Objective To investigate the value of multiple sequential MRI in the differential diagnosis of vater ampulla carcinoma (VPC).Methods MRI data of 53 patients with VPC confirmed by surgery and pathology were analyzed retrospectively,which included 17ampullary carcinomas,15 pancreatic head carcinomas,10 duodenal papillary carcinomas and 11 distal common bile duct carcinomas.All patients underwent routine MRI plain scan,MRCP and multi-phase dynamic enhancement scan for the upper abdomen.The morphological characteristics and model of multi-phase dynamic enhancement of the tumor,and the morphological changes of pancreaticobiliary duct were focused,and relevant data were also measured.Results The differences of tumor size,central location,and signal homogeneity among the four different histological types showed statistical significance(P＜0.05),and their patterns of multi-phase dynamic enhancement also had differences.Double-segment sign was most found in VPC (26/53),four-segment sign was easy showed in pancreatic head carcinoma (8/15)and three-segment sign in distal common bile duct carcinoma (8/11).Beak sign was common seen in ampullary carcinoma(10/17),rat-tail sign was easy discovered in pancreatic head carcinoma (7/15) and truncated sign in distal common bile duct carcinoma(10/11).Diameter of major pancreatic duct in pancreatic head carcinoma was maximum and minimum in distal common bile duct carcinoma,and their difference had statistical significance(P＜0.05).Distance between obstructive end of bile common duct and major papilla of duodenum,and between obstructive end of major pancreatic duct and major papilla of duodenum as well as the pancreaticobiliary conjunction angle in pancreatic head carcinoma and distal common bile duct carcinoma were greater than that in ampullary carcinoma and duodenal papillary carcinoma.Conclusion MRI can prominently demonstrate various imaging characteristics of VPC with different histological origins.It is very valuable in the differential diagnosis of VPC with different histological types by comprehensive analysis of these findings.

Objective To systematically evaluate qualitative studies on the experience of transition from adolescent to adult medical care for patients with congenital heart disease(CHD),and to provide a reference for exploring CHD transition management options and developing intervention strategies.Methods A computerized search of PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,EBSCO,CINAHL,China Knowledge Network,Wanfang database,Vipshop database,and China Biomedical Literature Database for qualitative studies on the transition experience of CHD patients from adolescence to adult medical care was conducted for the period from the establishment of the database to April 2023.The quality of the literature was evaluated using the Joanna Briggs Institute(JBI)Australian Centre for Evidence-Based Health Care Quality Assessment Criteria for Qualitative Research(2016),and the results were integrated using meta-integration methods.Results A total of 9 studies were included,and 49 research results were extracted,and 11 categories were summarized.The final synthesis included 4 integrated results:①Complex attitudes towards healthcare transition,with both attachment and expectation:attachment to paediatric healthcare providers,expectation of transition to adult healthcare providers.(2)Facing multiple healthcare transition challenges:lack of adequate preparation for healthcare transition,parents withdrawing from the role of disease manager,large differences in services between paediatric and adult healthcare providers.③Expect to receive multiple supports:expect to receive comprehensive health education from healthcare personnel,expect healthcare institutions to set up healthcare transition counselling clinics and achieve handover of illness,expect to receive companionship and support from parents,expect to receive understanding and help from peers.④ Per-ceived benefits of medical transition:increased ability to manage illness,role change and personal growth.Conclusion Adolescents with CHD have a complex experience of transitioning to adult healthcare,and healthcare professionals should be attentive to their feelings,encourage them to deal with challenges positively,and provide adequate information and joint parental and peer support to facilitate a smooth transition to adult healthcare for adolescents.
