Objective To evaluate the clinical usefulness of MR imaging(MRI) and MR tomography angiography(MRTA) in demonstrating the presence and degree of neurovascular contact of the rostral ventrolateral medulla oblongata(RVLM) in root entry zone of the 9th and 10th cranial nerves in patients with essential hypertension(EHT) and normotensive health volunteers(NTHV).Methods(Patients with) EHT(group 1,n=100) and NTHV(group 2,n=88) underwent high-resolution(axial and coronal) brain stem MRI and MRTA.Images were interpreted consensually by tow radiologists who were blinded to the patients hypertensive status.Neurovascular contact was graded as vessel contact without RVLM deformity(gradeⅠ),clear vessel contact in continuity with the brain stem but without apparent associated deformity(graded Ⅱ), and displacement contact of the RVLM(graded Ⅲ).Results(Neurovascular) contact of RVLM was found in 52.0%(52/100) of EHT and in 43.2%(38/88) of NTHV(?~2=1.459,P=0.230).The compression rate(gradeⅠ—Ⅲ) and affected side(left or right) showed no statistically significant differences between the EHT and NTHV(?~2=0.879,P=0.350;?~2=0.238,(P=0.628);?~2=0.733,P=0.390).Conclusion Neurovascular contact is not more frequently seen in patients with EHT than in normotensive contact subject.This result does no support the hypothesis that neurovascular contact at the RVLM is an etiology of EHT.Furthermore,thin-slice(3 mm) MRI may not be a reliable good screening method for detecting patients with neurovascular contact.Therefore,MRI cannot aid patient selection among hypertension patients lacking symptomatic cranial neuralgias.

Objective To discuss the application value of CT angiography (CTA) in evaluating renal artery anatomy of laparoscopic nephron-sparing surgery (LNSS) before operation. Methods Retroperitoneal LNSS was performed in 87 patients with renal tumors. Forty cases underwent CTA before LNSS, volume rendering and maximum intensity projection of renal artery were used as three-dimensional reconstruction. The other 47 without CTA were compared as control. Treatment out-comes of the 2 groups were compared, including operation time, warm ischemia time, blood loss, con-version to open surgery, hospitalization stay after operation, and complications after operation. Re-sults All the procedures were completed laparoscopically with no conversion to open surgery in CTA group. One patient underwent conversion to open surgery in the control group. In CTA and control group, the operation time was 94 min(range, 76-118)and 115 min(90-190, P<0.05). The warm ischemia time was 23 min(12-39)and 29 min(18-40, P<0.05). Blood loss was 90 ml(9.0-160) and 130 m1(90-600, P<0.01). Hospitalization stay after operation was 4.1 d(3-5) and 5.5 d(3-9), respectively(P<0.05). The pathologic examination showed negative surgical margin in all cases of renal cell carcinoma. The patients were followed up for 4 months to 32 months. Neither distant nor local recurrences were observed, and the renal function was normal in all cases. Urinary leakage oc-curred in 1 patient of each group. Conclusions CTA could be an effective method in evaluating the supply blood vessels of kidney before LNSS. And it can shorten the operation time and warm ischemia time, reduce the blood loss, as the result of helping the operaters deal with renal artery more quickly and accurately.

Purpose To investigate the expression of C-C chemokine receptor 9 (CCR9) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and to explore its prognostic value. Methods The expression of CCR9 was detected by immunohistochemistry in tumor tissues and corre-sponding adjacent normal tissues from 119 NSCLC patients. Additionally, the correlation between CCR9 expression and the clinicopath-ologic features of NSCLC and the relationship between prognostic factors and overall survival rate were analyzed by statistical methods. Results The positive expression rate of CCR9 was significantly higher in NSCLC tissues (54. 6%) than that in adjacent normal lung tissues (10. 1%) (P<0. 05). The expression of CCR9 in NSCLC was correlated with histopathologic type, lymph node status and p-TNM stage (P<0. 05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis suggested that the positive expression of CCR9 was negatively correlated with the overall survival rate (Log-rank=9. 917, P=0. 002). Univariate analysis showed that the lymph node status, p-TNM stage and the positive expression of CCR9 made great difference to postoperative overall survival (P<0. 05). Multivariate analysis showed that CCR9 expression was an independent prognostic factor for overall survival of NSCLC patients ( RR=0. 447, 95%CI:0. 201 ~0. 993, P<0. 05). Conclusion The expression of CCR9 may predict a poor prognosis in the patients with NSCLC, so it can be used as a novel NSCLC biomarker.
