Objective To study the value of time intensity curve of contrast enhanced ultrasound in the discrimination of benign and malignant soft tissue tumors. Methods Thirty-seven cases of soft tissue tumors were carried out contrast-enhanced ultrasound examination. The region of interest in the dynamic images were chosen to carry out Gamma-Variate curve fitting through Q-LAB software and made a quantitative analysis. Then they were compared with pathological diagnosis to analyze the ultrasound imaging performance of benign and malignant tumors and their characteristics of micro-irrigation. Results Thirty-seven cases of soft tissue tumors were pathologically diagnosed 21 cases of benign and malignant in 16 cases. The perfusion of benign tumors were mainly uniformity (19/21) or potentialization (2/21). The perfusion of malignant tumors were mainly uniformity (10/16) or nonuniformity (6/16). There were no significant differences in time to peak(TTP) and arrival time of contrast agent(AT) between benign and malignant tumors( P ＞0.05). The upslope rate(A) and the derived peak intensity(DPI) in benign group were significantly less than malignant group ( P ＜0.05). Conclusions Time-intensity curve analysis of contrast-enhanced ultrasound showed that benign and malignant soft tissue tumors were different in perfusion,and it will be of a certain value for the clinical differential diagnosis.

AIM: To study the expression of hepatitis B virus core gene in Pichia pastoris and to obtain high-level expressed recombinant HBcAg with good immunoreactivity and high specificity. METHODS: HBV core gene was amplified by PCR from plasmid pHBV1 which contained HBV whole DNA sequence. The PCR product was cloned into pGEM-T vector by TA cloning strategy. After confirmed by DNA sequence analysis, the gene of interest was inserted into the yeast expression vector pPIC9. The recombinant plasmid pPIC9-cAg was constructed and transformed into GS115 by electroporation. The recombinant yeast GS115 was induced by 0.5% methanol. The expressed product was analysed by SDS-PAGE,Western blot and ELISA. RESULTS: The restriction analysis and DNA sequence analysis proved that HBV core gene had already been cloned to yeast expression plasmid pPIC9. The expressed HBcAg existed in SDS-PAGE. Good immunoreactivity and high specificity of the recombinant HBcAg have been proved by ELISA and Western blot. The titre of the recombinant HBcAg in the cell lysate was 1∶ 12 800 . CONCLUSION: The recombinant plasmid pPIC9-cAg was successfully constructed. The recombinant HBcAg with good immunoreactivity and high specificity was successfully expressed in Pichia pastoris expression system and can be applied to further developing HBcAb immunoassay. [

Objective To investigate the effects of sustained inflation (SI) combined with small tidal volume ventilation on lung recruitment and hemodynamics in patients with acute lung injury (ALI). Methods Patients with severe trauma followed by ALI were selected for this study. Patients underwent small tidal volume ventilation (baseline) for 1 h and then SI with 20 cm H 2O?30 s(SI 1), 30 cm H 2O?30 s(SI 2), 40 cm H 2O?30 s(SI 3) and 50 cm H 2O?30 s(SI 4) for 1 h, respectively. Parameters of pulmonary mechanics and hemodynamics were measured at 1 h after baseline, SI and returning baseline, respectively. Results Compared with those of the baseline, no changes of parameters were found after SI 1 and SI 2, but EELV and Cst increased significantly after SI 3 and SI 4. Paw, PAP and PVRI decreased significantly after SI 3 and SI 4. After SI interruption, all the physiological variables returned to baseline. SI had no significant effect on HR, AP and CI. Conclusion Treatment with SI combined with small tidal volume ventilation in patients with ALI can provide lung recruitment and improve lung compliance, but it has no significant side effect on hemodynamics.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors of pain and the changes of vital signs in newborn infants. Methods Forty two newborn infants were rated by the behavioral scale of acute pain in newborn infants. The scores of pain were compared among infants with different gender,gestational age,birth weight,birth age,type of puncture and whether by vaginal birth or not. At the same time,the respiration rate,heart rate,blood pressure and oxygen saturation (SO2)were dynami-cally recorded by the multi-function monitor in the process of puncture. Results The average score of pain was 7.6. There was no significant difference among newborn infants with different gender,gestational age,birth weight and type of puncture(P> 0.05),while significant differences among infants with different birth age and whether by vaginal birth or not (P=0.015 and 0.043 respectively). In the process of puncture,the SO2 was significantly decreased,while the respiration rate,heart rate,sys-tolic and diastolic blood pressure were significantly increased. Conclusions Pain is prevalent in newborn infants and accom-panied by obvious changes of vital signs. The means of childbirth and birth age have significant influence on the neonatal pain. It is suggested to pay close attention to the neonatal pain and take effective interventions.

Objective To analyze the normal reference values of left ventricular longitudinal peak systolic strain (LS) and strain rate (LSr) by two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (2D-STI) in healthy children at different ages.Methods Clinical ultrasound data of 330 healthy children who taking physical examination in our hospital from September 2015 to November 2016 were collected and retrospectively.They were divided into 7 groups according to their ages,that is,neonate group (0 to 28 days old),infant group (28 days to 1 year old),toddle group (1 to 3 years old),pre-school group (3 to 6 years old),school age group (6 to 9 years old),pre-adolescence group (9 to 13 years old) and adolescence group (13 to 18 years old).2D-STI was performed in the 3 apical projections of left ventricle (LV).The regional peak systolic longitudinal strain and strain rate of LV were measured.Results ① Significant differences were found in the LS and LSr values from 6 segments of the same wall (P ＜ 0.05),and the LS and LSr values were gradually increased from basal segment to apical segment.②There were no significant differences in the LS,LSr and global LS (GLS) values of 18 segments between sexes (P ＞ 0.05).③ Except the basal segments of posterior wall,inferior wall and posterior septum,LS value was gradually elevated with the increase of age (LS ＜LSinfant ＜ LStoddler,pre-shool and school age ＜ LSpre-adolescence and adolescence),So was GLS value.④LS in 18 segments had a positive correlation with age,and the value of apical segment in lateral wall was most remarkably correlated (r =0.551,P ＜0.01);Regional LS had a negative correlation with heart rate,and that of middle segment in lateral wall was the most apparent (r =-0.625,P ＜ 0.01);GLS was positively influenced by age (r =0.665,P ＜ 0.01) and negatively affected by heart rate (r =-0.625,P ＜ 0.01).⑤The heterogeneities were found in the correlations of regional LSr with age and heart rate in segments and in the LSr among different age groups.Conclusion Normal reference values of LV peak LS and LSr are established for healthy children at different ages,and they possess their own characteristics.
