Quantitative chemical exchange saturation transfer (qCEST) MRI – omega plot analysis of RF‐spillover‐corrected inverse CEST ratio asymmetry for simultaneous determination of labile proton ratio and exchange rate

Chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) MRI is sensitive to labile proton concentration and exchange rate, thus allowing measurement of dilute CEST agent and microenvironmental properties. However, CEST measurement depends not only on the CEST agent properties but also on the experimental conditions. Quantitative CEST (qCEST) analysis has been proposed to address the limitation of the commonly used simplistic CEST‐weighted calculation. Recent research has shown that the concomitant direct RF saturation (spillover) effect can be corrected using an inverse CEST ratio calculation. We postulated that a simplified qCEST analysis is feasible with omega plot analysis of the inverse CEST asymmetry calculation. Specifically, simulations showed that the numerically derived labile proton ratio and exchange rate were in good agreement with input values. In addition, the qCEST analysis was confirmed experimentally in a phantom with concurrent variation in CEST agent concentration and pH. Also, we demonstrated that the derived labile proton ratio increased linearly with creatine concentration (P < 0.01) while the pH‐dependent exchange rate followed a dominantly base‐catalyzed exchange relationship (P < 0.01). In summary, our study verified that a simplified qCEST analysis can simultaneously determine labile proton ratio and exchange rate in a relatively complex in vitro CEST system.

可吸收明胶海绵棒在椎弓根内止血的应用

[目的]观察评价可吸收明胶海绵棒在椎弓根置钉过程中的止血效果。[方法]2017年10月~2018年6月,48例胸腰椎骨折即将行后路手术的患者纳入本研究,采用随机数字表法分为明胶海绵组和骨蜡组。明胶海绵组共23例,置钉过程中应用明胶海绵棒填塞至椎弓根孔道止血;骨蜡组共25例,在透视定位时应用骨蜡封闭椎弓根孔道。记录置钉情况;记录术中出血量、自体血回输量、置钉过程中的出血量、输血量;检测术前和术后5 d RBC、HB和HCT。[结果]两组在置钉总数、伤椎置钉数、伤椎位置各椎置钉数量的差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。术后两组各出现1例小腿肌间静脉血栓,抗凝治疗后于复查时消失。术后两组均无明胶海绵或骨蜡导致的不良反应。两组在术中出血量、术中自体血回收量、输血量的差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),但明胶海绵组上述指标均小于骨蜡组。每钉置入过程中明胶海绵组的出血量显著少于骨蜡组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。两组术后5 d的RBC、HB和HCT均较术前显著减少,两时间点间差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。术前两组在RBC、HB和HCT的差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05),术后5 d两组在RBC、HB和HCT的差异亦均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。[结论]应用明胶海绵棒填塞椎弓根孔道止血可显著减少安置椎弓根螺钉过程中的出血,是一种简单、安全、有效的脊柱外科术中止血方法。     

鼻咽部神经内分泌癌的病理特征和临床分析

目的 探讨鼻咽部神经内分泌癌（neuroendocrine carcinoma，NEC）的临床病理特征、免疫组化特点、治疗方法及预后。方法 回顾性分析12例NEC患者的临床和病理资料，并复习相关文献。 结果 12例患者中，男性10例，女性2例，平均年龄49.4岁，病理类型均为小细胞型NEC。光镜下可见较小瘤细胞，呈圆形、卵圆形和梭形，核深染，胞浆少，核浆比例高，伴有较明显的病理性核分裂象，染色质细腻。免疫表型：CgA、Syn、CD56和EBERs阳性或部分阳性者分别有6例、10例、9例和3例。临床分期Ⅰ期1例，Ⅱ期1例，Ⅲ期4例，Ⅳ期5例，分期不详1例。所有患者均接受放疗和（或）化疗，至随访结束存活者9例，死亡3例。结论 鼻咽部神经内分泌癌临床上较少见，好发于中老年男性，病理类型以小细胞型为主，易出现颈部淋巴转移，就诊时大部分已处中晚期，治疗以放化疗为主。
