Objective To find a method to improve the range accuracy of moving target such as peripheral lung tumors, since a single CT snapshot may not be accurate during the treatment process.Methods A simple harmonic motion phantom, embedded with a cube and a circular ball, was used to simulate the tumor motion. Individualized moving targets were scanned 24 times with different amplitudes and frequencies. Then the images were fused from every 1, 2 or 3 sets of CT scans. The GTV volume variation of circular target and the length variation of the cube target along the z axis were contoured and analyzed. Results As motion amplitude increased, the maximum of both circular target volume and cube target length was increased, while the minimum of the factors was decreased. Motion frequency affected the target volume less than amplitude. For a cube target with the length of 3.3 cm at stationary phase, when motion frequencies was 20 and motion amplitude was 2 cm, the maximal length was 2. 4 times of the minimal length (5. 1 cm vs. 2. 1 cm). When it came to the cube target groups fused from every 1,2 and 3 sets of CT scans, the average length and standard deviation were (3.77 ± 1.20) cm, (4.18 ±0. 91)cm and (4.52 ±0. 59) cm, respectively. With the increase of fused scan number, targets became bigger, the standard deviation decreased, and the change of center positions was decreased. Conclusions The motion amplitude, frequency and the number of CT scans are the main factors affecting target definition, though, the optimized scanning phase is not certained. When 4DCT and respiration gating technique are not available,the efficient and practical method to solve this problem is to scan the target three or more times and fuse them in planning system, which will generate a larger, more reproducible GTV volume for moving targets.

Objective To investigate the changes of cardiac aldosterone and mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) in Sprague-dawley (SD) rats with chronic heart failure (CHF) induced by isoproterenol (ISO). Methods The SD rats were randomly divided into CHF group (n=9) and normal control(NC) group (n=10). The experimental CHF group was induced by subcutaneous injection of ISO, and the NC group received same dose injection of sodium chloride. The heart function was evaluated with both echocardiography and hemodynamics. The contents of aldosterone in both plasma and heart were assessed by radioimmunoassay. The expression of MR was measured by Western blot and immunohistochemistry staining. Results Compared with NC group, the heart function was decreased in CHF group, the left ventricular ejection fraction was (38.8%±4.0%) in CHF and(79. 4%±4.6%), in NC group. The maximal rate of increase of ventricular pressure (+dp/dtmax) was (7164.4±502.6) mm Hg(1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa)/s in CHF and (10199.5±462.9) mm Hg/s in NC group (both P<0. 01 ). The contents of aldosterone both in plasma and heart were higher in CHF group than in NC group [(0.63±0.06)μg/L vs. (0.3±0.07) μg/L, (0.41±0.05) μg/kgvs. (0.08±0.01)μg/kg, both P<0. 01]. The MR expression was increased in CHF group versus in NC group (P<0.01). Conclusions The heart function is decreased in rats with CHF induced by ISO, which is similar to dilated cardiomyopathy. The higher levels of aldosterone both in circulation and in heart as and well as MR expression upregulation in heart may play important roles in the pathogenesis of CHF induced by ISO.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathologic changes of the lung epithelial tumor with epithelioid granuloma. Methods E-leven cases of lung malignant tumor with epithelial epithelioid granuloma reaction were studied according to the histological changes of lung epithelial tumor, immunophenotype, acid-fast staining, and tuberculosis PCR test results combined with follow-up data. Results The mean age was 62. 3 years, and male to female ratio was 10∶ 1. The main clinical manifestations displayed a cough, chest pain, fever and hemoptysis or bloody sputum. Nine cases were malignant tumors, tuberculosis or inflammatory lesions was 1 case each in pre-vious surgery. The tumor with epithelioid granuloma formation of the 11 cases displayed in the same site ( mixed) . The histopathologic changes of the lesions showed a epithelioid or typical tuberculous granulomas formation, including 4 cases of adenocarcinoma, 5 cases of squamous cell carcinoma and 2 cases of neuroendocrine tumors. The acid-fast bacilli staining was positive in 3 cases;6 cases were positive for PCR detection of mycobacterium tuberculosis. 5 patients died within 2 years due to various causes. Conclusions The lung epithelial tumors with epithelioid granuloma is more commonly found in the middle-aged, The signs and symptoms of the patients are similar to primary epithelial malignant tumors of the lung . The biological behavior was progressive with poor prognosis. The diagnosis of the lesions depends on pathological examination. It is very important to pay more attention to the pathological examination, especially in lung puncture samples, and the differential diagnosis for a definate diagnosis and treatment.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical features of Chinese dysgraphia and then probe into its mechanisms in a patient with semantic dementia(SD).MethodsThe patient with SD finished the writing part of the Aphasia Battery of Chinese (Aphasia Battery of Chinese,ABC) and the Chinese agraphia battery (Chinese agraphia battery,CAB ) in addition to a series of other neuropsychological tests.Results( 1 ) On the Wechsler Adult intelligence scale,the patient performed poorly on information and vocabulary with scores of 6/29 and 8/80,respectively.He spoke out only 11 names totally on the category fluency test within 1 minute,while 25 names or more than were normal.Semantic features test showed he made 37 right answers of 60 questions,with scores of 8/20 on category,7/20 on function and 8/20 on nature features.(2)The writing disorder exhibited Chinese aphasia agraphia with obvious difficulty in forming characters,wrong characters of the same pronunciation or the same form or unrelated errors,and grammatical impairments.Its damage from serious to light occurred in picture writing( 6/40),writing sentences to convey meaning(1/10),dictation(11/40) and automatic writing(35/40).The transcription was relatively preserved (40/40 ). (3)He scored 20 and 19 points on MMSE and MoCA.Executive function was damaged significantly,while recent memory was preserved relatively.ConclusionThe patient with SD shows an impoverished store of general knowledge and poor comprehension of single-word.The nature of SD's dysgraphia presents Chinese aphasia agraphia,undoubtedly due to progressive deterioration in semantic memory.More importantly,its error types and distribution show apparent discrepancy from that of alphabetic script.Presumably because Chinese writing system is logographic in nature and the pathway of comprehension concerning syllable-orthography-morphemes mapping,while alphabetic writing system follows a principle of mapping graphemes on-to phonemes and letters themselves dont stand for any meaning.
