Objective To evaluate left atrial function serial change after circumferential pulmonary vein ablation(CPVA)for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation using tissue Doppler echocardiography.Methods One hundred and eight patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation underwent CPVA guided by CARTO.Tissue Doppler imaging and conventional echocardiography were underwent 48 h before CPVA,48 h,1 month,3 month and 6 month after CPVA.Results One hundred and six patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation finished CPVA successfully.Compared tO 48 h pre-CPVA,left atrial diameter and volume decreased 48 h,1 month,3 month,6 month after CPVA,significant change were found at 3 month,6 month after CPVA(P<0.05).Left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD),left ventricular end-systolic diameter(LVESD).left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),mitral flow E revealed no significant change(P>0.05).Mitral flow A decreased significantly 48 h after CPVA(P<0.05),restored significantly after 3 month.Tissue Doppler parameter S'and E'revealed no significant change(P>0.05)through the period,A'decreased significantly 48 h after CPVA(P<0.05),restored significantlv after 1 month.Conclusions Left atrial diameter and volume decreased after CPVA.Left atrial active contraction function decreased shortly after CPVA(LA stunning),and restored progressively.

:To evaluate the impact of socioeconomic status,population mobility,prevention and control measures on the early-stage coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) development in major cities of China. : The rate of daily new confirmed COVID-19 cases in the 51 cities with the largest number of cumulative confirmed cases as of February 19,2020 (except those in Hubei province) were collected and analyzed using the time series cluster analysis. It was then assessed according to three aspects,that is, socioeconomic status,population mobility,and control measures for the pandemic. : According to the analysis on the 51 cities,4 development patterns of COVID-19 were obtained,including a high-incidence pattern (in Xinyu),a late high-incidence pattern (in Ganzi),a moderate incidence pattern (in Wenzhou and other 12 cities),and a low and stable incidence pattern (in Hangzhou and other 35 cities). Cities with different types and within the same type both had different scores on the three aspects. : There were relatively large difference on the COVID-19 development among different cities in China,possibly affected by socioeconomic status,population mobility and prevention and control measures that were taken. Therefore,a timely public health emergency response and travel restriction measures inside the city can interfere the development of the pandemic. Population flow from high risk area can largely affect the number of cumulative confirmed cases.

Objective To design a new method of posterior wall reconstruction for severely corn-minuted and obsolete fracture of the posterior wall of the aeetabulum. Methods (1) Biomechanical study (from two perspectives: the stability and the stress distribution on the femoral head and the acetabu-lure) : six fresh adult' s pelvis and femur specimens were collected and divided into experimental group ( consisted of the left sides) and control group ( consisted of the right sides). After the defects of the pos-terior wall were made, the defects were anatomically reconstructed with the harvested ilium by acetabular tridimentional memory fixation system (ATMFS) in the experimental group, whereas the acetabular frag-ments were repositioned to the defect sites and fixated by the plates and screws in the control group. Lon-gitudinal and latitudinal displacement, stability of the anatomically reconstructed posterior wall of the ace-tabulum, the fitness of femoral head to the acetabulum after anatomical reconstruction and mean and maxi-mum pressure of anterior wall, posterior and cupuh of the acetabuhm were analysed and compared. (2) Cinical study: The posterior wall defect on the harvested ilium piece was repaired with 3-directional loc-king of ATMFS in 10 male patients (at age of 16-50 years, mean 36.4 years) from January 2000 to June 2002. There were seven patients with flesh acetabular fractures and three with old acetabular fractures.The period from fracture to reconstruction for the patients with old fractures was 58-251 days ( 137.7 days an average). The patients were foUowed up for 5.8 years (average 5.2-7.1 years). Results (1) Biomechanical study showed no statistical difference upon stability and fitness of femoral head to acetabu-lum after reconstruction in experimental and control groups. (2) Clinical study: postoperative X-ray film showed no repeated displacement of the fracture and the patients began out-of-bed movement with weight bearing after 1.6 months (1.2-2.1 months). Heterotopic ossification was found in two patients, with no influence on the joint function. According to the elinieal ranking standard of Modified d' Aubigne and Postal, the excellence rate was 93%. Conclusions Anatomical reconstruction of posterior wall of the acetabulum by using serf ilium with ATMS has good stability and stress distribution of the femoral head and the reconstructed acetabulum in clinical application and offers a new method for treatment of severely comminuted and obsolete fracture of posterior wall of acetabulum.

Vaccine-related axillary nodal enlargement is a common benign condition that many mRNA vaccine receivers experience. However, a false attribution of axillary swelling to vaccination may result in delay in cancer care and potential disease progression, particularly in breast cancer patients presenting with ipsilateral axillary lymphadenopathy. We report the case of a 41-year-old pre-menopausal female who presented with suspicious axillary nodal enlargement and a right breast lump (triple-negative invasive ductal carcinoma) after recent administration of the second dose of Moderna mRNA coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine. On imaging, bilateral axillary lymph nodes were detected. The ipsilateral rightsided node was proven to be metastatic, whereas contralateral nodes were related to a recent mRNA COVID-19 vaccination. Right-sided lymph node had intense uptake (maximum standardized uptake value [SUVmax] = 5), while the contralateral reactive nodes were mildly avid (SUVmax = 2.6). On magnetic resonance imaging, the right-sided node revealed asymmetric cortical thickening and marked cortical enhancement as opposed to normalappearing left-sided nodes.

0.05 ). After once injection both observers considered the number of clearly recognized endocardial border segments increased significantly. The number evaluated by observers A increased from 2.68 ? 0.95 to 5.99 ? 0.10 while from 2.82 ? 1.03 to 5.99 ? 0.11 by observers B( P 0.05 ). The average contrast enhancement rate of LV endocardial border was 99.7 %. Perfluoropropane-albumin microsphere injection had no significant effection on vital signs such as blood prssure, heart rate and respiration. Electrocardiogram didn′t change markedly and the variance of the laboratory findings like blood and urine routine examination, hepatic and renal function was in normal range. Only one case( 0.33 %) had slight side-effects who suffered from mild nausea and diarrhea, which suggested the clinical safety of this contrast agent. Conclusions Perfluoropropane-albumin microsphere injection could enhance the resolution of LV endocardial borders and make the judgement of regional myocardial movement easier. It has little side-effects and will be appropriate for clinical use.
