Objective To summarize the CT, MRI, and positron emission computed tomography (PET) imaging findings of hematologic malignancies of the pancreas, so as to improve the capacity of its diagnosis. Methods After searching articles concerning radiological research about hematologic malignancies of the pancreas, summarizing its imaging characteristics. Results Hematologic malignancies of the pancreas include pancreatic lymphoma, pancreatic multiple myeloma, myeloid sarcoma, posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorder, and giant lymph node hyperplasia. ① Pancreatic lymphoma: imaging features of pancreatic lymphoma are segmental or diffuse homogeneous enlargement of the pancreas, diameter of mass >5 cm, adenopathy below the level of renal veins, and lack of pancreatic duct dilation. Blurred margins of pancreas by lymphadenopathy is highly suggestive of lymphoma. ② Pancreatic multiple myeloma: pancreatic multiple myeloma are hyperintense on both T1- and T2-weighted images. ③ Pancreatic granulocytic sarcoma: pancreatic granulocytic sarcoma present as homogeneous hypoenhancing mass on CT, usually without pancreatic duct dilation. On MRI, the lesions are isointense and mildly hyperintense on T1- and T2-weighted images respectively. ④ Posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorder: diameter of leison of posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorder usually is >5 cm with poor enhancement. Lesions are mildly hyperintense on T2-weighted images and extremely hypermetabolic on PET images. ⑤ Giant lymph node hyperplasia: it mainly appear as solitary noninvasive masses. Punctate calcification and surrounding supply vessels are observed in hyaline vascular type. Plasma cell type demonstrate unapparent enhancement and less calcification. Conclusions Hematologic malignancies of the pancreas manifest different imaging features on CT, MRI, and PET. Familiarity with such characteristics helps to early recognize diseases and determine next-step measures.
Platelet aggregation test (PAgT), platelet adhesion test (PAdT), thromboplastic activity of factor Ⅷ (FⅧ∶c), antithrombin Ⅲ activity (AT-Ⅲ∶a), antithrombin Ⅲ antigen (AT-Ⅲ∶Ag), von willebrand factor (vWF) and fibrinogen (Fg) were measured in 33 patients with biliary tract diseases and 24 normal individuals. The results showed that there was no significant difference in PAgT, PAdT, AT-Ⅲ∶a and AT-Ⅲ∶Ag between the two groups (Ｐ＞0.05). Fg increased more significantly in biliary tract disease than in the controls (Ｐ＜0.01). FⅧ∶c increased more significantly in patients with obstructive jaundice than in that of nonjaundiced and the controls (Ｐ＜0.01). The levels of vWF increased higher and higher in the sequence of patients with no jaundice, obstructive jaundice due to benign diseases and obstructive jaundice due to malignancy(Ｐ＜0.01). In conclusion, Fg, FⅧ∶c and vWF increased in patients with biliary tract disease.
目的:探讨自体血液回收技术对循环、血细胞和凝血功能的影响及应用效果。方法: 选择急诊大失血手术患者27例,采用ZITI-2000型血液回收机回收血液,经过滤、离心、清洗后回输给患者。分不同时点观察HR、SBP、MAP、DBP、SPO2的变化,并监测RBC、Plt、HB、Hct、FIB、PT、APTT的变化。计算输血量和异体输血率。随机选择8例进行回收原血和回输 血血细胞学比较。结果:(1)术前血压较低,心率较快,回输血液后,HR显著降低(Plt;0.01),SBP和MAP显著升高(Plt;0.01)。(2)术前RBC、HB和Hct均低于正常水平,回输后各时点均升高明显(Plt;0.01)。术前FIB和Plt低于正常水平,回输后各时点增高,但无显著意义。PT、APTT无明显变化。(3)回收原血平均每例3735mL,回输血平均每例1589mL,异体输血率为25％。(4)回输血RBC、HB和Hct均显著高于回收原血(Plt;0.01)。结论:自体血液回收技术用于临床安全可靠,能有效维持循环的稳定,对凝血功能无明显影响,节约血源,减少异体输血。
Objective To evaluate the effect of Fogarty balloon catheter embolectomy on arteriovenous graft thrombosis in hemodialysis patients. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 11 patients who underwent maintaining hemodialysis and arteriovenous graft thrombosis through Fogarty balloon catheter embolectomy between March 2010 and November 2014. The thrombosed graft was incised, and a 4 or 6 French catheter was placed in the venous and arterial limbs of the graft respectively. The Fogarty balloon was passed beyond the thrombus and pulled out after saline was infused into the balloon, and the thrombus was taken out. The procedure was considered unsuccessful if the blood flow was not re-established or if the graft re-thrombosed within hours. Results The treatment was successfully performed in all the patients. Of the 11 patients, 3 received balloon dilation due to stenosis of venous anastomosis, and 2 received angioplasty due to underlying arterial anastomosis lesion. After corresponding measures were taken, the thrombus of all the 11 patients were taken out, and blood flow was recovered. Two to seven days after surgery, low molecular weight heparin was used for anti-coagulation. The blood flow of all arteriovenous grafts reached over 250 mL/min. All the patients were followed up for 4 to 30 months. During the follow-up, the arteriovenous graft remained functional in 5 patients; 4 patients had re-thrombosis on day 2, 3, 25, and 71 after surgery respectively; one changed to undergo peritoneal dialysis due to rupture and infection of the graft, and one patient was transferred to another hospital in another area and was not followed up any longer. The therapy was successful in 81.8% of this group of patients. Conclusion Fogarty balloon catheter embolectomy is effective in restoring patency of thrombosed arteriovenous graft in hemodialysis patients, and more studies are needed.
In recent years, many scholars have explored the clinical application value of a number of peripheral hematology indexes in tumor patients. The significant correlation of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio and platelet to lymphocyte ratio with the prognosis in various tumors has also been confirmed. At present, more peripheral blood indexes have been gradually applied to the evaluation of the prognosis in patients with malignant tumors. Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a type of highly malignant tumor and most patients are in advanced stage at the time of diagnosis. The evaluation value of tumor stage for survival is extremely limited. Therefore, this review intends to explain the relationship between various peripheral hematology indexes and the prognosis of SCLC patients, so as to provide some academic evidence for the clinical assessment of the survival of SCLC patients and formulation of appropriate treatment strategy, which may contribute to the improvement of the prognosis.

Blood pressure variability (BPV) is a novel predictor related to blood pressure level, and a large number of studies based on the hypertension cohort have shown that BPV is an independent predictor of target organ damages and cardiovascular adverse outcomes. Due to the significant hemodynamic changes, BPV in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hemodialysis is higher than the simple hypertension cohort, suggesting that BPV may be of great significance to patients with chronic kidney disease and hemodialysis. In recent years, studies based on CKD and hemodialysis cohort have published in succession whose results revealed that BPV of this cohort is of great prognostic significance for predicting target organ damages and cardiovascular disease risks. This article aims to provide an overview on these research, so as to survey and predict the clinical significance of BPV in CKD and hemodialytic patients.
