RESUMO
Objective:To solve the difficult problem of experimental teaching of MRI equipment by independently designing a virtual simulation teaching system for performance testing of medical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) equipment.Methods:A total of 202 students of Batch 2016 majoring in 4-year medical imaging technology and 5-year medical imaging of Binzhou Medical University. According to the teaching requirements of MRI equipment in Medical Imaging Equipment Science, a 3D experimental simulation model and experimental scenes were established based on Unity3D engine by using Unity3D, 3D Studio Max, Maya and Visual Studio technology to design experimental learning content and assessment content, develop the teaching system software and perform Web-based online learning. Then, the satisfaction survey on experimental learning was conducted, the statistics of the experimental results of the teaching system on the national virtual simulation experiment teaching platform was collected and the learning effects were evaluated in multiple dimensions. Results:The virtual simulation teaching system was a comprehensive experiment with 12 knowledge points, 12 experimental items and a total of 81 interactive contents and steps. The overall satisfaction rate of 202 students in our school was 96.82%(2 347/2 424). Among the 499 subjects who participated in the learning of the teaching system on the national virtual simulation experiment teaching platform and submitted the experimental report, the average score of the experiment was 78.07 points (the full score of online learning assessment was 90 points), and the overall passing rate was 96.79%(483/499). The average learning time of the 18 students who got 90 points was 54 min.Conclusion:This virtual simulation teaching system possesses comprehensive experimental contents with high fidelity of experimental scenes and strong interactivity of experimental operation, prospecting great learning effects and promotion value.
RESUMO
Duodenum-and bile duct-preserving pancreatic head resection is rarely carried out in China due to its complexity.From September 2013 to May 2014,5 patients (1 with mass-forming pancreatitis of the head of the pancreas,2 with mucinous cystadenoma of the pancreatic duct combined with focal cancerous,2 with chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic duct stones) received duodenum-and bile duct-preserving pancreatic head resection at the Zhangzhou Zhengxing Hospital.The lesions of the 5 patients were resected by the Takada method and then the pancreatic duct was reconstructed in situ.One patient received T-tube drainage of the bile duct.The operation time was 210-330 minutes,and the mean volume of intraoperative blood loss was 300 mL (range,100-500 mL).The stones of 2 patients were antler-shaped,and the other 3 patients were with tumor.No patients died intraoperatively.One patient was complicated by pancreatic leakage and 1 by bile leakage after the operation,respectively,and they were cured by non-surgical treatment.Patients were followed up for 3-11 months,and no abnormal glucose metabolism,common bile duct stricture,chronic indigestion and tumor recurrence occurred.The Takada method is safe and effective for the treatment of mass-forming pancreatitis of the head of the pancreas,benign lesions of the head of the pancreas and low-grade malignant tumor of the head of the pancreas.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the brain biochemical changes in the frontal lobe of adolescents with depression using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS). Methods Twenty-four patients and twenty-three healthy subjects matched for age, sex and education level were enrolled in the study. All the subjects underwent multivoxel 1H MRS to measure the bilateral metabolic levels of N-acetylaspartate (NAA), choline (Cho), creatine (Cr) in the prefrontal lobes. Results The NAA/Cr and Cho/Cr ratios in the left dorsolateral prefrontal white matter of the depressive adolescents were significantly lower than those of the healthy subjects [NAA/Cr: 1.67 ± 0.32, t = 3.126, P = 0.004; Cho/Cr: 1.28 ± 0.30, t = 2.362, P = 0.024], and the ratios of NAA/Cr in the right dorsolateral prefrontal white matter of the depressive adolescents was also significantly lower than that of the healthy subjects [NAA/Cr:1.65 ± 0.26, t=2.969, P=0.006]. There was no significant difference in the metabolic ratios in the bilateral anterior cingulate gray matter between the depressive adolescents and the healthy controls. Conclusions Biochemical abnormalities in prefrontal white matter are involved in the pathophysiology of depression. Importantly , these abnormalities are already present early in the course of the disorder.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the changes of the white matter in adolescent depression by using the method of tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS). Methods We employed TBSS to examine WM microstructure in 35 treatment-naive adolescents with clinical depression and in 40 matched controls. By using the TBSS, we compared the difference of fractional anisotropy (FA), axial diffusivity (AD), radial diffusivity (RD) and mean diffusivity (MD) between theadolescent patients with depression and the controls. Results Our analysis revealed the abnormal WM microstructures in the clinically depressed adolescents. The whole-brain analysis revealed that patients, with lower FA values in the body of the corpus callosum (CC) (P 0.05). The FA values in the body of the corpus callosum was negatively correlated with the severity of depression (P < 0.01). Conclusions Our findings suggest that WM abnormalities are involved in the path-physiology of depression. Importantly , our findings show that these WM abnormalities present early in the course of the disorder.
