In future the hospital plans to further improve the policy for rewarding writers of research papers and encourage quality academic papers to be published in key international journals.

Objective To investigate changes of striatal DAT following hypoxic ischemic (HI)brain injury in newborn piglets using 11C-N-2-carbomethoxy-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-tropane (CFT) PET/CT,and to evaluate the value of 11C-CFT PET/CT in brain injury.Methods Newborn piglets with HI brain injury (n =20) were taken as a model group,and five piglets were used as a control group.Radioligand 11CCFT (55.5-74.0 MBq) was injected through the jugular vein,and PET/CT imaging was performed to observe the changes of striatal DAT in newborn piglets.The ST/occipital lobe (OC) ratio was calculated.Model group was divided into 0-6 h,20-24 h,44-48 h and 68-72 h sub-groups after HI in accordance with the imaging time.The piglets were sacrificed immediately after 11C-CFT PET/CT scanning,and then the brains were removed for pathological analysis.Data analysis was performed with one-way analysis of variance and Pearson linear correlation analysis.Results After intravenous injection of 11C-CFT,the radioactivity accumulation in cortical,striatum,and cerebellum was shown clearly in the control and model groups.The radioactivity accumulation was lower in the white matter.The radioactivity in cortical and cerebellum exhibited decreased with time,while the striatum was still clear.After HI,the ST/OC activity ratio in the striatum was initially increased,and the ratio of 0-6 h group (1.34 ± 0.04) was statistically significant compared with that of thecontrol group (1.18 ± 0.06 ; F =4.658,P ＜ 0.05),followed by a gradual decrease.ST/OC ratios of other HI subgroups were 1.27 ±0.01,1.27 ±0.10 and 1.18 ±0.05,respectively.There was a positive correlation between the number of DAT positive neurons ((13 ± 3),(13 ± 4),(8 ±3) and (4 ±4)/high power field) and 11C-CFT ST/OC activity ratios (r =0.844,P ＜0.05).Conclusion 11C-CFT PET/CT study can accurately reflect the changes of DAT in the striatum,and the amount of DAT is related to the severity of the ischemic insult in a newborn piglet model of HI.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental disorder causing great distress to individuals, families and even society, and there is not yet effective way of unified prevention and treatment up till now. Lots of neuroimaging techniques, however, such as the magnetic resonance imaging, are widely used to the study of the pathogenesis of PTSD with the development of medical imaging. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can be applied to detect the abnormalities not only of the brain morphology but also of the function of various cerebral areas and neural circuit, and plays an important role in studying the pathogenesis of psychiatric diseases. In this paper, we mainly review the task-related and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging studies of the PTSD, and finally suggest possible directions for future research.
