Objective To observe the value of self-supervised deep learning artificial intelligence(AI)noise reduction technology based on the nearest adjacent layer applicated in ultra-low dose CT(ULDCT)for urinary calculi.Methods Eighty-eight urinary calculi patients were prospectively enrolled.Low dose CT(LDCT)and ULDCT scanning were performed,and the effective dose(ED)of each scanning protocol were calculated.The patients were then randomly divided into training set(n=75)and test set(n=13),and a self-supervised deep learning AI noise reduction system based on the nearest adjacent layer constructed with ULDCT images in training set was used for reducing noise of ULDCT images in test set.In test set,the quality of ULDCT images before and after AI noise reduction were compared with LDCT images,i.e.Blind/Referenceless Image Spatial Quality Evaluator(BRISQUE)scores,image noise(SDROI)and signal-to-noise ratio(SNR).Results The tube current,the volume CT dose index and the dose length product of abdominal ULDCT scanning protocol were all lower compared with those of LDCT scanning protocol(all P＜0.05),with a decrease of ED for approximately 82.66％.For 13 patients with urinary calculi in test set,BRISQUE score showed that the quality level of ULDCT images before AI noise reduction reached 54.42％level but raised to 95.76％level of LDCT images after AI noise reduction.Both ULDCT images after AI noise reduction and LDCT images had lower SDROI and higher SNR than ULDCT images before AI noise reduction(all adjusted P＜0.05),whereas no significant difference was found between the former two(both adjusted P＞0.05).Conclusion Self-supervised learning AI noise reduction technology based on the nearest adjacent layer could effectively reduce noise and improve image quality of urinary calculi ULDCT images,being conducive for clinical application of ULDCT.

Objective:To explore the disease-related impairment of functional and structural connectivity network and their relationship with psychometric hepatic encephalopathy score (PHES) in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus-related cirrhosis (HBV-RC) by combining resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI).Methods:Data of 30 HBV-RC patients [including 13 HBV-RC patients with minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) and 17 HBV-RC patients without MHE (NMHE)] from April 2011 to October 2011 in Guangdong No.2 People′s Hospital were analyzed prospectively, and 38 healthy individuals matched for age, sex, and education with HBV-RC patients (HC group) were included during the same period. Rs-fMR and DTI data as well as PHES data of all participants were collected. Gretna and PANDA software package were used to preprocess the imaging data and construct the functional and structural network respectively. The network-based statistic (NBS) approach was used to compare the differences of the functional and structural connections among three groups. Spearman′s correlation analysis was used to identify the relationship between functional or structural connectivity and PHES. The structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to explore the relationships among functional connectivity, structural connectivity, and PHES.Results:Compared to HC group, both functional and structural connectivity in the whole brain progressively destroyed from NMHE to MHE, mainly involving cognitive control network, default mode network, and limbic network (NBS corrected, all P<0.01). There were significantly negative relationships between functional or structural connectivity and PHES in HBV-RC patients (false discovery rate corrected, all P<0.05). The SEM results showed the influence of structural connectivity on neurocognitive impairment was mediated by functional connectivity ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Both functional and structural networks progressively destroy in HBV-RC patients as the disease advanced and these alterations significantly correlate with PHES. Besides, the influence of structural connectivity on neurocognitive impairment is mediated by functional connectivity.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of three-dimensional electroanatomical mapping system for catheter ablation of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardiain (PSVT) children. Methods: Clinical data from 187 children with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia undergoing radiofrequency catheter ablation in our department between January 2012 and April 2016 were analyzed. Among the patients, 91 cases were treated with traditional two-dimensional X-ray radiofrequency ablation, 96 cases were treated with radiofrequency ablation guided by three-dimensional electroanatomical mapping system. Postoperative electrocardiogram and echocardiography follow-up was performed at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months. The success rate, recurrence rate, complication rate, operation time and amount of X-ray exposure were compared between the two groups. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to analyze the PSVT-free survival rate of the patients between the 2 groups. Results: The mean follow-up time was (739±92) days. The success rate (95.8%(92/96) vs. 94.5%(86/91), P=0.912), recurrence rate (5.4%(5/92) vs. 4.7%(4/86), P=0.807), complication rate (4.2%(4/96) vs. 5.5%(5/91), P=0.379), operation time ((73±31)min vs. (79±36)min, P=0.124) were similar between the two groups. However, X-ray exposure time ((8.1±2.9)min vs. (21.3±8.4)min, P=0.026), amount of X-ray ((23±11)mGy vs. (58±23)mGy, P=0.013) were significantly lower in the three-dimensional electroanatomical mapping system group than in the traditional two-dimensional X-ray radio frequency ablation group. PSVT-free survival rate was similar between the two groups (χ²=0.060, P=0.807) . Conclusion Three-dimensional electroanatomical mapping system is safe and effective for radiofrequency ablation of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia in children, and can significantly reduce the amount of radiation as compared to the traditional two-dimensional X-ray radiofrequency ablation.

Objective To assess the influence of metabolic syndrome(MS)on the success rate of catheter ablation for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF)in the elderly. Methods A retrospective study included a total of 221 aged patients with AF who underwent AF ablation for the first time. The patients were divided into two groups :an MS group(n＝72)and a control group(without MS)(n＝149) . The MS group had a mean age of (67.1 ± 5.2) years ;the control group had a mean age of (68.3 ± 5.7) years. Forty-six patients in the MS group and 105 patients in the control group experienced paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Prognoses in two groups were compared at the end of the follow-up. Results At the end of the follow-up ,the success rates of the procedure in the MS group and the control group were 37.5%(n ＝ 27)and 51.7%(n ＝ 77) ,respectively (χ2＝ 3.917 ,P ＝ 0.049) .Recurrence happened in 19 patients of the MS group and 28 patients of the control group ,and they underwent a repeat ablation. The overall success rates after the last ablation in the two groups were 51.4%(n＝37)and 65.8%(n＝98) ,respectively (χ2＝4.224 ,P＝0.034).In the multivariable model adjusted for risk factors ,MS(HR＝1.42 ,95% CI :1.11-1.64 ,P＝0.033)and left atrial diameter(HR＝ 1.83 ,95% CI :1.27-3.19 , P ＝ 0.017 ) were independent predictors for recurrence. Conclusions MS can affect the success rate of catheter ablation for AF in elderly patients and the effect remains even after the procedures are repeated

Objective To investigate the effect of thyroxine replacement therapy with residual subclinical hypothyroidism on the success rate of catheter ablation in elderly patients with atrial fibrillation(AF).Methods Among the consecutive patients with AF who underwent a first AF ablation in our center between 2009 and 2012,we identified 56 patients(41 paroxysmal AF,15 persistent AF)with subclinical clinical hypothyroidism after receiving thyroid hormone replacement therapy as study group.The control group consisted of 56 patients with euthyroidism and no history of thyroid dysfunction.All patients underwent catheter ablation.Results At the end of follow up,37.5%(21/56)patients were AF free after the first procedure in the study group,in comparison to 64.3%(36/56)in control group(χ2=8.655,P=0.003).Last procedure was performed in 27 patients of study group and in 15 patients of control group.After the last performed ablation,62.5%(35/56)study group patients and 80.4%(45/56)controls group patients had no recurrence(χ2=4.653,P=0.031).The major complications rate did not differ between two groups(P=0.642).Conclusions Thyroid hormone replacement therapy with residual subclinical hypothyroidism reduces catheter ablation success rate in elderly patients with atrial fibrillation.

OBJECTIVETo explore the possible mechanism and protective effect of BMSCs (bone mesenchymal stem cells) carrying superoxide dismutase (SOD) gene on mice with paraquat-induced acute lung injury.

METHODSTo establish the cell line of BMSCs bringing SOD gene, lentiviral vector bringing SOD gene was built and co-cultured with BMSCs. A total of 100 BALB/c mice were randomly divided into five groups, namely Control group, poisoning group (PQ group) , BMSCs therapy group (BMSC group) , BMSCs-Cherry therapy group (BMSC-Cherry group) , BMSCs-SOD therapy group (BMSC-SOD group) . PQ poisoning model was produced by stomach lavaged once with 1 ml of 25 mg/kg PQ solution, and the equal volume of normal saline (NS) was given to Control group mice instead of PQ. The corresponding BMSCs therapy cell lines were delivered to mice through the tail vein of mice 4h after PQ treatment.Five mice of each group were sacrificed 3 d, 7 d, 14 d and 21 days after corresponding BMSCs therapy cell lines administration, and lung tissues of mice were taken to make sections for histological analysis. The serum levels of glutathione (GSH) , malondialdehyde (MDA) , SOD, and the levels of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in lung tissue were determined. The level of SOD was assayed by Westen-blot.

RESULTSCompared with Control group, the early (3 days) levels of SOD protein in lung tissue of PQ group obviously decreased, and the late (21 days) levels of SOD obviously increased, while in therapy groups, that was higher than that in PQ group, and the BMSCs-SOD group showed most obvious (all P<0.05) . Compared with Control group, the levels of plasma GSH and SOD of PQ group and each therapy group wae significantly lower than those in Control group, while in therapy groups, those were higher than those of PQ group, and the BMSCs-SOD group showed most obvious (all P<0.05) .Compared with Control group, the level of plasma MDA, TNF-α and TGF-β in PQ group and therapy groups were significantly higher, while in therapy groups, that was lower than that in PQ group, and the BMSCs-SOD group showed most obvious (all P<0.05) . Lung biopsy showed that, the degree of lung tissue damage in each therapy group obviously reduced.

CONCLUSIONSOD is the key factor of the removal of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells, that can obviously inhibit the oxidative stress damage and the apoptosis induced by PQ, thus significantly increasing alveolar epithelial cell ability to fight outside harmful environment.
