Objective To investigate the brain glucose metabolism in different stage of mixed-type multiple system atrophy (MSA).Methods Forty-six MSA patients with cerebellar or Parkinsonian symptoms and 18 healthy controls with similar age as patients were included.According to the disease duration,the patients were divided into three groups: group 1 (≤ 12 months,n=14),group 2 (13-24 months,n=13),group 3 (≥ 25 months,n =19).All patients and controls underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT brain imaging.To compare metabolic distributions between different groups,SPM 8 software and two-sample t test were used for image data analysis.When P<0.005,the result was considered statistically significant.Results At the level of P<0.005,the hypometabolism in group 1 (all t>3.49) was identified in the frontal lobe,lateral temporal lobe,insula lobe,anterior cingulate cortex,caudate nucleus and anterior cerebellar hemisphere.The regions of hypometabolism extended to posterolateral putamen and part of posterior cerebellar hemisphere in group 2 (all t>3.21).In group 3,the whole parts of putamen and cerebellar hemisphere were involved as hypometabolism (all t>4.08).In addition to the hypometabolism regions,there were also stabled hypermetabolism regions mainly in the parietal lobe,medial temporal lobe and the thalamus in all patient groups (all t>3.27 in group 1,all t>3.02 in group 2,all t>3.30 in group 3).Conclusions Disease duration is closely related to the FDG metabolism in the MSA patients.Frontal lobe,lateral temporal lobe,anterior cingulate cortex and caudate nucleus can be involved at early stage of the disease.Putaminal hypometabolism begins in its posterolateral part.Cerebellar hypometabolism occurs early at its anterior part.Besides,thalamus shows hypermetabolism in the whole duration.18F-FDG metabolic changes of brain can reflect the development of mixed-type MSA.

Lack of teachers' participating enthusiasm is the main problem that the institutions of teaching and faculty development face during the promoting process of faculty development projects. In this study, service marketing triangle theory was applied to the project promotion of the institutions of teaching and faculty development, the service marketing triangle theory for the project promotion of the center for teaching and faculty development was established. Through the three aspects of outside marketing, internal marketing and interaction marketing, the promotion strategies of faculty development projects were proposed. The application of these strategies in promoting the faculty development projects will enhance the teachers' initiative and enthusiasm to participate in service projects, so as to push faculty development.

Objective To observe the influence of exercises on the mRNA expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR-α) and its target genes of acyl-CoA oxidase (ACO),Enoyl-CoA-hydratase and 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA-dehydrogenase (EHHADH) in the skeletal muscles in insulin-resistance mice to develop a way to improve the lipid metabolism.Methods Twenty male ApoE knockout mice were randomly divided into two groups,the high-fat diet group (group HFD) and the exercise training group (group Ex).The HFD group were fed with highfat diet,while the Ex group were fed in the same way,with additionally swimming training.And ten healthy male C57BL/6j mice were chosen as the control group(group ND).After 12 weeks of intervention,the serum lipid,blood glucose and insulin levels were determined,and homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance index (Homa-IRI) was calculated.The bilateral gastrocnemiuses were cut to be observed under a transmission electron microscope,and the mRNA expression of PPAR-α,ACO and EHHADH in skeletal muscle were measured using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results The transmission electron microscope showed that the sarcolemma edema,mitochondrial swelling,as well as focal myocytolysis and edema within myofibrils were observed in the HFD group.The total cholesterol,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol,free fatty acid,fasting glucose,insulin and HomaIRI of the HFD group were significantly higher than the control group (P < 0.05),while the mRNA expression of PPAR-α,ACO and EHHADH was significantly deceased than the latter(P < 0.05).After swimming,the abovementioned pathological changes disappeared.The serum lipid of the Ex group were significantly lower (P < 0.05),while HDL was significantly higher (P < 0.05).And fasting insulin,glucose and HOMA-IR of the Ex group were significantly lower (P < 0.05),while the mRNA expression of the above in the Ex group were significantly increased (P <0.05).Conclusion Swimming training could improve insulin resistance and metabolic disorder of lipid of ApoE knockout mice.The possible mechanisms may be through up-regulating the expression of PPAR-α,which in turn stimulates the expression of ACO and EHHADH mRNA to strengthen fatty acid β-oxidation.

Objective To study the effect of red cell and plasma protein parameters on progression, prognosis and recurrence of cerebral infarction. Methods Clinical data from 105 patients with cerebral infarction were analyzed. The pa?tients were divided into four paired groups:progressive stroke group and complete stroke group, short-term favorable progno?sis group and short-term unfavorable prognosis group, long-term favorable prognosis group and long-term unfavorable prog?nosis group, relapsed cerebral infarction group and not relapsed group by different criterion. The red cell and plasma protein parameters were compared between groups. Results There were significantly higher mean corpuscular volume(fL:85.92± 4.50 vs 83.79±4.64,t=2.164,P<0.05), red cell distribution width(fL:13.50±2.45 vs 11.90±2.90,t=2.694,P<0.01), globu?lin(g/L:27.46±4.33 vs 24.79±4.03,t=3.029,P<0.01)and lower albumin(g/L:39.00±3.86 vs 42.89±4.45,t=4.242,P<0.01)in progressive stroke group than those of complete stroke group. The elevated red cell distribution width, reduced albu?min were the risk factors of progressive stroke. In the short-term unfavorable prognosis group, red cell distribution width was significantly higher than that in short-term favorable prognosis group(fL:13.90 ± 2.45 vs 12.00 ± 2.12,t=2.905,P<0.01). The red cell distribution width was positively correlated with mRS scores assessed 3 months and 18 months after cerebral in?farction(P<0.01). Conclusion Progressive stroke rate increases in cerebral infarction patients with elevated red cell distri?bution and reduced albumin;Red cell distribution width has a certain reference value for forecasting the prognosis of cere?bral infarction .
