ObjectiveTo observe effects of modulated medium frequency low frequency current hydroelectric bath therapy on sequela of ankle fracture.Methods32 sequela patients of ankle fracture were treated with ZM-C type intellectual faculties intermediate frequency therapeutics instrument. Modulated medium frequency square all wave,the frequency of carry wave was 4 KHz,and the frequency of modulated wave was 100 Hz. The water temperature was 40℃. 30 minutes was a time,12 times was a course. Before and after treatment,results were contrasted themselves.ResultsAfter treatment,32 patients all got satisfactory effects,the shorter of the course,the better of the effect.ConclusionThe modulated medium frequency low frequency current hydroelectric bath therapy is a simple,safe and better effect method for sequela of ankle fracture.

Objective To explore the feasibility of low dose in MSCT thoracic angiography using Z-axis modulation. Methods The consecutive 60 patients were averagely divided into 3 groups and underwent thoracic angiography with a Toshiba Aquilion 16 scanner. The whole chest acquisition was commenced in automatic exposure control with Z-axis modulation 20-25 seconds after the contrast material was administered at the rate of 3.5-4. 0 ml/s. With the noise index (SD) as the variable, three study groups were classified as A (SD = 12) , B (SD = 15 ), and C (SD = 18 ). The mAs value per slice and the number of slices were recorded. The noises and artifacts of the axial images and the acceptability of CT angiogram were evaluated. The difference among the groups was compared by using ANOVA or nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test. The threshold of the P value was 0. 05. Results The mean mAs value (46. 4 ± 15.6) mAs in group A was the highest but the SD value (21.6 ±7.7) was the lowest. The mean mAs value ( 37. 0 ± 13.5 ) and the SD value ( 24. 0 t 5.4 ) in group B were the mediate. The mean mAs value ( 20. 7 ±6.3) mAs in group C was the lowe(s)t but the SD value ( 30. 7 ± 6.9) was the highest ( H = 31. 390, P =0. 000). The middle slice images in all patients had the smallest mAs (40. 9,31.3,17. 1 for group A,B,C,respectively; F =9. 578, H =22. 230, F =21. 180,P =0. 000) and SD values( 16. 3, 20. 0,25.4 for group A,B,C, respectively; H = 28. 982, H = 20. 824, H = 24. 396, P = 0. 000). The acceptability of CT angiogram in all patients was excellent. The CT value of descending aorta in group A, B, and C was ( 335 ± 85 ) HU,(334 ±56)HU, and (427 ± 63 )HU, respectively. Conclusion Low dose in MSCT thoracic angiography using Z-axis modulation is feasible. We can use low dose (20 mAs, etc. ) for CT angiography when the contrast is significant.

Objective:To explore the antibacterial effect of Belamcanda Chinensis DC and Por tulaca oleracece L on P.aeruginosa (PA) in vitro.Methods:Fourty six strains PA were tested for minimum inhibition concentrati on ( MIC) by water decoct agents of the two drugs.MIC50 and MIC90 were st atistically studied.Results:For Belamcanda Chinensis DC,MIC was 31.25～3.90 g/L;MIC50 was 7 .81 g/L,and MIC90 was 15.62 g/L;whereas， for portulaca oleracece L,MIC was 31 .25～7.81 g/L, MIC50 was 15.62 g/L,and MIC90 was 31.25 g/L.Conclusion:Both of the two drugs have stronger antibacterial effects on P.ae ruginsosa in vitro.

Objective To investigate the differential diagnostic values of CT bronchial sign for peripheral solitary pulmonary lesions(SPLs).Methods One hundred and eleven patients with peripheral SPLs were scanned using multi-slice helical CT(MSCT),and multiplanar reconstruction was performed to show the relationship between the lesion and bronchus,the diffefences between the benign and malignancy were compared by using chi-square test.Results Bronchial cutoff rate in malignant lesions(47/95,49.5%)was markedly hi er than that in benign lesions(10/42,23.8%.X12=7.896,P＜0.05),the frequency of type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ air bronchogram presented in malignant lesions(10/11.8/9)was higher than benign lesions(1/11,1/9.X2=6.975,4.818,P＜0.05),but type Ⅳ in benign lesions(12/17)was more common than that in malignant lesions(5/17.X2=7.390,P＜0.05).No significant difference was found in bronchus ran at the periphery of the lesion and bronchus dragged by the lesion between benign(9/24.1/4)and malignant lesions(15/24,3/4.X2=0.641,0.062,P＞0.05).The focal bronchial wall thickening in malignancy(21/22)was markedly higher than benign lesions(1/22.X2=4.185.P＜0.05),whereas the extensive thickening in benign lesiom(4/7)was more common(3/7.X2=8.650,P＜0.05).Conclusion CT bronchial sign is very important in the differentiation of benign and malignant pulmonary lesions.

BACKGROUND: Gene therapy is a popular topic in domestic and overseas studies on biological therapy for brain tumor.OBJECTIVE: By using a newly constructed eukaryotic expression vector of pCR3-TK, the effect of the HSV-TK/ACV system on the proliferative activity of human glioma cells was investigated.DESIGN: Experimental study based on cells.SETTING: Department of neurosurgery and department of oncology in a university hospital.MATERIALS: The study was conducted at the National Key Laboratory of Veterinary Biotechnology of Harbin Veterinary Research Institute from January to April in 2004. The eukaryotic expression vector of pCR3-TK was constructed by the author. The TJ905 strain was a gift from professor Pu Pei-yu, who worked in the Neurology Institute of Tianjin city. The nontransfected cells and the cells transfected with pCR3-Uni vector were set as controls.METHODS: By using Lipofectamine(a cationic liposome), the pCR3-Uni vector and the recombinant pCR3-TK plasmid(inserted with HSV-TK gene)were transfected into the human glioma cell strain-TJ905. Then the positive clones were picked out and were given ACV(50 mg/L) . Totally 72 hours later, the cover slips were collected and silver staining for nucleolus organizer regions(AgNORs) was performed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: After the ACV treatment and AgNORs staining, the numbers of silver-stained granules in TJ905 cells with or without transfections were counted respectively.RESULTS: In those cells transfected with HSV-TK gene, after ACV treatment, a significant decreasing in proliferative activity could be observed, and the average numbers of the silver-stained granules in cells transfected with pCR3-Uni or pCR3-TK were 14.33 and 6.67 respectively( P ＜ 0.01).CONCLUSION: As an easy-to-operate method, AgNOR counting is helpful for the studies on the proliferative activity of cells and the investigations into the potential anti-tumor mechanism of the HSV-TK/ACV system.
