Objective To observe the value of MRI for differential diagnosis of ovarian granulosa cell tumor(OGCT)and ovarian thecoma-fibroma(OTF).Methods Data of 37 females with OGCT(OGCT group)and 74 with OTF(OTF group)were retrospectively analyzed.MRI parameters were compared between groups.Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed,and the efficacy of each parameter alone and their combination for distinguishing OGCT and OTF were observed.Results Significant differences of cystic-solid classification,degree of cystic changes,the maximum diameter of cyst area of lesions,T2WI signal,enhancement degree and apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)of the solid part of lesions,presence of honeycomb sign/cheese sign,presence of tumor blood vessels and bleeding were found between groups(all P＜0.05).Degree of cystic changes,ADC and presence of honeycomb sign/cheese sign were impact factors of MRI for distinguishing OGCT and OTF.The area under the curve(AUC)of the above three for distinguishing OGCT and OTF was 0.834,0.868 and 0.744,respectively,and of the combination was 0.934,greater than any alone(all P＜0.05).Conclusion MRI features such as degree of cystic changes,ADC and presence of honeycomb sign/cheese sign were helpful for distinguishing OGCT and OTF.

Objective To assess the value of magnetic resonance imaging compilation(MAGiC)sequence in predicting lympho-vascular space invasion(LVSI)in early cervical cancer.Methods The data of 48 patients with cervical cancer confirmed by pathology were collected retrospectively,and classified into LVSI-positive group(n=29)and LVSI-negative group(n=19)according to postop-erative pathological results.MAGiC sequence images of patients were obtained before injecting contrast agents,then the region of interest(ROI)was delineated along the largest dimension edge of the lesion,and T1,T2 and proton density(PD)values were automatically generated by the software.Predictors were screened by univariate analysis and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were drawn to assess their diagnostic efficacy for predicting LVSI in cervical cancer.Results Significant differences were found in T1 and PD values between LVSI-positive and LVSI-negative groups(P=0.003,P=0.017).There were no significant differences in T2 values between the two groups(P=0.414).The area under the curve(AUC)for T1 and PD values to predict LVSI status were 0.73 and 0.721,respectively.Conclusion LVSI-positive group of cervical cancer has lower T1 and PD values than LVSI-negative group based on MAGiC sequence.The MAGiC sequence has a certain application value for predicting LVSI status in early cervical cancer.

Objective:To explore the application effect of rotating skin flap in the repair of skin and soft tissue defects in the perineum.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 9 patients with perineal soft tissue defects treated in the Department of the First Affiliated Hospital, Wenzhou Medical University from January 2022 to March 2024. Among them, 8 cases were soft tissue defects after extensive resection of Paget′s disease in the perineum, and 1 case was soft tissue defects after treatment of severe urethral stricture. The defect area ranged from 4 cm×1.5 cm to 30 cm×35 cm, and all wounds were repaired with rotating skin flaps, For patients with excessive area, rotating skin flaps were used to cover important areas, combined with autologous skin and artificial skin to cover the remaining wounds. Patients with urethral stricture were treated with free oral mucosal reconstruction of the urethra combined with rotational skin flap coverage. The donor site was directly sutured or autologous skin was transplanted.Results:After surgery, the recipient skin flaps of 9 patients survived and the donor area healed. After a follow-up of 9-15 months, the skin flap survived well, with skin color approaching normal, and the donor site wound healed well. Eight patients with Paget′s disease did not show any recurrence, among which one patient with extensive wound expansion had good recovery of the perineal skin flap coverage area, and small-scale chronic ulcers appeared in the skin graft area. The skin flap of the patient with urethral stricture had recovered well, and the shape of the penis was good, without any urethral stricture, urinary fistula, sinus tract, etc.Conclusions:The rotational skin flap has a clear therapeutic effect on perineal soft tissue defects and is suitable for repairing perineal skin and soft tissue defects.

Objective To analyze the perioperative outcomes of cardiac valve surgery in patients with asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection. Methods The perioperative clinical data of patients receiving heart valve replacement in the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China from November 2022 to February 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether the patients were infected with SARS-CoV-2, they were divided into a non-infected group and an asymptomatic group. The perioperative data of the patients were compared between the two groups, and the effect of asymptomatic infection on the result of heart valve replacement surgery was analyzed. Results A total of 66 patients were enrolled including 36 males and 30 females with a mean age of 58.0±11.1 years. There were 51 patients in the non-infected group and 15 patients in the asymtomatic group. There were 2 patients of mitral valve replacement, 20 patients of aortic valve replacement, 1 patient of double valve replacement, 3 patients of aortic valve replacement with tricuspid valvoplasty, 22 patients of mitral valve replacement and tricuspid valvoplasty, 18 patients of double valve replacement and tricuspid valvoplasty. Asymptomatic infected patients received more emergency surgery than uninfected patients (26.7% vs. 0.0%, P<0.01). There was no statistical difference in the duration of extracorporeal circulation, aortic occlusion, mechanical ventilation time after the surgery, ICU stay, postoperative drainage volume, or postoperative complications between the two groups. Conclusion Perioperative results of cardiac valve surgery in patients with asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection and non-infection are almost the same.

Objective:To explore the application and effect of scenario simulation teaching in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) course for emergency training of "5+3" professional master.Methods:A randomized controlled trial was conducted among 48 "5+3" professional masters who would rotate in the emergency department, to compare the test results of the total and three scenes between scenario simulation teaching group ( n=24) and traditional teaching group ( n=24). The STEMI teaching was carried out through simulating the emergency room, standardized patients and first-aid simulators in the simulation teaching group, and the traditional teaching group was taught by conventional classroom teaching. After the class, "Theoretical Examination" and "Questionnaire Survey" were used to evaluate the teaching effect. The former was further divided into "first diagnosis and differential diagnosis of chest pain", "fast identification and processing of STEMI" and "rescue of cardiac arrest" for inter-group and intra-group evaluation. SPSS 20.0 was used to conduct t-test. Results:In the theoretical examination, the scenario simulation teaching group was superior to the traditional teaching group in the test of emergency processing for STEMI course [(82.38±2.41) vs . (68.00±1.95), t=4.64, P<0.001]. In the sub-analysis of scenario simulation teaching group, students in the role-play group had significantly higher scores than others in the non-role-play group [(90.50±3.04) vs . (79.67±2.79), t=2.09, P=0.049]. Scenario simulation teaching group was also superior to traditional teaching group in the "Questionnaire Survey". Conclusion:In the training and teaching of STEMI emergency processing, scenario simulation teaching group proves to be superior to traditional teaching, which deserves further promotion.

This article reported a case of pyruvate dehydrogenase E1-α deficiency suggested by abnormal brain development during prenatal ultrasound imaging. Prenatal ultrasound revealed a mild enlargement of bilateral cerebral ventricles and the possibility of intracranial hemorrhage in the fetus at 25 +1 weeks of gestation. MRI showed the fetus with absent corpus callosum, enlarged bilateral cerebral ventricles and paraventricular cysts. After genetic counseling and careful consideration, the couple opted for pregnancy termination. To clarify the cause of the disease, whole-exome sequencing was performed on the fetal skin to detect possible variants, and which revealed a frameshift mutation c.924_930dup(p.R311Gfs*5) in exon 10 of the PDHA1 gene. Sanger sequencing confirmed the mutation was a de novo pathogenic variant, indicating that the fetus was affected by pyruvate dehydrogenase E1-α deficiency.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of modified Qiwei Baizhu Powder combined with conventional therapy in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with abnormal lipid metabolism.Methods:A total of 96 patients with T2DM and abnormal lipid metabolism from March 2018 to March 2021 in Anhui Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital who met the inclusion criteria were divided into 2 groups according to the random number table method, with 48 in each group. The control group was treated with conventional western medicine, while the observation group was treated with modified Qiwei Baizhu Powder and treatment of the control group. Both groups were treated for 3 months. TCM syndrome scores were performed before and after treatment. Fasting blood glucose (FPG) and 2 hPG were detected by glucose oxidase method, HbA1c was detected by HPLC, TC, TG, HDL-C and LDL-C were detected by cholesterol peroxidase method, glycerophosphate oxidase method, direct inhibition method and direct surfactant clearance method. Adverse events during treatment were recorded and clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results:The total effective rate was 93.8% (45/48) in the observation group and 79.2% (38/48) in the control group, with a statistically significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=4.36, P=0.037). After treatment, the scores of dry mouth, fatigue, anorexia, dizziness, tongue, pulse and total scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t values were 3.58, 3.17, 3.24, 3.59, 3.58, 2.76 and 8.44, respectively, all Ps<0.05); the levels of FPG, 2 hPG and HbA1c in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t values were 3.37, 2.05 and 3.73 respectively, all Ps<0.05). After treatment, the levels of TC [(4.30±0.85) mmol/L vs. (4.78±0.94) mmol/L, t=2.62], TG [(3.00±0.37) mmol/L vs. (3.19±0.54) mmol/L, t=2.01], LDL-C [(2.60±0.71) mmol/L vs. (2.95±0.44) mmol/L, t=2.90] were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05). After treatment, the HDL-C [(2.07±0.63) mmol/L vs. (1.82±0.55) mmol/L, t=2.01] level was significantly higher than that of the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Modified Qiwei Baizhu Powder combined with conventional therapy can improve blood glucose and blood lipid levels in T2DM patients with abnormal lipid metabolism, relieve clinical symptoms and improve curative effect.

Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Methods: The clinicopathological data of patients of renal cell carcinoma arising in end-stage renal disease were collected from the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University (ten cases) and 971 Hospital of PLA Navy (five cases) from January 2009 to August 2018. Results: Among 15 patients, 14 were male and 1 was female, and the age ranged from 38 to 78 years (mean 51 years, median 49 years). All patients had history of chronic renal failure (7-192 months), including 9 patients treated with hemodialysis for 6 to 132 months. In 12 cases the tumor border was distinct and the tumor size ranged from 1.8 to 11.0 cm. Two cases were multifocal and one case showed extensive renal hemorrhage with an inconspicuous tumor mass. Microscopically, 9 cases were clear cell reanl cell carcinoma including one with sarcomatoid differentiation, 4 were acquired cystic kidney disease-associated(ACKD-RCC) and two were papillary renal cell carcinoma. All patients had a follow-up of 3 to 120 months. Four patients died during a follow-up of 6 to 60 months (mean 30 months) as a result of extensive distant metastases (two cases) and renal failure (two cases), while other eleven patients were alive without tumor recurrence or metastasis (median 40.8 months of follow-up ranging from 3 to 120 months). Conclusions ESRD-RCC is more often seen in younger male patients. The time intervals from the onset of chronic renal failure to the diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma differ and tumors are frequently incidental findings. The histological types can be sporadic renal cell carcinoma or unique ACKD-RCC. Tumors are often hemorrhagic and necrotic. Routine physical examination and early detection could benefit ESRD-RCC patients. ESRD-RCC may have a favorable prognosis despite of a large tumor size or the presence of sarcomatoid differentiation.
