Objective To investigate the impact on the endothelial cell function and renal blood flow through effective treatment for elderly patients with hypertension. Methods 64 cases of elderly hypertensive patients over 70years old with effective treatment, according to pre-treatment blood pressure, were divided into two groups: hyptension level-2 group(30cases) and hypertension level-3 group(34cases), and 30 cases of elderly people with health physical examination during the same period were setlected as the control group. Endothelial cell function was detected, including the endothelin-1 (ET-1)、 nitrous oxide (NO), thromboxane B2 (TXB2)、 6-keto-prostaglandinF1α (6-K-PDGF1α) in plasma. Renal blood flow was explored by color doppler ultrasonic instrument ,involving peak velocity in systole(PSV) and lowest velocity in end-diastole(EDV) of renal arteries, segmental arteries and interlobar arteries.After indicators had reached the standard 1 month in the hypertension level-2 and hypertension leve1-3 patients with effective antihypertensive therapy, the difference of ET-1, NO, TXB2,6-k-PGF1o and PSV, EDV among the three groups were compared. Results The differences were statistically significant in ET-1, NO, TXB2,6-k-PGF1α, PSV and EDV before treatment among three groups (P ＜ 0.05). After blood pressure treated had reached the standard 1 month,indicators were no statistically meaningful difference among the three groups (P ＞ 0.05). Conclusion After effective clinical treatments, the endothelial cell function and renal blood flow of the elderly hypertensive patients can be improved. At the same time, to delay renal damage in elderly patients with hypertension provide a theoretical basis.

Objective To investigate the application of three stages enhanced scan of multi-slice spiral CT for the characteristic analysis on the wall and lumen of colorectal mucous adenocarcinoma.Methods 51 patients with colorectal mucinous adenocarcinoma who had complete pathologic diagnosis were studied.GE Discovery CT 750HD scanner was used for line scan,arterial and portal venous phase scan,and delayed scan.The lesions of intestinal wall,enteric cavity and proximal normal lumen were observed by line scan and enhanced scan,and the related quantitative value and CT value were observed.Results The intestinal wall was uneven annular thickening or hemispherical thickening.The thickening intestinal wall showed lobular changes around the inner margin,outer margin,or without lobular changes.The hierarchical sign and cystoids sign were observed with three layers or two layers structure after enhanced scan.Metastases of the larger lymph node,liver,ovaries were characterized similar to cyst.According to the form,the stenosis was divided into natural streamlined,irregular fixed,and irregular constrictive types.The proximal normal intestinal canal of the lesion showed occlusion,mild expansion or severe expansion.Conclusions Walls of colorectal mucous adenocarcinoma was uneven annular thickening or hemispherical thickening,in which calcification was found,and there was features of similar to layer and cyst after enhancement.The stiff intestinal wall appeared less,and the proximal bowel obstruction was rare.Therefore,depend on these characteristics,the diagnosis of colorectal mucous adenocarcinoma can be achieved.

Objective To explore the HRCT characteristics of solitary pure bronchioloalveolar carcinoma.Methods Compared with postop pathological appearance,21 patients with 22 affections tumors which were pathologically confirmed pure bronchioloalveolar carcinoma were retrospectively reviewed.Results the histopathological results prior to surgery showed that 20 patients with 21 affections tumors were non-mucilaginous BAC and 1 patient was mucilaginous BAC.Noguchi's classification:Type A 3 cases,Type B 12 cases,Type C 5 cases.(Mucilaginous BAC was not classified)Stage classification:There were 21 cases with stage ⅠA,the maximum tumor diameter was from 0.3 to 3.0 mm (average diameter 1.3 mm).No case showed pleura metastasis,vessel invasion and lymphaticmetastasis.Appearance of HRCT:according to the amount of GGO,all affections were divided into 4 groups.A group(5/22),B group(7/22),C group(7/22),D group(3/22).There were 11 cases with pleura traction,5 cases with clear boundary and trimmed edges and other 17 cases were contradistinction.There were 21 cases with blood vessel or bronchus shadow.Conclusion HRCT can show scan can provide details of structure characteristics of BAC's pathological histology,so it plays an important role in prediction of pathological infiltration of tumor cells and prognosis assessment.

Objective to investigate the relationship between the size of ostium secondary atrial septal defect (ASD) and the pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) in children less than 5 years of age. Methods During the period from April 2000 to January 2011, a total of 189 child patients less than 5 years of age with ostium secondary ASD were admitted to General Hospital of Shenyang Military Command. Under general anaesthesia with ketamine cardiac catheterization was performed, PAP was measured, and percutaneous occlusion of ASD was carried out in all patients. The clinical indexes, including sex, age, body height, body weight, body surface area, diameter of ASD defect, heart- to- thorax ratio, the systolic, diastolic and mean pressure of the pulmonary artery, etc. were determined. The patients were followed up for one year and postoperative cardiac ultrasonography was performed to check the results. The patients were divided into groups according to the defect size. Results The 189 patients consisted of 77 males and 112 females with a male-to-female ratio of 1 ∶ 1.5. The mean age was (4.1 ± 0.9) years old, ranging from 2 to 5 years old. The mean weight was (17.2 ± 3.6) kg, ranging from 10.0 to 30.0 kg. The mean height was (104.9 ± 9.2) cm, ranging from 77 to 135 cm. The mean body surface area (BSA) was (0.71 ± 0.10) m2, ranging from 0.46 to 1.02 m2. The mean size of ASD was (12.6 ± 4.8) mm, ranging from 5 to 29 mm. The mean size of ASD, which was modified by BSA, was (18.0 ± 7.0) mm/m2, ranging from 5.3 to 38.9 mm/m2. The mean systolic PAP was (41.1 ± 8.9) mmHg with a range of 15 - 67 mmHg. The mean diastolic PAP was (16.8 ± 6.5) mmHg with a range of 3 - 45 mmHg. The mean PAP was (24.9 ± 6.7) mmHg with a range of 12 - 48 mmHg. One hundred and fifty- nine patients (89.4%) had pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) which was determined by right heart catheterization, but no patient showed PAH when the pulmonary arterial pressure was measured by echocardiography before the procedure as well as 1, 3, 6, 12 months after the procedure. No definite correlation existed between the size of ASD and the pulmonary artery pressure (P > 0.05). Conclusion Pulmonary artery pressure measured by right heart catheterization has no definite correlation with the size of ASD in children less than 5 years of age. Pulmonary artery pressure obtained from right heart catheterization is higher than that determined by cardiac ultrasonography, which may be caused by the effect of ketamine when general anaesthesia is used in performing right heart catheterization.

ObjectiveTo analyze the imageology appearance and clinical characteristics of primary squamous cell carcinoma of the breast.MethodsFeatures of MRI(4 patients)and B-type ultrasonic inspection(5 patients)of nine patients with primary squamous cell carcinoma of the breast pathologically confirmed were retrospectively reviewed. Compared with postoperative pathological appearance, the correlation between imageology appearance and clinical, pathological characteristics was analyzed. ResultsImageology appearance:In MRI:The tumor diameter was around 50 mm;The tumors were located at nearby papillae;There were two patients with pachymenia at the same time;The tumor margin was unclear,which has clear tumor wall structure and heterogeneous pachymenia,and without corpora mammillaria shadow which was toward interior;The tumors were low signal on T1WI and partially high signal on T2WI;The image with enhancement scanning showed that parenchymatous part of tumor were enhanced,while enhancements were not obviously at the centre of tumor with necrosis.In B-type ultrasonic inspection:The average diameter of tumors was around 40 mm, there were NT=0 mm in 4 cases. NT=19 mum in 1 case. The tumors presented as shape of clump or sublobe,which had unclear margin and high echoic region behind the tumor.There were also normal echo at the tumor lateral in 2 cases at the same time,and 4 cases showed blood supply was abundant, and 2 cases showed that there were colliquation and necrosis which had cystic hypoechoic signal at the tumor interior.MMG:There were class-4 in 2 cases,and Class-3 in 1 case.The tumor with little calcification which had no obvious veining showed uniformly high densities.All patients were treated with entire mastectomy. The patho-staging showed 3 cases were in ⅢB, 1 case was Ⅱ B, and 1 case was in Ⅱ A. Theresults of ER and PR with all patients were negative by using immunohistochemistry. 3 cases were also treated with chemotherapy after surgery; other organs (brain and lung) were found metabasis by follow-up visit of post-operation.ConclusionFor patients with primary squamous cell carcinoma of the breast,MMG inspection before surgery did not have specific imageology characteristics, while MRI has. The combination of MRI, B-type ultrasonic inspection and CNB can detect pathologic types and invasive circumscription,so it may have great applications for choose of surgery style and directions of therapy in the future.

Objective To investigate the risk factors and early diagnosis of the severe thrombocytopenia complicating transcatheter ccclusion of patent ductus arteriosus ( PDA ) . Methods Between February, 2011 and May, 2015, 80 patients with patent ductus arteriosus underwent percutaneous intervention occlusion were studied. Results Average age were ( 17. 5 ± 17. 1 ) years, 63 were females (78. 8%), mean weight were (35. 6 ± 20. 2)kg (from 6. 0 to 75. 0 kg), mean body surface area (BSA) were (1. 09 ±0. 44) m2(from 0. 32 to 1. 91 m2). A bolus of heparin calcium (80 U/kg) was administered by intravenous injection. The mean diameters of patent ductus arteriosus were 4 mm (from 2 to 18 mm), and the mean diameters of occluders were 12 mm (from 6 to 30 mm). 14 patients were found to have severe thrombocytopenia (PLT count﹤100 × 109/L). The reduction rate of platelet in 12 of 14 patients was more than 19%. The diameters of all occluders were equal to or more than 14 mm, the mean diameters of patent ductus arteriosus were 10 mm ( from 6 to 18 mm) and the mean diameters of occluders were 18 mm ( from 14 to 30 mm). All the 14 patients started to present progressive decrease in PLT count since the second day post procedure. Taking the selected occluder diameter greater than 14 mm as cut-off points in diagnosis of severe thrombocytopenia, the sensitivity was 100%, specificity was 68%, the positive predictive value was 40%, and the negative predictive value was 100%. Combined with the postprocedural second day complete blood count analysis and the platelet count decreased by 10% as cut-off points in diagnosis of severe thrombocytopenia patients, the sensitivity was 93%, specificity was 67%, the positive predictive value was 65%, the negative predictive value was 93% . If taking the platelet count decreased by 7% on second day as cut-off points in diagnosis of severe thrombocytopenia patients, the sensitivity was 100%, specificity was 57%, the positive predictive value was 61%, the negative predictive value was 100% . Logistic regression analysis discovered that risk factors of severe thrombocytopenia after PDA are procedural platelet count and occluder diameter. Conclusions The risk factors of severe thrombocytopenia complicating transcatheter ccclusion of patent ductus arteriosus were the procedural reduction of platelet count and big occluder diameter. Patients with PDA who were inplanted with occluders equal to or bigger than 14 mm should retest the numbers of platelet on the second day after procedure and retest on third day if the numbers reduce on the second day, which may help in the prediction of severe thrombocytopenia.
