Objective Toinvestigatetheapplicativevalueof3D-DSAandheadMRIorCTfusion technology for guiding the individualized treatment of intracranial arteriovenous malformation (AVM ). Methods Twenty-onepatientswithAVMdiagnosedwithDSAattheDepartmentofNeurosurgery,Nanjing General Hospital of Nanjing Military Command from January 2015 to May 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. All patients performed DSA,MRI,and CT scan respectively before procedure,and they also performed 3 D-DSA and MRI or CT fusion. Of the 21 patients,15 performed MRI and 3D-DSA fusion,6 performed CT and 3D-DSA fusion. According to the image fusion results of the patients,the individualized treatment regimens were further developed,including microsurgical resection,endovascular embolization,and stereotactic radiotherapy (alone or combined treatment). The patients were followed up and observed for 2 to 6 months after procedure.Results Fromthe3D-DSAwithheadMRIorCTfusionimagesofthepatientsbeforetheprocedure not only could observe the vascular architecture of AVM,the relationship between the niduses and the surrounding nerve structures,but also could precisely locate the positions of AVM with small aneurysms or tiny AVMs. According to the results of image fusion,17 patients with AVM were treated with microsurgical resection,2 were treated with interventional embolization and stereotactic radiotherapy,and 2 were treated with stereotactic radiotherapy only. Of the 17 patients with AVM underwent microsurgical resection, none experienced intracranial rebleeding during the follow-up period. The last Glasgow outcome scale (GOS)score was 5 in 13 cases,and 4 in 4 cases. One patient with AVM underwent combined stereotactic radiotherapy had intracranial rebleeding during the follow-up period,and their last GOS score was 4. The other remaining 3 patients did not have new neurological deficits or rebleeding during the follow-up period,and theirGOSscorewas5.Conclusions 3D-DSA,headMRI,andCTfusiontechnologyarenovel, the operative method is simple,and the fusion image is accurate. They can effectively develop the individualized treatment regimens for patients with AVM.

Objective To investigate the effects of intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) on the brain in rats. Methods Sixty-four healthy male SD rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly allocated to one of 2 groups (n = 32 each): sham operation group (S) and intestinal I/R group (I/R). Intestinal I/R was produced by occlusion of superior mesenteric artery (SMA) for 90 min followed by reperfusion. Eight animals were sacrificed at each of the following time points: 2, 6, 12 and 24 h of reperfusion (T1-4) in each group. After a median sternotomyblood samples were taken from left ventricle for measurement of plasma TNF-α and IL-6 (by ELISA). Intestine and brain tissue was harvested for microscopic examination and detection of apoptosis ( by TUNEL). The cognitive function was tested using Morris water maze at 24 h. Results No abnormality was found in intestine and brain tissue in group S. Intestinal damage and neurodegeneration were detected in group I/R. Intestinal I/R significantly increased cerebral apoptosis in group I/R compared with group S. Plasma TNF-a and IL-6 concentrations were significantly higher at T1-4 in group I/R than in group S. The escape latency and swimming distance were significantly increased, while the number of crossing the platform was decreased in group I/R compared with group S. There was no significant difference in the swimming speed between the 2 groups. Conclusion Intestinal I/R can induce brain injury and lead to cognitive dysfunction. I/R-induced release of inflammatory mediators and neuronal apoptosis are involved in the underlying mechanism.

The essential medium of B115 composed of 1% tryptone, 0.25% yeast extract and 0.5% sodium chloride was determined by using an orthogonal design. The orthogonal design was also employed in testing the optimum additions. It was composed of 0.1%(NH_(4))_(2)SO_(4),1.4%K_(2)HPO_(4), 0.6% KH_(2)PO_(4) and 0.1% (Na_(3)C_(6)H_(5)O_(7)). The yield of B115 cultured in optimum medium was compared with the one in essential medium. Statistic analysis showed that the growth of B115 was most significantly improved by adding K~(+)、NH~+_(4) and (Na_(3)C_(6)H_(5)O_(7)) to essential medium. The antibacterial effect of Bacillus subtilis strain B115 on pathogenic Aeromonas was studied. The results showed different antibacterial effects of B115 on different aeromonads. There were obvious antibacterial effects on BSK-10 and CL990920, while no effect on the growth of TL970424.
