Objective To study the diagnostic value of multi-direction adjusted multiplanar reconstruction (MPR)by 64-slice CT myelography (CTM)in diagnosing cervical nerve injury,and the possibility of the MPR to replace conventional myelography and CT direct-scanning axial images.Methods Twenty-six patients with cervical nerve root injury were examined by conventional myelograpby and 64-slice CT using isotropic parameters.Then multi-direction MPR were performed to display nerve roots on coronal and sagittal planes besides axial images.Twenty-six patients were performed surgical operations and diagnosis were obtained.The coincident diagnosing rate with surgical operations results were compared statistically among multi-direction MPR,direct-scanning axial CT images,conventional myelography.The numbers of images were also compared between axial MPR and direct scanning axial CT images.Results Direct sign of nerve root avulsion was the loss of normal nerve root defect seen in the Isovist filled thecal sac in 6d-slice CT,which was found in 31 nerve roots.Indirect signs included:(1)Traumatic pseudomeningocele: 29 nerve roots showed the leak of Isovist into nerve root sheath,and extended into foramina;(2)Arachnoid cyst: 26 nerve roots clearly displays cystic distension in nerve root,which has low- density fine clew form septation from subarachnoid cavity and no nerve root in the cyst ;(3)Deformity of the subarachnoid space : deformity of thecal sac,partially lack of Isovist into arachnoid space,which was found in 17 nerve roots.The coincident diagnosing rate of cervical nerve root injury by multi-direction adjusted coronal MPR imaging was 92.6% (50/54),which was higher than by axial CT (77.8%,42/54)and conventional myelography (68.5%,37/54),There was significant difference between the conventional myelography, direct-scanning axial CT,multi-direction MPR images (Kappa = 0.686,0.772,0.920, respectively,P

Objective To investigate the etiology and risk factors of stroke in young adults from Southern Sichuan, China to provide a basis for prevention and treatment of stroke. Methods The data of 398 young patients with first-ever stroke (aged 18 to 44) admitted to department of Neurology, the Affiliated Hospital of Luzhou Medical College from 2009 to 2013 was retrospectively analyzed. Four hundred twenty-five cases of stroke (aged greater than or equal to 45) were re?cruited by stratified random sampling to analyze its causes and risk factors in the same period. Results ① Young stroke accounted for 6.09% of all hospitalized stroke patients in which 78.39% of young stroke was ischemic, 64.57%was male and 58.04% aged from 40 to 44. ② According to TOAST etiology classification group, the percentage of large-artery atherosclerosis, small-vessel, cardioembolism, other determined and undetermined reasons were 56.09%, 17.95%, 9.93%, 10.90% and 5.13% in young stroke, respectively. Compared with the elderly group, other determined and undetermined reasons were higher, and the small-vessel was lower in young stroke (P<0.05). Hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage accounted for 50%of Hemorrhage in young group, and the type of Hemorrhage between two groups was no statistically significant.(P>0.05).③ Risk factors analysis revealed that the constituent ratio of smoking (34.92%), hyper?lipidemia (31.41%), alcohol (20.10%), obesity (13.07%), rheumatic heart disease (6.03%) in youth group were higher whereas hypertension(66.12%), diabetes(20.47%)and coronary heart disease(10.82%)were lower in young stroke com?pared with the elderly group (P<0.05). Conclusion ①Large-artery atherosclerosis is the most common etiology of youth ischemic stroke. ② Hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage is the most frequent type in Hemorrhagic stroke. ③ Hyperten?sion, smoking and hyperlipidemia are the most common risk factors to stroke.

Objective To study the changes of soluble intercelluar adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) in serum of neonates with hy-poxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE),and significance of changes of serum sICAM-1 in HIE pathogenesis. Methods There were 17 controls of neonates and their sICAM-1 concentrations in serum were detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) at the critical stage and at the beginning of convalescent stage in 36 cases of HIE neonates and 17 normal neonates. The data were analyzed with analysis of variance, Newman-Keuls q test. Results The concentrations of sICAM-l[(216.64?85.32)?g/L] at the critical stage of 36 cases HIE neonates were significantly higher than those [(6. 16?4.05) ?g/L ] of control group (q = 17. 42 P

As a novel transdermal drug delivery technology of minimally invasive, safe and efficient, microneedles have received increasing attention. The microchannels formation by microneedles onto the skin is a prerequisite and key for microneedles to deliver drugs. However, there is still a lack of systematic evaluation in skin microchannels. This review summarized influencing factors and evaluation methods in microchannels formation and healing by microneedles, including geometric parameters, materials for preparation, drugs, penetration parameters, differences among the skin of subjects, and presence or absence of occlusion. This review provides reference for other scholars to further study the effectiveness and security of microneedle applications.
