The purpose of quality control is to form a standard,scientific,and unified control system for PET-CT.The improvement of regulations is the base.The training of technicians is the key.The establishment of radiological protection rules is the assurance.So it is an important link to improve the quality control of PET-CT for better sensitivity and accuracy of PET-CT.

Objective To observe the effect of microprismatic needle scalpel(MPNS) on headache induced by compression of greater occipital nerve or lesser occipital nerve.Methods 95 patients with headache induced by compression of occipital nerve were divided into the treatment group (50 cases, treated with MPNS) and control group (45 cases, treated with carbamazepine).Results In the treatment group, 42 cases were cured, 6 cases were effective, 2 cases were ineffective; while, those in the control group were 16 cases, 21 cases and 8 cases respectively. There was a significant difference between two groups ( P<0.01).Conclusion MPNS has an obvious effect on headache induced by compression of occipital nerves.

Objective To explore the effect of?-3 fish oil fat emulsion on the release of pro-inflam- matory cytokines in patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome(SIRS).Methods Forty patients with SIRS in the intensive care unit(ICU)from June 2006 to June 2007 were randomly divided into routine total parenteral nutrition(TPN)group(group A,20 cases)and?-3 fish oil fat emulsion+TPN treatment group(group B,20 cases).All the patients received treatment of parenteral nutrition with equal nitrogen content and calories.The caloric value given was 83.68 kJ?kg~(-1)?d~(-1),with 0.2 g?kg~(-1)?d~(-1)of nitrogen. Group A patients received routine TPN,and group B patients received TPN with?-3 fish oil fat emulsion 1-2 ml?kg~(-1)?d~(-1),and both regimes lasted for 7 days.The levels of serum tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?),interleukin-1(IL-1)and IL-6 were checked before the treatment,and on the 1st,3rd and 7th day after the beginning of the treatment.The duration in ICU,the incidence of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome(MODS)and the mortality rates in 28 days of the two groups were also assessed.Results Compared with the routine treatment group,the levels of serum TNF-?,IL-1,and IL-6 in the?-3 fish oil fat emulsion+TPN treatment group were lower markedly(P0.05).Conclusion The emulsion of?-3 fish oil fat seems to have a protective effect on patients with SIRS through decreasing the levels of serum TNF-?,IL-1 and IL-6,thus reducing the incidence of MODS,shortening the ICU stay, and increasing the survival rate of serious patients.

OBJECTIVETo reveal the relation between endogenous hormones and the flower bud differentiation in Schisandga chinensis.

METHODTop buds of extremely short branch and axillary buds of long branch in the same plant of S. chinensis were used as material and the contents of endogenous hormones were measured during different periods of the flower bud differentiation with HPLC.

RESULTThe result showed that flower bud differentiation and the formation of female flower were inhibited by high concentration of GA3 and were promoted by high concentration of ABA or ZT. Low ratio of GA3/ABA has the same result.

CONCLUSIONThere was a correlation between endogenous hormones and the flower bud differentiation of S. chinensis.

Objective To validate a new standardized training program for urological surgeons to improve their laparoscopic surgical skills. Methods The laparoscopic surgical training program was carried out by using the traditional mechanical simulators and animal models. Thirty-three trainees participated the urological laparoscopic surgical training program. Initially, the novices were assigned to practise basic laparoscopic skills step by step on the simulator with fixed trocar positions. After a period of basic training, they were allowed to practise on animal models for some particular proce-dures. Results All trainees (33/33, 100.0%) participated were able to perform all basic techniques skillfully and completed laparoscopic anastomosis accurately after the training. The time required for performing the partial nephrectomy, dismembered pyeloplasty and ureteral reimplantation on animal models declined from 64.0±18.4, 127.54±17.5 and 75.84±11.6 min at the beginning to 30.94±3.8, 65.2±7. 5 and 37.7±7.2 min after practicing these procedures 8 times (P<0.01). They could un-derstand the crucial procedures of the laparoseopic surgeries after 6 to 8 special trainings on animal models. Fifteen trainees (15/33, 45.5%) had started to carry out laparoscopic surgeries after-finish- ing the training program. Conclusions Our program enables the participants to improve their techniques in complicated laparoscopic surgeries. The challenging parts of reconstructive laparoscopic surgeries such as laparoscopic dismembered pyeloplasty can be taught by using animal models. This program could be incorpo-rated easily by all urological departments developing a laparoscopie surgical training program.

Objective To explore the activition and polarization of microglia in the epileptic rats induced by lithium chloride-pilocarpine. Methods One hundred male SD rats were randomly divided into five groups: control group and different time points model groups including 1d,3d,7d and 14d. Epilepsy models were established by lithium chloride-pilocarpine intraperitoneal injection. The control group was given the same dosage of normal saline. The morphology change was detected by immunofluorescence,and the expressions of iNOS and Arg-1 were determined by IHC at respective time points. Results Compared the model groups with control group,microglia was activated,synapsis was shorten,volume got bigger,most of them seemed as amoebocyte,the expression of iNOS increased and Arg-1 decreased,especially at 3d.ConclusionThe results from this study indicated that microglia was activated and polarized in epileptic rats induced by pilocarpine.

Objective To investigate the prevalent situations of norovirus infection and genotype distributions in 2014 in Suzhou area .Methods A total of 322 fecal specimens were collected from infants with suspected viral diarrhea at Children′s Hospital of Soochow University in 2014 .Norovirus genogroupⅠ and Ⅱ was detected by reverse transcription (RT )‐polymerase chain reaction (PCR) ,In an effort to identify norovirus genotypes , RNA dependent RNA polymerase region (region A ) and capsid region (region C) segment of some samples positive for norovirus was amplified by RT‐PCR .Comprehensive molecular characteristics of norovirus were obtained by sequence analysis of the same samples in different regions .Results Among 322 fecal specimens ,67 cases were positive for norovirus of G Ⅱ group ,and norovirus of GⅠ group was not found .The genetic fragments of region A was successfully detected in 42 strains .Among all 42 specimens ,there were 35 GⅡ .e strains ,3 GⅡ .7 strains ,2 GⅡ .17 strains and 2 GⅡ .12 strains .The genetic fragments of region C was successfully detected in 53 strains .Among these 53 specimens ,there were 44 GⅡ .4‐2012Sydney strains ,4 GⅡ .6 strains ,2 GⅡ .17 strains ,2 GⅡ .3 strains and 1 GⅡ .2 strain .Conclusions It′s indicated that G Ⅱ .4‐2012Sydney is the main genotype of norovirus causing viral diarrhea in Suzhou ,and other genotypes including the new GⅡ .17 variant ,GⅡ . 7/GⅡ .6 and GⅡ .12/GⅡ .3 recombinant strains also exist .

Objective To probe the effects of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-?B) on cell apoptosis and left ventricular segmental function in acute ischemia repeffusion in dogs.Method Twenty-four dogs were randomly divided into three groups:without left anterior artery (lAD) ligation group (C group),LAD was occluded 30 min following reperfusion 120 minutes in isehemical reperfusion group (IR group),and dogs were administered with PDTC before LAD ligation in ischemical reperfusion plus pyorrole dithitocarbamate group (PDTC group).The left ventricular segmental function was detected by echo cardiography using strain rate anlysis software.EF measured by Simpson's method.Cardiac myocyte apoptosis numbers were determined by terminal deoxynudeotidy transferease-mediated biotinylated deoxyuridine triphosphate nick end labeling (TUNEL).lmmunohistochemistry and western-blot anylysis of NF-?B protein expression.Results NF-?B was obviously expression on injury myocardium of IR group,and increased significantly in contrast to control group (P0.05)Conclusions NF-?B might play an important role in acute myocardial ischemia reperfusion.PDTC reduces myocardial iscbemia/repeffasion injury by preventing expression of factor NF-?B.
