Objective To evaluate the usefulness of color Doppler ultrasonography in differential diagnosis of cervical lymphadenopathy by depicting the intranodal vascular pattern. Methods One hundred and twenty lymph node lesions in 113 patients who underwent color Doppler flow imaging were grouped as reactive lymphadenitis ( n =25), tuberculosis ( n =14), lymphoma ( n =41), and metastasis ( n =40). The vascular patterns of hilar type, central type, peripheral type and mixed type were assessed. Results Most reactive lymph nodes( 92.0%) and lymphomatous nodes( 75.6%) showed hilar vessels,lymphomatous nodes also frequently demonstrated peripheral vessels( 75.6%).Central vessels or peripheral vessels were frequent in metastatic nodes( 60.0% and 57.5%, respectively).The intranodal vascular distribution in tuberculous nodes was simulated malignant disease. Avascularity was observed in 2 of 25 reactive lymph nodes and 1 of 14 tuberculous nodes. Conclusions Central vessels or peripheral vessels were mainly found in malignant lymphadenopathy,and the presence of hilar vessels is suggestive of benign lymphadenopathy. However, there is overlap of appearance between benign and malignant disease.

Objectives To investigate the regularity of fluctuation and clinical senses of serum c reactive protein (CRP) level in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI) Methods 100 subjects (56 males and 44 females) were divided into five groups including 24 large artery arteriosclerosis (LAA), 27 small artery occlusion (SAO), 2 cardiac embolism(CE), 34 other Certain(OC) and 13 undetermined etiology according to Trial of ORG 10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment (TOAST) Through enzyme linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA), we detected and analyzed CRP levels of 100 inpatients Results The risk factors of stroke included coronary heart disease , hypertension, diabetes and intoxication of CO and so on Among the above mentioned, the level of CRP and rate of positive CRP of patients who poisoned by CO was the highest That of coronary heart disease group was lower However, there was no notable difference between hypertension and diabetes groups Conclusions CRP may play a certain role in the occurrence and development of ACI It represents different levels in different types of stroke

ObjectiveTo investigate the value of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of the papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) in patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT).MethodsThis retrospective study used data from Ruijin Hospital of Shanghai Jiaotong University of Medicine during November 2012 to December 2013. A total of 111 small thyroid nodules (75 PTMC/36 benign nodules) with 107 HT cases which were pathologically conifrmed were included in this study. The sonographic characteristics of nodules were investigated, including nodule aspect ratio, shape, border, margin, acoustic halo, internal structure, echo level, microcalciifcations, rear acoustic attenuation, vascular pattern and extent of the blood supply and the types of thyroid tissue echogenicity. Chi-square test and Fisher′s exact probability method was used to compare the differences of the sonographic characteristics between the benign nodules and malignant nodules. With surgical pathology as the gold standard, computing the value of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of PTMC with HT, including the sensitivity, speciifcity, diagnostic accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value.ResultsA total of 111 thyroid tiny nodules (75 PTMC/36 benign nodules) with 107 HT cases which were pathologically conifrmed were included in this study. The results showed 111 small thyroid nodules as solid hypoechoic. Four indexes between PTMC and benign nodules had statistical signiifcance, such as margin, microcalciifcations, vascular pattern and extent of the blood supply. The other six indexes between PTMC and benign nodules had no statistical significance, such as aspect ratio, shape, border, acoustic halo, rear acoustic attenuation and the types of thyroid tissue echogenicity. Ultrasound diagnostic accuracy of small tyroid nodules in patients with HT was 74.77% (83/111). The sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of the ultrasound diagnosis of PTMC were 93.33% (70/75), 36.11% (13/36), 74.77% (83/111), 75.27% (70/93), and 72.22% (13/18), respectively.ConclusionsCompared with general population, some classic ultrasound features became less effective in patients with HT. However, ultrasonography has some differential diagnostic value in these cases.

Objective To investigate the ultrasonographic manifestations of traumatic neuroma after neck dissection in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).Methods A retrospective analysis was performed in 21 patients with 26 lesions who underwent neck dissection.The ultrasonographic characteristics were reviewed,including numbers,location,size,shape,margin,echogenicity,with or without direct continuity to the nerve fiber,the presence of internal hyperechogenicity and blood supply.Results Among the 26 lesions of 21 patients,25 lesions were in the lateral cervical area while the other one was in the central cervical area.The mean shortest diameter of the lesions was (3.5±1.0)mm and that of longest diameter was (9.1±2.9)mm.Totally 13 lesions were oval in shape and the other 13 were round.The clear margin was found in 13 lesions and fuzzy margin was observed in another 13 lesions.All the lesions were heterogeneously hypoechoic.The presence of internal hyperechoic areas were found in 16 lesions.The direct continuity with the nerve fiber was found in 20 lesions,while the other 6 lesions were not continued to the nerve directly.Color Doppler flow imaging showed that 20 of the 26 lesions existed a little blood flow signal and the other 6 lesions showed no flow signal.During the ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy (US-FNAB),21 patients complained about the intolerable serious pain and the pain relieved when the needle removed.Conclusion Traumatic neuromas are hypoecho lesions located in the operation area after neck dissection in PTC with distinctive ultrasonographic features,especially the direct continuity with the nerve fiber,as well as the clinical histories and sharp pain during US-FNAB,which can help to diagnose.

Objective To summarize continuous veno- venous hemofiltration (CVVH) treatment of infants with complex congenital heart disease in children with acute renal failure after treatment. Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out in six cases of infants with congenital heart disease with application of CVVH. The children were given monitoring and anticoagulant treatment. The renal function, electrolytes and urine volume were compared before and after the treatment. Results The amount of urine increased, blood circulation and electrolytes remained stable in six patients 17.5-135.0 hours after CVVH. Conclusions The CVVH therapy can be applied to treat infants with congenital heart disease complicated with acute renal failure, but CVVH treatment should focus on anticoagulants and blood volume since complicated state of illness, low age, low body weight of children patients.

Objective To probe the clinical value of transesophageal echocardiography(TEE) in diagnoses of mediastinal teratoma.Method Differential diagnosis of benign or malignant tumor was carried out on the bases of echocharacteristics,size,capsule lesion,boundary,growing speed,invasion and compression of tumor etc with TEE in twenty cases of mediastinal teratoma.Results The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of the TEE diagnosis for mediastinal teratoma were 70%,94%,90% respectively.Conclusion TEE has an important value for diagnosis of mediastinal teratoma.

Objective To investigate the MR features of uterine leiomyomas and evaluate its diagnostic value. Methods Twenty six patients with probable uterine leiomyomas underwent preoperative ultrasound, T 1 weighted spin echo and T 2 weighted fast spin echo MR examinations. Among them, 11 cases were performed with dynamic contrast enhancement. Comparative analysis between MRI findings and pathologic results was done. Results MRI diagnosis in all cases was consistent with the results given by surgery and pathology, except 2 being pathologically proven as endometrial polyp or inflammatory pseudoplasma. The diagnostic accuracy of MRI was 92%, while the accuracy of ultrasound was 85%. The difference between the number of lesions detected by two modalities had statistical significance (89% for MRI vs 69% for ultrasound, ? 2=17.86, P
