Objective To explore the feasibility to diagnose ureterolithiasis by 16-multidetector spiral computed tomography (16-MDCT) at different low doses based on body mass index (BMI).Methods A total of one hundred patients from 2009 Sep to 2010 Feb suspected of ureterolithiasis were randomly divided into 2 equal groups undergoing 16-MDCT at standard-dose (120 kV, 240 mA) or lowdose (120, 80, and 50 mA, respectively) based on the body mass index (BMI).Taking the clinical diagnosis as the standard, the sensitivity level, specificity level, and positive predictive value of these groups were compared.Results The dose length product ( DLP ) of the low-dose CT group and the average CT dose index (CTDIvol ) were 18.95 and 6.65 mGy, respectively.There was significant difference between the two groups ( t = 31.78, P ＜ 0.01 ).The sensitivity level, specificity level, and positive predictive value of the low-dose group were 97.1% , 94.0% , and 94.3% , respectively, all not significantly different from those of the standard-dose groups (97.3% , 96.0% , and 97.3% , respectively,P ＞0.05).Conclusions It is feasible to diagnose ureterolithiasis by low-dose 16-MDCT based on BMI with the obtained image quality meeting the clinical diagnostic requirements.

Objective To investigate the effects of Glibenclamide on reduction of secondary damage after acute spinal cord injury in rats.Methods Ninety rats were randomly divided into control group (laminectomy alone),spinal cord injury group(injury group),and treatment group(treated with Glibenclamide after spinal cord injury),with 30 rats in each group.The pathological morphology changes of injured spinal cord were observed by HE staining and electron microscope.The expressions of sulfonylurea receptor 1 (SUR1)were detected by immunohistochemical method at 45 min,6 h,24 h,3 d and 7 d after spinal cord injury,and IPP 6.0 software were used for quantitative analysis.The function recoveries of the hind limbs of rats were evaluated by BBB score.The blood sugar level was detected quantitatively.Results HE staining showed that tissue bleeding and microglia proliferation getting severe with time after spinal cord injury.Compared to the injury group,tissue bleeding,microglia proliferation and inflammatory cell invasion was less severe in treatment group.Showed by electron microscope,inflammatory cell invasion,myelin sheath layer structure damage and mitochondrial swelling were significantly reduced after Glibenclamide treatment.Detected by immunohistochemical staining,the expressions of SUR1 at all time points after injury,except for 45 min that there were no SUR1 expressions in all groups,were much weaker in the treatment group than in the injury group.The SUR1 expression reached the peak at 24 h after injury in injury group,and decreased gradually with time.Significant differences were found in the SUR1 expression among three groups by oneway ANOVE.The BBB scores of treatment group were significant higher than that of injury group.The blood sugar slightly decreased in the treatment group,while no significant difference was found among three groups.Conclusion Glibenclamide can significant reduced the secondary damage after acute spinal cord injury.The protection of Glibenclamide after spinal cord injury may relate to its suppression of SUR1.

By using the OEC 9600 mobile digital imaging system, 14 coronary stents were successfully implanted in all 13 cases of coronary heart disease. After the procedure,immediate satisfactory angiographic results were obtained without residual stenosis, and chest pain was relieved or disappeared in all cases. No major complications occurred except for groin hematoma in one case,these results suggest that intracoro-nary stenting is a safe and effective management for coronary heart disease.

Objective To explore the feasibility and safety of primary coronary stenting in the patients with coronary heart disease Methods From march 1997 to august 1999, 80 cases with 90 of lesions were selected for primary coronary stenting without the predilation procedure Their efficacy and success rate were analysed Results We smoothly pushed 85 stents into the lesion in the 80 patients, the success rate of primary coronary stenting was 94% with shorter duration of the procedure and lower cost In 3 lesions the stent did not cross the lesion and was successfully retrieved in the guiding catheter, in 1 cases the stent was lost in the systemic circulation with no further complications Conclusions Primary coronary stenting without predilation was safe and feasible in selected patients

BACKGROUND:Gene therapy is the direction of spinal cord injury(SCI) therapy,the key of which is construction of targeting gene and vector. OBJECTIVE:To construct the recombinant adenovirus vector carrying human brain-derived neurotrophic factor(hBDNF) marked enhanced green fluorescent protein(EGFP). DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:A single sample observation was completed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from September 2007 to June 2008. MATERIALS:Competent E. coli DH-5? was obtained from the American Stratagene Company. Plasmid pDC316-hBDNF,pDC316-mCMV-EGFP,pBHGlox_E1,3Cre and package system AdMax and 293 package cell strain were purchased from the Canadian Mixcrobix-Biosystems Company. METHODS:The hBDNF gene was constructed by PCR with plasmid pDC316-BDNF as template. With enzyme digestion,the hBDNF gene was inserted into the vector pDC316-mCMV-EGFP and the shuttle plasmid pDC316-hBDNF-mCMV-EGFP was constructed,which was cotransfected with the adenovirus skeleton plasmid pBHGlox_E1,3Cre into 293 cells to obtain the produced replication defective recombinant adenovirus vector Ad-hBDNF-EGFP. The recombinant adenovirus was propagated by repeat infection of 293 cells and purified by ion exchange method,then the virus particles were counted and the purity and titer were determined. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:①PCR identification of plasmid pDC316-hBDNF. ②Construction and identification of the shuttle plasmid pDC316-hBDNF-mCMV-EGFP. ③Packing,amplification and purification of recombinant adenovirus vector Ad-hBDNF-EGFP. ④PCR identification of the recombinant adenovirus. ⑤Titer of recombinant adenovirus. RESULTS:PCR amplification,restriction analysis and sequencing identified that both recombinant shuttle plasmid pDC316-hBDNF-mCMV-EGFP and recombinant adenovirus vector Ad-hBDNF-EGFP were correctly constructed. After amplification and purification,the virus particle count,A260/A280 and titer of recombinant adenovirus were 2.4?1011 VP/mL,2.0 and 0.8?1010 CCID50/mL,respectively.
