Objective To evaluate the value of iterative modal reconstruction (IMR) for reducing radiation dose and controlling image quality in cardiac CT. Methods Ten pigs were included. All pigs were scanned on a 256?slice prospectively ECG?gated cardiac CT utilizing routine dose (group A) and tube current reduced by 30%(group B), 50%(group C) and 70%(group D), respectively. Filtered back projection (FBP), hybrid iterative reconstruction (iDose4) and IMR were used for all data, respectively. Image noise and contrast?to?noise ratio (CNR) of ascending aortic root were measured, while overall image quality and coronary artery image quality was rated (five point scale). All results reconstructed by FBP, iDose 4 and IMR were compared. Objective measurements were compared with one?way analysis of variance, and subjective assessments were compared with Kruskal?Wallis H test andχ2 test. Results Compared with that of FBP and iDose4, image noise of IMR was(15.1 ± 6.1),(18.8 ± 5.5),(22.1 ± 4.8)and(33.0 ± 4.0)HU, respectively in group A, B, C and D with significant reduction (F=82.77, 90.71, 96.59, 95.51 respectively, all P<0.01). Using IMR, groups A, B, C, D had higher CNR (42.0±11.1, 37.2±10.4, 31.4±8.7, 23.7±7.0;F=50.65, 53.55, 76.60, 57.36, all P<0.01) and overall image quality (5.0 ± 0.0, 4.8 ± 0.4, 4.6 ± 0.5, 4.5 ± 0.5;H=20.96, 15.63, 18.66, 23.56, all P<0.01) than FBP and iDose4. Using IMR, group A (100%, 40/40) and group B (100%, 40/40) had no significant difference (P>0.05) in the diagnosis rates of proximal coronary arteries compared with that using FBP and iDose4, while group C (100%, 40/40) and group D(92%, 37/40) had significantly increased diagnosis rates (χ2=20.05, 45.72, both P<0.01). The diagnosis rates of distal coronary arteries of IMR reconstruction which were 100%(50/50), 98%(49/50), 90%(45/50), 78%(39/50), respectively in groups A, B, C, D had significant increase compared with that of FBP and iDose4 reconstruction (χ2=7.39, 16.75, 34.62, 81.33, all P<0.05). Conclusions IMR can significantly reduce image noise, improve CNR and image quality compared with iDose4. Application of IMR can reduce radiation dose but without compromising image quality.

Acid fibroblast growth factor (aFGF) has great potential in clinical application, but it is very expensive. In order to reduce the cost of production and to make full use of the merits integrated with plant bioreator, we have explored the aFGF in transgenic Tobacco expression. AFGF gene was inserted into plant expression vector pBI121; the acquired plants contained aFGF gene expression vector pBI121-TOAB-aF. Using Agrobacterium-mediated gene transformation of Tobacco and using transgenic Tobacco containing kanamycin and cephalosporin culture medium, we obtained kanamycin resistant transgenic Tobacco plants. PCR detection, RT-PCR detection and Western blot detection confirmed that foreign genes were successfully expressed in Tobacco. These data could serve as a theoretical foundation on which to use the plant bioreactor for production of aFGF.

Objective:To explore the causes of misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis of fetal liver, hemangioma by prenatal ultrasound, aimed at improving the diagnostic rate of fetal liver hemangioma by prenatal ultrasound.Methods:Six cases of misdiagnosed fetal liver hemangioma in Hunan Province Maternal and Child Health Hospital between January 2016 and October 2018 were selected. In these cases, live births were tracked until they were 6-24 months old, while autopsy was carried out on induced fetuses. These failed cases were analyzed retrospectively, in terms of their scanning methods, ultrasonographic features and pregnancy outcomes.Results:Three cases were misdiagnosed by perinatal ultrasound: the time for the first discovery of masses in these cases was 37 + 3 weeks, 39 + 5 weeks and 37 + 4 weeks respectively. All of these tissues appeared as mixed echogenic masses and were misdiagnosed as hepatoblastoma. The other three cases were categorized as prenatal ultrasound missed diagnosis: in one case, prenatal ultrasound examination failed to detect the disease in question during the whole pregnancy, while ultrasound examination revealed lesions 2 days after birth; the other case didn′t see the detection of hepatic hemangioma was not detected until the 40th week of pregnancy by ultrasound in another case, as prenatal ultrasound at 31 + 6 weeks and 37 + 4 weeks showed nothing abnormal; yet prenatal ultrasound examination of the third case showed no findings in which at 26 + 6 weeks pregnant, but ultrasound performed at 33 weeks into gestation suspected slightly hypoechoic area in the liver, which was indicated hepatic hemangioma by MRI. Among the 6 cases, 2 of the induced fetuses were confirmed as hepatic capillary tumor by autopsy and pathological examination by with the consents of their family; four live births were confirmed to be hepatic hemangioma by contrast-enhanced CT scan and clinical follow-up observation. Conclusions:Multi-angle and multi-section scanning technique should be adopted in prenatal ultrasound examination of fetal liver. Mean while observations must also be made of any changes in the hepatic vein and any displacement of the peripheral organs of the liver, while ultrasonic images and color Doppler flow imaging features of the lesions are further analyzed. These actions lead to an improvement in the diagnostic accuracy of fetal liver hemangioma, which serves as a useful clinical guide to active and effective intervention measures.

Objective:To analyze the prenatal ultrasound manifestation of trisomy 21 syndrome and investigate the clinical significance of prenatal ultrasound in screening 21-trisomy syndrome.Methods:A retrospective analysis of prenatal ultrasound results of 200 fetuses diagnosed with 21-trisomy syndrome by karyotype from May 2017 to August 2018 in Hunan Provincial Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital. Ultrasound abnormalities were divided into isolated soft markers, simple structural abnormalities, complex ultrasound markers. The relationship between these markers and trisomy 21 was analysed.Results:200 fetuses with trisomy 21 syndrome diagnosed by karyotype, in which 39 cases (19.5%, 39/200) abnormalities were detected by ultrasound, including soft indexes and structural abnormalities/other abnormalities. The rates of isolated soft indexes, simple structural abnormalities/ other abnormalities and complex ultrasound markers were 15.5%(31/200), 2.0%(4/200), 2.0%(4/200), respectively. The most common of soft markers in the first trimester was thickened nuchal translucency (4/18), thickened nuchal fold (13.19%, 24/182) in the second trimester, followed by nasal bone dysplasia, tricuspid regurgitation and polyhydramnios (1.65%, 3/182). The most common structural malformations in the second trimester was cardiovascular malformation (3.30%, 6/182).Conclusions:Prenatal ultrasound has a role to play in the screening of 21-trisomy syndrome, but exerts certain limitations. It is necessary to strengthen the understanding of the ultrasonographic features of trisomy 21 and improve the detection rate of abnormal indicators. Meanwhile, it should be combined with serological screening, non-invasive prenatal testing technology to increase the detection rate of trisomy 21.
