-6. 8% and 4. 0%-8. 8%, respectively. The recovery of standard was evaluated by spiking the standard compound into toad venom. Their average recoveries were 96. 9%-109. 6%, and RSDs were 2. 0%-8. 1%. This method was further employed into monitoring the levels of 36 bufadienolides. The levels of more than 20 bufadienolides were greatly different after bensulfuron pollution, suggesting that the bensulfuron pollution could change the chemical expression pattern of bufadienolides in toad venom.

Objective To study the compliance of examinees,and effectiveness of colorectal distension with partially automated and individualized insufflation of air for dual-energy CT colonography.Methods Forty-six healthy adult volunteers without history of conditions affecting gastrointestinal motor function were enrolled in this study.One day before CT examination,volunteers were asked to orally administered 60 mL 4% diatrizoate meglumine five times for fecal tagging.Air was insufflated by using an inflator in a partially automated and individualized manner.The volunteers were initially asked to assume the right lateral decubitus position,then slowly turn to the supine position.Insufflation rate began at 1.5 L/min,and decreased to 0.5 L/min at later stage.The necessity and volume of air insufflation were decided according to effectiveness of colorectal distension on CT scout images,self-reported sensation of volunteers,and intestinal pressure.Dual-energy CT scanning was performed,and dual-energy blended images were acquired.Compliance of volunteers was statistically analyzed.The effectiveness of colorectal segments distension was statistically analyzed by using Kruskal-Wallis H test.Results No abdominal pain,bloating,nausea or vomiting were noted in the 46 volunteers.All volunteers easily accepted colorectal insufflation of air,with grade 1 compliance.The effectiveness of colorectal distension of grades 1,2,3 and 4 were 0%,2.1%,5.1% and 92.8%,respectively.The difference of effectiveness of colorectal segments distension had no statistical significance(χ2=6.19,P=0.288).The effectiveness of insufflation was poor in 6 colorectal segments,including 2 in sigmoid colon and 2 in rectum.Effectiveness of insufflation was suboptimal in 14 colorectal segments,including 4 in descending colon,4 in sigmoid colon,and 3 in rectum.Conclusion Compliance of examinees with partially automated and individualized insufflation of air for dual-energy CT colonography is excellent,with good effectiveness of colorectal distension.

Objective:To investigate the value of CT radiomics mode in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules.Methods:The clinical and imaging data of 179 patients with thyroid nodules confirmed by pathology from May 2017 to August 2018 were retrospectively analyzed in the Affiliated Huaian First People′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University. Among the patients, 89 cases were benign nodules and 90 cases were malignant nodules. All patients underwent unenhanced and enhanced CT scan before operation. The stratified random sampling method was used to divide patients into a training group (143 cases) and a testing group (36 cases) according to a ratio of 8∶2. The A.K software was used to extract 378 imaging omics features based on preoperative CT images, and then Spearman correlation analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analysis were used for feature selection and model construction. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to verify the model in the training group and the testing group, and the efficacy of imaging omics features to predict benign and malignant thyroid nodules was evaluated.Results:After feature screening, 16 radiomics features were used to construct an identification model between benign and malignant thyroid nodules. In the training group, the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.92 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.88-0.97], the sensitivity and specificity were 88.7%, 82.0%, and the diagnostic accuracy of the model was 91.1%. In the testing group, AUC was 0.90 (95 %CI: 0.81-0.98), sensitivity and specificity were 88.5%, 84.6%, and the diagnostic accuracy of the model was 88.2%. Conclusion:The CT radiomics mode has a good diagnostic performance in the identification of benign and malignant thyroid nodules.

Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic effect and safety of microwave ablation plus curettage.Methods:Clinical data of a single group of 12 patients admitted to our hospital from June 2015 to June 2019 who underwent microwave ablation for bone metastasis were retrospectively analyzed. There were 7 males and 5 females, with an average age of 59.5±10.1 (range from 43 to 79) years old. Curettage plus bone cement after microwave ablation was performedand when the lesion involved the sacroiliac joint surface and impaired the bearing arch, the internal fixation was performed with plate and screws. 8 among the 12 patients underwent curettage, bone cement and metal internal fixation after microwave ablation. After microwave ablation, and 4 patients underwent curettage and reconstruction with bone cement alone. The patients were followed up aftersurgery. The observational indicators included: patient survival rate, local recurrence rate, perioperative complications, Operation time, intraoperative blood loss, VAS score, SF-36 score, and MSTS function score. VAS scores and SF-36 scores were recorded before surgery, 1 week after surgery and 3 months after surgery.Results:12 patients were followed up for 4-27 months, with an average follow-up time of 14.2 months and a median follow-up time of 9 months. During the follow-up, 7 patients died and 5 survived, with a 6-month survival rate of 81.8%, a 1-year survival rate of 40.9% and a 2-year survival rate of 27.3%. The mean survival time of the dying patients was 8.8 months (5-18 months), and the median survival time was 7 months. Operation time was 101±21 min and intraoperative blood loss was 295±108 ml. During the follow-up period, local recurrence rate was 8.3% (1/12), and the average postoperative time to recurrence was 4 months. There were no complications such as wound nonunion, wound infection, deep infection, vascular nerve heat injury and internal fixation failure. VAS score before surgery was 7.5 (7, 8) points, VAS score 1 week after surgery was 5 (4, 5) points, and VAS score 3 months after surgery was 5 (4, 5.75) points ( P<0.05). Preoperative SF-36 score was 23 (21, 24.75) points, 1 week after surgery SF-36 score was 47 (46, 54) points, and 3 months after surgery SF-36 score was 50.5 (47, 55.25) points ( P<0.05). 3 months after the operation, the MSTS score was 20.5 (16.25, 21.75) points, of which excellent 16.7% (2/12), good 50% (6/12), medium 16.7% (2/12), poor 16.7% (2/12), and the overall excellent and good rate was 66.7% (8/12). Conclusion:Microwave ablation plus curettage for pelvic metastasis of malignant tumor can significantly relieve local pain, rebuild limb function and improve patients' quality of life, and it`s an alternative treatment for pelvic metastases.
