Objective:To discuss the quantitative evaluation of left ventricular systolic function in patients with light-chain amyloidosis (AL) by pressure-strain loop (PSL).Methods:Forty-six patients with clinically diagnosed as AL in the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to December 2020 were selected as case group, and they were divided into 2 groups according to whether the thickness of interventricular septum and posterior wall at end-diastole was >12 mm; ①cardiac amyloidosis (CA) group (21 cases, the thickness>12mm); ②non cardiac amyloidosis (NCA) group (25 cases, the thickness≤12 mm). Twenty five healthy volunteers were selected as control group at the same time. Routine echocardiography was performed in all subjects.Two-dimensional dynamic images of the left ventricular apical two-chamber, three-chamber, and four-chamber views were collected for three consecutive cardiac cycles using two-dimensional speckle-tracking. A tracing analysis was conducted and blood pressure was entered on the off-line Echo PAC 203 software, and the left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS), peak strain time dispersion(PSD), global myocardial work index (GWI), global constructive work (GCW), global wasted work (GWW) and global work efficiency (GWE) were obtained. The differences of GLS, PSD and myocardial work (GWI, GCW, GWW, GWE) parameters were compared between groups, and Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlations.Results:①Routine echocardiography: Compared with the control group and NCA group, inter-ventricular septum thickness (IVST), left ventricle posterior wall thickness (LVPWT), left ventricular mass index (LVMI), left atrial diameter (LAD), and E/e′ in CA group were increased, while left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was decreased; ②Compared with the control group, GLS, GWI, and GCW in NCA group were decreased, while there were no statistically differences in GWE, PSD, and GWW between the two groups (all P>0.05); Compared with the control group and NCA group, GLS, GWI, GCW, and GWE were obviously decreased, while PSD and GWW were obviously increased in CA group.③ Correlation analysis showed that: the absolute value of GLS was positively correlated with GWI, GCW and GWE ( r=0.654, 0.695, 0.788; all P<0.001), and negatively correlated with GWW, and PSD ( r=-0.710, -0.625; all P<0.001). Besides, PSD had negative correlation with GWI, GCW and GWE ( r=-0.754, -0.653, -0.702; all P<0.001), and positive correlation with GWW ( r=0.676, P<0.001). Conclusions:PSL can quantitatively evaluate the left ventricular systolic function of AL patients, while the myocardial work parameters are conducive to evaluate the degree of cardiac involvement in the course of AL patients.

Methods Ultrasonographic characteristics of ureter involvement with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in 819 patients were retrospectively analyzed,which were verified by pathology lately 4 years in tumor hospital. Results There were 50 patients with abnormal kidney ultrasono-graphic characteristics,however,there were 5 patients with abnormal ureter. There were progressive changes of ultrasonographic characteristics in kidney and ureter. Such as diffuse pathologic changes in side to double kidney medulla and ureter. Conclusions The occurrence rate of the NHL,renal involvement is relatively high,nevertheless,urter involvement is rare and lack of recognition in NHL. So it is important to further research by ultrasonography in NHL.
Objectives To explore the application of instantaneous wave intensity for early diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)‐induced atherosclerosis, we observed carotid elasticity by instantaneous wave intensity in premenopausal women with SLE. Methods The study included 3 groups (each group with 30 participants): SLE1 (course of disease <5 years), SLE2 (course of disease ≥5 years) and healthy control. Carotid parameters, including instantaneous acceleration wave intensity, instantaneous deceleration wave intensity, negative area, stiffness constant, wave intensity pulse wave velocity, stiffness constant pulse wave velocity, pressure strain elastic modulus, arterial compliance, augmentation index, and intima‐media thickness, were measured. Results Compared with the control group, the instantaneous deceleration wave intensity, stiffness constant, pressure strain elastic modulus, wave intensity pulse wave velocity, and stiffness constant pulse wave velocity were significantly increased but the arterial compliance was significantly decreased in the SLE1 and SLE2 groups (all P ≤ .01). The instantaneous acceleration wave intensity, augmentation index, and negative area tended to increase in all 3 groups, but there were no statistical differences among the groups. The instantaneous deceleration wave intensity, stiffness constant, pressure strain elastic modulus, wave intensity pulse wave velocity, and stiffness constant pulse wave velocity were significantly higher in the SLE2 group than the SLE1 group, but the arterial compliance was significantly lower in the SLE2 group than the SLE1 group (all P ≤ .01). Conclusions Instantaneous wave intensity can be used to evaluate carotid elasticity in the patients with SLE, which is important for early prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease.
