RESUMEN
Objective@#To investigate the current situation of obesity and related metabolic abnormalities among preschool children, so as to provide theoretical support for future intervention.@*Methods@#A cohort of 3 952 children, born in Tianjin and enrolled in the kindergarten from September 2017 to October 2018, were selected to conduct a baseline survey and a three-year follow-up (questionnaire survey, physical examination and laboratory testing). At the same time, a two-way cohort study was conducted to retrospectively collect maternal prenatal examination, delivery and regular physical examination information of children from birth to preschool age from Tianjin Maternal and Child Health Information System.@*Results@#A total of 3 935, 3 654 and 2 739 children completed the follow up in the primary, middle and senior classes of kindergarten respectively. The height and weight of pre-school children increased with age, while the percentage of body fat decreased with age ( β-trend =-0.74, P <0.01). During three-year follow up, height, weight and body mass index of boys were higher than girls (P<0.05), while the percentage of body fat was lower than girls (primary class: 17.5%,18.5%; middle class: 16.4%,17.2%; senior class: 16.1%,17.1%, P <0.05). The detection rate of overweight (including obesity) and obesity increased with age( χ 2 trend were 15.51,38.72, P <0.05). The total detection rate of obesity increased from 5.4% at the baseline level to 9.6%. Laboratory test results showed that the detection rates of fasting blood glucose of boys were higher than that of girls in primary class, but blood lipid abnormalities were in the opposite (glucose: 7.7%, 4.8 %; lipid: 23.8% , 27.7%)( χ 2=12.01, 6.63, P <0.05).@*Conclusion@#The study has established a large growth cohort starting from the early embryonic stage, which will help to establish the strategies to promote children s health and prevent obesity and chronic diseases from multidimensional perspectives.
RESUMEN
Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological features of sinonasal primary secretory carcinoma (SC) and its diagnosis, differential diagnosis. Methods Two cases of sin-nasal SC were analyzed by light microscopy with immunohisto-chemical staining (EnVision) for CK, vimentin, S-100 protein, SOX10, PAS, DPAS, Mamaglobin, Calponin, DOG1, p63 and molecular detection of ETV6 gene break. Results Morphologically, SC revealed varying proportions of solid, tubular, acinar, microcystic, tubular growth patterns. All SC cases were cytological low grade with uniform cells, small-to medium-sizes nuclei, occasional small nucleoli, and abundant pink, bubbly cytoplasm. Mitotic figures were rarely encountered. Tumor cells secreted eosinophilic, colloid-like secretions that were PAS positive. There were no DPAS positive zymogen granules in cyto-plasm. This tumor cells were CK, vimentin, S-100, SOX10, PAS positive and Mamaglobin, Calponin and p63 negative. The ETV6 gene rearrangement was confirmed in all cases by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). After excision, all two patients were survival without tumor recurrence for 41 months and53 months. Conclusion Sinonasal primary SC is a low grade malignant tumor. The histological features of SC are overlap with other salivary gland tumors. Immunohistochemical analysis and FISH are useful for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the source of the fine particulate matter (PM(2.5)) in the sarcoidosis granulomatous cell and the relationship between the sarcoidosis and the PM(2.5) in the atmosphere.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Paraffin-embedded tissues of 50 cases of human sarcoidosis biopsy samples, 10 cases of non-sarcoidosis autopsy lung samples, 18 cases of lung tissues (with granulomatous lesions) of rats exposed to PM(2.5) by bronchial infusion, and the free PM(2.5) sample in the atmosphere were collected. The characteristics of tissues above mentioned were observed under the light microscopy, which stained by HE staining and Warthin-Starry silver staining. The characteristics of the PM(2.5) in the four groups were analyzed using confocal Raman microscopy. The component of the PM(2.5) in the sarcoidosis granuloma was analyzed using transmission electron microscope-energy dispersive X-ray detector (TEM-EDX), and the component of the PM(2.5) in the atmosphere was analyzed with X-ray fluorescence separately.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The PM(2.5) in the four groups have the similar Raman spectrum, they share the feature of carbonaceous composition, the element component of PM(2.5) in the human sarcoidosis was the same as PM(2.5) in the atmosphere.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The study provided the further evidence that the PM(2.5) in the sarcoidosis lesion was from PM(2.5) in the atmosphere, and it should be not excepted that sarcoidosis may be a sensitive individual reaction to the PM(2.5) inhaled from the atmosphere.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate unusual pathological features of olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) and its correlation with the clinical prognosis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Totally 40 cases of ONB were studied using histology and immunohistochemistry techniques. All the cases of ONB were graded according to Hyams Grading system.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>ONB consisted of small round tumor cells growing in nests or lobules separated by fibrovascular septa. Characteristically, there were neurofibrillary intercellular matrices and Homer-Wright or Flexner-Wintersteiner rosette formation. The unusual structures including epithelial components such as mucous or squamous cell nests which were found in 45.0% (18/40), and 15.0% (6/40) respectively. In addition, 3 cases showed an in-situ form with invasion of tumor into olfactory epithelium, and there was exogenous papillary proliferation seen in 2 cases. Log-rank survival analysis demonstrated that Hyams Grading had no statistical correlation with the prognosis. The presence of necrosis was correlated with a poor prognosis (P = 0.016) while the presence of mucous cells was correlated with a good prognosis (P = 0.011).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Unusual pathological structures including epithelial structures, in-situ invasion of tumor tissue into the involving olfactory epithelium and exogenous papillary proliferation can be found in ONB, suggesting that ONB may originate from the undifferentiated basal cells of olfactory epithelium, through bipotential differentiation. The presence of tumor necrosis in ONB is a poor prognostic indicator while the presence of mucous cells suggests a good prognosis.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe the histopathological changes of the lung of rats which exposed to the suspension of PM(2.5) and detect the effect of silver staining showing dust particles deposited in the lungs.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The dissociative PM(2.5) of Beijing city was collected to make suspension. The rats were divided into different groups and exposed to different dosage of PM(2.5) (0.3 mg/0.2 ml per rat, 0.75 mg/0.2 ml per rat, 2 mg/0.2 ml per rat) by intratracheal instillation every week. These rats were sacrificed at 4, 12 weeks and 24 weeks (total dosage: 7.2 mg per rat, 18 mg per rat, 48 mg per rat) after the treatment, and their lungs were sampled. The pathological varieties and the situation of these rats' lungs were observed macroscopically and using hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, Warthin-Starry (WS) silver stain, as well as the transmission electron microscope (TEM). The dust particles in these rats' lungs were observed by x-ray spectrum chemical element analysis (X-RSA). The granulomatous lesion in the lungs of the rats was counted, and the deposition degree, integrated optical density (IOD) value and integrated area density (IAD) value of the dust particles deposited in the lungs were measured. The variance, least significance difference, and the unitary linear related and regression were analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The number of the granulomatous lesion in the lungs of the rats became more and more with time. In WS staining the dust particles were dark brown and became clearer. The IOD and IAD value of these dust particles were much higher in WS staining than that in HE staining (P < 0.05). The IOD value of the dust particles was positively correlated with the number of the granulomatous lesion (R = 0.639, P < 0.01). The ultrastructure of the dust particles in the rats' lungs and the dissociative PM(2.5) was basically same in TEM. Their main compositions were similar, by X-RSA, and both of them were silicon.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The suspension of PM(2.5) could result in the granulomatous lesion in the lung of rats. WS silver staining is a good method to show PM(2.5) phagocytized by macrophage, and is better than HE staining.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate histomorphological feature of silicotic nodules under Warthin-Starry (WS) silver staining and its value in the histopathological examination.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Six cases with silicosis obtained by autopsy and 21 cases with sarcoidosis were collected (among which 3 cases were obtained by autopsy and 18 cases were obtained by biopsy). The serial sections of those paraffin embedded samples were applied respectively for (1) hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, (2) WS staining, (3) streptomyces avidin-peroxidase (SP) immunohistochemical staining for mouse anti-human CD68 monoclonal antibody, (4) observing under transmission electron microscope (TEM), (5) X-ray spectrum chemical element analysis(X-RSA). The emphasis of observation and analysis were the dust particles in silicotic nodules and granulomas cells (dust cells, epithelioid cells and multinucleated giant cells in the granulomas). The dust particles deposit in the granulomas were graded under the HE and WS staining.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Under the HE staining the dust particles deposit degrees were (+++) in cellular silicotic nodules, (+) in the fibrous ones, and (-) in the sarcoid nodules; under the WS staining and the dust particles deposit degrees were (+++) in both silicotic nodules whose dust particles were characteristically black, and (+/++) in sarcoid nodules. The dust particles deposit degrees in silicotic nodules were markedly higher than those in sarcoidosis (P < 0.01). The results of immunohistochemical staining indicated that the expression of CD68 in both cells of silicotic nodules and sarcoid nodules were positive. The positive degrees decreased successively with the content of the dust particles. The dust particles of silicotic nodules could be more readily observed than those of sarcoidosis in size and electronic density under TEM. The results of X-RSA indicated that the main chemical element in both dust particles was silicon.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>WS staining is better than HE staining in showing the dust particles of silicotic nodules, which appear characteristically black, especially in the fibrous ones. Together the TEM observation and X-RSA, the silicotic nodules may be prompted.</p>
