Acute cerebellitis is one of the main causes of acute cerebellar dysfunction in children. It is either infectious, usually viral, post-infectious or post vaccinal in etiology. Diagnosing acute cerebellitis may be difficult in patients with only subtle cerebellar signs and when cerebro-spinal fluid examination is normal. MRI is the most adequate imaging technique to demonstrate cerebellar involvement. The authors report the clinical and neuro-imaging findings in 4 paediatric cases. Patient's age varied from 2 to 7 years and predominant clinical symptoms were fever, headache and vomiting; ataxia was noted only in 2 cases. Viral serologic tests were negative in 3 cases and demonstrated Epstein-Barr virus in 1. Initial MRI examination (2 cases) demonstrated increased intensity on T2W and Flair sequences of the cerebellar gray matter with pial enhancement. Clinical outcome was good with complete resolution of symptoms in 3 cases and persistent mild right upper limb paresis in one. The resolution of the signal abnormality was well demonstrated on MRI in one case, suggesting an inflammatory etiology with moderate residual cerebellar atrophy. 相似文献

In this paper, we propose a H.264/AVC based compression technique adapted to coronary angiograms. H.264/AVC coder has proven to use the most advanced and accurate motion compensation process, but, at the cost of high computational complexity. On the other hand, analysis of coronary X-ray images reveals large areas containing no diagnostically important information. Our contribution is to exploit the energy characteristics in slice equal size regions to determine the regions with relevant information content, to be encoded using the H.264 coding paradigm. The others regions, are compressed using fixed block motion compensation and conventional hard-decision quantization. Experiments have shown that at the same bitrate, this procedure reduces the H.264 coder computing time of about 25% while attaining the same visual quality. A subjective assessment, based on the consensus approach leads to a compression ratio of 30:1 which insures both a diagnostic adequacy and a sufficient compression in regards to storage and transmission requirements. 相似文献

Severe thoracic sarcoidosis includes manifestations with significant clinical and functional impairment and a risk of mortality. Severe thoracic sarcoidosis can take on various clinical presentations and is associated with increased morbidity. The purpose of this article was to describe the CT findings in severe thoracic sarcoidosis and to explain some of their mechanisms. Subacute respiratory insufficiency is a rare and early complication due to a high profusion of pulmonary lesions. Chronic respiratory insufficiency due to pulmonary fibrosis is a frequent and late complication. Three main CT patterns are identified: bronchial distortion, honeycombing and linear opacities. CT can be helpful in diagnosing some mechanisms of central airway obstruction such as bronchial distortion due to pulmonary fibrosis or an extrinsic bronchial compression by enlarged lymph nodes. An intrinsic narrowing of the bronchial wall by endobronchial granulomatous lesions may be suggested by CT when it shows evidence of bronchial mural thickening. Pulmonary hypertension usually occurs in patients with end-stage pulmonary disease and is related to fibrotic destruction of the distal capillary bed and to the resultant chronic hypoxemia. Several other mechanisms may contribute to the development of pulmonary hypertension including extrinsic compression of major pulmonary arteries by enlarged lymph nodes and secondary pulmonary veno-occlusive disease. Aspergilloma colonization of a cavity is the main cause of hemoptysis in sarcoidosis. Other rare causes are bronchiesctasis, necrotizing bronchial aspergillosis, semi-invasive pulmonary aspergillosis, erosion of a pulmonary artery due to a necrotic sarcoidosis lesion, necrosis of parenchymal sarcoidosis lesions and specific endobronchial macroscopic lesions. 相似文献

BackgroundFunctional ankle instability affects 20–40% of individuals who have already suffered from a sprain. Such dysfunctions are difficult to diagnose. Therefore, the information provided by self-administered questionnaires is essential. Thus, the Ankle Instability Instrument (AII) was developed and initially validated in English. Our goal is to create a French version of the instrument, named AII-F, by scrupulously respecting the cultural adaptation phases and to make sure the new instrument has good psychometric properties.MethodsInternational recommendations have been rigorously followed for the cultural adaptation and the French-translation phase. Six steps are recommended: I) two initial translations from English to French; II) synthesis of the two versions; III) back-translations from French to English; IV) comparisons between the back-translations and the original questionnaire by the expert committee; V) pretest; and VI) approval of the final French version of the AII. In order to validate this French-translation, 91 subjects suffering from ankle instability matched to 91 healthy subjects were asked to complete the AII-F. The Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) was used as a comparative questionnaire as well as the French Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT-F). The psychometric properties of the questionnaire were evaluated by determining the test-retest reliability after a 10–14-day interval, the internal consistency, construct validity, and the floor/ceiling effects.ResultsThe French-translation did not pose a problem and could be validated by the expert committee. The AII-F showed a very good test-retest reliability for the total score, with an Intra Class Coefficient of 0.983. The internal coherence is high with an alpha coefficient of Cronbach of 0.861. The association of the AII-F with the CAIT-F was high, for the summary of the physical component of the SF-36, meaning a great convergent validity. The other subscales of the SF-36 (mental health) were weakly correlated with the AII-F, reflecting good divergent validity. An optimal cut-off score was obtained to dissociate pathological patients from healthy subjects: when the subject responded to “yes” 5 times or more, he is considered, with a very high degree of confidence, to be pathological.ConclusionThe AII-F is reliable and valid for evaluating and measuring functional ankle instability. 相似文献

Oligodendrogliomas are the tumors of normal glial cells of brain called oligodendrocytes. They represent a small proportion of childhood brain tumors and are infrequently encountered in the posterior fossa. CT scan and MRI are very helpful for the preoperative management of oligodendrogliomas. However, due to the rarity and non-specific imaging features, it may be difficult to differentiate oligodendroglioma from astrocytoma especially in an infratentorial location. The short- and long-term outcome and the exact treatment protocol of posterior fossa oligodendroglioma is yet to be established. We report a rare case of an oligodendroglioma of the vermis in an 8-year-old female with a brief review of the literature. 相似文献

This study was performed to investigate the role of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in the diagnosis of adult onset Still disease (AOSD) and its performance to improve the sensitivity of the classifications criteria (Yamaguchi and Fautrel Classifications).We conducted a multicenter prospective nationwide case-control study in Internal medicine, Rheumatology and Infectious disease departments, to include successively patients with suspected AOSD (2 or more major criteria of Yamaguchi or Fautrel classifications). All clinical and biological features were collected in a consensual and standardized clinical assessment at baseline and during follow-up. A receiving operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to reassess the cutoff value of NLR. After determination of the cutoff value for NLR by ROC curve, 2 composite sets (Yamaguchi classification + NLR as a major criterion and Fautrel classification + NLR as a major criterion) were performed and evaluated.One hundred sixty patients were included, 80 patients with AOSD and 60 controls with different diagnoses. Twenty patients with incomplete data were excluded. The cutoff value for NLR equals 4 (area under the curve, AUC: 0.82). The NLR was ≥ 4 in 93.7% (75/80) of AOSD patients with a sensitivity of 93.8% and specificity of 61.7%. The association of NLR as a major criterion with the classification of Yamaguchi or Fautrel improved their sensitivity, respectively for Fautrel (76.3% to 92.5%, P = .004) and Yamaguchi (78.8% to 90%, P = .05).This study validates the NLR as a good simple biomarker of AOSD with a cutoff value of 4 and high sensitivity (93.8%). The addition of NLR (NLR ≥ 4) as a major criterion to the classifications (Yamaguchi and Fautrel) improved significantly their sensitivity and accuracy. 相似文献
