Objective To investigate MSCT findings of hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia(FNH),and improve its diagnostic value. MethodsThree-phasia MSCT scans of 16 cases with FNH confirmed by pathology were reviewed retrospectively. ResultsThere was single in 13 cases,double in 3 cases.17 lesions is hypodensity and 3 lesions is isodensity on plain MSCT.During MSCT enhancement all lesions were markedly and homogeneously enhanced in arterial phase.isodensity in portal and delay plase.1 lesion found scar. ConclusionDynamic contrast-emhanced MSCT could show the charcteristics of FNH.

Objective To investigate the effects of morphine on PTEN expression and NF-κB activity in human gastric carcinoma cell line MGC-803.Methods The human gastric cancer cell line MGC-803 was purchased from Cell Biology Research Institute,Chinese Academy of Sciences,and cultured in DMEM liquid culture medium.The cells were randomly divided into 2 groups(n = 6 each): control group and morphine group.The cells was exposed to 0.1 μmol/L morphine in morphine group.The apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry after being incubated with morphine for 24 h.PTEN expression and NF-κB activity were detected using RT-PCR and Western blot.Results The apoptotic rate was significantly increased,PTEN expression was up-regulated and NF-κB activity was significantly decreased in morphine group compared with control group(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Morphine can promote the apoptosis in human gastric cancer cells by up-regulating PTEN expression and decreasing NF-κB activity.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the occurrence of ADR induced by over-the-counter(OTC)drug in order to guide the rational use of drugs. METHODS:45 cases of ADR induced by OTC drug were analyzed retrospectively in terms of patient's gen-eral information,allergic history,allergenic drugs,reason for drug use,route of administration,incubation period,days of hospi-talization,clinical manifestation,treatment,outcome,etc. RESULTS:Among 45 patients,there were 14 male and 31 female. The patients were mainly 20-30 year-old(31.1%). Three patients had previous history of allergy(6.7%). Most ADR were induced by oral drugs(82.2%). Reasons for drug use were mainly disease of respiratory system(23 cases,51.1%). The results of causality as-sessment were positive in 3 patients(6.7%),probable in 35(n=77.8%),and possible in 7 patients(15.6%). ADR were mainly induced by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs,57.8%),Chinese patent medicine (20.0%),drugs for external use (17.8%). The clinical manifestations mainly included exanthematous drug eruption (33.3%),erythama multiforme drug eruption (24.4%),urticarial drug eruption(13.3%). CONCLUSIONS:NSAIDs are the main allergenic drugs,and ADR induced by OTC traditional Chinese medicine can not be ignored. To improve medical knowledge and skills of the public and the scientific use of OTC drug are beneficial to improve the clinical treatment level.

Objective To discuss the quantitative diagnosis of stagnation of Qi and blood stasis syndrome in chronic prostatitis. To make diagnosis chart and ensure diagnosis threshold level which provide statistics evidence for syndrome differentiation of TCM. Methods By the statistical ways, 168 cases of chronic prostatitis belong to stagnation of Qi blood and stasis syndrome and 198 cases of non-stagnation of Qi and blood stasis syndrome were investigated. To make a diagnosis chart and ensure diagnosis threshold level by applying the method of the maximum likelihood discriminatory analysis. Results The quantitative diagnosis chart was made and diagnosis threshold level was 26. According to the retrospective and prospective test, its sensitivity, especially degree, coincidence rate, error rate and positive likelihood ratio were 94.64%, 88.89%, 91.53%, 8.47%, 8.52 and 94.28%, 90.32%, 92.42%, 7.58%, 9.74. Conclusion The indexes of the quantitative diagnosis have good objectivity. According to the retrospective and prospective test, the diagnosis chart was proved to be practical.

Objective To study the value of CT diagnosis of atraumatic acute abdominal disease and how to select CT scan rationally.Methods The CT findings of 319 cases of atraumatic acute abdominal disease were reviewed restrospectively.Results Of 319 cases,226 cases of non-traumatic acute abdomen had positive findings on CT,the positive rate was 70.84%.Of them,the diseases included:urinary tract system in 63 cases,bile system in 62 cases,pancreas in 41 cases,gastro-intestinal system in 37 cases and others in 23 cases.The positive rate of CT findings was higher with aging in non-traumatic acute abdomen.Conclusion CT is of diagnostic value in atraumatic acute abdominal disease.

Objective To study the X-ray and CT representations of primary malignant lymphoma of bone.Methods X-ray and CT representations of primary malignant lympoma of bone in 27 cases proved by operation and pathology,combined with clinic manifestations,operation and pathology were analysed.Results The tumors located in vertebra were 14 cases(51.9%),in tubular bone were 9 cases(33.3%).The imaging findings included bone destroy in 85.7%,bone sclerosis in 7%;only 4 cases appeared light periosteous reaction;one case appeared multiple focuses.Conclusion When the dissolved bone destruction without periosteous reaction,presented soft tissue mass in vertebras or tubular bone are showed on X-ray films or CT,the possibility of bone lymphoma shonld be considered,but this neoplasm is lack of characteristic imaging features.

Objective To set up a method of detecting platelet associated antibody(PA Ig) by flow cytometry(FCM),and to investigate the value of FCM method in the diagnosis of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura(ITP).Methods We detected the platelet associated antibody of 20 healthy donors and 10 patients with ITP.These samples were also measured with ELISA.The results of FCM were compared with the results of ELISA.Results By FCM,the measured value of PA IgG,PA IgA and PA IgM,from 20 normal dornors,were 2.56?2.08%、13.75?5.98% and 13.90?7.28%,respectively.In patients with ITP,PA IgG,PA IgA and PA IgM were 28.13?17.74%、25.07?16.84% and 23.22?17.85%.Conclusion FCM can be a rapid,sensitive and new method in detecting platelet autoantibody,and has better potential than ELISA.
