To improve the diagnosis of concomitance of cancer and cyst in the same kidney, a retrospective review of the imaging results of 10 patients with cystic renal cancers confirmed by surgery and pathologic study was performed. Excretory urography showed an avascular mass suggestive of a cyst. Ultrasonography revealed a cystic mass with thinkened and irregular walls,but it was unable to distinguish between a complicated and an extensively necrotic cancer.On CT scans,irregular cystic wall and definite early enhancement in solid component were observed.In some of the patients,there were mural nodules,septum and calcification. Some scans may show an almost cystic appearance,but one or more CT scans always showed some dense neoplastic tissue.This study indicated irregular and thickened cystic wall and septum,mural nodules and early enhancement of solid component were the characteristic findings for the CT diagnosis.This suggestive CT pattern must be particularly searched for at the base of the cyst,but may also be present in the periphery of the cyst.

Object To select the endophytic fungi which produce vincristine by isolating fungi from the leaves of Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don. Methods The endophytic fungi were isolated from the leaves of C. roseus and the zymotic extracts were analyzed by TLC and HPLC. Results An endophytic fungus which is Mycelia sterilia 97CY_3 can produce vincristine. The content of vincristine in the fungus was determined as 0.205 ?g/L by HPLC. Conclusion Some endophytic fungi isolated from C. roseus can produce the anticancer substance vincristine which is the same as that of host plant producing.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of azithromycin combined with different-dose methylprednisolone therapy for refractory mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(RMPP)in children.Methods:Two hundred and twenty cases of RMPP admitted to Chengdu Women′s and Children′s Central Hospital between January 2014 and December 2019 were selected.They were treated with azithromycin combined with 1~2 mg/(kg·d)(low-dose)of methylprednisolone for 3 days, then they were divided into 2 groups, 152 cases with effective treatment in the control group A(effective group), 68 cases with ineffective treatment in observation group B(ineffective group). Among group B, according to the IgG, IgM and IgA as defined in Zhu Futang Practice of Pediatrics, 45 cases with normal immunity named normal-immune group B, change methylprednisolone dose to 10~30 mg/(kg·d)(high-dose)for 3 days, and 23 cases with low immunity named weakened-immune group B, change methylprednisolone dose to 10~30 mg/(kg·d)for 3 days and give immunomodulator therapy, that is human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection(IVIG)200 mg/(kg·d)for 3 days.After treatment, duration of fever, lung inflammation, extrapulmonary complications, hospitalization days and other indicators were compared.Results:Comparison between group A and group B, the lung rale absorption time[(11.32±3.62)d vs(10.00±2.32)d], lung consolidation absorption rate(64.10% vs 83.33%), pulmonary atelectasis retentive rate(52.38% vs 82.60%), effusion absorption rate(66.67% vs 100.00% ), the incidence rate of extrapulmonary complications(38.82% vs 25.00%), the disappearance time of complications[(10.96±2.98)d vs(8.94±2.86)d], the average hospitalization stay[(12.30±3.56)d vs(11.25±3.84)d]were significantly different( P<0.05). Comparison between normal-immune group B and weakened-immune group B after giving high doses of methylprednisolone, the fever dropped time[(10.51±3.26)h vs(8.60±3.31)h], the lung rale absorption time[(10.51±2.24)d vs(9.00±2.19)d], lung consolidation absorption rate(72.00% vs 100.00%), the average hospitalization stay[(12.00±3.96)d vs(9.78±3.19)d]were significantly different( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared to low-dose of methylprednisolone, azithromycin combined with high-dose methylprednisolone therapy is better for RMPP.For the children with weakened immunity, better curative effect was obtained by IVIG.
