Objective To investigate the application value of DWI based on biexponential signal decay model with extended b-fac-tor range in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast lesions.Methods A total of 57 patients with breast tumor under-went DWI based on the biexponential model with 12 b-factors (0,10,20,50,100,200,400,600,800,1000,1 200 and 1 500 s/mm2 ), including benign lesions in 1 9 patients (24 breast tumors,defined as benign group)and malignant ones in 38 (47 tumors,defined as malignant group ).The values of slow apparent diffusion coefficient,fast apparent diffusion coefficient and fraction of fast ADC of le-sions were measured at a workstation (Advantage Windows 4.5).Differences in these parameters between the benign and malignant groups were compared.Results The ADCslow,ADCfast and ffast were(1.434±0.291)×10 -3 mm2/s,(2.744±0.050)×10 -3 mm2/s and (0.677±0.130)% in benign group,and (0.614±0.196)×10 -3 mm2/s,(2.692±0.068)×10 -3 mm2/s and (0.446±0.112)% in malig-nant one,respectively.The statistical differences in ADCslow and ffast were found between two groups (P <0.05),whereas no difference in ADCfast was found.Conclusion Biexponential signal decay model of DWI with extended b-factor range can provide helpful tissue characterization parameters for the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast lesions.

BACKGROUND:Different methods to remove immunogenicity have different effects on the spatial microstructure of antigen-extracted heterologous bone.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the microstructure of the antigen-extracted heterologous bone via different methods to provide experimental data for tissue engineering industrialization.
METHODS:Fresh cancellous bones extracted from adult sheep vertebrae were prepared into cylinders. Their long axis direction was the same with orientation of the trabeculae. After vibration washing and different-frequency ultrasound rinsing, the cylinder samples were randomly divided into three groups:in physical calcined group, the samples were defatted, decellularized and deproteinized sequential y using methanol/chloroform and hydrogen peroxide, then bathed in sodium pyrophosphate and directly calcined at 1 000 ℃ for 3 hours;in chemical group, the samples were defatted, decellularized and deproteinized sequential y using methanol/chloroform and hydrogen peroxide;in control group, the samples were dried natural y at room temperature. Microstructure of the samples in each group was analyzed and compared through determination of porosity, scanning electron microscopy observation, X-ray diffraction analysis, X-ray atomic spectroscopy elemental analysis microscopic spatial structure.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The physical calcined and chemical groups maintained natural network pore system to different extents. The size of the large pore was 50-600μm and that of the smal one was about 2μm. The porosity was 55%to 70%. Hydroxyapatite was the main component of the physical calcined group which was determined by X-ray diffraction, and a smal amount of theβ-Tricalcium phosphate was also determined. In the chemical group, the main component was only hydroxyapatite. The three-dimensional spatial structures of the deproteinized cancellous bones were not damaged greatly, and they had a natural pore network system. Antigen component of xenogeneic cancellous bone can be more thoroughly removed by physical calcination step. The scaffold material made by antigen-extracted heterologous bone may satisfy the demands for bone tissue-engineering scaffolds.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP),Epstein-Barr virus (EB virus) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in children with acute upper respiratory tract infections in Hangzhou.Methods Throat swabs and sputum samples were collected from 5942 children with acute upper respiratory tract infections in Hangzhou First People's Hospital during January 2011 and December 2012.MP,EB virus and CMV were detected using quantitative PCR.The distribution and seasonal changes of the above pathogens in children of different ages were analyzed using Chi-square tests.Results MP,EB virus and CMV were positive in 29.91％ (1777/5942),22.92％ (1362/5942) and 8.55％ (508/5942) children,respectively.Mixed infections were found in 556 (9.36％) children.The positive rates of MP varied among different age groups (x2 =113,P =0.000),and the highest one was detected in children ＞ 6-year old (448/1012,44.36％).EB virus infection was rare in age group 0-1 year,and the positive rate was of statistical difference from those in other age groups (x2 =167,181 and 187,P =0.000).The highest positive rate of CMV (23.78％) was found in children aged 0-1 year old.The positive rates of MP varied in different months of the year (x2 =208 and 211,P =0.000),and the highest positive rate was found in July and August.Conclusion The predominant pathogen of acute upper respiratory tract infection in children is MP in Hangzhou,and MP plus EB virus infection is common,particularly in older children;while CMV infection more likely occures in 0-1 year old babies,and usually in summer.

Objective: To retrospectively characterize and analyze the thyroid ultrasound images of thyroid cancer patients, to classify thyroid nodules according to thyroid imaging reporting and data system (TI-RADS), and to evaluate the diagnostic value of TI-RADS. Methods:Clinical data of 160 thyroid cancer patients with 235 nodules from September 2008 to August 2011 were retro-spectively analyzed. All patients underwent conventional color Doppler ultrasonography to evaluate the size, number, shape, boundary, and extent of lesions and blood distribution of the nodules. All nodules were analyzed according to TI-RADS classification and scored to evaluate the diagnostic value of TI-RADS. Results:Among 176 malignant nodules, 144 (81.8%) had lesions showing a mass of irreg-ular boundary with no envelope and halo, 152 (86.4%) were inhomogeneous hypoechoic or slightly hypoechoic, or 144 (81.8%) exhibit-ed microcalcification. TI-RADS scores of 4 or 5 and 2 or 3 were obtained in 160 (90.91%) and 16 (9.09%) of the malignant nodules, re-spectively. Conclusion:Thyroid ultrasound sonogram of ill-defined, irregular shape, hypoechoic or slightly hypoechoic mass, microcal-cification within the mass, and rich blood flow is an important index for the diagnosis of thyroid cancer. Thyroid nodules with a TI-RADS score 4 or 5 have higher possibility for cancer. Therefore, TI-RADS has a significant diagnostic value for thyroid cancer be-fore operation.

It has been shown, however, that in terms of immune function, a transitional stage of dendritic cell maturation exists between immature myeloid dendritic cells (imDCs) and mature dendritic cells (DCs), which were named semimature dendritic cells (smDCs). Therefore, the theory that DCs can be classified as imDCs and mDCs has been challenged because of finding smDCs. SmDCs and imDCs are regarded as tolerogenic dendritc cells while what concrete mechanism taken by smDCs and imDCs in transplantation immunity has yet to know. The authors analyzed the important roles and the advanced molecular mechanism of smDCs and imDCs in transplantation immunity in order to update and widen understand underlying tolerogenic dendritic cells.
