Objective To study the clinical features and pathology of renal damage in patients with MPA. Method The clinical pathological changes of 23 MPA patients were analyzed and the patients with positive ANCA were compared with those with negative ANCA. Results Most MPA patients were senile and male with the symptoms of lung damage, pleuritis, arthritis and myalgia as well as extrarenal symptoms such as fever, weight-loss, and anorexia. 65.2% of the patients were ANCA (+). Symptoms of renal function damage were hematuria and proteinuria, which could be found in all the patients. Different degree of renal damage could be detected. Glomerular cresent formation, which were mostly fibrous, could be found in all of the 23 patients. Half of the patients have tuft necrosis and interstitial vessel vasculitis. Conclusion MPA patients often have extrarenal symptoms besides renal function damage. Patients with positive ANCA differs from patients with negative ANCA in both clinical manifestation and kidney pathology.

Objective To study the influence of combined spinal-epidural anesthesia on perioperative coagulation function,RAAS activity and postoperative analgesia effect in parturients with cesarean section.Methods One hundred and eighteen parturients of cesarean section in our hospital from June 2013 to January 2016 were collected and divided into the observation group and control group according to the random number table method,59 cases in each group.The observation group received the combined spinal-epidural anesthesia and the control group received epidural anesthesia.The coagulation function indicators on preoperative 1 d (T0),at 10 min before operation end(T1) and postoperative 6 h (T2) were detected by adopting the automatic blood coagulation analyzer,the renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) function indices were detectd by radioimmunoassay.The pain indicators at postoperative 6 h(T2),12 h (T3) were detected by the pain threshold test instrument.Results The levels of prothrombin time(PT),activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and thrombin time (TT) at T1 and T2 in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group,while the PTA level was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05);serum RAAS indices such as (renin),angiotensin Ⅱ(ANG II) aldosterone(ALD) in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The VAS score at T2,T3 in the observation group was lower than that in the control group,while the pain threshold and pain tolerance threshold levels in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Combined spinal-epidural anesthesia can reduce the blood coagulation and RAAS activation caused by cesarean section trauma,and the effect of postoperative analgesia is more significant.

Objective To investigate the value of renal CT arteriography in the preoperation evaluation of patients with renal tumors.Methods From Jan 2007 to June 2012,372 patients with renal tumors took renal CT arteriography (with Philips Brilliance 16) to evaluate the variations of their renal arteries.We executed plain scan first,then artery phase,venous phase scan and delaying scan by turns after injections of Omnipaque.All images were delivered to imaging workstation and reconstructed to 3D views of renal arteries to supply imageological supports for surgeons.Results Tumors in solitary kidneys were detected in 21 patients,and masses in both kindneys were detected in 4 cases.We collected data of 376 kidneys finally.We found premature branching renal arteries on 46 kidneys (12.2％) and accessory renal arteries on 74 kidneys (19.7％).Double accessory renal arteries were seen on 10 kidneys (2.7％),and there were 84 accessory renal arteries in summary.7 accessory renal arteries (7.2％) came from arteria phrenica and 77 (91.7％) came from abdominal aorta (x2 =65.68,P ＜ 0.01).We found the regions where the accessory renal arteries entered kidneys:65.5％ (55/84) in upper poles,19.0％ (16/84) in central regions and 15.5％ (13/84)in inferior poles.Routine CT scans found 44 variations of renal arteries in 218 cases who underwent surgeries,and then renal CT arteriography found 63 variations in the same cases (20.2％ vs 28.9％,x2 =4.47,P ＜ 0.05).Finally,surgeons found 60 variations of renal artries in operations in the 63 cases with variations found by renal CT arteriography before surgeries.Conclusions There is limitations of routine CT scan (plain scan and with contrast medium) in detection of renal artery variations.Renal CT arteriography can supply reliable supports for establishment of surgical plans for renal tumors.

Objective To evaluate the dosimetric effects of target volume delineation with metal clip and seroma,alone or in combination,on external-beam partial breast irradiation (EB-PBI) based on four-dimensional computed tomography (4DCT).Methods Twenty female patients undergoing EB-PBI from 2009 to 2013 were enrolled as subjects.The gross tumor volumes (GTVs),GTVC,GTVS,and GTVC+S,were delineated on 4DCT images at 10 phases using metal clip,seroma,and both of them,respectively.The GTVS on 4DCT images at 10 phases were fused to generate the internal gross tumor volumes (IGTVS),IGTVC,IGTVS,and IGTVC+S.The planning target volumes (PTVS),PTVC,PTVS,and PTVC+S,were obtained via expansion of margin by 15 mm.The three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy plans were made by one physician based on PTVC,PTVS,and PTVC+S on end-inhalation images.The target volume,homogeneity index (HI),conformity index (CI),and doses to organs at risk were compared between the three groups.Results The C+S group had the largest IGTV,PTV,and the ratio of PTV to diseased breast volume,which was followed by the C group and the S group (all P＜ 0.05).The S group had significantly lower doses to the ipsilateral normal breast and lung than the C group and the C+S group (all P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in HI or CI between the three groups (all P＞ 0.05).Conclusions The volume variation caused by target volume dehneation on 4DCT images based on different references has little impact on dose distribution in target volume.However,it has substantial impact on radiation doses to the ipsilateral normal breast and lung.

Objective To explore the influence of different delineators and different delineating time on target determination of the whole breast and to explore intrafraction and interaction target displacements of the breast on moderate deep inspiration breathing hold (mDIBH) assisted by active breathing control (ABC) after breast conservative surgery. Methods Twenty patients received primary CT-simulation assisted by ABC to get five sets of CT image on the three breathing condition which included one set from free breath ( FB), two sets from mDIBH and two sets from deep expiration breathing control (DEBH). After radiotherapy with ten to fifteen fractions, the repeat CT-simulation was carried out to get the same five sets of CT image as the primary CT-simulation. The whole breast target were delineated at different time by the same delineator and delineated respectively by five delineators on the first set of CT images got with mDIBH from the primary CT-simulation,and to compare the influence of delineator and delineating time on the whole breast target. The total silver clips in the cavity were marked respectively on the two sets of CT images got with mDIBH from the primary CT-simulation, and to compare the intrafraction displacement of geometric body structured by the total of silver clips. The two ribs near the isocentric plane of the breast target were delineated respectively on two sets of the mDIBH CT image from the primary CT-simulation and on one set of the mDIBH CT image from the repeat CT-simulation, and comparing the movement of the point of interest (POI) of the ribs delineated to get the value of intrafraction and interfraction thoracic expansion. Results There was not statistically significant between the four volumes of whole breast targets delineated by the same delineator at different time, but with statistics significant between the volumes of whole breast target delineated by the different delineators(F = 19.681, P = 0.000). There was not statistically significant between the intrafraction displacements of the POI of the geometric body at each direction, and with no statistically significant between intrafraction displacements of the POI of the ribs delineated on the same mDIBH condition. There was not statistically significant between the interfraction displacements of the POI of the ribs delineated. Conclusions The influence of different delineators on the whole breast target is statistically significant. The difference of displacement of the breast target with the same mDIBH eondition assisted by ABC at the different direction is not statistically significant.

Objective To compare volumetric size, conformity index (CI), degree of inclusion (DI) of internal gross target volumes (IGTV) delineated on 4D-CT-MIP and PET-CT images for primary thoracic esophageal cancer. Methods Fifteen patients with thoracic esophageal cancer sequentially underwent enhanced 3D-CT, 4D-CT and PET-CT simulation scans. IGTVMIP was obtained by contouring on 4D-CT maximum intensity projection ( MIP). The PET contours were determined with nine different threshold methods (SUV≥2?0, 2?5, 3?0, 3?5), the percentages of the SUVmax(≥20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%) and manual contours. The differences in size, conformity index (CI), degree of inclusion ( DI) of different volumes were compared. Results The volume ratios ( VRs) of IGTVPET2. 5 to IGTVMIP , IGTVPET20% to IGTVMIP, IGTVPETMAN to IGTVMIP were 0?86, 0?88, 1?06, respectively, which approached closest to 1. The CIs of IGTVPET2?0,IGTVPET2.5,IGTVPET20%,IGTVPETMAN and IGTVMIP which were 0?55, 0?56, 0?56, 0?54,0?55, respectively, were significantly larger than other CIs of IGTVPET and IGTVMIP (Z= -3?408-2?215,P <0?05). There were no statistical significance in the DIs of IGTVMIP and IGTVPET2.5,IGTVMIP and IGTVPET20%, IGTVMIP and IGTVPETMAN(0?77,0?82,0?71,0?67, 0?68,0?82,P>0?05). Conclusions The targets delineated based on SUV threshold setting of≥2?5, 20% of the SUVmax and manual contours on PET images correspond better with the target delineated on maximum intensity projection of 4D-CT images than other SUV thresholding methods.
