Objective:To study the PDT effects on culturing endothelial cell in vitro under the differens content of CPD 4. Methods: According to the existing techniques obtaining prime umbilical vein endothelial cell in 24 well culturing plate,10 5/well.Add 1640 medium mixed with different final concentration of CPD 4 individuallly and incubate for 1h. Then shine them with 630～640 nm red light. Observe the morphological changes of EC. After PDT 6 h,measure the contents of Prostaglandin F 1?(PGF 1?) and and LDH in the culturing medium and the percentage of the residual cell. Results:With the concentration of CPD 4 increasing, the damage degree of EC aggravates. There was emergence of EC contracting ,falling off , cytoplasmic swelling,floating and dying. The contents of PGF 1? and LDH were increasing and the percentage of residual cell decreases simultaneously. There was statistical significance between the five groups. Conclusion:The effect of PDT is direct.The effectiveness has two characteristic: ①CPD 4 induced PDT has direct photosensitised damage to EC. There exists CPD 4 dose dependence.②The PDT target of EC is membrane and cytoplasma organelle. The damage is lethal and irreversible.

To get precise and complete details, the contrast in different images is needed in medical diagnosis and computer assisted treatment. The image registration is the basis of contrast, but the regular rigid registration does not satisfy the clinic requirements. A non-rigid medical image registration method based on mutual information and thin-plate spline was present. Firstly, registering two images globally based on mutual information; secondly, dividing reference image and global-registered image into blocks and registering them; then getting the thin-plate spline transformation according to the shift of blocks' center; finally, applying the transformation to the global-registered image. The results show that the method is more precise than the global rigid registration based on mutual information and it reduces the complexity of getting control points and satisfy the clinic requirements better by getting control points of the thin-plate transformation automatically.

Objective To study the value of plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels on the cardiac function evaluation in children with left-right shunt congenital heart disease (CHD).Methods Thirtytwo children with left-right shunt CHD were selected and divided into right ventricular group (14 cases) and left ventricular group (18 cases) according to the heart load capacity types.Twenty healthy children were selected as control group.Then plasma BNP levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method and the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD),right ventricular end-diastolic diameter (RVEDD),pulmonary blood flow (Qp)/systemic blood flow ratio(Qs) and left heart Tei index were determined by echocardiography and compared.Results The plasma BNP levels,LVEDD,RVEDD,Qp/Qs and left heart Tei index were (60.21 ± 26.78) rng/L,(35.71 ± 6.98) mm,(25.04 ± 5.52) mm,1.74 ± 0.24,0.34 ± 0.12 in right ventricular group.The plasma BNP levels,LVEDD,RVEDD,Qp/Qs and left heart Tei index were (64.57 ± 25.18) ng/L,(45.27 ± 7.26) mm,(12.34 ± 2.18) mm,1.78 ± 0.19,0.36 ± 0.11 in left ventricular group.The plasma BNP levels,LVEDD,RVEDD,Qp/Qs and left heart Tei index were (33.42 ± 9.46) ng/L,(32.31 ± 4.87) mm,(10.98 ± 1.60) mm,0.92 ± 0.11,0.28 ± 0.08 in control group.The plasma BNP levels,LVEDD,RVEDD,Qp/Qs and left heart Tei index in right ventricular group and left ventricular group were higher than those in control group,and there were significant differences (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in LVEF among three groups (P ＞ 0.05).The plasma BNP levels in right ventricular group had positive correlation with RVEDD (r =0.634,P ＜ 0.05),Qp/Qs (r =0.721,P ＜ 0.05) and left heart Tei index (r =0.647,P ＜ 0.05).The plasma BNP levels in left ventricular group had postive correlation with LVEDD (r =0.547,P ＜ 0.05),Qp/Qs(r =0.794,P ＜ 0.05) and left heart Tei index (r =0.745,P ＜ 0.05).There was no correlation between the plasma BNP levels and LVEF in right ventricular group and left ventricular group.Conclusion The plasma BNP levels determination helps the early cardiac function evaluation of left-right shunt CHD,and combined with echocardiography can accurately reflect the early cardiac function of the left-right shunt CHD,which can provide objective basis for the clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To investigate the left atrium (LA) function and structure changes in the paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) patients after catheter ablation using tissue Doppler imaging. Methods After complete pul-monary vein, radiofrequency ablation guided by Ensite NavX System, LA systolic function and LA diameter, volume, mean mitral gradient and mitral annulus early and advanced diastolic peak velocity were assessed in 32 cases of par-oxysmal AF patients,which were compared with age-matched controls before and after 24 hours, 1 week, 1 month) AF ablation. Results AF did not occur again in 32 AF paroxysmal patients after isolation. LA diameter and volume in AF groups before ablation were larger than controls(P<0.01), which were also larger 24 hours after ablation than before (P>0.05 ), but LA volume was larger than before (P<0.05), and decreased in I week after ablation (P< 0.05), but had no significant difference compared with controls in 1 month(P>0.05 ) ;mitral annulus advanced di-astolic peak velocity decreased in AF groups before ablation (P<0.01 )and was lower than that 24 hours after cathe-ter ablation (P<0.05 ), but increased after 1 week (P<0.05 or P <0.01 ), and had no significance after 1 month. Conclusion Catheter ablation is the effective way to manage AF because LA is distended and atrial systolic func-tion is reduced within 24 hours after procedure, then gradually increased in a week and will nearly recover to that be-fore procedure in a month, which may be correlated with LA repair, implicating that postprocedural thromboembollc risk and procedure injury should be taken into consideration.

Objective Parotidectomy and superficial parotidectomy are traditional surgical treatment to the malignant parotid gland tumour although they have many defects.The aim of this study was to analyze the feasibility of individualized treatment to patient according to tumor`s size and TNM stage. Methods Thirty three patients with low grade malignant parotid gland tumours from Dec 2005 to Dec 2010 were recruited in the present study.All the patients received the territorial surgical resection firstly.Then, 9 cases re-ceived the expanded territorial surgical resection (1 case had recurrent probability, accepted adjuvant radiotherapy).Sixteen cases un-derwent parotidectomy with complete tumor resection ( 2 case had envelope invasion, accepted adjuvant radiotherapy) .Eight cases ac-cepted adjuvant radiotherapy(4 cases on T1 and T2 stage preserved facial nerve although the nerves adhering to tumors, and other 4 ca-ses on T4a stage accepted facial nerve excision ) . Results Follow up ranged from 3.5 to 8.5 years and no recurrences were docu-mented.9 patients who accepted territorial surgical resection showed fine facial symmetry.8 cases of them without adjuvant radiotherapy had good salivary secretion.Nine cases of other 24 patients showed temporary facial nerve injury and recovered within 1 to 4 months. Four cases with facial nerve excision showed permanental facial paralysis. Conclusion To protect the function of parotid gland to the greatest extent, the small low grade malignant parotid gland tumors without facial nerve invasion could have territorial surgical resection. Combined territorial surgical resection with postoperative adjuvant radiation therapy is useful to avoid the tumors recurrence and en-croachment of facial nerve to protect the facial nerve function.
