BACKGROUND:Percutaneous vertebraplasty is a new means for the treatment of vertebral compression fractures and bone metastases. The multiplaner reconstruction with digital substraction angiography (DSA)-Innova 3D plays an important role in guiding the percutaneous vertebraplasty puncture, which can effectively prevent the leakage of bone cement. OBJECTIVE:To explore the value of DSA-Innova 3D in the guidance of puncture of percutaneous vertebroplasty. METHODS:From March 2014 to September 2014, a total of 72 patients with 94 vertebras were selected for percutaneous vertebraplasty, of whom 36 (48 vertebras) with Innova 3D (experimentalgroup) and 36 (46 vertebras) without Innova 3D (control group). Spiral CT scan was performed in al patients to assess the distribution of bone cement. The imaging quality in the two groups was compared by Mann-Whitney U test. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:CT showed bone cement leakage occurred in 7 of the 36 patients in the control group. Leakages were into the lumber disc in two cases, paravertebral space in two cases, vertebral pedicle in onecase or veins in two cases. However, only one case of bone cement leakage was observed in the experimental group. With the guidance of DSA-Innova 3D, the experimental group had signficantly lower leakage and fluoroscopic time than the control group (P < 0.05). The multiplaner reconstruction with DSA-Innova 3D plays an important role in guiding the percutaneous vertebraplasty puncture, thereby effectively reducing the leakage of bone cement.

Objective The relationship between fever and the recent curative effect of transcatheter arte -rial chemoembolization ( TACE) and the related factors of fever after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization in large hepatocellular carcinoma is discussed in this paper .Methods One hundred and twenty patients with large liver cancer were divided into two groups according to the fever after TACE .The fever in group A ,and there was no fever in group B after TACE .The changes of the lesions in the two groups were compared after the first inter-ventional treatment .The factors affecting the fever after TACE were analyzed .Results The CT was performed at about one and half month after the first intervention .The curative effects of A and B were evaluated by RECIST criteria.Two groups of CR,PR,SD,PD were 0,11.11%,71.11%,17.78%and 0,0,33.33%,66.67%,respec-tively.The difference of the efficiency of OR was statistically significant (P=0.049).The probability of fever of four types of iodine oil deposits are as follows:100%,93.33%,81.93%,0.Blood supply type,middle and severe hepatic arteriovenous fistula,the use of gelatin sponge,tumor necrosis,and the use of iodine oil were more than 25ml may be factors affecting postoperative fever .Conclusion The clinical symptoms of fever after TACE sug-gest that the lesion is well embolization and iodine oil deposit is good ,and the lesion is not easy to progress ,and short-term curative effect is better .The analysis of the factors that affect the postoperative fever may help to eval-uate the curative effect of patients with large hepatocellular carcinoma .

Objective In this study,we aimed at investigating the clinical,laboratory and management characteristics of adolescent-onset SLE patients compared with adult-onset SLE patients.Methods 470 fe- male patients with SLE were divided into two subgroups:adolescent-onset SLE patients and adult-onset SLE patients.The analyzed variables included clinical,laboratory parameters,damage index and outcome charac- teristics.Results In 470 female patients with SLE,there were 98(20.85%)adolescent-onset SLE patients. The following manifestations occurred more frequently in adolescent-onset SLE patients:malar rash,cutaneous vasculitis,proteinuria and abnormal liver function.Adolescent-onset SLE patients had more severe disease features and had significantly higher mean value of SLEDAI.Mortality was higher in adolescent-onset SLE pa- tients than aduh-onset SLE patients.Renal and blood system were the organs that most frequently involved. Conclusion Adolescent-onset SLE patients accounts for roughly 20.85% of all SLE cases.It is necessary to pay more attention to adolescent-onset SLE patients because the management for them is usually more difficult and the prognosis is usually poorer than aduh-onset SLE patients.

Objective To investigate protective effects of dexmedetomidine on oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion(OGD/R)-induced neuronal apoptosis.Methods SH-SY5Y cells were differentiated to neurons with ATRA and followed by TPA.According to the results of preliminary experiment, OGD/R modle was constructed by oxygen-glucose deprivation(OGD) for 12 h and reperfusion(R) for another 12 h.During the start of the OGD, neurons were immediately divided into six groups: group D0(0 μmol/L dexmedetomidine), group D1(0.1 μmol/L dexmedetomidine), group D2 (1 μmol/L dexmedetomidine), group D3 (10 μmol/L dexmedetomidine), group D4(100 μmol/L dexmedetomidine), group D5 (1 000 μmol/L dexmedetomidine).After reperfusion 12 h, the cell viability was evaluated by the method of MTT.The cellular apoptosis was observed by flow cytometry method.The protective effects of different concentration dexmedetomidine on OGD/R-induced neuronal apoptosis were investigated.Then in chosen the exact group having protective effects, endoplasmic reticulum stress specific protein mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (MANF) and pro-apoptotic protein Caspase-3 and CHOP were detected by Westernblot method.Results Compared with group D0, there was no difference on the cell viability and cellular apoptosis induced by OGD/R in groups D1 and D2, but a significant decrease and increase in groups D4 and D5 (P<0.01 or P<0.05).And only group D3 had a neuroprotective effect, significantly increased the cell viability and inhibited the apoptosis (P<0.01).Further studys found that group D3 significantly up-regulated ER stress specific protein MANF (P<0.01) and inhibited up-regulation of Caspase-3 and CHOP (P<0.01).Conclusion These data suggest that 10 μmol/L dexmedetomidine had neuroprotective effect on OGD/R-induced neuronal apoptosis and significantly increased cell viability.Our results also indicate that up-regulation of ER stress specific protein MANF and inhibition of CHOP and Caspase-3 by MANF are involved in the neuroprotective effects of Dexmedetomidine.

Objective:To investigate the biological mechanism of the degeneration of cervical spine in cervical spondylosis(CS) by analyzing the alteration of bone matrix components.Methods:Twenty five degenerative cervical vertebra and 8 blood samples from CS cases were collected.The contents of hyaluronic acid(HA),laminin(LN),pro collagen Ⅲ,collagen Ⅳ were detected by radioimmunoassay.Calcium,phosphate and total protein levels were detected by automatic biochemical analyzer.Results:Ruling out the inference of blood, the contents of HA, LN, pro collagen Ⅲ and collagen Ⅳ were significantly lower in degenerated CS vertebra than in the control, so as the levels of calcium and phosphate. Conclusion:Bone matrix components are obviously decreased during the degeneration of cervical vertebra, resulting in the alleviation of bone tenacity and hardness. This may be one of the biological mechanisms of cervical vertebra degeneration and deterioration of cervical spine biomechanics.

PurposeTo optimize the imaging parameters of clinical MRI scanner in rat pancreas imaging to improve the image quality and to provide better MRI image quality and more economical research method for imaging study of rat pancreas. Materials and Methods Twenty-four healthy male Wistar rats were randomly divided into the conventional sequence (CS) group, the adjustment sequence (AS) group and the optimization sequence (OS) group, with 8 rats in each group. The rats in the CS group were scanned with conventional parameters using a clinical MRI scanner. The principle of parameter adjustment was: parameters associated with T1WI or T2WI imaging quality (TR, TE, slice thickness, NEX, FOV and matrix) was set with four changes, and only one of the six parameters was changed in each scan, image quality was evaluated by two senior radiologists, the parameter corresponded the best image quality evaluated consistently by two radiologists were selected as the optimal imaging parameter, all the optimized parameters were set up step by step in this way which formed the imaging parameters in OS group. The pancreatic signal intensity and signal to noise ratio was compared between CS group and OS group after imaging.Results The optimized sequence parameters in clinical MRI scanner were listed below: T1WI sequence (M3D/FSPGR/15): TR 6 ms, TE 2.5 ms, slice thickness 2.0 mm, NEX 8, FOV 7 cm×7 cm, Matrix 120×120; T2WI sequence (FSE-XL/90): TR 4000 ms, TE 71 ms, slice thickness 2.0 mm, NEX 1, FOV 8 cm×8 cm, Matrix 192×160. The pancreatic SI in T1WI and T2WI sequence of the OS group were significantly higher than those in the CS group (t=5.16 and 3.80,P<0.01), while the pancreatic SNR in T1WI and T2WI sequence of the OS group were significantly higher than those in the CS group (t=5.65 and 3.26,P<0.01).Conclusion The optimized parameters can improve the imaging quality of rat pancreas MRI significantly, thus provide a reference for the related experimental study.

Conclusion For hepatocarcinoma cell line PLC/PRF5 the effect of CNHK600-p53 is stronger than Ad-p53.

AlM:To investigate the influence of phacoemulsification with different incision on tear film.
METHODS:Tear film was monitored in 152 patients (169 eyes) after phacoemulsification. Patients were divided into two groups according to the type of incision:group A (76 patients, 83 eyes) with a 3. 2mm corneoscleral limbus incision phacoemulsification and group B (76 patients, 86 eyes ) with a sclemtic tunnel incision. Tear break-up time ( BUT ) , cornea fluorescein staining ( CFS ) , lid-parallel conjunctival folds ( LlPCOF) and lid-wiper epitheliopathy ( LWE ) were observed at 3d preoperatively and 1wk, 1, 3 and 6mo postoperatively. The results were analyzed using a Chi-square test and t-test with SPSS 17. 0.
RESULTS:BUT: The BUT of two groups was obviously shorter at 1wk, 1mo postoperatively, the differences were statistically significant (P<0. 05), however, there were no statistically significant at 3, 6mo(P>0. 05). CFS score:There was a large increase in CFS at 1wk, 1mo postoperatively, the differences were statistically significant between the two groups(P<0. 05), however, there were no statistically significant at 3, 6mo (P>0. 05). LlPCOF:There was a large increase in LlPCOF at 1wk, 1 and 3mo postoperatively, the differences were statistically significant between the two groups (P<0. 05), however, there were no statistically significant at 6mo (P>0. 05). LWE: There was a large increase in tear osmolarity at 1wk, 1mo postoperatively. The differences were statistically significant between the two groups (P<0. 05), however, there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups at 3, 6mo (P>0. 05).
CONCLUSlON:The stability of tear film in patients with scleral tunnel incision is much better than in patients with 3. 2mm corneoscleral limbus incision phacoemulsification. There is no significant difference between the two groups during later postoperative periods.
