Objective To study on the directing role of multi-slice spiral CT and multiplanar reformation(MPR)in bronchoscopy and enhance the yield of peripheral pulmonary carcinoma(PPC).Methods This study was carried in 60 PPC patients from Respiratory Department in the First Hospital Affilliated to Suzhou University during 2002—2005.They underwent MSCT.Images were reconstructed with MPR(CPR)to evaluate the relationship between PPC and bronchi and the type of BS was identified.Compare the diagnosed yields of bronchoscopic multiple diagnostic procedure(BMDPs)with types of BS.Results (1)In all patients the third to the seventh level branches of the bronchi were clearly shown.The tumor-bronchus relationship was identified as four types on MSCT.(2)MSCT demonstrated the BS in 22 of 25 adenocarcinomas and 13 of 17 squamous-cell carcinomas and 4 of 6 small cell lung carcinomas and 4 of 8 bronchiolo-alveolar carcinomas.(3)BS typeⅠwas shown in 15of 48(31.3%).Type Ⅱ was seen in 7 of 48(14.6%).Type Ⅲ was shown in 12 of 48(25%)squamous tumors.Type Ⅳ was seen in 14 of 48(29.2%).(4)Total positive rate of bronchoscopy was 58.3%,73.3% with BS and 13.3% without BS.Type of BS was closely associated with positive rate of BMDPs.Conclusion Axial CT and MPR can show the relationship between PPC and bronchi better.BS can direct fiberoptic bronchoscopy(FOB)diagnosis procedure and enhance the yield of PPC.

Objective To investigate the significance of MRI T2 fluid-attenuated inversion recovery hyperintense vessel sign (FLAIR HVS)in clinical prognosis evaluation of the patients with acute middle cerebral artery irnfarction.Methods The data in 57 inpatients with acute middle cerebral artery infarction in our hospital from Aug.2013 to Aug.2015 were retrospectively analyzed.All cases were performed the intact MRI examination(ineluding FLAIR,DWI and MRA)and CTA.The infarct volume with DWI,national institute of health stroke scale(NIHSS)score and modified Rankin Scale(mRS)score on 30 d after discharge were performed the comparative analysis.Results Fifty-seven cases of middle cerebral artery occlusion were divided into the distal HVSgroup and non-distal HVS group(8 cases in proximal HVS group,21 cases in HVS negative group).The infarction volume of DWI sequence,NIHSS scores at admissiom and discharge and mRS score on 30 d after discharge in the distal HVS group were superior to those in the non-distal HVS group(P＜0.05).Conclusion MRI-T2 FLAIR sequence HVS has certain reference value in the prognosis evaluation in the patients with middle cerebral artery occlusion.

Objectiv e:To investigate the effect of different culture conditions on the differentiation of Treg and Th17 to lay a foundation for exploring the methods to reverse the immune tolerance induced by tumor microenvironment.Methods:The IL-6 gene was cloned and stablely transferred into the tumor cell line expressing TGF-β.The conditioned mediums ( CM) were prepared by collecting the culture supernatants of tumor cell lines with or without IL-6 expression and used in the in vitro culture of peripheral blood mononuclear cells ( PBMC ) .The changes of Treg and Th17 in PBMC treated with different CM were detected with flow cytometry ( FCM) .Results:The expression of TGF-βin BEL-7402 was higher than that in HepG2.Thus the BEL-7402 was selected for preparation of cell line stablely transfected with IL -6 gene.ELISA detection confirmed the effective expression of IL -6 by the identified cell lines.It was showed that the Treg increased in PBMC treated with culture supernatants of tumor cells .However,the presence of IL-6 reversed the increase of Treg and promoted the differentiation of Th 17.Conclusion: The culture supernatants of tumor cells increases the proportion of Treg.However,the presence of IL-6 in this CM can reverse the increase of Treg and raise the proportion of Th 17.

Objective To study the immunoreactivity of fascin and Ki-67 proteins in bladder carcinoma and the correlation between their expression and the pathological features.Methods The immunohistochemistry of fascin and Ki-67 proteins were detected in 111 cases of bladder carcinoma and 42 cases of normal bladder tissues.The correlation between their expression and the pathological features were analyzed statistically.Results There was no expression of fascin and Ki-67 in normal bladder tissues.The immunoreactivities of fascin and Ki67 were detected respectively in 94 and 92 of 111 bladder carcinomas.The immunoreactivity of fascin was correlated with TNM staging and the size of the tumor(P<0.05),and had no correlation with age,gender and pathological classification(P>0.05).The expression of fascin was positively correlated with the expression of Ki-67 in bladder carcinoma(P<0.01).Conclusion Fasicn and Ki-67 were expressed in bladder carcinoma.The combined detection of fascin and Ki-67 expression might be helpful to assess the prognosis of bladder carcinoma.Targeting the fascin and Ki-67 pathway could be a novel therapeutic strategy of bladder carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the method of vulvar reconstruction after extended vulvectomy. Methods Retrospectively, fourteen cases of vulva carcinoma were treated by radical wide local excision, and the defects were repaired with anterolateral thigh flap and inferior pedicle rectus abdominal myocutaneous flap. After the flap was harvested, it was put on the defect through the tunnel between the donor and the recipient site and the vulvae was reconstructed. Results All the flaps were survived except 1 anterolateral thigh flap with partial necrosis. One patient was infected at the groin incision but the flap and the grafted skin were survived. The patients were treated with change of the dressing and recovered after skin grafting. All other incisions were healed with first intention. The partial necrosis area was about 4 cm?6 cm, it healed at 36 postoperative days after free skin grafting. The reconstructed vulvae were plump and elastic. It appeared like the normal vulvae and there was no contraction of the vagina. Conclusions Vulvar reconstruction with the anterolateral thigh flap and rectus abdominal flaps after the radical vulvectomy could make the patients recover easily. It produces almost normal appearance and function of the vulvae, reduces the time of would healing. The patient could have the next therapy more quickly and the quality of life improves. It has wide application value in clinics.

Ongoing study on the chemical constituents of the roots of Macleaya microcarpa led to the isolation of eight compounds of derivatives of triterpenes and organic acids in addition to some previously identified benzophenanthridines. The eight compounds were identified by spectroscopic methods as well as comparison with literature values as 1-oxo-2, 22 (30)-hopandien-29-oic acid (1), 3-oxo-12-oleanen-30-oic acid (2), 3α-hydroxy-12-oleanen-30-oic acid (3), 3β-hydroxy-12-oleanen-30-oic acid (4), ferulic acid (5), ferulic acid 4-O-β-D-glucoside (6), 3-O-feruloylquinic acid (7), and methyl 3-O-feruloylquinate (8). Of which, 1 is a new triterpenoid of hopanes and 2-8 are isolated from M microcarpa for the first time. In order to discover natural active compounds as potential agents of anti-ulcerative colitis (UC), an in vitro drug high-throughput screening model targeted x-box-binding protein 1 (xbp1) was employed to evaluate the activity of the major chemical constituents of M microcarpa. The result confirmed that two dihydrobenzophenanthridines, dihydrosanguinarine (9) and dihydrochelerythrine (10), showed a certain activity on activating the transcription of xbpl, a transcription factor (TF) associated with the occurrence, development, and potential treatment of UC, with their relative activating ratios being 1.76 and 1.77 times, respectively, as compared with control group.

Objective:To investigate the value of pericoronary adipose tissue histogram parameters based on coronary CT angiography (CTA) images for the differentiation of acute coronary syndrome and stable coronary artery disease.Methods:The clinical data and CTA images of 93 patients with coronary CTA examination in Suzhou Kowloon Hospital from 2013 to 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 39 patients with acute coronary syndrome (acute coronary syndrome group) and 54 patients with stable coronary artery disease (stable coronary artery disease group). A region of interest (ROI) was drawn around the stenosis of the coronary arteries, with CT attenuation ranging from-190 to -30 HU to exclude non-adipose tissue. The CT attenuation of ROI excluding non-adipose were measured and histogram analysis was performed. The obtained parameters included the mean value, median value and the 5th, 10th, 45th, 55th, 70th and 95th percentiles. The differences in histogram parameters between the two groups were compared, and then the value of each parameter in differentiating acute coronary syndrome and stable coronary artery disease was evaluated based on receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. The stepwise regression of multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the useful features and establish the final prediction model. The ROC curve of the final model was calculated and its value was analyzed.Results:The mean, median and the 5th, 10th, 45th, 55th,70th and 95th percentile differences between the acute coronary syndrome group and the stable coronary artery disease group were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The ROC curve for the median and the 95th percentile had the same area under curve (AUC) of 0.73. The sensitivity, specificity and AUC of the diagnostic model established by multiple logistic regression were 82.1%, 89.1% and 0.90 respectively. Conclusion:CT attenuation histogram of pericoronary adipose tissue is of high value in differentiating acute coronary syndrome from stable coronary artery disease.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) for Trousseau’s syndrome (TS) in patients with acute multiple cerebral infarctions (AMCI).Methods:The patients with AMCI in Suzhou Kowloon Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from July 2013 to March 2022 were retrospectively enrolled. The demographic and baseline clinical data of patients with TS and those without TS were compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent influencing factors of TS-AMCI, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of NLR for TS-AMCI. Results:A total of 59 patients with AMCI were enrolled, including 43 males and 16 females, aged 64.9±14.0 years. There were 16 patients in the TS-AMCI group and 43 in the non-TS-AMCI group. The proportions of patients with diabetes mellitus, hypertension and previous stroke or transient ischemic attack in the TS-AMCI group were significantly lower than those in the non-TS-AMCI group (all P<0.05), while the proportion of patients with ischemic heart disease were significantly higher than that in the non-TS-AMCI group ( P<0.05). The proportion of patients with bilateral infarction in the TS-AMCI group was significantly higher than that in the non-TS-AMCI group ( P<0.001). The D-dimer, NLR, white blood cell count, neutrophil count, monocyte count, percentage of neutrophils, total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in the TS-AMCI group were significantly higher than those in the non-TS-AMCI group (all P<0.001), while the lymphocyte count, lymphocyte percentage, red blood cell count, hemoglobin and hematocrit were significantly lower than those in the non-TS-AMCI group (all P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that high NLR was an independent predictor of TS-AMCI (odds ratio [ OR] 2.897, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.270-6.527; P=0.011), while high hemoglobin was independently negatively correlated with TS-AMCI ( OR 0.839, 95% CI 0.723-0.975; P=0.022). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of NLR for predicting TS-AMCI was 0.929 (95% CI 0.831-0.979; P<0.001). When the NLR cutoff value was 4.01, the corresponding Youden index was 0.744. At this time, the sensitivity and specificity were 100% and 74.42% respectively. Conclusion:NLR has high predictive value for TS-AMCI.

Objective:To investigate the evaluation value of one-stop whole-brain dynamic volume CT angiography and CT perfusion imaging (CTA-CTP) in the cynomolgus monkeys models of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO).Methods:Ten adult cynomolgus monkeys were selected and examined by head and neck CTA-CTP and craniocerebral MRI to rule out craniocerebral space-occupying lesions or cerebrovascular malformation. Under guidance of digital substraction angiography (DSA), the right femoral artery was dissected and monkey autologous thrombosis was injected into the right middle cerebral artery (MCA) through microcatheter to prepare MCAO models. Whole brain DSA was performed intraoperatively to observe whether the model was successfully prepared, and head and neck CTA-CTP was performed 24 h and 7 d after modeling to determine the locations and brain blood flow changes of ischemic lesions. The monkeys were sacrificed 8 d after modeling, and the brain tissues were stained with 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC).Results:Among the 10 cynomolgus monkeys, one was excluded because of preoperative cerebrovascular malformation, and one died of cerebral hernia caused by cerebral hemorrhage during the experiment. The remaining 8 MCAO models were successfully prepared. Intraoperative DSA orthography showed unclear M1 segment and distal branch of MCA. Brain CT scan 24 h and 7 d after modeling showed obvious cerebral ischemic lesions in the right MCA blood supply area, and the infarct extent 7 d after surgery was more obvious than that 24 h after surgery. CTA examination showed obvious blood flow interruption imaging in the in M1 segment of MCA on the right side, the distal vessels were not clearly displayed and the distal branches of the infarct side 7 d after surgery were obvious decreased as compared with those 24 h after surgery. CTP scan showed that the cerebral blood volume of the right cerebrum was obviously reduced as compared with that of the left cerebrum, which was consistent with the blood supply area of MCA; and the infarct cores and penumbra areas 7 d after surgery were obvious increased as compared with those 24 h after surgery. TTC staining showed that the ischemic lesions of the brain tissue on the slices were gray and involved multiple layers, and the range was roughly consistent with the infarction sites shown by DSA and CT imaging.Conclusion:One-stop whole brain dynamic volume CTA-CTP has good evaluation value in imaging findings in MCAO animal models.
