Objective To evaluate the perfusion findings of solitary brain metastasis using MR arterial spin labeling (ASL)imaging,and make a comparison with dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC)imaging.Methods Twenty-three patients with pathologically proven solitary brain metastasis from lung cancer underwent ASL and DSC imaging.The ASL cerebral blood flow (CBF),DSC regional CBF (rCBF)and DSC regional cerebral blood volume (rCBV)were measured and compared between the tumor and the contralateral brain parenchyma.Pearson correlation test was performed to assess the relations between ASL and DSC measurements.Results Brain metastasis showed ring-like hyper-perfusion on ASL and DSC mappings.ASL CBF values of the tumor and the contralateral brain parenchyma were(54.872±21.131)mL·min-1·100 g-1and (21.109±4.788)mL·min-1·100 g-1,respectively (P<0.01).DSC rCBF values of the tumor and the contralateral brain parenchyma were (1.094 8±0.309 3)mL·min-1·100 g-1and (0.495 7±0.154 1)mL· min-1·100 g-1,respectively (P<0.01).DSC rCBV values of the tumor and the contralateral brain parenchyma were (1.753 1±0.545 5)mL/100 g and (0.729 9±0.215 8)mL/100 g,respectively (P<0.01).There was a strong correlation between ASL CBF and DSC rCBF (r=0.898,P<0.01),and there was no correlation between ASL CBF and DSC rCBV.Conclusion ASL can evaluate the CBF of brain metastasis as DSC dose. It requires no contrast agent administration and can be used in daily clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of sputum heparin binding protein(HBP) in sepsis related acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).Methods:This study was a prospective case-control study.A total of 134 children with sepsis who were admitted in PICU at Hunan Children′s Hospital from January 2020 to November 2021 were included, including 63 children who had completed fiberoptic bronchoscopy.The 63 children were divided into sepsis without ARDS group, sepsis with mild ARDS group, and sepsis with moderate to severe ARDS group according to the presence and severity of ARDS.Sputum was collected and HBP was detected in all children with sepsis when they were admitted to the hospital.The alveolar lavage fluid within 72 hours of admission was reserved for HBP.The levels of interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)- α were detected, and the blood biochemistry, pulmonary imaging, pediatric critical case score and other data within 72 hours were collected.Results:(1) Among 63 children with fiberoptic bronchoscopy, 29 were in sepsis without ARDS group, 18 were in the sepsis with mild ARDS group, and 16 were in the sepsis with moderate to severe ARDS group.There was no significant difference in the pediatric critical case score and the location of primary infection focus among the three groups at admission.The primary infection focus was respiratory system in 36 cases, whose sputum HBP level was (42.1±9.8) ng/mL, and 27 children with other systems infection, whose sputum HBP level was (37.8±10.8) ng/mL, there was no significant difference between two groups ( t=1.65, P=0.104). (2) There were significant differences in sputum HBP, alveolar lavage fluid HBP, IL-6 and TNF-α levels among sepsis with mild ARDS group, sepsis with moderate and severe ARDS group and sepsis without ARDS group ( P<0.05). The sputum HBP of 34 children with sepsis combined with ARDS was positively correlated with alveolar lavage fluid HBP, IL-6, TNF-α levels and lung injury score, and negatively correlated with SpO 2/FiO 2 ( P<0.05). (3)Among the 34 children with sepsis combined with ARDS, the sputum HBP concentration of children with invasive ventilation was significantly higher than that of children with non-invasive ventilation ( P<0.05). The sputum HBP concentration in children with three or more organ damage was significantly higher than that of children with two or less organ damage ( P<0.05). The sputum HBP concentration of dead children was higher than that of surviving children ( P<0.05). (4) The area under curve of sputum HBP for predicting ARDS was 0.772 (95% CI: 0.655~0.889). When the cut-off point value of sputum HBP was 27.9 mU/L, whose sensitivity and specificity were 70.6% and 79.3%, respectively.The area under curve of sputum HBP for predicting moderate and severe ARDS was 0.793 (95% CI: 0.661~0.926). When the cut-off point value of sputum HBP was 51.55 mU/L, whose sensitivity and specificity were 81.3% and 76.6%, respectively. Conclusion:Sputum HBP is elevated in children with sepsis and ARDS, which is related with the severity of the disease.Sputum HBP has a good predictive value for the diagnosis and severity of children with sepsis and ARDS, and can be used as a clinically effective and convenient evaluation index for children with sepsis related ARDS.

OBJECTIVETo study the immunohistochemical classification and prognosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
METHODSA total of 148 cases of DLBCL were classified into germinal center B-cell-like (GCB) and non-GCB/activated B-cell-like (ABC) subtypes by Hans, Choi and Tally immunohistochemical stain algorithms. The clinical features and survival data of GCB and non-GCB/ABC subtypes were compared. Multivariate analysis about clinical features and results of immunohistochemical stain algorithms was carried out by using Cox regression, with overall survival as the outcome.
RESULTSThe prevalence of GCB subtype was significantly lower than that of non-GCB/ABC subtype, as classified by whichever algorithms in the 148 DLBCL cases studied. The prevalence of GCB subtype by Tally algorithm was lowest. The prevalence of GCB subtype (19 cases, 16.7%) was also significantly lower than non-GCB/ABC subtype (95 cases, 83.3%; P = 0.000 1) in the 114 (77.0%) concordant cases by the three algorithms. There was no difference between GCB and non-GCB/ABC subtypes by the three algorithms in five-year overall survival rate and survival curve of the 80 DLBCL patients with follow-up data available (P > 0.05). Primary gastric DLBCL tended to show a higher prevalence of GCB subtype, a better five-year overall survival rate and survival curve than the other groups. Multivariate analysis showed that patient age (HR = 1.036, P = 0.001) and tumor stage (HR = 1.997, P = 0) were also significantly adverse predictors of overall survival.
CONCLUSIONThe Hans, Choi and Tally immunohistochemical stain algorithms cannot effectively classify Chinese DLBCL into different prognostic subtypes. Primary gastric DLBCL has different immunophenotype and outcome, as compared with DLCBL in other sites.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for preoperative hypoxemia in geriatric patients with hip fracture.Methods:A case-control study was used to analyze the clinical data of 99 geriatric patients with hip fracture admitted to Zhongda Hospital affiliated to Southeast University between November 2020 and August 2021. There were 29 males and 70 females, aged 67-96 years [(82.6±6.2)years]. The patients were divided into hypoxemia group ( n=51) and non-hypoxemia group ( n=48) using partial arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO 2)<80 mmHg while breathing room air at emergency as the reference standard. The two groups were compared in terms of sex, age, fracture types, body mass index (BMI), American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification, pulmonary diseases diagnosed by preoperative chest CT [atelectasis, pleural effusion, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)], time from injury to visit, New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification, Barthel index, KATZ index, modified Medicine Research Council (mMRC) dyspnea scale, numeric rating scale (NRS), smoking, drinking, comorbidities (hypertension, diabetes mellitus, Parkinson′s disease, Alzheimer′s disease, cerebral infarction, coronary atherosclerotic heart disease), body temperature, blood routine test at first examination (erythrocyte count, leukocyte count, C-reactive protein, hemoglobin), biochemistry (serum albumin, blood glucose, blood creatinine, blood urea nitrogen), electrolyte (serum potassium, serum sodium), and other related examinations [D-dimer, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), lactic acid]. Univariate analysis was performed to the correlation of those indicators with preoperative hypoxemia. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent risk factors for preoperative hypoxemia in geriatric patients with hip fracture. Results:Differences in sex, age, fracture types, BMI, pulmonary diseases diagnosed by preoperative chest CT, time from injury to visit, Barthel index, KATZ index, NRS, smoking, drinking, comorbidities, body temperature, first laboratory results of erythrocyte count, biochemistry, electrolyte and other related examinations were not statistically significant between the two groups (all P>0.05). The two groups showed statistical differences in ASA classification, NYHA classification, mMRC dyspnea scale, leukocyte count at first examination, C-reaction protein and hemoglobin (all P<0.05). Univariate analysis indicated that ASA classification, NYHA classification, mMRC dyspnea scale, leukocyte count at first examination and C-reaction protein were correlated with the occurrence of preoperative hypoxemia in geriatric patients with hip fracture (all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regressions analysis indicated that higher mMRC dyspnea scale ( OR=2.30, 95% CI 1.10-4.81, P<0.05), higher leukocyte count at first examination ( OR=1.24, 95% CI 1.05-1.45, P<0.05), higher level of C-reaction protein ( OR=1.02, 95% CI 1.01-1.03, P<0.05) and higher level of hemoglobin ( OR=1.04, 95% CI 1.01-1.07, P<0.05) were significantly correlated with the occurrence of preoperative hypoxemia in geriatric patients with hip fracture. Conclusion:Higher mMRC dyspnea scale, higher leukocyte count, higher level of C-reaction protein and higher level of hemoglobin are independent risk factors for preoperative hypoxemia in geriatric patients with hip fracture.
