Results After injection of AdCTLA-4Ig into the lateral cerebral ventricle of Wistar rat EAE models, the time of EAE onset was delayed and the incidence rate was significantly reduced. And the transductive function tested by brain-stem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) and somatosensory evoked potential (SEP) was obviously improved. Conclusion CTLA-4Ig is effective in managing EAE.

Objective To investigate the mid-term effect of SolitaireAB stent-assisted interventional embolization with spring coils for the treatment of intracranial wide-necked aneurysms. Methods During the period from May 2009 to April 2013, a total of 49 patients with intracranial wide-necked aneurysm (49 aneurysms in total) received SolitaireAB stent-assisted interventional embolization treatment at authors’ hospital. In 41 patients, a total of 41 aneurysms were detected, of which ruptured aneurysm with bleeding was confirmed in 26 and un-ruptured aneurysm in 15. These 41 patients were followed up for 12-48 months. Based on modified Rankin scoring and DSA, CTA or MRA manifestations, the clinical results were evaluated. Results After the embolization treatment, re-bleeding of the aneurysm occurred in 2 cases, cerebral infarction in 3 cases, occlusion of the parent artery in one case and death in one case; the occurrence rate of complications was 14.2%. DSA, MRA or CTA performed at 12 months after the embolization treatment, showed that 32 aneurysms (78.0%) were completely obstructed, which was obviously higher than that observed on DSA performed immediately after the embolization procedure (21 aneurysms, 42.9%), the difference was statistically significant (P=0.02);residue of aneurismal neck was seen in 7 cases (17.1%) and partial occlusion in 2 cases (4.9%), which were much better than those observed on DSA that was performed immediately after the embolization procedure. Twenty-four aneurysms (58.5%) remained stable, showing no any change, and recurrence of aneurysm was observed in 4 cases (9.7%). At the last follow-up exam, the modified Rankin scoring showed that 0 point was seen in 18 cases (43.9%), one point in 10 cases (24.4%), 2 points in 5 cases (12.2%), 3 points in 4 cases (9.8%), 4 points in 2 cases (4.85%) and 5 points in 2 cases (4.85%). The self-care rate for daily activities was 80.5%, the prognosis was good. Conclusion For the treatment of intracranial wide-necked aneurysms, SolitaireAB stent-assisted interventional embolization with spring coils is safe and effective. This technique can improve the embolization rate and reduce the procedure-related complications.

Objective To study the effect on the environmental radioactivity level and the health of the residents in Shanghai when Qinshan Nuclear Power Station(QNPS) has been in normal operational condition for 17 years. Methods The field monitoring and the sampling analytical method were used for monitoring the radioactivity level in outdoor environment, drinking water, food and soil. Results The outdoor natural radiation level and the radioactivity level in the sample of the environmental media were on the normal background level. There was no distinct change in the environmental radiation level of Jinshan Area when QNPS was in normal operational condition. The radioactivity level in the environmental media was far lower than the limit values specified by the national standard GB. The effective dose of the outdoor natural external exposure for the residents is about 0.102 mSv/a and the effective dose of the internal exposure from the artificial radionuclides 90Sr and 137Cs in food for the residents is about 0.488 μSv/a. Conclusions There is no effect of the radioactive contamination on the environmental radioactivity level and the health of the residents in Shanghai when QNPS has been in normal operational condition for 17 years.
