OBJECTIVE: This experiment aims to determine the diagnostic value of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in the differentiation of axillary inflammatory lymph nodes from metastatic lymph nodes in rabbit models in comparison with conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Conventional MRI and DWI were performed at 4 weeks after successful inoculation into the forty female New Zealand white rabbits' mammary glands. The size-based and signal-intensity-based criteria and the relative apparent diffusion coefficient (rADC) value were compared between the axillary inflammatory lymph nodes and metastatic lymph nodes, with histopathological findings as the reference standard. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the aforementioned criteria and rADC value in differentiating the axillary inflammatory lymph nodes from metastatic lymph nodes. RESULTS: Thirty-two axillary inflammatory lymph nodes and 46 metastatic ones were successfully isolated and taken into pathological analysis. The differences of the aforementioned criteria between the two groups were not statistically significant (p > 0.05). However, the rADC value of the inflammatory lymph nodes (0.9 +/- 0.14) was higher than that of metastatic ones (0.7 +/- 0.18), with significant difference (p = 0.016). When the rADC value was chosen as 0.80, the area under the ROC curve is greater than all other criteria, and the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value for differentiating two groups were 86.2%, 79.3%, 81.2%, 84.2%, and 85.6%, respectively. CONCLUSION: Diffusion-weighted imaging is a promising new technique for differentiating axillary inflammatory lymph nodes from metastatic lymph nodes. Compared with routine magnetic resonance sequences, DWI could provide more useful physiological and functional information for diagnosis.

OBJECTIVETo explore if CHA2DS2 VASc score can predict substrate for persistent atrial fibrillation ( AF) and outcome post catheter ablation of AF.
METHODSFrom January 2011 to December 2012,116 patients underwent catheter ablation of persistent AF in our department and were enrolled in this study. CHA2DS2VASc score was calculated as follows: two points were assigned for a history of stroke or transient ischemic attack and age ≥ 75 and 1 point each was assigned for age ≥ 65, a history of hypertension, diabetes,recent cardiac failure, vessel disease, female. Left atrial geometry ( LA) was reconstructed with a 3.5 mm tip ablation catheter with fill-in threshold 10 in CARTO system. The mapping catheter was stabled at each endocardial location for at least 3 seconds for recording. The electrogram recordings at each endocardial location were analyzed with a custom software embedded in the CARTO mapping system. Interval confidence level (ICL) was used to characterize complex fractionated atrial electrograms (CFAEs) . As the default setting of the software, ICL more than or equal to 7 was considered sites with a highly repetitive CFAEs complex. CFAEs index was defined as the fraction of area of ICL more than or equal to 7 to the left atrial surface. The CFAEs index and outcome of catheter ablation among different CHA2DS2VASc groups were compared.
RESULTSOf the 116 patients, CHA2DS2VASc was 0 in 33 patients, 1 in 31 patients and ≥ 2 in 52 patients. Left atrial surface ((121.2 ± 18.9) cm2, (133.6 ± 23.8) cm2, (133.9 ± 16.1) cm2, P = 0.008), left atrial volume ((103.6 ± 24.8) ml, (118.3 ± 27.8) ml, (120.9 ± 20.9) ml, P = 0.005) and CFAEs index (44.6% ± 22.4%, 54.2% ± 22.2%, 58.7% ± 23.1%, P = 0.023) increased in proportion with increasing CHA2DS2VASc. ICLmax, ICLmin and CFAEs spatial distribution were similar among the three groups. During the mean follow-up of (13 ± 8) months, the recurrence rate were 36.4%, 35.5%, 55.8% among the three groups (P = 0.025).
CONCLUSIONA high CHA2DS2VASc score is associated with extensive AF substrate and higher recurrence rate post catheter ablation of persistent AF.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and perioperative treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in department of thoracic surgery,and to guide the clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods From January 2013 to December 2016,patients with newly diagnosed NSCLC treated in the thoracic surgical department of Lanzhou University Second Hospital were reviewed retrospectively. The patients were divided into the COPD group and non-COPD group. The clinical data,including the incidence and clinical characteristics of COPD in non-small-cell lung cancer,pulmonary complications after surgery,COPD diagnosis and perioperative pulmonary rehabilitation were analyzed retrospectively. Results A total of 726 NSCLC patients were reviewed,six hundred and seventy-five cases who took the full lung function test were included in the study,of which 95 cases received bronchial diastolic test,86 cases were accorded with COPD diagnosis and were included in incorporated COPD group,and 589 cases were in the non- incorporated COPD group. The proportion of men (69 cases,80. 2%,χ2 = 24. 032), age ≥65 (51 cases,59. 3%,χ2 = 6. 784),smoking history (55cases,64. 0%,χ2 = 29. 474) and a large number of smokers (43 cases,50. 0%,χ2 = 5. 802) and lung squamous cell carcinoma(47 cases,54. 7%,χ2 = 6. 241) in the incorporated COPD group were higher than those in differences were statistically significant (P<0. 05); the incidence of pulmonary complications after radical resection of lung cancer in the incorporated COPD group was 23. 9% (16/ 67),which was significantly higher than that in the unincorporated COPD group(13. 7% (78/568)) (χ2 = 4. 894,P<0. 05). The incidence of pulmonary complications in the lung rehabilitation group was 13. 5% ( 5/37) , lower than that of the non-lung rehabilitation group ( 36. 7% ( 11/30 ) ) (χ2 = 4. 886, P<0. 05);Among the 86 cases (12. 7%) of incorporated COPD,only 6 cases (8. 9 ‰) were diagnosed with COPD at the time of admission, and 23 cases ( 3. 4%) at discharge. No COPD guidelines were given. Conclusion NSCLC often combined wtith COPD,especially in males,elders (≥65 years old) ,smokers, squamous cell carcinoma patients. At present,the diagnosis and treatment of co-morbidity of COPD is seriously inadequate,which needs to be paid much attention to by the thoracic surgeons,in order to improve the diagnosis and treatment of COPD,and improve the prognosis of the patients with NSCLC and COPD.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy of catheter ablation in Chinese hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), and to determine the risk factors of AF recurrence.
METHODSThis study enrolled 40 HCM patients with AF who underwent primary AF ablation at Beijing Anzhen Hospital from June 2005 to June 2013. Ablation strategy included bilateral pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for paroxysmal AF (n = 27) and PVI plus left atrial roof, mitral isthmus and tricuspid isthmus linear ablations for persistent AF (n = 13). AF recurrence was followed-up by means of electrocardiography or Holter monitoring. Risk factors associated with AF recurrence were determined by a Cox regression model and the predictive power was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.
RESULTSAfter (34 ± 18) months follow-up, 30% (12/40) cases remained in sinus rhythm off antiarrhythmic drug, most AF recurrence (18/28, 64.3%) occurred within 1 year post ablation. Multivariate Cox regression demonstrated that left atrial dimension (LAD, HR = 1.124, 95% CI 1.051-1.202, P = 0.001) and female gender (HR = 3.304, 95% CI 1.397-7.817, P = 0.007) were independent risk factors of AF recurrence. The cut-off value of LAD at 43.5 mm predicted AF recurrence with sensitivity of 93.5% and specificity of 60.0%. Every 1 mm enlargement in LAD was associated with an increased risk of arrhythmia recurrence (HR = 1.095, 95% CI 1.031-1.163, P = 0.003).
CONCLUSIONSAF ablation in Chinese HCM patients is safe and feasible. However, sinus rhythm maintenance rate is low at long-time follow-up. Most of the recurrent AF occurs within 1 year post AF ablation procedure. Left atrial diameter and female gender are independent risk factors of AF recurrence.

Human secreted phospholipase A2 GIIE (hGIIE) is involved in inflammation and lipid metabolism due to its ability of hydrolyzing phospholipids. To reveal the mechanism of substrate head-group selectivity, we analyzed the effect of mutation of hGIIE on its activity and selectivity. hGIIE structural analysis showed that E54 might be related to its substrate head-group selectivity. According to the sequence alignment, E54 was mutated to alanine, phenylalanine, and lysine. Mutated genes were cloned and expressed in Pichia pastoris X33, and the enzymes with mutations were purified with 90% purity by ion exchange and molecular size exclusion chromatography. The enzymatic activities were determined by isothermal microthermal titration method. The Km of mutant E54K towards 1,2-dihexyl phosphate glycerol decreased by 0.39-fold compared with that of wild type hGIIE (WT), and the Km of E54F towards 1,2-dihexanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine increased by 1.93-fold than that of WT. The affinity of mutant proteins with phospholipid substrate was significantly changed, indicating that E54 plays an important role in the substrate head-group selectivity of hGIIE.
