ABSTRACT
The quality evaluation of X-ray protective clothing at home and abroad is mainly intended for the quality inspection of lead protective clothing. There is no unified standard to be developed for the test of lead protective clothing during use. When lead protective clothing with defective quality is used many times, this phenomenon will pose a greater safety hazard to radiation workers and patients. Therefore, in order to protect the health of radiation workers and patients, the implementation of regular testing and quality evaluation of lead protective clothing and the development of a standardized management system are important. This review introduces the domestic and international inspection method of X-ray lead protective clothing, summarizes the inspection and evaluation method in use, including shield transmission coefficient, defect detection and uniformity test, puts forward relevant suggestions to provide reference for the managers and practitioners of relevant institutions.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical value of tumor specific grow th factor(TSGF),neuron specific enolase(NSE),cytokeratin 19 fragment(CYFRA21-1),squamous cell carcinoma antigen(SCCAg)in the diagnosis of lung cancer.Methods 20 patients with lung cancer,42 patients with lung benign diseases and 54 healthy people undergoing the physical examination in this hospital from September 2014 to November 2016 were served as the lung cancer group,benign diseases group and healthy control group respectively.The Abbott microparticle chemiluminescence instrument was used to detect CYFRA21-1 and SCCA levels,the Roche electrochemical luminescence instrument was used to detect the NSE level and the TSGF level was de-tected by using the Olympus 5400 biochemical analyzer.Then the detection results were statistically analyzed. Results The levels of serum TSGF and NSE in the lung cancer group were higher than those in the lung be-nign diseases group and healthy control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P< 0.05). The serum CYFRA21-1 level of the lung benign disease group was higher than that in the healthy control group(P<0.05).The sensitivity and specificity of TSGF,NSE,CYFRA21-1 and SCCAg combined detection were 90.00% and 93.00% respectively.The area under the ROC curve was 0.959.Conclusion TSGF posses-ses wide spectrum marker characteristics,has a certain value for screening lung cancer,moreover its combined detection with NSE,CYFRA21-1 and SCCAg can increase the accuracy in diagnosis of lung cancer.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of prostate specific antigen (PSA),compound prostate specific antigen(cPSA),and cPSA / tPSA ratio in prostatic cancer(PCa).Methods Two hundred nineteen people,aged 62-68,were divided into three groups according to the clinical diagnosis,including PCa group(n=73),benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) group(n=76) and control group(n=70) composed of healthy people.The various indicators,including tPSA,cPSA and cPSA/tPSA were measured by Advia Centaur CP chemiluminescent analyzer.Results tPSA,cPSA and c/t significantly increased in PCa group compared with those in BPH or control group (P<0.05).ROC analysis indicated that if the tPSA cut-off values was19.89 μg/L,the sensitivity,specificity,the area under the curve (AUC) and Youden index would be 94.5%,97.9%,0.96 and 0.924 respectively.If the cut-off value of cPSA was 13.14 μg/L,the sensitivity,specificity,the area under the curve(AUC) and Youden index would be 95.9%,91.8%,0.98 and 0.877 respectively.The chi-square test showed that there is no correlation between tPSA,cPSA and pathology diagnosis(χ2=102.036、151.409,P<0.05).Conclusion PCa or PCa treatment relapse should be highly suspected when the concentration of tPSA or cPSA in patients reached 19.89 μg/L and 13.14 μg/L,the patients should be reminded for treatment timely.

ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the organ doses and their distributions in different projections of CT scans.Methods The CT values were measured and the linear absorption coefficients were derived for the main organs of the anthropomorphic phantom to compare with the normal values of human beings.The radiophotoluminescent glass dosimeters were set into various tissues or organs of the phantom for mimic measurements of the organ doses undergoing the head,chest,abdomen and pelvis CT scans,respectively.Results The tissue equivalence of the phantom used in this study was good.The brain had the largest organ dose undergoing the head CT scan.The organ doses in thyroid,breast,lung and oesophagus were relatively large in performing the chest CT scan,while the liver,stomach,colon and lung had relatively hrge organ doses in abdomen CT practice.The doses in bone surface and colon exceeded by 50 mGy in a single pelvis CT scan.Conclusions The organ doses and their distributions largely vary with different projections of CT scans.The organ doses of colon,bone marrow,gonads and bladder are fairly large in performing pelvis CT scan,which should be paid attention in the practice.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the effects of Rhizoma coptidis decoction on the myoelectric activity of womb of virginal rats and to discuss its mechanism. Methods: The changes of uterine myoelectric activity of rats were recorded by Biolap 98 biological system with a pair of mini bipolar Ag AgCl electrodes implanted on the uterine serosal surface. Rhizoma coptidis decoction was injected to find their effects on uterine myoelectric activity of rats, then M, H 1,?,L calaium channel and prostaglandin synthetase were blocked or inhibited respectively to be observed their influence Rhizoma coptidis decoction. Results:Rhizoma coptidis decoction can significantly increase uterine myoelectric activity of rats. After M and H 1 receptors were blocked, the effects of Rhizoma coptidis decoction were partially decreased. The effects of Rhizoma coptidis decoction were disappeared with L calcium channels blocked. But, nothing happened if ? receptor was blocked or prostaglandin synthetase was inhibited. Conclusions: Rhizoma coptidis decoction can significantly increase uterine myoelectric activity of rats, which may be associated with M receptor, H receptor and L calcium channels, nothing with ? receptor and synthesis or releasing of prostaglandin.
