Objective:To explore the different patterns of brain structural abnormalities in patients with delayed neuromyelitis optica pedigree disease (LO-NMOSD) and its relationship with clinical neuropsychological scale score based on the quantitative analysis of three-dimensional (3D) brain structure MRI.Methods:Patients with neuromyelitis optica pedigree disease in remission (NMOSD group) who received treatment at Jilin University First Hospital from January 2016 to December 2018 were prospectively included and divided into LO-NMOSD subgroup and early-onset NMOSD (EO-NMOSD) subgroup according to whether the age of first onset was>50 years. Another age-and sex-matched healthy volunteers with NMOSD patients were recruited as the control group. 3D brain T 1WI and T 2 fluid-attenuated inversion recovery sequence imaging were acquired, and clinical data, neuropsychological scores of all subjects were analyzed. Total gray matter volume (GMV), cerebral gray matter fraction (GMF), cerebral white matter fraction (WMF), and cerebral white matter high signal fraction (WMHF) were obtained by quantitative analysis of MRI data using voxel-based morphology and lesion segmentation tool techniques. Analysis of covariance was used to compare the differences in brain structure between LO-NMOSD subgroup and EO-NMOSD subgroup, NMOSD group and control group. Partial correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between GMF, WMHF and patient clinical data, neuropsychological scale scores, and the correlation between WMHF and GMF, WMF. Results:There were 47 cases in the NMOSD group, including 7 males and 40 females aged 18-66 years. Among them, there were 20 cases in the LO-NMOSD subgroup and 27 cases in the EO-NMODS subgroup. The control group consisted of 50 individuals (13 males and 37 females, aged 18 to 77 years). Compared with the control group, the GMV of the right caudate nucleus in the LO-NMOSD group was reduced ( t=3.33, P<0.05), and the GMV of multiple brain regions in the bilateral frontal and temporal lobes in the EO-NMOSD group was reduced considerably (FDR corrected, P<0.05), which was consistent with the NMOSD group. After adjusting for age, there was no statistically significant difference in WMHF between the LO-NMOSD and EO-NMOSD groups ( F=0.22, P=0.644). The LO-NMOSD subgroup showed a negative correlation between global GMF and the extended disability status scale (EDSS) score ( r=-0.53, P=0.025). WMHF in the NMOSD group was positively correlated with annual recurrence rate and EDSS ( r=0.35 and 0.35, respectively, and P=0.017 and 0.018, respectively), while other indicators were not correlated ( P>0.05). The EO-NMOSD subgroup WMHF showed a negative correlation with GMF and WMF ( r=-0.76, -0.70, respectively, P<0.001). The NMOSD group showed a negative correlation between WMHF and GMF, WMF ( r=-0.38, -0.55, respectively, P<0.05). There was no correlation between WMHF and GMF, WMF in the LO-NMOSD subgroup ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The extent and location of gray matter atrophy in patients with LO-NMOSD are different from those of EO-NMOSD. The correlation between WMHF and brain structural changes and clinical data is different between the two groups of patients. These suggest that LO-NMOSD patients may have different patterns of brain structural damage.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility, effectiveness and safety of indocyanine green (ICG) navigation in the surgical resection of abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE).Methods:Seven women undergoing surgery for AWE in First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University (from July 1, 2021 to October 1, 2021) were collected. After exposure of the focus, ICG were used intravenously (0.25 mg/kg) as fluorescent dye for the intraoperative evaluation of AWE vascularization. Resection of the AWE was guided by direct visualization of the focus under standard laparoscopy with a near-infrared (NIR) camera head. Surgical margin around the AWE (3, 6, 9 and 12 point) and the margin under the focus were obtained for postoperative pathological examination of endometriosis. Time from injection to fluorescence visualization, the proportion of fluorescence visualization, time of fully resection of AWE, side effects related to the use of ICG, perioperative complications as well as the pathological result of the surgical margins were recorded.Results:ICG fluorescence of the AWE were seen in 5 patients (5/7). The mean time from injection to fluorescence visualization was (46.7±9.8) s. The mean time of fully resection of AWE was (16.4±7.0) minutes. There were no side effects related to the use of ICG. The rate of class-A wound healing was 7/7. All of the surgical margins were confirmed endometriosis-negative by postoperative pathological examination.Conclusion:ICG fluorescence visualization could conduct accurate resection of AWE, which is clinically safe and effective.

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the clinical effects on primary dysmenorrhea treated with moxibustion at Shenque (CV 8) and warm needling at Guanyuan (CV 4) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6).@*METHODS@#A total of 120 patients with primary dysmenorrhea were randomized into an observation group and a control group, 60 cases in each one. In the control group, the warm needling technique was used at Guanyuan (CV 4) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6). In the observation group, besides the same treatment as the control group, moxibustion was added at Shenque (CV 8). The treatment was given for 4 menstrual cycles consecutively. Before and after treatment, the score of the severity and the score of the total frequency in the retrospective scale of dysmenorrhea symptoms as well as the score of the visual analog scale (VAS) were recorded and compared in the patients between the two groups. Additionally, the safety of the two therapeutic methods was evaluated.@*RESULTS@#After treatment, the score of severity and the score of total frequency as well as VAS score of menstrual pain were all reduced as compared with those before treatment in the patients of the two groups (all 0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#The combined treatment of moxibustion at Shenque (CV 8) with the warm needling technique at Guanyuan (CV 4) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6) achieves the better clinical effects on primary dysmenorrhea as compared with the simple application of the warm needling technique at Guanyuan (CV 4) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6). This therapy is safety in clinical practice.

Objective: To investigate the value of parameters derived from monoexponential, biexponential and stretched exponential intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) DWI models in differentiating tumor recurrence and pseudoprogression in patients with glioblastoma. Methods: Totally 38 patients with pathologically confirmed glioblastoma after surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy were enrolled and divided into tumor recurrence group (n=20) and pseudoprogression group (n=18) according to follow-up or reoperation results. IVIM DWI was performed, and the parameters of monoexponential model (ADC), biexponential model (true molecular diffusion coefficient [D], pseudo-diffusion coefficient [D*], perfusion fraction [f]) and stretched exponential model (distributed diffusion coefficient [DDC], stretched index [α]) were measured and compared between the 2 groups. ROC curve was used to analyze the efficacy of these parameters in differentiating tumor progression and pseudoprogression. Results: ADC, D, DDC and α values were significantly lower in tumor recurrence group than those in pseudoprogression group, while D* and f were significantly higher than those in pseudoprogression group (all P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed AUC of ADC, D, D*, f, DDC and α value for differentiating tumor recurrence and pseudoprogression was 0.908, 0.925, 0.804, 0.743, 0.901 and 0.961, respectively. Conclusion: Parameters derived from monoexponential, biexponential and stretched exponential IVIM models have great value in differentiating tumor recurrence from pseudoprogression in patients with glioblastoma, and α from stretched exponential model has higher efficacy.

BACKGROUND:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s are likely to repair renal injury by differentiating into renal parenchymal cel s. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect and mechanism of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s in the renal repair after mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis. METHODS:Thirty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into normal group, model group and treatment group (n=10 per group). Model group and treatment group were treated with tail vein injection of mouse anti-rat monoclonal antibody Thy1.1 to prepare mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis models. One week after modeling, rats in the treatment group were given 2×106 bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s via the tail vein, and rats in the other two groups were given the same volume of normal saline. Two weeks after transplantation, urinary protein, urea nitrogen, creatinine levels were detected;hematoxylin-eosin staining was used for observing pathological changes of the renal tissue under microscope;and the expression of transforming growth factor beta 1 was detected by immunohistochemistry method. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The levels of urinary protein, urea nitrogen and creatinine as wel as the expression of transforming growth factor beta 1 in the renal tissue arranged in descending order were listed as fol ows:model group>treatment group>control group, and there were significant differences among three groups (P<0.05). In the model group, diffuse glomerular hyperplasia was observed with the presence of increased extracel ular matrix, partial glomerular sclerosis, and interstitial infiltration of inflammatory cel s;in the treatment group, glomerular hyperplasia, mesangial proliferation and inflammatory cel infiltration were al mitigated compared with the model group. Therefore, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel transplantation may contribute to renal repair after mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis, by inhibiting overexpression of transforming growth factor beta 1 in the kidney.

Objective To explore the change of serum insulin-like growth factor-2 (IGF-2) and its relationship with clinical characteristics in patients with schizophrenia. Methods Fifty-one schizophrenic patients were recruited in the present study and 50 healthy volunteers served as controls. The serum IGF-2 level was measured using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) was used to evaluate the psychotic symp?toms of patients. Trail Making Test-A (TMTA), Digit-Symbol Coding Test (DSCT), Continuous Performance Test (CPT) and Stroop Color-Word Test (SCWT) were used to evaluate the cognitive function of both groups. Results There were sig?nificant differences in the results of TMTA, DSCT, CPT and SCWT between patient and control groups. The serum levels of IGF-2 were significantly lower in patients than that in controls [(202.7±40.7) ng/mL vs. (365.9±65.5) ng/mL, P0.05). Furthermore, significant correlations were found between the serum IGF-2 level and the negative symptom sub?scale of PANSS (r=-0.397, P=0.004), CPT score (r=0.378, P=0.006), SCWT-word number (r=0.289, P=0.040), SC? WT-color number (r=0.327, P=0.019) and SCWT-word/color number (r=0.386, P=0.005) in schizophrenic patients. Con?clusion The serum IGF-2 levels of patients with schizophrenia are significantly lower than that of healthy controls, and the IGF-2 level is associated with the severity of negative symptoms and cognitive impairments in patients, indicating that serum IGF-2 might be an indicator of the severity of schizophrenia.
