Purpose Ectopic fat accumulation and abdominal distribution may have different cardiometabolic risk profiles. This study aimed to assess the associations between various magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-acquired depots factors. Methods A total of 320 subjects with median age 59 years, 148 men 172 women, were enrolled in study. Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) area fraction (FF), subcutaneous (SAT) FF at L1–L2 levels, preperitoneal (pPAT) FF, hepatic pancreatic intramuscular assessed by MRI...
This study aimed to investigate whether diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) could contribute the discrimination between benign and malignant renal cancer.We searched PubMed electronic database for eligible studies. STATA 12.0 software was used statistical analysis. The SMD 95% CI were calculated.Decreased ADC signal seen in all cancer patients (cancer tissue versus normal tissue: = 1.63 0.96~2.29, P < 0.001; 2.22 1.53~2.90 0.001, resp.). MRI machine type-stratified analysis showed that...
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is an important human pathogenic virus. It urgent to develop novel antiviral targets because of the limited treatment options and emergence drug resistant strains. In this study, we tested activity lupeol, a triterpenoid compound, against HSV-1 acyclovir (ACV) Lupeol significantly inhibited (F strain) ACV-resistant strains including HSV-1/106, HSV-1/153, HSV-1/Blue. HSV-1α0 α4 promoters, therefore down regulating expression α0, α4, α27 genes. Collectively,...
Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a complex syndrome with high morbidity and slow progression. Early stages of CKD are asymptomatic lack awareness at this stage allows to progress through advanced stages. detection critical for the early intervention prognosis improvement. Purpose To assess capability mDIXON-Quant imaging detect evaluate degree renal damage in patients CKD. Study type Retrospective. Population 35 CKD: 18 cases were classifified as mild group (group A) 17 moderate...
Dendrobium nobile Lindl. (D.nobile) contributes to an hepatoprotective effect. Unfortunately, the active components and molecular mechanism of D.nobile in alcoholic liver injury is still elusive. Here, we investigated function main ingredients aqueous extract (DNAE) vivo on regulating expression E74-like factor 4 (ELF4) macrophages against through reducing inflammatory response. The differential expressed genes (DEGs) transcription factors (TFs) mouse immune cells were determined by...
Objective: To evaluate the value of single-source dual-energy CT (ssDECT) in differentiating lipid-poor adenomas from metastases adrenal glands. Methods: From August 2011 to Oct 2014, 63 patients with 73 nodules (53 proven by 5-6 months follow-up, and 20 histopathologically adenomas, > 10 HU) underwent ssDECT scanning. The values conventional polychromatic virtual monochromatic images (40-140 keV) , fat-water density effective atomic number (eff-Z) were reconstructed on an ADW4.5 workstation...
Objective To explore the application value of optimal energy imaging technique monoenergetic dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) in feeding arteries examination rectal cancer. Methods The clinical data 33 patients with cancer who were admitted to First Affiliated Hospital Dalian Medical University from July 2012 2014 analyzed retrospectively. The polychromatic and monochromatic images tumors reconstructed evaluated using a subjective image quality score 5-point scale by 2...
Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is the most common type of chronic worldwide, which linked to bile acid (BA) metabolism dysregulation. Large population studies showed that dendrobium officinale (D. officinale) could ameliorate lipid accumulation, however, underlying mechanism D. altered BA in hepatic still unclear. In this study, protective effects aqueous extract (DOAE) on acute alcoholic injury (AALI) mice were evaluated by determining serum biochemical indicators and pathology, was...
Radiodensity measured by computed tomography (CT) in Hounsfield Units (HU) is emerging as a clinical tool for detecting perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) inflammation. In the present study, we hypothesized that PVAT radiodensity might predict risk of descending thoracic aorta atherosclerosis. A total 73 subjects who underwent CT angiography to investigate aortic disease were retrospectively analyzed. radiodensity, complex plaque (ACP), mean plaque-burden score (MPBS), and density measured,...
