Journal of Chinese Physician 2001;0(03):-
Objective To describe the clinical features and observe the effect of vitrectomy on traumatic avulsion of vitreous base with giant retinal dialysis.Methods Seven cases with giant retinal dialysis(rang 120~150?) secondary to traumatic avulsion of vitreous base and PVR grade B to C 3 were retrospectively reviewed.All eyes had recieved vitrectomy,scleral buckle and lenses removed,and six eyeballs underwent postoperative sequential fluid-gas exchange.Results In most cases,the dialyses and avulsed vitreous base developed in the temponate quadrants and complicated lenses dislocation,pupilloparalysis,and vitreous hemorrhage.All cases attained success after disappearance of the intraocular tamponate.The major complication was elevated intraocular pressure,which was transient.Conclusions Giant retinal dialysis may result from traumatic avulsion of vitreous base.These dialysis often become clinical manifestation for several days or longer following ocular contusion.Vitrectomy is a very effective management for these cases.
4.Negative feedback effection of DNA methylation on expression of DNMT1 in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus
Chinese Journal of Immunology 2016;32(4):542-545,552
Objective:To analyse the whole DNA methylation status , expression of DNMT1 and DNA methylation status of DNMT1 promoter from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus ( SLE) .To assess the negative feedback effection of DNA methylation on the expression of DNMT1 in the patients with SLE.Methods:The whole DNA methylation status in T cells from 34 SLE patients and 23 healthy controls was assessed by the specific monoclonal antibodies to 5-methylcytosine (5-mc) and the DNA methylation status of DNMT1 promoter was assessed by the Bisulfite Conversion Kit and sequencing.Real time RT-PCR was applied to analyse DNMT 1 mRNA levels in T cells from the patients and controls.Results: SLE patients had siginificantly whole DNA hypomethylation than controls(P<0.05),and the whole DNA methylation was negative correlated with the SLE-DAI.There was no difference in levels of DNA methylation of DNMT1 promoter between patients and controls ,also no correlation between the levels of DNA methylation of DNMT 1 promoter and DNMT1 mRNA.Conclusion:There was no negative feedback effection of DNA methylation on the expression of DNMT 1 in the patients with SLE.The mechanism of lower expression of DNMT 1 in patients with SLE should be studied further.
5.Histological subtypes classification of non-small cell lung cancers using 18F-FDG PET-based radiomics
Chinese Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging 2021;41(5):268-274
Objective:To distinguish lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) from squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET-based radiomic features. Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed in 182 patients (109 males, 73 females, age (59.0±8.3) years) with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT scan between January 2018 and December 2019 in Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. All patients had been diagnosed pathologically with lung ADC or SCC. The patients were divided into a training set ( n=91) and a validation set ( n=91) using simple random sampling method. Radiomic features were extracted from the PET images of segmented tumors using the Python package. The minimum redundancy maximum relevance feature selection algorithm and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator were employed to select informative and non-redundant features, and a radiomics signature score (rad-score) was developed. Differences of rad-score between groups were compared by Mann-Whitney U test. Multivariate logistic regression was applied to select the important factors. A combined model was constructed based on the clinical variable and radiomics signature. The predictive performance of models was analyzed and compared using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and Delong test. Results:Four radiomic features, namely HHL_first order_maximum, LHL_first order_entropy, HHH_ gray level dependence matrix_large dependence high gray level emphasis (GLDM_LDHGLE), HHL_GLDM_LDHGLE (H/L represent the high/low pass filter) were selected to build the rad-score. The rad-score showed a significant ability to discriminate between different histological subtypes in the two sets(training set: -1.30(-1.70, -1.04) vs -0.60 (-1.11, 0.20), z=-4.61, P<0.001); validation set: -1.31(-1.66, -0.96) vs -0.73(-1.02, -0.24), z=-4.76, P<0.001). The area under the curve (AUC) of the rad-score were equal to 0.815 (95% CI: 0.723-0.906) in the training set, and 0.813 (95% CI: 0.726-0.901) in the validation set, respectively, which were larger than those of the clinical variables (smoking had the best prediction performance, training set: 0.721 (95% CI: 0.617-0.810), validation set: 0.726 (95% CI: 0.623-0.814)), however, the difference was not significant ( z values: 1.319, 1.324, both P>0.05). When the clinical variable (smoking) and radiomics signature were combined, the complex model showed a better performance in the classification of histological subtypes, with the AUC increased to 0.862 (95% CI: 0.785-0.940; sensitivity: 88.00%(22/25), specificity: 72.73%(48/66)) in the training set and 0.854 (95% CI: 0.776-0.933; sensitivity: 75.00%(21/28), specificity: 84.13%(53/63)) in the validation set. The AUC values were significantly higher than those of the clinical variable (smoking; training set: z=3.257, P<0.001; validation set: z=3.872, P<0.001). Conclusion:Individualized diagnosis model incorporating with smoking and radiomics signature can help differentiate lung cancer subtypes in a non-invasive, repeatable modality.

Objective To investigate whether gastric hypersensitivity exists in functional dyspepsia patients, and to observe the number of mast cells in proximal gastric mucosa in gastric hypersensitivity patients and the change of mast cell degranulation after stimulation so as to evaluate the role of mast cells in gastric hypersensitivity. Methods Gastric sensation threshold was determined using barostat in 40 functional dyspepsia (FD) patients and 15 controls. Twenty three patients were divided into two groups on the basis of perception threshold: hypersensitivity group (FD H) and normal sensation group (FD N). Mast cells were stained by immunohistochemistry method, mast cell number was calculated by microscopy and the average optical density valves( A ) of mast cell were obtained by microspectrophotometry (MSP). The ultrastructure of mast cell was observed under electromicroscopy. Results Gastric sensation threshold (i.e. perception, discomfort and pain threshold) was significantly lower in FD patients than in controls ( P
