    Abstract AbstractAeschynanthus smaragdinus F.Wen & J.Q.Qin, a new species of Gesneriaceae from the monsoon rain forest in Mangbang township, Tengchong City, Yunnan Province, China, is described and illustrated here. It morphologically resembles A. chiritoides C.B.Clarke in size, shape and hairs on the leaf blades. But it can easily be distinguished from the latter by the green corolla limb with brownish-red to maroon lower lobes. At the same time, the hairs of the pedicel and calyx lobes, the length of the staminode and the size of the seed grain can also help distinguish both. It is provisionally assessed as Data Deficient (DD), according to the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria, because field surveys for this new taxon have not been completed.

    Abstract Background: Identifying patients with atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) who will be improved in renal function after percutaneous transluminal renal artery stenting (PTRAS) is crucial since most patients show no worthwhile benefit of PTRAS. Although the assessment of renal parenchymal perfusion is useful for the identification, few studies predict the renal functional improvement by evaluating the characteristics of renal perfusion.
    Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the renal parenchymal perfusion in ARAS patients with contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) and predict the benefits of renal function after PTRAS utilizing time-intensity curve (TIC) parameters.
    Methods: Thirty-eight kidneys in 30 ARAS patients received PTRAS in this study. They were divided into moderate stenosis group (n=25) and severe stenosis group (n=13) and mild dysfunction group (n=14) and moderate dysfunction group (n=24) according to the degree of renal stenosis and radioisotope glomerular filtration rate (rGFR). The baseline assessment of renal function and renal parenchymal perfusion were performed for all patients. rGFR was repeated to evaluate the renal outcome at 4 months after PTRAS. The outcome of PTRAS was classified as improved, stable, or deteriorated compared to the baseline. Time-intensity curve (TIC) parameters obtained from CEUS were analyzed to evaluate the predictive accuracy.
    Results: TIC parameters (AUC and PI) were positively correlated with renal function (r=0.617, 0.663; P<0.05) but weakly and negatively correlated with the stenosis (r=-0.360, -0.435; P<0.05). Baseline rGFR was not accurate in predicting improved renal function after PTRAS (0.670). The accuracy of the combined prediction model of baseline AUC and PI (0.889) was higher than the individual indicators (baseline AUC: 0.855 and PI: 0.782).
    Conclusion: CEUS could accurately assess renal parenchymal perfusion and identify ARAS patients with potential benefit after PTRAS. The combination of TIC parameters (AUC and PI) is valuable in the prediction of improved renal function after PTRAS.

    Abstract Background: The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with sepsis is high, and the prognosis of patients with septic AKI is poor. The early diagnosis and treatment of septic AKI is of great significance in improving the prognosis of patients with sepsis.
    Aim: To explore the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), serum creatinine (Scr), and other indicators in the early diagnosis of septic AKI.
    Methods: Ninety patients with sepsis during hospitalization at Tongji Hospital of Tongji University were recruited as subjects. Each patient was recorded with relevant basic data, clinical indicators, and CEUS results. The patients were divided into AKI group and non-AKI group according to the results of renal function diagnosis after 48 h. On the 7
    Results: Systemic inflammatory response score (2.58 ± 0.75), blood lactic acid (3.01 ± 1.33 mmol/L), Scr (141.82 ± 27.19 μmol/L), blood urea nitrogen (4.41 ± 0.81mmol/L), and rise time (10.23 ± 2.63 s) in the AKI group were higher than those in the non-AKI group. Peak intensity (PI) (10.78 ± 3.98 dB) and wash in slope (WIS) (1.07 ± 0.53 dB/s) were lower than those in the non-AKI group. The differences were statistically significant (
    Conclusion: The combination of Scr, PI, and WIS can improve the diagnostic accuracy of septic AKI. PI and WIS are expected to predict the occurrence of early septic AKI.
