Low-dose CT for lung cancer screening: opportunities and challenges

Hongbing Shen

Frontiers of Medicine 2018, Volume 12, Issue 1,   Pages 116-121 doi: 10.1007/s11684-017-0600-1

Abstract:

Lung cancer is among the most frequently diagnosed cancers worldwide and the leading cause of cancer death in both males and females. Screening for lung cancer coupled with earlier intervention has long been studied as an approach to mortality reduction. However, minimal progress was achieved until recently, when low-dose spiral computed tomography (LDCT) screening demonstrated a 20% reduction in mortality from lung cancer in a randomized controlled trial (RCT), the National Lung Screening Trial, from the United States. On the basis of this finding, LDCT has been recommended for lung cancer screening in high-risk populations by several clinical guidelines. However, results from the following independent RCTs in Europe failed to show consistent conclusions. In addition, intractable problems gradually emerged with the progress of LDCT screening. This paper summarizes and discusses the main observations and challenges of LDCT screening for lung cancer. Before spreading implementation of LDCT screening, challenges, including high false-positive rates, overdiagnosis, enormous costs, and radiation risk, must be addressed. Complementary biomarkers and technical improvement are expected in the field of lung cancer screening in the near future.

Creep-fatigue crack growth behavior in GH4169 superalloy

Dianyin HU, Xiyuan WANG, Jianxing MAO, Rongqiao WANG

Frontiers of Mechanical Engineering 2019, Volume 14, Issue 3,   Pages 369-376 doi: 10.1007/s11465-018-0489-7

Abstract: This study aims to examine the crack growth behavior of turbine disc GH4169 superalloy under creep-fatigue loading. Crack growth experiments were performed on compact tension specimens using trapezoidal waveform with dwell time at the maximum load at 650 °C. The crack growth rate of GH4169 superalloy significantly increased with dwell time. The grain boundaries oxidize during the dwell process, thereby inducing an intergranular creep-fatigue fracture mode. In addition, testing data under the same dwell time showed scattering at the crack growth rate. Consequently, a modified model based on the Saxena equation was proposed by introducing a distribution factor for the crack growth rate. Microstructural observation confirmed that the small grain size and high volume fraction of the d phase led to a fast creep-fatigue crack growth rate at 650 °C, thus indicating that two factors, namely, fine grain and presence of the d phase at the grain boundary, increased the amount of weakened interface at high temperature, in which intergranular cracks may form and propagate.

Frontiers of Medicine 2007, Volume 1, Issue 2,   Pages 142-146 doi: 10.1007/s11684-007-0027-1

Abstract: This study was designed to compare the approaches and efficacies of two different ways of neurosurgical management for spontaneous putaminal hemorrhage (SPH): computed tomographic-guided aspiration (CTGA) and the key-hole approach (KHA). The indications of the two approaches are also explored. From September 2001 to 2003, a total of 1077 cases of SPH distributed in 135 hospitals all over the mainland of China were included for analysis. All cases had three-month follow-up data. The study was designed in a single-blinded manner to compare the efficacies of the different approaches. There were 563 cases in the CTGA group, 165 in the KHA group, and 217 cases in the conventional open craniotomy (COC) group. In the CTGA and KHA groups, the mortalities at one month after operation (M1m) were 17.9% and 18.3%, respectively, while the mortalities at three months after operation (M3m) were 19.4% and 19.4%, respectively (>0.05). The postoperative complications due to CTGA (23.7%) were not significantly different from those due to KHA (25.7%) ( = 0.420). The M3m of patients with Glasgow coma scale (GCS) "d8 was 3.45 and 4.0 times as much as those with GCS>8, respectively. The M3m of patients with complications was 3.92 times as much as those without complications. The M3m of patients with hemorrhage volume "e70 mL was 2.67 times as much as those <70 mL. The CTGA is not better than KHA in the treatment of SPH in terms of a more favorable outcome or less mor tality and morbidity, but CTGA could be the first choice for those with bleeding volumes "d50mL, while KHA is the first choice for those with bleeding volumes >50 mL.

Direct Evidence of Coal Swelling and Shrinkage with Injecting CO2 and N2 Using in-situ Synchrotron X-ray Microtomography Article

Guanglei Zhang, P.G. Ranjith, Herbert E. Huppert

Engineering 2022, Volume 18, Issue 11,   Pages 88-95 doi: 10.1016/j.eng.2022.03.010

Abstract:

Deep coal seams are one of the world’s most widespread deposits for carbon dioxide (CO2) disposal and are generally located near large point sources of CO2 emissions. The injection of CO2 into coal seams has great potential to sequester CO2 while simultaneously enhancing coalbed methane (CO2-ECBM) recovery. Pilot tests of CO2-ECBM have been conducted in coal seams worldwide with favorable early results. However, one of the main technical barriers in coal seams needs to be resolved: Injecting CO2 reduces coal permeability and well injectivity. Here, using in situ synchrotron X-ray microtomography, we provide the first observational evidence that injecting nitrogen (N2) can reverse much of this lost permeability by reopening fractures that have closed due to coal swelling induced by CO2 adsorption. Our findings support the notion that injecting minimally treated flue gas—a mixture of mainly N2 and CO2—is an attractive alternative for ECBM recovery instead of pure CO2 injection in deep coal seams. Firstly, flue gas produced by power plants could be directly injected after particulate removal, thus avoiding high CO2-separation costs. Secondly, the presence of N2 makes it possible to maintain a sufficiently high level of coal permeability. These results suggest that flue-gas ECBM for deep coal seams may provide a promising path toward net-zero emissions from coal mines.
