Objective To understand the incidence of renal involvement of children with non Hodgkin′s lymphoma and to recognize its different CT findings. Methods The thoracic and abdominal plain and contrast enhanced CT of 30 cases of NHL in children were reviewed and all cases were confirmed by pathology. The changes in both pre and post chemotherapy were analysed in the 10 selected cases with renal involvement. Results CT demonstrated 6 cases of multiple masses and 1 case of multiple patchy lesions in bilateral kidneys. Two cases of single mass and 1 case of multiple masses were detected in single kidney. Conclusion The incidence of renal involvement of children with non Hodgkin′s lymphoma is relatively high. CT can clearly demonstrate the renal involvement of NHL, which is helpful for clinical stage, especially in the evaluation of the therapeutic effects. Hence, abdominal plain and contrast enhanced CT scan should be done in children with NHL.

Objective To evaluate the blood-saving effect of acute hypervolemic hemodilution (AHH) with 6% hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 (HES 130/0.4) in preschool children.Methods Forty ASA Ⅰ patients,aged 3-6 yr,weighing 11.5-22.5 kg,with body height of 78-120 cm,scheduled for orthopedic or general surgeries,were divided into 2 groups by drawing lots:group AHH (n =20) and group control (n =20).6%HES 130/0.4 10 ml/kg was infused over 30 min at a rate of 0.3 ml·kg-1 · min-1 through the internal jugular vein before surgery in group AHH.The fluid balance,blood loss,urine output and blood transfusion during operation were recorded.The blood routine,liver and kidney function and coagulation function (prothrombin time (PT),activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT),fibrinogen (Fib)) were measured before AHH (T0) and at 0,4 and 24 h after AHH (T1-3).Hypokalemia,hypocalcemia and prolongation of PT and APTT during surgery,and pulmonary edema,heart failure and abnormal bleeding from the site in the wound during the perioperative period were recorded.Results The two groups were comparable with regard to the volume of multiple electrolyte solution consumed,blood loss,parameters of liver and kidney function,platelet count and incidences of hypokalemia and hypocalcemia (P > 0.05).The urine output was significantly increased,Hct at T1 and Fib at T1,2 were significantly decreased,PT and APTT were prolonged,and the percentage of patients without allogeneic blood transfusion and incidences of prolongation of PT and APTT were significantly increased in group AHH as compared with group C (P < 0.05).No pulmonary edema,heart failure and abnormal bleeding were found during the perioperative period.Conclusion AHH with 6% HES 130/0.4 10 ml/kg provides better blood-saving effect in preschool children,has little effect on the internal environment,but prolongs the coagulation time and exerts effect on coagulation function to some extent.

Objective To observe the effect of a high temperature environment on IL-17 concentration , neutrophil and lymphocyte in peripheral blood of soldiers on a training task .Methods Totally 160 health training soldiers were randomly and equally divided into two groups .The test group was trained and exposed to an environment of ( 32 ±1 )℃ vs control group at ( 22 ±1 )℃ for 2 hours before the IL-17 levels in venous blood were measured and peripheral neutrophils and lymphocytes were determined.Results The body temperatures were (38.74 ±0.26),(39.23 ±0.24),and (39.51 ± 0.34)℃after training for 40 min,50 min,and 60 min under a high temperature environment , respectively, and there was a significant increase of body temperature compared to the soldiers trained under normal conditions (P <0.05).Their perceived exertion rating was 17.62 ±0.66, 18.03 ±0.56, and 18.47 ±0.84, respectively, much unlike the control group (P<0.05).After 2 hours of training under high temperature , the concentration of IL-17 was (7.12 ±4.03) pg/ml, while the number of neutrophils and lymphocytes was (6.43 ±1.27) ×109/L and (9.84 ±1.36) ×109/L, respectively in peripheral blood, significantly higher than in the control group (P <0.05).Conclusion The body temperature and rating of perceived exertion of the training soldiers are significantly elevated under a high temperature environment, and the concentration of IL-17, and the neutrophils and lymphocytes counts in peripheral blood are increased .

Objective To investigate the changes in blood coagulation during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in children of different ages undergoing open heart surgery for cyanotic congenital heart disease.Methods Sixty children with cyanotic congenital heart disease undergoing open heart surgery under CPB were divided into 3 age groups: Group A(age≤12 mort, n=25), Group B (12mon<age≤24 mon, n= 17) and Group C (24 mon< age<4 yr, n=18). Venous blood samples were taken immediately after induction of anesthesia(T1) and at 10 min after protamine administration (T2)for determination of activated coagulation time (SonACT), clot rate and platelet function (PF) using Sonoclot coagulation and platelet function analyzer-type DP2951 (Sieuco Co., USA).Results There was significant difference in SonACT, clot rate and PF at T1 among the 3 groups: the SonACT was significantly shorter in Groups B and C than in Group A, the clot rate was significantly higher in Group B than in Group C, and the PF was significantly lower in Group C than in Group A. At T2 , the SonACT was significantly prolonged in all 3 groups, the clot rate was significantly decreased in Groups A and B, and the PF was significantly decreased in Group A.Conclusion There are significant differences in blood coagulation and PF among the 3 different age groups of children with cyanotic congenital heart disease after induction of anesthesia and CPB has different effects on their blood coagulation and PF.

Objective To explore the value of readout segmentation of long variable echo-trains (RESOLVE) in the differentiation of prostate cancer from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods Seventy two consecutive patients with suspected prostate cancer were evaluated by 3.0 T MR examination (RESOLVE sequence included,b values=0 and 800 s/mm2) were included in our retrospective study.All the patients had ultrasound guided systemic biopsy with histopathological diagnosis.The patients were divided into group A (23 prostate cancer cases with total 43 malignant lesions) and group B (49 BPH cases with total 64 benign lesions).Two radiologists who were blinded to the clinical data quantitatively analyzed the ADC values of suspicious lesions independently.Inter-reader agreement for ADC values was assessed with Bland and Altman test,and the intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC).Difference of ADC values in two groups was assessed by student's t test.Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to determine the best predictor and cutoff value.Results A total of 107 lesions (43 malignant and 64 benign) were identified in 72 patients.ICC was 0.976,P<0.01.The mean ADC value of prostate cancer is lower than BPH (t=19.223,P<0.01),(0.74±0.12) × 10 3 and (1.21±0.12) × 10-3mm2/s respectively.Diagnostic cut-off point was 0.946× 10-3mm2/s,diagnostic sensitivity 95.3 % (41/43),specificity 98.4% (63/64),accuracy 97.2% (104/107).Conclusion RESOLVE ADC value is valuable in the differential diagnosis of prostate cancer and BPH.
