Objective To evaluate the value of the corticomedullary phase ( CMP ) of CT and MRI scan for the differentiation of the subtypes of renal cell carcinoma ( RCC ) .Methods Ninety six cases of RCC proved by surgery and pathology were performed CMP scan with multislice helical CT and/or 1.5T MRI . The enhancement patterns of CT/MRI were correlated with the subtypes of RCC.Results There were 1 case of sarcomatoid RCC , 78 cases of clear cell RCC , 5 cases of granular cell RCC , 8 cases of mixed cell RCC and 4 case of papillary RCC . The masses were 2 cm to 9 cm in diameter . Sarcomatoid RCC, mixed cell RCC , 97.4% ( 76/78 ) of clear cell RCC and 75.0%(3/4) of papillary RCC showed inhomogenous enhancdment, and granular cell RCC showed homogenous enhancdment. Comparing with renal cortex, 51.3%(40/78) of clear cell RCC and 37.5%(3/8) mixed cell RCC showed hyperdensity or hypertension, sarcomatoid RCC, 44.9%(35/78) of clear cell RCC and 50.0%(4/8) mixed cell RCC showed isodensity or isotension, and all the granular cell RCC and papillary RCC showed hypodensity or hypotension.Conclusion The enhancement pattern in CMP of CT and MRI scan is different among the subtypes of RCC, and could be used for differentiation.

Objective To construct tissue engineered cartilage with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and allogeneic bone matrix gelatin (BMG). Methods Bone marrow was aspirated and MSCs were separated by consecutive 0.70(70%)(V/V) Percoll gradient centrifugation and fibronectin adhesion. In experimental group, rhTGF-?1 and rhIGF-Ⅰ were applied into DMEM to induce proliferation and chondrogenic transformation, while in control group only DMEM was used. Colony forming efficiency (CFE) of MSCs was calculated, procollagen ?1(Ⅱ)mRNA expression in cells was detected by RT-PCR, hexuronic acid in culture medium was measured by carbazole-sulfuric acid method. Allogeneic bone matrix gelatin (BMG) was prepared by successive defatting and decalcification, observed by scanning electronic microscope. Chondrocyte progenitor cells induced from MSCs were seeded into BMG to construct tissue engineered cartilage. Culture masses were sectioned and stained by Masson's trichrome. Results CFE was 21/106 in experimental group, significantly higher than that of control group, which was 3/106 (u=3.878, P

Objective To analyze the atypical CT and MRI findings of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and to discuss how to improve the diagnostic accuracy of RCC using CT and MRI. Methods The data of 100 cases of RCC (71 males and 29 females;age range from 29 to 75 years with a mean of 55 years) were reviewed.The surgical and pathological findings showed clear cell carcinoma in 82 cases,mixed cell carcinoma in 8,granular cell carcinoma in 5,papillary RCC in 4 and sarcomatoid RCC in 1.A total of 101 masses were found.The masses were 0.8 to 9.0 cm (mean,4.3 cm) in greatest dimension. According to the CT and MRI findings of most cases in this group and the relevant information in literature,the typical CT and MRI findings of RCC were summarized. The atypical CT and MRI findings of RCC were analyzed,and correlated with surgical and pathological findings. Results There were 17 cases presenting with atypical CT and MRI findings.The atypical CT and MRI findings of RCC were divided into 4 types:① hypovascular RCC (12 cases,including 3 of clear cell carcinoma, 1 of mixed cell carcinoma, 5 of granular cell carcinoma and 3 of papillary RCC);②cystic RCC (3 cases of clear cell carcinoma);③RCC with volumes of hemorrhage (1 case of papillary RCC);④tumor's diameter less than 1㎝ (1 case of clear cell carcinoma). Conclusions Correct evaluation of the CT/MRI findings of hypovascular and cystic RCC,application of adequate scanning methods and careful interpretation of the imaging films are helpful for improving diagnostic accuracy of RCC.

Objective To establish the model of traumatic brain injury in rats with controlled cortical impact (CCI), and investigate the features of coma and cognition. Methods 40 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group (n=10), sham group (n= 10) and CCI group (n=20). CCI group was impacted at bilateral frontal lobe with the velocity of 3.5 m/s, depth of 7 mm and dwell time of 250 ms. The time of consciousness loss was recorded, and all the rats were investigated with Morris Water Maze 10 and 20 days after operation. Results The time of consciousness loss was longer in the CCI group than in the control group and the sham group (P<0.001). The escape latency was longer in the CCI group than in the control group and the sham group (P<0.001), while the percent of time spend in goal quarter during probe trial was less (P<0.001), both 10 days and 20 days after operation. Conclusion CCI at bilateral frontal lobe of rats can establish the model of severe traumatic brain injury with coma and long-term cognitive dysfunction.

Objective To investigate the CT,MRI features and differential diagnosis of central nervous system primitive neuroec-todermal tumors (cPNET).Methods The CT and MRI findings of 1 5 cases with cPNET proved by pathology were analyzed retro-spectively,and we summarized the imaging features and differential diagnosis.Results For this group,the average age was (8.82± 2.53)and the male to female ratio was 9 ︰6.All lesions located in supratentorial region,which had relatively large volume (average diameter of 6.3 cm),cystic necrosis (12/15),and no or mild peritumoral edema.cPNET showed isodensity,slight hyperdensity or slight hypodensity on CT plain scan,and demonstrated uniform or inhomogeneous enhancement.On MRI plain scan,solid part showed isointensity or slight hypointensity signal on T1 WI,isointensity or slight hyperintensity signal on T2 WI,hyperintensity sig-nal on DWI(12/15),isointensity(9/15)or slightly hyperintensity signal on FLAIR,and showed obvious uniform,honeycombed or irregular enhancement after enhanced scan,no enhancement in cystic necrosis.Conclusion cPNET have certain characteristics,inclu-ding the lower onset age,relatively large volume with well-defined edge and no or mild peritumoral edema,hyperintensity signal on DWI,isointensity signal on FLAIR.

BACKGROUND: Current numerous studies have confirmed that silver nanoparticles have been extensively applied due to their good anti-bacterial performances. OBJECTIVE: To summarize the overseas and domestic research and development of anti-bacterial silver coating based on the anti-bacterial mechanism and bio-safety of silver nanoparticles as wel as progression of anti-bacterial silver coating. METHODS: The first author retrieved the databases of Web of Science, PubMed and CNKI for relative articles published from January 1976 to January 2015. The keywords were “silver nanoparticles, titanium al oy, implant, antibacterial properties, biosecurity, coating” in English and Chinese, respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Because of their smal dimension and quantum effects, as wel as great specific surface area, silver nanoparticles can be in close contact with pathogenic microorganisms to exert biological effects. Additional y, silver nanoparticles exhibit the excellent resistance to bacteria, fungi, viruses and cancer cel s. However, most of their mechanisms of biological effects remain unclear, and there are unresolved problems about the slow-release time of silver nanoparticles in vivo and how to control the slow-release silver ions. Besides, there are fewer long-term animal experiments. Therefore, a large number of laboratory and clinical studies are needed to ensure that silver nanoparticles cannot cause adverse reactions during long-term administration and how to reduce their toxicity.
