Hyperuricemia mice model was established with uricase inhibitor (potassium oxonate) and uric acids in serum were observed. Polydatin (5, 10, 20 mg · kg(-1)) and benzbromarone (16.7 mg · kg(-1)) were given ig for 7 d in mice. Kidney tissues were used to detect gene contents ofurate anion transporter 1 (URAT1), organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1) and organic anion transporter 3 (OAT3) by real-time-PCR. The results showed that polydatin and benzbromarone can significantly reduce uric acid in blood of hyperuricemia mice (P < 0.05), compared with the model group. URAT1, OAT1 and OAT3 contents of the kidney in hyperuricemia mice changed significantly (P < 0.05), compared with the blank group. Polydatin can significantly inhibit the changing trends in these genes induced by potassium oxonate in a dose-dependent manner, the difference was significant (P < 0.05), compared with the model group. Those indicated that polysatin could reduce the level of the serum uric acid through promoting uric acid excretion.

Purpose To investigate the second generation dual source CT low tube voltage (100 kV) combined with sonogram-affirmed iterative reconstruction (SAFIRE) in assessing coronary artery stents. Materials and Methods One hundred and fifty-six patients underwent CT coronary angiography after implanted coronary artery stents. Among all the patients, 86 cases were performed with 100 kV combined with SAFIRE, and 70 cases with 120 kV combined with filtered back projection reconstruction (FBP). Mean CT values, image noise, SNR, SAIR, image quality scores, stents detecting and radiation dose of aortic root, inner-stent, and the coronary artery proximal to the stent were compared. Results The mean CT value of aortic root, inner-stent, and the coronary artery proximal to the stent of 100 kV group was higher than that of 120 kV group (t=2.75, 11.77 and 3.19, P<0.05), while image noise and SAIR of 100 kV group were lower than those of 120 kV group (t=-2.53 and -9.51, P<0.05). SNR of aortic root, inner-stent, and the coronary artery proximal to the stent was not statistically different between the two groups (t= -1.34, -0.95 and 1.67, P>0.05). There was no statistic difference of image quality score between the two groups (t= -0.203, P>0.05). Totally there were 243 stents detected, including 67 of right coronary artery, 123 of left anterior descending, 36 of left circumflex, and 17 of other branches. Stent length ranged 3.8 to 98.7 mm and averaged (27.5±16.4) mm. The CTDIvol, DLP and ED of 100 kV group were lower than those of 120 kV group (t= -11.03, -9.41 and -9.41, P<0.05). The effective dosage reduced about 51.5% in 100 kV group when compared with that of 120 kV group. Conclusion The second generation dual source CT low tube voltage (100 kV) combined with SAFIRE in assessing coronary artery stent could meet the diagnostic requirement and reduce the radiation dosage, without increasing image noise and beam hardening artifacts.

PurposeTo analyze the urinary stone chemical composition using dual source CT (DSCT) dual energy imaging.Materials and MethodsNinety-seven stone samples with known chemical composition were placed in fresh swine kidneys and examined with DSCT dual energy scan, including 55 calcium oxalate stones, 13 hydroxyapatite stones, 9 uric acid stones, 4 cystine stones, 2 struvite stones and 14 mixed stones. The mean attenuation values and dual energy index (DEI) were measured at 80 kV and 140 kV. The stone composition was analyzed to determine the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy.ResultsDual energy analysis showed 59 calcium oxalate stones, 11 hydroxyapatite stones, 9 uric acid stones, 4 cystine stones and 14 mixed stones. 2 hydroxyapatite stones were erroneously marked as calcium oxalate stones and 2 struvite stones as calcium oxalate stones. The accuracy was 95.88% (93/97). The difference CT value at 80 kV and 140 kV and DEI value were statistically significant (P<0.05). The sensitivity for detecting calcium oxalate stones, hydroxyapatite stones, uric acid stones and cysteine stones were 100.00%, 84.60%, 100.00% and 100.00%, respectively; with specificity of 85.70%, 100.00%, 100.00% and 100.00%, respectively; and the accuracy were 95.18%, 97.59%, 100.00% and 100.00%, respectively.ConclusionDSCT dual energy imaging accurately analyzes the chemical composition of urinary stone in vitro, which provides important clinical value in analyzing the urinary stonesin vivo.

Objective To compare the dosimetric difference between RapidArc and fixed gantry angle dynamic intensity modulated radiotherapy (dIMRT) in developing the pre-operative radiotherapy for rectal cancer patients.Methods Two techniques,RapidArc and dIMRT,were used respectively to develop the synchronous intensity modulated plans for 10 stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ rectal cancer patients at the dose of gross tumor volume (GTV) of 50.6 Gy divided into 22 fractions and planning target volume (PTV) of 41.8 Gy divided into 22 fractions.Both plans satisfied the condition of 95% of PTV covered by 41.8 Gy.The dose-volume histogram data,isodose distribution,monitor units,and treatment time were compared.Results The two kinds of dose volume histogram (DVH) developed by these two techniques were almost the same.The conformal indexes of GTV and PTV by RapidArc were better than those by dIMRT (t =7.643,8.226 ,P < 0.05),while the homogeneity of target volume by dIMRT was better (t =-10.065,-4.235 ,P <0.05).The dose of rectum and small bowel planned by RapidArc was significantly lower than that by dIMRT (t =2.781 ,P <0.05).There were no significant differences in the mean doses of bladder and femoral head between these two techniques.The mean monitor units of RapidArc was 475.5,fewer by 48.5% in comparison with that by the dIMRT (924.6).The treatment mean time by RapidArc was 1.2min,shorter by 79.5% in comparison with that by dIMRT (5.58 min).Conclusions There is no significant dosimetric difference between the two plans of RapidArc and dIMRT.Compared with dIMRT,RapidArc achieves equal target coverage and organs at risk(OAR) sparing while using fewer monitor units and less time during radiotherapy for patient with rectal cancer.

The novel 8-Aminoquinoline(8-AQ) derivatives receptor was designed and synthesized.Its struc ture was characterized by NMR and ESI-MS.It was investigated to recognize metal ions such as Cu~(2+), Hg~(2+), Pb~(2+), Zn~(2+), Ni~(2+) and Cd~(2+) via its absorption and fluorescence spectra.The recognition mechanism .and bind ing mode were discussed.The results showed that 8-AQ derivatives 1 coordinated with Cu~(2+) can induce a new absorption peak at 509 nm, which turned the solution to red from colorless.In acetonitrile Hg~(2+) and Cu~(2+) induced dramatic enhancement in the fluorescence of the derivation 1 by 368 and 192 folds.Job plot showed 1:1 stoichiometry between 8-AQ and Cu~(2+) or Hg~(2+).

Objective To compare the dosimetric difference of RapidArc and fixed gantry angle dynamic IMRT (dIMRT) for loco-regionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods Ten previously treated patients with loco-regionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma were replanned with RapidArc and dIMRT, respectively.The prescription dose was GTV 70 Gy/33 f and PTV 60 Gy/33 f.All plans met the requirement:95% of PTV was covered by 60 Gy.Dose-volume histogram data, isodose distribution, monitor units,and treatment time were compared.Results Dose distribution has no significant difference between the two techniques.RapidArc reduced the dose of the brainstem, mandible, and other normal tissues compared with dIMRT.Mean monitor units were 589.5 and 1381.0 for RapidArc and dIMRT (reduced by 57% relatively).Mean treatment time was 2.33 min and 7.82 min for RapidArc and dIMRT (reduced by 70% relatively).Conclusions Compared with dIMRT, RapidArc achieves equal target coverage and OAR sparing while using fewer monitor units and less time during radiotherapy for patient with loco-regionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
