Objective To evaluate the value of MSCT perfusion imaging in assessment of single renal function of hydronephrotic kidney.Methods 64-slice spiral CT perfusion was performed in 36 obstructive nephrohydrosis patients whose split renal glomerular filtration rate(GFR) was measured by SPECT renal dynamic imaging. ①The perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and renal medulla of the hydronephrotic kidney were compared with the normal kidney studied by contrast group. ②The 72 kidneys were divided into normal renal function, mild and severe renal impairment groups according to renal function. Differences between the groups respect to all the mean perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and renal medulla were assesses by ANOVA. ③Using Pearsons correlation test, the correlations between all the mean perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and renal medulla and renal GFR were examined.Results ① The time-density curves of bilateral normal renal cortex and medulla were not symmetric. The mean BF, BV, PS, PBV of renal cortex were (203. 2±44.9)ml·100 ml~(-1)·min~(-1), (27.6±3.9)ml/100 ml, (30.7±6.5)ml·100 ml~(-1)· min~(-1), (46.5±10. 9)ml/100 ml; and the mean BF, BV, PS, PBV of renal medulla were (99.9±24.1)ml·100 ml~(-1)·min~(-1) ,(18. 3±4.3)ml/100 ml, (51.8±12.1)ml · 100 ml~(-1)· min~(-1) , (21.3±3.0)ml/100 ml. The mean perfusion parameters of the cortex and medulla of obstructed kidney were lower compared to that of normal kidney. ②There were significant differences of all the perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and me-dulla between 3 groups (P<0. 05). ③The perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and medulla had positive linear correlation with GFR. The best correlation was the blood flow of the cortex of kidney. The correlation coefficient r=0.852.Conclusions64-slice spiral CT perfusion imaging can quantita-tively evaluate the haemodynamic condition and functional lesion of the kidney, classify the impaired kidney function. The perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and medulla had positive linear correlation with GFR.

Objective:To explore the effect of nursing interventions based on individual and family self-management theory (IFSMT) on postoperative rehabilitation of patients undergoing percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic surgery.Methods:A total of 835 patients who underwent percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic surgery in Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital from January 2018 to January 2020 were selected as research objects by the convenient sampling method. According to the random envelope method, patients were divided into the control group ( n=417) and the observation group ( n=418) according to the approximate 1∶1 standard. The control group was given routine nursing intervention, while the observation group was given nursing intervention based on IFSMT on the basis of the control group. The differences in self-management ability, postoperative recovery time, lumbar functional recovery, pain score and postoperative complication rate before and after intervention were compared between the two groups. Results:After intervention, the scores of treatment management, psychological management, life management and knowledge and skill management in the observation group were higher than those before intervention and were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01). The hospitalization days, self-care time and work recovery time of observation group were shorter than those of control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01). After intervention, the Oswestry dysfunction index and pain score in the observation group were lower than those before intervention and lower than those in the control group. The treatment score evaluated by the Japanese Orthopedic Association was higher than that before intervention and higher than that of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01). The incidence of postoperative complications in observation group was lower than that in control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:IFSMT based nursing intervention for patients undergoing percutaneous foraminal endoscopic surgery is beneficial to postoperative rehabilitation of patients, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objectives:Analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS) progressing to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).Explore the risk factors for the progression from PAPS to SLE.Methods:The clinical data of 262 patients with PAPS enrolled in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from February 2005 to September 2021 were evaluated. Assessments included demographic data, clinical manifestations, laboratory tests (serum levels of complement, anti-nuclear antibodies, anti-double-stranded DNA antibodies), treatment, and outcomes. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to calculate the prevalence of SLE in patients with PAPS. Univariate Cox regression analysis was employed to identify the risk factors for PAPS progressing to SLE.Results:Among 262 patients with PAPS, 249 had PAPS (PAPS group) and 13 progressed to SLE (5.0%) (PAPS-SLE group). Univariate Cox regression analysis indicated that cardiac valve disease ( HR=6.360), positive anti-double-stranded DNA antibodies ( HR=7.203), low level of complement C3 ( HR=25.715), and low level of complement C4 ( HR=10.466) were risk factors for the progression of PAPS to SLE, whereas arterial thrombotic events ( HR=0.109) were protective factors ( P<0.05 for all). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the prevalence of SLE in patients suffering from PAPS with a disease course>10 years was 9%-15%. Hydroxychloroquine treatment had no effect on the occurrence of SLE in patients with PAPS ( HR=0.753, 95% CI 0.231-2.450, P=0.638). Patients with≥2 risk factors had a significantly higher prevalence of SLE compared with those with no or one risk factor (13-year cumulative prevalence of SLE 48.7% vs. 0 vs. 6.2%, P<0.001 for both). Conclusions:PAPS may progress to SLE in some patients. Early onset, cardiac-valve disease, positive anti-dsDNA antibody, and low levels of complement are risk factors for the progression of PAPS to SLE (especially in patients with≥2 risk factors). Whether application of hydroxychloroquine can delay this transition has yet to be demonstrated.
