Abstract: Objective To investigate the diagnostic efficacy of rifampin-resistant real-time fluorescent quantitative nucleic acid amplification detection technology (GeneXpert MTB/RIF) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) combined with peripheral blood tuberculosis infection T cell spot test (T-SPOT) and tuberculosis antibody (TB-Ab) in smear-negative pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods The clinical data of 114 cases of clinically diagnosed smear-negative pulmonary tuberculosis, 80 cases of non-tuberculous pulmonary diseases and 22 cases of smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis in our hospital from January 2019 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The detection results of peripheral blood T-SPOT, TB-Ab and BALF GeneXpert in the three groups were analyzed. The sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, positive predictive value, false negative rate, false positive rate and Youden index of the three detection methods were compared. The differences in the positive detection rate of smear-negative pulmonary tuberculosis between the separate detection and the combined detection of the three methods were compared. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was performed to calculate the area under the curve (AUC). Results The sensitivity of BALF GeneXpert and peripheral blood T-SPOT and TB-Ab was 66.91%, 80.88% and 90.44%, respectively. The specificity was 98.75%, 73.75% and 41.25%, respectively; the diagnostic coincidence rates were 78.70%, 78.24% and 72.22%, respectively, which were higher than 70.00%. In the smear-negative pulmonary tuberculosis group, the positive detection rates of these three methods in the smear-negative pulmonary tuberculosis group were 63.15%, 79.82% and 90.35%, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant compared with those in the non-tuberculosis pulmonary disease group (all P<0.01). The positive detection rate of the three combined methods in the smear-negative pulmonary tuberculosis group was 96.49 %, which was significantly higher than that of TB-GeneXpert method and T-SPOT, and the differences were statistically significant (χ2=37.283, P<0.01; χ2=13.612, P<0.01); the Youden index of combined detection was significantly higher than that of single detection, and the AUC of combined detection was 0.977, which was significantly higher than that of single detection. Conclusion BALF GeneXpert combined with peripheral blood T-SPOT and TB-Ab can significantly improve the diagnostic rate of bacterial-negative pulmonary tuberculosis, providing a strong basis for guiding clinical treatment.

OBJECTIVETo study COX-2 expression in H. pylori infected gastric mucosal epithelia and its significance in the carcinogenesis of the stomach.
METHODSRapid urease test and histological examination with basic magnenta staining were used to assess the status of H. pylori infection in the stomach. COX-2 was detected immunohistochemically.
RESULTSCOX-2 immunostaining was positive in 1 out of 12 cases with H. pylori-negative gastric mucosa and also in 1 out of 10 cases with H. pylori-positive gastric mucosa without macroscopic alterations, while COX-2 expression was found to be positive in 5 out of 9 cases with H. pylori related superficial gastritis with mucosal erosions. COX-2 expression was detected in 5 out of 10 cases with H. pylori-positive mild atrophic gastritis, 8 out of 10 cases with H. pylori-positive moderate-severe atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia, and 6 out of 8 cases with H. pylori-positive moderate-severe dysplasia. COX-2 expression was positive in 22 out of 32 cases of gastric cancer.
CONCLUSIONH. pylori may induce COX-2 expression of gastric mucosal epithelia in chronic superficial gastritis, which is related to the development of mucosal injury. According to gastric mucosal carcinogenesis pattern up-regulation of COX-2 expression is associated with gastric mucosal carcinogenesis, and involved in the early development of premalignant lesions.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and TACE alone for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), Pubmed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Wanfang Datebases were searched for the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and retrospective cohort studies from the establishment of the databases to January 2014. The bibliographies of the included studies were searched, too. After study selection, assessment, data collection and analysis were undertaken, we performed this meta-analysis by using the RevMan5.2 software. Seventeen studies involving 1116 patients met the inclusion criteria with 530 treated with RFA-plus-TACE and 586 with TACE alone. The results of meta-analysis showed that the combination of TACE and RFA was obviously associated with higher 1-, 2-, and 3-year overall survival rates (OR1-year=3.98, 95% CI 2.87-5.51, P<0.00001; OR2-year=3.03, 95% CI 2.10-4.38, P<0.00001; OR3-year=7.02, 95% CI 4.14-11.92, P<0.00001) than TACE alone. The tumor complete necrosis rate in patients treated with TACE and RFA was higher than that of TACE alone (OR=13.86, 95% CI 8.04-23.89, P<0.00001). And there was a significant difference in local recurrence rate between two different kinds of treatment (OR=0.24, 95%CI 0.14-0.44, P<0.00001). Additionally, combination of TACE and RFA was associated with higher complete tumor necrosis rates than TACE mono-therapy in the treatment of HCC. However, RFA plus TACE was found to be associated with a lower local recurrence rate than TACE monotherapy. TACE-plus-RFA treatment was associated with a higher response rate (RR) than the TACE-alone treatment (OR=3.90, 95% CI=2.37-6.42, P<0.00001). TACE-plus-RFA treatment did not differ from the TACE-alone treatment in terms of stable disease (SD) rate (OR=0.38, 95% CI=0.11-1.26, P=0.11). Meta-analyses showed that the combination of RFA and TACE was associated with a significantly lower progressive disease (PD) rate (OR=0.15, 95% CI=0.05-0.43, P=0.0005). The rate of AFP reducing or returning to normal in serum in RFA plus TACE group was obviously lower than TACE alone group (OR=4.62, 95% CI 2.56-8.34, P<0.00001). The effect of TACE plus RFA for HCC is better than TACE mono-therapy. The combined therapy can elevate the patients' overall survival rate, tumor necrosis rate and the rate of AFP reducing or returning to normal in serum and decrease local recurrence rate, PD rate compared with TACE alone.

Objective To predict a value of ischemia modified albumin (IMA) levels for assessing secondary cerebral infarction in patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) in anterior circulation.Methods 105 patients with TIA in anterior circulation admitted to the hospital within 3 hours were retrospectively studied.Combined with ABCD2 score,the correlations of IMA levels at 3 h,6 h and 12 h with secondary cerebral infarction after anterior circulation TIA were analyzed.Results IMA level was 75.28 u/L within 3h after TIA,and the sensitivity and specificity of TIA in anterior circulation were 66.7% and 76.2% respectively.In the total of 105 patients,16 cases (15.2%) suffered from secondary cerebral infarction within 7d,and 21 cases (20.0%) within 8~30d.The serum IMA levels were (87.43±19.89)U/L,(63.88±12.51)U/L and (61.21±12.28)U/L at 3h,6h and 12h after TIA,respectively.A simple analysis showed that there was a linear correlation between the IMA level and ABCD2 scores (P=0.000,r=0.666).Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the increased IMA level within 3h,and moderate to high ABCD2 score were the risk factors for secondary cerebral infarction after TIA in anterior circulation (P=0.012,0.041).Conclusions Early detection of IMA has a clinical value similar to ABCD2 score to predict secondary cerebral infarction in patients with TIA in anterior circulation.

Objective To evaluate the association of magnetic resonance angiography (MRA),diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and the ABCD2 score assessments with secondary cerebral infarction after transient ischemic attack (TIA).Methods Intracranial vascular MRA,cranial DWI and ABCD2 score were retrospectively analyzed in 162 cases with TIA.The impact of TIA on survival time was assessed using the univariate Kaplan-Meier curve by Log-rank test.Hazard ratio (HR) and 95 % confidence interval (CI) of secondary cerebral infarction after TIA predicted by MRA,DWI and ABCD2 score were analyzed by Cox multivariable regression.Results Among the 162 patients with first attack of TIA,86 cases (53.1 %) developed cerebral infarction within 90 d,of which 22 cases (13.6%) developed secondary cerebral infarction within 0 7 d,27 cases (16.7%) within 8~30d and 37 cases (22.8%) within 31-90 d.Single factor analysis by Kaplan-Meier curve showed that moderate to severe intracranial vascular stenosis diagnosed by MRA,positive DWI and moderate to high ABCD2 score were obviously related to cerebral infarction after first attack of TIA (all P<0.001 or 0.01).Cox multifactor risk model indicated that age ≥70 y,moderate to severe intracranial vascular stenosis,positive DWI,moderate to high ABCD2 score were the risk factors for secondary cerebral infarction within 90 d after TIA (HR=1.782,2.245,1.964,1.204,95%CI:1.171-2.256,1.627 3.097,1.273-3.031,1.050-1.381,respectively,P<0.05,0.01 or 0.001).Conclusions Intracranial artery stenosis examination may be more valuable than DWI and ABCD2 score in evaluating the outcome of TIA.
