Objecfive To observe the changes of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients with neuropsychiatrie disorders and evaluate rCBF SPECT imaging in the detection of neuropsychiatric problems in SLE patients.Methods Twenty neuropsychiatrie SLE patients were enrolled in the study and were performed SPECT rCBF imaging anti CT/MRI scans,respectively.Twenty SLE patients without neuropsychiatrie manifestatiuns (SLE) and 20 healthy volunteers also underwent SPECT rCBF imaging as controls.Semiquantitative analysis was conducted as designed by selecting 3 consecutive crosssections and delineating ROI,which generated HQ and the results were compared between with SLE and controls.Results SPECT rCBF findings were almormal in 20 NPSLE.in which 19 of the 20 with abnormal SPECT findings showed focal uptake defects the other patient showed increased foeal uptake.Four N PSLE patients had ahnormal CT/MRI scans findings.Compared with the methods of rCBF and CT/MRI imaging,the difference was significant (P＜0.01).Nineteen SLE patients without neuropsychiatrie manifestations had normal SPECT findings.the other 1 patient showed focal uptake defect.SPECT findings were all normal in 20 healthy volunteers.Temporal cortex was the most commonly involved region,followed by frontal cortex.Specific values generated from semiquantitative analysis (HQ) of temporal and frontal regions in neruopsychiatrie SLE patients were lower than that in SLE patients and healthy volunteers (P＜0.01 and P＜0.05).Conclusion SPECT rCBF imaging has the potential to be a sensitive tool to detect the neuropsyehiatric disordersin SLE patients,and has important value in helping for early diagnosis and therapy.Hypoperfusion on ECD-SPECT under the territory of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) is the most common observation,and which temporal and frontal regions are the most frequently involved regions in neruopsychiatrie SLE patients.

Objective To determine the diagnostic value of SPECT in lower digestive tract hemorrhage (LDTH). Methods Of the 24 LDTH cases,16 were tested by gastric mucosa imaging ,4 by 99m Tc PHA imaging,and the other 4 by 99m Tc RBC imaging.All the patients' diagnosis were confirmed by surgery and pathology. Results The sensitivity and the specificity of the gastric mucosa imaging were 100%(16/16) and 93.7%(15/16),respectively. The sensitivity of the 99m Tc PHA imaging and the 99m Tc RBC imaging was 75.0%(3/4) and 75.0 %(3/4), respectively, but had no specificity. Conclusions SPECT has very high sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of Meckel's diverticulum. 99m Tc PHA imaging and 99m Tc RBC imaging may help to determine the position of bleeding in unkown causes of LDTH.

The numbers of VSMCs in experimental groups were fewer than positive control group (P<0 .05) ,whereas the difference of OD value still has no statistical significance between experimental and positive groups (P= 0 .173) .Conclusion Recombinant Slit2 could inhibits migration in VSMCs induced by TNF‐α,whereas it has no effect on proliferation of VSMCs .

Objective To investigate the influence of miR-106b on Wnt/β-catenin pathway in HCC cells. Methods QGY-7703 and HepG2 cells were transfected with miRNA mimics or inhibitors. TOP/FOP luciferase ratio assay was used to test the Wnt/β-catenin pathway activity. The expression of downstream targeted genes of Wnt/β-catenin pathway were examined by Real-time PCR. The accumulation of β-catenin in nuclears were measured by Western blotting. Results Ectopic expression of miR-106b dramatically increased the average TOP/FOP ratio and the mRNA expression of downstream targeted genes in QGY-7703 and HepG2 cells. Compared with that in control cells , miR-106b over-expression promoted the nuclear β-catenin accumulation in QGY-7703 cells. Clonclusion MiR-106b activated Wnt/β-catenin pathway in HCC cells.

According to the pathological characteristics of symptomatic chronic thoracic and lumbar osteoporotic vertebral fracture (SCOVF), the different clinical treatment methods are selected, including vertebral augmentation, anterior-posterior fixation and fusion, posterior decompression fixation and fusion, and posterior correction osteotomy. However, there is still a lack of a unified understanding on how to choose appropriate treatment method for SCOVF. In order to reflect the new treatment concept and the evidence-based medicine progress of SCOVF in a timely manner and standardize its treatment, the clinical guideline for surgical treatment of SCOVF is formulated in compliance with the principle of scientificity, practicability and advancement and based on the level of evidence-based medicine.
