Objective To observe the value of shear wave viscoelastography(SWV)for differentiating lung peripheral inflammatory masses and malignant tumors.Methods Conventional gray-scale ultrasound and SWV were prospectively performed in 70 patients with lung peripheral inflammatory mass or malignant tumor.The patients were divided into malignant group(n=42)and inflammatory group(n=28)according to pathological results.Clinical and ultrasonic data,including the maximum diameter of lesions,the mean Young's modulus(Emean),mean viscosity(Vmean),and mean dispersion slope(Dmean)were compared between groups.Receiver operating characteristic curves of ultrasonic parameters being significantly different between groups were drawn,and area under the curves(AUCs)were calculated to evaluate the efficacy of each parameter for differentiating lung peripheral inflammatory mass or malignant tumor.Results In malignant group,the maximum diameter and Emean of lesions were both higher,while Vmean and Dmean of lesions were both lower than those in inflammatory group(all P＜0.05).Vmean and Dmean of lesions had moderately/good efficacy for differentiating lung peripheral inflammatory mass or malignant tumor(AUC=0.843,0.866),both better than that of conventional ultrasound and Emean(AUC=0.673,0.685)(all P＜0.05).The combination of Emean,Vmean and Dmean had good efficacy for differentiating lung peripheral inflammatory masses and malignant tumors,with AUC of 0.874.Conclusion The viscous parameters of SWV could effectively differentiating lung peripheral inflammatory masses and malignant tumors.

Objective:To construct a risk model of liver injury related to parenteral nutrition (PNALD) in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods:The clinical data of 176 SAP patients admitted to the 971 Hospital of Navy from January 2019 to August 2021 were retrospectively collected. According to whether PNALD occurred or not, the patients were divided into liver injury group ( n=33) and non-liver injury group ( n=143). Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of PNALD in SAP patients. Then decision tree model and multivariate logistic regression model were established based on the screened risk factors. Hosmer and Lemeshow Test calibration curves were used to calibrate the two models, and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was drawn and area under the curve (AUC) was calculated to compare the prediction efficiency of the two models. Results:Drinking history (history of alcohol intake), serum albumin / globulin ratio ≤1.45, prothrombin time (PT)≥18.52 s, PT activity ≤48.96, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) ≥45.91 s were all risk factors for PNALD. The ROC curve of the multivariate logistic regression model and the decision tree model was drawn, and calculated AUC of the two models was 0.851 and 0.906, respectively; the sensitivity was 79.6% and 80.8%, respectively; the specificity was 80.5% and 79.6%, respectively; and the Youden index was 0.601 and 0.604, respectively, with good consistency.Conclusions:Low serum albumin/globulin ratio and PT activity, high PT and APTT are all risk factors for PNALD. The PNALD prediction model based on the above risk factors has high specificity and sensitivity.

OBJECTIVE To s tudy the impr ovement effects of tilianin on the atherosclerosis （AS）model mice and its potential mechanism. METHODS Eight C 57BL/6J mice were taken as the normal group.
