Lymphoma is one of the diseases that could be cured through chemoradiotherapy, so the early efficacy evaluation can help us to realize the optimal treatment and individualized treatment.CT perfusion is a functional imaging technology which can indirectly reflect the changes in tissue in physiologica and metabolic, and provide the reliable biomarkers for early efficacy evaluation of tumors.This paper focuses on the relevant research of CT perfusion imaging in the early efficacy evaluation of lymphoma at home and abroad in recent years.

Serum insulin immunoassay plays an important role in the investigation of glucose metabolic disorders. Insulin assay has undergone method innovations for 50 years. Diverse insulin molecular immunogenicity and multiform biological activities, in addition to the immunoassay complexity, make serum insulin assays practically interfered by the factors such as blood sample qualities, serum anti-insulin antibodies and immunological cross-reactivity. Meanwhile, lack of standardization has imposed obstacles in the comparative studies among different reference laboratories.

Objective To study the effect of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) on expressions of K8 and K18 in duct epithelial cells of salivary gland. Methods The expressions of immediate early antigen of HCMV, K8 and K18 were detected by immunohistochemistry staining in tissues embedded in paraffin of parotid cytomegalic inclusion disease(PCID). Results Cytomegly bearing inclusion appeared in duct epithelium of PCID. DDG9/CCH2 antigen of HCMV was expressed in cytomegly bearing inclusion. K8 was negative in these cytomegly while K18 was intensively positive. Conclusion It is suggested that breaking down of K8 be induced in parotid duct epithelial cells infected by HCMV and that up-regulation of K18 may be a reactive change. Keratin network in simple epithelium functions to impart mechanical integrity to cells.

Objective To explore the effects of the Chinese medicine, modified Erchen decoction, on the serum lipid spectrum of ApoE-/-mice, and to explore its possible anti-atherosclerotic mechanism.Methods Forty-four male 7-8-week old ApoE-/-mice were used in this experiment.ApoE-/-mouse models of atherosclerosis were generated by high-cholesterol diet for 4 weeks.And then, they were given simvastatin or modified Erchen decoction by gavage.The body weight of mice was recorded every week, The mice were sacrificed after treated with the drugs for 8 weeks continuously, and the plasma lipid was determined by enzymatic method.The aortic valves and arches were stained with oil red O to depict atherosclerotic plaques and liver structural changes of the mice were examined by pathology.Results Modified Erchen decoction lowered plasma lipid ( including TCHOL and LDL-C ) significantly ( P<0.01 ) .The body weight was increased in the mice of all groups, but it was more pronounced in the mice of model group than in the blank and modified Erchen decoction groups.The serum CHOL and LDL-C levels were significantly lowered in the modified Erchen decoction group (P<0.01).The area of atherosclerotic plaques in the aortic wall was significantly reduced in the mice of modified Erchen decoction group as shown by oil red O staining.The pathological changes of hepatocytes were less severe and the structure of hepatic lobules was better preserved in the mice of modified Erchen decoction group.Conclusions The Chinese medicin modified Erchen decoction can effectively reduce serum lipids, regulate lipid metabolism, and ameliorate the process of atherosclerosis in ApoE-/-mice.

To compare two enrichment and preservation methods of urinary proteins, stored in polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane (Urimem) or direct freezing, we examined the differences between the two methods in time, space, costs of supplies and electricity, degree of protein degradation and convenience of the sample handling. The urimem method is superior in the storage space, the cost of electricity and the clinical convenience compared to the direct freezing method. However, the direct freezing method is superior in the time and the cost of supplies to the urimem method. The enrichment and preservation of urinary proteins using urimem have more cost-effective benefits compared to those of the direct freezing method.

Objective To explore the changes and effect of functional connectivity(FC) of reward network in chronic heroin addicts(HA) using resting-state fMRl(rs-fMRI). Methods rs-fMRI was performed on 26 chronic heroin addicts(HA group) and 25 matched normal volunteers(control group).The rs-fMRI data were proceeded by usingrs-fMRI(DPARSF) software on Matlab 2009a. Bilateral nucleus accumbens(Nacc) were set as ROIs. Then the mean time series of ROI were compared with other voxels within the brain by the rs-fMRI data analysis toolkit(REST). Intra-and inter-group analysis was performed with single sample and two sample t test respectively.The association of intensity of FC in brain regions and the duration/doses of heroin consumption was investigated. Results In HA group, positiveresting-state FC compared with the ROIs was found in frontal gyms, dorsal striatum, thalamus and pons, while temporal lobe, negative found in part of parietal cortex and occipital cortex, part of dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex and cerebellum. Within control group, positive FC compared with the ROIs was found in frontal gyms, dorsal striatum, thalamus, hippocampal gyrus and pons, occipital cortex, negative FC with ROIs found in part of dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex and cerebellum(P<0.005, voxels>26). Compared with the control group,the FC between the right Nacc and the bilateral calcarinegyrus, left middle occipital gyrus(voxel numbe r=31,28,47;t=3.99, 3.74,3.74;and P<0.005,respectively)were significantly increased in the HA group.The FC between the left Nacc and left fusiform gyrus and right precuneus(voxel number=40,26;t=3.77,3.57;and P<0.005, respectively)were significantly increased, while between the left Nacc and left dorsal medial/lateral prefrontal cortex and bilateral dorsal anterior cingulate(voxel number=98;t=-4.14;and P<0.005)were significantly decreased in the HA group. There was no corrlation between the abnormal FC and the duration/doses of heroin consumption in HA group(P>0.05). Conclusion The abnormal interaction between Nacc and the regions involved in cognitive control and visual spatial attention may contribute to the heroin addiction.

Objective To explore the effect of methadone maintenace treatment (MMT)in functional connectivity (FC)of nucleus accumbens (Nacc)on heroin addicts,and to identify the potential neuromechanism of MMT performing on heroin craving.Methods Craving scores and resting-state fMRI (rs-fMRI)were performed in 37 heroin addicts under MMT and 26 matched heroin addicts (HA) without any treatment.The rs-fMRI data preprocessing was performed by data processing assistant for rs-fMRI (DPARSF)soft-ware based on Matlab 2009a.Bilateral Naccs were set as regions of interesting (ROIs)respectively,and then the mean time series and other voxels within whole brain were analyzed by the rs-fMRI data analysis toolkit (REST).Intra-and inter-group analysis was performed with a single sample t-test and two sample t-test respectively.The partial correlation between the intensity of FC in brain regions showed abnormal FC and the duration/doses of methadone consumption was further investigated by SPSS.Craving scores were tested with two sample t-test.Results Inter-group analysis showed the FC of the right Nacc with left dorsal medial/lateral prefrontal cortex and right dorsal anterior cingulate was significantly increased in the MMT group in comparisonwith HA group,how-ever,it was decreased with right medial orbitofrontal cortex.The FC between the left Nacc and left dorsal medial/lateral prefrontal cortex,right dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex,right dorsal anterior cingulate and left insular cortex was also significantly increased in the MMT group (P <0.005,voxels>26,t=2.91).There were no regions with induced FC.The craving scores of MMT were signifi-cantly lower than those of HA (t = - 2.03,P <0.05 ).There was no significant correlation between the abnormal FC and the duration/doses of methadone consumption in MMT group.Conclusion MMT may influence the function of the nucleus accumbens through cognitive control and motivation/drive circuits,thereby reduce drug craving of heroin addicts.

Objective To explore the changes of cerebral local neuronal spontaneous activity between heroin dependent individuals and normal controls.Methods 3.0 T MRI were used for data acquisition,fMRI data were acquired during resting state from 20 male heroin dependent individuals(HD)and 1 5 matched normal controls(NC),and then the difference of amplitude of low frequency fluctuation (ALFF)between groups were analysised.Results Compared with NC,ALFF in rostral cingulated zone(bilateral anteri-or cingulate cortex ,medial prefrontal cortex )was significantly reduced in HD.Conclusion Dysfunction of resting state in RCZ were observed in HD,which may result in cognitive impairment and plays an important role in the transitions from ideas into behav-ior of relapse in addiction.

Objective:To understand the oral health and frailty status of the elderly in the community in Beijing and analyze the correlation between the two, so as to provide a reference for the frailty management of the elderly in the community.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. Using the multi-stage stratified sampling method, a total of 241 community elderly people in 9 communities in Beijing from July to December 2021 were selected as the research objects. They were investigated using the general information questionnaire, Mini-Nutritional Assessment (MNA) and the Fried Frailty Phenotype. Univariate analysis and ordinal logistic regression analysis were used to explore the influencing factors of frailty among the elderly in the community. A total of 260 questionnaires were distributed in this study and 241 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 92.6%.Results:Among the 241 community elders, 115 (47.7%) were not frail, 92 (38.2%) were pre-frail and 34 (14.1%) were frail. Ordinal Logistic regression analysis showed that the number of teeth of 0-9, 10-19, dry mouth and incomplete or unrepaired restoration of missing teeth were risk factors for frailty among the elderly in the community ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:From the perspective of oral health, this study further analyzes the risk factors of frailty in the elderly in the community. Medical institutions and elderly care institutions at all levels can use oral health status as a screening item for the frailty risk of the elderly in the community, providing new ideas for the prevention and intervention of frailty in the community.
