Research in lymph node imaging has made great progress in recent years. With the increasing in-depth researches and clinical applications of MRI, PET and molecular imaging, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of detecting lymph node metastases have also been improved. Incorporating techniques such as various pulse sequences, contrast enhancement and lymph-node contrast agents has made MRI a superior method for detecting lymph node metastasis of breast cancer in clinical settings.

Objective To explore the differential diagnosis value of DWI ADC for breast lumps,improve the diagnosis of breast cancer specificity.Methods 93 patients with 105 breast tumors were performed with routine MR series and DWI,and the ADC values were measured.Results Lesions ADC values:average ADC value 43 benign lesions in 37 cases was(1.37±0.36)×10-3 mm2/s,the different value between max and min was(0.63±0.19)×10 -3s/mm2.Average ADC value of 62 malignant lesions in 58 patients was(0.90±0.53) × 10 -3 mm2/s,the different value between max and min was(0.91±0.27)×10-3 mm2/s.By statistical analysis,both average ADC values and the max and the min ADC difference value were very significantly different(P＜0.01).Draw diagnosis benign and malignant lesions ROC curves,with ADC values 0.11×10 -3 mm2/s for critical value to judge benign and malignant standard,sensitivity was 67％,specificity was 72％.With 1.0×10- 3 mm2/s for critical value,specificity can raise to 84％,and sensitivity came to 60％.With the maximum and minimum ADC difference value 0.75 × 10-3s/mm2 for critical value,sensitivity was 67％,specificity was 68％.If with 0.80 for critical value,sensitivity was 53％ and specificity 82％.Conclusion The average ADC values of DWI were significant for the identification of benign and malignant lesions.

Objective To explore the related factors that affect the incidence of uterine fibroids to provide a theoretical basis for the clinical diagnosis and prevention.Methods Based on the clinical data selected from June 2014 to July 2016 in pathology of our hospital,159 cases of patients were confirmed with uterine fibroids,a comparative study was employed and the single factor test and the logistic regression analysis were both used to analyze the related risk factors that affecting the incidence of uterine fibroids.Results There were all significant level (P ＜ 0.05) between case and control groups in 40 years to 50 years,the number of abortions (≥2) as well as gynecological diseases,which were the independent factors for the incidence of uterine fibroids.In the present,the regression coefficients of former two factors were 0.186 (P ＜ O.05),and 0.584 (P ＜ 0.05),respectively.The corresponding regression coefficients of breast hyperplasia,vaginitis,cervicitis,endometritis and pelvic inflammatory disease,and other gynecological diseases and gynecological diseases were 0.221 (P ＜ 0.05),O.363 (P ＜ 0.05),O.539 (P ＜ 0.05),0.361 (P ＜ 0.05),and 0338 (P ＜ 0.05),respectively.It suggests that these were independent factors affecting the incidence of uterine fibroids.Conclusions The more the increasing age and the number of abortions,kinds of gynecological diseases infected will increase the risk of patients suffering from uterine fibroids.

Objective To find the chemical elements whose contents are abnormal in the soil of the high prevalence areas of birth defects in Shanxi Province. Methods 131 soil samples were collected from the high and low prevalence areas of birth defects respectively in 2005, the contents of 16 elements were determined with inductively coupled plasma (ICP)machine. The data were analyzed with regression and nonparametric tests. Results The total content of elements in the soil of the high prevalence areas was significantly higher than that of the low prevalence area. Compared with the low prevalence area, in a high prevalence area, the content of Mo, As, Pb, Ni, V and Se in soil was abnormal, Mo, As, Ni and Pb showed a significant relationship to the prevalence rate of birth defects, in another high prevalence area, the content of Sn, Se, Mo, Zn, Sr, Pb, Ni, Fe, V, Ca, Cu, Al, Mg and Na was abnormal, Pb, Mg, Ca, Al and Zn showed a significant relationship to the prevalence rate of birth defects. Conclusion Maybe the abnormal content of Mo, As, Ni, Pb, Mg, Ca, Al and Zn in the soil is one of the risk factors for birth defects.

Objective To develop a high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)method for the determination of active components,sodium ascorbic phosphate,?-arbutin,hydroquinone,niacinamide,brillian-280 and phenol,in the whitening and Freckle-removing cosmetics.Methods Whitening and freckle-removing active components were separated on a C8 column(250 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m)by using triethanolamine solution(11.15g triethanolamine dissolved in 1 L water,pH=7.7 adjusted with 1.75 ml H3PO4)+methanol=70+30 as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.2 ml/min,using diode array detector(DAD)with the detection wavelengh of 273 nm and the column temperature of 25℃.Results The coefficient of variation was less than 4.7% and the recovery rates were 87.3%-112.9%.Conclusion The method introduced in this paper is simple,rapid,accurate and is suitable for the analysis of various cosmetic samples.

Objective To observe the degradation pattern of tubulin in the cardiac muscle and lung tissue of rats after death.Methods 24 young male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 6 groups averagely.After being killed by bleeding,the rats were kept in an artificial climate incubator;the experimental temperature was kept at 20℃ and humidity at 50%.Proteins in cardiac muscle and lung tissue were extracted and tubulin was then examined by Western blot.Thereafter,the semi-quantitative analysis of the Western blot images was performed.Results Tubulin can be detected in the normal cardiac muscle and lung tissue of rats.After 1d postmortem,the tubulin content in these tissues began to decline,and it might still be detected at 7d postmortem,but the tubulin content in lung decreased faster than that in cardiac muscle.A linear relationship between tubulin content in cardiac muscle and lung of rats and the postmortem interval was determined.The linear regression equations and coefficients for integral optic density in relation to PMI were y=-1726.1x+14083 with correlative coefficient r=0.9684 for cardiac muscle and y=-1439.89x+12041 with correlative coefficient r=0.9808 for lung,respectively.Conclusion The level of tubulin in cardiac muscle and lung tissue of rats varied with PMI and the time dependent degradation of this protein was potentially useful for the PMI estimation.
