Optical coherence tomography (OCT)is thought to be the most effective tool for recognizing form of vul-nerable plaques and evaluating endothelium coverage after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)so far.OCT can be used to guide stent implantation,evaluate endothelium proliferation status in stent,explore causes for in-stent restenosis and detect stent late malapposition and in-stent thrombosis etc.

10 mm)were showed by DSA.On nonenhanced CT,there were 3-4 low density nodules and 4 isodensity nodules.Thirty-two nodules was high density and 8 nodules was low density in arterial phase,33 and 7 nodules were low density and isodensity respectively in portal venous phase,39 and 1 nodule were low density and isodensity respectively in delayed phase.Conclusion The MSCT is excelled DSA in detection satellite nodule of HCC,especially smaller than 10 mm nodule.

Four alkaloids, berbamine, jatrorrhizine, palmatine, berberine present in different parts of sankezhen, a berberis plant in Gansu Province, were determined by HPLC

Objective To report the safety and efficacy of partial nephrectomy (PN) in 56 patients with renal tumors. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for 56 patients who were treated with PN.Patients were divided into two groups according to the occlusion time.The occlusion time for Group 1 was≤30 min in 28 cases,and Group 2＞30 min in 28 cases.All patients underwent pre-and post-operation 99Tcm-diethylenetriamine pentoacetic acid renal scintigraphy, to determine the renal glomerular filtration rate (GFR).The GFR values, amount of blood loss during operation,operative time,postoperative hospital stay and the complications rate were compared between the two groups prior to surgery and one week and six months post-surgery.All patients were followed-up.Results The average follow-up time was 36 (30-48) months.The overall survival rate and tumor recurrence-free survival rate were 100% and 98%.There was no significant difference between vessel clamp time≤30 min and＞30 min in the amount of intraoperative blood loss,operative time,postoperative hospital stay and complications rate,P values were 0.266,0.487,0.879 and 1.000.The preoperative and 1 week postoperative GFR values of the two groups were (42.9±4.9) and (34.2±4.9),(42.8±5.6) and (30.4±5.2) ml/min.The difference was significant(P=0.007).The GFR values were (41.2±4.3)ml/min at 6 months after surgery for Group 1,compared with that before surgery,but the difference was not significant (P＞0.05).While the GFR values were (38.1±5.0) ml/min for Group 2,and the GFR for Group 2 did not recover to the preoperative level (P=0.001). Conelusions PN for renal tumors could be a safe and effective treatment option.The damage on renal function could be minimal when the renal artery clamping time is controlled to within 30 min.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in interventional diagnosis and treatment of borderline coronary artery disease. Methods Sixteen 40%-70% angiographically stenotic lesions from 15 patients were enrolled in the current study. Intravascular OCT was applied to each lesion after informed consent was obtained to evaluate stenosis percentage, size of lipid core, thickness of fibrous cap, existence of plaque rupture, and presence of thrombosis or calcification. Therapeutic strategies were made according to OCT outcomes as well as clinical symptoms and electrocardiographic changes. Stent coverage, apposition, and tissue prolapse between stent struts were determined in the patients undertaken percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). Results Qualitative OCT images were obtained in 14 lesions. Ten lesions were greater than 50% stenosis, with large lipid core and fibrous cap thinner than 65 ?m, and plaque ruptures were noted in 2 of the lesions. PCI were performed in these 10 lesions. Two lesions underwent predilatation and significant intima tearings and dissections were detected with OCT. Repeated OCT after stent implantation showed complete coverage in all 10 lesions. Focal incomplete apposition were noted in 2 lesions. Significant tissue prolapse occurred in 3 lesions and segmental incomplete deployment of stent in 2 lesions. The remaining 4 lesions had small lipid cores, thick fibrous caps but with no plaque ruptures, thus PCI was not performed. Conclusion Intracoronary OCT is an effective tool to determine features of coronary lesions. It plays an important role in diagnosis of vulnerable lesions, strategy-making in treating borderline coronary artery disease and evaluation of immediate result of PCI.

Assessment of left ventricular function is an important part of the function of whole cardiac.Two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging technology can track single pixel and get its trajectory,thus we can fully knowledge the function of left ventricular.At present,a large number of clinical studies have confirmed the significance of two-speckle tracking imaging in the evaluation of left ventricular function,and the details were reviewed in this article.

Laboratory animal welfare is an important guarantee for the accuracy and reliability of experimental results, so it has been paid attention in scientific research .But the situation is not optimistic in the teaching practice .This paper has specially analyzed laboratory animal welfare and ethics in experiment teaching and provided specific measures involved in legislation , spread of animal welfare and implementation of 3R principle to ensure animal welfare .

Objective To explore the value of CR in the diagnosis of breast cancer in young women.Methods The relationshipbetween X-ray features of 50 cases of breast cancer in young women and pathology were analysed retrospectively.Results Infiltratinglobular carcinoma was in 26 cases,and infiltrating ductal carcinoma was in 24 cases.Mass shadows was in 13 cases,pure calcification 7cases,structure disorder 5 cases,patches shadows 16 cases,patches shadows with calcification 4 cases and mass with calcification 5 cases.Conclusion Mammography is still the best method for breast cancer in young women.

RNA interference mediated by short interfering RNA is widely used to study functional genes and also being developed for therapeutic applications. However, recent study demonstrated that siRNA might activate innate immune system and induce huge production of inflammatory cytokines in mammals, and also randomly inhibit expression of undesired genes. Designing highly effective siRNAs or modifying the siRNA to retain or enhance the silence efficiency and meanwhile abolish the off-target effects associated with immunostimulation then become the key techniques in application of siRNAs as safe and effective therapeutic agents.

Objective To probe the X-ray imaging features and clinical manifestations of some rare diseases in male breast.Methods The data of 12 patients with some rare diseases in male breast were collected.The X-ray manifestations and clinical features of the diseases were analyzed.Results The postoperative pathology showed the lipogranuloma in 1 patient,plasma cell mastitis in 2,secondary infection of epidermal cyst in 1,intraductal papilloma in 1,breast cancer in 6 (invasive ductal carcinoma in 4,poor-differentiated adenocarcinoma in 1,and mucinous carcinoma in 1),and breast lymphoma in 1.The digital mammography showed the intramammary solitary masses in 1 1 and multiple ones in 1.10 masses were located at the rear of the areola,and other 2 were opposite.Unclear edge of the lesion was found in 9,spiculation in 1,lobulation in 1,and micro-calcification in 1.Nipple retraction and areola skin thickening in 10 and enlarged axillary lymph node in 1 were also found.The total accurate rate of X-ray diagnosis was 41% (5/12),while that of breast cancer was 83.3%.The total misdiagnosis rate was 59% (7/12),and that of benign lesion was 80% (4/5).Conclusion The diseases in male breast are rare and various,and the X-ray and clinical manifestations are not specific.
