Objective:
To prospectively evaluate the feasibility, accuracy, and safety of multiparameter MRI-guided percutaneous biopsy using a 1T open MRI scanner for evaluating suspicious centrally located lung lesions with associated post-obstructive atelectasis.
Materials and Methods:
In this single-center study, MRI-guided percutaneous coaxial cutting biopsy was performed for 107 suspicious central lung lesions with associated post-obstructive atelectasis in 107 patients between July 2015 and December 2020. A fast T2-weighted imaging (T2WI)-turbo spin echo (TSE) sequence and an enhanced fast T1-weighted imaging (T1WI)-TSE sequence were used to identify, localize, and biopsy lung lesions, and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) was used as a supplementary sequence for identifying the lesion location. The final diagnosis was confirmed by surgical histopathology or clinical follow-up for a minimum of 24 months. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for diagnosing lung malignancies were calculated, and the complications were recorded for each case.
Results:
Using multiparameter MRI, central lung lesions could be clearly distinguished from post-obstructive atelectasis in 96 patients (89.7%). The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of MRI-guided percutaneous biopsy for diagnosing lung malignancy was 97.0% (98/101), 100% (6/6), and 97.2% (104/107), respectively. Self-limited hemoptysis occurred in three patients. Pneumothorax occurred in five patients, of which none required pleural drainage. No serious procedure-related complications were observed.
Conclusion
As a technology that does not involve ionizing radiation, multiparameter MRI-guided percutaneous coaxial cutting biopsy is a safe and accurate diagnostic technique for evaluating centrally located lung lesions associated with post-obstructive atelectasis.

Objective:To explore the relationship between 24-hour movement behavior and anxiety in middle school students.Methods:Totally 2 690 students from 8 middle schools in Hubei Province were selected as research subjects.The Health Behavior in School-aged Children,Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Self-Rating Anxiety Scale were used to assess 24-hour movement behavior[i.e.,moderate to vigorous physical activity(MVPA),screen time(ST),and sleep duration(SD)]and anxiety symptoms.The binary logistic regression analysis was per-formed to examine the relationship between 24-hour movement behavior and anxiety for middle school students.Results:In middle school students,the compliance rate of 24-hour movement behavior was 4.2%,that of MVPA being 15.8%,that of ST being 27.1%,that of SD being 64.2%,and the detection rate of anxiety was 21.7%.The binary logistic regression analysis showed that,compared with the situation when three factors met with the 24-hour movement guidelines,the anxiety risk of middle school students increased when single factor(i.e.,MVPA,ST and SD)and some two factors(i.e.,MVPA+ST and MVPA+SD)met 24-hour guidelines,with odds ratios being respectively 2.62,2.22,2.80,2.62,2.52.Conclusion:The detection rate of anxiety in middle school students was probably negatively correlated with the compliance rate of 24-hour movement behavior.

Objective:To investigate immunotherapy effects and mechanism of BCG and recombinant BCG(rBCG)with c-di-AMP as adjuvant on melanoma in mice model.Methods:Melanoma mice model was established by B16F10 cell subcutaneous injec-tion in groin,and treated with 1×106 CFU of BCG and rBCG by adjacent injection of subcutaneous tumor for 3 times,respectively.Survival of melanotic mice,tumor growth and metastasis were observed.Tumor tissues of mice were isolated to prepare cell suspen-sion,and proportion of immune cells were detected by flow cytometry.Transcriptional levels of immune-related genes in tumor tissues were detected by qRT-PCR.Results:Both BCG and rBCG immunotherapy could significantly inhibit growth in melanoma mice and prolong survival time of mice.rBCG showed better inhibition on metastasis than BCG.Both strains significantly reduced proportion of M2-type macrophages and myeloid-derived suppressor cell associated with tumor growth and metastasis.Both two strains promoted infiltration of lymphocytes in tumor tissues,and rBCG significantly increased proportion of B cells in tumor.BCG immunotherapy upregulated transcription levels of metastasis-related cytokines,while rBCG therapy had no effects on transcriptions of these genes.Conclusion:Both BCG and rBCG have immunotherapeutic effects on melanotic mice,and rBCG with c-di-AMP as adjuvant shows better inhibition on tumor metastasis than BCG,which mechanism was related to regulation of immune response in tumor tissues.

Objective To explore the value of integrating CT image features and quantitative dual-energy computed tomography(DECT)parameters in predicting cervical lymph nodes metastasis from laryngeal and hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(LHSCC).Methods The clinical and imaging data of 99 patients with LHSCC confirmed by pathology were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were divided into metastatic group(41 cases)and non-metastatic group(58 cases).The CT image features,including location,size and depth,were analyzed,respectively.The quantitative DECT parameters in the arterial and venous phases including iodine concentration(IC)and normalized iodine concentration(NIC)were measured.The rank sum test or independent-samples t-test were used to compare the difference of CT image features and quantitative DECT parameters between the two groups.The multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to build the models based on CT image features(image feature model)and combination of CT image features and quantitative DECT parameters(combined model).The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was performed to analyze and compare the difference of predictive efficiency between the two groups.Results There were significant differences in tumor location between the non-metastatic group and the metastatic group(χ2=21.736,P<0.001).Size(33.20 mm vs 24.95 mm,P<0.001),depth(21.10 mm vs 13.15 mm,P<0.001)and NIC in the arterial phase(0.18 vs 0.14,P<0.001)in the metastatic group were significantly higher than those in the non-metastatic group.The area under the curve(AUC),sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,accuracy of the combined model were 0.851,75.6%,82.8%,58.5%,87.9%and 75.8%for predicting cervical lymph nodes metastasis.The AUC,sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,accuracy of the image feature model were 0.792,95.1%,56.9%,53.7%,81.0%and 69.7%,respectively.The prediction performance of the combined model was better than that of the image feature model(Z=-2.028,P=0.043).Conclusion Integrating CT image features and quantitative DECT parameters has important value for predicting cervical lymph nodes metastasis from LHSCC.
