Practical Oncology Journal 2014;(2):182-187
The single brain metastases of lung cancer is defined as limited brain metastases .Mechanism of brain metastasis from lung cancer remains to be further studied .Based on surgery ,radiotherapy ,and chemother-apy,the comprehensive treatment on limited brain metastasis of non -small cell lung cancer gets a better result , however ,the indications for combination therapy must be strictly controlled .Increasing radiation doses of local tumor area,followed by whole-brain radiotherapy,can improve tumor local control rate and prolong overall sur-vival.Prophylactic irradiation of whole brain showed no evidence on prolonging the overall survival .For patients with poor general state,targeted drugs combined with whole brain radiotherapy can be tolerated well ,as well as prolonged the overall survival to ertain extent .

Objective To evaluate the relationship between echocardiographic epicardial adipose tissue thickness(EAT) and the presence and severity of coronary artery disease(CAD). Methods One hundredand forty-seven patients (101 patients with CAD and 46 patients with normal coronary arteries by diagnostic coronary angiography) were enrolled. EAT thickness was measured using 2-D echocardiographic parasternal long-and short-axis views. EAT thickness measurements were compared with angiographic findings. Results EAT was significantly higher in CAD group comparison to control group [(7.41 ± 1.63)mm vs (4.41±1.60) mm, P <0.01 ]. Furthermore, EAT increased with the severity of CAD [(8.53 ± 1.00)mm vs (6.36 ±1.73)mm, P <0.01]. Gensini's score significantly correlated with EAT (r = 0.71, P <0.01 ). EAT thickness ≥5.35 mm had 87.13% sensitivity and 80.42% specificity (ROC area 0. 89, P = 0.01,95% CI [0.84 - 0.9;]) for predicting CAD. Conclusions EAT thickness, which is easily and non-invasively evaluated by transthoracic echocardiography, can be an adjunctive marker to classical risk factors for the prediction of CAD, it was significantly correlated with the severity of coronary artery disease.

Objective:To evaluate the application values of small FOV surface coil and BLADE sequence in MR imaging on assessment of talar cartilage injury of ankle joint under traction.Methods:The clinical and imaging data of 53 patients with ankle cartilage injury in the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from December 2018 to July 2020 were prospectively analyzed. All patients underwent the following MR sequences: sequence Ⅰ was fast spin echo proton density weighted (FSE-PD) BLADE sequence with surface coil small FOV, and sequence Ⅱ was FSE-PD-BLADE imaging of small FOV under horizontal load traction of ankle joint. Paired sample Wilcoxon rank sum test was used to compare the thickness of talus dome cartilage, cartilage space and subjective assessment score of image quality (including the outline of the upper surface of the cartilage at the injury, the thickness of the cartilage layer at the injury, the rupture of the cartilage at the injury, the relationship between cartilage and subchondral bone, subchondral bone collapse or trabecular fracture line) between sequence I and sequence Ⅱ.Results:There was significant difference in the thickness of central cartilage of talus between sequence Ⅰ and sequence Ⅱ [0.70 (0.60, 0.90) mm and 0.80 (0.70, 0.90) mm, Z=-2.900, P=0.004, respectively]. There was no significant difference in the thickness of medial and lateral talus cartilage between sequence Ⅰ and sequence Ⅱ (P>0.05). There were significant differences between sequence Ⅰ and sequence Ⅱ in the center [0.10 (0, 0.15), 0.89(0.63, 1.00) mm], medial [0.10(0, 0.31), 1.20(0.70, 1.25) mm] and lateral cartilage space [0.18(0.08, 0.23), 0.90(0.76, 0.94)mm] (all P<0.001). As for the subjective assessment score of talus cartilage injury, except for score in subchondral bone collapse or bone trabecular fracture line between sequence Ⅱ and sequence Ⅰ ( Z=-1.480, P=0.139), significant differences were found in all other scores ( P<0.05). Conclusion:MRI of the ankle under traction is safe and feasible. Under the condition of horizontal traction, small FOV surface coil combined with BLADE sequence can better display talus cartilage injury.

Objective To investigate the correlation between epicardial fat thickness and non dipper hypertension.Methods A total of 150 subjects was included in the study,of which 50 were in the non dipper hypertension group,the same in the non dipper hypertension group and the healthy control group.History collection and routine laboratory tests,ultrasonic measurement of epicardial fat thickness,and 24 hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring were carried on all subjects.Epicardial fat thickness between groups was compared to primarily analyze the correlation of epicardial fat thickness and non dipper type hypertension.The optimal screening positive value in epicardial fat thickness of non dipper type primary hypertension was obtained by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and maximum Youden index.Results When non dipper hypertension group and non-dipper hypertension group were compared,epicardial fat thickness was significantly increased [(6.30 ± 0.94) mm vs (5.92 ± 0.75) mm,P < 0.05],as compared dipper hypertension group to healthy group,the epicardial fat thickness was significantly increased [(5.92 ±0.75)mm vs (5.50 ±0.13)mm,P <0.05].Epicardial fat thickness and non dipper type primary hypertension were linearly related (r =0.43,P < 0.05),and epicardial fat thickness in diagnosis of non dippers primary hypertension optimal screening positive value was 6.01 mm.Conclusions There is a close relationship of epicardial fat thickness and non dipper hypertension.

Objective To compare the accuracy rate of talar osteochondral lesions between the small field of view (FOV) surface coil MR imaging and 2D FSE proton density weighted imaging (2D-FSE-PD),3D-SPACE sequences MR imaging with boot-shaped coil.Methods Totally 43 patients (45 ankles) underwent 3D-SPACE sequence after 2D-FSE-PD sequence scanning using the boot-shaped coil,then the PDWI sequence was scanning after the boot-shaped coil was replaced by the small FOV surface coil at 1.5T MRI.The results of the arthroscopic examinations was regarded as the standard for assessing the accuracy rate of the three methods.Results The accuracy rate of 2D-FSE-PD sequence with small FOV surface coil was 86.67% (39/45),the accuracy rate of 2D-FSE-PD sequence with boot coil was 60.00% (27/45),the accuracy rate of 3D-SPACE sequence with boot coil was 68.89% (31/45).The accuracy rate of small FOV surface coil was higher than those of boot coil used 3D-SPACE sequence (x2 =4.114,P =0.002) and boot coil used 2D-FSE-PD sequence (x2 =8.182,P<0.001).There was not significant difference between 3D-SPACE sequence using boot coil and 2D-FSE-PD sequence using boot coil (x2 =0.776,P=0.125).Conclusion Compared with the 2D-FSE-PD and 3D-SPACE sequences with boot-shaped coil,the small surface coil scanning with routine sequence can show talar osteochondral lesions better.
