Objective To evaluate the clinical value of 64-slice spiral computed tomography(CT) in detecting coronary artery disease. Methods Twenty-three patients with suspected coronary artery stenosis were analyzed by 64-slice spiral computed tomography coronary angiography and catheter coronary angiography. Results Two hundred and ninety -one segments of the two hundred ninety-nine coronary artery segments in twenty-three patients could be visualized by 64-slice spiral CT,eight segments couldn't be visualized because of calcification and exercising shadow. According to gold standard of selective coronary arteriongraphy,the sensibility,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value to diagnose coronary artery stenosis by 64-slice spiral CT were 88.7%,98.2%,94.0% and 96.4%.Conclusion The coronary artery stenosis diagnosis by 64 -slice spiral CT is a potential detecting method and good clinical value but could not replace selective coronary arteriongraphy.

0.05).Conclusions:Combined anchorage can provide maximum anchorage compared with traditional face bow and was accepted easily by patients.

Mirror therapy has been widely used in practice as an effective rehabilitaiton method. Mirror integrated therapy combined mirror therapy with some other technologies, such as virtual reality, functional electrical stimulation, augmented reality, etc., to enhance the task orientation, and improve the efficiency of treatment.

Objective The purpose of this article is to analyze the domestic situation of co-authorship in the field of international classification of diseases using Social Network Analysis.Methods Using UCINET to do this research from the following five perspectives,namely density,degree centrality,betweenness centrality,closeness and subgroup analysis.Results The density of co-authoring network is 0.0021.The number of nodes which made up the main component accounts for 3.46％ of the total nodes.Lin Jie-zhong possesses the highest value of degree centrality,and Guo Yun-qing's value of betweenness centrality and closeness is the highest.Forty-four 2-plexes are found in all authors.Conclusions Currently,the co-authorship is not close,but to a certain extent,the authors liked Lin Jie-zhong,Liang Yao,Li Jian-wei,Fan Wei,Guo Yun-qing,Liu Ai-min and so on constitute the core members or leaders.From the overall point of view,the authors in this field have not yet formed a subgroup phenomenon obviously.The structure of this co-authoring network is loose and isolated.

Objective Radiosensitivity is highly correlated with DNA doub le stra nd breaks(DSBs). The repair of human DSB is possible mainly through nonhomologou s DNA end joining(NHEJ)pathway. This study was designed to determine the relat ionship between expression of 70Ku/ 80Ku prot ein (a modulating subunit of DNA-PK, which is an important component in NHEJ pathway) and radiosensitivity of nasoph aryngeal carcinoma cell lines. Methods Radiosensitivity parameters of the nasoph aryngeal carcinoma cell lines were obtained by the colony forming assay and radi ation dose-survival curve was done by linear quadratic model. Western blot was p erformed to determine the expression of 70Ku and 80 Ku in total extract of CNE1 a nd CNE2 at baseline level、different time after 4?Gy irradiation、12 h after di ff erent doses of irradiation. To perform a semi-quantitated assay of protein expr e ssion, the optic density (OD) value of each band was estimated by automatic imag e analysis system. Results Surviving fraction of CNE1 was higher than those of CNE2 at each dose point. Mean inactivation dose was higher in the CNE1(2.35)t han that in the CNE2(1.11), but the quantity of 70Ku/ 80Ku in either cell line was similar at both baseline and postirradiation levels. Conclusions CNE2 is mo re radiaosensitive than CNE1; as there was no marked correlation observed betwee n the quantity of Ku protein and radiosensitivity of the nasopharyngeal carcinom a cell lines. X-irradiation cannot result in any change in total quantity of Ku protein.

Pneumoconiosis is a serious occupational disease in China. Early imaging examination is one of the important measures for the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of pneumoconiosis. Digital radiography (DR) and computed tomography (CT) play an important role in the screening and diagnosis of pneumoconiosis, as well as the recent rise of artificial intelligence (AI) technology. This paper reviews the latest progress in technical parameter debugging and quality control of DR, optimization of AI computer-aided system and CT-aided diagnosis of pneumoconiosis, summarizes the advantages and problems in the application of the three technologies, providing research directions for imaging diagnosis of pneumoconiosis.

Objective:To investigate the effects of rosuvastatin and lfuvastatin on patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) combing impaired glucose tolerance (IGT).
Methods: A total of 215 consecutive ACS patients combing IGT treated in our hospital from 2009-05 to 2011-05 were studied. The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups, Rosuvastatin group, the patients received rosuvastatin10mg/day, n=108 and Fluvastatin group, the patients received fluvastatin 40mg/day, n=107. The total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels before and at 6, 12, 24 months after medication, fasting blood glucose (FBG), 2-hour postprandial glucose (2hPBG) and the number of new-onset of diabetes patients were compared between 2 groups.
Results: After treatment, the TC, LDL-C levels were decreased (6, 12, 24 months) and the HDL-C level (12, 24 months), 2hPBG (24 months) were increased in both groups. Compared with Fluvastatin group, Rosuvastatin group had decreased TC and LDL-C (6, 12, 24 months), and increased LDL-C (24 months). With 6, 12, 24 months treatment, the blood lipids reached the standard were more in Rosuvastatin group than those in Fluvastatin group as 35.3%vs 26.1%, 36.4% vs 22.0%, 43.1% vs 31.8% respectively, all P<0.05. With 12 and 24 months treatment, the new-onset diabetes patients in Rosuvastatin group were 11 and 18, in Fluvastatin group were 12 and 17. With 12, 24 months treatment, FBG, 2hPBG levels and the number of new-onset diabetes patients were similar between 2 groups, P>0.05.
Conclusion: Compared with lfuvastatin, the conventional dose of rosuvastatin could better reduce the blood lipids level in ACS patients combing IGT, the effects for preventing ACS patients from IGT to diabetes were similar for both drugs.

AIM To investigate the anti-neuroinflammation effects of 4-hydroxybenzyl aldehyde (4-HBAL) from Gastrodia elata Blume on acute cerebral ischemic injury in rats and its nechanism of action.METHODS The rat model of acute cerebral ischemic injury was induced by injecting arachidonic acid via intracarotid artery.Brain tissue samples were taken from the animals 3 h after the model of acute cerebral ischemic injury.Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) were detected in brain tissue to evaluate the effects of 4-HBAL in vivo.Lipopolysaccharid (LPS)-induced activation of BV-2 microglia cells model was used to explore the anti-neuroinflammation mechanism of 4-HBAL.RESULTS The experimental results showed that 4-HBAL had a significant protective effect on acute cerebral ischemic injury.It could significandy decrease the contents of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β),and obviously inhibit the production of nitric oxide (NO),prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and TNF-α in LPS-stimulated BV-2 cell,and increase the production of interleukin-10 (IL-10) and transforming growth factors-β (TGF-β) in BV-2 cell.CONCLUSION The mechanism of 4-HBAL may be related to the suppression of the excessive activation of microglia after cerebral ischemia and the promotion of the transformation of microglia into anti-inflammatory phenotype.
