Objective:To develop a diagnostic analysis software for determining the type of acid-base balance disorder.Methods:Mathematical models were built based on Henderson-Hasselbalch equations and compensation formulas, to determine the important parameters of acid-base balance disorder, and to develope acid-base balance disorder analysis process. The software was compiled using the Visual Basic.NET programming language, and the installation package was generated after debugging. Acid-base balance disorder cases were searched by PubMed, Wanfang and CNKI databases from 1980 to 2015, and the blood gas parameters [pH, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2), HCO 3- and anion gap (AG)] and the types of acid-base imbalance (literature results) were recorded. All cases were reanalyzed by software and the type of acid-base balance disorder was determined (software diagnostic type). Kappa-test and McNemar-test were performed for the two diagnostic results. Results:The "four parameters-four steps" analysis method was used as the analysis process to judge the types of acid-base balance disorder. "Four parameters" included pH, PaCO 2, HCO 3- and AG. "Four steps" were outlined by following aspects:①according to the pH, combined with PaCO 2 and HCO 3-, the primary types of acid-base balance disorder was determined; ② according to the compensation situation, double mixed acid-base balance disorder (DABD) was determined; ③according to AG value, three mixed acid-base disorders (TABD) were determined; ④ the ratio of ΔAG↑/ΔHCO 3-↓ was also calculated to determine whether there was normal AG metabolic acidosis or metabolic alkalosis. The software had the characteristics of simple interface, convenient operation, rapid judgment, and comprehensive analysis. It could judge all acid-base balance disorder types excepted "AG normal metabolic acidosis combined metabolic alkalosis". The software was used to reanalyze 112 cases of acid-base balance disorder reported in the literature, with a consistent rate of 87.50% and better consistency of the diagnostic results (Kappa test: κ = 0.84, P < 0.01; McNemar test: χ2 = 0.87, P = 0.65). Conclusion:The software can be used as an important tool to judge the type of acid-base balance disorder, and provide clinicians with diagnostic reference, which have practical value and application prospect.

Objective To evaluate the effect of uterine-reserved in the pelvio floor reconstruction,and select the best surgery for patients. Methods Through the observation and follow-up for 14 cases of uterine-reserved (experimental group) and 17 cases of uterine-removed (control group), to compare the information during the surgery, postoperative recovery, and quality of life of the two groups. Results The operation time, blood loss, postoperative discharge time, antibiotics application time and hospitalization time in experimental group were significantly lower than those in control group(P < 0.05). The paruria, abdominal distention in experimental group [14%(2/14), 14%(2/14)] were significantly lower than those in control group [53% (9/17), 24% (4/17)] (P < 0.05), and sexual satisfaction was significantly higher in experimental group than that in control group [71% (10/14) vs. 47% (8/17)] (P < 0.05). There were no significant difference in pelvic pain, constipation of the two groups (P> 0.05). The POP-Q scores were normal after the operation both the two groups, each group beforeand after surgery compared the POP-Q score, were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusions Uterine-r eserved in the pelvic floor reconstruction can maintain the structural stability of the pelvic floor, and has the advantage of shorter operation time, less bleeding, more rapid recovery. Recent results are similar with hysterectomy, can reduce the risk of perioperative period to the elderly women.

Objective To evaluate the significance and role of ultrasound parameters in the female stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Methods The changes of the distance of bladder neck mobility,posterior urethra-vesical angle,urethral angle and residual urine volume before and after the operation of transobturator tension-free vaginal tape surgery (TVT-O) for 46 cases of female SUI (experimental group ) by ultrasound were studied,and compared with 43 normal women (control group). Results The experimental group before the operation had the greater distance of bladder neck mobility and posterior urethra-vesical angle [(14.46 ± 1.28) mm, (124.87 ±2.95)°] than the control group [(7.47 ±0.55) mm, (107.83 ±3.24)°] (P < 0.01 ), but the urethral angle [( 23.61 ± 2.28 )°] was smaller than the control group [(36.24 ±2.23 )°] (P < 0.01 ). There was no significant difference in the distance of bladder neck mobility, posterior urethra-vesical angle, urethral angle and residual urine volume between the experimental group after the operation and the control group (P > 0.05 ). The experimental group before the operation had the greater distance of bladder neck mobility and posterior urethra-vesieal angle than those after the operation [(7.84±0.76) mm, (108.74±3.63)°] (P <0.01), the urethral angle was smaller than that after the operation [(34.39 ± 3.46)°] (P < 0.01 ), but the residual urine volume had no significant difference (P > 0.05 ).Conclusions After the operation, there are some changes in the distance of bladder neck mobility, posterior urethra-vesical angle and urethral angle for the patients with female SUI,and these parameters can be restored the normal state,and have the relatively stable effect. The residual urine volume dosen't increase after the operation. Ultrasound has the advantage in objectively assessing the severity and recovery status after the operation exclusion of mental and psychological factors.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of 3.0 T contrast enhanced (CE) whole heart coronary MRA ( CE MRA ) using 32-channel coils with high acceleration factor. Methods Sixty patients with suspected coronary artery disease who were scheduled for coronary angiography (CAG)underwent CE CMRA at 3.0 T MRI scanner. A 32-channel receiver coil was used for data acquisition. For image acquisition, an ECG-triggered, navigator-gated, inversion-recovery prepared, segmented gradient-echo sequence was used with an acceleration factor of three in the phase-encoding direction using GRAPPA reconstruction. Gd-BOPTA (0.15 mmol/kg body weight) was intravenously administered at a rate of 0. 3 ml/s. The diagnostic accuracy in detecting significant stenoses ( ≥50% of vessel lumen) was evaluated using χ2 test with X-ray angiography as the reference. Results Whole-heart CE CMRA was successfully completed in 56 patients who were scheduled for CAG. The averaged imaging time was ( 6. 0 ± 1.3 ) min.3.0 T CE CMRA using 32 channel coils correctly identified significant CAD in 28 patients and correctly ruled out CAD in 23 patients. The sensitivity and specificity were 93. 3% and 88.5% respectively.Conclusion Combined with dedicated 32-channel coils, 3.0 T CE CMRA allows significant reduction in imaging speed and reduced dose of the contrast agent. These improvements resulted in substantially improved overall accuracy of CE CMRA in detecting coronary artery disease.

Objective To evaluate the value of contrast-enhanced whole-heart coronary magnetic resonance angiography ( CE CMRA ) at 3.0 T in the delineation of cardiac venous anatomy. Methods Contrast-enhanced whole-heart CMRA at 3.0T was performed in 43 consecutive subjects using ECG-triggered, navigator-gated, inversion-recovery prepared, segmented gradient-echo sequence with a 32-channel cardiac coil. The visibility of the coronary veins was graded visually using a 4-point scale.Continuous variable was expressed as (-x)±s. The paired student t test was used to evaluate the differences of the coronary sinus (CS) ostium diameter in anteroposterior and superoinferior directions. Results CMRA examination was successfully completed in 40 subjects with acquisition time of ( 6. 9 ± 1.8 ) min. The cardiac veins were finally evaluated in 38 of 40 (95.0%) subjects. The mean distance of the posterior vein of the left ventricle (PVLV) and the left marginal vein (LMV) to the CS ostium were (3.34 ± 0. 90) and (6. 12 ± 1.02) cm, respectively. The mean visibility scores of CS, posterior interventricular vein (PIV),PVLV, LMV, and anterior interventricular vein (AIV) were 4.0 ± 0.0, 3.4 ± 0. 5, 3.4 ± 0. 5, 3.0 ± 0. 8,and 3. 3 ± 0. 5, respectively. The diameter of the CS ostium in the superoinferior direction ( 1.13 ±0. 26) cm was larger than that in the anteroposterior direction (0. 82 ± 0. 19) cm (t = -4. 31 ,P <0. 05).Conclusion Contrast-enhanced whole-heart CMRA at 3.0 T can clearly depict the cardiac venous anatomy.

Objective:To study the value of shear wave elastography (SWE) combined with contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in diagnosing the invasiveness of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC), and analyze its risk factors.Methods:This study included 200 patients with pathologically confirmed PTMC who underwent surgery in Fenyang Hospital from January 2019 and June 2021. All were diagnosed with SWE and CEUS before surgery. The value of the two methods in diagnosing the invasiveness of PTMC was explored. The patients′ data were collected to screen the risk factors for the invasiveness of PTMC.Results:It was pathologically confirmed that among the 200 patients with PTMC, there were 112 cases with malignant nodules, 88 cases with benign nodules, 75 cases with cervical lymph node metastasis (including 71 cases with capsular invasion) and 125 cases without lymph node metastasis. CEUS parameters of malignant nodules were significantly higher than those of benign nodules ( P<0.05). The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of SWE combined with CEUS to diagnose capsular invasion were 94.66%, 85.60%, 89.00%, 79.77% and 96.39%, with high consistency with the pathological results ( Kappa>0.75). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that multiple foci, irregular shape, breakthrough capsule and small calcification were independent risk factors for the invasiveness of PTMC (VIF<3). The ROC curve results showed that the AUC of SWE combined with CEUS to diagnose capsular invasion was 0.772, and the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 73.91% and 80.56%. Conclusions:SWE combined with CEUS can significantly improve the diagnostic accuracy for the invasiveness of PTMC.

Objective The prognostic role of PD-L1 expression in surgically resected lung adenocarcinoma(ADC)remains controversial. The aim of present study was to investigate the prognostic value of PD-L1 combined with CD8 +TILs expression in pa-tients with resectable lung adenocarcinoma. Methods A total of 104 patients with lung adenocarcinoma who underwent radical resec-tion were enrolled at the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Harbin Medical University from January 2009 to December 2012. Immunohisto-chemistry was used to detect the expression of PD-L1 and CD8 +TILs in primary tumor specimens. Its clinical pathological factors and its relationship with prognosis were statistical analysis. Results The positive expression rate of PD -L1 in tumor cells was 38. 5% (40/104),and the positive rate of CD8 +TILs was 44. 2% (46/104). There was a significant correlation between the expres-sion of CD8 +TILs and TNM stages of patients with resectable ADC. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that low expression of PD-L1 and high expression of CD8 +TILs were significantly associated with disease -free survival ( DFS) and overall survival ( OS),and could be used as an independent predictors for predicting prognosis of patients with resectable ADC. Conclusion The ex-pression of PD-L1 and CD8 +TILs in the postoperative specimens can help to judge the prognosis of patients. This study has certain significance for immunotherapy of PD-1/PD-L1 pathway in patients with surgically resected ADC.
