Objective To investigate the expression and prognostic value of serum receptor for advanced glycation end products(RAGE)and CXC-chemokine ligand 16(CXCL16)in patients with sepsis complicated with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).Methods A total of 234 patients with sepsis diagnosed and treated in a hospital from January 2019 to January 2022 were selected as the study subjects,and were divided into 82 patients with sepsis complicated with ARDS(ARDS group)and 152 patients with sepsis without ARDS(non-ARDS group)according to whether the subjects were complicated with ARDS.ARDS group was divided into survival group(n=50)and death group(n=32)according to the survival status within 28 days of admission.Another 60 healthy subjects who underwent physical examination in the same period were se-lected as the control group.Serum RAGE and CXCL16 levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Pearson correlation analysis of serum RAGE and CXCL16 levels with sequential organ failure assess-ment(SOFA)score,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ)score and oxygenation index in patients with sepsis and ARDS.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis of prognostic factors of sep-sis complicated with ARDS.The predictive value of serum RAGE and CXCL16 on the prognosis of sepsis complicated with ARDS patients was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve.Results The serum RAGE and CXCL16 levels in ARDS group were higher than those in non-ARDS group and control group,and the serum RAGE and CXCL16 levels in non-ARDS group were higher than those in control group,the differ-ence was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Compared with the survival group,the mechanical ventilation time,intensive care unit stay time,procalcitonin,SOFA score,APACHE Ⅱ score,serum RAGE,CXCL16 lev-els were higher in the death group,and the oxygenation index was lower,with statistical significance(all P＜0.05).The serum RAGE level in patients with sepsis complicated with ARDS was positively correlated with SOFA score and APACHE Ⅱ score(r=0.603,0.671,P＜0.05).Serum CXCL16 levels were positively corre-lated with SOFA score and APACHE Ⅱ score(r=0.655,0.707,P＜0.05).Serum RAGE and CXCL16 were negatively correlated with oxygenation index(r=-0.712,-0.683,P＜0.05).Multi-factor Logistics regres-sion analysis showed that serum RAGE and CXCL16 were independent risk factors for death within 28 days of admission in patients with sepsis complicated with ARDS.The area under the curve(AUC)of combined de-tection of serum RAGE and CXCL16 for predicting death within 28 days of admission in patients with sepsis complicated with ARDS was 0.882,which was higher than that of single index detection of serum RAGE and CXCL16,and the difference was statistically significant(Z=4.450,4.906,P＜0.05).Conclusion The com-bined detection of serum RAGE and CXCL16 is helpful to evaluate the clinical prognosis of sepsis complicated with ARDS patients.

Objective To investigate the value of 4D-CTA combined with SDF-1a/CXCR4 signaling pathway in evaluating the risk of intracranial aneurysm rupture.Methods Fifty patients with unruptured intracranial posterior communicating aneurysms and 50 patients with ruptured intracranial posterior communicating aneurysms were divided into unruptured group 1 and ruptured group 1.All patients underwent 4D-CTA examination and serumSDF-1alevel was detected.Non-ruptured group 1 was followed up for 12 months(After conservative treatment),on this basis,patients with ruptured posterior communicating aneurysms were included in ruptured group 2,and patients with unruptured posterior communicating aneurysms were included in non-ruptured group 2.Results The AUC values of Wn,AR,L,SR,SDF-1a and their combinations in diagnosing ruptured intracranial posterior communicating aneurysms were all greater than 0.70.The AUC values of Wn,AR,L,SR,SDF-1a and their combinations in predicting ruptured intracranial posterior communicating aneurysms in ruptured group 2 were all greater than 0.70.Conclusion 4D-CTA combined with SDF-1acan effectively distinguish ruptured intracranial posterior communicating aneurysms and predict the risk of rupture.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical effectiveness and safety of stick-point sinew-soothing and bone-setting manipulation for scapulohumeral periarthritis. MethodsUsing prospective randomised controlled trial method， 60 cases of patients with scapulohumeral periarthritis were collected and randomly divided into 30 cases each in control group and trial group. Both groups of patients were orally treated with celecoxib， on the basis of which the control group was treated with traditional bonesetting manipulation once every other day for 14 days， while the trial group was treated with stick-point sinew-soothing and bone-setting manipulation once every 3~5 days for 14 days. Both groups were treated for 2 courses. The main observation indexes were pain visual analogue scale （VAS） score and shoulder pain and dysfunction index （SPADI）， which were evaluated once before treatment and after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment. The secondary effectiveness indicators included the university of California at Los Angeles shoulder rating scale （UCLA）， traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score （including symptom scores as joint pain， pain in a fixed place， activity limitation， local stiffness）， and serum interleukin （IL-6） and tumour necrosis factor α （TNF-α） levels before and after the treatment， in order to evaluate the clinical effectiveness， and to record the adverse reactions that occurred in the process of diagnosis and treatment. ResultsCompared with the groups before treatment， the pain VAS score， SPADI and scores of joint pain， pain with a fixed place， activity limitation and local stiffness were lower， UCLA score was higher， and serum IL-6 and TNF-α levels were lower at 4 weeks of treatment in the two groups （P＜0.05）. When comparing the two groups between the groups at 2 and 4 weeks of treatment， the pain VAS score， SPADI and TCM scores of each symptom in the study group were lower than those in the control group， the UCLA score was higher than those in the control group （P＜0.01）， and the serum IL-6 and TNF-α levels were lower than those in the control group at 4 weeks of treatment （P＜0.01）. The clinical effectiveness rate of the study group was 66.67%， which was significantly higher than that of the control group， which was 40.00% （P = 0.038）. No adverse reactions were seen in both groups during the study. ConclusionCompared with the traditional massage manipulation， the treatment of scapulohumeral periarthritis with stick-point sinew-soothing and bone-setting manipulation has more advantages in relieving pain symptoms， reducing inflammatory reaction， and promoting the recovery of shoulder joint function.

A patient with osteomyelitis who developed a rash after previous treatment with vancomycin was admitted to the hospital due to a recurrence of osteomyelitis.After admission,the orthopedic doctor intended to perform a"calcium sulfate vancomycin implantation surgery"on him.Clinical pharmacist identified the patient's previous rash reaction as red man syndrome(RMS)rather than genuine drug allergy.At the same time,in response to the clinical doubt of whether patients with previous RMS can undergo"calcium sulfate vancomycin implantation surgery",clinical pharmacists reviewed and analyzed the literature,and suggested that the surgery can continue under close monitoring.The patient did not experience RMS or allergic reactions after surgery,and the condition improved.In this paper,the clinical pharmacists started with the identification of RMS and rapid allergic reactions,reviewed the literature on the local use of vancomycin and the risk of RMS,and provide suggestions for subsequent treatment,and also provide references for clinical safe drug use and treatment of similar diseases.

Objective:To explore the significance of multiple frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis (MFBIA) in the combined surgical treatment of breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 30 patients with unilateral postoperative BCRL. The patients recieved staged liposuction and lymphaticovenular anastomosis (LVA) from April to October 2021 at the Department of Lymphatic Surgery in Beijing Shijitan Hospital, Capital Medical University. After LVA surgery, patients were followed-up by telephone and other means, and asked to come to the hospital at 1 year and 2 years, respectively. The circumference of each part of the upper limbs, the length of forearm and arm were measured, and the limb volume was calculated. MFBIA were also performed to record limb bioelectrical impedance, extracellular water(ECW), and extracellular water ratios (ECW/TBW). SPSS 21.0 was used for statistical analysis. Clinical data of the patients were analysed by One-way Repeated Measurement Anova to examine the changes in volume of the affected arms before and after surgery and the changes in values collected by MFBIA. Subsequently, differences in the volumes and values of MFBIA of the affected arms before and after surgery, and the ratios of the above were analysed by paired t-test to compare each pair, then followed by Pearson correlation test. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:After liposuction, the volume differences of affected and healthy arms were reduced from 1 147 ml ± 484 ml before surgery to 261 ml ± 304 ml after surgery, which achieved a significant reduction with statistical significance ( P<0.05). However, there were no significant changes in ECW or bioelectrical impedance at various frequencies (1-1 000 K) ( P>0.05). After LVA, the differences in volume of the affected and healthy arms further decreased to 17 ml±264 ml with statistical significance compared to that before surgery ( P<0.05), ECW decreased from 1.115 L ± 0.207 L to 0.937 L ± 0.164 L with statistical significance ( P<0.05), ECW/TBW decreased from 0.412 ± 0.008 to 0.405 ± 0.007 with statistical significance ( P<0.05), and the bioelectrical impedance at various frequencies was significantly increased with statistical significance ( P<0.05). After LVA, the difference in arm volume was positively correlated with the difference in ECW (correlation coefficient 0.602, P<0.05), positively correlated with the difference in Rate of ECW (correlation coefficient 0.560, P<0.05), and negatively correlated with the ratios of impedance at various frequencies (correlation coefficients 0.529-0.545, P<0.05). Conclusion:In the staged surgical treatment of BCRL, with the application of MFBIA, it is found that lymphatic liposuction removes the pathological adipose tissue of an arm, hence significantly reduces the volume of the affected arm. However, lymphatic stasis remains unrelieved, therefore without a significant reduction in arm oedema. After the second-stage LVA, the improvement of lymphatic return leads to the relief of arm oedema, and the volume of the affected arm approaches to that of the healthy side. MFBIA can be used for assessment of arm oedema.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics and diagnostic methods for the patients with primary lymphedema and interstitial lung disease, as well as the efficacy of thoracic duct or right lymphatic duct plasty.Methods:A retrospective study was performed on 13 patients who were treated for primary lymphedema in the Department of Lymphatic Surgery, Beijing Shijitan Hospital, Capital Medical University, from January 2018 to December 2022. All patients were confirmed with interstitial lung disease by high-resolution CT (HRCT) and then underwent thoracic duct or right lymphatic duct plasty surgery. The 13 patients in this study were 7 males and 6 females aged 7.3 (0.7-30.0) years old. Primary lymphedema was the first manifestation in all patients, with an average morbidity age at 1.0 (0-11.0) years old. The average time from the onset of lymphedema to the confirmed interstitial lung disease was 6.3 (0.3-19.0) years. All patients underwent thoracic duct or right lymphatic duct plasty for improvement of the lymphatic flow. In addition, 9 cases (69.2%) received a direct lymphangiography (DLG). In which, 4 cases (44.4%) received further treatment of ligation of the reflux branches, and 1 (11.1%) had the treatment plans changed, because a chylous reflux into the lung through a bronchomediastinal trunk was found from DLG, therefore a ligation of the abnormal reflux branches was performed and a life-long strict low-fat diet was required. Postoperative follow-ups for evaluation of the improvements of lymphedema and pulmonary lymphatic flow were carried out by visit of outpatient clinic or via telephone interviews.Results:All patients recovered well after surgery with an average follow-up time of 47.5 (19.0-68.0) months. Lymphedema was stable in 2 cases (15.4%) and relieved in 11 cases (84.6%). Ten cases (76.9%) had completed the postoperative HRCT reviews and 9 (90.0%) were found with significant improvement in the interstitial lung disease.Conclusion:The interstitial lung disease found during the examination of patients with primary lymphedema can be explained with a lymphatic flow disorder. DLG can identify the cause and make to guide the treatment. Thoracic duct or right lymphatic duct plasty can effectively improve both of the symptom of lymphedema and interstitial lung disease.

Objective:To investigate the cerebral blood flow autoregulation and cerebrovascular reactivity in patients with cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) and depression.Methods:Eighty patients who were treated in Dalian Municipal Central Hospital Affiliated with Dalian University of Technology from May 2020 to may 2021 were selected and divided into observation group and control group according to the existence of depression. Transcranial Doppler sonography combined with standing and lying position test, breath holding test and breath exchange test were used to observe the "w" wave slope, the "w" wave slope, the "w" wave velocity and the "w" wave velocity cerebral blood flow velocity difference, breath holding index, pulsation index (PI) change rate before and after breath holding, resistance index (RI) change rate before and after breath holding, mean velocity (Vm), PI, RI change rate before and after breath exchange. The correlation between depression score and blood flow index was analyzed.Results:There were 38 and 29 patients occurred "w" wave in the control group and observation group respectively, and the rate were 95.0% (38/40) and 72.5% (29/40) respectively ( χ2 = 7.44, P = 0.006). The slope of "w" descending branch of Vm and the slope of "w" ascending branch of Vm in the observation group were smaller than those of the control group respectively: (1.26 ± 0.23) cm/s vs. (2.45 ± 1.00) cm/s, (1.38 ± 0.71) cm/s vs. (2.56 ± 0.77) cm/s, the difference of which had statistical meanings ( P<0.05). The difference of cerebral blood flow velocity of Vm after different positions in the observation group was higher than that in the control group significantly: (7.20 ± 3.07) cm/s vs. (2.93 ± 1.46) cm/s ( P<0.05). The breath holding index PI change rate, RI change rate before and after breath holding test in the observation group were lower than those in the control group statistically: (0.88 ± 0.33)% vs. (1.49 ± 0.27)%, (14.42 ± 9.31)% vs. (21.51 ± 8.79)%, (11.07 ± 1.70)% vs. (15.31 ± 6.73)% ( P<0.05). The change rates of Vm, PI and RI in the observation group before and after ventilation were lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05). There was a negative correlation between depression score and "w" wave slope (Vm), breath holding index, Vm change rate before and after ventilation, and a positive correlation between depression score and cerebral blood flow velocity difference (Vm) in supine and upright position with statistical meanings ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Depression could lead to the decline of cerebral blood flow autoregulation and cerebrovascular reactivity in patients with SVD. And with the aggravation of depression, the decline of cerebral blood flow autoregulation and cerebrovascular reactivity in patients with SVD is more serious.

Peptides are increasingly important resources for biological and therapeutic development, however, their intrinsic susceptibility to proteolytic degradation represents a big hurdle. As a natural agonist for GLP-1R, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is of significant clinical interest for the treatment of type-2 diabetes mellitus, but its in vivo instability and short half-life have largely prevented its therapeutic application. Here, we describe the rational design of a series of α/sulfono-γ-AA peptide hybrid analogues of GLP-1 as the GLP-1R agonists. Certain GLP-1 hybrid analogues exhibited enhanced stability (t _1/2 > 14 days) compared to t _1/2 (<1 day) of GLP-1 in the blood plasma and in vivo. These newly developed peptide hybrids may be viable alternative of semaglutide for type-2 diabetes treatment. Additionally, our findings suggest that sulfono-γ-AA residues could be adopted to substitute canonical amino acids residues to improve the pharmacological activity of peptide-based drugs.

Objective:To investigate the epidemiological characteristics, diagnosis, treat-ment and prognosis of gallbladder cancer in China from 2010 to 2017.Methods:The single disease retrospective registration cohort study was conducted. Based on the concept of the real world study, the clinicopathological data, from multicenter retrospective clinical data database of gallbladder cancer of Chinese Research Group of Gallbladder Cancer (CRGGC), of 6 159 patients with gallbladder cancer who were admitted to 42 hospitals from January 2010 to December 2017 were collected. Observation indicators: (1) case resources; (2) age and sex distribution; (3) diagnosis; (4) surgical treatment and prognosis; (5) multimodality therapy and prognosis. The follow-up data of the 42 hospitals were collected and analyzed by the CRGGC. The main outcome indicator was the overall survival time from date of operation for surgical patients or date of diagnosis for non-surgical patients to the end of outcome event or the last follow-up. Measurement data with normal distribu-tion were represented as Mean±SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3) or M(range), and com-parison between groups was conducted using the U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Univariate analysis was performed using the Logistic forced regression model, and variables with P<0.1 in the univariate analysis were included for multivariate analysis. Multivariate analysis was performed using the Logistic stepwise regression model. The life table method was used to calculate survival rates and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curves. Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Case resources: of the 42 hospitals, there were 35 class A of tertiary hospitals and 7 class B of tertiary hospitals, 16 hospitals with high admission of gallbladder cancer and 26 hospitals with low admission of gallbladder cancer, respectively. Geographical distribution of the 42 hospitals: there were 9 hospitals in central China, 5 hospitals in northeast China, 22 hospitals in eastern China and 6 hospitals in western China. Geographical distribution of the 6 159 patients: there were 2 154 cases(34.973%) from central China, 705 cases(11.447%) from northeast China, 1 969 cases(31.969%) from eastern China and 1 331 cases(21.611%) from western China. The total average number of cases undergoing diagnosis and treatment in hospitals of the 6 159 patients was 18.3±4.5 per year, in which the average number of cases undergoing diagnosis and treatment in hospitals of 4 974 patients(80.760%) from hospitals with high admission of gallbladder cancer was 38.8±8.9 per year and the average number of cases undergoing diagnosis and treatment in hospitals of 1 185 patients(19.240%) from hospitals with low admission of gallbladder cancer was 5.7±1.9 per year. (2) Age and sex distribution: the age of 6 159 patients diagnosed as gallbladder cancer was 64(56,71) years, in which the age of 2 247 male patients(36.483%) diagnosed as gallbladder cancer was 64(58,71)years and the age of 3 912 female patients(63.517%) diagnosed as gallbladder cancer was 63(55,71)years. The sex ratio of female to male was 1.74:1. Of 6 159 patients, 3 886 cases(63.095%) were diagnosed as gallbladder cancer at 56 to 75 years old. There was a significant difference on age at diagnosis between male and female patients ( Z=-3.99, P<0.001). (3) Diagnosis: of 6 159 patients, 2 503 cases(40.640%) were initially diagnosed as gallbladder cancer and 3 656 cases(59.360%) were initially diagnosed as non-gallbladder cancer. There were 2 110 patients(34.259%) not undergoing surgical treatment, of which 200 cases(9.479%) were initially diagnosed as gallbladder cancer and 1 910 cases(90.521%) were initially diagnosed as non-gallbladder cancer. There were 4 049 patients(65.741%) undergoing surgical treatment, of which 2 303 cases(56.878%) were initially diagnosed as gallbladder cancer and 1 746 cases(43.122%) were initial diagnosed as non-gallbladder cancer. Of the 1 746 patients who were initially diagnosed as non-gallbladder cancer, there were 774 cases(19.116%) diagnosed as gallbladder cancer during operation and 972 cases(24.006%) diagnosed as gallbladder cancer after operation. Of 6 159 patients, there were 2 521 cases(40.932%), 2 335 cases(37.912%) and 1 114 cases(18.087%) undergoing ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination before initial diagnosis, respec-tively, and there were 3 259 cases(52.914%), 3 172 cases(51.502%) and 4 016 cases(65.205%) undergoing serum carcinoembryonic antigen, CA19-9 or CA125 examination before initially diagnosis, respectively. One patient may underwent multiple examinations. Results of univariate analysis showed that geographical distribution of hospitals (eastern China or western China), age ≥72 years, gallbladder cancer annual admission of hospitals, whether undergoing ultrasound, CT, MRI, serum carcinoembryonic antigen, CA19-9 or CA125 examination before initially diagnosis were related factors influencing initial diagnosis of gallbladder cancer patients ( odds ratio=1.45, 1.98, 0.69, 0.68, 2.43, 0.41, 1.63, 0.41, 0.39, 0.42, 95% confidence interval as 1.21-1.74, 1.64-2.40, 0.59-0.80, 0.60-0.78, 2.19-2.70, 0.37-0.45, 1.43-1.86, 0.37-0.45, 0.35-0.43, 0.38-0.47, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that geographical distribution of hospitals (eastern China or western China), sex, age ≥72 years, gallbladder cancer annual admission of hospitals and cases undergoing ultrasound, CT, serum CA19-9 examination before initially diagnosis were indepen-dent influencing factors influencing initial diagnosis of gallbladder cancer patients ( odds ratio=1.36, 1.42, 0.89, 0.67, 1.85, 1.56, 1.57, 0.39, 95% confidence interval as 1.13-1.64, 1.16-1.73, 0.79-0.99, 0.57-0.78, 1.60-2.14, 1.38-1.77, 1.38-1.79, 0.35-0.43, P<0.05). (4) Surgical treatment and prognosis. Of the 4 049 patients undergoing surgical treatment, there were 2 447 cases(60.435%) with complete pathological staging data and follow-up data. Cases with pathological staging as stage 0, stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ, stage Ⅲa, stage Ⅲb, stage Ⅳa and stage Ⅳb were 85(3.474%), 201(8.214%), 71(2.902%), 890(36.371%), 382(15.611%), 33(1.348%) and 785(32.080%), respectively. The median follow-up time and median postoperative overall survival time of the 2 447 cases were 55.75 months (95% confidence interval as 52.78-58.35) and 23.46 months (95% confidence interval as 21.23-25.71), respectively. There was a significant difference in the overall survival between cases with pathological staging as stage 0, stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ, stage Ⅲa, stage Ⅲb, stage Ⅳa and stage Ⅳb ( χ2=512.47, P<0.001). Of the 4 049 patients undergoing surgical treatment, there were 2 988 cases(73.796%) with resectable tumor, 177 cases(4.371%) with unresectable tumor and 884 cases(21.833%) with tumor unassessable for resectabi-lity. Of the 2 988 cases with resectable tumor, there were 2 036 cases(68.139%) undergoing radical resection, 504 cases(16.867%) undergoing non-radical resection and 448 cases(14.994%) with operation unassessable for curative effect. Of the 2 447 cases with complete pathological staging data and follow-up data who underwent surgical treatment, there were 53 cases(2.166%) with unresectable tumor, 300 cases(12.260%) with resectable tumor and receiving non-radical resection, 1 441 cases(58.888%) with resectable tumor and receiving radical resection, 653 cases(26.686%) with resectable tumor and receiving operation unassessable for curative effect. There were 733 cases not undergoing surgical treatment with complete pathological staging data and follow-up data. There was a significant difference in the overall survival between cases not undergoing surgical treatment, cases undergoing surgical treatment for unresectable tumor, cases undergoing non-radical resection for resectable tumor and cases undergoing radical resection for resectable tumor ( χ2=121.04, P<0.001). (5) Multimodality therapy and prognosis: of 6 159 patients, there were 541 cases(8.784%) under-going postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and advanced chemotherapy, 76 cases(1.234%) under-going radiotherapy. There were 1 170 advanced gallbladder cancer (pathological staging ≥stage Ⅲa) patients undergoing radical resection, including 126 cases(10.769%) with post-operative adjuvant chemotherapy and 1 044 cases(89.231%) without postoperative adjuvant chemo-therapy. There was no significant difference in the overall survival between cases with post-operative adjuvant chemotherapy and cases without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( χ2=0.23, P=0.629). There were 658 patients with pathological staging as stage Ⅲa who underwent radical resection, including 66 cases(10.030%) with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and 592 cases(89.970%) without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. There was no significant difference in the overall survival between cases with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and cases without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy ( χ2=0.05, P=0.817). There were 512 patients with pathological staging ≥stage Ⅲb who underwent radical resection, including 60 cases(11.719%) with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and 452 cases(88.281%) without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. There was no significant difference in the overall survival between cases with postoperative adjuvant chemo-therapy and cases without post-operative adjuvant chemo-therapy ( χ2=1.50, P=0.220). Conclusions:There are more women than men with gallbladder cancer in China and more than half of patients are diagnosed at the age of 56 to 75 years. Cases undergoing ultrasound, CT, serum CA19-9 examination before initial diagnosis are independent influencing factors influencing initial diagnosis of gallbladder cancer patients. Preoperative resectability evaluation can improve the therapy strategy and patient prognosis. Adjuvant chemotherapy for gallbladder cancer is not standardized and in low proportion in China.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the volume ratio of ischemic leukoaraiosis (LA) and cognitive level and arterial perfusion.Methods:Fifty-four patients, who was hospitalized in Dalian Central Hospital and diagnosed as LA clinically during the time of March to December in 2012, were selected to collect the information of the volume ratio of white matter disease, MoCa score and the average flow rate of carotid artery. The correlation between the volume ratio of white matter disease and MoCa score, cognitive impairment and the average flow rate of carotid artery were analyzed.Results:The volume ratio of LA lesions was negatively correlated with MOCA score ( r = -0.59, P<0.01); the volume ratio of LA lesions was negatively correlated with the mean flow rate of internal carotid artery ( r = -0.37, P<0.01). Quantity order of the area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of MoCA cognitive subgroup was as following: delayed memory (1.000)> visual space/executive function (0.970) = abstract force (0.970)> language ability (0.960)> attention (0.888). Conclusions:The larger the volume ratio of leukopathy in LA patients, the more serious the cognitive impairment, especially the cognitive impairment of impairment of memory delay, visual space/executive function, abstract ability and language ability.
