Collimating micro-lens fiber array for noncontact near-infrared diffuse correlation tomography

Near-infrared diffuse correlation spectroscopy/tomography (DCS/DCT) has recently emerged as a noninvasive measurement/imaging technology for tissue blood flow. In DCT studies, the high-dense collection of light temporal autocorrelation curves (g₂(τ)) via fiber array are critical for image reconstruction of blood flow. Previously, the camera-based fiber array limits the field of view (FOV), precluding its applications on large-size human tissues. The line-shape fiber probe based on lens combination, which is predominantly used in current DCT studies, requires rotated-scanning over the surface of target tissue, substantially prolonging the measurement time and increasing the system instability. In this study, we design a noncontact optical probe for DCT based on collimating micro-lens fiber array, termed as FA-nc-DCT system. For each source/detector fiber, a single optical path was collimated by coupling with one micro-lens in the fiber array that is integrated in a square-shape base. Additionally, an 8×8 optical switch is used to share the hardware laser and detectors without spatial scanning. The FA-nc approach for the precise collection of g₂(τ) curves was validated through a speed-varied phantom experiment and the human experiments of cuff occlusion, from which the expected value of the blood flow index (BFI) was obtained. Furthermore, the flow anomaly in the phantom and the ischemic muscle in human were accurately reconstructed from the FA-nc-DCT system, which is combined with the imaging framework based on the Nth-order linear algorithm that we recently created. Those outcomes demonstrated the great potential of FA-nc-DCT technology for fast and robust imaging of various diseases such as human breast cancers.

职业性萘暴露工人的健康监护结果评价

目的：讨论萘对人体的慢性毒效应和亚临床客观检测指标。方法：对河南省萘暴露工人（环境接触萘浓度平均为８．２５～２６．４３ｍｇ／ｍ３）进行了健康监护和医学动态观察。结果：发现长期萘暴露工人的白细胞、血小板减少及眼晶体混浊检出率显著高于对照组（Ｐ＜０．００１）；血清ＳＯＤ同功酶、ＧＳＨ－ＰＸ活性显著低于对照组，而ＬＰＯ水平、神经元特异性烯醇化酶（ＮＳＥ）活性水平以及外周血染色体畸变和微核阳性检出率均显著高于对照组（Ｐ＜０．００１）。神经行为功能检查结果，主要为消极情绪增加，记忆力下降等。事件相关电位Ｐ３００峰潜伏期比对照组显著延长，与对照组差异显著（Ｐ＜０．０５）。结论：慢性低浓度萘暴露对工人主要损害部位（靶器官）有皮肤，眼、血液和神经组织等。ＮＣＴＢ、ＮＳＥ、Ｐ３００三项可作为早期神经受损的客观指标。     

植物营养活力素对小鼠生长及耐受能力的影响

以不同剂量的植物营养活力素（ＰＶＮ）喂饲小鼠，对小鼠的体重增长、耐寒、耐热、耐力等进行了观测。结果：用药后实验小鼠的体重和胸脾系数明显增加；耐寒、耐热及持续游泳时间明显延长。表明ＰＶＮ可明显提高小鼠的体重增长和对应激的耐受能力，提示其营养作用不仅适用于植物，而且适用于动物。

多济敷对面部磨削创面愈合的临床疗效观察

目的：本研究采用多济敷外用于面部皮损磨削术后创面,观察其对创面愈合时间、皮肤色素沉着等的变化。方法：采用区域神经阻滞或局部浸润麻醉,对不同类型的面部皮损34例进行皮肤磨削治疗,术后创面应用多济敷或凡士林纱布作为底层敷料包扎创面,术后换药一次,保留底层敷料。结果：2001年8月至2003年9月间,通过自身对照,34例面部磨削术后采用多济敷治疗组较凡士林纱布组创面愈合时间缩短(P＜0．05),经过6个月至2年的随访,皮肤色素沉着也有明显改善。结论：多济敷有利于缩短面部磨削术后创面愈合时间,改善面部色素沉着,外观满意。
