ObjectiveTo explore the influence of the CT scanning mode on the gross tumor volume (GTV) delineation of solitary pulmonary lesion (SPL),and to evaluate the feasibility of the spiral CT scan in CT simulation.Methods Sixteen patients with SPL underwent axial scan,spiral scan during free breathing.Compare the target position,volume between GTVS and GTVA (paired t-test).The matching index (MI) between GTVS and GTVA and correlations between MI and the tumor volume were calculated ( bivariate correlation analysis).ResultsGTVS and GTVA volume was 8.95 cm3 and 9.38 cm3 ( t =0.43,P =0.667),respectively.The centroid position for GTVS and GTVA in x,y and z axises were 6.80 cm and 6.81 cm (t =0.27,P =0.794),36.19 cm and 36.05 cm (t =0.37,P =0.717),and 4.99 cm and 4.96cm (t =0.65,P =0.526),respectively.There were also no statistically significant difference in the distance between the centroidal position and origin of coordinates for GTVS and GTVA (38.31 cm∶ 38.23 cm,t =0.47,P =0.646 ).MI between GTVS and GTVA was 0.36 ( range 0-0.77 ),correlated with the tumor volume (r =0.587,P =0.017).ConclusionsThere was no significant difference between the axial scan and spiral scan in the GTV volume and position for SPL,but MI between GTVS and GTVA were small.A correlation was found for the MI between GTVS and GTVA with the tumor volume.Spiral CT scan was more timesaving,and was feasible in CT simulation scan.

OBJECTIVE:To compare the preventive effects and safety of aspirin and clopodogrel respectively used for vascular restenosis after coronary intimal striping with coronary artery bypass grafting. METHODS:110 patients with coronary atherosclerot-ic heart disease were divided into aspirin group (55 cases) and clopodogrel group (55 cases). All patients intravenously mi-cro-pumped Nitroglycerin injection 10 mg+5% Glucose injection totally 20 mL for maintaining 48-72 h after coronary intimal strip-ing with coronary artery bypass grafting,intravenously pumped Dopamine hydrochloride injection 1-5 μg/kg if necessary. Unplug the endotracheal tube after surgery,patients received Cefuroxime sodium for injection 1.5 g adding into Sterile water for injection 50 mL,intravenous injection,3 times a day,for 2-3 d. Meanwhile,patients were orally given Rosuvastatin calcium tablet 10 mg 30 min after daily dinner,8-week was a course,for 3 courses. Based on it,aspirin group received Aspirin enteric-coated tablet with initial dose of 300 mg,once a day,orally taking 100 mg from the second day,once a day,for 6 months;clopodogrel group received Clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate tablet with initial dose of 300 mg,once a day,orally taking 75 mg from the second day, once a day,for 6 months. Graft patency rate,and platelet aggregation rate,platelet aggregation compliance rate,fibrinogen(Fg), D-dimer (D-D),platelet count (PLT),tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) before and after treatment,and the incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS:There were no significant differences in the graft patency rate and inci-dence of adverse reactions in 2 groups (P>0.05). Before treatment,there were no significant differences in platelet aggregation rate,platelet aggregation compliance rate,Fg,D-D,PLT and t-PA in 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,platelet aggregation rate,Fg and D-D level in 2 groups were significantly lower than before,platelet aggregation compliance rate,PLT and t-PA level were significantly higher than before,with statistical significance(P<0.05),while there were no significant differences between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Based on conventional treatment,both aspirin and clopidogrel used for coronary intimal strip-ing with coronary artery bypass grafting can inhibit platelet aggregation,reduce thrombosis,maintain vascular patency and prevent vascular restenosis,with good safety.

Objective:To investigate the effect of regional leptomeningeal collateral circulation (rLMC) score based on CT angiography (CTA) and onset-to-reperfusion time (OTR) on the outcome after endovascular treatment (EVT) in patients with anterior circulation acute large vessel occlusive stroke (ACA-LVOS).Methods:Patients with ACA-LVOS underwent EVT in the Department of Neurology, the Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University from July 2017 to July 2023 were included retrospectively. The rLMC score 0-10 was defined as poor collateral circulation, and 11-20 were defined as good collateral circulation. At 90 days after EVT, the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used to evaluate the outcome. A score of 0-2 was defined as a good outcome and 3-6 were defined as a poor outcome. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent influencing factors of the outcome after EVT. Results:A total of 144 patients with ACA-LVOS underwent EVT were enrolled, including 78 males (54.2%), median aged 73 years. The median baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was 16, the median baseline Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) was 9, and the median OTR was 330.5 minutes. Eighty patients (55.6%) had good collateral circulation, 63 (43.8%) had poor outcome, including 13 deaths. Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in hypertension, previous stroke history, smoking, triglycerides, baseline NIHSS score, baseline ASPECTS, OTR, and collateral circulation status between the good outcome group and the poor outcome group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that good collateral circulation (odds ratio [ OR] 0.223, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 0.077-0.643; P=0.005) was an independent predictor of good outcome. In the poor collateral circulation group, longer OTR was an independent predictor of poor outcome ( OR 1.020, 95% CI 1.008-1.032; P=0.001). In the good collateral circulation group, longer OTR was not an independent risk factor for poor outcome ( OR 1.005, 95% CI 1.000-1.010; P=0.062). Conclusion:rLMC score based on CTA and OTR are the independent predictors of the outcome after EVT in patients with ACA-LVOS.

Morita therapy has been bom for more than 100 years.Inpatient Morita therapy is highly oper-able and easy to master.It can improve many refractory neuroses through four-stage treatment.But more neuroses are treated in outpatient clinics,and Morita therapy cannot be used in hospitalized patients.Therefore,the formula-tion of expert opinions on outpatient operations is particularly important.This paper is based on domestic and for-eign references,and after many discussions by domestic Morita therapy experts,and then drew up the first version of the expert opinions on operation of outpatient Morita therapy.Meanwhile the operation rule of Morita therapy in three stages of outpatient treatment was formulated:in the etiological analysis stage,under the theoretical guidance of Morita therapy,analyze the pathogenic factors,to improve treatment compliance and reduce resistance;during the operating stage,guide patients to engage in constructive and meaningful actions,realizing the achievement of letting nature take its course principle;in the cultivating character and enriching life stage,pay attention to positive infor-mation,expanding the scope and content of actions,improving the ability to adapt to complex life,and preventing recurrence caused by insufficient abilities.It will lay a foundation for the promotion of Morita therapy in domestic outpatient clinics,so that more patients with neurosis and other psychological diseases could receive characteristic Morita therapy treatment in outpatient clinics.
