Objective Study the behaviors of image registration algorithms, and analyze the elements which influence the performance of image registrations. Methods Pre-known corresponding coordinates were appointed for reference image and moving image, and then the influence of region of interest (ROI) selection, transformation function initial parameters and coupled parameter spaces on registration results were studied with a software platform developed in home. Results Region of interest selection had a manifest influence on registration performance. An improperly chosen ROI resulted in a bad registration. Transformation function initial parameters selection based on pre-known information could improve the accuracy of image registration. Coupled parameter spaces would enhance the dependence of image registration algorithm on ROI selection. Conclusions It is necessary for clinic IGRT to obtain a ROI selection strategy (depending on specific commercial software) correlated to tumor sites. Three suggestions for image registration technique developers are automatic selection of the initial parameters of transformation function based on pre-known information, developing specific image registration algorithm for specific image feature, and assembling real-time image registration algorithms according to tumor sites selected by software user.

Objective:To study effect of transcatheter occlusion and minimally invasive surgical occlusion in treating secundum atrial septal defect. Methods:Patients with secundum atrial septal defect were collected and randomly divided into observation group given transcatheter occlusion and control group received minimally invasive surgical occlusion. Then operation related index and and heart function index were observed. Results: there were no differences in operation related index between two groups(x2=1.039, P>0.05);operation success had negative correlation with age and positive correlation with LEVF (t=7.832, P<0.05) and no correlation with sex(t=0.892, P>0.05);in patients older than 45, the successful case, LEVF and LVEDD of observation group were significantly higher than control group(t=5.372, t=5.382;P<0.05). Conclusion:transcatheter occlusion and minimally invasive surgical occlusion can achieve ideal therapeutic efficacy;transcatheter occlusion has positive clinical value in patients over 45 years old for its advantages of small operation wound.

Zebrafish have been emerging as a valuable model for kidney research , including podocyte biology , nephrogenesis and kidney disease .The zebrafish kidney has similar structure , common function and the same cell types with human kidney .Rapid development and feasible genetic editing approaches in zebrafish provide an ideal model for high -throughput gene screening involved in kidney disease and developmental process .Loss or injury of podocytes is the key mechanism , which can lead to proteinuria , glomerulo-sclerosis and renal failure .Here, we introduce structure and function of zebrafish kidney , filtration estimating assays , podocytes injury model and the highlights of recent zebrafish podocytes studies .

To treat 30 patients with simple adiposis with needling of point Jiaji (Ex-B2, T3-L5), after 2 courses of treatment 12 got a marked curative effect, 15 got a curative effect, 3 got no effect, accounting for 10.0%. The total effective rate was 90.0%.

A PAGE IEF immunoassay was established to detect the ORM, Pi, AHSG and GC phenotypes slmultaneously in human bloodstains. The cumulative discriminating power and probability of paternity exclusion were 0. 9878 and 0. 6648 respectively. Human sera diluted 100 times and bloodstains kept at room temperature for 4 weeks could be typed for these four blood groups correctly. The phenotypes of ORM, AHSG and GC could be determined correctly in bloodstains kept at room temperature within 24 weeks. This provides a good approach for individual identification of human bloodstains.

Objective: Simulating the photon transport process, recording the distribution of the dose which is caused by various of interactions and secondary particles, summarizing and analyzing the weightiness of each contribution. Methods: The PENELOPE package provides the basic Monte Carlo(MC) code which simulates the processes of photon and electron transport Considering the concerned physical problems, the author modifies the PENELOPE program to simulate the track of photon transport process, meanwhile records the contribution of dose which is provided by various of interactions and secondary particles in this article. Results: Firstly, in the same condition, recording the distribution from 4 source different energies(30 keV, 40keV, 50 keV, 60 keV), the distribution of the central axis total dose and the distributions which are caused by secondary Soft collision and secondary hard inelastic collision, and the distribution of the central axis dose provided by secondary particles. Secondly, in the same condition, recording the distribution of the central axis dose caused by secondary Compton scattering and secondary Photonelectric scattering. Conclusion: In different source of energy, the distribution of the central axis dose proffered by secondary soft collision play a major role; the contribution of secondary Photonelectric scattering decreased with the ascent of energy; the contribution from the first generation secondary particles is stronger than others.

Objective To investigate the effect of telephone follow-up on peripherally inserted central cathter(PICC) maintenance.Methods Two hundred and eighty-nine patients with PICC in our hospital from January to December 2010 served as the control group,given conventional health education on intubation,another 305 patients with PICC from January to December 2011 were set as the observation group,where telephone call follow-up was done on the basis of conventional health education on intubation. The two groups were compared in terms of timely catheter maintenance,catheter-related complications,accidental extubation and satisfaction.Result The observation group was significantly better than the control group in terms of timely catheter maintenance, catheter-related complications,accidental extubation and satisfaction (allP<0.05).Conclusion Telephone follow-up helps to improve patients compliance with PICC catheter maintenance,effectively control the complications and improve the quality of life and satisfaction degree.

Objective To evaluate the application value of 64-row spiral CT coronary angiography(CAG)in myocardial bridge (MB)and mural coronary artery(MCA) .Methods Imaging data of 436 consecutive subjects underwent coronary CT angiography in Hospital of Beijing Puren were enrolled in this study .The prevalence ,clinical effects of patients ,precise location and incidence of each branch were evaluated .In addition ,the length and depth of MB ,as well as their relationship with MCA in stenosis were evalua-ted .Moreover ,the group of subjects with MB was compared with the control group(subjects without MB)in the probability of ath-erosclerosis .Results Among the total of 436 subjects ,76 subjects(17 .4% ,76/436)were found to have MB .The left anterior de-scending artery(LAD)was the most common coronary artery involved(68 .4% ,52/76) .The pressure level of MCA associated with the length and depth of MB .A significant difference was found between the LAD-MB-MCA group and the control group in the presence of coronary artery plaques(P<0 .05) .Conclusion The anatomic relation between MB and MCA can be precisely displayed on 64-row spiral CT coronary angiography ,which is considered to be an excellent diagnostic method to screen MB-MCA initially . There is a relationship between stenosis of MCA and the length and depth of MB .The present and stenosis of MB-MCA are meant to form coronary artery plaques in LAD segment more easily .
