Objective To explore the value of MRI quantitative parameters and free/total prostate-specific antigen ratio(f/tPSA)for diagnosing prostate imaging reporting and data system(PI-RADS)3-point clinically significant prostate cancer(csPCa).Methods Totally 57 patients with PI-RADS 3-point prostate lesions were retrospectively enrolled,including 18 prostate cancer(PCa)(PCa group)and 39 benign hyperplasia with chronic prostatitis(non-PCa group).The former included 12 cases of csPCa and 6 cases of clinically insignificant PCa(ciPCa).Taken non-PCa and ciPCa into non-csPCa group(n=45),laboratory and MRI parameters(apparent diffusion coefficient[ADC],T1,T2,proton density[PD]values)were compared between PCa and non-PCa groups,also between csPCa and non-csPCa groups.Based on laboratory and MRI parameters being statistically different between groups according to univariate analysis,combined models were established using logistic regression.The efficacy of laboratory,MRI parameters and combined models for differentiating PCa and non-PCa as well as csPCa and non-csPCa were evaluated.Results ADC,T1,T2,PD values in PCa group were all lower those in non-PCa group(all P＜0.05),and f/tPSA,ADC,T1,T2 and PD values in csPCa group were all lower than those in non-csPCa group(all P＜0.05).AUC of ADC,T1,T2 and PD values for differentiating PCa from non-PCa was 0.662,0.755,0.793 and 0.729 respectively,while of ADC-T1-T2-PD combined model was 0.839,higher than that of ADC alone(P＜0.05)but not significantly different with T1,T2 and PD values alone(all P＞0.05).AUC of f/tPSA,ADC,T1,T2 and PD values for differentiating csPCa from non-csPCa was 0.692,0.759,0.741,0.805 and 0.737,respectively,while of ADC-T1-T2-PD combined model was 0.889,higher than that of f/tPSA,ADC and T1 values alone(all P＜0.05)but not significantly different with that of T2 and PD value alone(both P＞0.05).AUC of f/tPSA-ADC-T1-T2-PD combined model was 0.898,higher than that of f/tPSA,ADC,T1 and PD values alone(all P＜0.05)but not significantly different with T2 value and ADC-T1-T2-PD combined model(both P＞0.05).Conclusion MRI quantitative parameters combined with f/tPSA could effectively diagnose PI-RADS 3-point csPCa.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) (aspirin + clopidogrel) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for more than 12 months.Methods:1 900 patients who received CABG treatment in Tianjin Chest Hospital from January 2019 to October 2020 were continuously included, and 1 528 patients were finally identified according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. According to whether the patients continued to take DAPT treatment 12 months after discharge, they were divided into the extended DAPT group and the standard DAPT group. Cox multivariate regression and propensity score matching (PSM) analysis were performed on major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular adverse events (MACCE) and clinically related bleeding events in the two groups during 12-24 months after discharge to evaluate the efficacy and safety of extended DAPT treatment for more than 12 months. Results:Of the 1 528 patients, 624 (40.8%) continued to take DAPT 12 months after discharge. Compared with patients receiving standard DAPT, patients receiving extended DAPT had a lower incidence of MACCE within 12 to 24 months ( HR=0.597, 95% CI: 0.399-0.892, P=0.012); ( HR=0.519, 95% CI: 0.338-0.798, P=0.003), and there was no significant increase in clinically relevant bleeding risk ( HR=1.209, 95% CI: 0.522-2.798, P=0.658), ( HR=1.112, 95% CI: 0.452-2.737, P=0.817). At the same time, prolonged DAPT treatment also brought a good net benefit. Conclusion:Prolonged DAPT treatment after CABG for more than 12 months significantly reduced the risk of ischemia at 12-24 months after surgery, and did not significantly increase the risk of bleeding at 12-24 months after surgery. It may be beneficial for patients treated with CABG to continue DAPT (aspirin+ clopidogrel) on the basis of intensive DAPT therapy for 1 year.

Objective:To investigate the protective effect of liriodendrin on acute myocardial infarction in rats and to explore the related mechanisms.Methods:From January to December 2019, 30 SPF male Wistar rats with a body weight of(200±10)g were randomly divided into a sham operation group, a control group, and a liriodendringroupwith 10 rats in each group using the numerical sampling method.The liriodendron group was intragastrically administered with a liriodendrinsolution(10 ml/kg)once a day from 5 days before myocardial infarction model construction to 3 days after surgery.The control group and the sham surgery group were intragastrically administered with 10 ml/kg normal saline.After surgery, high-sensitivity troponin T levels were measured in the three groups.Cardiac function of the rats was assessed using echocardiography on the 3rd day post-surgery.Then, the rats were sacrificed, followed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining and TdT-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling(TUNEL)staining of cardiac tissues and measurement of interleukin(IL)-1β and tumor necrosis factor(TNF-α)levels.Western blot and real-time polymerase chain reaction(PCR)were used to detect the expression of apoptosis-related proteins and transcriptional activity.Results:High-sensitivity troponin T levels in the liriodendrin group[(1.74±0.63)μg/L]were lower than in the myocardial infarction group[(3.54±1.60)μg/L]at 2 hours after surgery( t=2.69, P<0.05). Echocardiography showed that, compared with the myocardial infarction group, the ejection fraction was higher in the liriodendrin group, and the left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, left ventricular end-systolic diameter, left ventricular end-diastolic volume and left ventricular end-systolic volume were lower in the liriodendrin group( P<0.05). Histological staining showed that the myocardial tissue of the control group was severely damaged, with infiltration of a large number of in flammatory cells.The number of TUNEL-positive cells in the liriodendrin group(56.66±2.414)was statistically significantly reduced, compared with in the myocardial infarction group(76.55±1.843)( t=6.55, P<0.05). The levels of IL-1β and TNF-α in the myocardial infarction group were higher than those in the liriodendrin group( P<0.05). The expression of apoptosis-related proteins in the liriodendrin group was lower( P<0.05)and the transcriptional activity of mRNA was also lower( P<0.05)than in the myocardial infarction group. Conclusions:Liriodendrin may protect cardiomyocytes after myocardial infarction in rats by inhibiting local inflammation and cell apoptosis.

Objective:To study the efficacy of stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) combined with gemcitabine plus cisplatin (GP)-based chemotherapy on local recurrent non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after radiotherapy. Methods:Thirty-eight patients with local recurrent NSCLC were treated with SRT(3.00-4.85 Gy per fraction, five times every week, totally 8-12 fractions, total course of 2-3 weeks). Before SRT the patients were given two cycles of GP-based chemotherapy (gemcitabine 1 000 mg/m~2 d 1 and d 8;cisplatin 30 mg/m~2 d 1-3) and at the end of SRT they were given 4 cycles of GP-based chemotherapy. Results:Of the 38 patients,7 patients had complete response, and 23 patients achieved partial response. The overall immediate response rate was 78.95% (30/38). The 6-month and 12-month total survival rates were 71.05% and 10.53%,respectively. The median survival time was 7.8 months. Conclusion:SRT combined with GP-based chemotherapy had better short-term efficacy and the patients were tolerable. No severe short-term radiation-induced injury was observed. The long-term radiation-induced injury and long-term efficacy need further investigation.

Objective In order to provide the reasons for local injecting Xiaozhiling to treat malignant tumors. Methods 10 mice were subcutaneosly injected with S 180 Tumor cell to create tumor models and then Xiaozhiling 10ml/kg were intratumorly injected for 3 times.Finally,observation and comparison were made for the pathologic changes under optic and electronic microscopies. Results The results showed that Xiaozhiling had strong antitumor effect on S 180 tumor(adquate rate was 37.3%).Pathalogical exemination revealed that the tumor tissue necrosed obviously,some wesslincataneous cells breaked up, red blood cells extravasation,micro blood clots formed.No changes occurred in the control group. Conclusions Xiaozhiling could be a new drug for clinical treatment of malignant tumor.
