龙葵药材薄层鉴别研究

目的研究中药龙葵的薄层鉴别方法。方法依据现行《中国药典》2010年版一部附录ⅥB试验方法考察了不同提取方法、薄层板、展开剂、显色剂下龙葵的薄层鉴别方法。结果用硅胶G薄层板．二氯甲烷一甲醇一氨水（8：1．5：0．4）为展开剂,以10％硫酸乙醇试液显色,再置紫外灯（365nm）下检视斑点,分离效果最佳。结论本实验研究可作为龙葵药材质量标准的修订内容。     

Malignant uveal melanoma and simulating lesions: MR imaging evaluation

Twenty-one patients with intraocular disease were studied by magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and computed tomography (CT). In 13 cases, malignant uveal melanoma was considered the likely diagnosis. Both imaging methods were accurate in determining the location and size of uveal melanomas. MR imaging was superior for the assessment of possible associated retinal detachment, for assessment of vitreous change, and for differentiating uveal melanoma from choroidal hemangioma and choroidal detachment. A case of retinal gliosis could not be differentiated from uveal melanoma by either technique. Uveal melanomas appeared as hyperintense lesions on T1-weighted images and as hypointense lesions on T2-weighted images. High signal intensity of the vitreous was observed in patients with vitritis and in those who were thought to have protein leaking into the vitreous as a result of impairment of the retinal-blood barrier.     

Acute renal rejection versus acute tubular necrosis in a canine model: MR evaluation

Findings of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in acute renal rejection and acute tubular necrosis (ATN) were studied in dogs. On T1-weighted images, corticomedullary differentiation was absent in kidneys undergoing acute rejection. The loss of corticomedullary differentiation in these kidneys was secondary to a decrease in the relative signal intensity of the cortex, indicating prolongation of the T1 relaxation time of the cortex. In contrast, corticomedullary differentiation was preserved on T1-weighted images of autotransplanted kidneys and kidneys with ATN. MR imaging findings correlated with changes in water content in these three groups of kidneys. Kidneys undergoing acute rejection showed a marked increase in water content compared with kidneys in the other two groups. No change in fat content was found in any group.
