Objective To assess the relationship between gastric carcinoma perfusion imaging parameters with the multislice spi-ral CT (MSCT)and the tumor angiogenesis(MVD,VEGF).Methods (1)33 patients with gastric cancer were carried on perfusion CT scanning in the suspected lesions,and compared with operation and histological result.MSCT perfusion parameters tumor,such as local blood flow (BF),blood volume (BV),mean transit time of contrast agent (MTT),permeability surface (PS),were recor-ded,and compared with clinical pathological data.(2)27 patients of 33 cases which CT perfusion plane matching with operation pa-thology specimens performed with tumor microvessel density (MVD),vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)monoclonal anti-body immunohistochemical examination of MVD,the most intensive areas of high power (×200 HP)field counted,and VEGF stai-ning positive judged.Results Achievement ratio of gastric carcinoma MSCT perfusion imaging was 84.85% (28/33).The average value of BF,BV,MTT and PS were 63.658 ± 18.305,7.5 1 1 ± 2.427,1 1.952 ± 4.325 and 31.81 7 ± 13.533,respectively,and MVD was 37.7 ± 11.1/200 HP (range:13-60).VEGF was positive in 16 cases,negative in 11 cases.Gastric carcinoma undifferentiated group perfusion parameter PS value (35.1 5 ± 12.74 )and MVD (40.53 ± 10.66 )were higher than the differentiation group (23.90 ± 12.71 and 31.13 ± 9.82 )(P < 0.05 ),but BF,BV,MTT not statistically significant;Differences of CT perfusion parameters and MVD were not significant statistically between invasive serosa and noninvasive ;PS value (36.65± 12.80)of lymph node metastasis was greater than without metastasis(22.70 ± 1 1.1 5 )(P <0.01 ),the other was no significant difference;TNM staging Ⅲ,Ⅳ phase group of BF value (69.56 ± 1 6.49),PS value (34.90 ± 12.80)and MVD value (40.74 ± 10.53)were higher than Ⅰ,Ⅱ Group (49.63 ± 1 5.04),(24.50 ± 13.13)and (30.63 ± 9.61)(P <0.01).Spearman correla-tion analysis in confidence (two tails)of 0.01 was statistically significant between MVD in tumor tissues and gastric cancer MSCT perfusion parameters of BF (r=0.404)and MTT (r=0.371),whereas BV and PS were no significance.The regression equation of MVD with BF and MTT:MVD =1 6.602+0.1 50XBF +0.967XMTT,model checking of F values was 6.62,P =0.003.Conclusion The gastric carcinoma multi-slice CT perfusion imaging parameters BF,MTT and MVD,VEGF(+)was positive correlation, MSCT perfusion imaging parameters reflects tumor VEGF positive expression of gastric carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of protocatechuic acid(PCA)on the PC12 cell model of Alzheimer’s disease(AD)and to explore its mechanism . Methods Amyloid beta peptide 1-42(Aβ1-42)fiber polymers were identified by immunofluorescence. After PC12 cells were stimulated with the Aβ1-42 fiber polymers, the cellular morphology was observed at different time points of hour 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 24 , and the cellular viability was tested by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT)assay to monitor the modeling condition. The effect of PCA on PC12 cells was detected after PC12 cells were pretreated with the different contentions of PCA. Autophagy-related marker Beclin1 protein level was detected by Western blotting method to investigate the protective mechanism of PCA. Results Aggregated white Aβ1-42 mass was stable at hour 12 and 24, and showed no significant difference between the two time points, the cell damage rate being 40%. Therefore, we defined culturing time being 12 and 24 hours as the modeling condition of AD model. The cell viability was increased with 200-800 μmol/L of PCA after culturing for 24 hours(P<0.01) , and the Western blotting results showed that the Beclin1 protein expression was up-regulated by PCA. Conclusion PCA prevents PC12 cells from Aβ1-42-induced toxicity, the mechanism being related with the increase of cellular autophagy.

Objective To evaluate two different MRI techniques , enhanced 3D STIR SPACE and unidirectionally-encoded DWIBS MR Neurography in visualizing the brachial plexus.Methods Twenty healthy volunteers underwent MR scanning by the procedures of unidirectionally -encoded DWIBS and enhanced 3D STIR SPACE sequence of the brachial plexus.Original images were reconstructed with coronal maximum intensity projection ( MIP ).The image quality was assessed by comparing the visualization of various parts of the brachial plexus and the suppression ratio of image background.The degree of visualization was compared via χ2-test of paired data , and comparison of background suppression scores was performed using a nonparametric Wilcoxon signed rank sum test.Results The successful rate of visualizing the brachial plexus supraclavicular section ( C5-T1 ) was 84% ( 167/200 ) and 99% ( 198/200 ) , respectively, for the DWIBS and enhanced 3D STIR SPACE, and the rate for the infraclavicular section was 33%( 13/40 ) and 95% ( 38/40 ).The differences between these two techniques were statistically significant (χ2 value was 28.18 and 31.15 respectively, P <0.01).In all images, the scores of grade (Ⅰ-Ⅳ) of background suppression were 0, 0, 4 and 16 for unidirectionally-encoded DWIBS, respectively;while they were 15, 4, 1 and 0 for enhanced 3D STIR SPACE.There was significant difference between the two techniques ( Z =3.96,P <0.01).Conclusions High-quality MR neurography of the brachial plexus can be obtained using the enhanced 3D STIR SPACE sequence.It offers a complete anatomical coverage of the brachial plexus , and thus demonstrates a better capacity in depicting the anatomy of brachial plexus as compared with the unidirectionally-encoded DWIBS.

Objective Early evaluate the feasibility and reproducibility of sorafenib-targeted therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma by RECIST1.1, mRECIST and three-dimensional volume measurement. Methods Seventy patients with pathology or typical imaging findings confirmed as hepatocellular carcinoma along with the sorafenib-targeted treatment for more than 2 months between October 2004 to April 2017 in the Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were retrospectively analyzed. Patients underwent chest, abdominal and pelvic CT scans and enhanced scans before and after 2 weeks of sorafenib treatment. Two physicians used RECIST 1.1, mRECIST, and volume measurement criteria to evaluate the efficacy of treatment. According to their averaged results, the patients were divided into two groups (control group and non-control group). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to compare the prognostic values between different response evaluation criterias for early predicting the efficacy of sorafenib-targeted therapy in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Kappa test was used to assess the efficacy response consistency in intra-group and inter-group. Results Based on mRECIST and RECIST 1.1 measurements, the control group included 34 cases, and the non-control group included 36 cases. Based on semi-automatic volume measurement, the control group included 38 cases, and the non-control group included 32 cases. Before the treatment with sorafenib, the RECIST 1.1 and mRECIST methods were used. There was a high degree of consistency between the two doctors (Kappa values were 0.79 and 0.71, respectively), and the semi-automatic volume measurement method was extremely consistent (Kappa value was 0.90); the consistency in intra-observer by three different methods was extremely high (Kappa values were 0.91, 0.85, 0.97, respectively). After the treatment with sorafenib, the consistency between the two radiologists using RECIST 1.1 measurement was high (Kappa value was 0.65), the consistency of mRECIST measurement was moderate (Kappa value was 0.52), and the consistency of tumor volume measurement was extremely high (Kappa The value was 0.83), the consistency in intra-observer using the above three methods was high or very high (Kappa values were 0.86, 0.74, 0.90, respectively). The RECIST 1.1 and mRECIST measurements were less sensitive in early evaluation of sorafenib-targeted treatment, and there was no significant difference between the control group and the non-control group (P=0.578 and 0.613) while the semi-automatic volumetric measurement was sensitive (P=0.004). Conclusion Semi-automated three-dimensional volume measurement which has better intra-and inter-group consistency and reproducibility can reflect the efficacy of sorafenib-targeted therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma in early stage.

Objective: To explore the effect of early enteral nutrition(EEN) and parenteral nutrition(PN) on the postoperative outcomes of patients with gastric cancer and nutritional risk in enhanced recovery after surgery. Methods: A total of 130 patients with gastric cancer hospitalized in department of surgery of Ningbo First Hospitalfrom September 2016 to May 2018 were selected and divided into early enteral nutrition support group (EEN) which was placed with jejunal nutrition tube during the operation, and enteral nutrition started within 12-24 hours after the operation, and parenteral nutrition support group (PN) which was given parenteral nutrition support one day after surgery. Patients in both groups were given nutrients of equal heat and nitrogen.The incidence of nutrition-related complications, the incidence of infection-related complications, the length of postoperative hospital stay and the time of anal exhaust were compared between the two groups. Results: The incidence of nutrition-related complications was 10 cases (15.38%) and 4 cases (6.15%)in EEN group and PN group, that was not statistically different (P=0.157). The incidence of infection-related complications was 3 cases (4.61%) and 5 cases (7.69%) in EEN group and PN group, that was not statistically different (P=0.715). The postoperative hospital stay was 11 days (range, 10-15) and 12 days (range, 11-13)in EEN group and PN group, that was not statistically different (P=0.233). The first anal exhaust time and defecation timewere 64 hours (range, 52-77) and 87 hours (range, 76-100) in EEN group and 72 hours(range, 60-86) and 96 hours(range, 86-120) in PN group, that was statistically different(P=0.001, P=0.034). Conclusion Enhanced recovery after surgery, early enteral nutrition after gastric cancer surgery may promote the recovery of intestinal function, but the complications and hospital stay after operation are not improved.

Objective To understand the characteristic of subtype distribution among foreigners who were living with HIV-1,in Guangzhou.Methods HIV-1 RNAs were extracted from 114 serum specimens in foreigners diagnosed with HIV-1 infections between 2008 and 2010,and in 2015.Partial pol gene of HIV-1 genome from these RNA samples were amplified by nested reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (nested-PCR) with nucleotide sequenced.Subsequently,phylogenetic tree was reconstructed using the pol sequences of samples and references.Results Among all the 114 samples,57.9％ were from males and 42.1％ from females,with an average age as 35.21 years old and the standard deviation as 9.63 years.A total of 6.8％ of the samples were from Africans.The top three subtypes were identified as CRF02_AG,subtype G and subtype C,accounted for 30.7％,14.9％ and 12.3％ respectively.Compared with samples gathered from 2008 to 2010,the proportions of subtype A1 and CRF01_AE significantly increased,while the other subtypes significantly decreased in 2015 (x 2=37.570;P=0.013,99％ CI:0.010-0.016).Proportions of CRF01_AE and subtype G among males outnumbered the females but the proportions of subtype A1,CRF02_AG and URF among females appeared the other way round (x2=15.528;P=0.029,99％CI:0.024-0.033).Proportions of CRF02_AG and subtype G among HIV-1 positive Africans were larger than those from other Southeast Asian countries or areas,However,the proportion of CRF01_AE among HIV-1 positive patients from Southeast Asian countries was higher than those patients from other areas (x2=39.399;P=0.009,99％ CI:0.006-0.011).The rates of resistance to any drug of protease inhibitors (PIs),reverse transcriptase inhibitors (RTIs),as well as to PIs,NRTIs,and NNRTIs alone,were 21.9％,12.3％,6.1％ and 7.0％,respectively.One of nine CRF01_AEs from the HIV-1 positive patients were found closely clustered in those phylogenetic tree (bootstrap=0.855) samples,collected from local patients in Guangzhou.Conclusions Our findings showed that these foreign subtypes had been spread to the natives,more from the Africans than from the other areas,in Guangzhou.These types of viruses were different from the strains identified locally,suggesting that they might have been brought in by foreigners living with HIV-1,in Guangzhou.Programs related to care,support and behavioral intervention for HIV positive foreigners living in Guangzhou,should be strengthened.
