Objective To investigate the usefulness of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC)value and its coefficient variance (CV) in differentiating the cerebellopontine angle tumors.Methods 5 1 cases of cerebellopontine angle tumors comfirmed by surgery were enrolled ,in which cerebral enhanced MRI were obtained MRI data of different type of tumors were analyzed.ADC value and its CV of tumors were calculated.Results There were 24 cases of schwannoma,14 cases meningioma,7 cases metastases,4 cases epider-moid cyst and 2 cases dermoid cyst.There were obvious differences on ADC value’s CV among the schwannoma,meningioma and metastases (t=-1.31,P =0.03;t=-0.56,P =0.04;t =0.07,P =0.04).ADC value of schwannoma was only significant higher than that of meningioma (t=-2.5,P =0.04).Conclusion In combination with MRI,ADC value and its CV have a higher value in differential diagnosis of cerebellopontine angle tumors.

Objective To study the validity of furosemide test for predicting the hematoma enlargement in pa- tients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.Methods Four hundred fifty-one patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage were diagnosed using CT after oneset of the disease and 24 h reexamined 24 h after.The incidence of enlarged hematoma was evaluated by comparison the baseline and 24 h CT scanning.Furosemide(20 mg iv)was ad- ministered and blood pressure was measured 30 min after furosemide.Results The decreasing level of MAP after furosemide was significantly inversely related with incidence rate of hematoma enlargement{ r=-0.94,t=58.4,P 10 mmHg as the cut-off point,with the rate of hematoma enlargement as being 6.4 %,MAP decreased≤10 mmHg was associated with increases in prevalence of hematome to 33.2 %(?~2=51.82, P

Objective To investigate the relationship between carotid atherosclerosis(CAS)plaque and its related factors and cerebral infarction(CI).Methods The 91 patients with CI were detected by Color Doppler and the levels of plasma lipid,blood glucose(BG)and fibrinogen(Fbg)were evaluated,and compared with normal control(NC)group.Results(1)Compare with NC group,the IMT,prevalence of CAS plaque,the rates of soft plaque in CI group were significantly higher(all P

Objective To compare the results of surgical treatment of cardiac carcinoma through left thoracic approach and abdominal approach.Methods After finished cardiac carcinoma resection and gastroesophagus anastomosis in thorax through left thoracic approach,standard D2 regional lymph nodes dissection or/and combined pancreas and spleen resection were performed immediately through abdominal approach in 19 patients.Two surgical specimens were examined individually.Results 122 lymph nodes were founded in the abdominal surgical specimens,in which 23 were metastasis lymph nodes founded in 7 patients (7/19,37 %).Conclusion Left thoracotomy alone can no achieve complete resection for advanced gastric cardiac carcinoma.It should be treated through the combined abdominal and thoracic approach.

0.05).It could also decrease the times of wet manure induced by folia sennae,while it was of no effect on diarrhea induced by castor oil. CONCLUSION: Volatile oil from A.longiligulare T.L.Wu has anti-inflammation,analgesic and anti-diarrhea effect related to the cure for ulcerative colitis.

AIM: To investigate antioxidative and antinitrosative effects of volatile oil from A.longiligulare T.L.Wu on dextran sulfate sodium(DSS)-induced ulcerative colitis mice. METHODS: Balb/c mice were fed with 4% DSS solution for 7 d to induce ulcerative colitis.Using biochemical method,the activity of antioxidative enzyme SOD,MDA and NO were determined in normal,model,SASP and three mouse's groups with low,moderate and high volatile oil from A.longiligulare T.L.Wu respectively.At the same time,the activity of iNOS was also measured by immunohistopathology. RESULTS: The concentration of MDA and NO were reduced and SOD increased significantly in high-and moderate-volatile oil groups compared with those in the model group.The activity of iNOS was reduced significantly in high-and moderate-volatile oil groups compared with those in the model group.The results demonstrated that the expression of iNOS was significantly inhibited in DSSinduced ulcerative colitis mice after being treated with high or moderate-dosage volatile oil. CONCLUSION: Volatile oil from A.longiligulare T.L.Wu has antioxidative and antinitrosative effects which may be one of the mechanism for treating UC.

Objective To discuss the quantitative diagnosis of stagnation of Qi and blood stasis syndrome in chronic prostatitis. To make diagnosis chart and ensure diagnosis threshold level which provide statistics evidence for syndrome differentiation of TCM. Methods By the statistical ways, 168 cases of chronic prostatitis belong to stagnation of Qi blood and stasis syndrome and 198 cases of non-stagnation of Qi and blood stasis syndrome were investigated. To make a diagnosis chart and ensure diagnosis threshold level by applying the method of the maximum likelihood discriminatory analysis. Results The quantitative diagnosis chart was made and diagnosis threshold level was 26. According to the retrospective and prospective test, its sensitivity, especially degree, coincidence rate, error rate and positive likelihood ratio were 94.64%, 88.89%, 91.53%, 8.47%, 8.52 and 94.28%, 90.32%, 92.42%, 7.58%, 9.74. Conclusion The indexes of the quantitative diagnosis have good objectivity. According to the retrospective and prospective test, the diagnosis chart was proved to be practical.

A comparative study on the glycolic acid oxidase (GO) of the domestic Spirulina(Arthrospira) platensis (S_(1)) from alkaline lake in Erdos Plateau and the imported S. (A.) platensis (S_(2)) and S. (A.) maxima (S_(3)) as well is made with colorimetric method. The results show that activity of GO (25℃, pH 8.0) of S_(1), S_(2 )and S_(3) is 70.9 U/gFW, 59.6 U/gFW and 80.9 U/gFW respectively; the GO's optimum temperature of S_(1)、S_(2) and S_(3 )is 30℃; the GO's optimum pH value of S_(1 )is 8.6,while that of S_(2 ) 8.2 and that of S_(3) 8.4; the GO of S_(1 )is stable from 0℃ to 35℃ and from pH 7.6 to pH 10.0, while that of S_(2) from 0℃ to 30℃ and from pH 8.0 to pH 9.0 and that of S_(3) from 0℃ to 35℃ and from pH 8.0 to pH 8.6. Adaptive range of S_(1) GO for temperature and pH is wider, and activity at low and high temperature and under strong acidand alkali conditions is higher than that of the imported species.
