Purpose To investigate the predictive value of 18F-FDG PET/CT radiomic features before treatment for progression free survival(PFS)and overall survival(OS)in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL).Materials and Methods A total of 135 patients with pathologically proven DLBCL in Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2016 to December 2018 and 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging prior to treatment were retrospectively collected.Patients were randomly divided into training set and test set using 8∶2,and then the training set was divided into training set and verification set using 8∶2 to construct the model.Semi-automatically delineated patients'lymphoma lesions as regions of interest and extracted the features.Univariate COX and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression were used to screen the features,and the non-zero radiomic features were obtained and the weight coefficients were used to calculate the Radscore value of each patient,and the predictive value of Radscore on PFS and OS was analyzed.Three models were established using traditional prognostic indicators(metabolic parameters and clinical factors),Radscore and combination.C-index,time-dependent area under the curve and decision curve were used to evaluate the model prediction efficiency.Finally,based on the optimal model,a column diagram was drawn,and the calibration curve was used to verify the efficiency of the column diagram.Results The combined model predicted PFS and OS at 3 and 5 years better than the traditional prognostic index model and Radscore model(Z=0.962 1-2.253 9,all P<0.05).Decision curve showed that the combined model achieved the greatest clinical net benefit.The calibration curve showed that the predicted values of the nomogram were in good agreement with the observed values.Conclusion Radscore is an independent prognostic factor for survival in DLBCL patients.The combined model has great application value in guiding the formulation of clinical individualized treatment plan.

Objective:To investigate the effect of different acquisition duration of brain image of 18F-florbetaben(18F-FBB)positron emission tomography(PET)on standardized uptake value(SUV).Methods:Eight subjects who underwent 18F-FBB PET examination in Chinese PLA General Hospital from May 2021 to June 2021 were selected,including 5 persons of healthy control and 3 patients with mild cognitive impairment(MCI).All subjects underwent 18F-FBB PET imaging,and the dynamic PET images of them on brains were continuously acquired for 20 min between 90 and 110 min after the 18F-FBB injection was injected as(3.7-5.5 MBq/kg).Under the situation that other reconstruction parameters did not change,the images were reconstructed at 0-1,0-3,0-5,0-10,0-15 and 0-20 min,respectively.The same of region of interest(ROI)ranges were delineated in bilateral frontal cortex,bilateral temporal cortex,bilateral parietal cortex,posterior cingulate gyrus and cerebellar cortex of each group of images.And then,the corresponding mean standardized uptake value(SUVmean)of each region was obtained.The differences of SUVmean values of different ROI values between each group of data images and the images of 0-20 min were compared and analyzed.Results:There were significant differences in SUVmean between the acquired images in 0-1,0-3,0-5 and 0-10 min and the acquired standard images of 0-20 min(t=-7.569--2.410,P<0.05),respectively.There were no significant differences in SUVmean between the acquired images of 0-15 min and the acquired standard images of 0-20 min in the bilateral frontal lobe,bilateral temporal lobe,bilateral parietal cortex and posterior cingulate gyrus(P>0.05),only there was significant difference in the cerebellar cortex area between them(t=-5.597,P<0.001).Conclusion:The results of 15 min can reach to the similar results of 20 min in acquiring images,which can shorten the time of examination,and enhance the degrees of comfort and cooperation of patients in examination.It has clinical application value.

Objective:To investigate the changes of non-specific and HBV core antigen (HBcAg)-specific Th9 cells, and intereleukin-9 (IL-9) in HBV-infected patients, and to assess the influence of Th9 cells on CD8 + T cell function. Methods:Twelve patients with acute hepatitis B (AHB) and 58 with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), who were hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University between January 2018 and January 2019, were enrolled in this study. Twenty healthy subjects negative for HBsAg were selected as controls. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and plasma samples were isolated. Non-specific Th9 cells (CD3 + CD4 + IL-9 + ) and HBcAg-specific Th9 cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. Plasma IL-9 level was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. CHB patients received tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) antiviral therapy. The changes of non-specific Th9 cells, HBcAg-specific Th9 cells and plasma IL-9 level were assessed 48 weeks after TDF therapy. CD4 + CCR4 -CCR6 -CXCR3 -(Th9) cells and CD8 + T cells were isolated from 12 HLA-A2 restricted CHB patients and co-cultured with HepG2.2.15 cells with the presence of anti-IL-9 neutralizing antibody. The percentage of dead HepG2.2.15 cells and the levels of IFN-γ and TNF-α were detected. Student′s t test, one-way analysis of variance or SNK- q test was used for statistical comparison between groups. Results:There were no significant differences in non-specific Th9 cells or plasma IL-9 level among AHB patients, CHB patients and healthy controls ( P>0.05). HBcAg-specific Th9 cells was down-regulated in CHB patients when compared with AHB patients [(2.49±0.61)% vs (3.19±0.62)%, P<0.001]. The percentage of HBcAg-specific Th9 cells was negatively correlated with HBV DNA ( r=-0.385, P=0.003), but not correlated with ALT ( P>0.05) in CHB patients. TDF therapy for 48 weeks remarkably elevated the HBcAg-specific Th9 cells [(2.94±0.48)%, P<0.001], however, did not affect non-specific Th9 cells or plasma IL-9 level ( P>0.05) in CHB patients. The cytotoxicity of HBcAg-specific Th9 cells was low in CHB patients. However, HBcAg-specific Th9 cells could induce enhanced cytotoxicity of CD8 + T cells to HepG2.2.15 cells, which manifested as increased percentage of dead HepG2.2.15 cells and higher levels of IFN-γ and TNF-α. Anti-IL-9 neutralizing antibody reduced the enhancement of CD8 + T cell cytotoxicity by HBcAg-specific Th9 cells ( P<0.001). Conclusions:Chronic HBV infection might suppress the level and function of HBcAg-specific Th9 cells, resulting in persistent infection.
