Objective: To evaluate the electron beam computed tomography(EBCT) three-dimensional reconstruction in the diagnosis of bowel obstruction.Methods: Seventy-eight patients suspected of bowel obstruction underwent EBCT with two-phase enhancement scanning and 32 of them were re-established by corona-MPR and sagittal-MPR.All the EBCT results were analyzed and compared with the clinical findings.Results: Seventy-three of the cases were diagnosed as bowel obstruction by EBCT,which were all confirmed by surgery or follow-up,with an accuracy rate of 100% for location diagnosis and 86.3% for etiology.Conclusion: EBCT 3D-reconstruction has great advantages in determining the location,etiology and blood-supply of bowel obstruction.

Objective Protein chip for mucin detection was prepared to detect the serum levels of mucin1(MUC1),mucin2(MUC2)and micin5ac(MUC5AC)of colorectal cancer patients,and to discuss the relationship between colorectal cancer and the expression of MUC1,MUC2 and MUC5AC in serum.Methods The protein chip was prepared with monoclone and polyclone antibodies for the measuement of the serum levels of MUC1,MUC2 and MUC5AC in 30 patients with colorectal cancer and 30 healthy adults as control,using the method of immuno-fluorescence.Results The serum levels of mucin and CEA in colorectal cancer group were higher than that in control group.The differences were significant between the two groups concerning MUC1(5.25?2.37 vs 3.65?1.82U/ml,P0.05).The positive expression of mucin was related with the cancer differentiation.The positive expression of MUC1 and MUC5AC was higher when cancer differentiation was low as compared with high and median differentiation,but the positive expression of MUC2 was higher in high and middle cancer differentiation.When the serum level of mucin was used as an indicator for the diagnosis of colorectal cancer,the sensibility and specificity were both higher.The sensibility and specificity of MUC1 were 82.1% and 78.1%,respectively,while of combined mucins(at least 2 in 3 mucins were positive)were 96.2% and 85.3%,respectively.Conclusion The application of protein chip for mucin detection on the measurement of serum levels of MUC1,MUC2 and MUC5AC is of higher sensibility and specificity in the diagnosis of colorectal cancer.The establishment of protein chip has provided a new approach to early diagnosis of colorectal cancer,and help estimate the prognosis.

To explore the clinical characteristics and imaging features of miliary tuberculomas in central nervous system (CNS).A total of 5 cases diagnosed with tuberculosis in CNS first diagnosed by neurologists in Navy General Hospital of PLA were enrolled in the study.All clinical and imaging data were collected and analyzed retrospectively.The main initial symptoms were fever and headache (4/5).Multiple diffused miliary lesions were shown by brain MRI,with maximum diameter ranged from 1-4 mm and ringshape or nodular enhancement after gadolinium injection.As mycobacterium tuberculosis could seldomly be found in serum and cerebrospinal fluid,contrast MRI remains the effective method for detecting miliary tuberculomas in CNS.

OBJECTIVE:To study the anti-oxidative effects of spirulina kinase (SPK) in vitro. METHODS:The methods of phenanthroine-Fe2+ oxidation method,DPPH and auto-oxidation of pyrogallol were used to measure the effects of different concen-trations of SPK on scavenging hydroxyl (OH-) free radical,DPPH free radical and superoxide anion (O2-) free radical;IC50 of SPK was calculated. Prussian blue reaction was used to determine total reducing ability(by absorbance)of different concentrations of SPK to Fe3+. Vitamin C(VC)was used as positive control in above trials. RESULTS:SPK could eliminate the OH-free radical, DPPH free radical and O2- free radical in concentration-dependant manner,and the maximum elimination rate of SPK to OH- free radical and DPPH free radical were 86.82% and 78.98%(IC50 were 54.31,0.636 g/L),which were higher than VC (64.77%, 73.49%). The maximum elimination rate of SPK to O2- free radical was 78.31%(IC50 was 3.918 g/L),which was lower than VC (94.14%). In reducing ability test,SPK improved absorbance in reducing ability test system,and maximum absorbance was simi-lar to VC in concentration-dependant manner. CONCLUSIONS:SPK has obvious anti-oxidant activities in vitro.

Objective To establish a rapid method for detection of drug-resistance mutation in HBV, based on PCR-MALDI-TOF MS, and to explore the influential factors on this method. Methods One hundred blood serum samples, which were collected from chronic HBV patients with single drug-resistance or multiple drug-resistance of Lamivudin, Adefovi, Entecavir and Telbivudine, and 10 kinds of mutant HBV plasmids were analyzed using PCR-MALDI-TOF MS and confirmed by PCR-based sequencing. Results Of 100 samples detected, thirty-one samples were positive for drug-resistance and 69 samples were negative. The PCR-MALDI-TOF MS results of 94 samples were completely consistent with PCR-based sequencing. Six samples were inconsistent , of which three samples were positive by the two methods, but more mutation loci were detected by PCR-MALDI-TOF MS than sequencing. The consistent rate of two methods was 94%,detection sensitivity was up to 100 copies/μl, and the cut off value of detectable mutation level was 5%.Conclusion PCR-MALDI-TOF MS could be used for rapid and simple analysis of the drug resistance for the clinical application with features of high sensitivity and accuracy, high throughput and automation.

Objective To preliminarily investigate the therapeutic effect of photodynamic therapy (PT) treating allergic rhinitis (AR).Methods Eighteen New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 3 groups,experimental group A,negative control group B and blank control group C.Rabbits of A and B groups were sensitized with ovalbumin (OVA) to get animal AR model.Group A was treated with PDT while group B and C were applied with natural light treatment.Symptoms and signs before and after treatment were compared and the change of nasal mucosa was observed with light microscope and transmission electron microscope.Results After PDT treatment,group A rabbits' AR symptoms and signs were improved significantly compared to group B,light microscope and transmission electron microscope observation showed that the number of inflammatory cells of group A rabbits decreased significantly and the mucosal structure returned to normal after PDT treatment.After 21 d,as compared with group C,the differences of the times of sneezing and scratching and nasal secretion had no statistical significance (P＞0.05).Conclusions PDT has certain therapeutic effect in experimental AR treatment,which can be used in AR treatment after consummating its therapeutic mechanism.

Objectives To investigate the ability of T1 mapping and intravoxel incoherent motion imaging (IVIM) parameters for evaluating renal allografts at the early stage after renal transplantation. Methods This prospective study protocol was approved by the local ethics committee, and written informed consent was obtained from all subjects. Sixty two recipients 2 to 4 weeks after kidney transplantation and 20 healthy volunteers (control group) underwent routine MRI, T1 mapping, and IVIM imaging (11 b values, 0 to 700 s/mm2). Recipients were divided into two groups base on their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR):37 recipients with good allograft function (eGFR≥60 ml·min-1·1.73 m-2) and 25 recipients with impaired allograft function (eGFR<60 ml·min-1·1.73 m-2). The ADC, true diffusion coefficient (ADCslow), pseudo-diffusion coefficient (ADCfast), perfusion fraction (f) and T1 values were measured on both cortex and medulla. Differences among groups were compared using the one-way analysis of variance. Correlations between eGFR and the parameters in renal allografts were assessed by using Pearson correlation analysis. ROC was performed to assess the diagnostic utilities of using these parameters to discriminate allografts with impaired function from good function. Results Excepting for cortical T1, ADCfast and medullary T1, f values, allografts with good function showed no differences in other parameters compared with healthy control. Excepting for medullary T1 and ADCfast,the other values showed significantly differences in allografts with impaired function compared to allografts with good function (all P<0.05). Excepting for medullary f and ADCfast values, allografts with impaired function showed significantly differences in the parameters compared with good function group(all P<0.05). In renal allografts, excepting for medullary T1, ADCfast, and f values, cortical T1 exhibited a negative correlation with renal function, and there was a significant positive correlation between eGFR and other parameters. Cortical T1 value showed high sensitivity(91.9%) to discriminate renal allografts with different function, with the threshold of 17.36 × 102 ms, and ADC value showed high specificity(96.0%)with the threshold of 1.98 × 10-3 mm2/s. Conclusion T1 mapping and IVIM technique may be useful for detecting renal allograft dysfunction, and be a reliable imaging for evaluating and monitoring allograft function.

OBJECTIVE:To study the anti-coagulation effect and mechanism of fibrinolytic enzyme SNFE in sipuculus nudus, and provide reference for further development of SNFE. METHODS:40 mice were randomly divided into blank control group(nor-mal saline),Xueshuantong group(positive control,15 mg/kg)and SNFE low-dose,high-dose group(15,30 mg/kg),10 in each group. After intravenous injection in tail,tail bleeding time (BT) and clotting time (CT) were respectively determined to investi-gate the anti-coagulation effect of SNFE. After taking blood in abdominal aorta of rats,test was divided into blank control group, positive control group and SNFE low-mass concentration,medium-mass concentration,high-mass concentration groups (0.25, 0.50,1.00 mg/mL). Prothrombin time(PT),re-calcium time(PRT)(using orokinase as positive drug,100000 U/mL),and max-mum platelet aggregation rate (PAG) in 5 min under adenosine diphosphate (ADP) inducer (using asprin as positive drug,0.50 mg/mL) were respectively determined,and anti-coagulation effect mechanism of SNFE was analyzed. RESULTS:Compared with blank control group,BT,CT of mice in each group were prolonged,with statistical significance in Xueshuantong group and SNFE high-dose group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Plasma PT of rats in positive control group,SNFE medium-dose,high-dose groups and PRT in each administration group were significantly prolonged(P<0.05 or P<0.01);and PAG in administration group was signifi-cantly reduced(P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:The fibrinolytic enzyme SNFE in sipuculus nudus can play its anti-coagulant effect by inhibiting the activity of coagulation factors in internal and external sources and ADP-induced platelet aggregation.
