Chinese Journal of Radiology 2012;46(8):701-704
Objective To investigate the imaging findings of combined hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma(cHCC-CC) with dynamic MRI and spiral CT.Methods Twenty-three patients of cHCC-CC were evaluated.All patients had surgery and diagnoses were confirmed by histopathology.Eighteen patients had pre- and post-contrast scans with spiral CT.Five patients had MR with dynamic multi-phase contrast scanning.Imaging findings in all patients were retrospectively reviewed.Results CT of eighteen patients showed low-density masses with ill-defined margin (n =15 ),lymphadenopathy( n =5 ),invasion of blood vessels ( n =7 ),satellite lesions ( n =5 ),enhancing pseudocapsule ( n =9 ),and dilatation of intrahepatic ducts (n =1 ).MRI of five patients showed lesions with low signal on T1 WI and high signal on T2WI,lymphadenopathy(n =1 ),invasion of blood vessels (n =1 ),enhancing pseudocapsule (n =4).Dynamic CT or MRI enhanced scanning showed areas of heterogeneous enhancement in the interior or periphery of the tumor on the arterial phase,areas of inhomogeneous high signal ( corresponding regions of low signal on the arterial phase) on the portal venous phase,areas of mixed signal intensity due to retention of contrast agents on the delayed phase.Conclusions Combined hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinom demonstrate imaging features on conventional and dynamic MRI and spiral CT,which can be helpful to improve the diagnostic accuracy of this disease.
2.THE ANALGESIC EFFECT OF NEUROTOXIN FROM COBRA ( NAJA NAJA ) VENOM
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 1987;0(02):-
Two models, mouse hot plate and vocalization indused by electrical stimulation of rat's tail were used to demonstrate the antinocice-ptive action of the neurotoxin ( NT ) from cobra venom.The paw-lick latencies of mice of both NT groups in different dose (0.023 mg/kg, 0.03 mg/kg, im ) were significantly prolonged than that of the control group. In the rats, the vocalization threshold of NT group was significantly higher than that of the control group too. This action of NT showed in these models was in good dose-resp-onse relationship. The onset of antinociceptive action of NT was 2 h and reached highe level 3h after intramuscular injection. This effect could be maintained for more than 24 h 3 groups of mice were continuously given normal saline, NT and morphine respectively for 9 days, and no tolerance showed in NT group of mice, but the acute tolerance to morphine occured in morphine group of mice. These result suggested that the analgesic mechanism of NT may be quite different from that fo morphine.
3.Simultaneous Assaying of Quercitrin and Isoquercetin in Hypericum Japonicum Thunb.Injection by HPLC
China Pharmacy 2001;0(10):-
OBJECTIVE:To establish a HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of quercitrin and isoquercetin in hypericum japonicum thunb.injection.METHODS:Merck Lichrospher RP 18 was used as chromatographic column and the mo-bile phase consisted of acetonitrile-(pH=3.0)buffer phosphate(18∶82)with flow rate at1ml/min,column temperature at25℃and detection wavelength at350nm.RESULTS:The linear range for quercitrin and isoquercetin were0.278?g~4.440?g(r=0.9991)and0.315?g~2.520?g(r=0.9991),respectively.The average recovery were98.60%(RSD=2.23%)and97.79%(RSD=1.74%),respectively.CONCLUSION:This method is accurate,reliable and applicable,and suitable for the quality control of hypericum japonicum thunb.injection.

Objective To assess the prevalence and related factors of postpartum depression in mothers of preterm infants in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).Methods A total of 83 mothers who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were investigated by using Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) and the comprehensive questionnaire for mothers of preterm infants in NICU,and the analysis was performed on SPSS 13.0 using the Spearman correlation analysis and Logistic regression analysis.Results Among the 83 mothers,38 got the EPDS score of 10 and above,which accounted for 45.78% (38/83).The disease severity (OR =3.318,P < 0.01),the worry about disease prognosis (OR =4.348,P <0.01),the worry about mental development of the newborn (OR =5.420,P < 0.01) were the risk factors for postpartum depression in mothers of preterm infants in NICU.Conclusions It's different from the correlation to postpartum depression in mothers of full-term newborns,the correlation to postpartum depression in mothers of preterm infants in NICU are closely related to premature and admission in NICU.The mothers of preterm infants in NICU are the high-risk population for postpartum depression.Routine screening mechanism for mothers of preterm infants should be established for early detection and treatment of postpartum depression,and to promote maternal and infant health.
