Objective To study algorithm expression of the optimal reconstruction increment with which images could be reconstructed without loss of z-direction spatial resolution for multislice spiral CT.Methods Using Gauss function and signal sampling principle,an algorithm expression was deduced to calculate the optimal reconstruction increment with which images could be reconstructed without loss of zdirection spatial resolution.Spiral slice sensitivity profile (SSP) phantom was scanned using Somatom Sensation 64-slice spiral CT and temporal bone protocol as those used for clinic,axial images were reconstructed with slice thickness of 0.600 mm and increment of 0.100,0.300,0.400 and 0.500 mm respectively.Then SSPs and full width at half maximum (FWHM) were measured and modulation transfer functions were obtained by Fourier transfer from SSPs.Axial CT scan of 7 normal temporal bones in 6 patients were obtained by the same CT system and parameters as above.Coronal MPR images of temporal bone out of different reconstruction increment were obtained and the quality of reconstructed images were independently assessed by three senior radiologists using a four-point scale and blinded the information of reconstruction.Experimental data were processed and two-way ANOVA(in which Dunnett t test was selected for multiple comparisons) was performed with statistic software SPSS10.0.P ＜ 0.05 was considered as significant difference.Results (1) The measured FWHM of reconstruction slice thickness of 0.600 mm was 0.665 mm,so the optimal reconstruction increment calculated with the algorithm expression in this article was 0.296 mm(≈0.300 mm).Objective evaluation showed that there was obviously aliasing in high spatial frequency range of MTF curve when reconstruction increment was more than 0.300 mm,i.e.both 0.400 and 0.500 mm.Clinical scores of coronal MPR images of temporal bone reconstructed with different increment had significant difference(F =505.374,P ＜ 0.01).Treating reconstruction increment of 0.100 mm as a control group and comparing another groups against it,there was no significant difference for reconstruction increment of 0.300 mm (t =-0.222,P ＞ 0.05),while there were significant difference for 0.400 and 0.500 mm (t =-1.333、-15.889,P ＜ 0.05,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion It was proved that the angorithm expression deduced in this article was proper because of the consistence between the calculated value and the results from objective and clinical evaluation.The optimal reconstruction increment without loss of z-direction spatial resolution is 0.445 times as large as FWHM for multislice CT.

Fifty oocytes were studied with light microscope and electron microscope. The shape of oocyte is round, about 50—100?m in diameter. The nucleus is large and spheroidal in shape. The diameter of the nucleus is 15—20?m. All the oocytes are surrounded by zona pellucida and follicular cells. Call-Exner bodies are seen between these follicular cells. A great number of microvilli are present on the surface of oocytes. The paired membranes of nucleus envelope is clearly seen. There are a lot of nuclear pores on nuclear envelope, about 4,000/mm~2. The nuclear pore complex is disinct. The cytoplasm of oocyte abounds with organelles which are distributed regularly. The cristae of mitochondria are short and scarety. The mitochondrial matrix becomes very dense. The cavities of endoplasmic reticulum are distended. Well developed Golgi complex are usually found at the periphery of oocytes. Annulate lamellae consist of parallel flat sacs with a length of 1.5—2.0?m. There are structures like nuclear pores on the flat sac. Some bunchs of fibrous material in the cytoplasm of oocytes are called yolk plates Each yolk plate consists of a regular alternating dark and light bands with a periodicity of 20nm. Cortical granules are round with a diameter of 0.2—0.4?m. They are wrapped up in a membrane. Their electron density is high.

Objective To evaluate the effect of injection duration on bruising and pain after the subcutaneous injection of heparin.Methods The relevant randomized controlled trials,quasi-randomized controlled trials about subcutaneous heparin injection duration of ≥30 s and ≤ 10 s were searched in the databases of CNKI,CBM,VIP Database for Chinese Technical Periodicals,PubMed,Highwire,ScienceDirect,Chinese Cochrane Library,Wanfang database and Google.The quality of RCTs was assessed and Metaanalysis was conducted by RevMan 5.0 Software.Results Twelve RCTs involving 1 986 injections were included.The results of Meta-analysis showed that:There was significant difference between the two groups in the occurrence of bruising.The injection duration of 30 s was much better to prevent bruising.Statistical differences existed in pain intensity between the two groups.Conclusions Prolonging the injection duration to 30 s may reduce the occurrence of subcutaneous bruising.There is no enough evidence to draw a conclusion on pain intensity.Adequately,the current study is limited to a small sample,powered and high quality randomized controlled trials are still needed to be conducted.

Objective To study the pretreatment with prostaglandin E1 ( PGE1 ) on acute superior mesenteric ar-tery ( SMA) ischemia reperfusion injury of intestinal cell in rats. Methods 18 healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into control group, sham operation group and experimental group. IRI of SMA model was made by clamping the SMA for one hour and two hours after reperfusion in the control group and the experimental group,respectively. PGE1(20 μg/kg) was injected from the tail vein in the control group and the experimental group. Character of pa-thology of small intestine was examined. The expression of Bax and Bcl-2 in small intestine cells and change of IF-ABP and DAO in serum were detected. Results Pathologic changes showed that there was no change in the control group;while in the sham operation group,chorionic epithelium mucosa ulceration and hemorrhage and necrosis oc-curred more seriously than that in the experimental group. Expression of Bax and Bcl-2 was higher in the sham op-eration group and the experimental group than that in the control group(P<0. 05), and it was obviously lower in the experimental group than in the sham operation group(P<0. 05). The content of IFABP and DAO in blood ser-um:it was higher in the sham operation group and the experimental group than in the control group ( P<0. 05 ) , and it was lower in the experimental group than in the sham operation group(P<0. 05). Conclusion PGE1 can relieve the alvine necrosis caused by rats' mesenteric reperfusion injury after acute artery ischemia and thus protect damaged mucosa of small intestine.

Objective To evaluate the effect of different tube voltage and noise index (NI)on image quality and radiation dose during peripheral artery CTA with automatic tube current modulation(ATCM)technique.Methods Seventy-two patients were ran-domly divided into three groups with different scanning tube voltage and noise index as follows:group A with 100 kV and NI of 1 5, group B with 80 kV and NI of 1 5,group C with 100 kV and NI of 20.Image quality,segmental vascular enhancement,signal-to-noise ratio (SNR),contrast-to-noise (CNR)and effective dose (ED)were independently evaluated in 3 groups.The methods of sta-tistics analysis were ANOVA,and P <0.05 represented the significant difference.Results There was no significant difference of image quality of the peripheral artery among 3 groups.The CT value,SNR,CNR in group B (80 kV)was the highest,and there were statistical differences between A,B groups and B,C groups of arteries (P <0.05),and there was no satistiacal difference between A group and C group.Compared with group A and group B,the CTDlvol,DLP and ED of group C was reduced 50.45%,51.20%,51.21% and 35.03%,34.91%,34.92%,respectively,and the difference was statistical significance (P < 0.05 ),and there was no significant difference between group A and group B (P >0.05).Conclusion Using ATCM low-kV with high NI scanning can reduce radiation dose without interference on image quality for peripheral artery CTA.

Objective To explore the diagnostic methods, therapy and the prognostic factors for the ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (RAAA). Methods The clinical data of 23 patients (males 15, females 8, age range 35-78, mean age 65) with RAAA below the level of renal arteries, who were treated with surgery, were collected from April 1999 to December 2005 and were analyzed retrospectively. Seven cases had a history of RAAA, 6 cases had pulsating abdominal masses; 15 cases were diagnosed by emergency Doppler ultrasonic examination or CT. All of the patients underwent emergency surgical operation: The ruptures of the abdominal aorta below the level of renal arteries were obstructed by using clamp ring or using transluminal ballon according to conditions of each patient. The aritficial vascular graft was then taken after the control of hemorrhage. Results There were 9 (39%) patients died within 30 d after the emergency operation. The causes of death included acute renal failure because of hemorrhagic shock (4 cases), multiple organ failure (3 cases), and respiratory-circulatory failure (2 cases). Conclusion Surgery may be an effective treatment for RAAA. The critical step of the operation was to control hemorrhage by obstructing the proximal end of the aortic rupture according to the conditions of each patient. The main postoperative complications and causes of death include acute cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, renal failure and pneumonia.

Aim To study the inhibitory effect of anti-ErbB2 chimeric antibody chA21 on proliferation of human malignant breast cancer cell lines SKBR3 and explore its possible mechanisms through studying its effects on ErbB2 distribution and PI3K/Akt,Erk1/2 signal transduction.Methods The inhibitory effect of chA21 on SKBR3 was assessed by MTT assay.The effect of chA21 on distribution of ErbB2 on cell plasma membrane was determined by FACS(Fluorescence-activated cell sorting)analysis;p-Akt and p-Erk1/2 were detected by Western blot.Results The inhibitory rate of chA21 on SKBR3 cells in vitro increased in a dose and time dependent manner.Furthermore,it could down-regulate the distribution of ErbB2 on plasma membrane and decrease the activation of p-Akt and p-Erk1/2.Conclusions ChA21 can inhibit the proliferation of SKBR3 cell in vitro.Down-regulation ErbB2 on cell plasma membrane resulting in decreasing the activation of p-Akt and p-Erk1/2 may be one of the mechanisms of the inhibitory effect.

Objective To probe into the application of vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) in flap with slender narrow pedicle and to observe the survival,the shaping of blood vessel,congested edema and the expression of CD34 in the flap,and to analyze the underlying mechanism of VSD on the flap survival.Methods 64 SD rats were randomly divided into 8 groups:4-hour group,8-hour group,1-day group,2-day group,3-day group,4-day group,and 6-day group.A flap was designed and put on either side of a rat's back.The both width and length of the flap were 0.8 cm and the pedicle sized in the diameter of 3.5 cm.Both sides of the flaps on the rats' backs were randomly arranged into control side and experimental side.VSD was fixed sideways to each group after the shaping of flaps.Each of the equipments was dismantled respectively in the corresponding time after the operation.Afterwards the color and swelling degree of the flaps were observed,a sample was cut and the flap survival area was measured altogether on the 7th day.Flap histology and the expression of CD34 were observed mainly through HE dyeing and immunohistochemistry.The statistical data were treated to figure out the flap survival rate and to determine whether statistical differences existed in the microvessel density (MVD).Results As the time of the negative pressure suction went on,the survival area of the experimental side flap was increasing day by day and came to the maximum on the third day (95±4)％,but no statistical difference was discerned between on the third day and on the sixth day (P＞0.05).As the time of the negative pressure suction went on,the MVD in the flap was also increasing.Statistical differences (P＜0.05) existed between the experimental side of the instant group,4-hour group and the 8-hour group and those of 3-day group,4-day group,and 6-day group.Conclusions The application of VSD can advance the survival of the flap,whose survival area can reach its maximum within 3 days under application.Besides,it can promote the increase of MVD in the flap.

Objective To study the expression and regulation characteristics of aquaporin water channel(AQP) of cerebuller metastatic tumor and brain tissue surrounding tumor and to understand the role of abnormal expression of AQP in formation and elimination of brain edema.Methods The tumor tissue specimens from five lung adencarcinoma brain metastasis cases after surgical resection were accessed.The total RNA was extracted,and RT-PCR,immunohistochemical staining were progressed to study the expression and regulation characteristics of AQP.The average gray values of near and far regions from tumor tissue were measured with HPIAS-1000 cells measuring procedure to compare actual expression quantity of AQP.Results AQP4 had a high expression in the peritumoral brain tissue and no expression in the center of brain metastasis tumor organization.The AQP4 staining was junior in the more distant region from tumor and it added significantly in the region close to the tumor tissue.Stained AQP1 was not found in cerebullar metastatic tumor and peritumoral brain microvascular endothelial cells.Conclusion The expression of AQP4 is increased significantly in the region next to the cerebullar metastatic tumor tightly.It is probably related to the formation of peritumoral brain edema.The negative expression of AQP1 might not be conducive to the removal of edema in the interspace of nerve cells.
