Chinese Journal of Medical Imaging Technology 2017;33(8):1153-1157
Objective To investigate the amide proton transfer (APT) values in basal ganglia of neonatal piglet hypoxicischemic brain injury (HIBI) model using MR APT imaging.Methods Totally 35 healthy neonatal piglets were selected.There were 5 piglets underwent sham-operation in control group and 30 piglets used to established HIBI models in HIBI group.According to the time interval between APT imaging and the establishment of HIBI model,the piglets in HIBI group were divided into 0-<2 h,2-<6 h,6-<12 h,12-<24 h,24-<48 h and 48-<72 h subgroups.APT imaging was performed on all piglets.The APT value of basal ganglia between control group and all the subgroups in HIBI group were compared.Results After HIBI occurred,the APT values immediately decreased in 0-2 h,and then increased gradually.In 24 h after HIBI,the APT values were mainly returned to the level of control group,then continuously increased.The APT value in control group and 0-<2 h,2 <6 h,6 <12 h,12-<24 h,24-<48 h,48-<72 h subgroups in HIBI group were 0.52 ± 0.09,-0.35 ± 0.08,-0.02 ± 0.14,0.28± 0.04,0.46 ± 0.11,0.80 ± 0.11,1.24 ± 0.18,respectively.The APT values between control group and each subgroups in HIBI group had significant differences (all P<0.01) except for 12-<24 h subgroup (P=0.68).Conclusion The APT value decreased firstly and then increased after HIBI in neonatal piglet.APT imaging can provide a non-invasive molecular MR method to evaluate the pathophysiological changes of HIBI.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of various surface treatments with different water bath time and thermocycling on the shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets to the feldspathic porcelain surfaces.Methods:Four surface conditioned methods were applied on 128 disc-shaped porcelain specimens.Metal or ceramic brackets were bonded onto each treated porcelain disc with light-cured resin.The samples were randomly assigned and bathed in 37 ℃ water 1 day or 7 days respectively,and thermocycled 500 times from 5 ℃ to 55 ℃.The shearing strengths were measured and bond failure sites were classified according to the adhesive remnant index system.The treated porcelain surfaces were examined with scanning electronic microscopy.Results:Almost the same effects of the four conditionings on the two types of brackets were obtained.All groups achieved adequate bond strengths to withstand the application of orthodontic forces.Conclusion:The optimal method for orthodontic brackets bonding to feldspathic porcelain is to apply orthophosphoric acid combined with silane.

Objective: Our aim was to study the relationship between nitric oxide and ovarian neoplasm. The concentrationg of nitrite /nitrate (NO-2/NO-3),glutathione(GSH), and the activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD) were detected in ovarian tissues.Methods:A modified copper-coated cadium reduction method was used to detect NO-2/NO-3. Dithio-bis-nitrobenzoic acid (DTNB) method was used to detect the GSH concentration. The activity of SOD was measured by an ultramicroanalytic and rapid assay. All the data were obtained from 21 patients with ovarian neoplasm(10 with benign ovarian neoplasms,and 11 with ovarian carcinomas). This paper is concerned with the analysis of matched case-control studies. The carcinoma tissues and normal ovarian tissues were obtained from the same patient. We performed Paired-Samples t test to determine whether the NO-2/NO-3,GSH and the activity of SOD in carcinomas and normal ovarian tissues have significantly difference. Results:No significant difference for the concentration of NO-2/NO-3,GSH and activity of SOD was shown in the normal ovarian tissues and neoplasm tissues of benign neoplasm . The concentrations of GSH and activity of SOD in normal ovarian tissues were significantly higher than ovarian carcinomas(P<0.05). No significant difference of concentration of NO-2/NO-3 was shown in normal ovary and ovarian carcinomas. In the normal tissues of all patients, NO-2/NO-3 was positively correlated with GSH and SOD. Glutathione was positively correlated with SOD. In the ovarian neoplasms, there was no significant correlation between NO-2/NO-3 and GSH, NO-2/NO-3 and SOD,GSH and SOD.Conclusion: Nitric oxide and the other matters which attend the course of its metastasis may closely related to ovary neoplasms.

Recombinant antibodies have become the major growth trends in biotech industry following their success on therapeutic application and good revenue. But the low level of mammalian expression and laggard fermentation process constrained the development of antibody industry in China. The global advances of antibody industry were reviewed, compared the respective advantage between dihydrofolate reductase and glutamine synthetase expression system, continuous perfusion and fed-batch processes were compared. Finally, based on the knowledge and experience of antibody expression and fermentation, the suitable strategy of antibody industrialization, e.g. the fermentation model and scale, should depend on the comprehensive consideration of entrepreneur for the productivity, manufacturing capacity and market revenue. It may be a wise choice to use glutamine synthetase expression system and continuous perfusion process for the need of Chinese antibody industrialization.

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is the second most common primary hepatobiliary cancer after hepatocellular carci-noma (HCC). Surgical resection is the main curative treatment for ICC. Patients with ICC exhibit poorer prognosis compared with those with HCC. A comprehensive individualized prognostic system must be developed based on specific factors of patients. Several distinct prognostic staging systems have been proposed for patients with ICC treated by surgery. These systems include six staging systems, two scoring systems, and three prognostic nomograms. However, all of these prognostic systems are based on data from patients un-dergoing surgery resection and have not been validated in patients receiving other therapies. In this review, we will discuss the prog-nostic accuracy and applicability of current available prognostic systems and provide directions for future investigations.

Objective Investigation and analysis of intelligence and psychomotor function in children born after implementingt universal salt iodization(USI). Methods Historical serious illness areas of water iodine below 10μg/L were selected as study sites, water iodine in 50 - 100 μg/L in the historical non-endemic areas were as control points in Henan, 2008. Cluster sampling was used to select children aged 6 - 15 years as observing subjects,IQ were measured with CRT- Man Test(CRT-C2). A "Tianjin Medical psychomotor test battery" (JPB) was carry out to test psychomotor function. Results In IDD regions 230 children were surveyed post-USI and 1284 children preUSI. The IQs post and pre USI were 99.3 and 99.9, respectively, and the proportion of IQ ≤69 were 2.17%(6/230) and 2.80%(36/1284), respectively. In non-IDD regions 650 children were surveyed post-USI and 2079children pre-USI. The IQs post and pre USI were 95.3 and 93.8, respectively, and the proportion of IQ ≤ 69 were 2.31%(15/650) and 3.37%(70/2079), respectively. In IDD regions, the abnormal rate of T scores and damage index post USI were 3.6%(2/56), 5.3%(3/56), respectively, significantly lower than pre USI [18.1%(29/160),18.1%(29/160), x2 = 7.54, 6.86, all P < 0.01]. Conclusions USI could increase the IQs of children and decrease the positive rate of JPB, and significantly improve the quality of whole nation and persistently eliminating IDD.
