With the increasing in-depth researches and clinical applications of MRI, PET and molecular imaging, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of detecting lymph node metastases have also been improved. Incorporating techniques such as various pulse sequences, contrast enhancement and lymph-node contrast agents has made MRI a superior method for detecting lymph node metastasis of breast cancer in clinical settings.

Since 1980s,the ultrasonography has been applied to diagnose cruciate ligament injury of the keen joint and undergone continuous development.At present,cruciate ligament injury of the keen joint can be diagnosed by many examination methods,such as X-ray,arthroscopy,magnetic resonance and ultrasonography.X-ray and arthroscopy are invasive.Magnetic resonance is accurate,but expensive.Ultrasonography could clearly display the anatomic and damaged structure of the cruciate ligament.Ultrasonography is an economical,practical,and noninvasive diagnostic method,and it is valuable in diagnosis of the injured cruciate ligamengt of the knee joint.This manuscript comprehensively analyzes the development of functional anatomy,biomechanics,clinical manifestation,type of damage and imaging features of the injured cruciate ligamengt of the knee joint.The imaging examination of posterior cruciate ligament used by high-frequency and low-frequency ultrasound is valuable for diagnosis of injured anterior cruciate ligament.

The antiapoptotic mechanisms of cell transplantation have been paid wide attention in the process of the treatment of cerebral ischemic injtry.The transplanted cells play their roles of mtiapoptotic effect through releasing growth factors and nutritional factors,direct bonding,promoting angiogenesis,and anti-inflammation.

Objective To evaluate MRI characteristics of solid papillary carcinomas (SPCs) in situ of the breast.Methods A retrospective study included 5 patients with pathologically confirmed SPC in situ was performed.MRI data before operation including conventional MRI,dynamic contrast enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) and DWI were analyzed.Results All the lesions showed iso/hypointensity on T1 FSPGR sequence,iso/hyperintensity on FSE T2WI sequence and STIR sequence.Mass enhancements were observed for all lesions with oval or irregular shapes on DCE-MRI.The margin of lesions were circumscribed,and internal enhancements were homogeneous or heterogeneous.Time intensity curve appeared a rapid increase in initial contrast phases and platform or outflow types in delayed phases.All the lesions on DWI showed slightly hyperintensity with the ADC value range from 1.34 × 10-3 mm2/s to 1.96)× 10-3 mm2/s.Conclusion MRI manifestations of SPC are characteristics,which may provide valuable information to distinguish SPC in situ from other invasive breast carcinomas.

Objective To explore the impact of hyperglycemia on Hypersensitive C-reaction protein (hsCRP),B-type natriuretic peptide(BNP) and ventricular remodeling in elder patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods One hundred and twenty elder patients with AMI are divided into hyperglycemia group(blood sugar in admission ＞ 7.8 mmol/L) and non-glycemia group(blood sugar in admission ≤7.8 mmol/L).The levels of blood sugar in admission,hsCRP,BNP were detected.LVEF,LVEDD,LVESD,WMS were observed by cardiac echo in admission and two weeks after therapy.Results The blood sugar in admission,hsCRP and BNP of the patients in hyperglycemia group were (9.6 ± 0.6) mmol/L,(1 750.6 ±677.1) ng/L,(56.1 ±38.6) ng/L,higher than those in non-glycemia group (t =38.679 and P =0.000; t =11.941 and P =0.000; t =3.288 and P ＜0.01,respectively).LVEF,LVEDD,LVESD and WMS of patients in hyperglycemia group didn't show statistical significance before and after therapy.However,there were significant in hyperglycemia group (t =2.049 and P =0.043,t =2.836 and P =0.005,t =3.814 and P =0.000,t =2.086 and P =0.039,respectively).Conclusion Hyperglycemia can reduce the increase of hsCRP and BNP,which has an impact on hsCRP,BNP and ventricular remodeling in elder patients with acute myocardial infarction,but the mechanism need to further research.

Objective To explore the relationship between the level of morning blood pressure surge (MBPS) and High-sensitivity C-reactive protein( hs-CRP) in acute coronary events among old patients and to evaluate their clinical value. Methods One hundred and twenty - three patients with coronary disease were divided into two groups, each of which was old myocardial infarction(OMI, n = 55) and old myocardial infarction with acute cardiovascular syndrome (OMI + ACS, n =68). The control group includes the patients without coronary disease( n =50). The patients who have infection, malignant tumors, liver and kidney dysfunction, blood diseases, valvular heart diseases, congenital heart diseases, aortic dissection,secondary hypertension were not included. All groups were received 24 hours ambulatory blood pressure monitoring to calculate MBPS and the determination of hs-CRP in serum. Results Compared with each two groups, the levels of MBPS and hs-CRP in OMI group were significantly higher than those of the control group (0. 01 ＜ P ＜0. 05) , and had more significance in the other groups ( P ＜0.01). The levels of MBPS and hs-CRP had positive relationship in coronary events in the elderly ( r =0. 76, P ＜0. 01) . Conclusion The level of MBPS is positively correlated with serum hs-CRP which is one of key risk factors of inflammatory reactions by impairing vessels in body. The two factors both play important roles in the occurrence and the development of coronary events among old patients. They both have important clinical value in recurrent acute coronary events among old patients.

From March 2000 to March 2003,15 cases of post internal fixation of fractures and arthroplasty infection were selected from Department of Traumatic Orthopedics,Tianjin Hospital,including 6 males and 9 females.The average age of re-operation was 56 years old.The average time from the primary surgery to diagnosis of infection was 0-19 months.Of the 15 cases,4 of arthroplasty infection underwent prosthesis extraction and temporary fixation with bone cement containing antibiotic and underwent another arthroplasty 6 months later.Of 11 cases of infection following internal fixation,the internal fixation was effective in 2 cases,and the fixation was removed after fracture healing,and ineffective in 9 cases.The fixation was removed primarily and focus of infection was cleared,lavaged with antibiotic solution,and another internal fixation was performed.The pus samples of 15 cases showed positive.Eleven cases(73.3%) had chronic infection including 9 occurring following fracture fixation and 2 following arthroplasty.Four cases(26.7%) had acute infection,including 2 occurring following arthroplasty and 2 following fracture fixation.No infection caused by blood circulation was found.The Gram-positive bacteria,staphylococcus aurens,staphylococcus epidermidis,and enterococcus occupied the most part of the infections in spite of the location and type of the infections,and Gram-positive bacteria-staphylococcus aurens was the most common.The order of the antibiotics sensitivity was Vancomycin,Rifampicin,Gentamicin,and Cephazoline.In addition,antibiotics sensitivity was varied in different infections.In samples of 15 cases,2 cases were sensitive to two bacteria at the same time following fracture fixation.The staphylococcus aurens,staphylococcus epidermidis,and enterococus are the high risk of injection following internal fixation of fractures and arthroplasty.The sensitive antibiotics and long-term medication are effective methods to treat the infection.
