BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVEElastofibroma dorsi has an extremely low incidence. At present, comparative study on imaging manifestations and pathologic findings of elastofibroma dorsi has not been reported in China. This study was to investigate clinical manifestations, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) appearances, and pathologic features of elastofibroma dorsi and to improve preoperative imaging diagnosis of this disease.
METHODSThe clinical manifestations, imaging findings, and pathologic appearances of 6 cases of elastofibroma dorsi were retrospectively analyzed and related literatures were reviewed. All patients were examined with MRI, and 4 of them were examined with CT scan.
RESULTSAll patients were above 30 years old without obvious symptoms. The tumors presented as a lenticular soft-tissue mass in the deep subscapular region. The tumor's density on plain CT scan or signal intensity on MR T1-weighted image was approximately equal to that of muscle with some interlaced fat-like areas within mass suppressed by fat-suppression MR sequences, which corresponded to dense collagen tissue and interspersed mature adipose tissue observed microscopically.
CONCLUSIONSCT and MRI can reflect the histological features of elastofibroma dorsi. On the basis of their imaging characteristics, a correct preoperative diagnosis of elastofibroma dorsi can easily be made.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of bivalirudin on reperfusion of coronary artery in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods In our study, we evaluated 245 patients with acute myocardial infarction who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention between April 2012 to May 2015. Based on the therapy during operation, bivalirudin were used in 122 patients and heparin was used in 123 patients. Study outcomes included immediate TIMI(thrombolysis in myocardial infarction)flow and CTFC(Corrected TIMI Frame Count)by angiogrophy once the target lesion was opened rates of ,in-hospital thrombocytopenia, bleeding events myocardial infarction, repeat revascularization and the incidence of MACE(major adverse cardiac events)in 30 days and 1 year. Results The mean heart rate was higher in the bivalirudin group(P=0.034). There was no significant difference between the two groups in laboratory results or interventional data(P>0.05). After the target vessel was opened, the effect of bivalirudin on slow/no-reflow in primary PCI has no difference between heparin in terms of TIMI blood evaluation or CTFC (P>0.05). Hospitalization data analysis showed that bivalirudin was able to obtain a higher activated whole blood coagulation time(ACT)value(P<0.001)with lower decrease in the number of platelets. Follow-up data of 30 days and 1 year showed no difference in the incidence of MACE and net adverse clinical events(NACE)between the two groups(P>0.05). Conclusions Bivalirudin has well efficacy and safety in patients with acute myocardial infarction in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing PPCI without increasing the incidence of slow/no-reflow.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a common clinical chronic respiratory disease, has a long course and is intractable. It is closely related to many factors, such as immune imbalance. Helper T cell 17 (Th17), an immune-promoting cell, and regulatory T cell (Treg), an immunosuppressive cell, maintain the balance of the immune microenvironment together. In the course of COPD, the proportion of Th17 cells usually increases, while the proportion of Tregs that inhibit Th17 activity decreases. Their coordination and balance are critical in the inflammatory and immune processes of COPD. At present, COPD is mainly treated with nasal inhalation preparations and oral drugs by western medicine. In spite of a certain therapeutic effect, side effects of drugs and heavy economic burden are becoming increasingly prominent. Modern research shows that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has the characteristics of few side effects, stable curative effect, and multi-target regulation, and it is advantageous and promising in the prevention and treatment of COPD. In recent years, a large number of TCM clinical and experimental trials on the intervention of Th17/Treg balance in COPD have been launched. Substantial pieces of evidence confirm that the intervention of Th17/Treg balance is an important potential target of TCM in the treatment of COPD. This study reviewed the previous research on the intervention effect of single Chinese medicine, effective components of Chinese medicine, and Chinese medicinal compound on Th17/Treg balance in COPD to comprehensively reveal the potential target of Th17/Treg balance in COPD for clinicians and scientific researchers, promote relevant research, and provide references for the rational application of TCM in the prevention and treatment of COPD.
