		                        			Objective:To investigate clinical significance and related factors of magnetic resonance hyperintense vessel sign (HVS).Methods:The clinical data and related imaging parameters of 109 patients with acute anterior circulation occlusion cerebral infarction, who admitted to Northern Theater Command General Hospital of People′s Liberation Army from April 2017 to August 2019, were analyzed retrospectively. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations including fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR), diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and three dimensional time of flight magnetic resonance angiography (3D TOF MRA) sequences within 24 hours of onset were performed. According to the distribution range of HVS in FLAIR sequence, the patients were divided into four grades (0, 1, 2 and 3), grades 0 and 1 belonging to HVS low grade group, and grades 2 and 3 HVS high grade group. Univariate and multivariate analyses were made to explore related factors of HVS. Fifty-two patients who completed baseline CT within six hours of onset before MRI examination were performed CT-Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (CT-ASPECTS) and DWI-Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (DWI-ASPECTS).The difference between CT-ASPECTS and DWI-ASPECTS was calculated. When the difference of ASPECTS ≤1, they were categorized as ASPECTS unchanged group (AN group); when the difference of ASPECTS>1, they were categorized as ASPECTS changed group (AY group). These two groups were compared to explore whether there was any difference in HVS grade, and Spearman correlation analysis was performed to investigate the relationship between HVS grade and the difference of ASPECTS.Results:The difference of hyperlipidemia, TOAST classification (large artery atherosclerosis (LAA), other etiology (SOE) or undetermined etiology (SUE)) and Willis circle classification (types Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ) between HVS groups were remarkable (58.6% (34/58) vs 37.3% (19/51), χ2=4.959, P=0.026; 23/5/23 vs 43/1/14, P=0.004; 3/14/12/22 vs 7/29/14/8, χ2=13.124, P=0.004). Other clinical factors and the locations of vessel occlusion did not show significant difference ( P>0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that LAA in TOAST classification (LAA vs SOE or SUE, OR=3.054, 95% CI1.257-7.422, P=0.014), Willis circle type Ⅰ (type Ⅰ vs type Ⅳ, OR=5.494, 95% CI1.074-28.091, P=0.041), and type Ⅱ (type Ⅱ vs type Ⅳ, OR=5.571, 95% CI1.895-16.372, P=0.002) were independent related factors to stimulate wide distribution of HVS. The grades of HVS were significantly different between the AN group and the AY group (1/15 vs18/18, χ2=9.114, P=0.002). Spearman correlation analysis showed that HVS grade was negatively correlated with the difference of ASPECTS ( r=-0.573, P<0.001). Conclusions:Both TOAST and Willis circle classifications are crucial factors affecting HVS distribution. HVS distribution range reflects the status of collateral compensatory. Recognizing HVS may help to evaluate the progress of early cerebral infarction volume.

		                        			Objective To evaluate the opening level and optimal time window of the blood-brain barrier induced by adenosine A2 receptor agonist ( Lexiscan) via dynamic enhanced MRI. Methods Twen-ty New Zealand white rabbits were divided into experiment group ( group A, n=10) and control group ( group B, n=10) . Rabbits in group A were injected with Lexiscan and rabbits in group B were injected with physiological salt via ear vein, then the coronary scanning was performed. Contrast enhanced MRI was performed at different time points ( 5, 10, 15, 20 min, and then every 10 min, until 2 h) following the in-fusion of Gd-diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA). The signal intensity (SI) of region of interest ( ROI) was measured and the percent enhancement of SI was calculated. Evens blue staining results in brain tissues were observed. Pair t test was used to analyze the data. Results The percent enhancement of SI in group A significantly increased to (40. 93±3.70)% at 5 min, reached the maximum of (43.03±3.62)% at 30 min, slowly decreased until 50 min, and got to a stable level at almost 80 min. At each time point, the per-cent enhancement of SI in group A was significantly higher than that in group B ( t values:6.88-20.28, all P<0. 05) . The staining was evident in group A. Conclusions Lexiscan can open blood-brain barrier tem-porarily and reversibly, and the optimal opening time window is 10-50 min post-injection.
