RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the predictive value of 18F-FDG PET-CT in the conversion from thoracoscopic lobectomy to thoracotomy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods:The clinical data, CT and PET-CT images of 193 patients with primary NSCLC undergoing thoracoscopic surgery from January 2014 to June 2021 at China-Japan Friendship Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were divided into 45 cases who were converted to thoracotomy (the conversional group) and 148 cases who were not converted to thoracotomy (the non-conversional group). Univariate analysis was performed on clinicopathological characteristics and image parameters. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the factors affecting the conversion to thoracotomy. Taking the final conversion to thoracotomy or not as the gold standard, the predictive effect of variables in the conversion to thoracotomy was analyzed through the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Delong test was used to compare the area under the curve (AUC) predicted by all variables.Results:In the conversional group, the proportion of peribronchial lymph node (PLN), peribronchial cuffs of soft (PCS), pleural calcification, pulmonary nodule calcification, PLN or PCS calcification or increased density on chest CT was higher than that in the non-conversional group (all P<0.05); and the maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max) of PET in the conversional group was higher compared with that in the non-conversional group ( P<0.001). Univariate logistic regression analysis suggested age ( OR = 4.663,95% CI 2.191- 9.923, P < 0.001) and PLN or PCS density of chest CT scan ( OR = 2.824, 95% CI 1.791-7.303, P < 0.001) were independent influencing factors of the conversion from thoracoscopic lobectomy to thoracotomy. ROC analysis showed that the effect of the conversion to thoracotomy predicted by the combination of 18F-FDG PET and chest CT [AUC = 0.891 (95% CI 0.831-0.951); the optimal cut-off value of SUV max and CT was 3.45, 70 Hu: the sensitivity was 84.4%, the specificity was 83.8%] was better than that by chest CT alone [AUC = 0.678 (95% CI 0.591-0.766); the optimal cut-off value of CT was 70 Hu: the sensitivity was 62.2%, the specificity was 62.8%; P < 0.001] and by age [AUC = 0.625 (95% CI 0.532-0.719); the optimal cut-off value was 65.5 years: the sensitivity was 75.6%, the specificity was 60.1%; P < 0.001]. Conclusions:PLN or PCS density on chest scan and age are valuable in predicting the conversion from thoracoscopic lobectomy to thoracotomy for NSCLC patients. The combination of PET and CT has an additional role in predicting the conversion to thoracotomy during thoracoscopic lobectomy.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Danggui Niantongtang （DGNT） against adjuvant arthritis （AA） rats with wind-dampness-heat arthralgia by quantitative proteomics. MethodSixty SD rats were randomly divided into normal group， model group， angelica came pain soup low， medium and high dose group and methotrexate （MTX） group， each group of 10， only the rat tail root subcutaneously inactivated mycobacterium tuberculosis （Mtb） of adjuvant to build model of AA， artificial climate box intervention 16 d rheumatic fever bi syndrome model is set up， building the day began to drug intervention， The intervention lasted for 28 days. The proteins of synovial tissues in experimental rats were extracted. The differential proteins in the medium-dose DGNT group and the model group were detected and analyzed by 4D label-free quantification （4D-LFQ） proteomics. The differentially expressed proteins associated with mitochondrial pathway apoptosis were verified by immunohistochemistry and Western blot. ResultA total of 4 756 proteins were identified from rat synovial tissues， of which 4 234 proteins contained quantitative information. There were 814 differential proteins between the model group and the DGNT group. As revealed by Gene Ontology （GO） and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Gene and Genome （KEGG） enrichment analyses， DGNT had an effect on the synovial proteome of AA rats with wind-dampness-heat arthralgia， and the differential proteins were enriched in the regulation of the immune system， response to acute inflammation， and apoptosis regulation. As demonstrated by the results of immunohistochemistry and Western blot， compared with the model group， the DGNT groups and the MTX group showed increased protein expression of B-cell lymphoma 2 （Bcl-2）-associated X protein （Bax） and cytochrome C （Cyt C）（P<0.05， P<0.01）， reduced Bcl-2 level （P<0.05， P<0.01）， elevated level of cleaved cysteinyl aspartate-specific protease 9 （Caspase-9）/Caspase-9 （P<0.01）， and decreased level of phosphorylated protein kinase B （p-Akt）/Akt（P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionDGNT involved multiple targets in the treatment of AA with wind-dampness-heat arthralgia and it may exert its effect in the prevention and treatment by regulating the Akt/Bax/Bcl-2 pathway and promoting the cell apoptosis in the mitochondrial pathway.

RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of Orem self-care model for elderly patients with hip fracture.Methods:The databases including Medline, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library Database, Wanfang, CNKI, VIP, and CMB were searched from inception to September 2020. All randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of the Orem self-care model applied in elderly patients with hip fracture were included. Two investigators independently screened research, extracted data and assessed the quality of literature based on standard methods. RevMan 5.3 software was performed to conduct the Meta-analysis.Results:A total of 11 RCTs were included, involving 1 088 patients. Compared with conventional nursing model, self-care model could effectively reduce the incidence of complications during hospitalization ( RR=0.26, 95% CI 0.18-0.39, P<0.001) and improve the Harris scores ( MD=13.33, 95% CI 11.09-15.57, P<0.001) of elderly patients with hip fracture. However, the impacts of self-care model on alleviating postoperative pain was still uncertain. Additionally, the self-care model could shorten hospital stay, but the combined effect size was unavailable due to the high heterogeneity between related studies. Conclusions:In comparison with conventional nursing model, the Orem self-care model was more beneficial to shorten the hospitalization stay, reduce the incidence of postoperative complications and promote hip joint function of elderly patients with hip fractures. To confirm the effectiveness of self-care models in pain management for elderly patients with hip fractures, multicenter RCTs with high quality and large samples are needed.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the neuroimaging relationship between tau protein deposition and brain atrophy, and assess their relationships with cognitive decline in Alzheimer′s disease (AD) patients.Methods:From April 2017 to October 2019, 26 AD patients (12 males, 14 females, age (70.7±12.2) years) and 19 cognitively normal controls (CN; 9 males, 10 females, age (65.6±8.1) years) in Chinese PLA General Hospital were retrospectively enrolled. All subjects received (S)-6-[(3- 18F-fluoro-2-hydroxy)propoxy]-2-(4-methylaminophenyl)quinoline ( 18F-THK5317) PET/MR and the standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR) and gray matter volume (GMV) were measured. General linear model (GLM) was used to evaluate the differences of SUVR and GMV between two groups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to assess the relationships between SUVR and GMV, and relationships of SUVR and GMV with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores in AD patients. Results:Compared with CN, the AD patients showed significantly increased 18F-THK5317 retention in lateral temporal, frontal, posterior cingulated/precuneus and occipital cortex with significant differences of SUVR between two groups (2.18±0.54 vs 1.78±0.09, 2.13±0.50 vs 1.82±0.06, 2.03±0.45 vs 1.69±0.08, 2.18±0.57 vs 1.76±0.10, t values: 2.58-6.57, all P<0.001). The AD patients also showed decreased GMV in medial temporal, posterior cingulated/precuneus and orbitofrontal cortex ( t values: 3.67-8.85, all P<0.001). In AD patients, SUVR was negatively associated with GMV in bilateral lateral temporal cortex, pre-frontal cortex and orbital frontal cortex ( r values: from -0.52 to -0.43, all P<0.05). Both SUVR ( r=-0.599, P=0.001) and GMV ( r=0.443, P=0.023) were significantly correlated with MMSE scores in AD patients. Conclusion:AD patients have neocortical 18F-THK5317 abnormal uptake and GMV reduction, which are significantly correlated with cognitive decline.
RESUMO
Objective:To explore the changes of cerebral blood flow (CBF) perfusion caused by N 2O (laughing gas) abuse. Methods:From December 2017 to October 2018, the CBF perfusion images of 24 patients with laughing gas abuse (9 males, 15 females; age: 18-32(24.0±8.9) years) from China-Japan Friendship Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. The region uptake statistics of different brain regions of interest (ROI) (basal ganglia, central region, cerebellum, cingulate gyrus, frontal lobe, medial temporal lobe, occipital lobe, parietal lobe, temporal lobe) between patients with laughing gas abuse and normal people of the same age group from background software database were calculated automatically. Statistic>1.68 indicated the increase of local CBF perfusion, while statistic < -1.68 indicated the decrease of local CBF perfusion. The correlation between the statistics of bilateral brain regions and the correlation between statistical values and clinical indicators were analyzed by Pearson and Spearman correlation analyses.Results:The correlation of the statistics between bilateral regions of each brain area was significant( r values: 0.503-0.892, all P<0.05). The decreased CBF proportions of frontal and temporal lobes were 62.5%(15/24) and 70.8%(17/24), respectively. The highest proportion of increased CBF was cingulate gyrus (33.3%, 8/24). There were significant correlations between frontal lobe, central brain area and duration of laughing gas abuse ( rs values: 0.375, 0.305, both P<0.05). Conclusion:CBF perfusion imaging is helpful for understanding the changes of CBF in patients with laughing gas abuse.

Objective To analyze the relationship between thyroid function and grades of diabetic nephropa-thy (DN).Methods One hundred and twenty patients with definite DN were classified into the four groups,and forty patients with non-DN diabetic was NDN group.Their serum albumin,blood hemoglobin,serum potassium,functional parameters of thyroid and dependability to DN were analyzed.Results The plasma albumin ofⅢ,Ⅳ and Ⅴ group were (41.3 ±3.6)g/L,(30.5 ±4.8)g/L and (28.3 ±5.9)g/L,which were lower than those of NDN group (F=11.36,P<0.05).24h urine protein ofⅢ,Ⅳ and Ⅴ were (0.48 ±0.29)g,(1.86 ±0.54)g and (1.69 ±0.67)g, which were higher than those of group NDN (F=7.12,P<0.05).Triiodothyronine(T3)ofⅢ,ⅣandⅤgroup were (0.98 ±0.38)nmol/L,(0.75 ±0.41)nmol/L and (0.60 ±0.28)nmol/L,which were lower than those of NDN group (F=7.64,P<0.05).Tetraiodothyronine(T4)of III,IV and V group were (6.06 ±1.76)nmol/L,(5.31 ±1.98)nmol/L and (4.65 ±1.87)nmol/L,which were lower than those of NDN group (F=6.83,P<0.05 ).Free Triiodothyronine (FT3)ofⅢ,Ⅳ and Ⅴ group were (4.37 ±2.12)pmol/L,(3.33 ±2.30)pmol/L and (2.91 ±1.82)pmol/L, which were lower than those of NDN group (F=7.14,P<0.05 ).Correlation analysis indicated that FT3 was an independent predictor for the severity of diabetic nephropathy.Conclusion In the patients with DN Ⅳ and Ⅴ,DN has attained a very severe status and the treatment of DN should be intensive.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the optimal workflow and protocol for integrated PET/MR by comparison with PET/CT.Methods A total of 228 patients were enrolled in this study for PET/CT and PET/MR evaluation on the same day.Six PET/MR protocols with different MR sequences but the same PET acquisition protocol were investigated and the optimal protocol was identified based on image quality,acquisition time and diagnostic performance.Results PET/MR workflow was similar to PET/CT,however,some special issues needed to be considered for PET/MR.Among the 6 protocols,protocol No.6 outperformed others for body and head regions.Types of artifacts were found more often in PET/MR than in PET/CT.Conclusions By optimizing the protocol,PET/MR could achieve almost the same diagnostic performance as PET/CT.However,the issues of long acquisition time and artifacts on PET/MR need to be further improved.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate high risk human papillomavirus(HR-HPV)prevalence among married women in Beijing and to study the high risk flactors.nethods During March 2007 to September 2008.a total of 6185 married women sampled from 137 communities in 12 districts were screened bv HR-HPV DNA test and cytogical test.The interview was carried out with unified questionnaires.The databage was set up and twice entered in EpiDam 3.0.After checked up,the data were analyzed in SPSS 15.0.Results (1) The HR-HPV infection rate was 9.89%.The HR-HPV infection rate of the city zone,the suburb and the exurb were 9.34%,10.51% and 9.51% (P>0.05).The HR-HPV infection rate of the native and the oudander were 9.53%,11.30% (P<0.05).(2) The age distribution of HR-HPV infection was that the rate was around 10% among 25 to 44 age groups,which was the highest(11.21%) in 30 to 34 age group;then the rate was descended as the age raising,the rate of 50 to 54 age group was the lowest(7.78%).(3) Multiple logistic regression showed that the related risk factors of HR-HPV infection mainly included 1000 RMB and above of family income per person per month.possessing more than 1 sexual partner of her husband,outlander and hish levels of education.(4) The prevalence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN)in HR-HPV positive group wag significantly higher than that in HR-HPV negative group(29.76% vs 3.32%,P<0.01).Conclusions(1)The HR-HPV infection rate among aged 25 to 54 years was 9.9% and there was no significant difference in area distribution.(2)The hish risk population which should strengthen screening was the married bearing-age women with high level of family income,outlander,high levels of education and her husband possessing more than 1 sexual partner.(3)HR-HPV infection is the main risk factor for CIN and cervical cancer.while does not provide a causal relationship with them.The high risk population should be checked regularly to understand the development of HR-HPV infection and CIN incidence.
RESUMO
Objective: To study the role of auto-antibody in the diagnosis of patients with PBC. Methods: ANA, SMA and AMA in serum of 58 PBC patients were tested by indirect immune fluorescence and Western blot. Such auto-antibodies as Anti-type AMAM2,anti-SLA/LP, anti-LKM-1 and anti-LC-1 were also identified. Results: Auto-antibodies existing in patients with PBC were mainly AMA(96.5%) and AMAM2(93.1%) and the titer was beyond 1∶100. 8 cases of those patients were positive with ANA and SMA simultaneously. One case had positive AMA and SLA/LP in serum and the clinical appearances were the same as those of type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ autoimmune hepatitis. 19 patients with positive AMAM2 in serum had liver-puncture and the results suggested the diagnosis of PBC in 63.7%(12/9). Conclusion: Test of auto-antibodies is clinically significant for the diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis.
