Objective To explore the imaging radiological and clinicopathological characteristics of benign fibrous histiocytoma (BFH) of bone, in order to improve the imaging diagnostic accuracy of the disease Methods Radiological and clinical data of 16 patients with BFH confirmedbypathology were retrospectively analyzed , and relevant literatures were reviewed. Results The X-ray findings of 14 BFHpatients were osteolytic lesion , expansive destruction of bone,without soft tissue involvement, 10 with residual apophysis,9 with osteosclerosis marginal; CT was performed on 2 patients. Expansive destruction of bone and soft tissue densities were seen inside the loops , 1 case remarkable enhancement of the lesion. MRI was performed on 9 patients and 5 cases showed long T1 and T2 signal intensity; 1case showed equal T1 and long T2 signal intensity in cystic part and equal T1 and T2 signal intensity in the solid part. One patient had pathological fracture, and the surrounding soft tissue invaded, showing equal T1 and long T2 signal intensity. Two lesions located at spinous process of cervical vertebra , showing long T1 short T2 and equal T1 and T2 signal intensity. Linear low signal separation shadow in T1 and T2 could be seen in 6 cases. Long T1 and short T2 sclerotic ring were seen in 4 cases. Solid part of tumor and linear separator were obviously enhanced. Conclusions The radiological findings of benign fibrous histioeytoma of bone indicate some characteristics. The combination with X-ray , CT and MRI examination is helpful to improve the diagnostic accuracy of the disease before operation.

Objective:To evaluate the immunological efficacy of a novel DNA vaccine against West Nile virus (WNV) in a mouse model.Methods:A DNA vaccine VRC-prME expressing the precursor membrane (prM) and envelope protein (E) of WNV Xinjiang strain (XJ11129-3) was constructed and its ability to express virus-like particles was verified in vitro. C57BL/6 mice were immunized twice with VRC-prME via intramuscular injection combined with electroporation with an interval of four weeks. Enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) was used to detect serum antibodies after immunization. WNV (NY99 strain) single-round infectious particles were used to detect neutralizing antibodies. Cellular immune responses were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunoblot assay (ELISPOT) and intracellular cytokine staining (ICS). Results:VRC-prME induced a strong Th1-biased antibody response in mice that could cross-neutralize the WNV (NY99 strain) single-round infectious particles two weeks after the boost immunization. Moreover, the vaccine also elicited antigen-specific multifunctional CD8 + T cell responses (IFN-γ, IL-2, TNF-α). Conclusions:The novel DNA vaccine prepared in this study, expressing the prME protein of WNV XJ11129-3 strain, could induce stronger humoral and cellular immune responses in mice, which was worthy of further research and development for the prevention of WNV infection in China.

Objective To explore the radiological features of intracerebroventricular central neurocytoma and so as to improve the diagnosis of this disease. Methods Thirty patients with pathologically confirmed intra-cerebroventricular central neurocytoma in Nanfang Hospital in past 7 years were analyzed retrospectively for their clinical,radiological and pathological features combined with literatures review. Results Lesions of central neuro-cytoma located at the Monro's foramen areas,the anterior horns and bodies of lateral ventricles.Twenty eight of the patients underwent MRI(with 4 patients received MRS)and 11 patients underwent CT.All cases revealed unilateral or bilateral hydrocephalus of the lateral ventricles and ventriculomegaly.Plain CT revealed heterogeneous isodensity or slighly high density lesions with multiple cystic degeneration,necrosis and calcification while a few lesions(4 le-sions)showed hemorrhage.Heterogeneous isointense or mild hypointense were demonstrated on T1-weight MRI and heterogeneous isointense or slightly hyperintense on T2-weight MRI.Multiple cystic degeneration(always showed as distinctive "soap bubble sign"), necrosis and calcification could also be found within the tumor. The solid compo-nent of tumor revealed slightly high to high signal intensity on DWI while the cystic and necrosis components showed low signal intensity.Most of the tumors showed mild to moderate enhancement with vessels passing through on contrast scan. All cases with 1H MRS showed with obviously increased in Cho peak and decreased in Cr and NAA peaks.In immunohistochemical assay,most of the tumors revealed positive expressions of Neu-N,Synaptophy-sin, GFAP and hypo-level Ki-67. Conclusions The intracerebroventricular central neurocytoma has some typical imaging manifestations.Comprehensive analysis of CT and MRI can be conducive to preoperative diagnosis and dif-ferential diagnosis with other tumors in the lateral ventricle.

Objective:To investigate the intention to participate in health care in transitional children and adolescents with diabetes and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:This was a cross-sectional survey study. From March to October 2021, 185 children and adolescents with diabetes were selected as research subjects by convenience sampling method from People′s Hospital Affiliated to Jiangsu University. General data questionnaire, Participation in Health Care Intention Questionnaire, Health Literacy Scale and Diabetes Self-management Scale were used to investigate, and multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of the population′s intention to participate in health care.Results:The transitional children and adolescents with diabetes participation in health care intention total score was (124.87 ± 16.31) points, the health literacy total score was (33.70 ± 4.38) points, diabetes self-management total score was (35.11 ± 5.19) points. The regression analysis found that age, course of the disease, diabetes type, family structure modes, health literacy, and self-management ability were the main factors influencing adolescents involved in health care intention ( t values were -1.99-2.66, all P<0.05), including health literacy ability and disease management ability was positively correlated with the disease ( r = 0.250, 0.232, both P<0.01). Conclusions:The transitional children and adolenscents with diabetes have a medium level of intention to participate in health care. The transitional children and adolenscents with older age, longer disease course and nuclear family structure had higher levels of health care intention. The higher the level of health literacy and self-management, the higher the level of intention to participate in health care, medical staff should take targeted measures to improve the intention to participate in health care, promote this group to improve disease management ability and quality of life.
