Objective To investigate MRI features of cystic oligodendrocytoma.Methods MRI features of 10 patients with oligodendroglial tumors proved with operation and pathology were analyzed retrospectively.Results Among 10 patients,lesionslocated on the supratentorium in 8 patients,while on the cerebellar vermis in 2 patients.Solitary lesion was found in 9 cases,and multiple lesions were found in 1 case.Complete cystic lesions were observed in 4 cases,large cystic lesions with solid nodules were found in 3 cases,and multi-cystic lesions were found in 3 cases.Smooth cyst wall of lesions were found in 7 cases,locally depressed and rough wall were found in 3 cases.Calcifications were found in 3 cases.Mild peritumoral edema was found in 9 cases,moderate to severe edema was found in 1 case.The lesions significantly enhanced in 3 cases,ring enhanced in 3 cases,and locally enhanced in 1 case.Conclusion COD is difficult to diagnose,but has certain MRI characteristics.COD should be considered when supratentorial complete cystic lesion or large cystic lesion with septum and/or solid nodule was found with MRI.

Objective To assess the displaying of the cystic artery and the cystic duct in calculus cholecystitis patients using MSCT.Methods One hundred and three patients with calculus cholecystitis (the experimental group)and 71 patients with non-gallbladder disease (the control group)performed the cystic artery and the cystic duct imaging using MSCT.The data in two groups were recorded and statistical analyzed.Results (1)The display rate of the cystic duct were 93.2% (96/103)in the experimental group and 100% (71/71)in the control group with the significant difference between the two groups (P <0.05).7 cases whose cystic ducts could not displayed in the experimental group were all the acute cholecystitis,and the display rate of the cystic duct in the acute cholecystitis was 77.4%(24/31).The display rate of the cystic artery were 100% in both the experimental and control group.(2)The variation rate of the cystic duct running were 10.4% (10/96)in the experimental group and 18.3% (13/71 )in the control group with no significant difference between the groups (P >0.05).The variation rate of the cystic artery running were 13.5% (13/96)in the experimental group and 1 5.5% (1 1/71)in the control group.There was no significant difference between the groups (P >0.05).Conclusion The cystic duct and the cystic artery could be evaluted well in calculus cholecystitis using CT.The displaying of the cystic duct is relatively poor in acute cholecystitis.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis of intracranial artery fenestration and its other vascular anomalies with CT angiography ( CTA ) . Methods The image data of 653 patients examined with head CTA and 39 patients diagnosed as intracranial artery fenestration in Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Sun Yat-sen University from January 2013 to January 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. The incidence, location,morphology of intracranial artery fenestration, and other vascular anomalies were analyzed. Results (1) In 653 patients,39 (5. 97%) with 41 artery fenestrations were detected. The detection rates of basilar artery fenestration was 3. 37% (n=22),vertebral artery fenestration was 0. 31% (n=2),anterior cerebral artery fenestration was 1. 22% (n =8),anterior communicating artery fenestration was 0. 61%(n=4),and middle cerebral artery fenestration was 0. 76% (n=5),respectively. The post-circulation fenestration was mainly convex lens type (66. 67%,n =17),the anterior-circulation fenestration was mainly fissure type (76. 47%,n=24),and there was significant difference (χ2=7. 411,P<0. 05). (2) In the 39 patients,22 complicated other vascular anomalies. Most of them were unilateral or bilateral fetal-type posterior cerebral arteries (n=10),and followed by aneurysms (n=5). The locations of 5 aneurysms were far from the fenestration,3 located in the communicating segment of internal carotid artery,1 in the top of basilar artery,and 1 in the M2 segment of bilateral middle cerebral arteries. Conclusion CTA can intuitively and clearly reveal the intracranial artery fenestration and other vascular anomalies. But there is no significant correlation between arterial fenestration and vascular anomalies.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the relationship between IL-1β and TNF-α mRNA and Fas protein expressions and cochlear ischemia reperfusion injury and investigate the protective mechanism of PPTA against cochlear reperfusion injury.

METHODSSixty-four guinea pigs were randomly divided into normal control group, blank control group, ischemia/reperfusion (by clamping the bilateral vertebral artery and right common carotid artery for 1 h) control group, and ischemia/reperfusion with PPTA treatment group. In PPTA group, PPTA was injected via the femoral vein immediately after reperfusion, and ischemia/reperfusion control group received saline injection. In 6 guinea pigs from each group, the cochlear tissues were removed after 24 h of reperfusion for examination of expressions of IL-1β and TNF-α mRNA by real-time PCR, and the rest animals were used for immunohistochemical detection of Fas protein.

RESULTSCompared with those of normal group and blank control group, the expressions of IL-1β and TNF-β mRNA increased significantly after cochlear ischemia/reperfusion (P<0.001), but were lowered significantly by PPTA (P<0.001). Positive expression of Fas protein expression was detected in the Corti organ, spiral ganglion and stria vascularis in ischemia/reperfusion control group with significantly higher IOD values than those of the other 3 groups (P<0.05). The IOD value showed no significant difference between PPTA-treated group, normal control group, and blank control group (P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONSPPTA can suppress the expression of Fas protein and IL-1β and TNF-β mRNAs in the cochlea of guinea pigs with cochlear ischemia/reperfusion. The protective effect of PPTA against cochlear ischemia/reperfusion is mediated probably by inhibition of inflammatory responses and cell apoptosis.

ObjectiveTo discuss the effects of adsorption(AP) combined with continuous venovenous hemofiltration(CVVH) on the serum inflammatory mediators levels in systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) patients.Methods Sixty-three SIRS patients were divided into treatment group (31 cases,AP combined with CVVH ) and control group (32 cases,CVVH ) by random digits table method.The changes of the serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α ),C-reactive protein (CRP),interleukin (IL)-1,IL-6 and IL-10 before and after treatment were compared in two groups.ResultsThere was no significant difference in the serum TNF-α,CRP,IL-1,IL-6,IL-10 before treatment between two groups (P ＞ 0.05 ).The serum TNF- α,CRP,IL- 1,IL-6,IL- 10 decreased after 2,26 and 50 h treatment compared with those before treatment in treatment group[after 2 h treatment:(226.4 ± 27.6) ng/L,(70.4 ± 22.1 ) mg/L,(30.1 ±2.9) ng/L,(227.5 ± 13.2) ng/L,(40.0 ±5.2) ng/L; after 26 h treatment:(165.3 ±24.5) ng/L,(58.2 ±25.1) mg/L,(18.2 ±2.7) ng/L,(82.4 ±7.2) ng/L,(26.2 ±4.3) ng/L; after 50 h treatment:( 120.6 ± 19.2) ng/L,(46.2 ± 24.6) mg/L,( 12.4 ± 2.3 ) ng/L,(38.1 ± 4.4 ) ng/L,( 15.2 ± 2.1 ) ng/L; before treatment:(350.8 ± 40.2) ng/L,( 126.4 ± 34.6) mg/L,(38.2 ± 3.6) ng/L,(307.7 ± 15.1 ) ng/L,(60.2 ± 9.3)ng/L,P ＜0.05].The serum TNF-α,CRP,IL-1,IL-6,IL-10 decreased after 26 and 50 h treatment compared with those before treatment in control group [after 26 h treatment:(262.7 ± 29.4) ng/L,(86.4 ±23.7) mg/L,(29.6 ± 3.1) ng/L,( 175.0 ± 10.6) ng/L,(42.7 ± 5.4) ng/L; after 50 h treatment:(219.3 ±25.6 ) ng/L,(75.6 ± 24.0) mg/L,(23.5 ± 2.8 ) ng/L,(99.0 ± 8.2 ) ng/L,(29.3 ± 4.8 ) ng/L; before treatment:(352.5 ± 40.4) ng/L,( 123.2 ± 35.2) mg/L,(37.5 ± 3.8) ng/L,(308.2 ± 15.3) ng/L,(58.4 ± 8.8) ng/L,P ＜0.05].There were significant differences in the serum TNF- α,CRP,IL-1,IL-6,IL-10 after 2,26 and 50 h treatment between two groups (P ＜ 0.05).ConclusionAP combined with CVVH can effectively decrease the serum inflammatory mediators in SIRS patients and it's therapeutic effect is superior to mere CVVH.
