Objective:Lymph node status is critical when selecting treatment methods for patients with early gastric cancer(EGC).The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic value of computed tomography(CT)for detection of lymph node metastasis(LNM)in patients with EGC.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed patients who had pathologically confirmed EGC between November 2010 and January 2019.After 1:1 propensity score matching,65 patients with LNM and 65 patients without LNM were retained for comparison.The long diameter(LD)and short diameter(SD)of all visualized lymph nodes in all stations were recorded.The diagnostic value of LNM was assessed with receiver operating characteristic analysis.Results:Among 130 patients,we found a total of 558 lymph nodes on the CT images.Among the diagnostic indicators,the number,sum of LD and sum of SD of lymph nodes greater than 3 mm had better discrimination.The areas under the curve were all greater than 0.75.As for different regions,the optimal cutoff values of number,the sum of LD and sum of SD were determined as follows:overall,≥4,19.9 mm and 13.5 mm;left gastric artery basin,≥3,15.7 mm and 8.6 mm;right gastroepiploic artery basin,≥2,8.6 mm and 7.0 mm.Conclusions:CT is valuable for diagnosing LNM in EGC patients.The number,sum of LD and sum of SD of lymph nodes greater than 3 mm are preferable indicators.Different regional lymph nodes have different optimal criteria for predicting LNM in ECG patients.

心血管疾病是心脏和血管方面相关的疾病,包括高血压、高脂血症、血栓栓塞、冠心病和心力衰竭等.心血管疾病严重危害人类健康,是全球范围内造成死亡的最主要原因.维护心血管系统健康的关键因素是对疾病的预防.植物精油及其部分成分能舒张血管、降血压、抗心肌缺血、预防和改善动脉粥样硬化、抗血小板聚集以及抗心律失常,从而对心血管系统具有保护作用.植物精油有益于人体的心血管系统,但需要更多的临床研究和安全性研究的证据.
