In this paper, according to the requirement of the focused sound field measurement, a focused sound field measurement system was established based on the LabVIEW virtual instrument platform. The system can automatically search the focus position of the sound field, and adjust the scanning path according to the size of the focal region. Three-dimensional sound field scanning time reduced from 888 hours in uniform step to 9.25 hours in variable step. The efficiency of the focused sound field measurement was improved. There is a certain deviation between measurement results and theoretical calculation results. Focal plane--6 dB width difference rate was 3.691%, the beam axis--6 dB length differences rate was 12.937%.

Objective To observe the influence of coal-burning type of fluorosis on hypothalamic-pituitaryovary axis function and to explore possible mechanism in female rats.Methods Sixty SD rats were divided into two groups according to body weight with the method of random number table:control group and fluorosis group,30 rats in each group.Fluorosis group was feed with corn powder baked by high fluorine coal from Zhijin area.Changes of female rats' teeth during fluorine exposure were observed.After feeding for 180 days,24 h urine was collected in estrus and fluorine level was tested using fluoride ion-selective electrode; rats were executed and bone fluorine level was tested with high-temperature ashing-fluorine ion-selective electrode.Femoral artery blood was collected and serum was separated to test the contents of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH),luteinizing hormone (LH),testosterone (T),estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P) with electrochemiluminescence radioimmunoassay and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH),inhibin (INH) with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA),respectively.Organs,including hypothalamus,pituitary gland and ovary were weighted,and organ coefficients were calculated.Pathological morphology of hypothalamus,pituitary gland and ovary was observed after staining and ultrastructure of ovary was examined by electron microscopy.Results Coal-burning induced fluorine poisoning rat model was established successfully.There were no significant differences statistically in organ coefficients between fluorosis groups (0.032 ± 0.004,0.014 ± 0.008,0.037 ± 0.009) and controls (0.035 ± 0.005,0.012 ± 0.006,0.035 ± 0.004,t =0.46,0.87,0.64,all P > 0.05).Rats serum GnRH,FSH,LH and T levels [(21.654 ± 4.765),(29.580 ± 5.221),(53.988 ± 6.506),(23.962 ± 2.255)μg/L] of fluorosis groups were all higher than those of controls [(10.384 ±2.250),(19.217 ± 4.743),(30.314 ± 4.443),(7.883 ± 1.973)μg/L,t =6.762,4.646,9.503,16.971,all P < 0.05].But the level of P,INH [(12.635 ± 3.841),(18.926 ± 3.465)μg/L] were all lower than those of controls [(21.045 ±4.768),(48.076 ± 3.525)μg/L,t =4.344,18.649,all P < 0.05].Serum E2 levels of control group and fluorosis group were (35.375 ± 10.662) and (27.500 ± 12.783)μg/L,respectively.The difference between groups was not statistically significant (t =1.821,P > 0.05).No pathological changes were observed in the two groups of female hypothalamus,pituitary tissue by light microscopy and electron microscopy.Under light microscope,in the control group of normal ovarian tissue,more corpus luteum and different developmental stages of follicles were seen,granulosa cells were neatly arranged in a monolayer or multilayer.In fluorosis group,severe edema of ovarian interstitial cells and follicle degeneration increased.Cell structure and cell contours were blurred and unclear with occasional mature follicles.Under transmission electron microscope,in control group,normal ovarian granulosa cell ultrastructure was observed,nuclei were round,nuclear chromatin was uniform distributed,cytoplasm was rich in mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum,and normal morphology.In fluorosis group,granulosa cells and interstitial cells showed apoptotic characters,such as nucleoli disappearing,mitochondrial swelling and chromatin aggregating at the nuclear membrane.Conclusions Fluorosis can induce ovarian tissue apoptosis,severely damage the micro environment.Reduction of P and INH affects ovarian,maturation and ovulation and leads to secretion of GnRH,FSH and LH.Fluorosis caused by coal-burning may induce the injury of ovary and cause abnormal secretion of hypothalamic-pituitary-ovary axis.Fluorosis has affected parts of female axis which may not be in the hypothalamus,pituitary,but causes ovarian tissue damage.

Objective To carry out a comparative study between the Chinese 2008 and'92 staging system of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods A total of 777 patients presented with untreated nondisseminated NPC who had received MRI scan of nasopharynx and neck were studied retrospectively. The clinical materials and information of imaging were collected. All patients were restaged according to the Chinese 2008 and 92 staging system of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Distribution of T, N stage, survival and prognostic value were compared. 513 patients of the 777 cases were treated with conventional radiotherapy,264 cases with intensity modulated radiation therapy. Results The 3-year follow-up rate was 97.6%. The consistency of T stages was 95.0%. T, N and clinical stage distributions in two systems were similar ( Kappa = 0. 93, P = 0. 000; Kappa = 0. 58, P = 0. 000; Kappa = 0. 74, P = 0. 000). Local failure-free survival and disease specific survival were also similar. There was no difference of distant metastasis between N0 and N1(x2 = 1.94,P=0. 164), and a marginal difference between N1 and N2(x2 =3.83,P=0.051) in the Chinese'92 staging system. However, although there was also no difference of distant metastasis-free survival between No and N1a(x2 =0. 07,P =0. 797), ) the difference of overall survival among N1b, N2, and N3 were significant ( x2 = 4. 95, P = 0. 026; x2 = 6. 74, P = 0. 009) in the Chinese 2008 staging system. Conventional radiotherapy or intensity modulated radiation therapy was not a prognostic factor for survival ( x2 = 3.60,P =0. 058). It is reasonable for the Chinese 2008 staging system integrated lymph node characteristics such as laterality, level and extranodal neoplastic spread into the N staging criteria ( x2 = 6. 59, P = 0. 010; x2 =4.78,P=0. 029;x2=9.32,P=0. 002). Conclusions For the Chinese 2008 staging system, it was reasonable to simplify the previous T stage. The N stage showed a better predictive role of distant failure.The role of retropharyngeal lymph node in stage system needs further investigation.

Background and purpose: Cervical nodal metastasis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma plays an important role in the definition of radiotherapy area and clinical staging, it is also one of the main factors influencing prognosis. So this study was designed to explore the pattern of metastatic lymph nodes for patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma, which may provide a basis for clinical treatment and research. Methods: From Jun. 2005 to Sep. 2007,779 histologically diagnosed nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients had routine MRI scan before radiation therapy at Fujian Provincial Cancer Hospital. Diagnostic radiologists and radiation oncoiogists together assessed the nodal distribution according to the guideline CT-hased delineation of lymph node levels. Then, Chi-sqnare test was used to analyze the correlation between T stage and nodal metastasis rate and between nodal diameter and nodal extracapsular invasion. Results: Of 779 patients, 592(76.0%) had nodal involvement. The distribution was as follows: 1 in level Ⅰ,384 in level Ⅱa, 499 in level Ⅱ_b, 184 in level Ⅲ, 33 in level Ⅳ, 67 in level V_a, 21 in level V_b, 597 in retropharynx.In these patients, a total of 1 479 postive nodes, including 973 (65.79%) extracapsular spread nodes, were detected.The rate of nodal extracapsular invasion was higher when the axial diameter increased. Leap metastasis rate was 1.0%. No significant correlation was found between T stage and nodal involvement. Conclusion: The level Ⅱ and retropharyngeal node were the most frequently involved regions, they had similar metastatic rate and were both the first echo node to metastases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Level Ⅰ metastasis was lower. The proportion of extracapsular spread of metastatic lymph nodes increased with axial diameter of lymph nodes-dependent. The cervical node involvement of nasopharyngeal carcinoma was spread orderly down the neck, and the incidence of skip metastasis is rare. The relationship between T stage and nodal involvement has no statistical significance.
