| 1 | Inflammatory status in chronic renal failure: The role of homocysteinemia and pro-inflammatory cytokines显示文摘AIM: To evaluate determinants of inflammatory markers in chronic renal failure patients according to the level of glomerular filtration rate. METHODS: One hundred fifty four patients(Age; 44 ± 06 years, male/female; 66/88) with chronic renal failure(CRF) were divided into 6 groups according to the National Kidney Foundation(NKF) classification. They included 28 primary stage renal failure patients(CRF 1), 28 moderate stage renal failure patients(CRF 2),28 severe stage renal failure patients(CRF 3), 18 endstage renal failure patients(CRF 4), 40 hemodialysis(HD) patients, and 12 peritoneal dialysis(PD) patients. Tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-1β(IL-1β), interleukin-6(IL-6) and C-reactive protein(CRP) were analyzed by immunosorbent assay kit(ELISA)(Cayman Chemical's ACETM EIA kit). Immunoassay methods were used for total homocysteine(tH cy)(fluorescence polarization immunoanalysis HPLC, Perkin Emer 200 series), transferrin(MININEPHTM human transferin kit: ZK070.R), ferritin(ADVIA Centaur) and fibrinogen analysis(ACL 200). Differences between groups were performed using SPSS 20.0 and data are expressed as the mean ± SD.RESULTS: Results showed that in comparison with CRF 1 group and other groups, TNF-α and IL-6 levels were respectively more elevated in HD(16.38 ± 5.52 pg/mL vs 0.39 ± 0.03 pg/mL, 11.05 ± 3.59 pg/mL vs 8.20 ± 0.22 pg/mL, P < 0.001) and PD(14.04 ± 3.40 pg/m L vs 0.39 ± 0.03 pg/m L, 10.15 ± 1.66 pg/m L vs 8.20 ± 0.22 pg/m L, P < 0.001). IL-1β levels were increased in HD(9.63 ± 3.50 pg/m L vs 3.24 ± 0.10 pg/mL, P < 0.001) and CRF 4(7.76 ± 0.66 pg/mL vs 3.24 ± 0.10 pg/m L, P < 0.001) patients than in CRF 1 and in the other groups. Plasma t Hcy levels were higher in HD(32.27 ± 12.08 μmol/L) and PD(28.37 ± 4.98 μmol/L) patients compared to the other groups of CRF(P < 0.001). The serum CRP level was significantly increased in HD(18.17 ± 6.38 mg/L) and PD(17.97 ± 4.85 mg/L) patients compared to the other groups of CRF patients(P < 0.001). The plasma fibrinogen level was more elevated in HD(6.86 ± 1.06 g/L) and CRF 4(6.05 ± 0.57 g/L) than in the other groups(P < 0.001). Furthermore; the ferritin level was higher in HD(169.90 ± 62.16 ng/m L) and PD(90.08 ± 22.09 ng/m L) patients compared to the other groups of CRF(P < 0.001). The serum transferrin value was significantly decreased especially in PD(1.78 ± 0.21 g/L) compared to the other groups(P < 0.001). We found a negative correlationbetween glomerular filtration rate(GFR), TNF-α levels(r =-0.75, P < 0.001), and t Hcy levels(r =-0.68, P < 0.001). We observed a positive correlation between GFR and transferrin levels(r = 0.60, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: CRF was associated with elevated inflammatory markers. The inflammation was observed at the severe stage of CRF and increases with progression of renal failure. | Hadja Fatima Tbahriti Djamel Meknassi Rachid Moussaoui Amar Messaoudi Lakhdar Zemour Abbou Kaddous Malika Bouchenak Khedidja Mekki | 2013 | World Journal of Nephrology2013，2，2： | 32 |
| 2 | Bartter and Gitelman syndromes:Spectrum of clinical manifestations caused by different mutations显示文摘Bartter and Gitelman syndromes(BS and GS) are inherited disorders resulting in defects in renal tubularhandling of sodium,potassium and chloride.Previously considered as genotypic and phenotypic heterogeneous diseases,recent evidence suggests that they constitute a spectrum of disease caused by different genetic mutations with the molecular defects of chloride reabsorption originating at different sites of the nephron in each condition.Although they share some characteristic metabolic abnormalities such as hypokalemia,metabolic alkalosis,hyperplasia of the juxtaglomerular apparatus with hyperreninemia,hyperaldosteronism,the clinical and laboratory manifestations may not always allow distinction between them.Diuretics tests,measuring the changes in urinary fractional excretion of chloride from baseline after administration of either hydrochlorothiazide or furosemide show very little change(< 2.3%) in the fractional excretion of chloride from baseline in GS when compared with BS,except when BS is associated with KCNJ1 mutations where a good response to both diuretics exists.The diuretic test is not recommended for infants or young children with suspected BS because of a higher risk of volume depletion in such children.Clinical symptoms and biochemical markers of GS and classic form of BS(type III) may overlap and thus genetic analysis may specify the real cause of symptoms.However,although genetic analysis is available,its use remains limited because of limited availability,large gene dimensions,lack of hot-spot mutations,heavy workup time and costs involved.Furthermore,considerable overlap exists between the different genotypes and phenotypes.Although BS and GS usually have distinct presentations and are associated with specific gene mutations,there remains considerable overlap between their phenotypes and genotypes.Thus,they are better described as a spectrum of clinical manifestations caused by different gene mutations. | Amar Al Shibli Hassib Narchi | 2015 | World Journal of Methodology2015，5，2： | 25 |
| 3 | Additive manufacturing of high-strength CrMnFeCoNi high-entropy alloys-based composites with WC addition显示文摘Laser melting deposition with WC addition has been developed to fabricate high-strength CrMnFeCoNibased high-entropy alloys-based composites.By this technique,a microstructure of compact refined equiaxed grains can be achieved,and the tensile strength can be remarkably improved.The sample with 5 wt%WC addition shows a promising mechanical performance with a tensile strength of 800 MPa and an elongation of 37%.The improvement in mechanical property may be attributed to the formation of Cr(23)C6 reinforcement precipitates,which could promote the heterogeneous nucleation of grains and hinder the propagation of slip bands. | Jinfeng Li Shuo Xiang Hengwei Luan Abdukadir Amar Xue Liu Siyuan Lu Yangyang Zeng Guomin Le Xiaoying Wang Fengsheng Qu Chunli Jiang Guannan Yang | 2019 | Journal of Materials Science & Technology2019，35，11： | 13 |
| 4 | Imaging and interventions in Budd-Chiari syndrome显示文摘Budd-Chiari syndrome(BCS) consists of a group of disorders with obstruction of hepatic venous outflow leading to increased hepatic sinusoidal pressure and portal hypertension.Clinically,two forms of disease(acute and chronic) are recognized.Mostly the patients present with ascites,hepatomegaly,and portal hypertension.In acute disease the liver is enlarged with thrombosed hepatic veins(HV) and ascites,whereas in the chronic form of the disease there may be membranous occlusion of HV and/or the inferior vena cava(IVC),or there may be short or long segment fibrotic constriction of HV or the suprahepatic IVC.Due to advances in radiological interventional techniques and hardware,there have been changes in the management protocol of BCS with surgery being offered to patients not suitable for radiological interventions or having acute liver failure requiring liver transplantation.The present article gives an insight into various imaging findings and interventional techniques employed in the management of BCS. | Amar Mukund Shivanand Gamanagatti | 2011 | World Journal of Radiology2011，3，7： | 11 |
| 5 | Biliary brush cytology:Factors associated with positive yields on biliary brush cytology显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the yield of brushing biliary strictures and the factors associated with a positive result in biliary strictures. METHODS: Data on all consecutive patients (01/02 -10/05) who were identified to have a biliary stricture and who underwent biliary brush cytology were collected. The yield of positive biliary brush cytology was evaluated and compared to results with the gold standard for diagnosis (defi ned as either defi nitive surgical histology or clinical course). Additionally,associated factors of positive results including stricture location,gender,age,mass size,length of stricture,and dilatation prior to brushing cytology were assessed. RESULTS: From 199 patients who had brushing cytology samples (10 patients were excluded due to lack of gold standard diagnosis),77 patients had positive brushing cytology (yield 41%). Variables associated with positive cytology brushing on initial endoscopic retrograde cholangiography were age 1.02 (1.00-1.05),mass size > 1 cm 2.22 (1.01-4.89) and length of stricture > 1 cm 3.49 (1.18-10.2). The sensitivity of biliary brushing was 61%,its specifi city 98%,the positive predictive value reached 99%,and the negative predictive value was 57%. CONCLUSION: Our results revealed a 41% positive yield from brushing cytology. The sensitivity of biliary brushing cytology in our center was 61% and the specif icity was 98%. Predictors of positive yield include older age,mass size > 1 cm,and stricture length of > 1 cm. | Nasim Mahmoudi Robert Enns Jack Amar Jaber AlAli Eric Lam Jennifer Telford | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008，14，4： | 10 |

| 7 | Imaging and radiological interventions in extra-hepatic portal vein obstruction显示文摘Extrahepatic portal vein obstruction(EHPVO) is a primary vascular condition characterized by chronic long standing blockage and cavernous transformation of portal vein with or without additional involvement of intrahepatic branches, splenic or superior mesenteric vein. Patients generally present in childhood with multiple episodes of variceal bleed and EHPVO is the predominant cause of paediatric portal hypertension(PHT) in developing countries. It is a pre-hepatic type of PHT in which liver functions and morphology are preserved till late. Characteristic imaging findings include multiple parabiliary venous collaterals which form to bypass the obstructed portal vein with resultant changes in biliary tree termed portal biliopathy or portal cavernoma cholangiopathy. Ultrasound with Doppler, computed tomography, magnetic resonance cholangiography and magnetic resonance portovenography are non-invasive techniques which can provide a comprehensive analysis of degree and extent of EHPVO, collaterals and bile duct abnormalities. These can also be used to assess in surgical planning as well screening for shunt patency in post-operative patients. The multitude of changes and complications seen in EHPVO can be addressed by various radiological interventional procedures. The myriad of symptoms arising secondary to vascular, biliary, visceral and neurocognitive changes in EHPVO can be managed by various radiological interventions like transjugular intra-hepatic portosystemic shunt, percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage, partial splenic embolization, balloon occluded retrograde obliteration of portosystemic shunt(PSS) and revision of PSS. | Sudheer S Pargewar Saloni N Desai S Rajesh Vaibhav P Singh Ankur Arora Amar Mukund | 2016 | World Journal of Radiology2016，8，6： | 8 |
| 8 | An international program on Silk Road Disaster Risk Reduction--a Belt and Road initiative (2016-2020)显示文摘Belt and Road Initiative(BRI) is a Chinese national strategy which calls for cooperative economic, political and cultural exchange at the global level along the ancient Silk Road. The overwhelming natural hazards located along the belt and road bring great challenges to the success of BRI. In this framework, a 5-year international program was launched to address issues related to hazards assessment and disaster risk reduction(DRR). The first workshop of this program was held in Beijing with international experts from over 15 countries. Risk conditions on Belt and Road Countries(BRCs) have been shared and science and technology advancements on DRR have been disseminated during the workshop. Under this program, six task forces have been setup to carry out collaborative research works and three prioritized study areas have been established. This workshop announced the launching of this program which involved partners from different countries including Pakistan, Nepal, Russia, Italy, United Kingdom, Sri Lanka and Tajikistan. The program adopted the objectives of Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030 and United Nation Sustainable Development Goals 2030 and was implemented to assess disaster risk in BRCs and to propose suitable measures for disaster control which can be appropriate both for an individual country and for specific sites. This paper deals with the outcomes of the workshop and points out opportunities for the near future international cooperation on this matter. | LEI Yu CUI Peng Amar Deep REGMI Virginia MURRAY Alessandro PASUTO Giacomo TITTI Muhammad SHAFIQUE Tilak PRIYADARSHANA D.G. | 2018 | Journal of Mountain Science2018，15，7： | 8 |
| 9 | Endoscopic ultrasound staging for early esophageal cancer: Are we denying patients neoadjuvant chemo-radiation?显示文摘AIM To evaluate the accuracy of endoscopic ultrasound(EUS) in early esophageal cancer(EC) performed in a highvolume tertiary cancer center. METHODS A retrospective review of patients undergoing esophagectomy was performed and patients with c T1 N0 and c T2 N0 esophageal cancer by EUS were evaluated. Patient demographics, tumor characteristics, and treatment were reviewed. EUS staging was compared to surgical pathology to determine accuracy of EUS. Descriptive statistics was used to describe the cohort. Student's t test and Fisher's exact test or χ~2 test was used to compare variables. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine if clinical variables such as tumor location and tumor histology were associated with EUS accuracy.RESULTS Between 2000 and 2015, 139 patients with clinical stage Ⅰ or Ⅱ?A esophageal cancer undergoing esophagectomy were identified. There were 25(18%) female and 114(82%) male patients. The tumor location included the middle third of the esophagus in 11(8%) and lower third and gastroesophageal junction in 128(92%) patients. Ninety-three percent of patients had adenocarcinoma. Preoperative EUS matched the final surgical pathology in 73/139 patients for a concordance rate of 53%. Twenty-nine patients(21%) were under-staged by EUS; of those, 19(14%) had unrecognized nodal disease. Positron emission tomography(PET) was used in addition to EUS for clinical staging in 62/139 patients. Occult nodal disease was only found in 4 of 62 patients(6%) in whom both EUS and PET were negative for nodal involvement. CONCLUSION EUS is less accurate in early EC and endoscopic mucosal resection might be useful in certain settings. The addition of PET to EUS improves staging accuracy. | Carrie Luu Marisa Amaral Jason Klapman Cynthia Harris Khaldoun Almhanna Sarah Hoffe Jessica Frakes Jose M Pimiento Jacques P Fontaine | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017，23，46： | 8 |
| 10 | Landslide susceptibility assessment of the region affected by the 25 April 2015 Gorkha earthquake of Nepal显示文摘Nepal was hit by a 7.8 magnitude earthquake on 25^(th) April,2015.The main shock and many large aftershocks generated a large number of coseismic landslips in central Nepal.We have developed a landslide susceptibility map of the affected region based on the coseismic landslides collected from remotely sensed data and fieldwork,using bivariate statistical model with different landslide causative factors.From the investigation,it is observed that most of the coseismic landslides are independent of previous landslides.Out of 3,716 mapped landslides,we used 80% of them to develop a susceptibility map and the remaining 20% were taken for validating the model.A total of 11 different landslide-influencing parameters were considered.These include slope gradient,slope aspect,plan curvature,elevation,relative relief,Peak Ground Acceleration(PGA),distance from epicenters of the mainshock and major aftershocks,lithology,distance of the landslide from the fault,fold,and drainage line.The success rate of 87.66% and the prediction rate of86.87% indicate that the model is in good agreement between the developed susceptibility map and theexisting landslides data.PGA,lithology,slope angle and elevation have played a major role in triggering the coseismic mass movements.This susceptibility map can be used for relocating the people in the affected regions as well as for future land development. | Amar Deep Regmi Megh Raj Dhital ZHANG Jian-qiang SU Li-jun CHEN Xiao-qing | 2016 | Journal of Mountain Science2016，13，11： | 7 |
| 11 | Smear positive pulmonary tuberculosis among diabetic patients at the Dessie referral hospital, Northeast Ethiopia显示文摘Background:Tuberculosis(TB)is an infectious disease which is still a major cause of morbidity and mortality throughout the world.People with diabetes mellitus(DM)have a three times higher risk of developing active TB than people without diabetes.However,there is not enough credible information on the burden of pulmonary tuberculosis(PTB)among DM patients in Ethiopia,in general,and in the city of Dessie,in particular.Therefore,this study aims to determine the prevalence and associated risk factors of smear positive PTB among diabetic patients at a referral hospital in Dessie.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted from February 2012 to April 2012.Patient demographic characteristics were collected using a pre-tested standard questionnaire format.Spot-morning-spot sputum specimens were collected from the study participants and examined for acid-fast bacilli using direct microscopy by the Ziehl-Neelsen staining technique.Data was entered and analyzed using the SPSS version 16 statistical software and p-value<0.05 was considered as statistically significant.Results:Out of 225 TB suspected diabetic patients,52%were males and 48%were females.Their ages ranged from 12 to 82 years,with a mean age of 47.2 years.Urban residence(AOR:5.5;95%CI:1.07-28.20),history of TB(AOR:13.4;95%CI:2.74-65.73),contact with TB patients in the family(AOR:9.4;95%CI:1.822-48.50),and long duration of DM(AOR:8.89;95%CI:1.88-58.12)were independently associated with the development of active TB in people living with DM.Conclusions:The prevalence of smear positive PTB was 6.2%in TB suspected diabetic patients,which is higher compared with the general population(0.39%).Patients with a previous history of contact with TB patients,as well as those who had prolonged diabetes,were more prone to have PTB.Therefore,screening of diabetic patients for PTB infection during follow-up is necessary. | Hiwot Amare Aschalew Gelaw Belay Anagaw Baye Gelaw | 2013 | Infectious Diseases of Poverty2013，2，1： | 7 |
| 12 | 中、低收入国家卫生智囊团的实践影响政策变化显示文摘近年来,中、低收入国家独立卫生政策研究机构的数量与日俱增,原因在于政府研究能力有限和民主化进程中的压力。本研究的目标是:(1)调查中﹑低收入国家中卫生政策研究机构对卫生政策的议程设置﹑制定﹑执行、监管和评估所作的贡献;(2)评估包括组织形式和结构在内的哪些因素支持中﹑低收入国家的卫生政策研究机构对卫生政策发挥积极作用。本研究在孟加拉﹑加纳﹑印度﹑南非﹑乌干达和越南选取了6家卫生政策研究机构开展案例研究,研究对象包括两个非政府组织、两所大学和两个政府办政策研究机构。案例研究通过文献查阅、财务信息分析、对工作人员和其他利益相关人员进行半结构式访谈,以及对结论草案进行多次反馈等方式开展。其中有些机构对他们各自国家的政策发展作出了巨大贡献。这些机构都积极建言献策,多数从事与政策相关的研究,而开展政治对话﹑系统评价或委托性研究的机构则相对较少。这些机构所开展的工作大多以政府或出资人的需求为导向,多数机构的主要成果一般为研究报告,经常与面向政府官员的口头汇报相结合。在支持对政策的有效参与方面,有几个关键因素,其中包括支持性的政策环境﹑管理和财务的相对独立性,以及与决策者建立可增进信任和影响的密切关系。当研究机构与政府之间的正式关系未处在重要位置时,政府内部单位则面临相当大的困难。 | Sara Bennett Adrijana Corluka Jane Doherty Viroj Tangcharoensathlen Walaiporn Patcharanarumol Amar Jesani Joseph Kyabaggu Grace Namaganda A M Zakir Hussain Ama de-Graft Aikins | 2012 | 中国卫生政策研究2012，5，8： | 6 |
| 13 | Embolization of splenorenal shunt associated to portal vein thrombosis and hepatic encephalopathy显示文摘Hepatic encephalopathy(HE)is a cognitive disturbance characterized by neuropsychiatric alterations.It occurs in acute and chronic hepatic disease and also in patients with portosystemic shunts.The presence of these portosystemic shunts allows the passage of nitrogenous substances from the intestines through systemic veins without liver depuration.Therefore,the embolization of these shunts has been performed tocontrol HE manifestations,but the presence of portal vein thrombosis is considered a contraindication.In this presentation we show a cirrhotic patient with severe HE and portal vein thrombosis who was submitted to embolization of a large portosystemic shunt.Case report:a 57 years-old cirrhotic patient who had been hospitalized many times for persistent HE and hepatic coma,even without precipitant factors.She had a wide portosystemic shunt and also portal vein thrombosis.The abdominal angiography confirmed the splenorenal shunt and showed other shunts.The larger shunt was embolized through placement of microcoils,and the patient had no recurrence of overt HE.There was a little increase of esophageal and gastric varices,but no endoscopic treatment was needed.Since portosystemic shunts are frequent causes of recurrent HE in cirrhotic patients,portal vein thrombosis should be considered a relative contraindication to perform a shunt embolization.However,in particular cases with many shunts and severe HE,we found that one of these shunts can be safely embolized and this procedure can be sufficient to obtain a good HE recovery.In conclusion,we reported a case of persistent HE due to a wide portosystemic shunt associated with portal vein thrombosis.As the patient had other shunts,she was successfully treated by embolization of the larger shunt. | Letícia de Campos Franzoni Fábio Cardoso de Carvalho Rafael Gomes de Almeida Garzon Fábio da Silva Yamashiro Laís Augusti Lívia Alves Amaral Santos Mariana de Souza Dorna Júlio Pinheiro Baima Talles Bazeia Lima Carlos Antonio Caramori Giovanni Faria Silva Fernando Gomes Romeiro | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014，20，42： | 6 |
| 14 | Impaired T-cell differentiation in diabetic foot ulceration显示文摘Foot ulceration is one of the most debilitating complications associated with diabetes,but its cause remains poorly understood.Several studies have been undertaken to understand healing kinetics or find possible therapies to enhance healing.However,few studies have been directed at understanding the immunological alterations that could influence wound healing in diabetes.In this study,we analysed the T-cell receptor(TCR)repertoire diversity in TCR-αβ^(+)T cells.We also analysed the distribution and phenotype of T cells obtained from the peripheral blood of healthy controls and diabetic individuals with or without foot ulcers.Our results showed that diabetic individuals,especially those with foot ulcers,have a significantly lower naive T-cell number and a poorer TCR-Vβrepertoire diversity.We also showed that the reduced TCR-Vβrepertoire diversity in diabetic individuals was mainly owing to the accumulation of effector T cells,the major source of tumour necrosis factor-αproduction,which was even more pronounced in patients with acute foot ulceration.Moreover,the expression of several inflammatory chemokine receptors was significantly reduced in diabetic patients.In conclusion,effector T-cell accumulation and TCR repertoire diversity reduction appear to precede the development of foot ulcers.This finding may open new immunological therapeutic possibilities and provide a new prognostic tool in diabetic wound care. | João Moura João Rodrigues Marta Gonçalves Cláudia Amaral Margarida Lima Eugénia Carvalho | 2017 | Cellular & Molecular Immunology2017，14，9： | 6 |
| 15 | Landslide Susceptibility Mapping along Bhalubang–Shiwapur Area of Mid-Western Nepal Using Frequency Ratio and Conditional Probability Models显示文摘Roads constructed in fragile Siwaliks are prone to large number of instabilities. Bhalubang–Shiwapur section of Mahendra Highway lying in Western Nepal is one of them. To understand the landslide causative factor and to predict future occurrence of the landslides, landslide susceptibility mapping(LSM) of this region was carried out using frequency ratio(FR) and weights-of-evidence(W of E) models. These models are easy to apply and give good results. For this, landslide inventory map of the area was prepared based on the aerial photo interpretation, from previously published/unpublished reposts, and detailed field survey using GPS. About 332 landslides were identified and mapped, among which 226(70%) were randomly selected for model training and the remaining 106(30%) were used for validation purpose. A spatial database was constructed from topographic, geological, and land cover maps. The reclassified maps based on the weight values of frequency ratio and weights-of-evidence were applied to get final susceptibility maps. The resultant landslide susceptibility maps were verified andcompared with the training data, as well as with the validation data. From the analysis, it is seen that both the models were equally capable of predicting landslide susceptibility of the region(W of E model(success rate = 83.39%, prediction rate = 79.59%); FR model(success rate = 83.31%, prediction rate = 78.58%)). In addition, it was observed that the distance from highway and lithology, followed by distance from drainage, slope curvature, and slope gradient played major role in the formation of landsides. The landslide susceptibility maps thus produced can serve as basic tools for planners and engineers to carry out further development works in this landslide prone area. | Amar Deep REGMI Kohki YOSHIDA Hamid Reza POURGHASEMI Megh Raj DHITAL Biswajeet PRADHAN | 2014 | Journal of Mountain Science2014，11，5： | 5 |
| 16 | CT patterns of nodal disease in pediatric chest tuberculosis显示文摘AIM:To highlight various patterns of nodal involvement and post treatment changes in pediatric chest tuberculosis based on contrast enhanced computed tomography(CECT) scans of chest.METHODS:This was a retrospective study consisting of 91 patients aged less than 17 years,who attended Paediatrics OPD of All India Institute of Medical Sciences with clinically diagnosed tuberculosis or with chest radiographs suggestive of chest tuberculosis.These patients had an initial chest radiograph as well as CECT of the chest and follow up imaging after 6 mo,and in some cases 9 mo,of completion of anti-tubercular treatment(ATT).CECT of these patients was reviewed for the location and extent of nodal involvement along with determination of site,size,enhancement pattern and calcification.RESULTS:Enlargement of mediastinal or hilar lymph nodes was found in 88/91 patients(96.7%),with the most common locations being paratracheal(84.1%),and subcarinal(76.1%).The most common pattern of enhancement was found to be inhomogenous.The nodes were conglomerate in 56.8% and discrete in 43.2%.In addition,perinodal fat was obscured in 84.1% of patients.In the post-treatment scan,there was 87.4% reduction in the size of the nodes.All nodes post-treatment were discrete and homogenous with perinodal fat present.Calcification was found both pre-and post-treatment,but there was an increase in incidence after treatment(41.7%).There was hence a reduction in size,change in enhancement pattern,and appearance of perinodal fat with treatment.CONCLUSION:Tubercular nodes have varied appearance and enhancement pattern.Conglomeration and obscuration of perinodal fat suggest activity.In residual nodes decision to continue ATT requires clinical correlation. | Amar Mukund Rashmi Khurana Ashu S Bhalla Arun K Gupta Sushil K Kabra | 2011 | World Journal of Radiology2011，3，1： | 5 |
| 17 | 在在一个第三级的肝中心的 hepatocellular 癌的对比超声: 第一印度经验显示文摘 AIM: To assess the role of contrast enhanced ultrasonography in evaluation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at the first Indian tertiary liver center. METHODS: Retrospective analysis of contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) examinations over 24 mo for diagnosis, surveillance, characterization and follow up of 50 patients in the context of HCC was performed. The source and indication of referrals, change in referral rate, accuracy and usefulness of CEUS in a tertiary liver center equipped with a 64 slice dual energy computer tomography (CT) and 3 tesla magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were studied. Sonovue (BR1, Bracco, Italy, a second generation contrast agent) was used for contrast US studies. Contrast enhanced CT/MRI or both were performed in all patients. The findings were taken as a baseline reference and correlation was done with respect to contrast US. Contrast enhanced MRI was performed using hepatocyte specific gadobenate dimeglumine (Gd-BOPTA). Iomeron (400 mg; w/v) was used for dynamic CT examinations. RESULTS: About 20 (40%) of the examinations were referred from clinicians for characterization of a mass from previous imaging. About 15 (30%) were performed for surveillance in chronic liver disease; 5 (10%) examinations were performed for monitoring lesions after radiofrequency ablation (RFA); 3 (6%) were post trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE) assessments and 3 (6%) were patients with h/o iodinated contrast allergy. About 2(4%) were performed on hemodynamically unstable patients in the intensive care with raised alpha fetoprotein and 2(4%) patients were claustrophobic. The number of patients referred from clinicians steadily increased from 12 in the first 12 mo of the study to 38 in the last 12 mo. CEUS was able to diagnose 88% of positive cases of HCC as per reference standards. In the surveillance group, specificity was 53.3% vs 100% by CT/MRI. Post RFA and TACE specificity of lesion characterization by CEUS was 100% in single/large mass assessment, similar to CT/MRI. For non HCC lesions such as regenerative and dysplastic nodules, the specificity was 50% vs 90% by CT/MRI. The positive role of CEUS in imaging spectrum of HCC included a provisional urgent diagnosis of an incidentally detected mass. It further led to a decrease in time for further management. A confident diagnosis on CEUS was possible in cases of characterization of an indeterminate mass, in situations where the patient was unfit for CT/MRI, was allergic to iodinated contrast or had claustrophobia, etc.CEUS was also cost effective, radiation free and an easy modality for monitoring post RFA or TACE lesions.

| 18 | Endovascular management in abdominal visceral arterial aneurysms:A pictorial essay显示文摘Visceral artery aneurysms(VAAs) include aneurysms of the splanchnic circulation and those of the renal artery.Their diagnosis is clinically important because of the associated high mortality and potential complications.Splenic,superior mesenteric,gastroduodenal,hepatic and renal arteries are some of the common arteries affected by VAAs.Though surgical resection and anastomosis still remains the treatment of choice in some of the cases,especially cases involving the proximal arteries,increasingly endovascular treatment is being used for more distal vessels.We present a pictorial review of various intra-abdominal VAAs and their endovascular management. | Manisha Jana Shivanand Gamanagatti Amar Mukund Sujoy Paul Pankaj Gupta Pramod Garg Tushar K Chattopadhyay Peush Sahni | 2011 | World Journal of Radiology2011，3，7： | 5 |
| 19 | Bottom hole pressure estimation using hybridization neural networks and grey wolves optimization显示文摘An effective design and optimum production strategies of a well depend on the accurate prediction of its bottom hole pressure(BHP)which may be calculated or determined by several methods.However,it is not practical technically or economically to apply for a well test or to deploy a permanent pressure gauge in the bottom hole to predict the BHP.Consequently,several correlations and mechanistic models based on the knownsurfacemeasurementshave beendeveloped.Unfortunately,all these tools(correlations&mechanistic models)are limited to some conditions and intervals of application.Therefore,establish a global model that ensures a large coverage of conditions with a reduced cost and high accuracy becomes a necessity.In this study,we propose new models for estimating bottom hole pressure of vertical wells with multiphase flow.First,Artificial Neural Network(ANN)based on back propagation training(BP-ANN)with 12 neurons in its hidden layer is established using trial and error.The next methods correspond to optimized or evolved neural networks(optimize the weights and thresholds of the neural networks)with Grey Wolves Optimization(GWO),and then its accuracy to reach the global optima is compared with 2 other naturally inspired algorithms which are the most used in the optimization field:Genetic Algorithm(GA)and Particle Swarms Optimization(PSO).The models were developed and tested using 100 field data collected from Algerian fields and covering a wide range of variables.The obtained results demonstrate the superiority of the hybridization ANN-GWO compared with the 2 other hybridizations or with the BP learning alone.Furthermore,the evolved neural networks with these global optimization algorithms are strongly shown to be highly effective to improve the performance of the neural networks to estimate flowing BHP over existing approaches and correlations. | Menad Nait Amar Nourddine Zeraibi Kheireddine Redouane | 2018 | Petroleum2018，4，4： | 4 |
| 20 | Effect of glycine addition on the in-vitro corrosion behavior of AZ31 magnesium alloy in Hank’s solution显示文摘This study reports on the effect of the addition of Glycine to Hank’s solution on the in-vitro corrosion behavior of AZ31 magnesium(Mg)alloy at 37℃and a pH of 7.4 studied by using potentiodynamic polarization(PDP),hydrogen collecting techniques and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)in combination with surface characterization techniques such as optical microscopy(OM),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS),X-ray diffraction(XRD)and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis(XPS).The results reveal that adsorption of glycine initially subdues the dissolution of AZ31 Mg alloy while in long run it enhances the dissolution of the alloy due to the commencement of the chelation effect of glycine with Ca^(2+) released from hydroxyapatite.The chelation of glycine with Ca^(2+) induces the formation of cracks in the surface film which further promotes the dissolution of AZ31 Mg alloy thereby forming a porous corrosion products layer on the surface of the alloy.As a result,both the continuous dissolution of AZ31 magnesium alloy and the hydrogen evolution rate(HER)are enhanced with increasing the immersion time in Hank’s solution. | Durga Bhakta Pokharel Liping Wu Junhua Dong Amar Prasad Yadav Dhruba Babu Subedi Madhusudan Dhakal Lin Zha Xin Mu Aniefiok Joseph Umoh Wei Ke | 2021 | Journal of Materials Science & Technology2021，，22： | 4 |
