Objective To evaluate the value of multimodal MRI in differential diagnosis of lung squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma.Methods Routine sequence,diffusion weighted imaging(DWI)and dynamic enhancement images about 1 6 squamous cell carcinoma and 21 adenocarcinoma patients were analyzed retrospectively.Taken a record about the size,edge,internal signal, enhancement types and apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)values when b=600 s/mm2,and the difference in the degree of pathological differentiation was studied.Results The average diameter of squamous cell carcinoma was (4.17±2.0)cm,while adenocarcinoma was (3.81±1.8)cm,lobulated and spiculation were the most common signs in both of them.Squamous cell carcinoma showed low T1signal in 12 cases(75%),low T2signal in 7 cases(43.7%),adenocarcinoma showed high T1signal in 10 cases(47.6%),high T2 signal in 14 cases(66.7%).Squamous cell carcinoma had lower ADC value than adenocarcinoma(1.27×10-3mm2/s vs 1.38×10-3mm2/s), and well differentiated tumors had higher ADC values than poor ones,it was statistically significant.The most common time-signal intensity curves were type A in squamous cell carcinoma(62.5%)and type B in adenocarcinoma(50%).Conclusion MRI findings of squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma are associated with the biological characteristics,squamous cell carcinoma has shorter T2signal and adenocarcinoma has shorter T1signal.Squamous cell carcinoma has lower ADC value than adenocarcinoma and is dominated by outflow curve (type A),these features are helpful in subtype and differential diagnosis.

Laboratory animals are indispensable strategic resources that support technological progress and innovation. At the same time, the biosafety of laboratory animals is an important component of national public health security. The production and use of laboratory animals require statutory administrative licensing. This article first summarizes the current status of management and development in Sichuan Province by reviewing the number, types, and industry distribution of license-holding facilities, the area of facilities and the status of top ten largest facilities by area, the types and quantities of laboratory animals produced, and the production capacity of certain facilities, as well as the types and quantities of laboratory animals used and the status of the top ten facilities by animal quantity. Then, it discusses the development advantages of the laboratory animal industry in Sichuan Province, including its leading industrial scale in the western region, increasing regional influence, and emerging comprehensive benefits. However, there are significant issues such as the inability of laboratory animal production to adequately meet the demand, the need to improve the level of technological innovation, and the challenges of ensuring animal safety management. Finally, corresponding countermeasures suggestions are proposed, including actively supporting the improvement of quality and efficiency of laboratory animal production, establishing a stable support mechanism for technological innovation, and placing a strong emphasis on animals safety management. This article aims to provide a reference for further improving the management level and industry development momentum of laboratory animals in Sichuan Province and other provinces.

Improving laboratory animal management system is one of the effective ways to promote the legalization and standardization of laboratory animal management. This article systematically reviews the relevant content and requirements of the latest laws, regulations, normative documents, and standards formulated and promulgated by the state since 2019 regarding the management of experimental animals. It also analyzes the current institutional framework in managing experimental animals in Sichuan Province from four aspects: administrative management, quality assurance, biosafety, and local standards. Furthermore, this article summarizes the existing problems and proposes corresponding policy recommendations in a targeted manner, aiming to provide a reference for the formulation of robust experimental animal management policies in Sichuan Province.

ObjectiveTo provide reference for further strengthening the management of laboratory animals in Sichuan Province by reviewing and analyzing the results of parasitic and microbial quality inspections of laboratory animals from 2017 to 2023. Methods Sichuan Province has 31 licensed laboratory animal production units, with the main species including mice, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs, monkeys, and pigs. Sampling inspections and reports were conducted for units with laboratory animal production qualifications in accordance with current national and local standards for laboratory animal classification. The quality inspection results for various laboratory animals in Sichuan Province from 2017 to 2023 were analyzed. Results With the exception of 2018, annual quality inspections of laboratory animals were conducted every year between 2017 and 2023. Mice: In 2017, positive results for helminths, flagellates, Salmonella, murine hepatitis virus antibodies, and murine pneumonia virus antibodies were detected, with a pass rate of only 42.9%. In 2019, Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae were detected, with a pass rate of 86.7%. In 2021, Sendai virus antibodies were detected, yielding a pass rate of 85.7%.The pass rate in 2020, 2022, and 2023 was 100%. Rats: In 2017, positive results were found for helminths, mycoplasma antibodies, Staphylococcus aureus, Sendai virus antibodies, murine pneumonia virus antibodies, rat parvovirus RV strain antibodies, rat parvovirus (H-1) strain antibodies, and rat coronavirus antibodies, with a pass rate of 40.0%. In 2019, mycoplasma antibodies, Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae were detected, with a pass rate of 35.0%. No positive indicators were detected in 2020. In 2021, Sendai virus antibodies and rat parvovirus RV strain antibodies were detected, with a pass rate of 50.0%. In 2022, positive results for rat parvovirus RV strain antibodies were found, yielding a pass rate of 87.5%. In 2023, Pasteurella pneumotropica and Klebsiella pneumoniae were detected, with a pass rate of 85.7%. Dogs: In 2017 and 2019, the antibody titers for rabies virus and canine distemper virus were below the required standard, with pass rates of 33.3% and 20.0%, respectively. In 2020 and 2022, the pass rate was 100%. Guinea pigs (general grade): In 2019, positive results for Toxoplasma antibodies were detected, with a pass rate of 80.0%. In all other years, the pass rate was 100%. Monkeys: In 2019, positive results for Toxoplasma gondii and rhesus herpesvirus type I antibodies were found, with a pass rate of 87.5%.In 2020 and 2022, rhesus herpesvirus type I antibodies were positively detected, yielding pass rates of 93.3% and 97.5%, respectively. The pass rates in 2021 and 2023 were 100%. Clean guinea pigs, rabbits and pigs all passed the inspection each year. ConclusionIssues related to the parasitic and microbial quality of laboratory animals persist in Sichuan Province. Supervision and sampling inspections have proven to be effective in identifying these issues promptly, serving as a critical measure to ensure the quality of laboratory animals. The results of these inspections offer valuable data to support the healthy development of the laboratory animal industry in Sichuan Province.
