Objective To establish an equation of oxygen consumption in obese children and adolescents by multilevel linear model analytical method. Methods Sixty obese children and adolescents aged 11-16 years were randomly divided into the formula group(n=40) and back substitution verification group(n=20), with equal male and female. Subjects in formula group started exercise in the speed of 2km/h, increased lKm/h every 2.5 minutes till 8km/h, without gradient in treadmill and 80% HRmax was set as standard of exercise termination. Gaseous metabolism parameter and heart rate were measured for the set up of multiple linear regression equation of oxygen consumption. Back substitution verification was also made. Results Males' R~2 was 0.795 and females' R~2 was 0.75 in regression equation; oxygen consumption had a linear relationship (P0.001) with HR and LBM; The significance of variation coefficient and constants were obvious. The regression equation were set up as male:oxygen consumption(ml/min)=20.098xheart rate(bmp)+25.160×LBM(kg)-2935.835 and female: oxygen consumption(ml/min)=19.863xheart rate(bmp)+26.551×LBM(kg)-2675.676. The predictive value of oxygen consumption of the average relative error was 6.84%~8.72% in male, and 6.53%~8.23% in female. Conclusion The multiple regression equation of oxygen consumption with heart rate and body weight as independent variables might be applied in the calculation of the oxygen consumption of physical activity in obese children and adolescents.

Objective To compare the differences of cognitive dysfunction and hippocampal atrophy among patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and healthy controls and probe into the relativity of cognitive dysfunction with hippocampal atrophy after temporal lobe epilepsy. Methods Forty-nine TLE cases and 20 healthy individuals were randomly selected. The WAMS-R and WAIS-R scales were adopted to assess the memory and intelligence of all the subjects. Hippocampal volumes were measured by semiautomatic measurement on the head magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The degree of hippocampal atrophy (DHA) and asymmetry index (AsI) were caculated by adjusting hippocampal volumes and ratio of difference of two lateral hippocampal volumes. Results Compared with the healthy controls, not only did the TLE patients exhibit more memory deficits (83.2±21.0,t=-3.365 ,P=0.001 ), but also more fullscale intelligence (91.0±12.3, t=- 4.291, P=0.000). The bilateral hippocampi of all TLE patients significantly decreased in volume ( P=0.000 ) and increased in AsI ( t=3.975, P=0.000 ). The MQ of TLE patients was significantly negatively related to the duration of the illness ( r=-0.339, P=0.017 ). The bilateral DHA and the hippocampal AsI were negatively related to Z scores (left: r=-0.297, P= 0.038, right: r=-0.305, P=0.033, AsI: r=-0.441, P=0.002), repectively. Conclusions The more the DHA and asymmetry of bilateral hippocampi, the worse the cognitive dysfunction. The quantitative measurements of hippocampal volume could be used as a clinically effective factor for evaluating the decrease of the intelligence of TLE patients.
9. Observation on vulnerable coronary plaques in HIV-infected patients based on coronary CTA
Chinese Journal of Medical Imaging Technology 2020;36(3):391-395
Objective: To explore whether vulnerable coronary plaques in HIV-infected patients are different with those in non-HIV-infected ones, and to analyze the relative risk factors. Methods: A total of 167 HIV-infected patients (HIV-infected group) and 185 non-HIV-infected patients(non-HIV-infected group) who underwent coronary CTA (CCTA) were collected. Vulnerable plaques were defined as those with two or more high-risk morphological features. The type, location and incidence of vulnerable coronary plaques were analyzed and compared between 2 groups, and the risk factors of vulnerable coronary plaques in HIV-infected patients were analyzed. Results: There was no significant difference of baseline clinical data between the two groups. The most common types of vulnerable coronary plaques in 2 groups were both low attenuation plaques+positive remodeling, most located in the proximal segment of left anterior descending artery (segment 6). The incidence of vulnerable coronary plaques ≥1 coronary segments in HIV-infected patients was higher than that in non-HIV-infected patients (34.73% vs 24.32%,P<0.05). Vulnerable coronary plaques in HIV-infected patients were independently correlated with the duration of antiretroviral therapy (ART) drug (OR=1.29, 95%CI [1.04,1.59], P=0.02). Conclusion: The incidence of vulnerable coronary plaques in HIV-infected patients was higher than that in non-HIV-infected patients. ART drug may be an independent risk factor for coronary plaque vulnerability in HIV-infected patients.
