Abstract

We aimed to explore whether large airway remodeling and small airway structural changes exist in subjects with small airway asthma phenotype and to evaluate the relationships between quantitative high-resolution computed tomography (qHRCT) parameters and lung function. We enrolled 15 subjects with small airway asthma phenotype and 18 healthy controls. The two groups were matched by age, sex and body square area (BSA) with propensity score matching (PSM). Pulmonary function and qHRCT parameters [wall thickness (WT), wall area (WA), lumen area (LA), wall area percentage (WA%) of the 4th–6th generations in the right upper lobe apical segmental bronchus (RB1), adjusted by BSA, WT/BSA, WA/BSA, and LA/BSA, relative volume change −860 HU to −950 HU (RVC−860 to −950) and the expiration to inspiration ratio of mean lung density (MLDE/I)) were compared between the groups. Correlation analysis was employed to assess the relationship between qHRCT parameters and pulmonary function. The small airway asthma phenotype had significantly higher WA%, RVC−860 to −950 and MLDE/I and lower LA/BSA than the healthy control. Additionally, we found moderate to strong correlations between impulse oscillation (IOS) indices and WA6% and WT6/BSA. No significant correlation was found between bronchial parameters and air trapping parameters (p > 0.05). Combining physiological tests with imaging approaches can lead to better evaluation of small airway disfunction (SAD) in asthmatic patients. Additionally, despite nonexistent airflow obstruction in patients with small airway asthma phenotype, large airway remodeling and small airway structural changes may appear simultaneously in the early stage of disease.

Abstract

Introduction: Wake up stroke starts in sleep and is a more common form of ischemic stroke. At present, it is still controversial whether wake up stroke can be treated with thrombolytic therapy. Therefore, this study will combine imaging techniques to assess the onset time of wake up stroke patients, and to analyze the imaging characteristics of wake up stroke patients and patients suitable for thrombolytic therapy within the time window. Methods/design: This study will be a single-blinded, randomized controlled trial with 2 parallel groups. It will be conducted at North China University of science and technology affiliated hospital. Discussion: There is no consistent conclusion about the pathogenesis of wake up stroke. Wake up stroke is more likely to manifest as small vessel disease. The incidence of wake up stroke patients is relatively high, and the effectiveness and safety of intravenous thrombolysis under the guidance of multimode imaging therapy in wake up stroke need to be further explored by prospective, large-scale studies.

31. Plasmapause Equatorial Shape Determination via the Minimum L Algorithm: Description and Evaluation

Author

Subjects
Geophysics
Abstract

Algorithms for determination of the equatorial shape of the plasmapause using NASA IMAGE Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) imagery are considered. Focus is on the Minimum L Algorithm, which operates without human intervention given a single EUV image in which the plasmasphere silhouette boundary has been identified. For each line of sight (LOS) through pixels on the plasmasphere silhouette boundary, the algorithm first finds all magnetic dipole field lines intersected by the LOS and then returns as the plasmasphere's boundary the field line with the minimum L value. An analysis of the reasonableness, applicability, and accuracy of the algorithm is presented, and it is contrasted with the well-known Edge Algorithm [Roelof and Skinner, 2000]. A revised version of the Edge Algorithm is also introduced. Application of all three algorithms to real EUV imagery is demonstrated.

32. Synthesis of 3D Model of a Magnetic Field-Influenced Body from a Single Image

Subjects
Physics (General)
Abstract

A method for recovery of a 3D model of a cloud-like structure that is in motion and deforming but approximately governed by magnetic field properties is described. The method allows recovery of the model from a single intensity image in which the structure's silhouette can be observed. The method exploits envelope theory and a magnetic field model. Given one intensity image and the segmented silhouette in the image, the method proceeds without human intervention to produce the 3D model. In addition to allowing 3D model synthesis, the method's capability to yield a very compact description offers further utility. Application of the method to several real-world images is demonstrated.

Abstract

Rhinocerebral mucomycosis (RCM) as an emerging opportunistic, angioinvasive, and devastating fungi infection with high mortality is difficult to be diagnosed early because of the lack of specific clinical features or manifestations. Garcin syndrome is more often caused by skull base and rhinopharyngeal tumors or metastases, and basal meningitis. We reported that an aged diabetic man, involved nearly all cranial nerves (Garcin syndrome), who was at first suspected to be suffered from tuberculous meningitis, ultimately developed typically progressing RCM. Diagnosis was made to find the presence of mucormycosis in the infected tissue by biopsy.

Abstract

The pick-up mechanism has been included in the exciton model for the light composite particle emissions. Based on the cluster phase space integration method the formation probabilities of α,d, t,3He are obtained. The calculation results of (n, t) cross sections indicate that this theoretical method can reproduce the experimental data nicely. For triton emissions in pre-equilibrium reaction processes, the semi-direct reactions are the dominant terms which are just omitted in the previous model calculation.

Abstract

Background: This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy of carotid endarterectomy (CE) compared with carotid angioplasty (CA) in preventing stroke. Whether the use of CE is more efficient in preventing stroke than CA is a matter of debate.Methods: Data were gathered from randomized controlled trials to evaluate the effect of CE compared with CA on the risk of stroke. Electronic searches in PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were performed to identify studies till November 2014. Only randomized controlled trials performed on patients who received either CE or CA for stroke prevention were included.Results: Nine relevant trials (n = 7163) that met the inclusion criteria were identified. In a pooled analysis, CE resulted in 35 % reduction in relative risk (RR) for short-term stroke [RR, 0.65; 95 % confidence interval (CI): 0.47-0.89; P = 0.007)] and 22 % reduction in RR for long-term stroke (RR, 0.78; 95 % CI: 0.66-0.93; P = 0.006) relative to CA. However, CE also increased the risk of 30-day myocardial infarction by 114 % compared with CA (RR, 2.14; 95 % CI: 1.30-3.53; P = 0.003). Sensitivity analyses suggested that CE might influence the risk of 30-day major vascular events and 1-year major vascular events compared with CA.Conclusions: CE could reduce the risk of stroke (whether short term or long term), but resulted in a relative increase in the risk of myocardial infarction. This study might guide appropriate judgments about treatment approach. It also provided evidence to justify general guidelines for patients with carotid artery stenosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Radiotherapy is a common strategy in treating lung cancer. Accumulating evidence suggested that radiotherapy has the potential to promote the metastasis and invasion of carcinoma cells. In this study, we aimed to testify the role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and C-C chemokine receptor-7 (CCR-7) in the metastasis of human adenocarcinoma A549 cells in vivoand in vitro. Nude mice were injected with A549 cells irradiated by 0, 2 and 4 Gy X-rays, respectively. Quantitative detections of VEGF-A/C and CCR-7 mRNA from lung sample were performed by real-time RT-PCR. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) transfection technology was further used to testify the role of the genes in the metastasis of A549 cells. VEGF and CCR-7 mRNA could only be detected 10 weeks post injection in vivowhen visible tumor foci scattered in lung. In addition, VEGF-A/C mRNA expressed significantly higher in mice injected with A549 cells irradiated by 2 and 4 X-rays than those with 0 Gy X-rays irradiation. On the other hand, A549 cells with or without X-rays irradiation transfected with VEGF siRAN and CCR-7 siRNA showed a dramatic decrease of invasiveness compared to normal A549 cells with or without irradiation. The migration indexes were −0.7, −0.48, −0.34 and −0.32 for A549 cells with CCR-7 siRNA, VEGF siRNA, X-rays combined CCR-7 siRNA and X-rays combined VEGF-siRNA respectively. These results demonstrated that X-rays could promote the metastasis of A549 cells, and VEGF-A/C and CCR-7 mRNA were closely related to the metastasis of A549 cells in vivoand in vitro.
