Ultrasound ablation is a method of treating cancer and other diseases which has received a lot of attention. The paper put forward an internal ultrasound therapy method based on Chirp-coded excitation which was studied in order to expand the therapeutic area and to reduce treatment duration. The self-made experimental platform and driving system were used in phantom experiments. The results of polyacrylamide (PAA) phantom experiments showed that, compared with constant-frequency excitation, Chirp-coded excitation can expand the effective treatment area of single ablation. On the basis of ensuring the range of ablation, the overall treatment duration can be effectively reduced.

Photocuring is an effective way to achieve solvent-free and high-performance acrylate pressure-sensitive adhesives. With ethynyl cyclohexyl acrylate (ECA) as the alkyne functional monomer and using its photopolymerization characteristics, solvent-free and gel-free syrup and their final acrylate pressure-sensitive adhesive are prepared in two steps by photocuring the syrup prepared by bulk photopolymerization. With the increase of ECA addition (0~3 mol%), the molecular weights of the polymers containing the retained acetylene groups in the precursors decreased from 55.59×10⁴ Da to 14.12×10⁴ Da and molecular weight distribution slightly increased. Comparative studies have shown that acetylene groups improve the dynamic and static shear properties of the photocured pressure-sensitive adhesives, but have no or minimal effect on the peeling and tack forces. The acetylene group participates in photocuring, which increases the cohesion strength of the pressure-sensitive adhesive and will be a new means for pressure-sensitive adhesives modification.

Ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction (UTMD) technology is a novel physical property-targeted gene delivery system, which is a hot research field in the treatment of myocardial infarction. This review introduced the structure, function and development of microbubbles, and discussed the application principle of UTMD technology and the application status of UTMD technology in myocardial infarction. The possible mechanisms of UTMD in the treatment of myocardial infarction were analyzed from the perspectives of promoting angiogenesis, promoting homing of transplanted cells, promoting the regeneration of infarcted myocardium, reducing myocardial cell apoptosis, inhibiting oxidative stress and improving myocardial microenvironment. On this basis, the advantages and disadvantages of UTMD technology were discussed. This review will summarize the research status of UTMD technology, so as to provide theoretical support for the later research and development of this technology.

Measured the shear wave velocity (SWV) in this paper by virtual touch tissue quantification (VTQ), and then compared the value of SWV, X-ray and color Doppler ultrasound in the diagnosis of breast cancer. 85 patients with breast lesions with breast masses were selected as the research objects. All patients received X-ray, ordinary color Doppler ultrasound, VTQ and surgical pathological biopsy. Taking the pathological results as the gold standard, and the patients with breast cancer were set as the breast cancer group (52 cases), and the patients with benign breast masses were set as the benign group (33 cases). Compared the blood flow resistance index (RI), SWV value and blood flow display rate of the two groups, and analyzed the efficacy of different imaging methods in the diagnosis of breast cancer. The RI, SWV and blood flow display rates in the breast cancer group were higher than those in the benign group (P<0.05). The imaging diagnosis results showed that the sensitivity and specificity of X-ray in the diagnosis of breast cancer were 32.69% and 45.45%, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of ordinary color Doppler ultrasound in the diagnosis of breast cancer were 69.23% and 69.70%, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of SWV in the diagnosis of breast cancer were 82.69% and 75.76%, respectively. The AUC of breast cancer diagnosed by SWV, conventional color ultrasound and X-ray were 0.801, 0.687 and 0.453, respectively. Compared with X-ray, common color ultrasound and other imaging methods, the SWV has the highest efficiency in diagnosing breast cancer, and SWV value can evaluate the hardness of lesions, making up for the deficiency of common ultrasound.

This paper investigated the changes of computer-assisted analysis of virtual organs (VOCAL) parameters and homocysteine (Hcy) levels in patients with gestational hypertension (PIH). 121 patients with gestational hypertension (PIH) were selected as the study group, and another 92 normal pregnant women in the same period were included as the control group. Both the two groups underwent VOCAL examination, and detected the Hcy expression by fully automated biochemical analyzer. The results showed that vascularity index(VI),flow index(FI), and vascularization flow index(VFI)in the study group were all lower than those in the control group, serum Hcy levels were higher than in the control group. FI, VI, VFI were negatively correlated with Hcy, and the AUC of combined diagnosis of PIH with FI, VI, VFI, and Hcy was better than that of single diagnosis (P<0.05). The incidence of adverse pregnancy outcome was higher in patients with low expression of VOCAL parameters than in those with high expression. The incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes was lower in patients with high expression of Hcy than in patients with low expression, and both VOCAL parameters and Hcy were both factors influencing adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with PIH (P<0.05). It can be seen that patients with PIH have abnormal expression of VOCAL parameters and Hcy, which has guiding significance for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is among the top three tumors in the world. At present, screening CRC in CT images still needs to be done manually by radiologists, which is a time-consuming and laborious repetitive work. This paper investigated a method which extracted 3D features on abdominal CT images based on 3D convolutional network, then estimated whether there were CRC lesions through CT images. This paper collected a colorectal cancer CT image dataset with 348 samples and designed three 3D convolution networks with different structures, and performed a normal/abnormal binary classification experiments on the acquired abdominal CT images. The best performance model in this paper was a 3D convolution networks with three improved residual modules. The average accuracy of normal/abnormal binary classification experiment was 96.2%, and the AUC was 0.989, which was 2.2% and 2.9% higher than the baseline model. The experiment results showed that the 3D convolutional networks with have outstanding performance in the CRC normal/abnormal classification task, it also has good generalization ability and only under CT-level weak-labeled data, it is helpful to clinical application.

This paper investigated the predictive value of conventional ultrasound indices combined with HD live technique in monochorionic (MC) twin pregnancy. Both conventional ultrasound examinations were performed in early pregnancy to obtain fetal conventional ultrasound indices[nuchal translucency layer (NT) thickness, crown-rump length (CRL)], and HD live technique to obtain ductus venosus (DV) spectral abnormalities and fetal cord abnormalities. The results showed that among 208 cases (416 fetuses) MC twin pregnancies, the fetal abnormality rate was 33.67% in MC double amniotic sac twin pregnancies and 58.33% in MC single amniotic sac twin pregnancies. The fetal abnormal group had higher inter-twin NT difference, CRL difference, DV spectrum abnormality rate and fetal umbilical cord abnormality rate in early pregnancy than the fetal normal group (P<0.05). In the early pregnancy the differences of NT, CRL, DV spectrum abnormalities and fetal umbilical cord abnormalities between twins were significantly associated with the occurrence of fetal abnormalities in MC twin pregnancy (P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of NT differences, CRL differences, DV spectrum abnormalities and fetal umbilical cord abnormalities between twins in early pregnancy predicted the occurrence of fetal abnormalities in MC twin pregnancy alone were greater than 0.7, and the combined predicted AUC was the largest (0.922). The anatomical relationship of the HD live technique for examining MC twin pregnancies showed stereoscopic visualization, and it has good application value for predicting fetal anomalies in MC twin pregnancies when combined with conventional ultrasound indices.

This paper investigated the value of prenatal echocardiography in guiding the delivery mode of fetuses with restricted flow in the simple foramen ovale. 105 fetuses with restricted flow through the foramen ovale alone were selected and followed up until delivery. They were divided into early-onset group (n=30, gestational week <37 weeks) and late-onset group (n=75, gestational week ≥ 37 weeks) according to the gestational week of delivery. Compared the velocity of flow through the foramen ovale, size of the foramen ovale valve, inversion or disappearance of the A wave of the venous duct, abnormal morphology of the arterial duct, cardiothoracic ratio, and right atrium/left atrium (RA/LA), right ventricle/left ventricle (RV/LV), and degree of tricuspid regurgitation. The results showed that the degree of cardiothoracic ratio, RA/LA, RV/LV, and tricuspid regurgitation were higher in the early-onset group than in the late-onset group (P<0.05). The cardiothoracic ratio, RA/LA, RV/LV, and severe tricuspid regurgitation were all associated with early cesarean delivery (P<0.05). The area under the curve of the working characteristics of subjects with RA/LA, RV/LV, cardiothoracic ratio, and severe tricuspid regurgitation predicting early cesarean delivery was 0.764, 0.757, 0.792, and 0.550, respectively, and the AUC for the combination of these upper parameters to predict early cesarean delivery was 0.929. It is evident that the combination of prenatal echocardiography to detect RA/LA, RV/LV, cardiothoracic ratio, and severe tricuspid regurgitation has important value in guiding the mode of delivery.

This study explored the diagnostic value of Tissue Doppler Imaging (TDI) combined with serum microRNA-34a (miR-34a) in the diagnosis of children congenital heart disease (CHD) complicated with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). According to the occurrence of PAH, all 112 CHD children were divided into CHD group and CHD+PAH group and all of them underwent TDI examination. The TDI-Tei and TDI-Z of the two groups were measured respectively, and the serum miR-34a level of the children was detected by qRT-PCR test. The results showed that the TDI-Tei of the CHD group was significantly lower than that of the CHD+PAH group(P<0.001), the TDI-Z of the CHD group was significantly higher than that of the CHD+PAH group(P<0.001), the relative expression of serum miR-34a in CHD group was significantly lower than that in CHD+PAH group(P<0.001). Correlation analysis showed that TDI-Tei was negatively correlated with TDI-Z (r=-0.325, P<0.01), TDI-Tei was positively correlated with serum miR-34a (r=0.260, P<0.01), TDI-Z was negatively correlated with serum miR-34a (r=-0.386, P<0.01). The AUC and the sensitivity of TDI-Tei, TDI-Z and serum miR-34a combined diagnosis of CHD complicated with PAH were higher than those of single diagnosis. In conclusion, TDI combined with serum miR-34a has higher value in the diagnosis of CHD complicated with PAH, and was worthy of clinical promotion.

In order to investigate the value of ultrasound combined with vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) in the diagnosis of biliary atresia (BA), this study examined 108 patients with cholestasis suspected of BA by ultrasonography, and obtained the long diameter of the gallbladder, the thickness of the hilar fibrous mass and the liver stiffness. Serum VEGFA of patients with cholestasis and healthy subjects was detected by ELISA. The results showed that the long diameter of gallbladder in BA patients was lower than that in non-BA patients, while the thickness of hepatic hilar fibrous mass and liver stiffness were higher than those in non-BA patients (P<0.001). Serum VEGFA levels in BA and non-BA patients were higher than those in healthy people, while BA patients had higher serum VEGFA levels than non-BA patients (P<0.001). The combined AUC (0.948) and specificity (98.25%) of the three ultrasound parameters for the diagnosis of BA were higher than those for the diagnosis alone. The AUC, sensitivity and specificity of serum VEGFA for diagnosing BA were 0.850, 78.43% and 77.19%,respectively. The AUC, sensitivity and specificity of ultrasound parameters combined with serum VEGFA in the diagnosis of BA were 0.978, 98.04% and 89.47%,respectively. The sensitivity of ultrasound parameters combined with serum VEGFA in the diagnosis of BA are higher than those of single diagnosis and combined diagnosis of ultrasound parameters, and the specificity is second only to the combined diagnosis of ultrasound parameters. This diagnostic method has high clinical application value.

This study investigated the effect of lidocaine + trisineacetonide + VitB12 suspension injection combined with fine-needle aspiration under ultrasound and modified small needle knife in the treatment of patients with carpal tunnel syndrome. 60 patients with carpal tunnel syndrome were selected as the research objects, and divided them into the study group and the control group with 30 cases in each group by random number table method. The patients in the study group were treated with lidocaine + trisineacetonide + VitB12 suspension injection combined with fine-needle aspiration under ultrasound and modified small needle knife, and the control group was treated with lidocaine + trisineacetonide + VitB12 suspension injection combined with traditional small needle knife. The visual analog pain scale (VAS) scores after 1 course, 2 courses and 3 courses of treatment were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the symptom severity scale score and functional status scale score of the patients in the study group were lower than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The median nerve sensory conduction velocity in the study group was faster than that in the control group (P<0.05), the motor terminal latency of the study group was shorter than that of the control group (P<0.05). After 3 courses of treatment, the overall therapeutic effect of the study group was better than that of the control group (P<0.05). Lidocaine + trisineacetonide + VitB12 suspension injection combined with fine needle aspiration under ultrasound and modified small needle knife in the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of patients and improve the clinical treatment effect.

This study investigated the effect of multilayer spiral CT (MSCT)-based, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) observation on postoperative infection control in patients with duodenal diverticulum combined with gallstones. 210 patients with duodenal diverticulum combined with gallstones were selected and randomly divided into study group and control group with 105 cases in each group. The control group performed ERCP endoscopic lithotripsy, and the study group performed MSCT and ERCP-based endoscopic lithotripsy. The results showed that the success rate of ERCP cannulation in the study group was higher than those in the control group, and the operation time, nasobiliary drainage time and postoperative hospitalization time were shorter than those in the control group (P<0.05). The serum C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), blood glucose (Glu), cortisol (Cor) levels at 1 d and 3 d after surgery were lower than those before surgery in both groups, but they were all lower in the study group than in the control group (P<0.05). The serum CD3⁺ and CD4⁺ levels at 1 d and 3 d after surgery were lower than those before surgery in both groups, but they were all higher in the study group than in the control group (P<0.05). The serum CD8⁺ levels at 1 d after surgery were lower than those before surgery in both groups (P<0.05). The incidence of incisional infection, biliary tract infection and recurrence rate at 6 months and 1 year after surgery in the study group were lower than in the control group (P<0.05). It can be seen that endoscopic lithotripsy based on MSCT and ERCP observation can reduce the incidence of postoperative infection and effectively reduce postoperative recurrence in patients with duodenal diverticulum combined with gallstones.

This paper investigated the value of Finkler ultrasound score combined with lemur tyrosine kinase 2 (LMTK2) gene in the diagnosis of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). In this study, 112 patients with EOC (EOC group) and 76 patients with benign epithelial tumor of ovary (benign group) underwent ultrasonography and Finkler ultrasound score, and detected the serum LMTK2 levels by RT-PCR. The results showed that the Finkler ultrasound score and the relative expression of serum LMTK2 mRNA in the EOC group were significantly higher than those in the benign group (P<0.001). There was a significant positive correlation between the Finkler ultrasound score and the relative expression of serum LMTK2 mRNA (r=0.563, P<0.001). When the Finkler ultrasound score was >5, the area under curve (AUC) of the diagnosis of EOC was 0.964. When the relative expression of serum LMTK2 mRNA was >0.415, the AUC of diagnosing EOC was 0.907. The AUC (0.986) and sensitivity (94.64%) of Finkler ultrasound score combined with serum LMTK2 in the diagnosis of EOC were higher than those of single diagnosis. The Finkler ultrasound score and the relative expression of serum LMTK2 mRNA in stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ group were significantly higher than those in stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ group (P<0.05). The AUCs of Finkler ultrasound score, serum LMTK2 and their combined diagnosis of stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ were 0.643, 0.850, and 0.851, respectively. This study showed that in the early diagnosis of EOC, compared with the single diagnosis, the Finkler ultrasound score combined with serum LMTK2 could effectively improve the diagnostic sensitivity, and the diagnostic value of serum LMTK2 for pathological staging could be higher than the Finkler ultrasound score.

This paper investigated the correlation between color Doppler ultrasonography-based deep venous reflux index (RI) and venous clinical severity score (VCSS) in patients with great saphenous varicose veins complicated with deep femoral popliteal venous reflux. 150 patients with great saphenous varicose veins combined with deep femoral popliteal venous reflux were selected as the research group, and 60 patients with great saphenous varices without deep femoral popliteal venous reflux during the same period were selected as the study group. All patients underwent color Doppler ultrasonography. The results showed that the reflux time, reflux speed and RI in the study group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The AUC of the reflux time, reflux speed and RI in the diagnosis of deep femoral popliteal venous reflux in patients with saphenous varices were 0.820, 0.749, 0.832, respectively. The AUC of combined diagnosis was 0.875. The reflux time, reflux velocity and RI were still significantly correlated with saphenous varices combined with deep femoral popliteal regurgitation (P<0.05). The RI and VCSS scores of patients with venous reflux were positively correlated with the degree of venous reflux (r=0.912, 0.806, P<0.05). The RI were positively correlated with VCSS scores of patients with great saphenous varices combined with deep femoral popliteal venous reflux (r=0.738, P<0.05). Deep vein RI based on color Doppler ultrasonography is positively correlated with VCSS score in patients with great saphenous varicose veins complicated with deep femoral popliteal venous reflux, which can assist clinical assessment of patients' condition, and the reflux time, reflux velocity and RI has a certain value helpful in the diagnosis of great saphenous varices combined with deep femoral popliteal venous reflux.

This study observed the effect of tirofiban on the antiplatelet function and CT perfusion imaging (CTPI) results of patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI) stent thrombus removal. 100 patients with ACI were randomly divided into two groups according to the admission order. The control group was treated with stent thrombectomy, and the observation group was treated with tirofiban combined with stent thrombectomy. Compared the vascular recanalization and adverse events between the two groups. The changes of CTPI results, apoptotic molecules[Caspase-3, apoptotic protein (Bax)] and platelet function indexes (platelet adhesion rate and platelet aggregation rate) were detected. There were 40 cases in the observation group with TICI grades 2b and 3, and the vascular recanalization rate was 80.00%, while in the control group, there were 31 cases in the TICI grades 2b and 3 (the vascular recanalization rate was 62.00%). The vascular recanalization rate was higher than in the control group (P<0.05). Compared with pre-therapy the relative cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) in cerebral perfusion abnormal areas in the two groups were both increased (P<0.05), while the relative mean transmit time (rMTT) and relative time to peak (rTTP) were both decreased. After treatment, rCBF and rCBV in cerebral perfusion abnormal areas in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, and rMTT and rTTP were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The Caspase-3, Bax, platelet adhesion rate and platelet aggregation rate in the two groups were decreased than those before treatment in the same group (P<0.05). After treatment, the apoptosis molecules and platelet function indexes in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The incidence of adverse events in the observation group was 4.00%, which was lower than 16.00% in the control group (P<0.05). Tirofiban can improve the cerebral hemodynamics in the cerebral perfusion abnormal area of patients with ACI stent thrombectomy with good antiplatelet function and low incidence of adverse events.

This paper explored the application value of 1.5T magnetic resonance dynamic enhanced image features and parameters in the diagnosis of breast cancer. 100 patients with breast cancer were selected as the observation group, and 60 patients with benign breast tumors treated in the same period were selected as the control group. All patients underwent magnetic resonance dynamic enhanced examination. The results showed, compared with the control group that there were statistically significant differences on the lesion morphology, edge, internal enhancement and ring enhancement in the observation group (P<0.05). In the observation group the Kep and Ktrans were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The AUC of Kep, Ktrans combined diagnosis was 0.861, which was higher than the single diagnostic value of each index. The lesion morphology, edge, internal enhancement and ring enhancement in patients with poor prognosis were compared with those in patients with good prognosis (P<0.05). Kep and Ktrans of patients with poor prognosis were higher than those with good prognosis (P<0.05). The lesion morphology, edge, internal enhancement, annular enhancement, Kep, Ktrans were independently correlated with the prognosis of breast cancer patients (P<0.05). 1.5T MRI dynamic enhancement image features of breast cancer patients are mainly irregular in shape, edge burr, internal inhomogeneous enhancement and annular enhancement, and the quantitative parameters Kep and Ktrans are at high levels, which could be clinically enhanced by MRI dynamic enhancement imaging features and parameters to diagnose breast cancer and predict prognosis.

This paper discussed the diagnostic value of echocardiography combined with serum microRNA-26b-5p (miR-26b-5p) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). 115 patients with AMI (observation group) and 80 patients with old myocardial infarction were selected as the control group, the echocardiographic parameters and serum miR-26b-5p of the two groups were analyzed. The left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDd), left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVEDs), left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV), left ventricular end systolic volume (LVESV) and myocardial work index (Tei) in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05), while the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), E/A and miR-26b-5p were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). There were significant differences in LVEF and serum miR-26b-5p levels in patients with different degrees of coronary stenosis (P<0.05). The serum miR-26b-5p was negatively correlated with Gensini score (r=-0.503, P<0.05). The sensitivity and negative predictive value of echocardiography combined with serum miR-26b-5p in the diagnosis of AMI were significantly higher than that of echocardiography alone (P<0.05). Follow-up results showed that LVEDs and LVESV in patients with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were significantly higher than those without MACE (P<0.05), and LVEF and miR-26b-5p were significantly lower than those without MACE (P<0.05). The areas under the ROC curve of LVEDs, LVEF, miR-26b-5p and combined prediction of MACE were 0.753, 0.732, 0.701 and 0.915, respectively, P<0.05. The serum level of miR-26b-5p is decreased in patients with acute myocardial infarction, miR-26b-5p combined with echocardiographic parameters has a good application value in differential diagnosis of AMI and prediction of MACE.

This paper investigated the value of ultrasound quantitative analysis technology in predicting the bleeding risk of esophageal gastric varices (EGV). 127 patients with cirrhotic portal hypertension were selected as the research objects. After 3 months of follow-up, 2 patients lost contact. According to the presence or absence of EGV bleeding all patients were divided into the occurrence group (60 cases) and the non-occurrence group (65 cases). The severity of EGV severity, Child liver function classification, liver shear wave velocity (LSWV), portal vein diameter (PV), spleen shear wave velocity (SSWV), and spleen index (SI) were compared between the two groups, and the data were statistically analyzed. The results showed that the LSWV, PV, SSWV, and SI in the occurrence group were higher than those in the non-occurrence group (P<0.05). LSWV, PV, SSWV, and SI were positively correlated with EGV severity and Child liver function grade (P<0.05). The combined predictor expression with LSWV (X₁), PV (X₂), SSWV (X₃), SI (X₄) as covariates was:Logit(P)=-3.757+2.003×X₁+1.989×X₂+1.473×X₃+1.981×X₄, and its AUC for predicting EGV bleeding risk was 0.873 and greater than the original covariates, the predictive sensitivity was 78.33%, and the specificity was 81.54%. It can be seen that the detection of LSWV, PV, SSWV, and SI by ultrasonic quantitative analysis technology could be used as a plan to predict the risk of EGV bleeding, and it can play a certain guiding role in clinical preventive intervention and surgical method.

This study investigated the value of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) in evaluating the blood supply of the femoral head in patients with femoral neck fracture and its relationship with postoperative complications of femoral head necrosis. A retrospective study of 52 patients with femoral neck fractures was selected, and the patients were grouped according to whether they had femoral head necrosis within 12 months after surgery. Among them, 130 cases without femoral head necrosis were classified as non-necrosis group, and 22 cases with femoral head necrosis were classified as necrosis group. All patients underwent DCE-MRI before surgery, 5 days after surgery, and 3 months after surgery. The peak time of the same region of interest (ROI) in the upper outer and inner upper quadrant of the affected side in the necrosis group was higher than that in the non-necrosis group at 5 days and 3 months after operation (P<0.05). Increased age, preoperative traction, Garden classification type IV, and prolonged peak time of upper outer quadrant or upper inner quadrant 5 days after operation were independent risk factors for postoperative femoral head necrosis in patients with femoral neck fracture (P<0.05). Postoperative professional rehabilitation was a protective factor for patients with femoral head necrosis (P<0.05). DCE-MRI has a certain value in evaluating the occurrence of femoral head necrosis after surgery, and it has a guiding significance for early clinical diagnosis and timely intervention measures.

After treatment, The levels of Interleukin-18 (IL-18), C reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen (FIB), thrombin time (TT), prothrombin time (PT), peak systolic velocity (PSV) and end diastolic velocity (EDV) were reduced, and the study group was lower than the control group. The RI levels of the two groups were increased after treatment, in addition, the study group was higher than the control group (P<0.05). Compared with the ineffective patients in research group, the effective patients have lower levels of PSV, EDV and higher level of RI were lower (P<0.05). The treatment response rate in research group was significantly higher than the control group (P<0.05). In conclusion, it could be seen that the inflammatory factors decreased and coagulation function improved for deep vein thrombosis after rivaroxaban and urokinase combined treatment, and the ultrasound parameters changed significantly after combined treatment. All these suggested that ultrasound could be used to evaluate thrombolysis effect in patients with LEDVT.

This study observed the effects of continuous bedside hemofiltration on kidney elasticity, renal blood flow spectrum and left ventricular myocardial function in patients with cardiorenal syndrome. Selected 104 patients with cardiorenal syndrome as the research objects, and divided them into two groups by simple random method. The control group was given basic treatment, and the observation group was given continuous bedside hemofiltration treatment on the basis of the control group. Three-dimensional ultrasonography of the kidney was used to detect the Young's modulus (YM) of the middle renal cortex, and the hemodynamics of bilateral renal arteries parameters, and using three-dimensional speckle tracking technology (3D-STE) to examine the changes of left ventricular myocardial function parameters. The results showed that the YM, resistance index (RI) data of renal hemodynamic parameters in the two groups after treatment were lower than those before treatment. The bilateral renal artery diameter (D), renal blood flow (V) and echocardiography data except for the overall area strain were higher than those before treatment, and the data of YM and renal hemodynamic parameters in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group (P<0.05). It shows that continuous bedside hemofiltration can improve kidney elasticity and renal blood flow spectrum in patients with cardiorenal syndrome, but has little effect on left ventricular myocardial function.

This article discussed the changes of autonomic nerve injury, arterial compliance ultrasound parameters and their clinical significance in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (SAHS). 140 SAHS patients were selected as the SAHS group, and 70 volunteers without SAHS-related symptoms were selected as the control group. The cardiac function parameters, aortic structure and function parameters, carotid pulse wave propagation speed(PWV1), descending aortic pulse wave velocity(PWV2) of the two groups of subjects were measured by ultrasound, and the Holter parameters changes were detected by electrocardiograph. The measured values of carotid pulse wave velocity (PWV1) and descending aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV2) in the SAHS group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The measured value of total power, very low frequency, and deceleration force (DC) were lower than that of the control group and the difference was significantly (P<0.05). The measured value of the heart rate acceleration force (AC) of the SAHS group was higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). The measured value of sleep-related apnea-hypopnea index(AHI) for SAHS patients was significantly positively correlated with PWV1, PWV2, AC (P<0.05), and the AHI measurement value in SAHS patients was significantly negatively correlated with DC (P<0.05). Patients with SAHS may have autonomic nerve damage and reduced arterial compliance, which are closely related to the severity of sleep apnea.

This study investigated the changes and effects of CT quantitative parameters in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) complicated with respiratory failure before and after nasal high flow humidification oxygen inhalation (HFNC). 200 patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) complicated with mild respiratory failure were randomly divided into two groups with 100 cases in each group. All patients were received non-invasive ventilation, and on the basis the patients in the treatment group were treated with HFNC, and the patients in the control group were treated with low flow oxygen therapy. The blood gas parameters, maximum abnormal end inspiratory volume (Cvin), maximum abnormal end expiratory volume (Cvex), lung volume, lung transverse diameter and other CT quantitative parameters of the two groups were compared before and after treatment, and the treatment effects of the two groups were compared. After 72 hours of treatment, the PaO₂, PaO₂/FiO₂ and SaO₂ values in the treatment group were higher than those in the control group, and the PaCO₂ values in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). After treatment, the measured values of Cvin, Cvex, lung transverse diameter, LAA%-950insp, LAA%-856exp in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the CAT score and mMRC score of the treatment group were lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). After one week of treatment, the effective rate of the treatment group was higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). The effect of transnasal HFNC on COPD patients complicated with respiratory failure is significant. CT lung scan can effectively observe the changes of lung function before and after transnasal HFNC treatment, which is of great significance for evaluating the clinical treatment effect.

This paper investigated the application of abdominal CT scan in the diagnosis and prognosis prediction of acute pancreatitis. The clinical data of 164 patients with acute pancreatitis were retrospectively analyzed. The abdominal CT imaging features of acute pancreatitis were analyzed and the complications and death were used as the prognostic criteria. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors of complications and death in patients with acute pancreatitis. Bahhazar-CTSI scoring system was used to grade the patients' condition, and the incidence of complications and mortality of patients with different CTSI scores were compared. The relationship between severity of acute pancreatitis and complications and death were analyzed. In 164 cases of acute pancreatitis patients, the incidence rate was 51.83%, the mortality rate was 7.32%. The complications and death of patients with acute pancreatitis were related to fatty liver, invasion of bare area of stomach, invasion of adrenal gland, effusion of suprahepatic space and invasion of perirenal space (P<0.05). The severe fatty liver, gastric bare area invasion, adrenal gland invasion, suprahepatic space effusion and perirenal space invasion were risk factors for complications in patients with acute pancreatitis (P<0.05), and gastric bare area invasion, adrenal gland invasion and suprahepatic space effusion were risk factors for death in patients with acute pancreatitis (P<0.05). Bahhazar-CTSI score was positively correlated with the incidence of complications and mortality in patients with acute pancreatitis (r=0.657, 0.688, P<0.05). Abdominal CT imaging of acute pancreatitis has characteristic signs, which can clearly show the degree of pancreatic lesions and the involvement of surrounding tissues and organs, which has high predictive value for the diagnosis and prognosis of acute pancreatitis.

This paper explored the comparative analysis of Indocyanine Green (ICG) fluorescence staining and modified inflation-deflation method in thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy. Selected 75 patients with lung cancer who received thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy, then randomly divided them into the control group with 35 cases and the study group with 40 cases according to the digital table method. The control group used the modified inflation-deflation method and the study group used the Indocyanine Green (ICG) fluorescence staining method. Compared the efficacy, operation-related indicators of the two groups, and detected the conventional lung ventilation function test. Compared with the control group, the drainage time, chest drainage flow, hospital stay, peak expiratory flow (PEF), forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and forced expiratory volume (FVC) of patients in the study group were all decreased (P<0.05). Patients in study group had earlier formation time of intersegment plane and shorter operation time than those in the control group (P<0.05). The overall incidence of complications in the control group (25.71%) was higher than that in the study group (7.50%), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Both the ICG fluorescence staining method and the modified inflation-deflation method can affect the lung function of patients during thoracoscopic pulmonary segmentectomy, while the ICG fluorescence staining method has less impact on the lung function, and the incidence of complications is also lower, which can be highly accurate identify the junction line between segments, with high security.

This paper aimed to investigate the value of dynamic electrocardiogram (DEG) combined with heart rate deceleration force and short-term blood pressure variability in the risk assessment of sudden death in patients with sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (SAHS). 92 patients with suspected SAHS were selected, and the finally diagnosed 47 patients with SAHS were set as observation group, and the remaining 45 patients were control group. All patients underwent DEG examination and short-term blood pressure variation detection. The results showed that the standard deviation of normal R-R intervals (SDNN), mean of the standard deviation of normal R-R intervals (SDANN), the root mean square of the difference (rMSSD), and the heart rate deceleration force (DC) were negatively correlated with the severity of the disease (P<0.05). The heart rate (HR), 24 h mean systolic blood pressure variability (24 h SBPV) were positively correlated with disease severity (P<0.05). Compared with SDNN, SDANN, rMSSD, HR, DC, and 24 h SBPV single assessment, the combination of six assessments was more valuable in assessing the risk of sudden death in SAHS patients (P<0.05). It shows that the risk of sudden death in SAHS patients can be evaluated by DEG combined with heart rate deceleration force and short-term blood pressure variability, and the evaluation value is high.

This paper investigated the value of 3.0T MRI multi-b-value magnetic resonance diffusion-eighted imaging (DWI) and T2*mapping imaging cartilage quantitative analysis techniques in knee osteoarthritis (KOA). 60 patients (92 knees) with KOA were selected as the observation group, and another 60 patients (90 knees) with healthy physical examination at the same period were selected as the control group, and all of them underwent multi-b-value DWI and T2*mapping sequence scanning to obtain articular cartilage slow diffusion coefficient (SlowADC value), fast diffusion coefficient (FastADC value), and T2* value. The results showed in the observation group the articular cartilage medial and lateral SlowADC, FastADC and T2* values were higher than in the control group (P<0.05). The articular cartilage medial and lateral SlowADC, FastADC and T2* values were positively correlated with the occurrence and extent of KOA (P<0.05). The AUC of combined diagnosis of articular cartilage medial and lateral SlowADC, FastADC and T2* values for KOA was 0.900, and the AUC of combined assessment of the extent for KOA was 0.881. Multi-b-value DWI and T2*mapping imaging cartilage quantitative analysis techniques can evaluate KOA cartilage damage early and distinguish different periods of KOA, which are of great value for early diagnosis and condition assessment of KOA.

This paper explored the efficacy value of magnetic resonance T₂ mapping imaging in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. 72 gymnasts with rotator cuff injury underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair were selected, and underwent routine MR sequence and T₂ mapping sequence examination of the shoulder joint before and 6 months after surgery. And then divided them into excellent group (n=52) and poor group (n=20) according 6 months postoperative effect. The results showed that the proportion of low-grade MRI in the excellent group was higher than in the poor group, and the T₂ values of the supraspinatus tendon in the middle, medial and lateral sides of the supraspinatus tendon before and 6 months after surgery were lower than those in the poor group. The constant-murley score (CMS), university shoulder score (UCLA) was higher than that of the poor group (P<0.05). The T₂ values of the middle, medial and lateral supraspinatus tendon were negatively correlated with the CMS and UCLA scores before and 6 months after surgery (P<0.05). T₂ values of the supraspinatus tendon before and 6 months after surgery were significantly correlated with the curative effect (P<0.05). The middle, medial and lateral T₂ values of the supraspinatus tendon at 6 months after surgery were combined to evaluate the postoperative curative effect. The poor area under the curve (AUC) was the largest at 0.887. Magnetic resonance T₂ mapping imaging has a high value in evaluating the efficacy of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.

This paper investigated the multilayer spiral CT imaging (MSCT) in the diagnosis of fractures after knee injury and its correlation with serum immune inflammatory factor levels. 82 gymnasts with suspected post-knee injury fractures were selected for the study, and all patients underwent X-ray, MSCT examination, and serum immune inflammatory factor testing. Compared the differences of quantitative parameters of MSCT[bone mineral density (BMD), cross-sectional moment of inertia mechanical strength index (BSICSMI), cross-sectional area mechanical strength index (BSICSA)] and the serum immune inflammatory factors[tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-1β] between fracture healed and non-healed patients, and analyzed the correlation between the quantitative parameters of MSCT and serum immune inflammatory factors, and evaluated the value of MSCT quantitative parameters and serum immune inflammatory factors in evaluating fracture non-union. The concordance Kappa value between the type of fracture and surgical outcome after the diagnosis of knee injury by MSCT was 0.901, and the compliance rate was 92.68%. BMD, BSICSA, and BSICSMI in patients with fracture healing were higher than in patients with fracture non-union, and serum TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β levels were lower than those in patients with unhealed fractures (P<0.05). After knee injury the BMD, BSICSA, and BSICSMI were negatively correlated with serum TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β levels in patients with fractures (P<0.05). The AUC of the combined assessment of quantitative parameters of MSCT and serum immune inflammatory factors for fracture nonunion was 0.908, and was better than evaluating each indicator individually. The effectiveness of MSCT in diagnosing fracture after knee injury was higher, and the quantitative CT parameters were correlated with serum immune inflammatory factors, so MSCT combined with serum immune inflammatory factors could effectively diagnose fracture nonunion.

This study investigated the efficacy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in predicting the postoperative recovery of spinal cord function in patients with spinal cord injury without radiological abnormalities (CSCIWORA). 139 patients with CSCIWORA caused by sports falls were selected as the research subjects, and they were divided into good group (n=103) and non-good group (n=36) according to the recovery situation of spinal cord function after surgery. The general data and MRI test results of the two groups were compared, and the data Statistical analysis was performed. The results showed that the time from injury to surgery was longer in the non-good group than in the good group, and the ASIA classification of spinal cord injury was more severe than in the good group (P<0.05). The patients in non-good group with spinal cord injury MRI type edema + hemorrhage and anterior cervical MRI high signal were more than the good group, and the signal length of spinal cord injury was higher than in the good group, while the effective cervical canal rate was lower than in the good group (P<0.05). Time from injury to operation, American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) classification of spinal cord injury, MRI type of spinal cord injury, cervical MRI prevertebral hyperintensity, signal length of spinal cord injury, and effective cervical spinal canal rate were all correlated with the improvement rate of the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score (P<0.05). The AUC of spinal cord injury signal length was the largest among single MRI parameters, but it was still lower than the AUC of all MRI parameters combined (0.922). It can be seen that the type of spinal cord injury MRI, cervical MRI prevertebral high signal, spinal cord injury signal length and effective cervical canal rate are related to the recovery of spinal cord function in patients with CSCIWORA after surgery. MRI technique can reliably predict the regression of spinal cord function after surgery.

This paper investigated the differential diagnostic value of globus pallidus T1-weighted image (T1WI) signal intensity combined with magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) images for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (HB) condition, and the correlation analysis with serum bilirubin (TsB) and transcutaneous bilirubin (TcB). 132 neonates with HB were selected, and according to the serum TsB level they were divided into mild, moderate and severe groups. Among them there were 42 cases of children with concomitant acute bilirubin encephalopathy, and 47 healthy neonates at the same time were selected as the control group. All neonates were performed magnetic resonance examination to obtain globus pallidus T1WI signal intensity and MRS image related indexes[N-ethylphthalate aspartate (NAA)/creatine complex (Cr), choline complex (Cho)/Cr, Cho/NAA]. The results showed that the T1WI signal intensity of the left and right globus pallidus, Cho/Cr, Cho/NAA in the severe group > moderate group > mild group > control group, and the NAA/Cr in the severe group < moderate group < mild group < control group (P<0.05). The T1WI signal intensity of the left and right globus pallidus in children with HB were negatively correlated with NAA/Cr and positively correlated with Cho/Cr and Cho/NAA (P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of left globus pallidus T1WI signal intensity, right globus pallidus T1WI signal intensity, NAA/Cr, Cho/Cr, Cho/NAA combined diagnosis of neonatal HB was 0.901. The signal intensity of left and right globus pallidus T1WI, Cho/Cr, Cho/NAA were higher in children with concomitant acute bilirubin encephalopathy after treatment were higher than those of the control group, and the NAA/Cr were lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). It can be seen that the T1WI signal intensity of the globus pallidus combined with MRS images has high sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of HB in newborns, and the early detection can assist in the clinical prevention and treatment measures.

This study investigated the value of ultramicroscopic flow imaging (SMI) in evaluating the formation of neovascularization (IPN) in carotid atherosclerotic plaques and in predicting the occurrence of acute cerebral infarction (ACI). 60 patients with ACI with carotid atherosclerotic plaque were set as the ACI group and 60 patients with carotid plaque without ACI set as the control group. Both of the two groups underwent SMI, ultrasound angiography (CEUS) examination, and compared the grading of neovascularization in the carotid plaque detected by SMI and CEUS in the two groups, and the multivariate Logistic model was used to analyze the relationship between the formation of IPN in the plaque and the occurrence of ACI. A total of 120 carotid plaques were detected in 60 ACI patients. The consistency test value of SMI and CEUS in diagnosing IPN formation in carotid plaques was Kappa=0.723, P=0.000. A total of 127 carotid plaques were detected in the control group, and the concordance Kappa value of SMI and CEUS in diagnosing IPN formation in carotid plaques was 0.537, P=0.000. The serum TG, LDL-C elevation, concomitant diabetes mellitus, concomitant hypertension, and IPN formation in carotid plaques were the independent risk factors for ACI patients (P<0.05). SMI is highly consistent with CEUS in evaluating carotid atherosclerotic plaque IPN formation, and carotid plaque IPN formation is highly correlated with the occurrence of ACI in patients.

This paper analyzed the relationship between superb micro-vascular imaging (SMI) carotid artery plaque characteristics and the incidence of ischemic stroke. Selected 96 patients with carotid artery plaque as research subjects, there were 76 patients occurred ischemic stroke during follow-up and set as the study group, and the remaining 20 patients without ischemic stroke were the control group. Both the two groups underwent SMI to obtain carotid plaque characteristics. Compared with the control group, the plaque thickness, plaque length, calcification degree, lipid degree were higher and the level of fiber degree were lower in the study group (P<0.05). With the increase of plaque thickness, plaque length, plaque calcification degree, lipid degree, and the decrease of fiber degree, the patients' incidence of ischemic stroke increased, and those with plaque thickness> 4 mm, plaque length> 20 mm, plaque calcification degree>20%, lipid degree>20%, and fiber degree <50% had the highest incidence of ischemic stroke. The diagnostic accuracy of SMI for ischemic stroke was 97.37% (P>0.05). In conclusion, the plaque characteristics of SMI are closely related to the incidence of ischemic stroke, and the SMI has a high value in the diagnosis of ischemic stroke.

This study analyzed the diagnostic value of high-frequency ultrasound elastography combined with anti-thyroglobulin antibody (Anti-TG) and anti-thyroid peroxidase (Anti-TPO) in the diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules. 55 patients with suspected thyroid nodules were selected as the research objects. According to pathological examination results, they were divided into the benign group with 30 cases and a malignant group with 25 cases. The levels of Anti-TG and Anti-TPO were detected by automatic chemiluminescence analyzer, and the correlation between high-frequency ultrasound elastography and Anti-TG and Anti-TPO was analyzed by Pearson correlation. Compared with benign patients, malignant patients had higher diastolic blood flow velocity (D), resistance index (RI) and pulsatility index (PI) (P<0.05). Compared with benign patients, Anti-TG and Anti-TPO were increased in malignant patients (P<0.05). D, RI and PI parameters were positively correlated with the expression levels of Anti-TG and Anti-TPO. Compared with the single diagnosis of D, RI and PI, the combination of the three items has higher diagnostic value for malignant thyroid nodules (P<0.001). High-frequency ultrasound elastography has high diagnostic value in patients with benign and malignant thyroid nodules, and is correlated with the patient's Anti-TG and Anti-TPO indicators, which can be used for the diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules.

This paper aimed to explore the correlation between bedside ultrasonography, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and D-dimer (D-D) in the diagnosis analysis of renal injury in children with sepsis. 60 children with suspected sepsis complicated with renal injury were selected as the research objects,and they were divided into renal injury (40 cases) and non-renal injury (20 cases). According to the level of 24 h urinary albumin excretion rate the renal injury group were divided into the severe renal injury group (n=22) and the moderate renal injury group (n=18). All children underwent bedside ultrasonography, BUN and D-D levels test. Compared with the non-kidney injury group, the inspiratory collapse rate of the inferior vena cava in the renal injury group were decreased, and the inner diameter of the inferior vena cava and the ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVIDd) were higher (P<0.05). Compared with patients with mild renal injury, the inspiratory collapse rate of the inferior vena cava were lower in patients with moderate renal injury, and the inner diameter of the inferior vena cava and the level of LVIDd were higher (P<0.05). Compared with the children in the mild renal injury group, the BUN and D-D levels of the children in the moderate renal injury group were increased (P<0.05). The inner diameter of the inferior vena cava and LVIDd were positively correlated with the BUN and D-D levels. The inspiratory collapse rate of the inferior vena cava was negatively correlated with the levels of BUN and D-D (P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of bedside ultrasound combined with BUN and D-D monitoring in the diagnosis of sepsis complicated with renal injury were higher than those of single detection (P<0.05). Bedside ultrasound combined with BUN and D-D monitoring can improve the diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity of renal injury in children with sepsis.
