0.05), but the lesion detection sensitivity of SSD and Raysum display were lower than that of UGI(? 2=4.17,7.11, and 5.14,4.17, P0.05). Excess fluid remained in the stomach and patient respiratory movement during breath holds were the reasons causing severe artifacts (6.1%) that influenced the diagnostic evaluation. Conclusion The performance of CTVG was equivalent to UGI in the detection of advanced gastric carcinoma and superior to UGI in the Borrmann′s classification. CTVG has potential in the detection of early gastric carcinoma. The value of SSD and Raysum display was limited in the evaluation of gastric carcinoma when used alone clinically.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effectiveness and economics of 10 mg/d rosuvastatin and 20 mg/d atorvastatin in the treatment of hyperlipidemia (HLP). METHODS:The information of 180 HLP patients selected from Tianmen Municipal First People's Hospital during Mar. 2015-Feb. 2016 were divided into group A and B according to medication regimen,with 90 cases in each group. Group A was given Atorvastatin calcium tablet 20 mg,qd;group B was given Rosuvastatin calcium tablet 10 mg,qd. Treatment course of 2 groups lasted for 8 weeks. Blood lipid indexes before and after treatment,lipid-lowering efficacy,the rate of qualified blood lipid and the occurrence of ADR after treatment were compared between 2 groups. Cost-effectiveness analysis was adopted for economic evaluation. RESULTS:Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in the levels of blood lipid in-dexes between 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,TC and LDL-C levels of 2 groups were significantly lower than before treat-ment,and those of group B were significantly lower than those of group A,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Total response rate of lipid-lowering in group B(97.78％)was significantly higher than group A(86.67％),and the rate of qualified blood lipid (66.67％)was also significantly higher than group A(51.11％),with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups (P>0.05). The costs of group A and B were 488.32,436.24 yuan,and cost-effectiveness ratios were 5.63,4.46;incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was -4.69. The plan of group B had cost-effective-ness advantage. The results of cost-effectiveness analysis were supported by sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSIONS:In the view of short-term efficacy,10 mg/d rosuvastatin plan is better than 20 mg/d atorvastatin plan in lowering lipid and has cost-effectiveness advantage,and both have similar safety.

Objective: To observe the clinical effect and infra-red thermogram changes for acute lumbar sprain. Methods: All 295 cases with acute lumbar sprain were randomly divided into an electroacupuncture group (147 cases) and medication group (148 cases). The cases in electroacupuncture group were treated by needling Houxi (SI 3), whereas those in the medication group were treated with Meloxicam tablet. The infra-red thermogram was observed before and after treatment. Results: The recovery and effective rates in the electroacupuncture group were 71.4% and 93.9%, whereas the rates in the medication groups were 42.6% and 87.2% (P＜0.01). The temperature differences via the thermogram in the electroacupuncture and medication groups were 2.52℃ and 0.80℃ (P＜0.01), indicating a significant difference.Conclusion: Both electroacupuncture and medication could obtain significant effect for acute lumbar sprain; however, electroacupuncture obtained a better overall effect and a more substantial temperature-raising effect in the thermogram than medication.

BACKGROUND:Among many transplanted cells,adult autologous bone barrow-derived mononuclear cells have beenused in clinical practice because they are easy to be obtained,without immunological rejection and ethical disputationand other advantages.How to distinguish donor cells from receptors and observe the survival of donor cells following stem cell transplantation still trouble people.OBJECTIVE: superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)particles-labeled bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells from minipigs were used to observe the feasibility of in vivo tracking with magnetic resonance imaging(MRI).DESIGN:A controlled observation experiment.SETTING:Institute of Cardiovascular Disease,Zhongda Hospital Affiliated to Southeast University.MATERIALS:This experiment was carried out in the Institute of Cardiovascular Disease,Zhongda Hospital Affiliated to Southeast University between April 2006 and August 2006.Healthy Chinese minipigs,aged 3 to 4 months,weighing from 20 to 30 kg,were provided by the Experimental Animal Center of Southeast University[SYXK(Su)2002-0012].METHODS: Autologous bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells of minipigs were isolated and cultured. Bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells in the suspension were traced with SPIO particles.Ferrum in the cells were shown by Prussian blue staining, and cell viability was evaluated by trypan blue exclusion method. Eleven minipigs used for preparation of model of myocardial infarction were divided into experimental group(n=9)and control group(n=2).By means of percutaneous left or right cervical artery or femoral artery puncturation, 1.5 to 2.0 mm balloon was used to occlude 1/3 left anterior descending branch,304 to 405 kPa,60 minutes later,ischemic preconditioning was conducted 3 tO 4 times before operation. When pig models of myocardial infarction were successful that was proved by surface electrocardiogram,bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells were percutaneously injected into coronary artery.Coronary arteriography was performed through femoral artery acupuncture at 24 hours after establishing infarction models.Suspension of bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells was perfused into coronary artery with OTW catheter.Then,the injector and OTW catheter for containing cells were rinsed with normal saline containing heparin and infused with the residual cells within 10 minutes.Non-labeled cells were perfused in 2 minipigs of control group by the same method.Postoperatively, bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells were traced by magnetic resonance and compared with Prussian blue-stained myocardial tissue sections.RESULTS: Seven minipigs of experimental group and one minipig of control group were Involved in the final analysis.One of each group was used for preparation of model of myocardial Infarction.One minipig of experimental group died from anesthetic accident before magnetic resonance.①Bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells all were nearly labeled by SPIO particles. Bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells could further proliferate in culture medium containing Fe2O3-PLL without obvious changes of cellular shape. ②T2+WI showed that 5 of 8 models of myocardial infarction presented fuzzy low-echo signal region in peripheral myocardial infarction after transplantation of labeled cells and the low-echo signal disappeared 4 weeks Iater. Ex vivo T2+WI sequence showed there was a dot-distributed low-echo signal region in the peripheral infarction region.③It was found in histological examination that 5 models(cell number over 106) had Prussian blue-positive cells,which distributed the same as those in magnetic resonance signal reducing region.CONCLUSION:SPIO particles-labeled bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells are safe and effective;T2+ WI is sensitive to tracing SPIO particles-labeled bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells;Magnetic resonance can in vivo trace SPIO particles-labeled stem cells transplanted through coronary artery,magnetic resonance signal change is related with the number of stem cells and division growth.

Objective: To analyze the correlation between plasma trough level of generic imatinib and its metabolism and clinical outcomes in Chinese patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP) . Methods: The 21 patients with CML-CP who enrolled in a clinical trial YMTN 1.0 from Oct 11^th, 2012 to May 8^th, 2013 and received generic imatinib were as study subjects. The correlation between steady plasma trough levels of imatinib and its metabolism with clinical response, age, weight and body surface area (BSA) were evaluated. Results: ①The mean steady plasma trough level of generic imatinib and its metabolism was (1 185.07±417.91) μg/L and (251.53±76.50) μg/L, respectively. ②Age, weight and BSA has no significant effects on plasma trough level of generic imatinib and its metabolism (P>0.05) . ③Patients with steady plasma trough level of generic imatinib more than 1 000 μg/L are possible to have higher major molecular response (MMR) /complete molecular response (CMR) rate than those below 1 000 μg/L (42% vs 0, P<0.05) . Conclusion Plasma trough levels of generic imatinib varied in CML patients. The steady plasma trough levels of generic imatinib is maybe related to molecular response in CML patients.

Background/Aims: Crohn’s disease (CD) primarily affects young female adults of reproductive age. Few studies have been conducted on this population’s ovarian reserve status. The aim of study was to investigate potential risk factors associated with low ovarian reserve, as reflected by serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) in women of reproductive age with CD. Methods: This was a case-control study. Cases included 87 patients with established CD, and healthy controls were matched by age, height and weight in a 1:1 ratio. Serum AMH levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results: The average serum AMH level was significantly lower in CD patients than in control group (2.47±2.08 ng/mL vs. 3.87±1.96 ng/mL, respectively, P<0.001). Serum AMH levels were comparable between CD patients and control group under 25 years of age (4.41±1.52 ng/mL vs. 3.49±2.10 ng/mL, P=0.06), however, serum AMH levels were significantly lower in CD patients over 25 years of age compared to control group (P<0.05). Multivariable analysis showed that an age greater than 25 (odds ratio [OR], 10.03; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.90–52.93, P=0.007), active disease state (OR, 27.99; 95% CI, 6.13–127.95, P<0.001) and thalidomide use (OR, 15.66; 95% CI, 2.22–110.65, P=0.006) were independent risk factors associated with low ovarian reserve (serum AMH levels <2 ng/mL) in CD patients. Conclusions Ovarian reserve is impaired in young women of reproductive age with CD. Age over 25 and an active disease state were both independently associated with low ovarian reserve. Thalidomide use could result in impaired ovarian reserve.
