Positive rate of ASCA and PAB in the diagnosis of CD were 28.6% and 38.1%.ANCA associated with GAB detection in the diagnosis of UC specific degree was 60%,ASCA associated with PAB detection in the diagnosis of CD specific degree was 75%.Conclusion Serum inflammatory bowel disease antibody spectrum in ASCA,ANCA,GBA and PAB four antibod-ies of joint detection has important guiding value to the diagnosis of IBD,also can be used as one of UC and CD in the differ-ential diagnosis methods.

Objective To investigate MRI features of heat stroke (HS) and 1H-MRS in monitoring clinical outcome.Methods Six cases(4 males,2 females) of HS patients,aged 43-75 years old were retrospectively studied.The patients were divided into 4 severe cases (2 cases with coma for 4 hours,2 patients with persistent coma) and 2 moderate cases according to initial Glasgow coma scale (GCS) at the time of hospital admission.All patients underwent T1WI,T2WI,FLAIR,DWI,SWI,multi voxel 1H-MRS scans and the ratios of NAA/Cr,Cho/Cr,and NAA/Cho were calculated.One case of severe coma died on the next day.Follow-up imaging and brain 1H-MRS were performed on other 5 patients on the 7th and 15th day after the first examination.The imaging results were compared with clinical outcome.Results MRI features of HS for severe coma patients were iso-intensity on T1WI,hyper-intensity on T2WI,FLAIR and DWI,heterogeneous signal intensity on ADC.The infratentorial lesions distributed in the cerebellum,dentate nucleus and cerebellar arm (3 cases),and the supratentorial lesions distributed in the parahippocampal gyrus (2 cases),parietal lobe (2 cases),and temporal lobe (1 cases).The lesions could be multiple,and the cerebellum and the parahippocampal gyrus were most common involved.SWI showed focal hemorrhage in 2 cases,which located in the brainstem and parietal lobe.No obvious MRI abnormality was found in 2 cases of moderate coma patients.The ratios of NAA/Cr,Cho/Cr,and NAA/Cho for severe coma patients were 0.67 ±0.09,0.94 ±0.16 and 0.70±0.12,respectively,which for moderate coma patients were 0.87±0.12,0.95±0.13,and 0.94±0.08,respectively.The NAA/Cr and NAA/Cho ratios decreased and Cho/Cr mild decreased in the severe coma patients when compared with the moderate coma patients.One patient with persistent coma had expanded lesions on follow-up study.NAA/Cr,NAA/Cho and Cho/Cr were 0.63± 0.07,0.67 ±0.10,and 0.96 ±0.05,respectively.Two cases had smaller lesions on follow-up study with NAA/Cr and NAA/Cho ratio increased,which were 1.02±0.13 and 0.96±0.11,respectively.GCS was turned to 14.NAA/Cr and NAA/Cho for moderate coma patients were 1.17±0.10 and 1.21 ±0.07,respectively.Conclusions Severe HS patients present with cerebral edema and hemorrhage.1H-MRS can be an important index for monitoring the severity of HS.The longer the duration of coma,the worse prognosis may happen.

ObjectiveTo discuss the central modulating mechanisms while acupuncturing the Stomach 36[ST36(Zusanli)]by brain functional imaging with positron emission tomography (PET).MethodsPET imaging of whole brain was performed in a group of six healthy subjects during two stimulation paradigms: pseudo acupuncture and real acupuncture at acupoint ST36(Zusanli). The data on cerebral glycometabolism,obtained by using PET,was analyzed by using statistical parametric mapping (SPM).ResultsThere was certain increase of glycometabolism in ipsilateral hypothalamus,back of medulla oblongata;bilateral insular lobe; contralateral paracentral lobule,superior part of precentral and postcentral gyrus,opercular part of frontal and temporal lobe,middle part of cingulate gyrus,head of caudate nucleus,middle part of the back of midbrain and pons,and deep part of cerebellum,whereas decrease in ipsilateral superior part of precentral and postcentral gyrus and lateral part of ipsilateral anterior cerebellar lobe,while acupuncturing at acupoint ST36(Zusanli on the right leg).ConclusionsThe central modulating mechanisms of acupuncturing ST36 are realized by neural and neuroendocrine network modulation mechanisms of vegetative nerve center in cortex and subcortex.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of leuprolide acetate in the treatment of endometriosis. Methods From Nov. 2007 to Oct. 2012, the patients who confirmed to be endometriosis were randomly divided into test group of 113 cases and control group of 116 cases. The test drug was the sustained-release agent of leuprolide acetate. The control drug was Enantone. The drugs were used for 3 times in total. After treatment, the ovarian mass volumes measured with type-B ultrasound, the scores of the patient′s subjective symptoms during non-menstrual and menstruation days, the pelvic signs during non-menstrual days, the changes of hormones [estradiol (E2), FSH, LH], and adverse events were observed. Results After the treatment, the rate of changes of ovarian mass volume (among them, at 12 weeks after the first injection, the median was -55.83% in the test group, -68.22% in the control group, P=0.336), the distinct improvement rate of symptom scores and pelvic signs during non-menstrual days [among them, at 12 weeks after the first injection, the rate of lower abdomen pain was 47.5%(48/101) in the test group, 44.0%(44/100) in the control group, P=0.881], the hormone (E2, FSH, LH) levels [among them, at 12 weeks after the first injection, the serum level of E2, was (33±38) pmol/L in the test group, (38± 40) pmol/L in the control group, P=0.414;the serum level of FSH, was (5.1±2.8) U/L in the test group, (5.3± 2.3) U/L in the control group, P=0.666;the serum level of LH, was (0.6±0.8) U/L in the test group, (0.6±0.9) U/L in the control group, P=0.907], had no statistically significant difference between the two groups (all P>0.05). The distinct improvement rate and improvement rate of symptom (lower abdomen pain, low back pain) scores during menstruation days at 12 weeks after the first injection, the rates of lower abdomen pain were 73.9%(34/46), 15.2%(7/46) respectively in the test group, 72.3%(34/47), 2.1%(1/47) respectively in the control group, had statistically significant difference between the two groups (P=0.026). There was no serious adverse event occurred in both two groups. The incidence rate of adverse event was 33.6%(38/113) in test group, 23.2% (27/116) in control group, there was no significant difference between the two groups (P=0.082). Conclusion Leuprolide acetate is effective and safe in the treatment of endometriosis.

Objective To evaluate the effect of early intervention in preschool children anxiety. Methods Children with Spence anxiety preschool scale score≥48 points were randomly divided into the intervention group and monitor group. The parents of children in intervention group were educated with a total of 6 collective curriculum of children's anxiety management, while the monitor group were followed up only. All the children were evaluated by scale on the third month, sixth month, one year and one and a half years respectively, and then the differences of the two groups were compared. Results The average score of the intervention group decreased continuously on the third month, sixth month,one year and one and a half years,and the differences of the two groups were statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion Early short-term education for parents can relieve their preschool children's anxiety effectively with long term effect.

OBJECTIVETo explore the experimental method of obtaining position emission tonogiaphy (PET) imaging evidence of changes in cerebral function by puncturing the Stomach 36 (ST36, Zusanli) acupoint.

METHODSData on changes of cerebral glycometabolism were obtained from six healthy male volunteers with positron emission tomography. Visual experimental evidence, as well as statistical parametric mapping (SPM), was gathered while puncturing the ST36 (Zusanli, right leg) acupoint.

RESULTSThere was increased glycometabolism in the hypothalamus, head of the caudate nucleus, temporal lobe, the sinistral cerebellum, postcentral gyrus, and brain stem while the acupoint ST36 was being punctured.

CONCLUSIONSAcupuncture on ST36 can lead to increase in glycometabolism in the vegetative nerve centers, which is correlated with gastric function. Visual experimental evidence of ST36 acupuncturing on functional gastrointestinal disorder was obtained in our study.
