We reported a 32 years female patient in whom lung metastasis from breast cancer was presented as solitary pulmonary pure ground-glass opacity (GGO) lesion. The patient received rational preoperative examinations and surgery though the preoperative diagnosis was not accurate. Because of different therapy strategies and purposes, it is crucial to make distinction of atypical metastases from primary cancers. Thus, for patients with a history of malignancy, possible metastasis should be taken into consideration if new GGO was found on the CT. Besides this, the follow-up interval of CT should be shortened appropriately, preoperative examinations and surgical procedures should be made according to the suggestions of multidisciplinary team.

Background::In the clinic, practitioners encounter many patients with an abnormal pattern of dense punctate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signal in the basal ganglia, a phenomenon known as "cheese sign". This sign is reported as common in cerebrovascular diseases, dementia, and old age. Recently, cheese sign has been speculated to consist of dense perivascular space (PVS). This study aimed to assess the lesion types of cheese sign and analyze the correlation between this sign and vascular disease risk factors.Methods::A total of 812 patients from Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH) dementia cohort were enrolled. We analyzed the relationship between cheese sign and vascular risk. For assessing cheese sign and defining its degree, the abnormal punctate signals were classified into basal ganglia hyperintensity (BGH), PVS, lacunae/infarctions and microbleeds, and counted separately. Each type of lesion was rated on a four-level scale, and then the sum was calculated; this total was defined as the cheese sign score. Fazekas and Age-Related White Matter Changes (ARWMC) scores were used to evaluate the paraventricular, deep, and subcortical gray/white matter hyperintensities.Results::A total of 118 patients (14.5%) in this dementia cohort were found to have cheese sign. Age (odds ratio [OR]: 1.090, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.064-1.120, P <0.001), hypertension (OR: 1.828, 95% CI: 1.123-2.983, P = 0.014), and stroke (OR: 1.901, 95% CI: 1.092-3.259, P = 0.025) were risk factors for cheese sign. There was no significant relationship between diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and cheese sign. The main components of cheese sign were BGH, PVS, and lacunae/infarction. The proportion of PVS increased with cheese sign severity. Conclusions::The risk factors for cheese sign were hypertension, age, and stroke. Cheese sign consists of BGH, PVS, and lacunae/infarction.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of tenofovir amibufenamide in patients over 65 years old with chronic hepatitis B and liver cirrhosis.Methods:We recruited 45 patients in Linyi People's Hospital with chronic hepatitis B and liver cirrhosis who were treated with TMF antiviral therapy for 48 weeks, compared the virologic response rate and HBV DNA decrease level at 12, 24 and 48 weeks, and the changes in hepatitis B surface antigen, alanine aminotransferase, glomerular filtration rate, creatinine, triglycerides, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, serum phosphorus and blood lipids, and the changes in ALT normalization rate at 48 weeks. P<0.05 was statistically significant. Results:The age of the enrolled patients was 69.0 (67.0, 72.5) years. At 12, 24, and 48 weeks of treatment, the complete virological response rates were 32.4% (12/37), 70.0% (28/40), and 84.6% (33/39) respectively, and the level of HBV DNA decreased from baseline ( P<0.05). After 48 weeks of treatment, the level of HBsAg decreased ( P<0.05), and there was no negative HBsAg conversion and seroconversion. After 48 weeks of treatment, the level of ALT decreased ( P<0.05). At 48 weeks of treatment, the rates of ALT reverted to normality were 88.9% (16/18) and 70.4% (19/27), respectively. There was no significant difference in the levels of glomerular filtration rate, creatinine, phosphorus, triglycerides, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol estimated at baseline before and after treatment ( P>0.05), and no serious adverse events were observed. Conclusions:For patients over 65 years old with chronic hepatitis B and liver cirrhosis, TMF can significantly inhibit HBV DNA replication, and the ALT normalization rate is high and well tolerated.
