Objective To establish a polarographic method for detecting fluoroacetamide.Methods On the condition of strong basic solution with high temperature fluoroacetamide was decomposed to form a decomposed product ALC-La-F - complex.In a pH4.90buffer solution containing KNO 3 and hexamethylenetetramine,the decomposed product was determined with com-plex-adsorptive wave at-0.67V by polarography.Re sults The detection limit and linear range of the method was2.0?10 -8 mol/L and5.0?10 -8 -1.2?10 -6 mol/L respectively.The regressive equation was y=3.49x+0.042with a correlation coefficient r=0.9996.The method had been applied to the determination of fluoroacetamide in wheat flour samples satisfyingly.Conclu-sion This method was simple and suitable for the determination of fluoroacetamide in flour.

Objective:To investigate the value of ADC map-based radiomics model for identifying the ischemic penumbra (IP) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Methods:From January 2014 to October 2019, data of 241 patients with AIS involving the anterior cerebral circulation within 24 h after stroke onset in the First People′s Hospital of Nantong City was analyzed retrospectively. All patients received routine T 1WI, T 2WI, DWI and dynamic susceptibility contrast-perfusion weighted imaging (DSC-PWI). Considering the PWI-DWI mismatch model as the gold standard for determining IP, patients were divided into the PWI-DWI mismatch (84 cases) and PWI-DWI non-mismatch (157 cases) groups. The ROI of the low signal area and the surrounding area was drawn by two doctors at the maximum level of the lesions on the ADC maps. Then the images were imported into AK analysis software to extract the features. Firstly, the inter-class correlation coefficient was used to screen out the features with high consistency, then the maximum relevance and minimum redundancy (mRMR) and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (Lasso) regression analysis were used to screen the features. The selected features were used to construct their own radiomics model. ROC curve was used to evaluate the performance of the models, and Delong test was used to compare the area under the curve (AUC) of the two models. Results:After screening, 12 features (LongRunLowGreyLevelEmphasis_angle135_offset7, LongRunLowGreyLevelEmphasis_AllDirection_offset7, GLCMEntropy_AllDirection_offset4_SD, GLCMEnergy_angle45_offset1, ColGE_W11B25_16, ColGE_W11B25_24, HaraEntropy, SurfaceVolumeRatio, Sphericity, Quantile0.025, uniformity and Percentile75) were used to construct the radiomics model based on the low signal area of the ADC map. The area under the ROC curve in the training set was 0.900, and the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 84.5%, 81.4% and 83.4%, respectively. The area under the ROC curve in the validation set was 0.870, and the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 80.9%, 84.0% and 81.9%, respectively. Eleven features(RunLengthNonuniformity_AllDirection_offset1_SD, ShortRunLowGreyLevelEmphasis_angle45_offset1, HighGreyLevelRunEmphasis_AllDirection_offset1_SD, ShortRunLowGreyLevelEmphasis_AllDirection_offset7, HaralickCorrelation_AllDirection_offset4_SD, ClusterShade_angle45_offset7, InverseDifferenceMoment_AllDirection_offset7_SD, ColGE_W3B20_0, sumAverage, SurfaceVolumeRatio and VolumeMM) were used to construct the radiomics model based on the surrounding area of ADC map. The area under ROC curve in training set was 0.820, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 80.5%, 80.2% and 80.4%, respectively; the area under ROC curve in validation set was 0.800, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 78.7%, 80.0% and 79.2%, respectively. The AUC of the radiomics model based on the low signal area of the ADC map was larger than that based on the surrounding area of the ADC map (training set: Z=3.017, P=0.003; validation set: Z=0.604, P=0.002). Conclusion:The radiomics model based on ADC map has a good diagnostic efficacyin identifying the IP.

Objective To investigate the characteristic MRI appearance of neuromyelitis optics (NMO) and muhip]e sclerosis (MS) in the spinal cord.Methods Twenty cases of MS and 23 cases of NMO were examined by MRL All image appearances were analyzed.Results The characteristic MRI appearance of NMO patients in the spinal cord was linear medullary lesion (LML), linear medullospinal lesion (LMSL), linear spinal lesion (LSL) and longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis (LETM), and spinal cord MRI with contiguous T2-weighted signal abnormality extending over 3 or more vertebral segments (23 cases), while in MS, spinal cord MRI with contiguous T2-weighted signal abnormality often extended less than 3 vertebral segments (only 12 cases, χ2 = 19.142, P < 0.01), and the distribution of spinal lesion usually was eccentric (17 cases, compared with NMO group, χ2 = 25.256, P < 0.01).Conclusions NMO is distinct from MS.In MRI, spinal lesion in NMO usually conforms to the distribution of aquaporin 4, while spinal lesion in MS always conforms to the demyelination.NMO has neuroimaging features that move it ever closer to distinct disease status.

This study aimed at the molecular mechanism of Cordyceps sinensis polysaccharide-A(CPS-A) on angiotensin (Ang Ⅱ)-induced injury of L02 cells.The effect of AngⅡ and CPS-A on the proliferation of L02 cells was analyzed by MTT assay.PCR,Real-Time PCR and Western blot were also employed to determine the expression of IL-1β,AT1R,AT2R,NF-κB p65,TNFα and other inflammatory factors at mRNA and protein levels.The results showed that Ang Ⅱ and CPS-A could inhibit the proliferation of L02 cells by 1 × 10-5 mol/L and 200 μg/ mL,respectively.PCR,Real-Time PCR and Western blot showed that CPS-A could significantly down-regulate IL-1 β,TNF-α,NF-κB and AT1R.CPS-A has a good protective effect on AngⅡ-induced L02 cell injury.

Femoral neck fracture (FNF) in the elderly patients is currently a major health challenge worldwide, with excessive consumption of medical resources, high incidence of complications as well as suboptimal outcome and prognosis. Hip joint arthroplasty (HJA) has been the mainstream treatment for FNF in the elderly, but the conventional surgical approaches and techniques are still confronted with a series of bottlenecks such as dislocation, limp and limb length discrepancy. In recent years, direct anterior approach (DAA) for HJA (DAA-HJA) has been a major new choice in the field of joint replacement, which achieves improved clinical effectiveness of HJA in the treatment of elderly FNF, due to the fact that DAA approach involves the neuromuscular interface and accords with the idea of soft tissue retention and enhanced recovery after surgery. However, there is still a lack of unified understanding of standard technique and procedure of DAA-HJA in the treatment of elderly FNF. Therefore, relevant experts from the Hip Joint Group of Chinese Orthopedics Association of Chinese Medical Association, Youth Arthrology Group of Orthopedic Committee of PLA, Orthopedic Committee of Chongqing Medical Association, Branch of Orthopedic Surgeons of Chongqing Medical Doctor Association and Sport Medicine Committee of Chongqing Medical Association were organized to formulate the " Chinese expert consensus on the technical standard of direct anterior hip arthroplasty for elderly femoral neck fracture ( version 2023)" based on evidence-based medicine. This consensus mainly proposed 13 recommendations covering indications, surgical plans, prosthesis selections, surgical techniques and processes, and postoperative management of DAA-HJA in elderly patients with FNF, aiming to promote standardized, systematic and patient-specific diagnosis and treatment to improve the functional prognosis of the patients.
