正常成人眶尖的CT和MRI研究

目的：研究正常人眶尖的CT和MRI检查图像,探讨对疾病诊断的意义。方法对52例正常成人眶尖分别采用CT和MRI检查,CT进行横断及冠状位扫描,MRI进行横断、冠状及斜矢状位扫描。结果眶尖骨性结构可以通过高分辨率CT清晰显示;其他结构比如视神经、动眼神经、眼动脉、总腱环及眼外肌、脂肪分布等通过常规CT及MRI全部或者部分显示。结论高分辨率CT可对眶尖骨性构成清晰显示,眶尖其他部位采用CT及MRI扫描可以全部或者部分显示,其中以MRI显示效果更好。研究正常人眶尖的CT和MRI检查图像对疾病诊断有积极的意义。     

眼眶爆裂骨折的CT诊断(附226例报告)

目的：回顾性复习眼眶爆裂骨折的CT资料，探讨CT检查方法对眼眶爆裂骨折的显示及诊断价值。方法：对226例患者行CT冠状位扫描和／或横断扫描，分析其CT表现的直接和间接征象。结果：本组226例病例，其中单纯内壁骨折105例(占46．46％)，单纯下壁骨折13例(占5.75％)，双壁(内、下壁)骨折23例(占10．18％)，眼眶复合型骨折85例(占37．61％)。眼眶爆裂骨折CT表现的直接征象为眶壁骨质断裂移位、粉碎和曲度异常。眼眶爆裂骨折CT表现的间接征象中眼外肌改变及眶内肌锥外积气在骨折中发生率较高。结论：冠状CT扫描是眼眶爆裂骨折的首选检查方法，眼眶爆裂骨折的间接征象尤其是眼外肌改变及眶内肌锥外积气对诊断有重要意义。     

眶尖区外伤CT和MRI的诊断及比较

目的:探讨64排CT和1.5TMRI在诊断眶尖区外伤的价值。方法:53例眶尖区外伤病例行64排CT和1.5T MRI检查。结果:64排CT显示本组眼眶壁全部骨折,视神经损伤32例,眼外肌损伤37例,球后血肿12例。1.5T MRI显示视神经损伤47例,眼外肌损伤51例,球后血肿11例。结论:1.5TMRI检查对外伤性视神经和眼外肌损伤等软组织损伤优于64排CT检查,而64排CT检查对眶壁骨折优于1.5TMRI检查。     

眶爆裂性骨折的影像学诊断

目的：探讨分析眶爆裂性骨折发病机理、影像学表现及手术适应症。方法：回顾性分析37例眶爆裂性骨折的临床及影像学资料。结果：眶内壁骨折平片主要为患侧筛实密度增高，眶内缘不清、眶下壁骨折主要表现为上颌窦上壁不清。CT除显示骨折外还显示眶内脂肪、眼外肌的疝出和嵌顿情况。眶下壁骨折时冠状位扫描优于轴位扫描。结论：凝有眶爆裂性骨折时应首选CT检查。平片着重观察眶缘是否清晰、完整和鼻窭的透亮度。     

Graves眼病的CT和MRI影像学分析

眼眶MRI在不同分期弥漫性甲状腺肿伴甲亢眼病患者检测中的影像学特征及意义

目的:探讨眼眶MRI在不同分期弥漫性甲状腺肿伴甲亢眼病患者检测中的影像学特征及意义。方法:选取32例弥漫性甲状腺肿伴甲亢眼病(Graves)患者作为观察组,另选取同期在本院体检的无任何眼科疾病的32例健康志愿者作为对照组。两组均接受眼眶MRI检查,比较两组Graves眼病活动期与非活动期泪腺横断位短径、横断位长径、横断位截面积、冠状位短径、冠状位长径、冠状位截面积、泪腺与同侧颞肌的信号强度比(SIR)、体积等各定量参数,并分析泪腺/颞肌SIR与临床活动性评分(CAS)相关性分析、Graves眼病眼眶MRI影像学特征,统计MRI诊断Graves眼病不同分期符合率。结果:观察组泪腺横断位短径、横断位长径、横断位截面积、冠状位短径、冠状位长径、冠状位截面积、体积、泪腺/颞肌SIR值较对照组大,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);Graves眼病活动期泪腺横断位短径、横断位长径、横断位截面积、冠状位短径、冠状位长径、冠状位截面积值与非活动期相比,差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);但活动期泪腺/颞肌SIR值较非活动期高,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);经Spearman检验可知,泪腺/颞肌SIR与CAS评分之间呈正相关,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);Graves眼病患者多数表现为双侧眼球突出,肌锥内外脂肪组织增多,纺锤样增粗,其中以肌腹增粗为主;眶尖部视神经受到压迫;MRI诊断Graves眼病不同分期符合率为84.38%。结论:活动期与非活动期弥漫性甲状腺肿伴甲亢眼病患者眼眶MRI检测的泪腺定量参数不等,使用脂肪抑制T2加权序列可提高活动期患者眼外肌内水肿和炎性成分辨别敏感度,有助于指导临床治疗及预后评估。

Acupuncture Treatment of Vomiting

CASE HISTORY A female patient, 46 years old, head of the foreign affairs department of a certain university in Beijing, paid her first visit on October 9, 2006, with the chief complaint of vomiting for one month. She got vomiting after meals in early September. Before that, she had discomfortable sensation in the stomach due to angry with others, but she didn't pay much attention. Later, it developed into vomiting after eating. After the vomiting, the discomfort would be relieved, but with slight hypodynamia. She was once diagnosed as having 'neurogenic vomiting'. Having taken some western and Chinese drugs, the above symptoms were a little bit improved, but she would have nausea upon eating and with regurgitation. Because of the fear for vomiting, she did not dare to have food intake, with body weight reduction of 6 kilos in one month.     

Qiu Baoguo''''s Experience in Treating Consumptive Syndromes after Radio-Chemotherapies

Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are the important modern medical therapies for malignant tumors,yet they can also bring about serious local and systemic toxic side reactions so to decrease the patient;'s life quality,manifested by a series of consumptive symptoms.Having engaged in the combined work of Chinese and western medicine for nearly 50 years,the research fellow Qiu Baoguo in Henan Provincial Academy of TCM has developed his unique views on the TCM study of consumptive syndromes.The author of this essay had once the fortune tO follow Dr.Qiu in clinic,and specially would like to introduce in the following Dr.Qiu's experience in treating consumptive syndromes after radio-chemotherapies for patients with malignant tumor.     

Insomnia Due to Deficiency of Both the Heart and Spleen Treated by Acupuncture-Moxibustion and Chinese Tuina

OBJECTIVE: To observe therapeutic effects of the comprehensive therapy of acupuncture-moxibustion and Chinese Tuina for treatment of insomnia due to deficiency of both the heart and spleen. METHODS: 92 cases were divided randomly into the treatment group (treated by acupuncture-moxibustion and Chinese Tuina) and the control group (treated by acupuncture-moxibustion). RESULTS: The therapeutic effect of the treatment group was obviously superior to that of the control group (the CHI2 test showed P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: The comprehensive therapy of acupuncture-moxibustion and Chinese Tuina can give marked therapeutic effects for treatment of insomnia due to deficiency of both the heart and spleen.     

Analysis of CK-19,PDX-1,Nestin,Ngn3 in different donor islet purity in rats

Objective: To investigate if there are the CK-19, PDX-1, Nestin, Ngn3 positive cells in the donor islets of different purity in rats. Methods: Thirty male adult SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups. Islets were isolated using digestion by ductal injection of collagenase. Group Ⅰ (n=10): Separating cell preparations were not purified, Group Ⅱ(n=10): Islet sediment was purified with 25% Ficoll400 ,Group Ⅲ (n=10): Islet sediment was purified with 25% and 11% Ficoll-400. The levels of protein of CK-19, PDX-1, Nestin and Ngn3 were detected by immunohistochemistry and the mRNA of CK-19, PDX-1, Nestin, Ngn3 was amplified by RT-PCR. Results: After two different purification methods applied, three islet preparations of different purities were obtained. The difference of islet purity was significant among various groups (P＜0.05). Compared with group Ⅱ and group Ⅲ,the protein and mRNA of CK-19, PDX-1, Nestin,Ngn3 were both higher in group Ⅰ; group Ⅲ was poorly expressed. Conclusions: The three different islet purity donor islet have different CK-19, PDX-1, Nestin, Ngn3 positive cells within them, indicating that there are some islet stem cells in the purified donor islet.     

A preliminary screening study on the associated proteins in human psoriasis vulgaris by serum proteomics technologies

Objective：To investigate the optimum screening conditions of associated proteins in human psoriasis vulgaris by serum proteomics technique, and to screen the different expression proteins related with psoriasis vulgaris. Methods：Serum samples of peripheral blood were collected from newly diagnosed psoriasis vulgaris patients in the clinic, and 20 matched healthy persons. Serum albumin IgG was removed by filtering with ProteoExtract Albumin/IgG. After comparative proteomics analysis the different protein spots were identified using 2-DE and MS. Results ：Electrophoresis figures with high resolution and reproducibility were obtained. Three different expression proteins were found only in the serum from psoriasis vulgaris patients, while nine other different proteins expressing from healthy volunteers. Conclusion：The protein expression was different in the serum between the psoriasis vulgaris patients and healthy volunteers. It was hoped that we could find the biomarkers related to psoriasis vulgaris by using proteomics.
