Objective To investigate the charateristics and prognostic value of computed tomography (CT) of retropharyngeal lymphadenopathy (RLN) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).Methods From 1991 to 2006, CT images were analyzed for 588 patients with histologically proven NPC treated with radiation therapy in our hospital.The survival rate was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier method.Results RLN metastases were presented in 392 patients, with unilateral side in 254 patients and bilateral sides in 138 patients.The 5-year distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) rate of patients with and without RLN metastasis was 66.6% and78.6%(χ2 = 10.78,P=0.005) ,with 69.7% and 62.2%(χ2 =2.31,P=0.129) for patients with unilateral and bilateral sides involvement.The DMFS rate was similar between the mild and moderate enhancement of RLN (67.6% and 58.9% ,χ2=2.77,P =0.096).The survival rate of RLN with homogeneous density was better than heterogeneous density (71.5%, 53.3% and 32.5%,respectively, χ2= 10.51, P = 0.001, χ2= 24.28, P = 0.000).The survival rate of patients with well boarded RLN was better than those with ill boarded RLN and obviously adjacent tissue involvement (65.5%, 51.8%and 50.0% , χ2 =8.20,P=0.004, χ2 =5.31 ,P=0.021).Conclusions The prognosis is poor with RLN metastasis, lymph node enhancement, heterogeneous density in nodes and ill boarded RLN.

Objective To investigate the value of real-time three-dimensional echocardiography(RT-3DE) timing-excursion parametric index and 17 segment time-volume curves index in patients with leftventricular noncompaction(LVNC). Methods Ten patients with LVNC (proven by MRI) ,twenty subjects with normal LV function were examined by Philips iE33 with X3-1 probe. Results Parameter index (including Tmsv 16-SD,Tmsv 12-SD,Tmsv 6-SD,Tmsv 16-Dif,Tmsv 12-Dif,Tmsv 6-Dif,Tmsv 16-SD%,Tmsv 12-SD%, Tmsv 6-SD%, Tmsv 16-Dif%, Tmsv 12-Dif%, Tmsv 6-Dif%) of 17 segment time to minimal systolic volume was significantly higher in patients with LVNC than that in subjects with normal LV function( all P<0.05). Average and minimum value of excursion was significantly lower in patients with LVNC than that in subjects with normal LV function ( P<0.05). Conclusions RT-3DE with timeexcursion parameters and 17 segment of time- volume curve parameters can rapidly and accurately evaluate left ventricular systolic synchrony in patients with LVNC.

Objective To investigate the pathological changes and pathogenesis of the MELAS syndrome (mitochondrial encephalopathy lactic acidosis strok-like episodes ) by using the method of immunohistochemical staining in the brain biopsy specimens with anti-mitochondrial antibody (AMA).Methods We performed immunohistochemical staining in 3 confirmed MELAS patients' paraffin-imbed brain biopsy specimens.Results Small vessel proliferation and the uneven thickness of the wall were found in the 3 MELAS patients.A lot of brown deposits was shown in the wall of small vessels and also noted in neurons.Conclusions The main pathological change in the MELAS brain biopsy immunohistochemical staining with AMA was the small vessel proliferation,indicating that abnormal mitochondria accumulated in the vascular smooth muscle,endothelial cell and neurons of the lesion sites.This finding was consistent with the electron microscopic discovery and valuable for the diagnosis of MELAS.

Objective To evaluate the global and segmental (inflow,body and outflow) systolic functions of right ventricle in end-stage renal failure (ESRF) patients by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography(RT-3DE) and four-dimensional right ventricle quantitative analysis (4D-RVQ) and to reveal the long-term impact of renal insufficiency on right ventricular systolic function.Methods RT-3DE was performed in 48 ESRF patients and 26 healthy individuals (control group).Images were acquired and analysed off-line in TomTec 4D-RVQ station.The parameters of RV global and segmental systolic functions,including RV global and segmental end-diastolic volume (EDV),end-systolic volume(ESV),stroke volume(SV),ejection fraction(EF),the time to minimum systolic volume(T-msv) were obtained.All the variables were standardized by body surface area (BSA) or heart rate (HR).Results ① In the ESRF group,EDV,SV and EF of body compartment were significantly higher than those of the controls[EDV:(8.5±3.4)ml/m2 vs (6.4± 1.7)ml/m2,P =0.002;SV:(4.5 ± 1.7)ml/m2 vs (2.7±0.9)ml/m2,P =0.0037;EF:(45.4 ± 11.5)% vs (41.1 ± 7.1)%,P =0.0489],and so were EDV,SV of inflow compartment [EDV:(19.6± 1.0)ml/m2 vs (16.5±0.9)ml/m2,P =0.0438;SV:(12.3±4.6)ml/m2 vs (10.1±3.2) ml/m2,P =0.0433].②Compared with the control group,the global and segmental T-msv were all delayed obviously in the ESRF group (P < 0.001).③The percentage of SV of body compartment accounting for the global SV significantly increased in the ESRF group [(19.5 ± 7.3)% vs (15.5 ± 5.5)%,P =0.0222],while that of outflow compartment reduced significantly [(20.3 ± 7.0)% vs (26.8 ± 8.2)%,P =0.0005].Conclusions The global and segmental systolic functions of right ventricle were impaired in ESRF patients,especially in the body compartment.The RT-3DE and 4D-RVQ are helpful technologies in the evaluation and follow-up of right ventricular systolic function in patients with renal failure.

ObjectiveTo investigate a cluster epidemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infections in a school in Longchuan County, Yunnan Province, and further guide the prevention and control of COVID-19 in the border area. MethodsAccording to the Protocol on Prevention and Control of Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia (8th Edition), an epidemiological investigation was performed on all COVID-19 cases to collect the information on demographics, onset, diagnosis and treatment, prognosis, and epidemiological history. Close contacts were also tracked to determine the transmission chains. ResultsIn this cluster epidemic, a total of 37 COVID-19 cases were identified, including 32 females and 5 males aged from 13 to 25 years, who were 35 students and 2 teachers. The student cases were found in four classes of two grades. Furthermore, gene sequencing showed that all cases had been infected with delta variants, belonging to the same transmission chain that was not related to the previous epidemics in Dehong Prefecture. In additionally, a total of 2 127 close contacts were found. After 21 days of centralized quarantine for medical observation, all close contacts tested negative for SARS-CoV-2. In the COVID-19 cases, only one case remained positive for SARS-CoV-2, while the other 36 cases were successfully treated and became negative. ConclusionThis school cluster is caused by the border villagers who contacted the water polluted with SARS-CoV-2. It warrants more strict management of students from border villages and their belongings to prevent similar epidemics in school settings.

Objective To investigate the effects of glycine on the expression of HSP70 and TNF-α mRNA in the liver tissue of rats with traumatic shock and explore the protective mechanism of glycine a-gainst secondary liver injury after traumatic shock. Methods The traumatic shock model was established and 120 Wistar rats were divided randomly into three groups: treatment group, shock group and control group. At the beginning of resuscitation, the rats in the treatment were injected with 0.5 ml isotonic saline containing 100 mg/kg glycine, those rats in the shock group were injected only with 0.5 ml isotonic saline. The rats in three groups were killed at 3, 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours after resuscitation respectively. The ex-pression of HSP70 and TNF-α mRNA in the liver tissue were detected by RT-PCR, pathological changes were observed and serum ALT and AST were measured. Results The expressions of HSP70 and TNF-α mRNA in the liver tissue of rats in the shock group began to increase at 3 hours and both reached the peak value at 6 hours after resuscitation, but the expression of HSP70 mRNA in the treatment group reached the peak value at 12 hours after resuscitation. Compared with the control group, the expression of HSP70 mR-NA in the treatment group increased significantly and that of TNF-α mRNA decreased siganicantly, serum ALT and AST decreased and pathological damage was relieved significantly (all P < 0.05). Conclusion By enhancing the expression of HSP70 mRNA and decreasing the expression of TNF-α mRNA, glycine may play a protective role against the secondary damage of liver after traumatic shock.
