Objective To study the correlation between the contrast enhancement features on spiral computed tomography (SCT) and different clinicopathological characteristics in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods Fifty cases (54 lesions) of HCC proved pathologically and examined with enhancement dual-phase SCT scanning (arterial phase and portal vein phase) were included in this study. The SCT features and the clinical details about resection and pathological differentiation were recorded. All the features of SCT were compared with some clinical and histopathological characteristics of HCC.Results The features of SCT were correlated with pathological characteristics of HCC. The pseudocapsula patterns were related with Edmondson's grade, and the enhancement patterns were associated with the diameter of tumor and intratumoral necrosis. There was a significant correlation between the high infiltration and severity (intrahepatic daughter foci, tumor-emboli in portal veins, lymphatic metastasis) on the SCT images and the diameter of tumor. The same correlation was found between the diameter of tumor on the SCT images and AFP value, and also between hepatic cirrhosis on the SCT images and HBsAg, the diameter of tumor.Conclusion This research confirms that SCT features are correlated with some clinicopathological characteristics of HCC.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and the clinical value of MRI in the diagnosis of small-bowel disease. Methods Sixty-three patients with suspected small-bowel diseases and 3 volunteers without signs of small bowel disease underwent MRI examination. Thirty-one patients whose diagnoses were confirmed by pathology or clinical results were categorized into two groups (neoplastic and normeoplastic). The conspicuity of bowel wall, the sensitivity of MRI in detecting small-bowel lesions, and the accuracy rate of diagnosis were calculated. The average bowel wall thickness between the two groups was assessed by using Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes, mesenteric infiltration, and small-bowel stenosis were analyzed by using Fisher's exact test in each group respectively. Results MRI examinations of all 66 subjects were successfully performed. Images were rated on a continuous 4-peint scale. Sixty-two cases (93.9%) were scored as 2 or 3. The diagnoses of 31 patients (neoplastic group (n = 10) and nonneoplastic group (n = 21) were confirmed by pathology or clinical results. The sensitivity, accuracy of MRI in identifying small bowel diseases were 100% (31/31) and 77.4% (24/31) respectively. The average bowel wall thickness of the two groups was 23 mm(7.0-65.0 mm) and 5 mm(2.0-35.0 mm) respectively, and there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups (Z = - 2.949, P < 0.01). Enlarged lymph nodes in mesentery were found in 7 cases in neoplastic group and 4 cases in nonneoplastic group, and there was a statistically significant difference between the two group (P < 0.05). Small-bowel stenosis was depicted in 10 cases in both groups and there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P <0.01). The mesenteric infiltration sign was seen in 5 cases and 17 cases respectively, and showed no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion MRI can depict the location and extension of the small-bowel disease accurately and it is an effective method in the diagnosis of small-bowel disease.

1.The nutrient content of yeast (Condida Y-17) grown on n-alkane studied in this experiment was comparable to that of the same type of yeast produced in other countries. Its content of lead, arsenic, mercury and benzo (a) pyrene were within the limit proposed by the Protein-Calorie Advisory Group of the United Nations System. The Content of its residual n-alkanes and total aromatic hydrocarbons were within or a little over that limit. It is a good supplementary protein feed.2.The corrected PER values were, yeast grown on n-alkane 1.18; deli pid and denucleic acid yeast grown on n-alkane 1.16; brewer's yeast 1.52; full fat soybean meal 1.81. The PER of yeast grown on n-alkane was significantly lower than those of other samples. When 0.3% DL-methionine was added to the diet, the corrected PER values increased: n-alkane grown yeast 2.32; delipid and denucleic acid n-alkane grown yeast 2.49; brewer's yeast 2.35; full fat soybean meal 2.28. The corrected PER value of casein used for correction was 2.43, it was standardized with ANRC reference protein (PER = 2.50).3.Yeast grown on n-alkane with and without removal of lipids and nucleic acid was fed to groups of rats at a dietary level of 25% and 35% respectively for 1 year. A stock diet group and a brewer's yeast diet group were used as control. In the first 3 months the weight gain and feed consumption of the rats fed n-alkanc grown yeast diet were lower than those of the two control groups. The male rats were more sensitive to the change of diet. In the later 9 months the difference of weight gain among different groups were not significant. The concentration of haemoglobin, red cell counts, white cell counts, GPTase activity, serum cholesterol levels and serum urea levels determined at the beginning and the end of the experiment were all in the normal ranges. The concentrations of n-alkanes and odd-chain fatty acids in the adipose tissue of the n-alkane grown yeast group were higher than those of the two control groups, and the difference was highly significant. The concentrations of total aromatic hydrocarbons and benzo(a) pyrene in the muscle of different groups of rats were 0.4-0.6 ppm and 0.4 ppb respectively. No detrimental effect was observed in pathological examination.4.When 5% fish meal or 3.5% casein was added to the 25% n-alkane grown yeast diet, the weight gain and feed consumption of weanling rats were improved significantly, though it was still inferior to those fed with stock diet.5.Strongly growth depressive effect was noted as the level of n-alkane grown yeast was increased to 20% in the diet. This depressive effect was neither due to the toxicity of the residual n-alkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons, nor due to the deficiencies of potassium and selenium in the diet. It might be the result of nutrient or nutrients imbalance of the diet. The appropriate amount of yeast grown on n-alkane used in mixed feed should not be more than 15%.

Objective:
To compare the effects of different types of strength training on upper limbs’ body composition and maximum strength and bone density of male university students, so as to provide a reference for college students to choose reasonable resistance training methods.
Methods:
Forty-two male university students were randomly divided into three experimental groups: maximum-strength group, MS(n=12); speed-strength group, SS(n=15); strength-endurance group, SE(n=15). All subjects were subject to resistance training for 6 weeks, twice a week. Incremental load method was used to determine the maximum strength of the subject to develop a training program. Upper limbs’ Body Composition and BMD were performed by Dual energy X-ray absorptionmetry.
Results:
After the continuous training for 6 weeks, maximum strength of upper limbs increased significantly with training time,SE grows faster[(51.00±4.81)(67.20±5.66)(76.87±6.21)kg]; The body fat percentage of SS group and SE group decreased significantly[(13.50±4.10)%,(12.60±2.80)%;(13.70±3.80)%,(12.70±3.10)%](t=2.35,2.30,P<0.05), while LM of upper limb increased significantly[(5.19±0.59)(5.86±0.61);(5.27±0.72)(6.21±0.59)kg](t=-2.48,-2.94,P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the body fat percentage and LM of upper limb between MS group[(14.0±3.3)%,(13.6±2.3)%] and SE group[(5.33±0.81)(5.41±0.79)kg](t=0.31,-0.22,P>0.05); BMC and BMD of upper limbs increased in all groups, but the increase of SS group and SE group was statistically significant(t=-3.07,-2.43,P<0.05).
Conclusion
Strength endurance resistance training for male college students can effectively promote muscle strength growth, increase bone density and improve upper limb composition.

This study was undertaken to observe the biochemical changes in striatum of Parkinson's disease (PD) rat model by modified proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy. 12 SD rats were divided into model (n=7) and control (n=5) groups. At 3 weeks after the injection of 6-hydroxydopamine into right striatum, 1H-MRS on the striatum was taken by modified proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and then tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunostatining was used to visualize the changes of the neurons in substantia nigra and neurites in striatum. The results showed that TH positive neurons and neurites in the substantia nigra compacts (SNc) and striatum in the normal side of the rat model of PD were decreased (P < 0.05), which proved the successful establishment of PD models. The NAA/Cr ratio of the injected side striatum of model group was lower than that of the normal side (P < 0.05). The ratios of Cho/Cr showed no significant difference between the two sides (P > 0.05). These results indicated that the modified 1.5T 1H-MRS should be a noninvasive technique which could provide useful information about the biochemical metabolites in striatum for the study of PD in rat model.
