Objective To discuss the significance of the application of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR)combined with prostate specific antigen (PSA)in early diagnosis of prostate carcinoma.Methods 120 cases with surgery treatment of prostate carcinoma were selected as study group,and 120 healthy people were selected as control groups.The NLR and PSA were tested to diagnose the prostate carcinoma.The critical value of NLR in diagnosing prostate carcinoma was evaluated by ROC curves,and the advantages of combination of NLR and PSA were judged. Results By using ROC curves to evaluate the NLR in diagnosis,the critical value was 2.75.The susceptibility, specificity,Youden index,correct index were 0.79,0.85,0.65,0.72.The susceptibility,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,correct index of NLR combined with PSA in diagnosing the prostate carcinoma were 0.85,0.83,5.00,0.18,0.68.Conclusion The application of NLR has higher susceptibility and specificity to diagnose prostate carcinoma.NLR combined with PSA can improve the susceptibility and specificity of early diagnosis of prostate carcinoma.

Objective To analyze the clinical value of 1.5T MRI DWI and SWI sequence in the diagnosis of cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage.Methods A total of 28 patients with cerebral infarction were selected as control group,and 28 patients with cerebral hemorrhage were selected as observation group.The PHILPS 1.5T magnetic resonance imaging system was applied.The patients were examined by T1WI and T2WI sequence scanning,and DWI and SWI sequence images were obtained.In the two groups,lesions around the center and different characteristics of SWI and DWI were observed and compared,and the measurement of peripheral lesions were measured for calculating the central area of the PV and ADC.Results There was no significant difference between T1WI and T2WI in patients with cerebral hemorrhage and cerebral infarction,but there was significant difference between DWI sequence and DWI sequence.MRI routine examination showed that there were no significant differences in detection rates of T1WI sequence and T2WI sequence between two groups,but the detection rate of DWI sequence in the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,while detection rate of DWI sequence was significantly higher than the control group(P<0.05).The central area of ADC in the observation group was significantly better than that in the control group,and the PV value of the hematoma area was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Collections of DWI and SWI images of cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage by magnetic resonance prove that there are significant differences between characteristics of two images.

Objective To investigate the correlation between CT parameters of erector spinae muscle(ESM)and pulmonary function in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD),and to analyze its predictive value for the prognosis of patients.Methods A total of 120 COPD patients were included as the case group(including 60 cases in stable stage and 60 cases in acute exacerbation stage),and 60 smokers were selected as the control group.The differences of ESM CT parameters and pulmonary function parameters in each group were compared.According to the prognosis of COPD,patients were divided into good prognosis group(n=106)and poor prognosis group(n=14),and the predictive efficacy of ESM CT parameters on the prognosis of COPD patients was analyzed.Results The pulmonary function parameters,ESM cross sectional area(CSA)(ESMCSA)and ESM local volume in the case group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).ESMCSA and ESM local volume were positively correlated with inspiratory capacity(IC),vital capacity(VC),forced vital capacity(FVC)and forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV1)(P<0.001).The average muscle density of ESM was positively correlated with IC,VC and FVC(P<0.05),but not with FEV1.The area under the curve(AUC)of ESMCSA and ESM local volume in predicting poor prognosis of COPD patients was 0.769[95%confidence interval(CI)0.661-0.876]and 0.827(95%CI 0.734-0.919),respectively.Conclusion There is a certain correlation between the CT parameters of ESM and the pulmonary function parameters of COPD patients,among which the ESMCSA and the ESM local volume have high predictive efficacy for the prognosis of COPD patients.

CaMKII is essential for long-term potentiation (LTP), a process in which synaptic strength is increased following the acquisition of information. Among the four CaMKII isoforms, γCaMKII is the one that mediates the LTP of excitatory synapses onto inhibitory interneurons (LTPE→I). However, the molecular mechanism underlying how γCaMKII mediates LTPE→I remains unclear. Here, we show that γCaMKII is highly enriched in cultured hippocampal inhibitory interneurons and opts to be activated by higher stimulating frequencies in the 10-30 Hz range. Following stimulation, γCaMKII is translocated to the synapse and becomes co-localized with the postsynaptic protein PSD-95. Knocking down γCaMKII prevents the chemical LTP-induced phosphorylation and trafficking of AMPA receptors (AMPARs) in putative inhibitory interneurons, which are restored by overexpression of γCaMKII but not its kinase-dead form. Taken together, these data suggest that γCaMKII decodes NMDAR-mediated signaling and in turn regulates AMPARs for expressing LTP in inhibitory interneurons.
