Chinese Journal of Medical Imaging Technology 2017;33(8):1264-1268
Objective To investigate the feasibility and value of automatic segmentation of infant brain images based on diffusion tensor image (DTI).Methods A method of segmentation of infant brain based on DTI images was proposed.The method was mainly included two stages:①Extracting the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) using the distribution of water;②Extracting the white matter (WM) adopting the anisotropic diffusion of water in neurons,followed by distinguishing the gray matter (GM) component.Results Through the feature selection method designed in this study,the effective DTI feature combination was selected.The first step was to extract CSF with mean diffusity (MD) and the third eigenvalue (L3),and the second step was to extract WM and GM with fractional anisotropy (FA) and the L3.The highest average similarity was obtained by the two steps.The two-step segmentation could be successfully performed in infant brain image segmentation and satisfied with the split effect.Conclusion The automatic segmentation of infant brain based on DTI in this study is reasonable and feasible,and has high segmentation accuracy.

BACKGROUND:Analgesia in different ways can be selected for the elderly in hip and knee arthroplasty. Considering the actual situation of the elderly patients, choice of anesthesia should be reasonable in order to achieve fast acting, long lasting time and good analgesic effect. OBJECTIVE:To explore the analgesic effect of ropivacaine of lumbar epidural anesthesia on elderly knee arthroplasty. METHODS:A total of 78 elderly patients aged 80-96 years, who were treated with hip and knee arthroplasty in the Shenyang Orthopaedic Hospital from September 2011 to September 2014, were enrol ed in this study. They were equal y and randomly assigned to control group and observation group, and separately administered continuous epidural anesthesia and lumbar epidural anesthesia with ropivacaine. The excel ent and good rate, onset time, anesthetic induction, frequency of use of Duffing mixture, and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The excel ent and good rate of analgesic effect was higher in the observation group (97%) than in the control group (87%) (P<0.05). Onset time was significantly shorter, the dose of anesthetic was significantly less, frequency of use of Duffing mixture was significantly less in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). The difference was not significant in adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05). Above results indicated that lumbar epidural anesthesia of ropivacaine obtained good analgesic effects during elderly knee arthroplasty.

Objective:To investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided transverse abdominal plane block combined with dexmedetomidine on cesarean section.Methods:Eighty pregnant women undergoing elective cesarean section under general anesthesia in Binzhou Central Hospital from October 2017 to October 2019 were included in this study. They were randomly assigned to undergo either cesarean section under general anesthesia followed by patient- controlled intravenous analgesia (control group, n = 40) or ultrasound-guided transverse abdominal plane block combined with intravenous dexmedetomidine administration (observation group, n = 40). Analgesic efficacy and the analgesic effect on puerperas and their newborns were compared between the observation and control groups. Results:At 2, 4 and 12 hours after surgery, the Visual Analogue Scale score in the observation group was (2.1 ± 0.9) points, (2.2 ± 0.7) points, (3.0 ± 0.6) points, respectively, which was significantly lower than (4.4 ± 1.3) points, (4.9 ± 1.2) points, (3.9 ± 0.8) points in the control group, respectively ( t = 8.946, 7.854, 6.246, all P < 0.05). At 2, 4 and 12 hours after surgery, the comfort score in the observation group was (3.4 ± 0.8) points, (3.2 ± 0.7) points, (3.3 ± 0.7) points, respectively, which was significantly higher than (2.1 ± 0.7) points, (2.2 ± 0.9) points and (2.5 ± 0.8) points respectively in the control group ( t = 7.235, 6.130, 5.953, all P < 0.05). After surgery, the number of times the demand button of the anesthesia pump in the observation group was pressed was (8.4 ± 2.9), with the rate of patient satisfaction of 97.50% (39/40), which was significantly higher than that in the control group [13.1 ± 3.7, 77.50% (31/40), t = 7.036, χ2 = 9.347, both P < 0.05). At 1 and 2 days after surgery, the cumulative amount of anesthetics used for patient-controlled intravenous analgesia was (52.1 ± 1.9) mL and (121.7 ± 4.1) mL respectively, which were less than (63.6 ± 2.4) mL and (146.5 ± 5.3) mL in the control group, respectively ( t = 6.240 and 8.842, both P < 0.05). The score of extubation quality in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [(1.3 ± 0.3) points vs. (3.2 ± 0.5) points, t = 6.664, P < 0.05]. There was statistically significant difference in cortisol content between the two groups at 10 minutes after extubation and at the time points of fetus removal, skin incision and intubation (all P < 0.05). In the observation group, the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the umbilical cord blood was significantly reduced, the partial pressure of oxygen and the oxygenation index in the umbilical cord blood were significantly increased, and Apgar score at 1 minute after birth was significantly increased (all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Ultrasound-guided transverse abdominal plane block combined with dexmedetomidine can enhance the anesthetic effect on cesarean section, prolong analgesic time, reduce the amount of analgesics, improve the operation effect, reduce maternal stress responses, and improve maternal and infant health.

Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2012;47(3):228-231
OBJECTIVE: To establish an in vitro equilibrium dialysis method for studying the plasma binding rate of brazilein. METHODS: Equilibrium dialysis was used to determine the binding rates of brazilein to bovine serum albumin and rat plasma, and the compound concentration was determined by HPLC. All the biological samples were handled with acetic ether-extraction. RESULTS: The bovine serum albumin binding rates of brazilein at low, medium and high concentrations ranged from 38.5% to 50.8%, and the rat plasma binding rate of brazilein ranged from 86.2% to 97.3%. CONCLUSION: Brazilein has high binding capacity to plasma, and the phospholipid components may have major contribution to the binding between brazilein and plasma.

Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide. Although a variety of cancer therapies, such as surgical resection and local ablation, chemoembolization, radiotherapy, and systemic chemotherapy, have developed rapidly in recent years, the curative effect and 5 year-survival rate of cancer remain to be unsatisfactory. In recent years, with the deepening basic research of hydrogen, its role on the treatment of various diseases including cancer has attracted an increased attention. Hydrogen can promote the apoptosis of colon cancer cells, and which combined with 5-fluorouracil has a synergistic effect and can reduce the renal toxicity induced by cisplatin, without affecting its anti-tumor effect. Hydrogen can alleviate the side effects of radiotherapy, significantly improve the quality of life for patients with liver cancer, and does not affect the effect of radiotherapy. Hydrogen application provides a new therapeutic approach to the treatment of cancer. The specific mechanism of hydrogen in cancer treatment needs further study. This article reviewes the research progress of the role of hydrogen on the treatment of cancer, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, adjuvant chemoradiotherapy, and the regulation of signaling pathways.
