Objective To explore the correlation between the enhancement pattern of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) on contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and its tumor differentiation on histopathology. Methods HCC lesions (n=259) from 224 patients were retrospectively evaluated with CEUS and histopathological examination. CEUS was performed with SonoVue. The characteristics of blood perfusion and parameters of the time-intensity curve (TIC) were analyzed by ACQ soft?ware. Histopathological diagnoses were decided base on Edmonson grading system. Results Pathologic grading of HCC was not related to the arrival time(P>0.05);The washing-out time point and the enhancement time point and peak time point all appeared earlier in poorly differentiated HCC group, than those in moderately differentiated HCC group than those in well differentiated HCC group(P<0.01);The enhancement time point and the expurgation time point are shorter in poorly differ?entiated HCC group than those in moderately differentiated HCC group than those in well differentiated HCC group. All dif?ferences were with statistical significance. The mode of arterial perfusion in early stage was divided into 3 types:spider web type, radiative type and mixed type. The well differentiated HCC group mainly presented as radiative type ( 28/49, 47.14%). But the most of poorly differentiated HCC group mainly present as spider web type(88/127, 69.29%). The mix type was more common in moderately differentiated HCC group(49/83, 59.03%). Conclusion CEUS show different features of TIC pa?rameters and blood perfusion in different pathological stages of HCC lesions so it can serve as a method to assess the biologi?cal behavior of hepatocellular carcinoma.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the ability of high resolution magnetic resonance (MR) imaging at 3.0 tesla to depict the characterization of human carotid arterial vessel wall and detect atherosclerotic lesions ex vivo in comparison to histopathologic results. MethodsEighteen carotid arteries obtained from 9 elderly donors underwent fat-suppressed T1 - and T2-weighted MR imaging at 3.0 tesla MR system with a mouse coil. Corresponding histological sections were obtained for the comparison. Correlation between MR images and histopathologic slices was obtained by Pearson or Spearman correlation coefficient.Cohen K was computed to quantify the agreement between MRI and histopathologic findings.Results Lumen area,intima and media area measured on fat-suppressed T2-weighted images showed stronger correlation with the corresponding histopathologic slices [ MRI vs.histopathology:( 27. 53 ± 6. 77 ) mm2 vs.( 25.83 ±6. 69 ) mm2, r2 ＝ 0. 91,P2 ＝ 0. 024, ( 12.31 ± 3. 31 ) mm2 vs.( 12. 28 ± 3.71 ) mm2, r2 ＝ 0. 70, P2 ＝ 0. 020,Median 12. 29 mm2(Min 1.12 mm2, Max 33.18 mm2) vs.Median 11.62 mm2(Min 0.89 mm2, Max 32. 84 mm2 ), r2 ＝ 0. 74, P2 ＝ 0. 016, respectively]. The Cohen K score between the MR imaging and American Heart Association classifications was 0. 74, which corresponds to a good agreement. Conclusions 3.0 T high-resolution multi-sequence MRI can clearly show the structure of ex vivo carotid artery wall and allow quantitative assessment.Fat-suppressed T2Wimaging has a greater advantagein presenting atherosclerotic lesions.

Objective To explore the impacts of intensive nutritional intervention on maternal and infant outcomes in women with gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM). Methods From January 2014 to ecember 2014, a total of 518 women with GDM were stratified by age, height, body mass index (BMI), and were divided into treatment group (n=258) and control group (n=260) according to the random number generated by the computer software. Women in control group underwent conservative treatment while those in treatment group were given intensive nutritional intervention including keeping records of eating habits, measurement of blood glucose and regular follow-up. The incidence of pregnancy-related complications and newborn outcomes in both groups were compared. Results Women of the two groups were similar in basic clinical data. The range of gestational weight gain (GWG) [(12.2 ± 4.7) vs. (13.9 ± 5.0)kg] and birth weight of infants [(3 406.4±495.4) vs. (3 494.9±484.7)g] in the intervention group was significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.01). The rate of reaching recommended target of GWG was significantly higher in the intervention group (60.9%) than in the control group (51.9%, χ2=4.2, P<0.05). There was a significant reduction in glucose-related parameters in both groups (P<0.01). In the intervention group, fasting blood glucose and postprandial blood glucose were reduced from (5.21 ± 0.71) mmol/L, (6.68 ± 0.90) mmol/L to (4.71 ± 0.73) mmol/L,(6.21 ± 0.71) mmol/L (P<0.01), respectively in comparison with the control group, the intervention group had lower incidence of cesarean section (44.6% vs. 53.8%), postpartum hemorrhage (2.3%vs. 6.2%), polyhydramnios (7.8%vs. 13.5%), neonatal hypoglycemia (3.1%vs. 6.5%) and macrosomia (8.1%vs. 13.8%, P<0.05). Conclusions Strengthening nutritional intervention in women with GDM could increase the rate of reaching recommended target of GWG, improve the glucose-related parameters and reduce the incidence rate of pregnancy complications.

Objective To investigate the effect of antimicrobial-impregnated incise drape on preventing surgical site in-fection(SSI)following neurosurgical operation.Methods Patients undergoing neurosurgical operation from January to De-cember 2012 were divided into two groups:antimicrobial-impregnated incise drape group(group A)and general incise drape group(group B).The occurrence of SSI and risk factors for SSI were analyzed.Results Percentage of drape lifting at the wound edge in group A was lower than group B(38.3%[98/256]vs 96.88% [248/256],χ2 =200.57,P <0.01).Among 512 patients,SSI rate was 3.32%(n=17),SSI rate in group A was lower than group B(1.56%[4/256]vs 5.08%[13/256],χ2 = 7.93,P <0.05 ).Multivariate analysis revealed that body mass index ≥24,perioperative hypothermia,smok-ing,perioperative length of hospital stay ≥5 days,and lack of drape use were independent risk factors for SSI following neurosurgical operation.Conclusion Whether antimicrobial-impregnated incise drape is used in neurosurgical operation is one of the independent risk factors for SSI following neurosurgical operation,it can effectively reduce the drape lifting rate and incidence of SSI,and is recommended to be used in neurosurgical operation.

Objective:To explore the relationship among childhood psychological maltreatment,online aggressivebehavior and trait anger in college students.Methods:Totally 442 college students (226males,216 females,aged 16-25 years) were surveyed with the Psychological Maltreatment Scale (PMS),Adolescent Online Aggressive Behavior Scale (AOABS) and Trait Anger Scale (TAS).The bias-corrected percentile bootstrap method was used to analyze the mediating effect of trait anger between childhood psychological maltreatment and online aggressive behavior.Results:The scores of PMS,AOABS and TAS were positively correlated each other(r =0.44,0.37,0.48,Ps ＜0.01).The PMS scores had a significantly direct effect on the AOABS scores,its estimate was 0.27.The PMS scoreshad a significantly indirect effect on the AOABS scores through TAS scores(95％ CI:0.15-0.34).Conclusion:It suggests that the trait anger may be related to childhood psychological maltreatment and online aggressive behavior,and trait anger may play a partial mediating role between childhood psychological maltreatment and online aggressive behaviorin college students.
