Abstract Background The contribution of glycemic variability to macrovascular complications remains unclear. We therefore investigated the association between and cervical and/or intracranial atherosclerosis in Chinese type 2 diabetic patients. Methods conducted a cross-sectional study 216 patients with hemoglobin A 1c 8.3 ± 1.7% median diabetes duration 9.0 years. standard deviation blood glucose values (SDBG) mean amplitude excursion (MAGE) were calculated from continuous monitoring system...
Dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma is a rare, highly malignant tumor with poor survival. There are many confusing issues concerning the imaging feature that can facilitate early diagnosis and factors might be related to outcomes.Twenty-three patients dedifferentiated confirmed by pathology were retrospectively reviewed from 2008 2015. The patients' clinical information, images radiographs (n = 17), CT 19), MRI histological features, treatment prognosis analyzed.There 12 males 11 females, mean...
We describe a rare case of developmental venous anomaly associated with an arteriovenous malformation. A 20-year-old male presented seizures and was diagnosed left parietal malformation combined in the frontal lobe, draining veins both lesions converging into same bridging vein despite affecting anatomically distinct areas. The patient underwent craniotomy for resection However, progressive aphasia developed on third postoperative day. Subsequent neuroimaging (CT MRI) revealed thrombosis...
Abstract Cyclosporin A (CsA) administered to actively growing young rats produces a high-turnover osteopenia. We investigated and compared the effect of CsA on bone mineral metabolism in with that older rats, which have lower rate turnover. group 24 (9 weeks) months) male Sprague-Dawley were orally 15 mg/kg or placebo daily for days. Rats weighed serum assayed serially gla protein (BGP), parathyroid hormone, ionized calcium, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D...
Background and Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the anatomical changes investigate prevalence in intracranial aneurysm with fenestrations using magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). Materials Methods: Between June 2008 October 2010, 4652 patients (aged 23-73 years) suspected or other cerebrovascular diseases underwent MRA examination. performed a three-dimensional time-of-flight technique (3D-TOF) volume rendering (VR) maximum intensity projection reconstruction methods....
The clinical diagnosis of femoral trochlear dysplasia primarily relies on imaging. In the past, plain imaging was major source diagnosis. present study investigated application magnetic resonance (MRI) in objective assessment severe dysplasia. A retrospective analysis performed knee MRIs from 30 normal subjects (30 knees) and 59 patients (61 with based Dejour morphological classification. Cartilage subchondral bone landmarks were used to compare a series measurements between patient control...
Objective: Previous studies showed alterations of brain function in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex schizophrenia patients. Also, neurochemical changes, especially GABA level alteration, have been found medial However, relationship between and functional activity patients remains unexplored. Methods: In total, 23 drug-naïve, first-episode psychosis 26 matched healthy controls completed study. The single voxel proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy data were acquired region, which was used...
Abnormality in the concentration and functioning of gamma-aminobutyric acid (γ-aminobutyric acid, GABA) brain is not only an important hypothetical link to cause schizophrenia but it may also be correlated with cognitive decline negative symptoms schizophrenia. Studies utilizing high field magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) report abnormal density GABA ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) patients chronic schizophrenia, these results confounded by study participants' prior use...
Objective: To determine whether diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) is effective in monitoring tumor response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy patients with osteosarcoma.Materials and Methods: Twenty-nine osteosarcoma (20 men 9 women; mean age, 17.6 ± 7.8 years) who had undergone magnetic resonance (MRI) DKI before after were included.Tumor volume, apparent coefficient (ADC), diffusivity (MD), (MK), change ratio (ΔX) between preand post-treatment calculated.Based on histologic response, the divided...
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance whole-body (WB) DWI with background body suppression (DWIBS) combined calculation apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value at 3 T compared 18F-FDG PET/CT for detecting bone metastases in patients malignant tumors. SUBJECTS AND METHODS. Thirty-nine consecutive suspected underwent both WB DWIBS and FDG PET/CT. Imaging findings were independently interpreted using qualitative quantitative analyses. Pathologic or...
Schizophrenia is associated with impairment in prospective memory, the ability to remember carry out an intended action future. It has been established that cue identification (detection of event signaling should be performed) and intention retrieval (retrieval from long-term memory following recognition a cue) are two important processes underlying memory. The purpose this study was examine deficit cognitive patients first-episode schizophrenia.This examined components event-based using...
Alexithymia is a multifaceted personality trait characterized by emotional dysfunction.In this study, the functional and structural features of emotion network in alexithymia were investigated using resting-state MRI (rsfMRI), voxel-based morphometry (VBM), connectivity (FC) analysis, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). Alexithymic non-alexithymic students recruited from local university. The intrinsic neural activity gray matter density brain regions measured rsfMRI VBM; FC analysis DTI.The...
Hepatic echinococcosis is a parasitic disease. Ultrasound imaging crucially important tool for the diagnosis of this Based on ultrasonic manifestations, hepatic can be classified into many subtypes. However, subtyping nontrivial due to challenges complex sonographic textures and large intraclass small interclass differences. The purpose study develop computer-aided system based ultrasound images.We collected multicenter dataset containing 9112 images from 5028 patients who were diagnosed...
About 50% of the cerebral ischemia events are induced by intracranial and extracranial atherosclerosis. This study aimed to evaluate feasibility accuracy for displaying atherosclerotic plaques in carotid arteries analyzing their ingredients using high-resolution new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques.Totally, 49 patients suspected artery stenosis were subjected cranial MRI scan angiography (MRA) examination on arteries, bright-blood black-blood analysis was carried out within 1...
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) mainly infects the intestinal epithelial cells of pigs, causing porcine (PED). In particular, causes severe diarrhea, dehydration, and death in neonatal piglets. Maternal immunity effectively protects piglets from PEDV infection; however, maternal antibodies can only prevent attachment entry into target cells, but have no effects on intracellular viruses. Intracellular targeting virus-encoded proteins are effective preventing viral infection. We...
Alexithymia is a multifaceted personality trait and risk factor for several mental physical diseases.In this study, 21 alexithymic students nonalexithymic were recruited from the local university assigned to group control group, respectively.
