Medical Journal of Chinese People's Liberation Army 2015;40(7):554-558
Objective To investigate whether 18F-FDG uptake can be applied in dosimetry to facilitate a rapid and accurate evaluation of individual radiation dosage after a nuclear accident. Methods Forty-eight Tibetan minipigs were randomly assigned into 6 groups, i.e., 0, 1, 2, 5, 8 and 11Gy groups. Animals in all except 0Gy group received total body irradiation (TBI) with a 8MV X centrifugal linear accelerator, and 18F-FDG combined positron-emission tomography and computed tomography (PET/CT) were carried out before TBI, and also at 6, 24 and 72h after receiving TBI in different doses ranging from 1 to 11Gy. Spleen tissues and blood samples were collected for histological examination, apoptosis, and routine blood analysis. Results Mean standardized uptake values (SUVs) of the spleen showed significant differences between experimental groups and control group. The spleen SUVs at 6h post-irradiation showed significant correlation with radiation dose; Spearman's correlation coefficient was 0.95(P<0.01). Histopathological observations showed that the degree of splenic damage was proportional to the radiation dose. Moreover, flow cytometry revealed that apoptosis was one of the major forms of splenic lymphocyte death. Conclusion In the Tibetan minipig model, it was shown that radiation doses bear a close relationship with the 18F-FDG uptake of spleen. This finding suggests that 18F-FDG PET/CT may be useful for the rapid detection of individual radiation dosage after acute radiation disease (ARD).

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the infection of central venous catheterization in tumor patients with chemotherapy and analyze its risk factors and the role of nursing intervention. METHODS The prospective overall monitoring method was used,including catheterization,maintenance,observation and monitoring. RESULTS Of 446 cases with chemotherapy,the infection rate was 2.24% (10 cases). The infection mainly correlated with age,catheterization time,chemotherapy duration,venous nutrition,complication and hormone. CONCLUSIONS The infection of central venous catheterization is inevitable due to multiple risk factors. The measures to prevent and reduce hospital infection are holding the key steps of central venous catheterization,executing the management system of sterilization,keeping tract smooth,cutting down time of central venous catheterization and strengthening nursing education about central venous catheterization.
