With the development of medical imaging technology, hemodynamics-based functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has gradually become one of the major tools to investigate human brain function, however, it is of limited temporal resolution. In recent years, neuronal current MRI (nc-MRI) was proposed as a new imaging method to directly map the magnetic field change caused by neural activities. Theoretically, nc-MRI can non-inva- sively locate brain activities with very high spatial and temporal resolution, thus it may greatly improve the study of human brain function. This paper reviews the construction mechanism of nc-MRI, including theoretical model of the neuronal magnetic field and signal source. Arithmetic simulation of nc-MRI signal with an illustration of our work on simulation of a dendrite branch magnetic field is presented. New development of the experimental studies and foreground of nc-MRI area are discussed.

Objective To investigate the effect of IVIG on pre-existing anti-HLA-A2 Ab levels and graft skin survival.Methods C57BL/6 wild type mice were sensitized to HLA-A2 by intraperitoneal injec-tion (IP) of HLA-A2 TgN mouse spleen cells (C57BL/6-TgN [HLA-2.1]1Enge SC) expressing human HLA-A2 at day 0, week 3 and 4.Sensitized mice were respectively treated with human IVIG , albumin, gly-cine, or PBS for 5 days during week 7.Skin transplantation from TgN mice to C57BL/6 wild type mice was performed at week 10 .Efficacy of IVIG DES was assessed by measuring anti-HLA Ab levels by ELISA pre-/post-Rx and graft skin survival was monitored daily post-Tx.Results Changes of HLA-A2-IgG levels:IgG HLA-A2 class I Ab levels in all groups predictably increased from baseline following spleen cell IP and peaked at week 4 ( P <0.01 ) , indicating sensitization .IVIG-treated mice showed significantly lower IgG Ab levels vs.albumin, glycine and PBS-treated at week 9 post-desensitization ( P <0.01).IgG quickly increased to extremely high levels in all groups following skin transplantation ( P <0.01 ) .Graft skin sur-vival between Rx-groups were similar with all rejecting at about 7 days post-transplantation ( P >0.05 ) . Conclusion However, IVIG alone does not inhibit anti-HLA class I Ab production after skin transplanta-tion or prolong SG survival , indicating combination of IVIG with other immunosuppressant or more optimal protocol for desensitization might show more efficacy and should be under explored .

[ Objective ] To investigate the therapeutic effect of Chinese herbal medicines, which have the actions of dispersing stagnated liver-Qi and promoting bile secretion, clearing heat and removing damp, activating blood and removing blood-stasis, in the treatment of the third-level or above intrahepatic biliary duct stone. [Methods] After the routine surgical treatment including cholecystectomy, choledochotomy with T-tube drainage and choledochoscope lithotomy, 42 cases of third-level or above intrahepatic biliary duct stone received Dandao Paishi Mixture (DPM, mainly composed of Herba Lysimachiae, Radix Clematidis, Herba Artemisiae Scopariae, Radix Aucklandiae, Rhizoma Curcumae Longae, Radix Curcumae, etc.) for oral use. The effects of DPM on the intrahepatic biliary duct stone were evaluated after treatment. [Results] Before the treatment of DPM, the stones in third-level or above intrahepatic biliary ducts cannot be taken out; after the treatment of DPM, T-tube reverse biliary contrast examination showed that stones were removed in 39 (92.9%) cases, stones still existed in the common bile duct in 3 cases and then were removed by lithotomy through T-tube sinus of the common bile duct with Olympus fiber choledochoscope 8 weeks later. [Conclusion] DPM has good lytholytic and lithagogue effects for the treatment of third-level or above intrahepatic biliary duct stone and for intrahepatic biliary duct incarcerated stone. It can also reduce the postoperative residue of stone and recurrence rate.

The dynamic changes of tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?),interleukin-6(IL-6) and IL-8 were measured before and after treatment in all children.Serum Creactive protein(CRP) and total white blood cell(WBC) count were measured simultaneously.Clinical symptom and sign scores were(performed)(5 days) after treatment in children with pneumonia and SIRS complication.Results: Before(treatment),serum TNF-?,IL-6,IL-8 and CRP concentrations were significantly higher in treatment group and(control) group Ⅰ than(control) group Ⅱ(all P

Objective To investigate the status of treatment institution selection and its influencing factors in elderly patients with chronic diseases in a community in Changsha.Methods By using systematic sampling,400 elderly patients with chronic diseases from June to August 2012 were included in the investigation by questionnaires.The influencing factors were analyzed by binary logistic regression model or multinomial logistic regression model on the basis of the numbers of response variables.Results In mild conditions in self-consciousness,more than half of the elderly patients with chronic diseases (206 cases,51.5％) preferred community health service centers including private clinics (67 cases,16.8％),municipal hospitals (92 cases,23.0％),third-grade class-A hospitals (35 cases,8.8％).In serious conditions in self-consciousness,patients preferred third-grade class-A hospital (238 cases,59.5％) and municipal hospitals (162 cases,40.5％),no one selected the private clinics or community health service center (x2=443.240,P＜0.001).The analysis of impact factors for the first treatment institution selection in patients with serious conditions in self-consciousness showed that,compared with patients selecting the municipal hospital,the following personnel preferred to choose third-grade class-A hospital:patients in the staff remaining in positions (OR=32.38) and retirees (OR=15.17),patients with monthly income more than 5,000 yuan (OR=134.28),rural cooperative medical patients (OR=661.42),patients with highly trusting in community health service centers (OR=4.23),patients with BP and serum glucose determination at a frequency of once a month to every three months (OR=83.93),patients unknowing the telephone numbers of community health service centers(OR=3.02)and patients living far away from community health service centers (OR=15.70),patients with little information about community health service centers (OR=1.62).The analysis of impact factors for the first treatment institution selection in patients with mild conditions in self-consciousness showed that,compared with patients selecting the private hospitals,the following personnel preferred to choose community health service centers:patients with primary education level (OR=0.15),retired persons (OR=0.14),patients with higher health attention (OR=0.26),while persons with less health attention (OR-10.65) and patients living far away from community health service center (OR =5.22) were more willing to choose the private hospitals.Conclusions Patient selection for treatment agencies is affected mainly by the perceived severity,in addition,age,education level,employment status,income,health insurance type,trust and understanding on community health services centers,and the emphasis on health and the distance from community health services centers.

The changes in the tau protein phosphorylation and expression of bcl-2, and bax in rat parietal cortex neurons after focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) were explored, and the relationship between the tau protein phosphorylation and the expression of bax or apoptosis was clarified in order to elucidate the relationship between cerebral infarction and Alzheimer's disease. The rat focal cerebral I/R model was induced by occlusion of the right middle cerebral artery using the intraluminal suture method. The level of tau protein phosphorylation at Ser396, Ser404, Tyr231, Ser199/202 sites and the expression of bcl-2, bax and total tau 5 in rat parietal cortex during focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion were detected by Western blot. The relationship between the tau protein phosphorylation and the expression of bax, or apoptosis was examined by TUNEL method and double-labeling immunofluorenscence method. The results showed that the level of tau hyperphosphorylation at Ser199 / 202, Ser396, Ser404, Tyr231 sites and the expression levels of bcl-2, and bax were significantly higher in I/R group than in the sham group, but the ratio of bcl-2/bax was decreased. Neuronal apoptosis, bax expression and the tau protein hyperphosphorylation were co-localized. It is suggested that Alzheimer's disease-like pathological changes occur after cerebral I/R. The highly abnormal phosphorylation of tau protein plays a key role in cerebral I/R-induced apoptosis. The cerebral infarction may contribute to Alzheimer's disease occurrence and development.
