Objective To track superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-labeled pancreatic islet cells in rats using 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and to detect the survival and rejection of grafts after transplantation. Methods Twenty male Wistar rats and 5 male Lewis rats were included in the study. SPIO-labeled pancreatic islet cells were tracked using a GE 3.0T Signa Excite MRI scanner with an animal coil. The images of SPIO-labeled islet cells in rats after transplantation were compared with those of the unlabeled ones. FSE T2WI sequence and GRE T2*WI sequence were used for the detection. The sensitivity of images for detection of grafts was also compared. SPIO-labeled pancreatic islet cells isolated from Wistar and Lewis rats were transplanted into the liver of Wistar rats. Afterwards, the survival and rejection of islet cells were observed sequentially in these two growps. The rats in the syngeneic group were sacrificed 3 months post-transplantation, while the rats in the allogeneic group were sacrificed 3 weeks post-transplantation. MRI of the grafts were correlated with the pathological results. Results SPIO-labeled pancreatic islet cells were seen on MRI as distinct homogenous, hypointense spots in the liver. GRE T2*WI were more sensitive to the detection of SPIO-labeled islet cells than FSE T2WI. The relative count of hypointense spots in the syngeneic group were (90.03±9.52)%, (92.87±18.21)% and (86.25±24.81)%, respectively at 1 week, 2 weeks and 3 weeks after transplantation, while the relative count in the allogeneic group were (41.40±15.41)%, (33.41±14.01)% and (23.58±16.78)%, respectively. The difference between these counts was statistically significant (P<0.01). Iron particles were detected only in the SPIO-labeled cells. Three months post-transplantation, the grafts were found well-preserved in the liver of the rats of the syngeneic group, while only a few grafts were found in that of the allogeneic group. Conclusions MRI can be used to track SPIO-labeled islet cells in vivo, and has significant value in detecting the survival and rejection of grafts after transplantation in rats.

Objective To investigate the effect of different reference transducer positions measurement on intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) in ICU patients. Methods 31 cases of patients in ICU in need of measuring IAP were studied from January 2015 to July 2015 in this study. In each patient, transvesical and the direct methods were both used to measure IAP. Three sets of IAP measurements were obtained in the supine position, using the different reference levels and kept as IAPpubis, IAPmidax, IAPphlebostatic. The results were compared using Spearman rank correlation,paired t test and Bland–Altman statistics. Results When symphysis pubis was uesd, the result of direct method was (9.82±4.01) mmHg, the result of indirect method was (8.77 ± 4.48)mmHg (P<0.05), the correction between two methods was 0.967, P<0.05. When midaxillary level was uesd to measure, the result of direct method was (11.74 ± 4.71) mmHg, the result of indirect method was (11.65 ± 4.63)mmHg, the correction between two methods was 0.972, P=0.10. When phlebostatic was uesd, the result of direct method was (10.98 ± 4.65) mmHg, the result of indirect method was (10.38 ± 4.75)mmHg, the correction between two methods was 0.970, P<0.05. The calculated bias between IAPmidax and IAPpubis was 2.9 mmHg, 95%agreement of limits was (-0.8-6.5) mmHg, and the maximum difference value was 11 mmHg. The calculated bias between IAPmidax and IAPphlebostatic was1.3 mmHg, 95%agreement of limits was-1.4-4.0 mmHg, and the maximum difference value was 4.2 mmHg. Conclusion In supine position, the value obtained via the bladder can reflect the true IAP, and the symphysis pubis or phlebostatic axis reference lines are not interchangeable with the midaxillary level.

Aim To observe the effects of activation of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 ( ALDH2 ) by ethanol on testis injury of type 2 diabetic rats. Methods Type 2 diabetic rats model were established by high-fat diet combined with low-dose streptozotocin ( STZ ) injec-tions. After the success of modeling, the rats were ran-domly divided into 3 groups ( n =6 ): normal control group (NC), type 2 diabetes group (T2DM) and eth-anol+type 2 diabetes group (EtOH+T2DM). Rats of EtOH + T2DM were treated with low-dose ethanol, then rats of NC and T2 DM were given normal diet for 8 weeks. After 8 weeks, the levels of the fasting blood glucose ( FBG ) , glycosylated hemoglobin ( HbA1 c ) and testosterone were tested, and the ratio of testis weight to body weight ( TW/BW ) was calculated. Morphological changes of testis tissue were observed by optical microscope. The levels of ALDH2 mRNA and transforming growth factorβ1 ( TGF-β1 ) mRNA in tes-tis tissue were measured. The expression of TGF-β1 in testis tissue was observed by immunohistochemical stai-ning, then the positive rate of TGF-β1 was calculated. Results Compared with NC, the levels of FBG, HbA1 c and TW/BW increased significantly and the level of testosterone decreased significantly in T2DM. The morphological observation showed that some semi-niferous tubules atrophied, spermatogenic cells de-creased and arrangemented loosely, Leydig cells de-creased in testicular interstitial. The level of ALDH2 mRNA in testis tissue decreased significantly, and the level of TGF-β1 mRNA and the positive rate of TGF-β1 in testis tissue increased significantly. However, compared with T2DM, the levels of FBG, HbA1c and TW/BW decreased, and the level of testosterone in-creased and the damage of testis tissue was attenuated in EtOH+T2DM. The level of ALDH2 mRNA in testis tissue increased significantly, and the level TGF-β1 mRNA and the positive rate of TGF-β1 in testis tissue decreased significantly. Conclusion Activating AL-DH2 can protect testis in type 2 diabetic rats, which may be related to the downregulation of TGF-β1 ex-pression.
