Objective To discuss the clinical application of multi-slice spiral CT angiography (MSCTA) in acute spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage .Methods 41 cases of acute spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage diagnosed with CT (including subarachniod cavity hemorrhage 29, intra-cerebral hematomas 12)were examined with MSCTA,the techniques of volume rendring (VR) and maximum intensity projection(MIP)were used. 7 cases of intracranial aneurysm closed by titanic clamp , 2 cases of cerebral arteriovenous malformation(AVM) and one case of AVM treated by intra-zest aneurysm excision,the post-operative MSCTA examination were received.Results 11 cases of intra-cerebral aneurysm, 4 cases of cerebral AVM and 1 case of AVM with intra-zest aneurysm were found among the 41 cases of acute spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage. MSCTA clearly demonstrated the size,neck and artery of aneurysms as well as the location, size ,zest shape, artery and vein of AVM. Pre-operative MSCTA findings of 7 cases of intracranial aneurysm clapped by titanic clap ,2 cases of cerebral AVM and 1 case of AVM treated by intra-zest aneurysm excision were confirmed with the operative findings.Post-operative MSCTA showed that the clamp location was normal; arteries were passable; zests of AVM were excised. Conclusion MSCTA is a non-injured, rapid and effective way to find the cause of acute spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage.It also has clinical application of post-operatiove assessment for intracranial aneurysm and cerebral AVM.

Objective:To explore the clinical features and risk factors of systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE) concomitant with interstitial lung disease(ILD) in children.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed.A total of 111 hospitalized children diagnosed with SLE in the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology, Children′s Hospital of Soochow University from February 2016 to November 2018 were selected as the research subjects and divided into the SLE-ILD group(18 cases) and the SLE-non-ILD group(93 cases)according to the lung high-resolution CT manifestations. T-test and Wilcoxon rank sum test were used to compare and analyze the general situation, clinical manifestations and laboratory results.Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of SLE-ILD. Results:The prevalence of SLE-ILD was 16.2%(18/111 cases). There were significant differences between the SLE-ILD group and the SLE-non-ILD group in the course of disease [14.00 (12.00-24.25) months vs.1.00(1.00-2.00) months], the incidence of serositis [55.6%(10/18 cases) vs.8.6%(8/93 cases)], post-activity shortness of breath [83.3%(15/18 cases) vs.25.8%(24/93 cases)], nervous system damage [27.8%(5/18 cases) vs.6.5%(6/93 cases)], cardiovascular system damage [38.9%(7/18 cases) vs.9.7%(9/93 cases)], the occu-rrence of increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate [66.7%(12/18 cases) vs.31.2%(29/93 cases)], the decreased C 3[88.9%(16/18 cases) vs.62.4%(58/93 cases)], positive anti neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) [88.9%(16/18 cases) vs.18.3%(17/93 cases)], positive anti-Sm antibody [61.1%(11/18 cases) vs.15.1%(14/93 cases)] and anti ribonucleoprotein antibody (anti RNP antibody)[66.7%(12/18 cases) vs.16.1%(15/93 cases)](all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that serositis( OR=30.535, 95% CI: 2.167-430.336, P=0.011), shortness of breath after exercise( OR=55.115, 95% CI: 1.117-2 579.852, P=0.041), positive ANCA( OR=65.090, 95% CI: 4.488-944.071, P=0.002) and positive anti-RNP antibody( OR=10.007, 95% CI: 1.362-73.500, P=0.024) were risk factors for SLE-ILD. Conclusions:The longer the course of SLE, the higher the incidence of ILD; serositis, shortness of breath after exercise, positive ANCA and positive anti RNP antibody may be risk factors for SLE-ILD.
