Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of carotid artery ultrasonography,CT angiography (CTA)and digital subtraction angiography (DSA)for carotid artery dissection. Methods The image data of carotid artery ultrasonography,CTA,and DSA of 24 patients with carotid artery dissection were analyzed retrospectively. Results Twenty-four,16,and 21 patients were examined with DSA,CTA,and carotid artery ultrasonography respectively. The detection rates of carotid artery dissection with DSA,CTA, and carotid artery ultrasonography were 95. 8%,75.0%,and 71. 4% respectively. The DSA mostly showed the line-like sign (n=12,50 %). CTA and carotid artery ultrasonography mostly showed the double lumen sign;they were 37. 5%(n=6)and 52. 4%(n=11)respectively. Compared with DSA,the concordance rates of carotid artery ultrasonography and CTA were 66. 7% and 81. 3% respectively. There was no significant difference (Kappa=0. 39,P=0. 08 and Kappa=0. 43,P =0. 22 respectively). The concordance rate of ultrasonography in combination with CTA and DSA reached 87. 5%(n=15,Kappa=0. 67,P =0.047). There was significant difference. Conclusion DSA is a gold standard for the diagnosis of carotid artery dissection,and it is irreplaceable. Carotid artery ultrasonography in combination with CTA can improve the diagnostic rate. Carotid artery ultrasonography can be used as a screening method for carotid artery dissection.

[Objective] To observe the influence of Xiaoyao Powder on the concentration of Ca2+ in hippocampal synaptosome of multi - stress model rats.[Methods] Wistar rats were randomly allocated to five groups: normal control (Group A) , model 1 (Group B), Xiaoyao Powder 1 (Group C), model 2 (Group D), and Xiaoyao Powder 2 (Group E) . All the rats except those of Group A were replicated to chronic multi-stress models. At the meantime, Groups C andE were given the decoction of Xiaoyao Powder, 1.06g each for 21 days and 42 days respectively. Groups A, B and D were administered by gavage the equal amount of normal saline. After the administration, the hippocampal homogenate was taken to detect the concentration of hippocampal synaptic Ca2+ by fluorimetry. [Results] Compared with Group A, the concentration of Ca2+ in hippocampal synaptosome of Groups B and C was increased, having significant difference ( P

Objective To discuss the value of high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HR-MRI) in the etiological diagnosis of patients with head and neck artery occlusion.Methods From December 2015 to February 2017,25 consecutive patients with acute head and neck artery occlusion in Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University were enrolled prospectively.The 32-channel head-neck combined coils were used to conduct head-neck integrated HR-MRI.The characteristics of proximal vascular wall of the occluded vascular segments and the signal features of thrombi in the middle and distal segments of occlusion were analyzed.The evaluation of the occlusive etiology was performed by two neurologists according to the clinical history,laboratory examinations,and imaging examinations of the patients,and the accuracy of conventional lumen imaging and conventional lumen imaging combined with HR-MRI in etiological classification were compared.Results Twenty-five patients with acute head and neck artery occlusion completed HR-MRI examinations.A total of 31 segments of the occluded vessels were diagnosed,and 21 of these were diagnosed with the conventional luminal imaging,30 were diagnosed with the conventional luminal imaging+HR-MRI,including 24 segments of atherosclerotic occlusion (n=19),4 segments of arterial dissecting occlusion (n=4),and 3 segments of arteritis occlusion (n=2).(2) In patients with atherosclerotic occlusion,the eccentric thickening was observed in the proximal wall of occlusive segment;the typical double-lumen or crescent-shaped hyperintense hematoma were observed in occlusive arterial dissection;long-segment annular thickening and enhancement were observed in the segment of arteritis occlusion.(3) The accuracy of the cause classification diagnosis of conventional luminal imaging and conventional luminal imaging+HR-MRI were 67.7% (21/31) and 96.8% (30/31) respectively (P<0.01).Conclusions Compared with the luminal imaging,the head and neck combined HR-MRI can reveal the arterial wall characteristics of the initial segment of occlusion.It has certain advantages in the interpretation of the causes,such as atherosclerosis,arterial dissection and arteritis.

Objective To observe the effects of kidney-tonifying therapy on spatial learning, memory abilities and ultrastructure of hippocampal dentate gyrus ( DG ) cells of kidney deficiency rats induced by sexual intemperance. Methods SD rats with low reproductive capacity were caused by continuously mating for 6 months, and then were randomly divided into 5 groups, namely model group, low- and high-dose of Liuwei Dihuang pills (LDP) groups (in the dosage of 4.8, 9.6 g·kg-1·d-1), low-and high-dose of Jingui Shenqi pills (JSP) group (in the dosage of 5.2, 10.4 g·kg-1·d-1), 8 rats in each group. Except the model group, the other groups were respectively given with the corresponding medication. SD rats aged 2 months served as the normal control group. After treatment for 30 continuous days, the learning and memory abilities of rats were examined by Morris Water Maze. The cell ultra structure of hippocampal dentate gyrus was observed by transmission electron microscopy. Results The results of the place navigation test of Morris water maze showed that the escape latency of rats was prolonged obviously in the model group compared with that of the normal control group (P<0.01), and the escape latency of rats in the medication groups was shorter than the kidney deficiency model group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The results of spatial probe test showed that the residence time in the former hidden platform quadrant and its surrounding area was significantly shortened in the model group compared with that of the normal control group ( P<0.01) , but was prolonged after medication of high-dose JSP ( P<0.05 or P<0.01 compared with that of the model group). Under the electron microscope, the cell ultra structure lesions of hippocampal dentate gyrus were much relieved in the high-dose LDP group, and high-dose JSP group as compared with those of the model group. Conclusion ( 1) Long-term sexual intemperance can impair spatial learning and memory abilities and causes the cell ultra structure lesions of hippocampal dentate gyrus of rats. (2) The kidney-tonifying therapy can significantly alleviate the spatial learning and memory disturbance and the cell ultra structure lesions of hippocampal dentate gyrus induced by sexual intemperance. ( 3) There are not significant differences between the two kidney-tonifying therapies in improving spatial learning and relieving cell ultra structure lesions. The effect of JSP on improving spatial memory abilities is better than that of LDP.

Objective To construct lentivirus vectors carrying 16 short hairpin RNA (shRNA) expression cassettes targeting histone acetyltransferases and provide a powerful research approach to explore the mechanism of epigenetic genes in regulating hepatitis B virus (HBV).Methods Following the rule of short shRNA primer design,eight-pair primers (A ~ H )for each gene,which had stable interfering efficiency,were designed.The annealed primers were connected to the empty lentiviral vectors of shRNA for transformation.In order to confirm the positive clones,clones were analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR ).Then, qualified plasmids were verified by enzyme digestion technology.Four shRNA lentivirus plasmids against the same gene were mixed to build lentivirus respectively.After the virus transfected into 293T cells for 48 and 72 hours,supernatants were collected to infect HepG2.2.15 cells.The percentage of fluorescent cells were observed and assessed by microscope 72 hours after infection.Results One hundred and twenty-eight lentiviral vectors of RNA interference (RNAi)library were constructed against 16 histone acetyltransferases and more than 80% of HepG2.2.15 cells were infected with lentivirus 72 hours after infection.Conclusions Sixteen shRNA lentivirus vectors against histone acetyltransferase are successfully constructed.Thus,a solid foundation for the study of the effect of human histone deacetylase on HBV replication is established.
