Objective To investigate the regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and vascular cognitive impairment-no dementia (VCI-ND) subjects. Methods Sixteen normal elders, 10 patients of aMCI, 12 patients of VCI-ND who were aged from 50 to 80 years old and received an education of middle school or higher. All participants finished cranial CT or MRI. Xe-CT was used to evaluate rCBF of different cerebral regions of all participants. Results The distribution of rCBF of basal ganglia, the cortex and white matter was (76. 4 ± 8. 6), (48.0 ± 7. 1) and (20. 5 ± 1.7) ml· 100 g-1 ·min-1, respectively. When compared in 3 groups, the temporal and parietal lobe rCBF had a decreasing tendency in aMCI group, while in VCI-ND group, the most dominant decreasing parts were mainly concentrated in white matter region ((17. 7±2. 3) ml·100 g-1·min-1, F = 5. 740, P = 0. 002). Whatever the depth or the width was, beth periventricular and subeortical deep white matter, anterior and posterior ventricular regions were all involved. There are no dominant difference of rCBF in caudate nucleus, lentiform nucleus and thalamus. Conclusion The difference in rCBF reflects the pathological difference between aMCI and VCI-ND.

Cultured human testicular tissues were grouped as follows:control group,group tracted with single dosc of human chorionic gonadotropin(hCG), group treated with double doses of hCG given at three-day-interval and group treated with multiple doses of hCG. The dose of hCG was 20kIU/L,and it was added into the medium and incubated for 24 hours. Testosterone was measured by RIA. The result indicated that all three hCG-treated groups had a testosterone secretion peak at 48-72 hours after the first dose of hCG. After the second hCG treatment given in three days interval the testosterone increased again. but its maximal rise reduced. Multiple doses of hCG given successively inhibited the response of Leydig cells to hCG stimulation.

Objective: To investigate the cognitive impairment features in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment(aMCI) and vascular cognitive impairment-no dementia(VCI-ND).Methods:Sixteen normal elders,10 patients with aMCI and 12 patients with VCI-ND were recruited.The normal elders were selected from communities in Shanghai,while the aMCI and VCI-ND patients were selected from outpatient clinic.All participants ranged in age of 50～80 years,with education level of junior middle school or above,and they completed cranial CT or MRI and a series of neuropsychological tests.Results:In the three memory tests,aMCI group performed worst.The scores of both aMCI and VCI-ND groups were lower than that of the normal elders.For example,the delayed recall scores of the Rey-Osterrich complex figure test in the three groups were(18.8?9.5)(normal),(5.6?5.6)(aMCI) and(9.6?7.0)(VCI-ND)(P

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) for the treatment of non-acute (history ＞ 14 days) deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of the lower extremity.Methods Clinical data of 63 patients of non-acute DVT of lower extremities treated by CDT and adjunctive angioplasty and stenting from July 2009 to August 2013 were analyzed retrospectively.Venous recanalization was graded by a thrombus score based on pre-and post-treatment venography.Follow-up was performed by Doppler ultrasound and clinical evaluation.Results A total of 63 limbs with DVT with a mean symptom duration of (22 ± 5) days were treated by a continuous combined with pulse-spray infusion of urokinase of (1.21 ± 0.69) million IU/d for (74 ± 21) hours.Significant recanalization was achieved in 77％ (48 of 63) of the treated limbs.After thrombolysis,percutaneous angioplasty was done for 15 residual lesions and stent placement was performed in 11 iliac veins and 1 femoral vein.Minor bleeding occurred in 6 (10％) patients,no patients suffered from major bleeding or symptomatic pulmonary embolism.During follow up (mean:15 ±6 months),the veins were patent in 45 (71％) limbs.15 (24％) limbs developed mild post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS),and none had severe PTS.Conclusions CDT combined with adjunctive angioplasty and stenting is safe and effective for removal of the clot burden and for restoration of the venous flow in patients with non-acute lower extremity DVT.

AIM: It is found that some active priciples of ginseng can enhance and activate body immune system, and have many bioactivities such as anti-tumor, anti-aging and anti-radiation. This study examined the effect of ginsenoside-Rh2 (GS-Rh2) on proliferation and apoptosis in human myeloid leukemia cell strain HL60, and analyzed the dose- and time-dependent manners of GS-Rh2. METHODS: Experiments were performed at the Department of Clinical Laboratory of Jilin Medical College from July to August in 2006. ①Rh2 was purchased from Hongjiu Biotech Co., Ltd. (batch number 050801), and prepared into 50 g/L stock solution by dissolving in pH 7.4 phosphate buffer saline. The HL60 cell strain was purchased from Shanghai Institute of Cell Biology of Chinese Academy of Sciences. ②HL60 cells in logarithmic growth phase were inoculated into 3?108 L-1 cell suspension. After the cells were cultured for 6 hours, 100 ?L GS-Rh2 at different concentrations (5,10,20,40,80 mg/L) was added respectively. After the cells were administrated for 48 hours, cell inhibition ratio (IR) was evaluated by MTT colorimetric assay. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) was worked out. HL60 cell was acted with this concentration for different time (6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours), cell inhibition ratio (IR) at different time points was evaluated by MTT colorimetric assay, and compare it to the control. After the IC50 of GS-Rh2 acted for 48 hours, HL60 cells were observed with an inverted microscope. HL60 cell was stained by Giemsa, and the typical apoptosis cells were discovered. RESULTS: ①Dose-effect relationship: When the concentration of GS-Rh2 was 5,10,20,40 mg/L, the IR of GS-Rh2 to the growth of HL60 cells was increased gradually in obviously dose-dependent manner. The IR was similar between 80 mg/L and 40 mg/L. After the cells were administrated for 48 hours, the IC50 value was 13.0 mg/L. ②Time-effect relationship: After the concentration of IC50 of GS-Rh2 (13.0 mg/L) acting on HL60 line at different time points (6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours), cell IR was increased gradually (F=9.32,P

?Optic neuritis ( ON) is one of the most common causes of vision loss by neural eye diseases in youth and middle-aged. In the past, the diagnosis simply according to the risk position, which did not distinguish from the pathogenesis and clinical characteristics, can not meet the current clinical diagnosis and treatment needs. Combining with the etiology, clinical characteristics and prognosis, the latest classification of the current international diagnosis of ON are typical and atypical ON. Typical ON relates to multiple sclerosis ( MS ) or demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, it has a relatively good therapeutic effect and prognosis. Rather than, atypical ON has complex etiology, clinical manifestation, and the treatment and prognosis are also different. At present there are many international ON treatment guidelines with level I evidence-based medical evidence, but with different genetic background, geographical environment and ethnic groups, they are not been determined. China lacks of such a multicenter large sample, a wide range of research evidence. In this paper, we will summarize the progress of the diagnosis and treatment about ON, especially about the atypical ON, in order to provide some suggestions to further improve the standardization and individualization for clinical diagnosis and treatment on ON.

Probability of causation (PC) was used to facilitate the adjudication of compensation claims for cancers diagnosed following exposure to ionizing radiation. In this article, the excess cancer risk assessment models used for PC calculation are reviewed. Cancer risk transfer models between different populations, dependence of cancer risk on dose and dose rate, modification by epidemiological risk factors and application of PC are also discussed in brief.
