Objective To investigate the value of multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) in diagnosis of colorectal carcinoma. Methods MSCT images of 42 cases of colorectal carcinoma proved by surgery and pathology were retrospectively analyzed. Multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) in all cases, and curved planar reconstruction (CPR), shaded surface display (SSD), CT virtual colonoscopy (CTVC) and Raysum were performed in some of the cases. MSCT findings were analyzed in comparison with operative and pathologic features. Results The detecting rate and quatitative rate of colorectal carcinomas with MSCT were 100%,respectively.The accurate rates were 82.9%(29/35) and 100%(7/7) in detection of invasion of surrounding structures and metastasis in abdominal organs respectively,the sensitivity and specificity for detetion of lymph node metastasis were 71%(22/31) and 100% with MSCT imaging.Conclusion MSCT scan with multiform reconstruction techniques can make definite diagnosis of colorectal carcinoma, which is helpful for treatment plan.

Objectives:To investigate the safety,feasibility and clinical effects of early EN(EEN) in postoperative patients with esophageal cancer. Methods:On the first postoperative day,40 patients were randomly divided into EEN group and TEN group(traditional enteral nutrition group), 20 patients per group.A series of parameters including plasma protein and lymphocyte count were tested before and after nutritional therapy.The complications,vital signs and resumption of gastrointestinal functions were carefully observed and recorded simultaneously. Results:Neither mortality nor serious morbidity occurred in all patients during the period of study.The concentrations of serum prealbumin and transferrin were significantly elevated after nutritional support in EEN group.The lymphocyte count was also higher in EEN group.The bowel movement resumed significantly earlier in EEN group than in TEN group. Conclusions:Postoperative EEN for esophageal cancer is safe and feasible,not only improving nutritional status and maintaining gastrointestinal function,but also ameliorating immunological function.

Objective To investigate the altered expression of muscarinic receptor 2 (M_2 receptor) in the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) of Parkinson's disease (PD) model rat by immunocytochemical technique and explore the role of M_2 receptor in etiopathogenesis and pathophysiological changes of PD. Methods Sixteen healthy SD rats were divided randomly into two groups. Rat monoclonal antibody against the M_2 receptor was used. Then we used positive cell counting and optical density as indicators to analyze the altered expression of M_2 receptor in PPN of PD model rats. Results The counting of M_2 receptor positive cells in the PPN was not obviously changed in normal rats and the unlesioned side of PD rats (P>0.05), whereas a significant decrease was observed when compared to that in normal rats and the lesioned side of PD rats, respectively (P<0.05). However, the positive intensity in the three groups did not differ significantly. Conclusion The results indicate that there was a degenerative death or receptor loss of M_2 receptor positive cells in the lesioned PPN of PD rats. The expression intensity of M_2 receptor positive cells without degenrative death or receptor loss was not affected. It was also found that the factor affecting the change of M_2 receptor positive cells in the PPN involved only one side.

Evaluating the consistency of herb injectable formulations could improve their product quality and clinical safety, particularly concerning the composition and content levels of trace ingredients. Panax notoginseng Saponins Injection (PNSI), widely used in China for treating acute cardiovascular diseases, contains low-abundance (10%-25%) and trace saponins in addition to its five main constituents (notoginsenoside R1, ginsenoside Rg1, ginsenoside Re, ginsenoside Rb1, and ginsenoside Rd). This study aimed to establish a robust analytical method and assess the variability in trace saponin levels within PNSI from different vendors and formulation types. To achieve this, a liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method employing multiple ions monitoring (MIM) was developed. A "post-column valve switching" strategy was implemented to eliminate highly abundant peaks (NR1, Rg1, and Re) at 26 min. A total of 51 saponins in PNSI were quantified or relatively quantified using 18 saponin standards, with digoxin as the internal standard. This study evaluated 119 batches of PNSI from seven vendors, revealing significant variability in trace saponin levels among different vendors and formulation types. These findings highlight the importance of consistent content in low-abundance and trace saponins to ensure product control and clinical safety. Standardization of these ingredients is crucial for maintaining the quality and effectiveness of PNSI in treating acute cardiovascular diseases.
