China Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology 2016;29(6):576-580
Neck shoulder pain or lumbocrural pain caused by intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) could seriously affect the qualities life of patients. Current treatments mainly focus on alleviating pain and the symptoms of nerve compression, which could not radically stop the process of intervertebral disc degeneration, but conversely lead to high recurrence rate. In recent years, scholars have turned to study the biological treatment for repair and rebuild the intervertebral disc by biological molecular therapy, gene therapy, cell therapy and tissue engineering to solve the problem of intervertebral disc degeneration, while most of the above methods are still in animal experiments or in vitro experiments and the clinical application is still a long way to go.

In order to carry out the training objectives ofexcellent doctor education training pro-gram implemented by the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Health, an integrated organ-system oriented curriculum system of circulatory system was applied in five year clinical medicine education. The teaching contents of circulatory system from traditional Histology and Embryology, Physiology, Pathology, Pathophysiology, and Pharmacology were integrated and optimized to compile the integrated circulatory sys-tem textbook. problem-based learning (PBL) and comprehensive morphology experimental teaching were implemented into the integrated circulatory system curriculum. Diversified examination methods including continuous assessment of PBL were used to evaluate the learning effect of students. As a result, a new cur-riculum model of circulatory system teaching was constructed. And on the base of this curriculum model, an innovation course research experiment was performed, a digital network teaching platform with 4A (anybody, anything, anywhere, anytime) was set up, and diversified teaching methods were applied. This new developing curriculum system is helpful for students to relate what they have learned in the basic sci-ences to clinical medicine, gain clinical thinking competence, lifelong skills of self-directed learning, in-novative thinking, and ability of scientific research and practice.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the ability of high resolution magnetic resonance (MR) imaging at 3.0 tesla to depict the characterization of human carotid arterial vessel wall and detect atherosclerotic lesions ex vivo in comparison to histopathologic results. MethodsEighteen carotid arteries obtained from 9 elderly donors underwent fat-suppressed T1 - and T2-weighted MR imaging at 3.0 tesla MR system with a mouse coil. Corresponding histological sections were obtained for the comparison. Correlation between MR images and histopathologic slices was obtained by Pearson or Spearman correlation coefficient.Cohen K was computed to quantify the agreement between MRI and histopathologic findings.Results Lumen area,intima and media area measured on fat-suppressed T2-weighted images showed stronger correlation with the corresponding histopathologic slices [ MRI vs.histopathology:( 27. 53 ± 6. 77 ) mm2 vs.( 25.83 ±6. 69 ) mm2, r2 = 0. 91,P2 = 0. 024, ( 12.31 ± 3. 31 ) mm2 vs.( 12. 28 ± 3.71 ) mm2, r2 = 0. 70, P2 = 0. 020,Median 12. 29 mm2(Min 1.12 mm2, Max 33.18 mm2) vs.Median 11.62 mm2(Min 0.89 mm2, Max 32. 84 mm2 ), r2 = 0. 74, P2 = 0. 016, respectively]. The Cohen K score between the MR imaging and American Heart Association classifications was 0. 74, which corresponds to a good agreement. Conclusions 3.0 T high-resolution multi-sequence MRI can clearly show the structure of ex vivo carotid artery wall and allow quantitative assessment.Fat-suppressed T2Wimaging has a greater advantagein presenting atherosclerotic lesions.
