With the wide application of contrast media in modem medicine,contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) has attracted more clinical attention.Renal ischemia and renal tubular toxicity have been considered to be the pathogenesis of CIN.The most promising biomarkers,except for serum creatinine,include neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL),cystatin C (Cys C),kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1),urine N-acetyl beta-D amino glucosidase (NAG) and micro molecular RNA (microRNA).Before use of contrast media for angiography,both the patient's own risk factors and the contrast-associated risk factors should be carefully evaluated.The patient's own risk factors include basic renal function,diabetes,anemia,homocysteine,etc.The contrast-associated risk factors include the osmotic pressure,viscosity,dosage,application frequency of the used contrast agent,etc.At present,hydration therapy is still the main method for CIN,and other therapeutic methods include medication,such as statins,vasodilators,antioxidants,traditional Chinese medicine,etc.,and blood purification therapy.This paper aims to make a brief summary about the research progress in CIN,focusing on its diagnosis,pathogenesis,risk factors and preventive measures.

Objective:To discuss the characteristics of ultrasound diagnosis of optic disc capillary hemangioma.Methods:The study analyzed retrospectively 7 cases of optic disc capillary hemangioma diagnosed in the Beijing Tongren Hospital from 2015 to 2018. The size, morphology, internal echo, and secondary changes of the lesion were analyzed during ultrasound examination.Color Doppler flow imaging was used to check the blood flow in the lesion.Results:Pre-optic disc occupying lesions could be detected in the ultrasound images of the 7 cases. Lesion size: average base diameters (5.39±1.90)mm×(4.79±1.28)mm, average height (3.61±1.37)mm. Lesion morphology: 5 cases were round, and 2 cases were irregular. Echo within the lesion: 3 cases had medium echo inside the lesion, and 4 cases had high echo inside the lesion. Internal echo characteristics: 5 cases had uniform echo, and 2 cases had uneven echo. Secondary changes: 6 cases had secondary retinal detachment and vitreous opacity, and 1 cases was accompanied by retinal hemangioma in other parts. In all cases, blood flow signals could be detected inside the space-occupying lesions, which were in the form of branches, stripes or spots, and the blood flow spectrum showed a parallel spectrum of arteries and veins.Conclusions:Ultrasound examination of optic disc capillary hemangioma has certain characteristics, which can provide a valuable follow-up basis for clinical diagnosis.

Objective:To compare the agreement of biometric parameters measured by a new swept-source optical coherence tomography IOLMaster 700 and a new Scheimpflug imaging combined with partial coherence interferometry biometer Pentacam AXL in cataractous eyes.Methods:A cross-sectional study was performed.A total of 146 eyes from 76 cataract patients were enrolled in Beijing Tongren Eye Center from 2 to 11 in January 2018, including 69 eyes in 36 males and 77 eyes in 40 females, the age ranged from 35 to 88 years, the mean age was (64.52±11.36) years.Axial length (AL), mean keratometry (Km), anterior chamber depth (ACD), central corneal thickness (CCT) and white-to-white (WTW) were measured with IOLMaster 700 and Pentacam AXL, respectively.The differences and correlations of the biometry parameters between the two devices were assessed.Bland-Altman method was used to evaluate the agreement of these parameters between the two devices and the 95% limits of agreement was calculated.This study adhered to the tenets of the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by an Ethics Committee of Beijing Tongren Hospital (TRECKY2018-049).Results:The mean values of the AL measured by IOLMaster 700 and Pentacam AXL were (24.03±1.72)mm and (23.98±1.73)mm, Km were (44.04±1.71)D and (43.88±1.72)D, ACD were (3.24±0.47)mm and (3.28±0.47)mm, WTW were (11.82±0.51)mm and (11.49±0.49)mm, respectively.Compared with the values in Pentacam AXL, the AL, Km and WTW were larger while ACD was smaller in IOLMaster 700 with significant differences ( t=18.06, 8.94, 23.83, -15.36, all at P<0.01). The mean CCT values from the IOLMaster 700 and Pentacam AXL were (534.18±30.12)μm and (533.42±28.71)μm, respectively, with no significant difference ( t=1.04, P=0.30). The AL, Km, ACD, CCT and WTW from IOLMaster 700 were highly correlated with those from Pentacam AXL ( r=0.999, 0.992, 0.998, 0.956, 0.942; all at P<0.01). The Bland Altman analysis showed that the 95% limits of agreement of AL, Km, ACD, CCT and WTW were-0.02-0.11 mm, -0.27-0.59 D, -0.10-0.02 mm, -16.5-18.1 μm and 0.00-0.67 mm. Conclusions:IOLMaster 700 and Pentacam AXL have good agreements and narrow 95% limits of agreement in the measurements of AL, ACD, CCT, which can be clinically interchangeable.The 95% limits of agreement of WTW and Km are out of the clinically acceptable range, so the WTW and Km measured by the two devices are not interchangeable.

Objective:To analyze the perfusion characteristics of choroidal metastasis using contrast-enhanced ultrasound, and compare with choroidal hemangioma.Methods:This was a retrospective study.From January 2016 to February 2018 in Beijing Tongren Hospital, a total of 21 eyes from 21 patients who were clinically diagnosed as choroidal metastasis were included as the choroidal metastasis group and 46 eyes from 46 patients who were diagnosed as choroidal hemangioma during the same period were included as the choroidal hemangioma group. All patients underwent contrast-enhanced ultrasound examination, and Sonoliver was used to obtain the data on quantitative parameters of the tumor and the adjacent normal orbital tissues, including maximum of intensity (IMAX), rise time (RT), time to peak (TTP), and mean transit time (mTT). The quantitative parameters between choroidal metastasis and normal orbital tissues were compared. And the quantitative parameters between choroidal metastasis and choroidal hemangioma were compared. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to evaluate the diagnostic performance.Results:The IMAX of choroidal metastasis was significantly higher than that of normal orbital tissues, while RT, TTP and mTT were significantly shorter than these of normal orbital tissues (all P<0.01). The IMAX of choroidal metastasis was lower than that of choroidal hemangioma, and RT, TTP and mTT were shorter than choroidal hemangioma (all P<0.01). The ROC curve analysis showed that area under curves of the IMAX, RT, TTP and mTT were 0.775 (95% CI=0.666-0.884), 0.970 (95% CI=0.896-0.996), 0.729 (95% CI=0.607-0.831) and 0.992 (95% CI=0.931-1.000) respectively. The sensitivities were 71.7%, 95.7%, 76.1% and 95.7%, and the specificities were 85.7%, 90.5%, 66.7% and 95.2%, respectively. Conclusions:Contrast-enhanced ultrasound can reflect the differences in perfusion characteristics between choroidal metastasis and choroidal hemangioma. RT and mTT are useful parameters in differential diagnosis between the two types of tumors.

Objective To explore the value of conventional ultrasound, color Doppler ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in the diagnosis of sub-retinal hemorrhage. Methods A total of 26 patients with sub-retinal hemorrhage were examined by conventional ultrasound, color Doppler ultrasound and CEUS. The results of medical history, ultrasound, color Doppler ultrasound and CEUS were recorded and analyzed.And the difference of the detection rate between the three methods was analyzed by χ2test. Results The mean fundus diameter of the sub-retinal hemorrhage was (5.31±2.21) mm, and the mean height was (1.97±0.98) mm. In twenty-two eyes (84.6%) the lesions were located in the posterior pole of the ocular wall, while in two eyes (7.7%) the lesions were located in the equator and peripheral of the ocular wall. Seven eyes (26.9%) had dome-shaped mass, ten eyes (38.5%) had flat-shaped mass, and nine eyes (34.9%) had irregular-shaped mass. The echogenecity of the lesions was homogeneous in twelve eyes (46.2%), and heterogeneous in fourteen eyes (53.8%). The lesions showed clear margin in seventeen eyes (65.4%). Blood flow signals can be detected in twenty-three eyes (88.5%). The surface of the lesions was filled by contrast-medium in all cases. The detection rate of sub-retinal hemorrhage with color Doppler and contrast-enhanced ultrasound was higher than that of conventional ultrasound, and the difference was statistically significant. Conclusion Color Doppler ultrasonography and CEUS can provide a powerful basis for the clinical diagnosis of sub-retinal hemorrhage, while CEUS has higher application value.
