Objective To explore the value of MRI dynamic contrast-enhanced in differentiating adrenal adenomas from nonadenomas with washout rate of enhancement and the increased SI ratio. Methods Thirty-six patients with 41 adrenal masses enrolled into this study. All these masses underwent conventional T 1WI and T 2WI sequence first, and then FMPSPGR sequence through the center of each mass. Precontrast and dynamic contrast-enhanced FMPSPGR scans were preformed after administration of contrast material of Gd-DTPA intravenously. The signal intensity(SI) of masses was measured on the screen by electronic cursor. The washout rate of enhancement and increased SI ratio were compared between adenomas and nonadenomas. The differentiating adrenal adenomas from nonadenomas were carried out based on combination of the washout rate and the increased SI ratio, meanwhile, the sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosis of adenomas were evaluated well.Results The sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosis of adenomas were 74% and 73%,and accuracy was 73% when the washout ratio was used as a indicator at 5 min. The sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosis of adenomas would be improved markedly when the combination of the washout ratio and the increased SI ratio was used as a indicator.The sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosis of adenomas were 95%, 91% respectively,and accuracy was 93%. Conclusion Using MRI dynamic contrast-enhanced based on combination of washout rate of enhancement and the increased SI ratio,the diagnosis and differentiating diagnosis of adrenal adenoma and nonadenoma can be improved.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of frequent relapse primary nephritic syndrome (PNS) in children according to the statistical analysis of their clinical data and laboratory examinations. Method We collected in-hospital and out-patient medical records of children who were diagnosed PNS from Jan. 2007 to Feb. 2010 and whole clinical data were analyzed. Results In 245 cases of children with steroid sensitine nephrotic syndrome, non-frequent replapse (NFR) accounted for 82.4% and frequent relapse (FR) accounted for 17.6%. In univariate analysis, period of first relapse between initial treatment remission within 3 months , level of serum total protein and cholesterol and IgE at onset had statistical significance in FR children and NFR children, which were significant predictors of FR. The logistic regression analysis revealed that the first relapse after initial treatment remission within 3 months and increasing of serum IgE level (more than 358 IU/ml)were risk factors of FR. Among frequent relapses factors, infection, especially upper respiratory tract infection was the first (65. 1%). The relapse with motivation mainly in January to March, accounted for 30. 4%. Conclusion FR had a proportion of 17. 6% in children with PNS under regular glucocorticoid treatment. It showed seasonality feature that relapse. peak in winter and spring. Level of the serum total protein less than 40g/L and cholesterol more than 10mmol/L at onset can be predictive index of FR. Infections are the main motivation of relapse, but the relapse by irregular treatment and specific constitutions should be pay more attentions too.
