Objective To evaluate the value of computed tomography(CT) and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) in diagnosis of avascular necrosis of the femoral head(ANFH). Methods The literatures of ANFH diagnosed with CT and MR imaging published in the last ten years were collected by searching. Of that,21 literatures were correspond for the standards in this study and were select-ed. These literatures in diagnosing ANFH with CT and MR imaging were analysed with Meta-analysis by the sofeware of StataSE10.1. Results MRI was more effective than CT in diagnosing ANFH. There was significantly different in statistics between them [OR=0.13,95%CI(0.03~0.51)]. Conclusion In comparison with CT,MRI is the better method in diagnosing ANFH.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of ultrasonography and MRI in the diagnosis of placenta accrete.Methods First,the relevant literatures about placenta accrete were retrieved at home and abroad,then the data were extracted and Meta-analysis was performed.The combined sensitivity and specificity of ultrasound and MRI and AUC were obtained.Results The combined sensitivity of ultrasonography was 0.80,specificity was 0.88,AUC was 0.88;combined sensitivity of MRI was 0.86,specificity was 0.90,AUC was 0.93.Conclusion Ultrasound and MRI are very valuable in the diagnosis of placenta accrete.However,MRI is a useful complement of ultrasound,and the diagnostic value is slightly better than that of ultrasound.The diagnostic value will be higher when they combined together.

Objective To investigate the value of MR on diagnosis of intracranial primary lymphoma in immunocompetent patients.Methods The MR features of 28 cases with pathology proved intracranial primary lymphoma were analyzed retrospectively.Conventional MRI scans,enhanced MRI scan were observed.Immunohistochemical staining were done and the results were compared with the MR imaging signs. Results Twenty-eight cases were all B-cell type Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma,16 cases were single lesion (57%)and 12 cases were multiple lesions (43%).The tumors mainly located in the deep white matter,7 cases in callus corpus and grew crossing the midline supratentorial.The lesions presented mass or node (20/28),11 cases showed massive edema.On T1WI,lesions were mostly hypo-or iso-intense to gray matter.On T2WI,tumors showed iso-or hyper-intense.All lesions presented hyper-or iso-to hyper-intense on diffusion weighted imaging(DWI).Most lesions show marked mass-like or nodular-like contrast enhancement on MR imaging,8 cases presented"incision sign",5 cases showed"fist sign"and 7 cases showed"butterfly-like".Immunohistochemical staining showed that GFAP(-) was 78.6% (22/28),as well as CD20 (+)96.4% (27/28),CD79α(+)67.9% (19/28),CD10(+)10.7% (3/28),Bcl-6 (+)75% (21/28),Mum1 (+)89.3% (25/28).Ki-67 was greater than or equal to 50% (22/28).Among the 28 patients,25 cases (89.3%) showed an"activated non-germinal center B-cell(non-GCB)"in origin and 3 cases(10.7%)were considered as a"GCB"subset.Conclusion The imaging features of marked mass-kike or nodular-like on MRI enhancement scan and hyper-or iso-to hyper-intense on DWI are helpful in the diagnosis and the differential diagnosis of intracranial primary lymphoma.

Objective:To understand the incidence of post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD) in fathers with premature infants and analyze the risk factors.Methods:Conveniently, the 203 fathers of premature infants in NICU of Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University of Shandong Province from May to August 2021 were selected as the subjects to fill in the general data questionnaire, Perinatal Post-traumatic stress disorder Questionnaire-Chinese edition (PPQ-C), Parents, Perception of Uncertainty Scale, Social Support Rating Scale, Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire. Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of PTSD and establish a nomogram model. ROC curve was used to verify the discrimination ofthe model. Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test and Calibration Plot were used to verify the calibration.Results:PPQ-C total score of 203 fathers was 17.17 ± 8.77, 81 fathers, symptoms were positive and the incidence of PTSD was 39.90%(81/203). Logistic regression analysis showed college degree ( OR = 0.297, 95% CI 0.116 - 0.763, P<0.05), very low birth weight ( OR = 2.491, 95% CI 1.027 - 6.044, P<0.05), sense of disease uncertainty ( OR = 1.038, 95% CI 1.012 - 1.066, P<0.05), negative coping style ( OR = 1.871, 95% CI 1.127 - 3.108, P<0.05) were risk factors of PTSD in fathers with premature infants. The nomogram model was established basing on the results of the Logistic regression analysis, and the ROC curve proved (AUC = 0.751) the model having a good discrimination.The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test ( P = 0.974) and the calibration plot demonstrated that the prediction values tends to coincide with the actual monitoring values. Conclusions:A higher incidence of PTSD was observed in fathers with hospitalized premature infant. It was related to education level, the infants′s birth weight, disease uncertainty and coping style. Therefore, the nurses should give information support and psychological guidance according to the individual situation of the infants′ father to reduce the incidence of PTSD.
