RESUMO
Objective Dual-source CT(DSCT) energy imaging was used to analyze the difference of energy spectrum pa-rameters and energy spectrum curves between mediastinal metastatic lymph nodes and non-metastatic lymph nodes in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). The relationship between DSCT standardized iodine concentration and energy spectrum curve with medias-tinal lymph node metastasis was discussed. Methods A total of 113 patients with NSCLC underwent DSCT energy imaging scans. Io-dine images were obtained at the processing workstation. The normalized iodine concentrations of all mediastinal lymph nodes and en-ergy spectrum curves at different energy levels were measured. According to the pathological results,the patients were divided into lymph node metastasis group and non-lymph node metastasis group. The normalized iodine concentration and energy spectrum curve slope of the two groups were analyzed by t-test. The best threshold of standardized working iodine concentration was calculated by re-ceiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)to diagnose the mediastinal lymph node metastasis of NSCLC. Results There was a sig-nificant difference in the normalized iodine concentration between the two groups of mediastinal lymph nodes in NSCLC(P<0. 05);The ROC curve was used to calculate the standardized iodine concentration for the diagnosis of NSCLC. The optimal threshold for lymph node metastasis was 52. 45% ;The energy spectrum curve of mediastinal lymph nodes in NSCLC was gradually decreasing. There was a significant difference between the two groups in the range of 40~110 keV interval(P<0. 05). Conclusion The quanti-tative analysis of DSCT energy imaging parameters is of great significance in the diagnosis of mediastinal lymph node metastasis in NSCLC. It can be used as an important index for preoperative judgment of lymph node metastasis in NSCLC.
RESUMO
Objective To establish cell model of Parkinson's disease(PD)and to approach the toxic effect of rotenone on dopaminergic neurons and its mechanism.Methods PC12 cells were differentiated into dopaminergic neurons and treated with various concentrations of rotenone.The morphological changes of PC12 cells were observed after treated with rotenone(0,10,25,50,75,and 100 nmol?L-1)for 24,48 and 72 h,the cell viability was measured by MTT assay.Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence were used to observe the accumulation of ?-synuclein in cytoplasm.AO/EB double staining was also adopted to test apoptosis.Results After differentiation PC12 cells shaped irregularly with big and long ecptomas and multiple cell conjunctions.After the treatment of rotenone cell ecptomas vanished gradually and cell bodies became smaller and smoother.The cell viability began to decline significantly at a concentration of 50 nmol?L-1 for 24 h(P
