ObjectiveInvestigate the value and feasibility of image registration with reverse rotation in lateral cerebral DSA.Methods ( 1 ) Experimental study:the target images were subtracted directly,and subtracted again after reverse rotation.Software of registration and subtraction with reverse rotation edited by the author utilizing Visual Basic.The function of the automatic angle detection by the software were evaluated to see whether it detected the angle of line.The subtraction function of DSA by the software was evaluated.(2) Clinical retrospective study:the untreated mask and target inages of 15 patients with motion along vertical axis during lateral cerebral DSA were uploaded to the software.The target images were processed with and without the software to get two sets of images.( 3 ) Evaluation:four experienced radiologists read and compared the two sets of the images,and graded their findings.Results ( 1 ) The automatic detection by the software suggested that the target images should be rotated counterclockwise 1.3°. The subtraction result of the software was satisfactory.(2)In the 15 sets of images,there were only three sets of images deemed optimal after traditional subtraction.After reverse rotation,artifacts were significantly reduced and the image sharper. There were ten cases with significant artifacts after traditional subtraction,and those images were sharper and showed more peripheral vessels after reverse rotation. The traditional subtraction images of two sets could not be interpreted,the reverse rotation registration images reached the diagnostic quality.(3)Subjective evaluation: there were more information and less noise and distortion in the registration images with reverse rotation than in the traditional subtraction. But the image resolution decreased slightly after reverse rotation registration.ConclusionThe registration of digital angiography with reverse rotation can improve the image quality in lateral cerebral DSA.

CD38 is a multifunctional enzyme expressed in a variety of mammalian tissues, its catalytic activity was involved in a wide range of physiological processes. Based on the reported inhibitor of human CD38 NADase, 33 purine derivatives were designed and synthesized. The biological activity assay showed that compounds 20 and 38 exhibited almost the same extent of inhibitory activities on human CD38 NADase as the lead compound H2. The results also revealed that small substituents at C-6 of purine ring gave no obvious effect on inhibitory activity, but phenylpropionyl moiety at N-2 could affect the binding mode of the compound with CD38. This study provides a reliable basis for future rational design of inhibitors for CD38.

Objective To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine added to ropivacaine administered locally on prevention of tourniquet?related hypertension in the patients undergoing total knee arthroplast. Methods Ninety patients of both sexes, aged 58-74 yr, weighing 60-78 kg, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠ?Ⅲ, scheduled for elective unilateral total knee arthroplast, were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n=30 each) using a random number table: ropivacaine group ( group R) , dexmedetomidine added to ropivacaine administered locally group ( group D + R ) , and dexmedetomidine administered intravenously + ropivacaine group ( group Div+R ) . Femoral nerve block:0.5% ropivacaine 15 ml was injected in group R; the mixture ( 15 ml) of 0. 5% ropivacaine 20 ml plus dexmedetomidine 60 μg was injected in group D+R; 0.5% ropivacaine 15 ml was injected in group Div+R. Lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block: 0.5% ropivacaine 5 ml was injected in group R; the mixture 5 ml was injected in group D+R; 0.5% ropivacaine 5 ml was injected in group Div+R. General anesthesia was induced after the end of nerve block. In group Div+R, dexmedetomidine was infused as a bolus of 0.5 μg∕kg over 10 min starting from anesthesia induction, followed by an infusion of 0.4 μg·kg-1 ·h-1 until 30 min before the end of surgery. A tourniquet was applied and inflated ( 266-304 mmHg) within 90 min. Before induction of anesthesia ( T0 ) , and at 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 min after the tourniquet was inflated ( T1?7 ) , mean arterial pressure and heart rate were recorded. The occurrence of hypertension, hypotension, tachycardia and bradycardia was recorded when the tourniquet was inflated. Agitation was assessed and scored after removal of the endotracheal tube. The time for recovery of breathing, emergence time, and time for removal of the endotracheal tube were recorded. Results Compared with group R, the mean arterial pressure and heart rate were significantly decreased at T1?7 in D+R and Div+R groups, the incidence of hypertension and tachycardia was decreased, the incidence of bradycardia was increased, and agitation score was decreased in D+R and Div+R groups ( P<0.05 or 0.01) . There was no significant difference in the parameters mentioned above between group D+R and group Div+R (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the time for recovery of breathing, emergence time, and time for removal of the endotracheal tube between the three groups ( P>0.05 ) . Conclusion Dexmedetomidine added to ropivacaine administered locally can exert effect on prevention of tourniquet?related hypertension in the patients undergoing total knee arthroplast, and the effect is similar to that of dexmedetomidine administered intravenously.
