Objective:To observe the changes of alveolar cells apoptosis and the expression of Fas/FasL protein in pulmonary injury induced by ischemia/reperfusion in rabbbits,and to explore the related mechanism of pulmonary injury.Methods: The left pulmonary arteries of 30 healthy New Zealand rabbits(either sex) were obstructed and reperfused by inflating and discharging gas of 5F Berman sacculus catheter.The rabbits were then randomly divided into 5 groups: sham operation group,ischemia 1 h group,ischemia 2 h group,ischemia 2 h and reperfusion 1 h group,and ischemia 2 h and reperfusion 2 h group.Another 6 healthy rabbits were taken as control.The pulmonary tissues were harvested after experiment and the lung wet/dry ratio was determined.Alveolar cells apoptosis and Fas/FasL protein expression were determined using flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry techniques,respectively.Results: The lung cell apoptosis was obviously increased in ischemia groups compared with that in the control and sham group.The reperfusion after ischemia further increased the cell apoptosis compared with simple ischemia groups,and the apoptosis was positively related with the reperfusion time(P

Objective To evaluate the changes of alveolar cells apoptosis and the expression of related genes in pulmonary injury induced by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) in acute experimental pulmonary embolism of rabbits. Methods The left lung artery of rabbits were obstructed by inflating gas of 5F Berman sacculus catheter, then the gas of sacculus was put out to result in blood reperfusion. Thirty-six New Zealand rabbits of either gender and weighing 2.5 to 3.0 kg were studied, and randomly divided into six groups: control group (control), sham operation group (sham), ischemia 1h group (I 1h), ischemia 2h group (I 2h), ischemia2h and reperfusion 1h group (IR 1h), ischemia 2h and reperfusion 2 h group (IR 2h). Alveolar cells apoptosis and Bax, Bcl-2, Fas/FasL protein expression were studied By using flow-cytometry and immunocytochemistry techniques. Results The lung apoptosis cell number was increased in ischemia groups compared with control and sham group. The reperfusion after ischemia further increased the apoptosis cell numbers compared with simple ischemia, and the longer time reperfusion,the larger number of cell apoptosis. Bax, Bcl-2, Fas and FasL protein expression were significantly higher in ischemia, ischemia/reperfusion group than that in those of control groups (P

Objective:To study curative effect of Biqi Capsule on lumbar muscle strain. Methods:120 patients who meet the full diagnostic criteria were grouped into the treatment group (66 patients) and the control group (54 patients) at random. The treatment group was treated with Biqi Capsule per os,while the control group was treated with western medicine Composite Chlorzozazone tablets per os.The comprehensive curative effects on the two groups were summarized.Results:The total effective rate of the treatment group and the control group were 92.4% and 79.6% respectively;No significant differences in two groups in statistics (P=0.06).The VAS score of the treatment group and the control group were (0.95?1.63) and (1.83?2.39) respectively.The curative effect was found to be better in the treatment group than that in the control group (P

Objective:To investigate the features of volume, distribution, grading and staging of prostate cancer(PCa)examined via whole-mount histopathology in transitional PCa.Methods:A total of 129 PCa patients undergone radical prostatectomy(RP)between July 2017 and March 2020 whose whole-mount prostate specimens were prepared after surgery were retrospectively studied.Pathological data on tumor locations, diameters and classification of the International Society of Urologic Pathology(ISUP), radiological data on regions of interest(ROI)and scores of the Prostate Imaging and Reporting Data System(PI-RADS v2)were recorded.The results of pathological whole-mount sections and prostate imaging were compared, and the characteristics and detection rates of lesions in different prostate regions were analyzed.Results:Of all 129 prostate specimens from RP, a total of 213 PCa lesions were detected through whole-mount histopathology.There were 21(9.9%)lesions involving both the peripheral zone(PZ)and the transition zone(TZ), with an average diameter of(2.82±0.71)cm.Of all lesions, 85(39.9%)involved PZ and 107(50.2%)involved TZ, with an average diameter of(1.36±0.81)cm and of(1.60±0.94)cm, respectively.The percentage of lesions involving TZ was higher than that lesions involving PZ, with larger diameters( P<0.05). Of 64 patients with complete MRI data, 105 PCa lesions were detected histopathologically by using whole mount sections, while 75 PCa lesions were detected by MRI, with a statistical difference( P<0.05). For lesions≥1.0 cm or lesions with an ISUP grade group≥2, the detection rate of MRI was lower in TZ lesions( P<0.05). Conclusions:PCa lesions within TZ account for a large proportion and have a relatively large tumor dimeter.PCa lesions within TZ are more likely to be missed in clinical examinations and on MRI, and clinicians should pay close attention during diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To study the validity of RAND-UCLA (Rand Corporation and University of California at Los Angeles) consensus panel method in developing guidelines of referral indications for low back pain (LBP).Methods Evidence-based clinical guidelines for LBP management at community level and its referral guidelines published since 2001 and other tools were retrieved with varied tools.All clinical guidelines met inclusion criteria were evaluated with clinical studies and evaluation tools (AGREE).An pool of indication items was established based on evidence for developing referral indications for LBP, which were added by RAND-UCLA consensus panel method, and alternative referral indications were selected and clinical guidelines for LBP referral were established.Results A total of 15 copies of clinical guidelines from nine countries or regions were included in it after critical appraisal.Four copies of referral guidelines from two countries were included.Referral indications for LBP were derived directly from the RAND-UCLA consensus panel process, consisting of 44 referral indications for three groups (immediate, urgent and routine referral).Conclusions The RAND-UCLA consensus panel method is a more useful and practical tool in developing clinical guidelines, referral guidelines, which is worthwhile being recommended and spread.

Objective To explore the value of diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) histogram analysis for differential diagnosis of prostate cancer and noncancerous foci and the correlation between histogram parameters and Gleason score. Methods Twenty?one patients were retrospectively enrolled in Beijing Hospital from May 2017 to May 2018. All subjects underwent Philips 3.0 T MR scanning. The pathologies were confirmed by in?bore MR?guided biopsy. Finally, 31 lesions were collected (two lesions each from 10 patients), including 15 prostate cancer and 16 noncancerous foci (benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostatitis). ROI was drawn manually by two experienced radiologists. All the lesions were measured mean apparent diffusion coefficient (Dapp), mean apparent kurtosis coefficient (Kapp) and their histogram parameters, the averages of two measurements were used to be calculated. The values of these parameters in cancer and noncancerous foci were compared using independent?samples t test. The Spearman test was used to evaluate the correlation of these parameters and Gleason scores of prostate cancer. Results Mean Dapp, 10th Dapp, 25th Dapp, 50th Dapp, 75th Dapp, 90th Dapp, minimum Dapp, maximum Dapp, mean Kapp, 50th Kapp, 75th Kapp, 90th Kapp, maximum Kapp between prostate cancer and noncancerous foci were statistically significant (P<0.05). 90th Kapp (r=0.630, P<0.05) and maximum Kapp (r=0.565, P<0.05) increased with the Gleason scores increasing. Conclusion Histogram analysis of DKI model is valuable for diagnosing and assessing aggressiveness of prostate cancer.

Objective:To evaluate the value of integrated PET/MR in assessing myocardial viability in ischemic heart disease.Methods:A total of 39 patients (28 males, 11 females; age (60.1±12.0) years) diagnosed with ischemic heart disease in Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University were retrospectively enrolled from September 2020 to December 2021. All patients underwent cardiac 13N-NH 3·H 2O and 18F-FDG PET/MR examinations. Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) sequence was included in MRI scan. PET and MRI images were analyzed and myocardial viability of each myocardial segment was evaluated according to the American Heart Association (AHA) 17 segment method. The extent of left ventricular infarcted myocardium was measured based on PET and MRI images. Weighted Kappa test was used to evaluate the agreement of PET and MRI in assessing myocardial viability. The extent of infarcted myocardium measured by PET and MRI was compared by paired- t test, and Pearson correlation analysis was used to assess the correlation between them. Results:There was a moderate agreement between PET and MRI in assessing myocardial viability ( Kappa=0.532, P<0.001), with the agreement rate of 69.83%(463/663). There was no significant difference but strong correlation between the extents of infarcted myocardium measured by PET and MRI ((23.89±14.23)% vs (23.55±11.90)%; t=-0.24, P=0.809; r=0.79, P<0.001). In segments with normal perfusion and metabolism on PET, 22.52% (100/444) showed abnormal enhancement on MRI. On the other hand, 39.89% (73/183) of the segments classified as non-viable on MRI showed normal or viable on PET. Conclusion:Integrated PET/MR is able to take full advantage of the complementary nature of PET and MRI, achieving the comprehensive and accurate evaluation of myocardial viability.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the method for rapid judgement of blending endpoint of Jingqi shuangshen capsules and content determination of astragaloside Ⅳ. METHODS:AOTF-NIR combined with principal component analysis and Moving Block Standard Deviation method was used to identify the blending endpoint. First derivative combined with savitzky-golay filter method were used to spectrum pretreatment. The partial least square method was used to establish quantitative analysis model of the content of astragaloside Ⅳin mixed endpoint sample.

RESULTS:Methodology validation of content determination of astragaloside Ⅳ in mixed material sample and mixed endpoint sample was in line with the requirements. NIR monitoring results showed that the product reached the blending endpoint after 30 min. The results of NIR monitoring were generally consistent with the results of HPLC-ELSD. The principal component dimension of the quantitative model was 9;determination coefficients was 0.954 9;Root Mean Square of Calibration of the model was 0.039 2;Root Mean Square Error of Prediction of the model was 0.042 6. Predicted average value of astragaloside Ⅳ by NIR was 11.74 mg/g,and measured average value of astragaloside Ⅳ by HPLC-ELSD was 11.38 mg/g;average deviation was 3.16%. CONCLUSIONS:AOTF-NIR can rapidly judge the blending endpoint sample of Jingqi shuangshen capsules,rapidly determine the content of astragalosideⅣin mixed endpoint material,improve the quality control level of blending process and shorten blending cycle.

Objective:To identify risk factors for cement leakage in percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) for Kümmell disease.Methods:A total of 309 patients (351 levels) with Kümmell disease who underwent PVP between November 2015 and June 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Age, gender, time of symptom onset, staging of Kümmell disease, fracture site(thoracic, lumbar), cortical disruption, type of fracture (wedge, biconcave, crush), fracture severity (mild, moderate, severe), intrusion of posterior wall, basivertebral foramen, puncture approach (unilateral, bilateral), cement distribution pattern (lumped, spongy), cement volume, cement leakage (yes, no) and cement leakage type were recorded. Cement leakage was classified into three types: through the basivertebral vein, through the cortical defect, and through the segmental vein. The data was analyzed by univariate and multivariate analysis to determine related factors of cement leakage in general and each type.Results:The rate of overall leakage was 65.8% (231/351). The leakage rate of basivertebral vein type, cortical defect type, and segmental vein type was 21.4% (75/351), 37.6% (132/351) and 22.8% (80/351), respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that three significant factors related to leakage in general were cortical disruption, basivertebral foramen and cement distribution pattern. Significant factors related to basivertebral vein type leakage were basivertebral foramen and cement distribution pattern. Significant factors related to cortical defect type leakage were cortical disruption and cement distribution pattern. Significant factors related to segmental vein type leakage were basivertebral foramen, cement distribution pattern, cement volume and fracture site.Conclusion:Risk factors of cement leakage in PVP for Kümmell disease include cortical disruption, basivertebral foramen and cement distribution pattern.
