Objective To investigate MR imaging findings of hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) on unenhanced and dynamic contrast enhanced scans and evaluate their diagnostic value. Methods The unenhanced and dynamic gadolinium enhanced MR images of 22 FNHs proved by pathology were retrospectively analyzed. Results Average size of FNH lesions was 4.05 cm. The typical MR isointensity signal with surrounded hepatic parenchyma on T 1 and T 2 weighted images was seen in only 4 lesions, while atypical signal was encountered in 18 lesions. A central scar was noted in 8 lesions on unenhanced images. After gadolinium administration, 21 lesions had vigorous enhancement on arterial phase and prolonged enhancement on portal vein and delayed phase. The ring enhancement of capsule was noted in 2 lesions on portal vein and delayed phase. 18 lesions showed a central scar on dynamic contrast enhanced images. 19 lesions were correctly diagosed by using the combination of unenhanced and dynamic contrast enhanced MR imaging. Conclusion The combination of unenhanced and dynamic contrast enhanced MR imaging can fully show the pathologic characteristics of FNH and improve to differeniate ability from other malignant hypervascular tumors.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of three-dimensional contrast-enhanced MR angiography (3D CE-MRA) in the diagnosis and treatment of aortic coarctation. Methods Twenty-one patients with aortic coarctation underwent 3D CE-MRA with a 3D FLASH sequence after injection of 0.2 mmol Gd-DTPA per kg b. w. The source images were subtracted and transferred to computer workstation subsequently post-procession. In six patients, cardioangiography was performed simultaneously. The diagnoses of all patients of them were proven by surgery. Results There were 6 cases (28.6%) of simple type of aortic coarctation and 15 (71.4%) accompanied other cardiovascular abnormalities. 3D CE-MRA could directly demonstrate the stenotic location, degree, extent and extracardiac vascular abnormalities, which accorded with surgical findings. The depiction of the entirety and collateral vessel formation was very helpful for surgery. It can be easier for pre- and post- operative evaluation. Conclusion 3D CE-MRA is a noninvasive and accurate technique in the diagnosis of aortic coarctation. It could replace the cardioangiography for extracardiac vascular abnormalities, and may be one of the first choice examinations.

Objective To understand the psychological status of the AIDS affected orphans in Henan Sunshine Homestead.Methods One hundred orphans from three Henan Sunshine Homesteads were investigated by questionnaire and depth-interviews.Results The study showed that the AIDS affected orphans were satisfied with their present living conditions in general,but still had some dissatisfaction.They valued peer relations,but were passive to contact strangers,and also felt lacking of care from the elderly.Nearly 70% of the orphans were some what introverted in nature,and some were in lack of thankful heart to managers of the Homestead and their patrons.

Objectives:To investigate the effects of amylin on bone minernal density and structure parameters of bone tissue in glucocorticoid induced osteoporosis rats. Methods:Four groups of female Wistar rats (3 months old) were treated for 12 weeks as follows: ⅠNormal Control, ⅡDXM, Ⅲ DXM+AMY;Ⅳ DXM+Vitamin Da 3. By intramuscular injection of dexamethasone(XM)1mg/kg twice a week during the first 8 weeks, the animal model of Glucocorticoid induced osteopoprosis was established. After 12 weeks, BMD of the lumbar vertebrae and the femural bone were measured by DEXA. The bone morphology of the lumbar vertebrae was also determined. Results:①After the treatment with AMY, bone mineral density (BMD) was significantly increased at the lumbar spine and the femural bone. ( vs. DXM group, P

Objective To evaluate the application of CT perfusion in the assessment of muscle perfusion in ischemic rabbit hindlimb treated by implantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.Methods Twenty rabbits were divided into two groups randomly (each n =10).Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were injected into the left ischemic hind limbs of animal models of intravenous injection group,with same volume of normal saline injected into the control group.Twenty-eight days later,the collateral circulation and blood vessel neogenesis were examined by Toshiba Aquilion One 320-MSCT and pathological approaches.t test and Pearson test were used to compare the parameters.Results The results show that rAF,rBV,rClearance,rMVD were 1.15 ±0.67,1.19 ±0.32,0.62 ±0.20,and 1.34 ±0.28 in intravenous injection group and 0.57 ±0.17,0.74 ±0.19,2.06 ±0.15,0.62 ±0.19 in the control group respectively.There was significant difference of rAF,rBV,rClearance and rMVD between the intravenous injection group and the control group(t =5.75,5.01,-2.81,6.43 respectively,P ＜ 0.01).There was significant correlation between rBV,rAF,rC and rMVD (r =0.857,0.811,0.615,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion CT perfusion imaging is a relatively accurate technique to assess changes of muscle perfusion in ischemic rabbit hindlimb treated by implantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.

Objective To compare the operative cooperation of da Vinci robotic surgery and traditional laparoscopic surgery, so as to provide evidence to qualify the operative cooperation of minimally invasive operation. Methods Comparison of the operative cooperation with related experiences and literature was made between the two kinds of surgeries. Results More requirements were put forward during the da Vinci robotic surgery on nurses′ service quality and training methods, ethics & law knowledge and humanistic care, equipment installation and preparation, complicated nursing performance content, system error handling and postoperative management, etc.. Conclusions It is suggested that the operative cooperation of the precise minimally invasive operation should be improved as follows:strengthen the nurses′ special training and continuing education; establish related operation process and management standards;do patients′explanation work and surgical team cooperation.

Objective:To determine the inflammatory factor levels and inflammatory cell percentages in the patients with cough variant asthma (CVA ), and to clarify their potential role in the pathogenesis of CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment.Methods:60 patients with CVA were randomly selected and divided into CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment group (n=30)and CVA responsive to bronchodilator treatment group (n=30).As the same time 30 cases of healthy persons were used as normal control group.The levels of interluekin-8 (IL-8)and esoinophil cationic protein (ECP)in their induced sputum were detected,the classification of inflammatory cells in their induced sputum were observed, and their scores of cough symptom were recorded. Results:The IL-8 level in the induced sputum of the patients in CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment group was higher than that in CVA responsive to bronchodilator treatment group and normal control group (P<0.05).The ECP level in the induced sputum of the patients in CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment group was lower than that in CVA responsive to bronchodilator treatment group (P<0.05),but it was similar to the level in normal control group (P>0.05).The neutrophil percentages in the induced sputum of the patients in CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment group were higher than those in CVA responsive to bronchodilator treatment group and normal control group (P<0.05).The scores of cough symptom of the patients in CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment group was positively correlated with IL-8 level (r=0.764,P<0.01), and the scores of cough symptom of the patients in CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment group was positively correlated with the neutrophil percentage in induced sputum (r=0.889,P<0.01).Conclusion:IL-8 and neutrophil may be associated with the incidence of CVA unresponsive to bronchodilator treatment. They can aggravate the inflammation and hypersensitivity of airway and cough symptom. The determination of IL-8 and neutrophil can be used as an accessory method in the diagnosis and j udgement of severity degree and curative effect of CVA in clinic.
