Objective To evaluate the clinical application of contrast-enhanced digital subtraction MRI in vertebral metastases.Methods 50 patients with vertebral metastases were scanned by contrast-enhanced T_1WI with an injection of Gd-DTPA(0.1 mmol/kg).Digital subtraction were performed between post-contrast-enhanced images and pre-contrast-enhanced images.Vertebral metastases were evaluated by means of a contrast to noise ratio(CNR) and signal to noise ratio(SNR),and boundaries were compared between subtraction MRI images and conventional contrast T_1WI MR images.Results Contrast-enhanced digital subtraction MRI images were better than conventional contrast T_1WI MR images in showing the lesions. All lesions had a higher CNR and SNR on subtraction MR imaging than that on conventional contrast T_1WI MR images.CNR was 155.05 ? 24.73(mean ? standard error) for subtraction MR imaging and11.11?14.26 for conventional contrast T_1WI MR images,(t=35.65,P

Objective To discuss the value of applying psychological therapy for patients with cerebral apoplexy in recovery.Methods In recent years,65 patients with cerebral apoplexy admitted in our hospital were randomly selected and divided into observation group and control group.Patients in the control group only received the conventional treatment and those in the observation group received psychological treatment on the basis of the traditional therapy.Psychological characteristics,activity of daily living and the improvement of nerve function were compared between two groups before and after treatment.Results After treatment,mental improvement,FMA,MBI in the observation group were significantly better than those of control group (P＜0.05).Conclusion To improve the prognosis of patients with cerebral apoplexy effect,physical and mental development should be equally emphasized.Psychological intervention has become a key for stroke rehabilitation treatment,which significantly improves the treatment compliance,rehabilitation and the quality of life in patients.

Objective To observe the effects of hypnosis therapy on rehabilitation of patients with spinal cord injury.Methods The data were randomly selected from 66 cases of patients with spinal cord injury treated in our hospital from November 2011-November 2012.According to the treatment,the patients were divided into research group and control group.Control patients were given routine therapy,and patients in the research group were given hypnosis therapy,we observed and compared the recovery of two groups of patients after treatment.Results After treatment,the spinal cord function score (SCIM) of patients in the research group was better than control group,the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05) After treatment,the depression and anxiety scale (HAMD,HAMA) of patients in the research group was better than control group,the difference had statistical significance (P ＜ 0.05) The quality of life after treatment of research group patients (WHOQOL BREF) was better than control group,the difference had statistical significance (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Hypnosis therapy helps to improve depression and anxiety in patients with spinal cord injury,improve patients with spinal cord function independently,should be widely used in clinical treatment and promotion.

Objective To analyze the therapeutic effect of acute stroke dysphagia using rehabilitation therapy.Methods A total of 94 cases diagnosed with dysphagia after acute stroke were randomly selected from January 2012 to May 2013 in our hospital.The patients were equally divided into control group and research group.The control group received the conventional support treatment and the research group received comprehensive rehabilitation treatment.The results of swallowing dysfunction recovery of two groups were compared.Results After the treatment for 3 weeks,swallowing disorder degree score and swallowing function ratings were improved in both groups and the research group's scores were significantly higher than those of the control group (P ＜0.05) Conclusion Application of comprehensive rehabilitation treatment for dysphagia in patients with acute stroke has significant curative effect and is worth promoting.

Objective:To prepare superparamagnetic iron oxide(SPIO) nanoparticles and to observe its acute toxicity on mice,so as to pave a way for further study on its long-term toxicity and on its role as a carrier in magnetic resonance gene imaging.Methods: The SPIO nanoparticle was obtained by means of co-precipitation,and its physical and chemical parameters were determined by transmission electron microscope,atomic force microscope,and 1.5 T super conduct MR,etc.According to the administration pathway and doses of SPIO,90 mice were divided into oral administration(with a total dose of 2 104.8 mg/kg and a volume of 40 ml/kg,n=30),intravenous injection(a total dose of 438.5 mg/kg and a volume of 25 ml/kg,n=30) and intraperitoneal injection(with a total dose 1 578.6 mg/kg and a volume of 30 ml/kg,n=30) groups.Another 10 mice in each group receiving the same dose of normal saline via the same pathway served as the controls(n=10).The general condition,the major serologic parameters,and the pathological changes of major organs were observed 14 d after administration in each group.Results: We have successfully prepared SPIO,and its core component was Fe3O4 crystal,with a size of 20-35 nm,a T2 relaxivity of 0.155?106 mol-1?sec-1,a specific saturated magnetization of 68.395 68 emu/g,and a retentivity of 21.463 74 Gs.There was no death of mice during the observation.There was no significant difference in serological parameters between mice of different groups and between each experiment group and their corresponding control group.No edema,degeneration and necrosis were seen in the liver,spleen,kidney,heart,and lungs by H-E staining and marrow by Wright staining;only a few blue particles were observed in the liver and spleen in the administration groups by Prussian blue staining,none observed in the control groups.Conclusion: SPIO prepared in the present study meets the requirement of MR imaging,with no acute toxicity to mice,and warrants further study for future MR gene imaging.

The mature seeds and excised embryos of Dalbergia odorifera were used as materials to study the effect of moisture content on their survival, as well as the effect of rapid freezing and vitrification freezing method on seeds and in vitro embryos cryopreservation. The results showed that the germination rate and vigor decreased from 82.67%, 85% to 18.35%, 25% respectively, when the seed moisture content decreased from 15.04% to 8.14%; and the germination rate decreased from 82.67% to 37.50%, 25.37% respectively by vitrification freezing method and rapid freezing method, when the seed moisture content decreased from 15.04% to 9.37%. Among all the moisture content gradient, 12.35% moisture reached the maximal germination rate, which were 63.58% and 50.45% respectively by vitrification freezing and rapid freezing; and when the embryo moisture content was 26.32%, the germination rate decreased from 95.67% to 58.31% and 33.82% respectively by vitrification freezing and rapid freezing. And when the moisture content was in the range of 14.17% -21.34%, the germination rate was a bit of decrease. The experiment results showed that the optimum conditions of seed cryopreservation were: moisture content 12.35%, vitrification freezing; and the optimum conditions of in vitro embryo cryopreservation were: moisture 15.04%, vitrification freezing. In conclusion, the effects of moisture content on germination rate after cryopreservation in D. odorifera seeds and embryo were significant, and vitrification freezing method is much better than rapid freezing method.
