Objective:To investigate the clinical manifestations and imaging features of spastic paraplegia caused by spinal cord Wallerian degeneration after pontine infarction, and to analyze its occurrence process and mechanism.Methods:The clinical manifestations and imaging features of two patients with spastic paraplegia caused by spinal cord Wallerian degeneration after pontine infarction were reported for the first time in China. Combined with anatomy and review of the literature, the mechanism, imaging manifestations and clinical features of Wallerian degeneration of lateral funiculus of spinal cord after pontine infarction were analyzed systematically.Results:Case 1 was a 65 years old female, and case 2 was a 58 years old male, who were treated in Qilu Hospital of Shandong University on December 7, 2018 and June 23, 2019 respectively. All the two patients presented with strength weakness of both limbs, hypertonia, symmetric hyperreflexia, and bilateral extensor plantar responses, which suggested spastic paraplegia secondary to upper motor neuron involvement. Spastic paraplegia appeared eight months after pontine infarction in case 1 and appeared six months after pontine infarction in case 2. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed continuous iso-T 1 and high-T 2 signals of bilateral pyramidal tracts below the pontine foci. Case 1 showed lesions of lateral cord of medulla oblongata, cervical spinal cord and thoracic spinal cord, and case 2 showed lesions of lateral cord of medulla oblongata and cervical spinal cord. At the same time, motor neuron disease and metabolic disease were excluded by electromyography and laboratory examination, inflammatory demyelinating disease was excluded by cerebrospinal fluid examination in one case. The syndromes, in combination with a continuous strip of abnormal signal revealed by magnetic resonance imaging which was consistent with the pyramidal tract and connected with the primary lesion suggested wallerian degeneration of spinal cord secondary to pontine infarction. The clinical symptoms of two cases were gradually aggravated in follow-up. Conclusions:Spinal cord Wallerian degeneration is a sequel after pontine infarction, which is related to the prognosis of the disease. A full understanding of its clinical manifestations and imaging features can avoid clinical misdiagnosis as other diseases.

Objective To explore the clinical value of prenatal ultrasound on detecting fetal spleen.Methods 1850 normal cases and 34 cases of splenic abnormalities,including fetal anemia(31 cases) and intrauterine infection(3 cases),were included.All fetuses underwent standard ultrasound fetal biometry,routine fetal screening and splenic length and thickness measurement.The ultrasonic imaging and the size of fetal spleen in the two group of fetuses were compared and relevant statistical analysis was performed.Results ①In 1850 cases,the fetal spleen visual rate under prenatal ultrasound was 98.1%.②Linear regression analysis showed that there was a linear relationship between the thickness,spleen diameter and gestational age(GA) with simplified equation as follows:splenic length (mm)=GA,splenic thinckness (mm) =GA×0.5-4.③ In the 34 abnormal cases,the size of fetal spleen were significantly larger than those in normal fetuses.Conclusions It is important to detect fetal spleen by prenatal ultrasound which can provide valuable information for the diagnosis of fetal anemia and intrauterine infection.

Objective To study the activities of the alcoholic extract from Fructus Polygoni Orientalis (EFPO) against antioxidation. Methods The peroxidation in homogenate of rat heart, liver and kidney was induced by ?OH generation system Fe2++ascorbic acid. Malondialdehyde (MDA) was determined by TBA colorimetric method. Superoxide (O-2) from zymosan-stimulated neutrophils of rat was measured by NBT reduction method. H2O2-caused hemolysis of erythrocytes was measured by spectrometry. Results MDA in homogenate of heart, liver and kidney of rat that induced by ?OH generation system Fe2++ascorbic acid was inhibited by 6.3, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200 ?g/L EFPO; IC50 of EFPO to MDA in heart, liver and kidney was 31.8, 32.5 and 40.2 ?g/L respectively and its dose-effect relation was of negative relativity and the relative coefficient was -0.886, -0.874 and -0.918 (all P

Objective: To study the dietary habits and serum leptin levels of obese children and its possible association to lipids and glucose metabolism, serum lipids and C peptide (CP) in children with different body weight. Methods: 52 obese children were inquired about their favorite foods and food intake. 145 healthy children (85 boys, 60 girls), aged 6-13, with a wide range of body mass index (BMI) 14 to 30 kg/m 2, were measured for fasting serum leptin, CP, glucose, lipids (TG, TC, LDL C,HDL C), height and weight. The children were classified into three groups by BMI, i.e. normal weight group (A group), overweight and slight obese group (B group). moderate and severe obese group (C group). Results: 65% of obese children liked meat best. 38.46% of them ate most in supper. The serum leptin, CP, TG in obese children were higher than that in normal children. Leptin concentration of girls were higher than that in boys in A and B groups (P

Aim ToconstructHEK293cellsstablyex-pressing corticotropin releasing factor receptor 1 ( CRFR1 ) , and evaluate its function by the cAMP as-say.Methods CulturedHEK293cellsweretransfect-ed with CRFR1-expressing vector by Lipofectamine 2000 and were selected by using G418 . CRFR1 ex-pression was detected by Western blot, RT-PCR and immunofluorescence.Results Westernblot,RT-PCR and immunofluorescence data revealed that the HEK293 cells expressed CRFR1 protein stably. The dose-responsive relationship experiment revealed that CRF induced a CRFR1-mediated cAMP production in HEK293 cells with EC50 =(5. 64 ± 0. 05) × 10 -10 mol ·L-1.Conclusion HEK293celllinesstablyex-pressing CRFR1 were constructed successfully, which would provide a cellular model to facilitate the research on the biological function of CRFR1 and CRFR1-targe-ted drug screening.

Objective To grasp the epidemic features of Kaschin-Beck disease in different ecotypic areas in Gansu Province,in order to provide ecological basis for Kashin-Beck disease control.Methods Totally 37 counties with Kashin-Beck disease were divided into four ecological areas,villages with historical serious condition in township and townships with historical serious condition in county were investigated.Clinical examination and Xray of right hand of all 7-12-year-old children in the villages were carried out,while investigation of prevention and control measures was performed.Results Among 27 966 children from four ecological areas,the clinical detection rate was 0.05% (14/27 966) and the X-ray positive rate was 1.26% (353/27 966),metaphyseal rate was 1.25% (350/27 966),bone-side positive rate was 0.01% (3/27 966) and no case of epiphyseal and carpal were discovered.The clinical detection rate in children in the four ecological areas was not statistically significant (x2() =7.757,P >0.05),the Loess Plateau-gully region of Longdong [0.09% (10/11 604)] > the Anyon area of Qinling of Longnan [0.04% (3/7 969)] > Alpine grassland meadow area of Gannan [0.02% (1/4 021)] > the Loess Plateau-hills region of Longzhong [0 (0/4 372)].The detected rate of X-ray in four ecological areas was statistically significant (x2 =18.133,P < 0.05),the Anyon area of Qinling of Longnan [1.49% (119/7 969)] > the Loess Plateau-gully region of Longdong [1.41% (164/11 604)] > the Loess Plateau-hills region of Longzhong [0.89% (39/4 372)] > Alpine grassland meadow area of Gannan [0.77% (31/4 021)].Comprehensive prevention and control measures on Kaschin-Beck disease were different in different ecotypic areas.Relocation,long-distance education and selenium supplement measures had not been implemented in the four ecological areas.Conclusion The epidemic situation of Kaschin-Beck disease is different in different ecotypic areas in Gansu Province,which maybe related to ecological environment,but is under a state of control.
