Objective To observe the characteristics of the two-dimensional global strain index in patients with different degrees heart failure with speckle tracking echocardiography. Methods Totally 35 myocardial infarction patients with heart failure and 28 healthy subjects (control group) were enrolled in the study. The patients were divided into mild (n=14), moderate (n=13), and severe heart failure subgroup (n=8) according to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). The systolic longitudinal strain (LS), radial strain (RS) and circumferential strain (CS) were measured of left ventricular with two-dimensional speckle tracking technique. The average value of left ventricular 18 segmental LS, RS and CS was calculated as the global longitudinal strain (GLS), the global radial strain (GRS) and the global circumference strain (GCS), respectively. LVEF and left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV) were also measured with conventional two-dimensional echocardiography. The global two-dimensional strain and heart function between two groups were compared. The change of GLS, GRS and GCS of different heart failure and the relationship between them and LVEF were analyzed. Results Compared with control group, GLS, GRS and GCS reduced in heart failure groups (P<0.01). In heart failure groups, GLS significantly decreased with the decrease of LVEF, the difference of GLS was significant (P<0.05). GCS in severe heart failure subgroup was lower significantly than that in mild and moderate heart failure subgroups (P<0.05). No significant difference was found in GCS between mild and moderate heart failure subgroups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in GRS among heart failure subgroups (P>0.05). GLS was closely correlated to LVEF (r=-0.65, P<0.01), GCS was also correlated to LVEF (r=-0.55, P<0.01). Conclusion The changes of GLS, GRS and GCS is different in different degrees of heart failure. GLS is closely correlated to the change of LVEF. The change of GLS, GRS and GCS may reflect degrees of myocardial injury.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the dosimetric advantages of Gating in the treatment of prima-ry hepatic cancer with large segmentation. Methods A retrospective analysis of 10 patients with primary liver cancer from August 2017 to November 2018 after interventional therapy was performed using three consecutive phases of end-tidal phase to achieve pa-tient-controlled large-segment radiotherapy. Ten patients underwent 4DCT localization scan,and 10 respiratory phase sequences were reconstructed by respiratory wave-form,and the images were transmitted to the MIM6. 7. 6 workstation. In the MIM workstation, full-time phase maximum density projection(MIP-10),full-time phase average density projection(Mean-10),end-expiration 3 phase maximum density projection(MIP-3) and end-expiration 3 phase average density projection( Mean-3) were generated re-spectively,where MIP was used for target delineation and Mean for dose calculation. The radiotherapy doctor delineated IGTV-10 and IGTV-3 on the MIM workstation,and released CTV-10,CTV-3,PTV-10 and PTV-3 to compare the volume differences of the target area. After the target area was drawn,the image was transmitted from the MIM workstation to the Eclipse treatment planning sys-tem,and the full-time phase plan(Plan-10)with the same conditions and three consecutive phase-phase gating plans(Plan-3) were prepared. The prescriptive dosage was given at 50 Gy/10 f/2weeks. Comparing the HI and CI of the target area,the comparison of organs at risk included: the average dose of liver Dmean,the irradiation volume of liver less than 15Gy,the Dmax of small intestine, the Dmax of colon, the Dmax of stomach, the average dose of the kidney Dmean, the heart Dmax, and the spinal cord Dmax. Results The volume of the target area delineated at the end of expiratory phase was less than that of the target area outlined by the full-time phase in IGTV,CTV and PTV,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0. 05). In the two groups of seven field coplanar lage-segment radiotherapy plans,the 3-phase respiratory gating plan significantly reduced the dose of the organs at risk, and the difference was statistically significant(P<0. 05). At the same time,there was no statistically difference in the HI and CI be-tween of the two groups(P>0. 05). Conclusion The gated target area delineation and planning design of the three consecutive pha-ses of end-tidal phase reduce the volume of IGTV,CTV and PTV target regions compared with the selection of full-time phase,and have obvious advantages in the planned dosimetry. The irradiation dose that threatens the organs is worthy of being promoted and ap-plied in the large-scale radiotherapy of liver cancer.

Objective:To investigate the effect of tofacitinib on early atherosclerosis of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and explore the possible relationship between lupus nephritis and early atherosclerosis of systemic lupus erythematosus.Methods:Sixteen 8-week-old female MRL/lpr mice with a body weight of 20~25 g were selected and randomly divided into the treatment group and placebo group, with 8 mice in each group. The treatment group diluted tofacitinib by normal saline, and given at a dose of 10 mg·kg -1·d -1, and the placebo group (starch tablets) administered the medication in the same way as the treatment group for a total of 8 weeks. The ELISA method was applied to detect serum anti-dsDNA antibody levels in the two groups of mice. Bradford method protein concentration was used to determine the level of urine protein in mice. Automatic biochemical analyzer was used to detect blood lipids, urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, complement C3, complement C4 levels. Western blotting was used to determine the protein expression levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase family 1 (JAK1), signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 2 (STAT2) in aortic and kidney tissues. After the aortic arch section were prepared, oil red O was used to stain the sections, and the vascular plaque area and intimal thickness were evaluated by ImageJ software. The kidneys were dissected and stained with HE, and the active lesions of lupus nephritis were evaluated using the glomerular activity scoring system.

The urine protein levels in the two groups were positively correlated with LDL, TC, TG, aortic plaque area and aortic intimal thickness ( r=0.67, P=0.004; r=0.68, P=0.004; r=0.53, P=0.033; r=0.80, P<0.001; r=0.74, P=0.001), and negatively correlated with HDL ( r=-0.57, P=0.021). Conclusion:The severity of lupus nephritis is correlated with atherosclerosis and dyslipidemia in the early stage of systemic lupus erythematosus. Tofacitinib may reduce the degree of early arteriosclerosis and lupus nephritis in MRL/LPR mice, and reduce blood lipid levels, which may be effective in improving the prognosis of SLE and improving the survival rate of patients.

Objective:To analyze the serum levels of integrin-associated proteins (CD47) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and to explore its association with disease activity and bone destruction in RA.Methods:Serum and clinical data were collected from 65 RA patients and 25 healthy subjects. RA patients were grouped into low, moderate, and high bone erosion groups according to 7-joint ultrasonography score (US7). The levels of serum CD47, thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbnent assay (ELISA) in patients with RA and healthy subjects. The statistical analysis was carried out with independent t-test, analysis of variance, nonparametric rank sum test, pearson or Spearman correlation and logistic regression. Results:① The Serum levels of CD47, TSP-1, and RANKL were higher in the RA group than in the healthy controls ( P<0.01). ② In RA patients, serum CD47 level was positively correlated with disease course ( r=0.301, P<0.05), C-reactionprotein (CRP)( r=0.316, P<0.05), number of tender joints (TJC) ( r=0.254, P<0.05), number of swollen joints (SJC) ( r=0.316, P<0.05), disease activity score in 28 joints (DAS28) ( r=0.255, P<0.05), RANKL ( r=0.252, P<0.05) and TSP-1 ( r=0.260, P<0.05). Serum TSP-1 level was positively correlated with CRP ( r=0.299, P<0.05), TJC ( r=0.335, P<0.01), DAS28 ( r=0.315, P<0.05), RANKL ( r=0.305, P<0.05). ③ The disease course [ OR(95% CI)=1.048(1.033, 1.017)] and TSP-1 [ OR(95% CI)=1.013(1.000, 1.026)] were independently relevant factors affecting bone destruction. Conclusion:CD47 levels is significantly higher in RA patients than in healthy controls, and is associated with disease activity and bone destruction. CD47 may be involved in the bone destruction process of RA by acting on TSP-1.
