Computed tomography in the x-ray diagnosis of pneumonia

Experience in the use of CT in combined radiodiagnosis of pneumonia was analysed. It has been concluded that CT objectively reflects morphological inflammatory pulmonary changes and permits their all-round assessment over time. The diagnosis of pneumonia in CT is based on classical x-ray symptoms. As compared to survey radiography CT reveals symptoms of pneumonia to the full at earlier stages. CT is an important additional method of investigation of inflammatory pulmonary diseases, but it should not be used separately without survey radiography. In a majority of cases when CT is performed there is no need in x-ray tomography.     

M. pneumoniae respiratory diseases: clinical features--children

Chest X-ray findings were studied in 618 pediatric patients with M. pneumoniae respiratory infections. Of these, 472 (76 percent) had pneumonia. Pneumonia was most frequently observed in the lower lung field and least frequently in the upper lung field. The enlargement of hilar lymph nodes was observed in 34 percent of patients with M. pneumoniae pneumonia in contrast to 5 to 9 percent of patients with pneumonia due to other agents, suggesting that it was rather characteristic of M. pneumoniae pneumonia. It was observed in no patients below one year of age, in 41 percent of those aged one to five years, and then decreased with increase in age. Of children with M. pneumoniae respiratory infections, fever, pneumonia, and positive CF test were less frequently observed in infants below one year, showing that they have slighter symptoms; positive IHA test was less frequently observed and isolation of M. pneumoniae was more frequently observed, as compared to other age groups, among whom these findings were similar. It must be kept in mind, however, that fatal cases of M. pneumoniae pneumonia in infants were reported.     

Clinico-morphologic analysis of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis in patients up to the 19th year of life

Deaths of patients with the subacute sclerosing panencephalitis were analysed in the non-selected autopsy material within 1976-1985. Fifteen cases of the disease, i.e. 0.12% of all autopsies and 3.8% of autopsies in the age group between 1 and 19 years, were noted. Fourteen cases of the subacute sclerosing panencephalitis were noted in the age group of 5-14 years. Mean age was 9.3 years. The disease was nearly three-fold more frequent in male patients. Time lapse between measles infection or antimeasles vaccination and hospitalization for the subacute sclerosing panencephalitis was 4.2 years for both sexes and was much lower for male patients--2.9 years. Morphological lesions characteristic for the subacute sclerosing panencephalitis were seen in the white matter and cortex of the brain in all examined patients. Lesions to the basal ganglia were noted in 9 cases, and additionally to the brain stem and vermiform lobe in 3 cases. The most frequent clinical symptoms accompanying the subacute sclerosing panencephalitis at the beginning of the hospitalization, other diseases and conformation of the clinical diagnosis with sectional findings are also discussed.     

机化性肺炎患者的CT引导下经皮肺穿刺活检及其临床诊治分析

目的:探讨CT引导下经皮肺穿刺活检对机化性肺炎患者的诊断价值,并总结机化性肺炎的临床诊治经验。方法:回顾性分析2015年7月-2017年9月在南京医科大学附属常州第二人民医院住院行CT引导下经皮肺穿刺活检取得肺部病灶组织确诊为机化性肺炎的14例患者,所有患者行CT引导下经皮肺穿刺活检,总结机化性肺炎患者的临床诊治经验。结果:14例机化性肺炎患者平均年龄为59岁,平均起病时间为21天。主要临床症状以发热、咳嗽、咳痰为主。6例肺部听诊可闻及湿啰音。影像学检查主要表现为肺部斑片状不均匀密度增高影。所有患者初次就诊时均未首先诊断考虑机化性肺炎。所有患者入院后均行CT引导下经皮肺穿刺活检术,术后病理均确诊为机化性肺炎,术中3例出现少量气胸,4例出现少量出血,予吸氧止血等对症处理后好转。14例患者予糖皮质激素治疗后,主要临床症状改善,影像学检查均较前吸收好转。结论:对于持续性干咳、呼吸困难、发热病人,抗生素疗效差,影像学显示片状或块状影病灶,特别是游走性斑片阴影,需要高度警惕机化性肺炎。CT引导下经皮肺穿刺活检可作为明确机化性肺炎诊断的首选方法。机化性肺炎对糖皮质激素治疗敏感,可出现可逆性的好转,一旦确诊,建议及早使用糖皮质激素治疗。     

Clinical features of mycoplasmal pneumonia in adults

We have examined 221 cases of mycoplasmal pneumonia in adults during the past 17 years. During this time epidemic waves occurred every three to four years. The incidence of disease was highest in patients 20 to 30 years of age. The most common clinical features were cough, fever, sputum, and rales. The most characteristic feature was a persistent cough which lasted about three to four weeks. Roentgenographic examinations showed a variety of patterns, but the most consistent feature was a feathery shadow, appearing in the lower field of either or both of the lungs. Lung function tests showed peripheral airway impairment. Although roentgenographic examination provided useful information, it could not be used as a pathognomic feature of mycoplasmal pneumonia. Tetracyclines were most effective for eliminating clinical symptoms, whereas the macrolides provided the best response based on roentgenographic evaluations.     

Comparative review of respiratory diseases caused by coronaviruses and influenza A viruses during epidemic season

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) continues to sweep the world, causing infection of millions and death of hundreds of thousands. The respiratory disease that it caused, COVID-19 (stands for coronavirus disease in 2019), has similar clinical symptoms with other two CoV diseases, severe acute respiratory syndrome and Middle East respiratory syndrome (SARS and MERS), of which causative viruses are SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV, respectively. These three CoVs resulting diseases also share many clinical symptoms with other respiratory diseases caused by influenza A viruses (IAVs). Since both CoVs and IAVs are general pathogens responsible for seasonal cold, in the next few months, during the changing of seasons, clinicians and public heath may have to distinguish COVID-19 pneumonia from other kinds of viral pneumonia. This is a discussion and comparison of the virus structures, transmission characteristics, clinical symptoms, diagnosis, pathological changes, treatment and prevention of the two kinds of viruses, CoVs and IAVs. It hopes to provide information for practitioners in the medical field during the epidemic season.     

老年性肺炎的临床特点及病原学分析

目的调查分析老年肺炎的危险因素、病原学特点及临床特征。方法收集2005年1月至2009年3月呼吸内科住院的72例老年肺炎患者病例,统计并分析其临床特点及细菌培养结果。结果本组资料显示大部分患者有基础疾病及易感因素,临床表现不典型;共检出病原菌108株,其中革兰阴性杆菌63株（58.3%）;混合感染35例,占48.6%,二重感染13例,占18.1%。结论提高对老年肺炎的诊断率,根据其病原学特征合理使用抗生素,并建议对老年肺炎患者采用降阶梯疗法,以提高治愈率。     

婴幼儿肺炎患儿肠道微生态平衡的临床研究

Clinical course of uremic neuropathy in long-term hemodialysis

One hundred and thirty-one patients on long-term hemodialysis were examined for the presence of clinical symptoms and signs, and for the effects of dialytic age, age and sex on uremic neuropathy. According to dialysis age, the patients were divided into three subgroups: low dialysis age, < 5 years of dialysis (n = 58); intermediate dialysis age, 5-10 years of hemodialysis (n = 39); and high dialysis age, > 10 years of dialysis (n = 34). Two patient subgroups were differentiated according to mean age of 53.2 years: younger (n = 57) and older (n = 74). Clinical grading of uremic neuropathy was based on Nielsen's criteria. The most common symptoms were restless legs syndrome (47%) and cramps (51%). Sensory symptoms were less common in patients on long-term hemodialysis, most common of them being paresthesia (29%) and burning feet syndrome (28%). Abnormal Achilles reflex (53%) and impaired vibration sense (59%) were the most common clinical signs. Clinically manifested uremic neuropathy was present in more than 80% of all study patients, i.e. mild in 41%, and moderate to severe forms of uremic neuropathy according to Nielsen's criteria in 39%. There was no evident effect of dialytic age and sex on the clinical course of uremic neuropathy, however, there was a clear impact of age. It is concluded that long-term hemodialysis does not influence the clinical course of uremic neuropathy unlike evident deterioration of electroneurophysiologic findings.     

Late renal failure due to prostatic outflow obstruction: a preventable disease.

Nineteen patients presenting with late renal failure due to prostatic outflow obstruction (mean age 68.7 years; mean serum creatinine concentration 1158 mumol/l) were identified from the admission records of two renal units. As late renal failure secondary to prostatic enlargement is preventable case records were analysed retrospectively in an attempt to identify aspects of management in which preventive efforts might be of value. Delays in referral were common, with a mean of 2.8 years between the onset of prostatic symptoms and time of referral, six patients being referred who had had symptoms for more than three years. Four of five patients who had had a prostatectomy were known to be in renal failure at the time of operation but were not referred until 2-13 years later, when prostatic symptoms had recurred and there was evidence of progressive nephropathy with dilatation of the upper urinary tract. Two patients died on admission and eight (47% of survivors) required long term dialysis, most patients (80%) requiring some dialysis support during the initial period. These findings suggest that progressive nephropathy caused by prostatic outflow obstruction might, in part, be averted by more adequate screening of renal function in men with untreated prostatism and closer follow up of patients with uraemia at the time of prostatectomy.     

Sensitivity to mugwort pollen allergens (Artemisia vulgaris)

The author has found that 42% of patients with pollinosis had positive skin reactions with mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) pollen allergens. The majority of tested patients (139 out of 187) were also allergic to grass pollens. However, hypersensitivity to mugwort pollen allergens was isolated and did not accompany grass pollen allergy. The symptoms of pollinosis appeared in this group later than in patients sensitive to grass pollen allergens only (over 21 years of age in 71%). Bronchial asthma was diagnosed in 40% of these patients and allergic skin reactions in 25%. Sensitivity to mugwort pollen allergens was accompanied by the sensitivity to pollen allergens of Graminae family of plants in 80% of cases. The author suggests that sensitivity to mugwort pollen allergens is the second most frequent cause of the pollinosis and is diagnosed too rarely. Failures of desensitization in patients sensitive to pollen allergens of Graminae family of plants may often result from coexisting sensitivity to mugwort pollen allergens as this sensitivity produces not only season but perennial clinical symptoms in nearly 50% of patients. The author discusses also botanical relations and cross-reactions in allergy to mugwort and ragweed pollen allergens.     

小儿急性结核性脑膜炎124例临床分析

目的：探讨小儿急性结核性脑膜炎的临床诊断及治疗方法。方法：收集小儿急性结核性脑膜炎的住院病例124例,每例病人均做脑脊液、OT试验检查,106例病人做胸部X线、44例做头颅CT、62例做脑电图等检查,对首发症状,阳性体征及上述检查结果进行分析评价。结果：本组124例诊断明确,经抗痨、对症等治疗,好转112例(90％),死亡8例(6．45％),放弃治疗4例(3．22％)。结论：小儿结核性脑膜炎临床表现缺乏特异性,易误诊为其它中枢神经系统感染性疾病,不同的年龄段其首发症状有所偏向,其正确诊断有赖于综合的临床资料及检查结果,早期发现,早期抗痨治疗是控制病情发展,减少死亡的关键。     

Severe community-acquired pneumonia: etiology]

A complex microbiological (sputum, protected brush biopsy of the bronchial mucosa) and immunological examination of 40 male patients (the average age of 55.4 +/- 8.8 years) with severe community-acquired pneumonia (risk classes III-V according to Fine M.J. et al., 1997) revealed the disease etiology in 52.5 per cent of the cases. The leading pathogen was Streptococcus pneumoniae. It was detected in 61.6 per cent of the cases of the etiologically verified pneumonia. Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae were also among the actual pathogens (14.3 and 14.3 per cent respectively). The Legionnaires infection was not confirmed in any of the patients (enzyme-linked immunological analysis of urine for the serotype 1-6 Legionella pneumophila antigen). In the absolute majority of the patients the isolated pneumococci were susceptible (E-test) to benzylpenicillin. Only in 1 patients with severe pneumonia and secondary bacteriemia the pneumococcal isolates were moderately resistant to benzylpenicillin (the MIC of 0.125 mg/ml). Still, they were susceptible to ceftriaxone (the MIC of 0.023 mg/ml). The data are useful in the development of a national (regional) programme for empirical antibacterial therapy of severe community-acquired pneumonia.     

The Features of Genetic Prion Diseases Based on Chinese Surveillance Program

Objective

To identify the features of Chinese genetic prion diseases.

Methods

Suspected Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) cases that were reported under CJD surveillance were diagnosed and subtyped using the diagnostic criteria issued by the WHO. The general information concerning the patient, their clinical, MRI and EEG data, and the results of CSF 14-3-3 and PRNP sequencing were carefully collected from the database of the national CJD surveillance program and analyzed using the SPSS 11.5 statistical software program.

Results

Since 2006, 69 patients were diagnosed with genetic prion diseases and as having 15 different mutations. The median age of the 69 patients at disease onset was 53.5 years, varying from 19 to 80 years. The majority of patients displaying clinical symptoms were in the 50–59 years of age. FFI, T188K gCJD and E200K were the three most common subtypes. The disease appeared in the family histories of 43.48% of the patients. The clinical manifestations varied considerably among the various diseases. Patients who carried mutations in the N-terminus displayed a younger age of onset, were CSF 14-3-3 negative, had a family history of the condition, and experienced a longer duration of the condition. The clinical courses of T188K were significantly shorter than those of FFI and E200K gCJD, while the symptoms in the FFI group appeared at a younger age and for a longer duration. Moreover, the time intervals between the initial neurologist visit to the final diagnosis were similar among patients with FFI, T188K gCJD, E200K gCJD and other diseases.

Conclusion

The features of Chinese genetic prion diseases are different from those seen in Europe and other Asian countries.

The clinical picture of legionnaires' disease

The results of the clinico-laboratory study of 12 cases of acute pneumonia of Legionella etiology are presented. The laboratory diagnosis of Legionella infection was carried out by the study of paired sera in the passive hemagglutination test with the use of Legionella pneumophila (serotype 1) erythrocyte diagnosticum. The clinical picture of pneumonia was characterized by a severe and moderate course of the disease. Characteristic symptoms indicating the presence of indurations and infiltrations in the lung tissue were registered. Roentgenological examination revealed that the foci of pulmonary tissue infiltration appeared in the segments of the lower lobes of both lungs. In 6 patients neutrophil leukopenia, in 4 patients relative lymphocytopenia, in 5 patients monocytopenia, in 11 patients the increase of the erythrocyte sedimentation rate and in 4 patients normochromic anemia were registered. More seldom changes in the levels of residual nitrogen, urea, fibrinogen and transaminases were observed. In most cases the resolution of pneumonia was observed on weeks 2-3 of treatment. In this treatment erythromycin, rifampicin and oleandomycin, used in combination, used in combination with detoxication and infusion therapy, vitamins, vascular and other symptomatic remedies, proved to be most effective. The cases of Legionella infection under study were sporadic and epidemiologically unrelated. The severity of the course of the disease depended mainly on the general state of the patient prior to infection, age and concomitant diseases.
