ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the role of cerebrospinal fluie( CSF)cytology on eiagnosis of meningeal cancer. Methods Retrospectively analyzee the clinical eata of 23 cases with meningeal cancer. Results (1)Of 23 patients,CSF eetection of 17 cases were showee with cancer cells at the first lumbar puncture,3 cases at the 2ne lumbar puncture,2 cases at the 3re eetection,ane 1 case at 4th eetection.(2)Of 23 cases with cerebrospinal fluie cytology positive patients,17 cases were carriee cranial MRI scan. The MRI showee that 9 were normal ane 8 cases were brain parenchyma ane meningeal image enhance. Ten cases were performee the enhancee MRI scan,5 cases were with extensive meningeal thickening,3 cases were showee meningeal extensive enhancement of brain surfer ane intracranial cerebral sulci,1 case was the circular shaeow strengthen at eifferent size at next to the eouble lateral parietal,occipital ane left cerebella hemisphere,ans 1 case was with tough brain surface ane abnormally long T1,long T2 signal at lateral ventricles,thire ventricle, fourth ventricle epeneymal.(3)The relationship between the primary tumor ane cancer eetection in cerebrospinal fluie:19 patients were foune with primary tumor lesions,inclueing 5 cases leukemia(3 cases with acute lymphoblastic leukemia,2 cases with acute non-lymphocytic leukemia),4 cases with lung cancer,3 cases with breast cancer,2 cases with brain lymphoma,1 case with melanoma,1 case with Hoegkin′s lymphoma,l case with nasopharyngeal carcinoma, 1 case with vaginal squamous cell carcinoma, 1 case with gastric carcinoma. Conclusion Multiple cerebrospinal fluie cytology eetection may improve meningeal cancer eetection rate. CSF cytology eetection can improve eiagnosis rate of meningeal cancer. No relationship between the eetection of cancer cells in cerebrospinal fluie ane brain MRI meningeal lesions,ane the further research neee to be eone with expaneing the sample size.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:To establish the real body’s artery model has its own limitations due to the diversity of different individual differences in the carotid artery and blood flow. OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of different inlet velocity profiles of the common carotid artery and three different flow ratios of internal and external carotid artery on hemodynamics of the carotid artery. METHODS:The carotid bifurcation TF-AHCB numerical model was established. Commercial software ANSYS was used to compute the flow field and calculate hematodynamic parameters, including velocity and wal shear stress. Then, their relationship with atherosclerosis was analyzed from different angles. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Flow ratio of internal and external carotid artery significantly influences the flow field of the simulated bifurcation of the carotid artery. Changes in the magnitude of inlet velocity cannot only alter the hematodynamic properties, but also change the range of mechanical mechanism.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Yinhe gargle on infected root canals. Methods Forty-seven cases of root canal infection ( involving 48 affected teeth) were randomly divided into two groups. The experimental group (22 cases involving 22 affected teeth) was given intracanal medicament with Yinhe gargle, and the control group ( 25 cases involving 26 affected teeth) was given root canal disinfection with camphor phenol. After intracanal medicament for one week, therapeutic effect and safety were evaluated in the two groups. Results ( 1) During root canal disinfection, none of the subjects had adverse reaction such as hypersensitiveness or cauterization of soft tissue. Canal obturation was available after the first intracanal medicament for the infected root canals. (2) After intracanal medicament for one week, the effective rate in the experimental group was 95.45%, and was 100.00%in the control group, the difference being in significant (P>0.05). Conclusion Yinhe gargle has similar disinfection effect to camphor phenol on infected root canals, and it can be used as disinfection medicament for root canals.
ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study is to assess the nutritional value and biological effect of Collybia Velutipes. The results were as follows: (1) 10% Collybia Velutipes extract contains 19210mg/L of total amino acid. It is more than the content in the equal amount of mushrooms. (2) The kindergarten children were fed with Collybia Velutipes product for 7 weeks. It was found that the height and the circumference of the mid-upper arm in the children were significantly higher than the control. (3) Weanling male and female rats of wistar strain were divided into two groups ana led the following diets: group l(control), Collybia Velutipes (CV) free diet; group 2(subject), diet containing 25% CV product which contains 2.5% dried CV. The rats were fed the diet ad libitum for 6 weeks. At the end of the experiment, we found that the food effect (FE) of the subject group was significantly higher than the control (P
