Objective To evaluate hepatic enhancement technology with MRI and its clinical application.Methods 147 patients underwent enhanced MRI scanning and an automatic injector.Total dose of contrast agent for each patient was 10 to 15ml(0.2mmol/kg)at a rate of 2ml/s,Two-phase enhancement were performed at a delay of 30 and 70 seconds respectively after the initiation of bolus injection.Results Good visualization of two phases for both hepatic artery and portal vein were achieved in 147 patients in addition to branches of abdominal aorta,hepatic artery,splenic artery,portal vein,inferior vena cava and vasculatures in hepatic port.The 4 patients did not have ideal two-phase images for various reasons.Conclusion MRI with bolus injection using an automatic injector can satisfy the diagnosis for hepatic diseases.

Objective To analyze dynamic features of TCM syndrome elements according to the neuropsychological characteristics of cognitive function impairment after ischemic stroke.Methods The hospitalized cerebral infarction patients without dementia were evaluated dynamically with the mini-mental state examination (MMSE) and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) (Beijing Version) after IQCODE screens at different phase points.And they were divided into groups according to the severity of cognitive function impairment.The occurring frequency of TCM syndrome elements at all phase points for diagnosis was compared.Results The phase points and TCM syndrome elements closely related with the cognitive function impairment after ischemic stroke were as following:the 3rd day with fire and yin deficiency,the 7th day with yin deficiency,the 1st month with fire,phlegm,and blood stasis,and the 3rd month with fire,phlegm,blood stasis,qi deficiency,and yin deficiency.Conclusion The neuropsychological characteristics of cognitive function impairment of ischemic stroke are closely related with TCM syndrome elements and their evolvement as well as their different combinations.

Objective To observe the MRI findings of limb gunshot wound and investigate their pathomorphological basis through animal models.Methods Sixteen mongrel dogs were divided into four groups randomly. The hind legs of dogs shot with handgun were undergone 0.5 T MRI scans at 5 h, 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h after wounded, respectively. The gross changes, HE staining light microscopic findings and MRI findings of wounds were observed.Results Permanent tract was a zone of tissue defect. In the tract, blood of 5 h group′s and pus of 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h groups showed T 1WI hypointense signal and T 2WI hyperintense signal. In contusion zone, the main pathological change was homogeneous coagulating necrosis of muscle fibers. MRI images showed irregular line, dot, or block T 1WI isointense signal, T 2WI hypointense signal, and no enhanced after Gd-DTPA injected in all groups. In concussion zone, the main pathological changes of 5 h group were edema, degeneration, and lysis of cells and lots of erythrocytes in the tissue interspace. Besides these, a large quantity of leucocytes and pus cells appeared, the lysis of degenerated cells near the contusion zone and the edema of such area, with passage of time, were more obviously in groups 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h. In MRI, concussion zone showed slightly hypointense T 1WI signal, hyperintense T 2WI, signal and T 2WI signal got higher and the adjacent contusion zone got clearer with time pass. Concussion zone could be enhanced obviously.Conclusion MRI can reflect the lesion of tissue in limb gunshot wound accurately during seventy-two hours after wound. The T 2WI and contrast-enhanced T 1WI are valuable. The special tissue-defect area, coagulating necrosis of cells, and large range injury of blood vessels and cells are the important pathomorphological basis which cause the MRI findings of gunshot wound different from normal trauma.

Objective To observe the efficacy of hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy(HAIC)combined with lenvatinib for treating Barcelona clinic liver cancer(BCLC)stage B or C hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC),and to explore the impact factors of patients'survival time.Methods Data of 104 patients with BCLC stage B or C HCC were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into observation group(n=46,underwent HAIC combined with lenvatinib)and control group(n=58,underwent HAIC alone).The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of treatments,as well as patients'overall survival(OS)and progression free survival(PFS)were recorded and compared between groups.Cox regressions were used to explore the impact factors of patients'survival time.Results Three months and 6 months after HAIC,the results of modified response evaluation criteria in solid tumors(mRECIST)in observation group were both better than those in control group(both P＜0.05),while no significant difference was found between groups one year after HAIC(P＞0.05).The overall survival rate in observation group was higher than that in control group(P＜0.05),while there was no significant difference of progression free survival rate between groups(P＞0.05).The incidence of rash in observation group was higher than that in control group(P＜0.05).Multiple Cox regression showed prolonged OS in HCC patients in observation group(hazard ratio[HR]=0.425,95%CI[0.255,0.791])compared with that in control group.Compared with pre-treatment Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group(ECOG)score 1,AFP≥400 μg/ml,the number of tumor foci≥3 and BCLC stage C,pre-treatment ECOG score 0,AFP＜400 μg/ml,the number of tumor foci≤2 and BCLC stage B were all independent protective factors of OS in HCC patients(all P＜0.05).Conclusion HAIC combined with lenvatinib was safe and effective for treating BCLC stage B or C HCC.Pre-treatment ECOG score,serum AFP level,the number of tumor foci and BCLC stage were all independent impact factors of OS.

Objective:To explore the effect of moderate intensity physical exercise on depression, anxiety and cognitive function of schizophrenic patients and its possible biochemical mechanism.Methods:Totally 148 patients with schizophrenia who were hospitalized in hospital from March 2019 to March 2021 were randomly divided into control group ( n=75) and exercise group ( n=73). The patients of the two groups were given drug treatment and routine exercise according to clinical practice, and the patients in exercise group were given additional medium-intensity physical exercise.Self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) were used to evaluate the poor mental state of the subjects.The verbal fluency task(VFT), digital span test(DST), trail making test-A(TMT-A) and the positive and negative symptom scale (PANSS) were used to evaluate cognitive function.The levels of endocannabinoids (eCBs) receptors were detected by high performance liquid chromatography, and the levels of monoamine neurotransmitters and eCBs in the patients' serum were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). SPSS 19.0 software was used for statistical analysis.The measurement data between the two groups were compared by t-test and the counting data between the two groups were compared by χ2 test. Results:(1) After effective intervention, the scores of SAS, SDS, TMT-A and PANSS of the two groups were significantly lower than those before intervention, and the difference before and after intervention between the two groups was statistically significant( t=6.00, 6.52, 25.79, 17.03, all P<0.01). The scores of SAS, SDS, TMT-A and PANSS after intervention in the exercise group were significantly lower than those in the control group( t=4.66, 20.88, 6.61, 8.95; all P<0.01). The number of VFT and DST in the two groups after intervention were significantly higher than those before intervention, and the differences before and after intervention between the two groups were statistically significant( t=13.78, 22.76, both P<0.01). After effective intervention, the number of VFT and DST in exercise group were significantly higher than those in the control group( t=5.02, 5.15, both P<0.01). (2) After effective intervention, the contents of monoamine neurotransmitters and eCBs in serum of the two groups were significantly higher than those before intervention, and HVA level ((63.68±6.99) pg/mL), MHPG level ((175.90±16.22) pg/mL), 5-HIAA level ((29.94±4.19) pg/mL) and CBR1 level ((6.70±1.40)μg/L), 2-AG level ((61.90±5.73)pmol/g) and AEA level ((76.48±6.59) pmol/g) in exercise group were significantly higher than those in the control group ((52.97±5.37)pg/mL, (138.50±11.52)pg/mL, (23.87±3.15)pg/mL, (5.71±1.29)μg/L, (52.13±5.14)pmol/g, (67.66±5.88)pmol/g)( t=10.43, 16.21, 10.91, 8.65, all P<0.01). Conclusion:Moderate intensity physical exercise can significantly improve their depression, anxiety and cognitive function, which may be related to regulating the levels of ECBS and their receptors in patients with chronic schizophrenia to increase monoamine neurotransmitters.
