Objective:To evaluate the effects of magnetic attachment keepers on MRI images.Me-thods:In in vitro part,keepers of MAGFIT EX 400,MAGFIT EX 600 and MAGNEDISC 800 magnetic attachment systems were cast into standard root-caps with different alloy respectively,including nickel-chromium alloy and gold-palladium alloy,or not be cast for contrast.In in vivo part,volunteers with keepers in different position and amount were included.All the specimens and volunteers were imaged by a Siemens SONATA 1.5-T MRI scanner.Extent of the artifacts in every slice was measured.The magnitude of the artifacts and the distortion of the anatomic structures were compared.Results:All kinds of keepers being studied produced obvious MRI artifacts.The extent of MRI artifacts induced by MAGFIT EX 400 keepers,MAGFIT EX 600 keepers and MAGNEDISC 800 keepers are 158.94 mm,168.52 mm and 173.00 mm,respectively.The images of mental region,tongue,palate,jawbone and sinus were evidently obscured by artifacts in all cases.When keeper was put in the molar region,the keeper-related MRI artifact may obscure the imaging of brain,spinal cord.SE sequence with right-left frequency-encoding direction was more desirable in MRI for the patients with magnetic attachment keepers.Conclusion:Keepers of magnetic attachment system did induce obvious artifacts in MRI examination.

Flagellum is a slender and wavy protein-attached filament on the surface of certain bacterial cells. It not only plays an important role in the movement and pathogenic ability of bacteria, but also participates in a variety of host immune regulation. Flagellin is a structural protein that forms the main part of flagellar filaments and can be recognized by TLR5 and other receptors in the host cell to induce the body′s immune response. At present, flagellin is widely used in the research of new immune adjuvants due to its immune activation, and its inflammation inhibitory effect also has good prospects against immune pathological damage. In this review, we summarized and analyzed the recent progress on the basic structure and function of flagellin, the host recognition mechanism, and its role in regulating the host immune system.

This article presents the design of a treadmill of comprehensive training experiment for rats. The treadmill is composed of six tracks and two of them were designed as conventional plane, two were designed to swing right and left, and two were designed to swing back and forth. The power was provided by six motors. The MSP430F149 is used as core to adjust the swing rate and the grade of electric shock. The IAR for MSP430 is used to design the software. The speed of the six tracks could be adjusted between 0 and 30 m/min. The swing tracks of back and forth can be swung for 3-25 times per minute and the swing tracks of right and left for 3-32 times. The electric shock can be divided into three levels, i. e. strong, middle, and weak level for each track. The digital comprehensive training treadmill can meet different training needs, and provide experimental data for mechanism research of some related diseases.
