PurposeTo analyze the far infrared thermography characteristics before and after surgery in patients with acoustic neuroma.Materials and Methods Thirty-two patients with acoustic neuroma were included as observation group and 40 normal healthy individuals as control group. Un-cooled thermal imaging system (ATIR-M301B) was used with working temperature of 20-25℃. Craniofacial infrared images were collected to analyze temperature differences among different detection zones.Results Far infrared thermography revealed that there were no obvious temperature differences between both sides of supraorbital region, endocanthion region, frontal region and buccal region in the control group (P>0.05). The temperature differences in bilaterally symmetrical parts of supraorbital region, endocanthion region, frontal region, buccal region were significantly higher in observation group (t=1.557, 1.714, 1.483 and 1.569,P<0.05). The craniofacial temperatures of 32 patients changed after operation, and the differences reduced in supraorbital region, endocanthion region, frontal region, and buccal region (t=2.655, 2.462, 2.897 and 4.465,P<0.05).Conclusion Far-infrared thermography inspection can detect abnormal temperature changes.

BACKGROUND: Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) promotor region has a pair of dinucleotide(guanosine thymidine, GT) repeats with a lengthy polymorphism, also named microsatellite polymorphism. Experiments in vitro have shown that we can indirectly learn about the level of gene transcription by measuring the number of GT repeats.OBJECTIVE: To investigate if an association exists between restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) and microsatellite polymorphism in HO-1 gene promoter.DESIGN: A case-control study based on the observation of the patients with coronary heart disease after undergoing coronary stenting.SETTING: Wards of the department of cardiology of a university hospital.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 118 patients were admitted from April 1996 to May 2002 at the Department of Cardiology of the First Hospital of Peking University who underwent successful coronary stenting. Inclusion criteria: The patients with coronary heart disease who underwent coronary stent implantation for more than 3 months now came to perform coronary angiography in follow-up. Exclusion criteria: Angiography showed that the stenosis of lumen in diameter in the patients with coronary heart disease was less than 50%and the follow-up in angiography was less than three months. There were 92males and 26 females aged(62±10) years old and the informed consents were obtained. The patients were divided into two groups according to the criteria stipulated by American Heart,Lung and Blood Association: in-stent restenosis(68 cases) and non-restenosis (50 cases).METHODS: DNA of the peripheral blood was isolated from the whole blood. The length of GT repeat was confirmed by PCR amplification and Spreadex Gel electrophoresis. Selected samples were sequenced with Sanger's method.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Microsatellite gene frequency of HO-1promoter and its relationship with restenosis RESULTS: Patients with GT repeats <25 GT in the HO-1 gene promoter on either allele had significantly less often restenosis than patients without (47.5% vs. 68.4% ,P<0.05). After controlling some possible confound ing factorsfor coronary heart diseases, multivariate analysis indicated that still there was a significant difference between the two groups in restenosis rate(odd ratio 0. 418,95% CI: 0. 197 to 0. 887,P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The present study indicated that short(GT) n repeats of HO-1 gene promoter is associated with reduced post-PCI restenosis, which suggests the genetic contribution to in-stent restenosis after stent implantation. It may have important meanings to prevent the occurrence of restenosis.

Objective:To develop a novel posterior circulation score (PCS) based on pretreatment diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) for predicting futile recanalization (FR) of acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO) after endovascular therapy (EVT).Methods:A prospectively registered consecutive cohort of BAO patients treated with EVT in Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University during a six-year period was reviewed. This novel DWI-based PCS (DWI-PCS) was calculated according to the characteristics of acute infarction at four sites (pons, midbrain, thalamus and cerebellum), with a normal score of 0 point and a full score of 16 points. FR was defined as the occurrence of poor outcome (modified Rankin Scale score>3) at 90 days despite successful recanalization (modified Thrombolysis In Cerebral Infarction ≥ 2b) at final angiogram after EVT. The independent association of DWI-PCS with FR was evaluated by multivariable Logistic regression, and the predictive discrimination of DWI-PCS was measured by the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Additionally, the effects of DWI-PCS on FR in different subgroups stratified by age, time window, stroke severity and etiology were explored.Results:Of 109 patients in this study, 48 (44.0%) suffered from FR. The multivariable Logistic analysis showed that DWI-PCS was significantly associated with FR (adjusted OR=1.31, 95% CI 1.07-1.62, P=0.01). The ROC curve analysis demonstrated that the area under the curve of DWI-PCS for predicting FR was 0.74 (95% CI 0.65-0.83), and the optimal cut-off value was ≥ 3 points (sensitivity 0.75, specificity 0.66, accuracy 0.70). Finally, the effects of DWI-PCS on FR were not found to be different across all subgroups ( P>0.10 for all interactions). Conclusions:The novel DWI-PCS may be a valid and reliable predictor of FR in BAO patients treated with EVT. Nevertheless, external validation with blinded outcome is still needed to confirm its performance before clinical application.
