Objective:To evaluate the predictive value of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score and the Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS)score for bleeding in patients with acute cerebral infarction after thrombolytic therapy.Methods:A total of 281 patients with acute cerebral infarction were enrolled at Henan Provincial People's Hospital and were treated with urokinase or recombinant human tissue plasminogen activator(rt-PA)for thrombolysis.The patients were followed up for up to 1 month after thrombolysis.Data on age, sex, time to thrombolysis, smoking, systolic blood pressure, platelets, prothrombin time, international normalized ratio, and NIHSS and GCS scores were collected.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify related factors for bleeding after thrombolysis in acute cerebral infarction and the receiver-operating characteristic curve(ROC)was used to assess the predictive values of these factors through calculating the area under the curve(AUC).Results:Logistic regression analysis showed that time to thrombolysis, prothrombin time before thrombolysis, NIHSS score before thrombolysis, NIHSS score 24 h after thrombolysis, GCS score before thrombolysis, and GCS score 24 h after thrombolysis were independent factors for hemorrhage after thrombolytic therapy( OR=23.318, 0.238, 17.099, 4.561, 0.004, and 0.258, P=0.038, 0.021, 0.038, 0.027, 0.006, and 0.040, respectively).ROC curve analysis showed that NIHSS score before thrombolysis, NIHSS score 24 h after thrombolysis, and time to thrombolysis were important factors for predicting bleeding after thrombolysis(AUC=0.833, 0.795, and 0.714, respectively, all P=0.000). Conclusions:For patients with acute cerebral infarction, the risk of bleeding after thrombolysis is significantly increased if the NIHSS score is unfavorable before thrombolysis or 24 h after thrombolysis, or the duration of acute cerebral infarction is long.Attention to risk factors and early intervention are warranted.

Objective:To explorethe the clinical manifestations, treatment and prognosis of anastomotic pseudoaneurysm after renal transplantation caused by infection.Methods:Clinical data of 1 recipient with pseudoaneurysm after renal transplantation due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection were retrospectively analysed and combined with a literature review. Results:At Month 2 post-transplantation, the recipient developed right lower abdominal pain, and contrast-enhanced ultrasound examination showed a pseudoaneurysm at the artery anastomosis. Anti-infection and anti-rejection therapy had no obvious effect, and therefore next surgical exploration was performed. A size4.0 cm×3.5cm pseudoaneurysm was found intraoperatively at the graft renal artery anastomosis.After graft was evaluated as having no preservation value, the transplanted kidney and pseudoaneurysm were resected. Bacterial culture indicated Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection.The recipient recovered well and waited for next transplantation. Conclusions:Pseudoaneurysm of transplanted kidney is a very rare complication after renal transplantation, and caused by infection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is more rarer, It has not been reported in mainland China.This type of recipient has the characteristics of high graft inactivation rate and high mortality rate. Timely surgical resection can effectively prevent the deterioration of disease.

Objective:This study aimed to investigate the changes of ventricular repolarization index on ECG and its relationship between prognosis in patients with acute cerebral trauma.Methods:From January 2014 to January 2018, data of 289 consecutive patients with emergency traumatic brain injuries were prospectively collected and ultimately 219 cases were selected into the study group. Meanwhile, 220 healthy persons matched by age and sex served as the control group. ECG indexes such as P wave dispersion (Pd), corrected QT(QTc), Tp-e and Tp-e/QT were all measured and calculated in the 1st and 72th hour. The independent sample t test and paired t test were used to compare the changes of the above indexes on the 1st day and the control group, the 1st day and the 3rd day, respectively, and the association between ECG indexes and the illness severity or adverse events (MACE) of the trauma group during hospitalization. Results:QTc, Tpec and Tp-e/QT of the acute cerebral trauma group increased on the 3rd day compared with the control group and on the first day, the differences were statistically significant ( P all <0.05). Tp-ec and Tp-e/QT in patients with moderate to severe brain injury in Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) were increased, and the differences were statistically significant (150.48±16.58 vs 130.14±11.86, P=0.006). 0.29±0.04 vs 0.23±0.03, P=0.030). Tpec and Tp-e/QT were significantly increased in acute brain truma patients with MACE during hospitalization compared with those without MACE (149.76±12.52 vs 128.84±12.47, P <0.001). 0.30±0.04 vs 0.21±0.03,<0.001). Conclusion:Tp-e and Tp-e/QT in patients with acute cerebral trauma are correlated to the severity of the disease, which could be used as short-term prognostic indicators under certain conditions.

Objective: To analyze clinical features and prognosis of 15 children with hydroa vacciniforme-like lymphoproliferative disorder (HVLPD) . Methods: Clinical features, histopathological findings, treatment outcomes in 15 patients, who were diagnosed with HVLPD in the Department of Dermatology, Children′s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from 2014 to 2018, were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Among the 15 patients, 7 were males and 8 were females. The age of onset ranged from 2 to 13 years, and the average age was 6.5 years. Main clinical manifestations included facial edema, and papules, blisters, ulcers and crusts repeatedly occurring on both the sun-exposed parts such as the face and limbs and non-sun-exposed parts such as the trunk. Of the 15 patients, 13 had intermittent fever, 13 had hepatosplenomegaly, and 15 had lymphadenectasis. Moreover, kidney failure occurred in 1 patient, hemophagocytic syndrome occurred in 2, and lymphoma occurred in 1. Laboratory examination showed that 15 patients were all positive for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) -immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody, and all negative for EBV-IgM antibody. Additionally, high replication of EBV DNA was detected. Histopathological study of skin lesions showed mild to dense perivascular and periadnexal infiltration of lymphocytes in the dermis and subcutaneous tissue. Immunohistochemistry study showed positive staining for CD4 and CD8 in 13 of 15 patients, for CD56 in 7 of 15 patients, and for CD3 in 12 of 13 patients. Moreover, 9 of 11 cases were detected positive for T-cell intracellular antigen-1, 8 cases were all detected positive for granzyme B, and the Ki-67 proliferation index ranged from 3% to 50% in 11 of 12 cases. The treatment protocols were similar among the 15 patients. After the treatment, 2 patients showed stable disease condition, and 10 experienced relapse. During the follow-up, 2 patients developed hemophagocytic syndrome, 1 developed lymphoma, and the 3 patients finally died of the worsening condition after chemotherapy. Conclusions HVLPD is closely associated with chronic active EBV infection. Its clinical symptoms can be relieved after immunomodulatory therapies such as glucocorticoids, gamma globulin and interferon, and the clinical manifestations, treatment outcomes and prognosis vary greatly among different patients.

Objective To investigate the application value of CT perfusion (CTP) imaging for the revascularization treatment in adult patients with Moyamoya disease.Methods Adult patients with Moyamoya disease underwent revascularization in the Department of Neurosurgery,Wuhan No.1 Hospital from July 2009 to December 2016 were analyzed retrospectively.CTP and clinical evaluation were performed before and after 3-6 months of procedure.The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used to assess the functional outcomes.Results A total of 20 patients were enrolled in the study,including 9 females and 11 males,aged 29 to 73 years,with an average of 53.5 years.The initial symptom was ischemic stroke in 10 patients,transient isehemic attack in 7 patients,and hemorrhagic stroke in 3 patients.All patients underwent superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery bypass grafting plus encephalomyo-synangiosis under general anesthesia.All patients have different degrees of improvement in cerebral blood flow after procedure,and the CTP parameters were significantly improved compared with those before procedure (all P ＜0.05).The clinical symptoms were significantly improved in 3 cases (15％) and recovered in 13 cases (65％) at 6 months after procedure.The proportion of the mRS score 0-2 was significantly higher than that before procedure (90.0％ [18/20] 对 50.0％ [10/20];x2 =7.619,P =0.006).Conclusion CTP can evaluate the cerebral perfusion status in various vascular areas through hemodynamic parameters in early stage,which can effectively guide the operation mode of Moyamoya disease,and evaluate the changes of cerebral perfusion status after procedure as a means of follow-up of the disease.

Objective To analyze and compare the independent and combined diagnostic values of high frequency ultrasonography (HFU) and molybdenum target imaging (MTI) for early breast tumor in a prospective study.Methods 258 patients with breast mass which were suspected as breast tumors by physical examination received HFU,MTI,their combined applications and operative treatments.Comparative studies were made between the surgical pathology and imaging evaluations.Results Totally 258 cases were enrolled in this study.Surgical pathology confirmed 135 cases of early breast cancer and 123 cases of benign breast tumor.For the diagnosis of early breast cancer,combined application was more effective than HFU or MTI alone in sensitivity (P<0.05),and more superior than MTI alone in accuracy.While the specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value, false positive rate, false negative rate had no difference among HFU, MTI and combined applications (P>0.05).In the patients of early breast cancer, compared with HFU,MTI found less nodules of calcification(18.3% vs 36.5%,P<0.01),but revealed more axillary lymph metastasis (69.0% vs 33.3%,P<0.01).Conclusion HFU and MTI alone or their combined application are reliable imaging methods for the diagnosis of early breast cancer.For the sensitivity and accuracy of diagnosis, combined applications has more superior advantages.

Objective To investigate the current status about the application of alteplase (rt-PA) for intravenous thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke patients,and clarify the relevant factors affecting patients'compliance of intravenous thrombolysis.Methods The acute ischemic stroke patients admitted in Department of Emergency,from January 2014 to December 2015 were recruited for study prospectively.After the patients with contraindications of thrombolysis were excluded,the eligible patients were divided into two groups,intravenous thrombolysis group (ITG) and non-intravenous thrombolysis group (NTG).Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to determine the optimal cutoff point and the crucial NIHSS score of patients for decision on thrombolysis therapy.Results There were 230 patients with acute ischemic stroke occurred in the period of two years.Of 189 eligible patients,33 refused the intravenous thrombolysis treatment (NTG) whereas 156 willing to take the intravenous thrombolysis treatment (ITG).The intravenous thrombolysis rate of eligible ischemic stroke patients reached to Henan Provincial People's Hospital within the time window (4.5 hours) was 67.8％ without contraindications.The results of the single-factor analysis for the patients of the two groups displayed that the differences in factors including age,baseline NIHSS score,limb weakness,hemiplegic paralysis,dysphasia,as well as dizziness were significant between two groups (t =2.578,P =0.047;U =157.221,P =0.000;x2 =26.702,P =0.000;x2=9.069,P =0.003;x2 =7.381,P =0.007;x2 =28.636,P =0.000).The ROC analysis demonstrated the relationship between the baseline NIHSS score and the patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis.When NIHSS score ＜ 7,patients tended to refuse the treatment with intravenous thrombolysis (sensitivity 0.87,specificity 0.82).Among the patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis,the significant differences in intracranial hemorrhage rate,hospitalization mortality rate and 3-month mortality rate were not found between the patients with baseline NIHSS score≥7 and score ＜7 (1.9％ vs.3.9％,P =0.662;1.9％ vs.7.8％,P =0.168 and 3.8％ vs.11.7％,P =0.142,respectively).However a higher rate of favorable prognosis (3-month modified Rankin Scale score ≤ 1) was observed in thrombolysis patients (75.5％ vs.41.7％,P =0.000).Conclusions Factors such as age,baseline NIHSS score,limb weakness,hemiplegic paralysis,dysphasia,as well as dizziness are supposed to be associated with patients' compliance of intravenous thrombolysis.

Objective To study the Homer1a protein expression and its relationship with neurological deficit and neuronal apoptosis in craniocerebral trauma patients. Methods Forty-two craniocerebral trauma patients, admitted to our hospital from May 2012 to March 2016, were selected as craniocerebral trauma group; 50 healthy subjects accepted physical examination at the same period in our hospital were selected as normal control group (n=50). Immediately after admission, serum contents of Homer1a protein and nerve function damage indices (neurospecific estrogenase [NSE]), fatty acid binding protein [FABP], insulin-like growth factor [IGF-1], and S100B protein) were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Serum apoptotic indices (soluble apoptotic factor [(sFas)], sFas ligand [sFasL], and cell lymphoma-2 [Bcl-2]) were detected by radioimmunoassay. Results Immediately after admission, serum content of Homer1a protein content in craniocerebral trauma group ([113.27±12.19] pg/mL) was significantly higher than that in normal control group ([53.93±4.06] pg/mL, P<0.05); the median serum Homer1a protein level was 115.302 pg/mL, and according to this level, the patients from the craniocerebral trauma group were further divided into high Homer1a group and low Homer1a group. Serum NSE, FABP, S100B, sFas and sFasL levels in the high Homer1a group, low Homer1a group and normal control group were decreased in sequence, and IGF-1 and Bcl-2 levels increased in sequence, with significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion Expression of Homer1a protein is increased in patients with traumatic brain injury, and its content is directly related to nerve injury and neuron apoptosis.

Objective To observe the expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxy-genase(IDO) in hippocampus of rats with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and the protective effect of IDO inhibitor on neurons,and to explore the role of IDO in the pathogenesis of PTSD.Methods Adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into the normal control group,PTSD model group and IDO inhibitor treatment group.The expression of IDO was detected by immunohistochemistry,RT-PCR and Western-blot.The apoptosis of rat hippocampal neurons was assayed by Tunel staining.Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were detected by ELISA.Moreover behavioral evaluation was performed,including central residence time,percentage of open arm residence time and stage latency.Results Comparing with the control group,PTSD rats showed decreased central residence time ((22.65± 1.54)s),decreased percentage of open arm residence time((10.55± 1.96) ％),prolonged stage latency ((56.38±4.21) s) (P＜0.05),increased TNF-α ((8.58±0.6) pg/ml),IL-6 ((15.72±1.42) pg/ml) and IDO mRNA (0.8278±0.0796),increased IDO protein (1.2329±0.1148) expression and apoptosis rate ((81.47± 6.86) ％) in hippocampus (P＜ 0.05) (P＜ 0.05).However,rats treated with IDO inhibitor showed increased central residence time((30.78±3.20) s),increased percentage of open arm residence time ((10.55± 1.96)％),shortened stage latency ((56.38 4.21) s),meanwhile reduced expression of TNF-α((3.69±0.41) pg/ml),IL-6((7.45±0.58) pg/ml),IDO mRNA(0.2236 ±0.0387) and IDO protein(0.4235±0.0411) was detected in hippocampus(P＜0.05).Apoptosis rate ((42.54± 3.98)％) was also decreased in hippocampus(P＜0.05).Conclusion The content of TNF-α,IL-6 and IDO are increased significantly in the hippocampus of PTSD rats.IDO may participate in the pathogenesis of PTSD,and the IDO inhibitor may play a neuroprotective role in hippocampus of PTSD.
