Objective To obtain the elasticity value of non-mass-like breast lesions with supersonic shear wave elastrography (SWE), in order to observe the value of quantitative elastography with SWE in differential diagnosis of non-mass-like breast lesions. Methods SWE was performed in 80 non-mass-like breast lesions. Taking pathologic results as reference, quantitative elasticity value of the lesions were performed. The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity and speciifcity were calculated. Results In the 80 non-mass-like breast lesions, 37 lesions (46%) were malignant and 43 lesions (54%) were benign. The max and mean elasticity value of malignant lesions were (106.28±46.39) kPa and (51.02±30.06) kPa, and the max and mean elasticity value of benign lesions were (37.13±18.22) kPa and (26.44±15.62) kPa. There was statistical differences between malignant and benign lesions in max and mean elasticity values (t=15.328, 18.149, both P<0.05). Taking 61.25 kPa as the threshold of max elasticity value and 40.65 kPa as the threshold of mean elasticity value, the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity and speciifcity were 70.53%, 66.83%, 51.22%and 68.34%, 65.81%, 50.63%, respectively. When max elasticity was combined with conventional ultrasound (US), the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity and speciifcity were 84.17%, 92.28%and 68.39%, respectively. The diagnostic accuracy and speciifcity signiifcantly increased compared with conventional US (χ2=5.217, 9.652, both P<0.05). When mean elasticity was combined with conventional US, the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity and speciifcity were 82.35%, 90.66%, and 63.35%, respectively. The diagnostic accuracy and speciifcity signiifcantly increased compared with conventional US (χ2=5.084, 8.686, both P<0.05). Conclusions The diagnostic accuracy and speciifcity of SWE for non-mass-like breast lesions are not high. But when SWE is combined with conventional US, the diagnostic accuracy and speciifcity increase signiifcantly, which is very helpful for the diagnostic of non-mass-like breast lesions.

Objective To study the role of sodium nitroprusside in preventing pulmonary ische-mia-reperfusion injury and the possible mechanism. Methods Fourteen pigs were randomly divided into 2 groups: control group underwent controlled reperfusion with reperfusion solution (leukocyte-depleting blood modified buckberg perfusate = 4:1) for 10 min at lower pressure of 18 mm Hg and 37℃? 1℃ before removing the pulmonary artery clamp; experimental group were subjected to controlled reperfusion with reperfusion solution before removing the pulmonary artery clamp, followed by infusion of sodium nitroprusside (10?g?kg-1?min 1 for 10 min) via pulmonary artery. Blood oxygen pressure, pulmonary vascular resistance, pulmonary compliance and the changes in pulmonary oxygen-ation function were assessed 0. 5, 1 and 2 h later. After the trail, the contents of water, NO and MDA in pulmonary tissues were measured. Results In the experimental group, left lung oxygenation function and pulmonary compliance was significantly better (P

Objective To assess the clinical safety and effectiveness of Boomerang closure device (Boomerang Percutaneous Femoral Access Management System) applied to patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) and/or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods206 patients undergoing CAG and/or PCI were randomly divided into the heparin group and low molecular heparin (LWMH) group. The hemostasia success rate, hemostasia time, manual pressure time, device dwell time, complication rate and time to ambulation with each other of two groups were compared.ResultsThe heparin group and LWMH group both had high hemostasia success rate (98.06% and 99.03%), there wasn't significant difference between two groups. There was one patient with hematoma formation in the heparin group and LWMH group respectively. There was no significant difference between two groups in hemostasia time, manual pressure time, the device dwell time and time to ambulation.ConclusionAfter CAG and/or PCI, administered heparin and low molecular heparin is no effect on Boomerang closure device, and Boomerang closure device has a high hemostasia success rate.

ObjectiveTo explore the association of smoking to the Aspirin and Clopidogrel antiplatelet in patients with stable angina after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods241 smoking patients and 252 non-smoking patients underwent PCI for stable coronary artery disease, all patients had taken aspirin 100 mg/d for 7 d or more. The arachidonic acid (AA)- and adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-induced platelet aggregation were tested as they got in hospital. Then, they accepted Clopidogrel 300 mg as loading dose, continued with 75 mg/d for 3 d. The ADP-induced platelet aggregation were re-tested. ResultsThe incidence of aspirin resistance (AR) and aspirin semiresponder (ASR) was 19.1% in all the cases, and was 25.5% in smoking group, 14.3% in non-smoking group (P=0.027). Age (OR=3.79，95%CI: 1.77～8.12) and smoking (OR=1.98，95%CI: 1.18～4.43) were the independent risk factors of AR and ASR. The incidence of Clopidogrel resistance was 19.5% in all the cases, and was 13.2% in smoking group, 24.3% in non-smoking group (P=0.03). Smoking (OR=0.22，95%CI: 0.09～0.54) may reduce the risk of Clopidogrel resistance. ConclusionSmoking increased the risk of AR and ASR, but reduced the risk of Clopidogrel resistance.

Objective To investigate the effects of PM2.5 on tear film function and corneal epithelial structure in mice.Methods Totally 24 male BALB/c mice (24 eyes) were divided into two groups:group A (with PBS eye drops,n =12),group B (5 mg · mL-1 PM2.5 eye drop group,n =12).PBS and PM2.5 eye drop were given with four times per day for 7 consecutive days in right eye.Tear secretion level was measured with phenol red thread.Break-up time (BUT) of tear film was tested,and corneal fluorescein staining (FL) was scored before therapy and 1 day,4 days and 7 days after droppings and HE staining was performed 7 days after droppings,respectively.Results There was no significant difference in the tear secretion levels,BUT,FL between the groups A and B before treatment (all P ＞ 0.05).At 4 days,7 days after treatment with PM2.5,the mean differences of the group B showed all items significantly changed compared with those before treatment (all P ＜ 0.05).For the group A,there was no statistical change in tear secretion levels,BUT,FL at 7 days after treatment (all P ＞ 0.05).There were statistical differences in all items between group A and B at each time point (all P ＜ 0.05).At 7 days after therapy,the mean layers of corneal epithelial cells in the group A (4 ± 1) was significantly lower than that in the group B (7 ±l) (P ＜0.05).The group B showed that the whole corneal fluorescein staining obviously increased,and corneal epithelial cell layer was thickened.Conclusion PM2.5 can influence tears film function and damage the corneal epithelial structure in mice.

Objective:To evaluate the reliability of several formulae for estimating the quantity of glucose absorption of peritoneal dialysate (GA).Methods:Forty-four patients receiving continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) were enrolled in this study. The quantities of GA obtained from actual measurement and estimation were compared to judge whether there was statistical difference between them.Results:The GA quantities estimated by Grodstein formula, Bodnar formula, K/DOQI formula, empirical method A (based on 60% absorption rate) and empirical method B (based on 50% absorption rate in daytime and 80% absorption rate in night) were as follows: 81.3 (64.2, 118.0) g, (97.8±19.7) g, (94.1±25.8) g, 87.1 (76.2, 109.0) g and (89.5±16.0) g, respectively; the actually measured GA quantity was [94.2 (77.5, 111.6)] g. Wilcoxon signed rank test of paired samples showed that only the results of Bodnar formula and K/DOQI formula did not present statistical differences from actually measured result.Conclusion:It can be considered to use Bodnar formula and K/DOQI formula to roughly estimate the GA quantity of CAPD patients, but to accurately understand the individual GA value, actual measurement is still required.
