Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive and rare B-cell lymphoma, accounting for around 6%-8% of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Up to now, there are a lot of studies and reports on the biological behavior, diagnostic criteria and treatments of MCL worldwide. However, due to its high invasiveness, there are still many problems to be solved in terms of prognosis and treatment. This article introduces MCL and its progress in the unsolved clinical problems.

Objective:To evaluate the value of endovascular recanalization and hybrid recanalization for chronic internal carotid artery occlusion(COICA), and to evaluate its feasibility, safety, success rate, and clinical outcomes.Methods:Totally 35 patients who received endovascular recanalization or hybrid recanalization with symptomatic COICA were enrolled from January 2019 to December 2019 in Department of Cerebrovascular Disease,Zhengzhou University People′s Hospital. The clinical characteristics, treatment strategies, success rate, and major events of the patients were analyzed retrospectively.Results:Thirty of 35 patients were successfully recanalized. Among them, hybrid recanalization was performed in 3 cases, carotid endarterectomy was performed in 1 case, and endovascular recanalization was performed in 26 cases, 5 patients failed because they could not reach the distal true cavity. Among the successful patients, 5 patients had operation-related complications, 3 patients had embolism cerebral infarction, 1 patient had hyperperfusion cerebral hemorrhage, 1 patient still had transient ischemic attack after operation. All patients were followed up clinically, 2 patients had reoccurrence of obstruction, 2 patient had restenosis, the remaining patients had no hemodynamic stenosis or reocclusion.Conclusion:In highly-selected cases, intracavitary recanalization for symptomatic COICA is feasible, relatively safe and effective.

Objective:To investigate the morphological and hemodynamic stress characteristics of infundibular dilatation of the posterior communicating artery.Methods:From January 2018 to May 2020, 30 patients with infundibular dilatation of the posterior communicating artery (observation group) found by digital substraction angiography (DSA) for suspecting as having equivocal posterior communicating artery aneurysm in our hospital were selected. The angle between posterior communicating artery and internal carotid artery, and hemodynamics stress parameters at the infundibular dilatation of the posterior communicating artery (total pressure and shear force) were measured by DSA and quantitatively analyzed by computational fluid dynamics methods. Thirty patients without intracranial aneurysm and with normal posterior communicating arteries admitted to our hospital at the same period were used as control group.Results:The mean value of the bending angle between the posterior communicating artery and internal carotid artery in the control group was ([80.1±8.4]°), which was significantly higher than that in the observation group ([73.2±5.8]°, P<0.05). The shear force and total pressure of infundibular dilatation of the posterior communicating artery of the observation group ([8.32±0.70] Pa and [85.61±6.04] Pa), which were significantly higher than those of the control group at the same locations ([3.95±0.28] Pa and [25.72±7.18] Pa, P<0.05). Conclusion:There are significant differences in hemodynamic stress between the normal posterior communicating artery and the infundibular dilatation of the posterior communicating artery, which might play an important role in triggering the formation of aneurysms.

Objective:To investigate the safety and effectiveness of Willis covered stent in patients having carotid artery rupture during transnasal endoscopic pituitary tumor resection.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed. Six patients having carotid artery rupture during transnasal endoscopic pituitary tumor resection admitted to the 3 hospitals from May 2016 to December 2019 were chosen; their clinical data were collected. The surgical processes and complications were concluded, and the prognoses were evaluated by modified Rankin scale (mRS).Results:One patient was treated with intraoperative simple tamponade compression for hemostasis, and died for massive intracranial hemorrhage 2 weeks after surgery. Five patients were occluded by Willis covered stents; the occluded success rate was 100% but ophthalmic arteries were blocked in all. During the perioperative period, diabetes insipidus occurred in one patient and incomplete oculomotor paralysis occurred in one patient; 5 patients were followed up for 3-12 months: MRI indicated subtotal resection of tumor in 4 patients and total resection in one patient, no new bleeding or ischemic stroke events occurred in these 5 patients, and the prognosis was good.Conclusion:Willis covered stent is safe and effective in patients having carotid artery rupture during transnasal endoscopic pituitary tumor resection.

ObjectiveThis study aims to investigate the changes in fungal community diversity and volatile components during the aging process of Aquilariae Lignum Resinatum and explore the internal relationship between them. MethodAquilariae Lignum Resinatum samples with different aging years were collected. High-throughput sequencing was employed to analyze the fungal diversity and abundance， and α and β diversity indicators were calculated to reveal the composition and dynamic changes of the fungal community. In addition， the essential oils of Aquilariae Lignum Resinatum with different aging years were extracted， separated， and identified by two-dimensional gas chromatography-high resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometry. ResultA total of 61 compounds were identified from the volatile components of five groups of Aquilariae Lignum Resinatum samples， including 2 monoterpenes， 24 sesquiterpenoids， 1 diterpene， 13 aromatic hydrocarbons， 9 alkanes， and 12 other compounds. Among them， the volatile compounds isolated from the sample aged for 1 year had the largest number， and those from the sample aged for 2 years accounted for the largest proportion of the total components. The internal transcribed spacer（ITS） amplicon sequencing revealed that the fungi in the five groups of samples belonged to 162 genera. Kirschsteiniothelia， Aspergillus， Lasiodiplodia， Phaeoacremonium， and Trichoderma were the dominant fungal genera. The fungal diversity in the Aquilariae Lignum Resinatum sample aged for 4 years was significantly higher than that in the samples aged for 0 to 3 years. ConclusionThe volatile component content and composition of Aquilariae Lignum Resinatum altered dramatically during aging. The aging of Aquilariae Lignum Resinatum was accompanied by the increasing fungal diversity， decreasing relative content of aromatic hydrocarbons， and increasing relative content of sesquiterpenoids. In general， aging was beneficial to the transformation of sesquiterpenoids and the enrichment of fungi.
