Objective To explore the hurt of susceptibility organs and critical orgens followed by rotavirus (RV) infection of whole body in newborn mouse.Methods RV strain was derived from the stool samples of patients with RV diarrhea and was proved to be long type by methods of ELISA and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). RV was inoculated by the pathways of taking orally and injected to abdominal cavities,respectively. The pathological changes of the newborn mouse model infected with human natural RV by light microscope and electron microscope. The gene probe was marked by digoxin.The direct prove of RV infection in these organs was got by the detection of in situ PCR. Results Pathological changes were found in the small intestinal villus,lamina propria of the stomach and the heart cells of the mice taken RV orally.The mice with intraabdominal RV injection showed pathological changes of the cells in the small intestinal villus,liver and kidneys observed by electron microscope.Shortened small intestinal villus,nuclear membrane disorganization,massive vacuolization,mitochondrial swelling and rough endoplasmic reticulum dilation were observed in the cells of small intestinal.In the liver of the mice,marked mitochondrial swelling and agglutination,cell nucleus pyknosis or collapse,presence of numerous lipid droplets and vacuoles were found in the li-ver cells,with lymphocyte and plasmacyte infiltration.Obvious dilatation and shedding of the microvillus were found in cholangioles.The mitochondria of the proximal convoluted renal tubule showed mild swelling,but the cells in the heart and lung did not display obvious changes.Conclusion RV can damage lots of extra intestinal organs of the newborn mice if RV diffuses to the whole body of the mice.

OBJECTIVETo compare the effect,safety,and advantage of flexible fixation with paperboard and pad versus short leg plaster in treating the fifth metatarsal base fracture,and establish the standard of diagnosis and treatment of the fifth metatarsal base fractures in flexible fixation with paperboard and pad.

METHODSFrom June 2010 to March 2013,59 patients with the fifth metatarsal base fracture were treated with paperboard and pad fixation or short leg plaster. Patients were enrolled and divided into paperboard and pad treatment group (paperboard group) and short leg plaster treatment group (plaster group) randomly according to the random number table. In paperboard group,there were 29 cases including 9 males and 20 females with an average age of (51.79±11.40) years old; the average course of injury was (11.59±6.58) hours. In plaster group, there were 30 cases including 9 males and 21 females with an average age of (52.13+17.34) years old ;the average course of injury was (11.03±7.06) hours. According to whether the fracture line across the articular surface, in paperboard group there were 14 cases of type A,15 of type B; in plaster group,16 of type A, 14 of type B. According to the degree of dislocation,in paperboard group there were 16 cases of degree I ,13 of degree II ; in plaster group,20 were degree I ,10 were degree II. Fracture was restored according to the type in manual. Patients in paperboard group were treated with paperboard and pad, and patients in plaster group were treated with short leg plaster. Fracture was fixed for 4 to 6 weeks according to fracture healing. On the 2nd, 4th,6th, 8th week and 3rd, 6th month after fixation, patients were followed up, and the foot function score was used to evaluate the function of injured foot. X-ray of injured foot was taken on the 2nd, 4th, 6th and 8th week were used to assess fracture healing.

RESULTSAll patients got complete follow-up. The X-ray result showed that all fracture reached at clinical healing on the 8th week after fixation without skin ulcer,nonunion and displacement of fracture. From the 4th to 8th week after fixation, paperboard group had a higher X-ray score than plaster group, but the difference between two groups had no statistically significance. Repeated analysis result showed that there was interact at different time point and between groups,the difference had statistically significance (P<0.01). The foot function score showed that at all time point, paperboard group had a higher score than plaster group, and on the 2nd, 4th, and 6th week, it had statistically significant difference(P<0.01) between two groups. On the 6th months after fixation,the excellent and good rate of paperboard group was 93.10%, higher than that of plaster group, which was 86.67%. But it had no statistically difference(P=0.483) between two groups.

CONCLUSIONUsing paperboard and pad fixation to treat the fifth metatarsal base fracture has the advantage of simplicity operating,reliable fixation, satisfactory effects, easily obtainable material.

Objective To investigate the imaging characteristics and diagnostic value of tri-phase dynamic enhancement scan with CT for acute renal infarction. Methods The image features of CT plain scan and tri-phase dynamic enhancement scan of 10 patients (19 sides) with acute renal infarction were retrospectively analyzed, and the CTA expression of 6 patients were observed. Results Fourteen acute renal infarction lesions of 10 cases were diagnosed. The CT scan showed there were 4 cases with enlargement of kidney, and the other 6 cases were of no abnormality. The tri-phase enhancement CT scan showed there were 6 cases of unilateral renal infarction and 4 cases of bilateral renal infarction, which totally involving 14 sides. The acute renal infarction lesions lacked of high density region in the corticomedullary in cortical phase, and there were wedge-shaped hypodense area, even low density of full kidney in parenchymal phase and pyelographic phase. The a-cute renal infarction lesions were revealed better in parenchymal phase and pyelographic phase than in cortical phase. Six cases of CTA re-vealed the responsible vessels of renal infarction lesions and the other vascular diseases. Conclusion CT tri-phase dynamic enhancement scan has important value in the diagnosis of acute renal infarction, and CTA can identify the responsible vessels of renal infarction lesions.

Objective To investigate the spiral CT findings in hemopathic patients with druginduced pulmonary injury.Methods CT images obtained in 11patients with drug-induced pulmonary injury were retrospectively analyzed.Six patients had antineoplastic agent-induced pulmonary injury and 5 patients had non-neoplastic agent-induced pulmonary injury (immunosuppressor in 2 patients,antifungal in 2 patients,antineoplastic immunomodulators in 1 patient).CT findings were reviewed by a chest radiologist.Results All 11patients had parenchymal abnormalities on MSCT scans,including ground-glass opacities( n =8 ),consolidation( n =5 ),interlobular septal thickening( n =3 ) and focal fibrosis ( n =2 ).The abnormalities were bilateral and asymmetric in all patients.They were mainly in the peripheral lung regions in 6 patients,in the central lung regions in four,and irregularly located in one.The abnormalities involved mainly the lower lung zones in six patients,the upper lung zones in two,and all lung zones homogeneously in three.One patient had fluid in bilateral pleural cavities.Three patients were given the same agent once more after the imaging turned to normal,and they presented with same clinical symptoms and similar but more serious imaging findings.Conclusions Drug-induced pulmonary injury usually manifests as areas of ground-glass opacity and consolidation,which most commonly involves the peripheral lungs and lower lung zones.Drug-induced pulmonary injury shows reproducible but more serious lesions when the patient is given the same agent once more.

Objective To investigate the expressions of intermedin /adrenomeduliin 2 (IMD/AM2) and its receptor calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CRLR) in the kidney of rats after renal ischemia reperfusion injury(IRI). Methods Male Wistar rats were divided randomly into two groups: sham group and operation group. Renal IRI model was induced by clamping both renal arteries. Blood and kidney were harversted at 0 h, 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h after reperfusion, respectively. Renal histological changes were semi-quantitated. Expressions of IMD and CRLR in the kidney were detected by Western blot, and the content of IMD in serum was measured by radioimmunity at 12 h, 48 h, 72 h after repeffusion. Results Kidneys of renal IRI model rats displayed significant pathologic changes, and the changes were much severer at 48 h after reperfusion. The expressions of IMD and CRLR in kidney were significantly up-regnlated at 12 h, 48 h, 72 h after renal IRI (P<0.01). The level of IMD in serum increased at 12 h, 48 h, 72 h after renal IRI (P<0.05). Conclusion The expressions of IMD and its receptor are up-regulated in the kidney after renal IRI, which may participate in the pathophysiological changes induced by renal IRI.
