Objective:To study the correlation between anti-gp210 antibody, anti-sp100 antibody with clinical features and prognosis of patients with PBC.Methods:A total of 992 patients with PBC from 9 medical centers in Yunnan Province from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2021 were included retrospectively. The demographic data, medical history, UDCA treatment, laboratory and imaging data were collected, and telephone follow-up was conducted. The positive rates of anti-gp210 antibody and anti-sp100 antibody in PBC patients with different clinical characteristics were compared, and the differences of laboratory parameters and prognosis between the anti-gp210 and anti-sp100 antibodies positive and negative groups were compared. T test, rank sum test, variance analysis were used for statistical analysis.Results:The positive rate of anti-gp210 antibody in Han patients was significantly higher than that in minority patients (21.5% vs 9.9%, χ2=6.88, P=0.009), but there was no significant difference in the positive rate of anti-sp100 antibody between the two groups (10.9% vs 6.6%, χ2=1.62, P=0.204).There were no significant differences in the positive rates of anti-gp210 antibody and anti-sp100 antibody among different genders ( χ2=0.50, P=0.478)( Z=-0.41, P=0.682)and ages( χ2=0.01, P=0.951)( Z=-0.60, P=0.549). There was no significant difference in the positive rate of anti-gp210 antibody between AMA M2 antibody positive and negative patients ( χ2=3.45, P=0.063), PBC patients with Sj?gren′s syndrome compared with those without Sj?gren′s syndrome (21.3% vs 20.4%, χ2=0.05, P=0.828), and PBC patients with viral hepatitis compared with those without viral hepatitis(19.6% vs 20.5%, χ2=0.02, P=0.877).

The positive rate of anti-sp100 antibody was significantly increased in patients with negative AMA M2 antibody PBC patients (20.9% vs 7.2%, χ2=36.54, P<0.001)and patients with PBC confirmed by liver biopsy with unknown diagnosis (17.9% vs 7.5%, χ2=23.40, P<0.001), while in patients with AIH (11.1% vs 10.3%, χ2=0.09, P=0.769), Sj?gren′s syndrome (15.7% vs 10.0%, χ2=2.87, P=0.090), viral hepatitis (4.3% vs 10.8%, χ2=1.94, P=0.164), cirrhosis(10.5% vs 10.5%, χ2<0.01, P=0.991), decompensated symptoms of cirrhosis (10.3% vs 10.6%, χ2=0.03, P=0.868), jaundice (12.5% vs 9.7%, χ2=1.62, P=0.203)and hyperlipidemia (8.7% vs 11.5%, χ2=1.86, P=0.172), the positive rate was not significantly increased. The levels of ALT [71.00(48.00, 111.00)U/L vs 58.00 (31.00,112.75)U/L, Z=-2.63, P=0.009], AST [92.00 (54.00, 133.00)U/L vs 76.00(42.00, 128.00)U/L, Z=-2.73, P=0.006], ALP[306.00(176.00, 528.00)U/L vs 204.00(126.25, 350.75)U/L, Z=-4.78, P<0.001], GGT[284.00(131.00, 524.00)U/L vs 165.00(53.63, 389.00)U/L, Z=-4.36, P<0.001], TBIL[33.60(16.60, 82.10)mmol/L vs 23.45 (14.80, 61.13)mmol/L, Z=-3.00, P=0.003], DBIL [20.30 (6.60, 66.40)mmol/L vs 11.60 (5.90, 45.00)mmol/L, Z=-3.13, P=0.002], bile acid[53.40(19.50, 148.00)mmol/L vs 39.30(11.70, 118.58)mmol/L, Z=-2.26, P=0.024], IgM[3.61(2.03,5.26)g/L vs 2.39(1.37, 3.67)g/L, Z=-5.38, P<0.001] and APTT[37.40(33.10, 41.30)s vs 35.70 (31.30, 41.30)s, Z=-3.28, P=0.001])were significantly increased in patients with positive anti-gp210 antibody compared patients with negative anti-gp210 antibody, while the IgG level was significantly increased in patients with positive anti-sp100 antibody compared with patients with negative anti-gp210 antibody( Z=-2.25, P=0.025), but no other indexes were significantly increased. The Mayo risk score[3.48(2.46, 5.01) vs 3.18 (2.20, 4.64), Z=-2.052, P=0.04] and mortality at the end of follow-up (24.6% vs 16.7%, χ2=6.57, P=0.0.038)in patients with positive anti-gp210 antibody were much higher than those in patients with negative anti-gp210 antibody, but there were no significant differences in Mayo risk score [3.16 (2.21, 4.53) vs 3.28 (2.23,4.71), Z=-0.86, P=0.392] and mortality at the end of follow-up (13.5% vs 18.9%, χ2=2.12, P=0.346) between anti-sp100 antibody positive and negative patients. Conclusion:PBC patients with positive anti-gp210 antibody may have more serious liver pathologic damage and extra-hepatic complications, more serious liver function impairment, more obvious cholestasis, and worse prognosis. Anti-sp100 antibody has been shown to have no significant correlation with disease severity and prognosis.

Objective:To evaluate the deformity changes in the treatment of congenital clubfoot in infants by ultrasound, and to explore its clinical application value.Methods:Seventeen infants with congenital clubfoot treated in the Department of Pediatric Orthopaedics of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from March 2020 to June 2021 and 27 normal infants in the same period were selected. The distance between medial malleolus and scaphoids (MM-N distance) of all feet was measured by ultrasound. The distance from the tangent line of the lateral edge of calcaneus to the midpoint of the lateral edge of the chondroid bone (C-C distance), medial soft tissue thickness and tibial calcaneal angle were measured by ultrasound. The data before, after treatment and during follow-up were statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 88 feet of 44 infants were evaluated. The mean number of cast was 4.7±1.1, the follow-up time was (96.9±59.3)days. The MM-N distance, C-C distance and posterior tibial calcaneal angle in the clubfoot group were improved after treatment and at the last follow-up, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.01). During the treatment, 1 case had false correction, and 2 cases recurred in the last follow-up. Conclusions:Ultrasound can clearly display the medial, dorsal, lateral and posterior articular structures of normal and clubfoot, and can observe the deformity changes of clubfoot during the correction process, which can provide guidance for the clinical treatment of clubfoot.

OBJECTIVE: To explore whether MRI fusion technology (combined T2-weighted imaging [T2WI] and fat-suppressed T2WI [T2WI-(FS)]) improves signal differences between anal fistulas and surrounding structures. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 32 patients with confirmed diagnoses of anal fistula were retrospectively studied. All available T2WI and T2WI-(FS) images for each patient were used to generate fusion image (T2WI-(Fusion)) based on the addition of gray values obtained from each pixel via an MR post-processing work station. The discriminability of fistula, perianal sphincter, and perianal fat in T2WI, T2WI-(FS), and T2WI-(Fusion) images was quantified with Fisher's scoring algorithm. For subjective visual image assessment by researchers, five-point scale scores were determined using a modified double-stimulus continuous quality-scale test to evaluate T2WI-(FS), T2WI, enhanced axial three-dimensional-volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination (3D-VIBE), and T2WI-(Fusion) sequence images. The differences were subsequently compared. RESULTS: Mean Fisher scores for fistulas vs. sphincters obtained from T2WI-(Fusion) (F(Fusion-fistula) = 6.56) were significantly higher than those from T2WI (F(T2WI-fistula) = 3.35) (p = 0.001). Mean Fisher scores for sphincters vs. fat from T2WI-(Fusion) (F(Fusion-sphincter) = 10.84) were significantly higher than those from T2WI-(FS) (FS(FS-sphincter) = 2.57) (p = 0.001). In human assessment, T2WI-(Fusion) showed the same fistula discriminability as T2WI-(FS), and better sphincter discriminability than T2WI. Overall, T2WI-(Fusion) showed better discriminability than T2WI, T2WI-(FS), and enhanced 3D-VIBE images. CONCLUSION: T2WI and T2WI-(FS) fusion technology improves signal differences between anal fistulas and surrounding structures, and may facilitate better evaluation of anal fistulas and sphincters.

OBJECTIVETo compare the difference of the diameters of superior mesenteric vein (SMV) and gastrocolic trunk (GCT) between patients with cecum-ascending colon cancer and normal individuals, and to assess the diagnostic value of the diameters of SMV and GCT in cecum-ascending colon cancer.
METHODSPreoperative imaging data of 60 patients with primary cecum-ascending colon cancer confirmed by postoperative pathology at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from June 2014 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. The diameters of SMV and GCT were measured on preoperative CT images. SMV was measured at about 2 cm below the junction of SMV and splenic vein. GCT was measured at 1 cm near the proximal junction of right colon vein, right gastroepiploic vein and anterior pancreaticoduodenal vein. Another 60 people receiving pelvic CT examination without organ illness were collected as control. The diameter differences of SMV and GCT between cancer group and control group were compared. The diagnostic value of the diameters of SMV and GCT in cecum-ascending colon cancer was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.
RESULTSAmong 60 cases of cecum-ascending colon cancer, 36 were males and 24 were females with median age of 48 years (range 28-84); 13 were cecum cancer, 47 were ascending colon cancer; 11 had no lymph node and liver metastasis, 40 had lymph node metastasis, 9 had liver metastasis (all with lymph node metastasis). Compared to control group, the diameters of SMV and GCT in cancer group were significantly longer [SMV:(11.2±1.3) mm vs. (9.5±1.7) mm, t=6.04, P<0.001; GCT:(5.5±0.9) mm vs. (3.5±1.0) mm, t=11.51, P<0.001]. However, there were no statistically significant differences in diameters of SMV and GCT among hepatic metastasis, lymph node metastasis and no metastasis cancer groups (all P>0.05). The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of SMV diameter was 0.777, and the optimal cut-off point was 10.5 mm in the diagnosis of cecum-ascending colon cancer, with the sensitivity and specificity of 95.0%(57/60) and 46.7%(28/60) respectively. The area under the curve of GCT diameter was 0.923, and the optimal cut-off point was 4.5 mm in the diagnosis of cecum-ascending colon cancer, with sensitivity and specificity of 88.3%(53/60) and 85.0%(51/60) respectively.
CONCLUSIONThe dilation of the SMV and GCT may be used as warning factors for cecum-ascending colon cancer, especially the diameter of GCT.
