Objective To investigate the fluid resuscitation strategies to craniocerebral injury patients combined with multiple trauma.Methods This retrospective review was made on 124 patients with combined craniocerebal injury (GCS 3-12 points) plus multiple trauma.Based on the fluid resuscitation strategies,63 patients were treated with aggressive fluid resuscitation (AFR),and 61 with limited fluid resuscitation (LFR).A restrictive rehydration principle was performed with intensive hemodynamic monitoring:mean arterial pressure was kept between 70-80 mmHg for 48 hours and central venous pressure between 6-8 cmH2O for 48 hours in LFR group; mean arterial pressure was kept in basic level and central venous pressure between 8-12 cmH2O in AFR group.No significant differences were shown in the rest of treatments.Parameters were compared between groups such as blood pressure,shock index,coagulation function,imaging data,GCS,and GOS at 6 months postinjury.Results Between-group differences were insignificant with regard to mean arterial pressure (MAP),shock indices,ISS,trauma severity indices (TSI),and GCS (P >0.05).Blood pressure fluctuation in LFR group was (18.5 ±9.9) mmHg vs (29.4 ± 11.1) mmHg in AFR group (P < 0.01).Eight patients developed intracranial hemorrhage progression in LFR group,with 3 being treated with craniotomy.In comparison,19 patients developed intracranial hemmorrhage progression in AFR group,with 10 being treated with craniotomy (P < 0.01).Improvement in coagulation disorders was better in LFR group than in AFR group.On days 7 after admission,GCS in LFR groups was (9.1 ± 3.6) points vs (7.2 ± 2.3) points in AFR group (P <0.05).At 6-month follow-up,results were 34 good and 27 poor in LFR group,better than 23 good and 40 poor in AFR group.Conclusion For moderate to severe craniocerebral injury combined with multiple trauma,LFR is effective to treat coagulation disorders and hemorrhagic shock,reduce the probability of delayed intracranial hemorrhage,and further improve the outcome.

Objective To analyze the differences of ADC values in breasts of women of different ages and different menstrual phases, so as to direct the choice of the examination time of MR DWI. MethodsThe breasts of 65 healthy volunteers were scanned with the routine MRI plain scan and DWI in the menstrual, proliferative and secretary phases. DWI was conducted with single shot echo planar imaging technique and b value were 0, 1000 s/mm2. The women were divided into three groups: Group 1(aged 20 to 29 years, 21 cases), Group 2 (aged 30 to 39, 21cases), and Group 3 (aged 40 to 49, 23 cases). The ADC values of all 130 breasts at nipple level in the different phases were measured. The ADC values in the three age groups and in the different menstrual phases were compared using ANOVA. Results The mean ADC values of Group 1 were (2.14±0.14) ×10-3, (2.03±0.18) ×10-3and (2.10±0.19)×10-3mm2/s for left breast, and (2.08±0.17) ×10-3, (2.02±0.16) ×10-3and (2.09±0.17) ×10-3mm2/s for right breast in the menstrual, proliferative and secretary phases. They were slightly higher than Group 3, which were (2.02±0.27) ×10-3, (1.97±0.25) ×10-3and (2.03±0.22)×10-3 mm2/s for left breast and (1.99±0.29) ×10-3, (1.93±0.26) ×10-3and (2.03±0.28)×10-3 mm2/s for right breast. The mean ADC values of Group 2 [left breast: (1.94±0.25) ×10-3, (1.91±0.21) ×10-3and (1.97±0.21)×10-3 mm2/s ; right breast: (1.97±0.26)×10-3, (1.89±0.25)×10-3and (1.96±0.22)×10-3 mm2/s) were the lowest among the three age groups. There were significant differences in different menstrual phases (F= 23.600, P<0.01), but no statistical difference was found among the three age groups or between left breasts and right breasts (F= 1.683, 2.248;P>0.05).Conclusions The mean ADC values of breasts decrease markedly in the proliferative phase.The effects of the menstrual cycle on the breast ADC values should be considered in the evaluation of breast diseases with DWI.

ObjectiveTo estimate the applications of ADC value and rADC value in the diagnosis of nodular lesions of breasts.Methods Fifty-two cases with 66 nodular lesions of breasts confirmed by histopathology underwent diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging.Three b values (0,800 and 1000 s/mm2) were applied.The mean ADC values of the breast nodules,the ADC values of ipsilateral breast( rADC1 )and ADC values of contralateral breast (rADC2 )were respectively measured.The independent-samples t-test and chi-square test were used for statistical analyses.ResultsOf the 52 patients,there were 18 patients with infiltrating ductal carcinoma and 34 patients with fibroadenoma.50 patients with 64 lesions were examined by DWI.( 1 ) at b = 800 s/mm2,the mean ADC values of malignant nodules [ ( 1.01 ±0.09) × 10-3 mm2/s],rADC800-1 (0.52 ±0.07)and rADC800-2 (0.51 ±0.06) were lower than that of the benign nodules [ ADC value = ( 1.54 ± 0.28 ) × 10 -3 mm2/s,t = 8.217,P < 0.01 ; rADC800-1 =0.77 ±0.15,t =9.339,P<0.01 ; rADC800-2 =0.76 ±0.14,t = 10.394,P <0.01 ].The one-side upper limits of 95% medical reference value of mean values of infiltrating ductal carcinoma were adopted as the threshold point to distinguish the malignant from the benign.The threshold value of breast malignant nodule ADC,the rADC800-1 and rADC800-2 were respectively 1.05 × 10-3 mm2/s,0.55 and 0.53.The sensitivities of the three methods were 75.0%,65.0% and 60.0% ; the specificities were 100.0%,95.7% and 97.8% ;the positive predictive values were respectively 100.0%,86.7% and 92.3% ; the negative predictive values were 90.2%,86.3% and 84.9%; the diagnosis accordance rates were respectively 92.4%,86.4% and 86.4%.( 2 ) at b = 1000 s/mm2,the mean ADC values of malignant nodules [ ( 0.93 ± 0.08 ) ×10-3 mm2/s],rADC1000-1 (0.53 ±0.09) and rADC1000-2 (0.52 ±0.07) were also lower than that of the benign nodules[ ADC value= (1.45 ±0.28) ×10-3 mm2/s,t=11.844,P<0.01; rADC1000-1 =0.75 ±0.16,t=5.820,P < 0.01 ; rADC1000-2 = 0.74 ± 0.15,t = 8.082,P < 0.01 ].The threshold value points breast malignant nodule ADC,the rADC1000-1 and rADC1000-2 were respectively 0.97 × 10-3 mm2/s,0.58,0.55.The sensitivities were all 70.0% ; the specificities were respectively 100.0%,95.7% and 93.5% ;the positive predictive values were 100.0%,87.5% and 82.4% ; the negative predictive values were 88.5%,88.0% and 87.8% ; the diagnosis accordance rates were 90.9%,87.9% and 86.5% respectively.There were no significant differences in specificities and the diagnosis accordance rates ( x2 = 1.232,2.263 ; P =0.942,0.812 ).Conclusions ADC value and rADC value are both important parameters of MRI in differentiating benign and malignant breast diseases.The study indicated that ADC value ( at b =800 s/mm2) was the most valuable parameter.
