With the aging of population, cerebral small vessel disease has attracted more and more attention. A growing body of literature has confirmed that retinal vascular changes can be used as a potential marker for the prediction of cerebral small vessel disease. The retina is recognized as a window into cerebrovascular and systemic vascular conditions. Combining traditional fundus photograph and fundus fluorescein angiography with optical coherence tomography angiography, the retinal vascular system of patients with cerebral small vessel disease can be comprehensively analyzed. This paper summarizes and analyzes the application of retinal angiography technology in different image types of cerebral small vessel disease and makes a review, in order to provide reference for the early diagnosis and prevention of cerebral small vessel disease.

This study investigated a nano drug delivery system built by one sort of modified trimethyl chitosan (TMC). The TMC was modified by cRGDyk, ligand of integrin receptor avβ3. Single factor screening was used to optimize the prescription in which the particle sizes of TMC nanoparticle (TMC NPs) and cRGDyk modified TMC nanoparticle (C-TMC NPs) were (240.3 ± 4.2) nm and (259.5 ± 3.3) nm. Electric potential of those two nanoparticles were (33.5 ± 0.8) mV and (25.7 ± 1.6) mV. Encapsulation efficiencies were (76.0 ± 2.2) % and (74.4 ± 2.0) %. Drug loading efficacies were (50.1 ± 2.1) % and (26.1 ± 1.0) %. Then the cellular uptake, uptake mechanism and transport efficacy of TMC NPs and C-TMC NPs were investigated using Caco-2 cell line. The uptake rate and accumulating drug transit dose of C-TMC NPs were 1.98 and 2.84 times higher than TMC NPs, separately. Mechanism investigations revealed that caveolae-mediated endocytosis, clathrin-mediated endocytosis and macropinocytosis were involved in the intercellular uptake of both TMC NPs and C-TMC NPs. What is more, free cRGDyk could remarkably inhibit the uptake of C-TMC NPs.

Objective To study the technique and clinical significance of percutaneous biopsy of transplanted liver guided by CT.Methods 19 transplanted liver were undergone 25 times of percutaneous biopsy and the pathomorphologic changes were demonstrated by HE staining.Results The successful rate of the percutaneous biopsy was 100% for all the 25 times of this procedure,including acute rejection on 9 episodes,preservation perfusion retrauma in 6,bile duct strictures in 4,drug-induced injury in 4,chronic rejection in 1 and acute hepatic necrosis in 1.Conclusions CT-guided percutaneous biopsy is an important method for diagnosing transplanted liver injury and providing great value for distinguishment of the causes for transplanted liver injury.(J Intervent Radiol,2007,16:855-857)

Purpose To study the clinicopathologic features and differential diagnosis of serous microcystic adenoma of pancreas ( SMAP) . Methods Immunohistochemical study was carried out, and the clinical and pathologic features were evaluated in 11 cases of SMAP, and review the literatures. Results The age of onset of 11 cases of SMAP ranged from 41~68 years ( average=55 years) . All of them were females. The clinical presentations were right upper abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and weight loss. Five tumors located in the pancreas head (45. 5%). Grossly, ten cases were solitary, one case was multiple. The boundary of tumor was clear, the cut surface of tumor was honeycomb. Histologic examination showed that the tumors were made up of small sized capsule wall lining of single-layer flat or cube epithelial cell. The cytoplasm was clear, nucleus was small and no atypical features. Immunohistochemical study showed that all of the 11 cases were positive for CK, CK7, CK18, CK19, EMA, 3 cases were positive for NSE,α-ACT, all of the 11 cases were negative for CgA, Syn, vimentin, TG, Calretinin. Ki-67<1%. Vascular vessels were positive for D2-40 and CD34. Conclusions SMAP is a very rare benign tumor of pancreas. It should be distinguished from oligo-cystic cystadenoma, pseudocyst, mucinous cystadenoma, lymphangioma and capillary hemangioma, mesothelioma.

Objective To assess the clinical value of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) particles as embolic material in patients with primary hepatic cancer (PHC). Methods Twenty patients with PHC underwent TACE. The mixed emulsion of chemotherapy agents and lipiodol was given to embolize the tumor vssTranscatheter arterial chemoembolization using polyvinyl alcohol feeding artery of tumors. The tumors size, response rate and Alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP) value were monitored respectively at the end of the first month, the third month, the sixth month and the first year after TACE. The changes of liver function, including serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and total bilirubin (TBILI), were recorded within 1 week and 1 month after TACE. The time to progression and the overall survival were recorded. Results Compared with pre-TACE, the tumor size decreased obviously at the end of the first month, the third month, the sixth month and the first year after TACE (P<0.05), the response rate reached 80.00%, 90.00%, 95.00% and 95.00%, respectively. The AFP value decreased obviously. Serum AST, ALT and TBILI significantly increased in the first week after TACE (P<0.05), but returned to preoperative level within 1 month. The average follow-up time was (19.8±7.0) months (range 12-32 months), the time to progression was (17.0±6.8) months, and the overall survival was (19.3±7.0) months. Conclusion PVA particles are optimal embolic material for TACE of PHC. Superselective embolization is necessary in TACE to achieve effective tumor devascularization and reduce liver damage.

The water-soluble polysaccharide PNM isolated from the submerged culture of Phellinus nigiricans by hot water extraction and ethanol precipitation, was purified by freeze thawing, methods of Sevag, and then fractionated by Sepharose CL-6B gel filtration chromatography, giving a polysaccharide fraction named as PNMⅠ. HPLC analysis showed that PNMⅠwas a homogeneous polysaccharide, with a weight-average molecular weight of 29 kDa. GC analysis indicated that PNMⅠis a heteropolysaccharide composed of mannose, galactose and glucose with a ratio of 0.35:0.44:1.00. Pharmaceutical experiments showed both PNM and PNMⅠ have a significant effect on the immunomodulatory activities of murine splenic lymphocytes in vitro. Also PNMⅠ could inhibit the growth of sarcoma 180 solid tumor in vivo.

The effects of four kinds of carbon sources and nine kinds of nitrogen sources on the fungus Phellinus nigricans mycelia were studied.The four kinds of carbon source are sucrose,lactose,glucose,soluble starch.The nine kinds of nitrogen source are corn meal,wheat bran,potato,soybean meal,yeast extract powder,peptone,potassium nitrate,ammonium nitrate,and urea.Polysaccharides were extracted from different generations of mycelia and the contents,monosaccharide components and molecular weight were analyzed.The results were that the optical carbon source and nitrogen source were starch and corn meal.The optical combination was sucrose and corn meal.The properties of polysaccharides from different generations of mycelia were stable.
