Effect of regional lymph node diameter on postoperative recurrence in pancreatic cancer patients / 国际肿瘤学杂志

Objective:To investigate the effect of the average diameter of regional lymph node on tumor recurrence after operation of pancreatic head adenocarcinoma without lymph node metastasis.Methods:Clinical data of 49 patients with pancreatic head adenocarcinoma admitted to the 909th Hospital of Joint Logistic Support Force from January 2017 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the average regional lymph node diameter for predicting the optimal threshold of tumor recurrence. The relationship between the average diameter of regional lymph nodes, recurrence and clinicopathological features were analyzed. The influencing factors of tumor recurrence 3 years after surgery were analyzed by logistic regression.Results:All 49 patients with pancreatic head adenocarcinoma were divided into a relapse group ( n=29) and a no-recurrence group ( n=20) based on whether the tumor recurred or not, and the recurrence rate was 59.18%. ROC curve analysis showed that the best threshold of average regional lymph node diameter for predicting tumor recurrence was 0.635 cm, the area under the curve was 0.82, the sensitivity was 0.69, and the specificity was 0.85. The average diameter of regional lymph nodes increased in patients with tumor diameter ≥2 cm ( t=-2.12, P=0.040), tumor with moderate and poorly differentiation ( t=-2.24, P=0.013), vascular invasion ( t=-3.47, P=0.001), nerve invasion ( t=-3.75, P<0.001), capsular invasion ( t=-4.25, P<0.001), and tumor recurrence ( t=-4.42, P<0.001). Univariate analysis showed that tumor diameter ( χ2=5.98, P=0.015), tumor stage ( χ2=3.88, P=0.049), tumor differentiation ( χ2=5.98, P=0.015), vascular invasion ( χ2=3.84, P=0.050), capsular invasion ( χ2=5.79, P=0.016), average lymph node diameter ( χ2=15.61, P<0.001), and postoperative chemotherapy ( χ2=3.89, P=0.049) were all related to whether the tumor recurred or not in patients with pancreatic head adenocarcinoma 3 years after surgery. Multivariate analysis results showed that tumor diameter ≥2 cm ( OR=2.72, 95% CI: 1.46-11.28, P=0.016), tumor with moderate and poorly differentiation ( OR=2.22, 95% CI: 1.23-6.53, P=0.020), capsular invasion ( OR=2.30, 95% CI: 2.19-8.91, P=0.017), and average lymph node diameter ≥0.635 cm ( OR=7.93, 95% CI: 1.25-50.31, P=0.002) were all independent influencing factors for tumor recurrence in pancreatic head adenocarcinoma patients 3 years after surgery. Conclusion:In patients with pancreatic head adenocarcinoma without lymph node metastasis, tumor diameter ≥2 cm, tumor with moderate and poorly differentiation, capsular invasion and average lymph node diameter ≥0.635 cm are independent risk factors for postoperative tumor recurrence. Patients with the average diameter of regional lymph nodes ≥0.635 cm increase the possibility of tumor recurrence after surgery, which can be used as the basis for postoperative evaluation and has certain clinical application value.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) with laparotomy in the treatment of severe liver injury.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 48 patients with severe liver injury admitted to 909th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force (Affiliated Dongnan Hospital of Xianmen University Medical College) from December 2013 to June 2020, including 28 males and 20 females; aged 16-75 years [(45.7±6.2)years]. There were 25 patients with grade III, 15 grade IV and 8 grade V according to the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) classification. After general treatments such as infusion and hemostasis, TAE was performed in 26 patients (TAE group) and laparotomy in 22 patients (laparotomy group). The operation time and length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups. Erythrocyte, hemoglobin and serum creatinine were compared before operation and at postoperative 1 day. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were analyzed before operation and at postoperative 1, 3, 7 days. Complications were observed.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-60 months [(17.1±9.1)months]. The operation time and length of hospital stay were (65.7±9.2)minutes and (21.6±6.6)days in TAE group, significantly shorter than (162.5±28.1)minutes and (31.5±7.4)days in laparotomy group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). There was no significant difference between the two groups referring to erythrocyte, hemoglobin and serum creatinine before operation and at postoperative 1 day (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in ALT and AST between the two groups before operation (all P>0.05). TAE group showed ALT level of 1 154(884, 1 698)U/L, (975.3±400.9)U/L and (403.4±232.9)U/L at postoperative 1, 3, 7 days, significantly lower than 2 053(1 965, 2 132)U/L, (1 604.1±188.2)U/L and (915.3±160.5)U/L in laparotomy group (all P<0.05). TAE group showed AST level of (1 313.2±542.0)U/L, 525(302, 971)U/L and 174(84, 324)U/L at postoperative 1, 3, 7 days, significantly lower than (1 962.9±245.4)U/L, 1 478(1 089, 1 677)U/L and 837(674, 1 006)U/L in laparotomy group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). The complication rate was 26.9% (7/26) in TAE group, significantly lower than 59.1% (13/22) in laparotomy group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:For severe liver injury, TAE can significantly shorten operation time and length of hospital stay, accelerate the recovery of liver function and reduce the complication rate in comparison with laparotomy.

Objective:To investigate the circadian rhythm of blood pressure and morning blood pressure surge (MBPS) in children with neurally mediated syncope (NMS).Methods:From July 2018 to June 2019, 135 cases [aged 3-16 years old (10.12±2.53) years old, with 74 males and 61 females] with unexplained syncope, presyncope, and symptoms such as headache, dizziness, chest pain, and chest tightness were collected in the Second Xiangya Hospital, Central South University for the first time.The 24 hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (24 h ABPM) was completed on the same day of the head-up tilt test (HUTT). Patients were divided into HUTT negative and positive groups, and dippers and non-dippers groups. MBPS (sleep-trough surge) was calculated and compared respectively.Results:(1) There were 51 patients in the HUTT positive group, including 27 patients with vasovagal syncope, 23 patients with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, and 1 patient with orthostatic hypotension. In HUTT positive group, there were 22 cases (43.14%) of dippers and 29 cases of non-dippers.There were 84 patients in the HUTT negative group, there were 32 cases (38.10%) of dippers and 52 cases of non-dippers. There were no statistical significances in the dipper proportion between HUTT positive and negative group ( χ2=1.305, P>0.05). (2) Sleep-trough systolic blood pressure (SBP) surge was 1-45 mmHg [(15.97±8.03) mmHg](1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), and sleep-trough diastolic blood pressure (DBP) surge was -6-43 mmHg[(14.05±7.97) mmHg]. There were no statistical significances in sleep-trough surge between the HUTT negative and positive group (all P>0.05). (3) The age in the dipper group was higher than that in the non-dipper group [(10.72±2.20) years old vs. (9.72±2.66) years old, t=2.288, P<0.05]. The daytime average SBP [(110.20±8.33) mmHg vs.(105.54±7.51) mmHg, t=3.381, P<0.01], and morning peak SBP [(109.99±10.19) mmHg vs.(106.63±8.71) mmHg, t=2.045, P<0.05] of the dipper group were higher than those of the non-dipper group.The nighttime average SBP[(95.41±7.50) mmHg vs.(98.59±6.88) mmHg, t=2.540, P<0.01], nighttime average DBP[(48.61±4.52) mmHg vs.(52.28±4.65) mmHg, t=4.547, P<0.01], nocturnal minimum SBP[(89.62±8.18) mmHg vs.(93.60±7.38) mmHg, t=2.940, P<0.01], and nocturnal minimum DBP[(44.99±5.32) mmHg vs.(49.01±5.54) mmHg, t=4.205, P<0.01] of the dipper group were lower than that of the non-dipper group.Nocturnal SBP reduction rate [(13.42±2.68)% vs.(6.48±2.49)%, t=15.384, P<0.01], nocturnal DBP reduction rate[(19.98±4.92)% vs.(12.46±5.05)%, t=8.561, P<0.01], sleep-trough SBP surge[(20.37±8.30) mmHg vs.(13.03±6.36) mmHg, t=5.800, P<0.01], and sleep-trough DBP surge[(16.91±8.06) mmHg vs.(12.13±7.36) mmHg, t=3.554, P<0.01] of the dipper group were higher than those of the non-dipper group. Conclusions:Nocturnal blood pressure reduction and sleep-trough surge decreased in NMS children, and there is a circadian rhythm disorder of blood pressure.

Preliminary study of the clinical value of colposcopy in diagnosing vagina invasion in cervical cancer / 中华妇产科杂志

Objective:To explore the preliminary clinical values of colposcopy in the diagnosis of vaginal invasion in cervical cancer.Methods:A retrospective review of the clinical records of patients (31 cases) with cervical cancer treated in Xuzhou Cancer Hospital from April 2015 to August 2019. For those with early-stage cervical cancer and the vagina invasion being difficult to be determined, those with advanced cervical cancer and the scope of vaginal invasion being difficult to be judged, and those with obvious vaginal tumor and underexposed cervix or inconspicuous cervical lesion and the primary location needing to be identified, colposcopy-guided vaginal and cervix biopsy were performed before treatment.Results:(1) Image characteristics of colposcopy and pathological diagnosis: among 31 cases, 30 of them had the similar images of vagina and cervix. The images were dense acetowhite and (or) thick mosaic, coarse punctate and atypical vessels. Lugol′s staining was uniformly bright yellow or brown. Pathological biopsy of vaginal wall: 27 cases were metastatic carcinoma, 3 cases were vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VaIN) Ⅱ-Ⅲ. One case showed dense acetowhite epithelium and atypical vessels image in cervix and thin acetowhite epithelium in upper 1/3 vagina which disappeared in two minutes; the results of vaginal biopsy was chronic inflammation. (2) Vaginal invasion diagnosed by colposcopy: among 31 cases, 14 of them without invasion of uterine side, vaginal invasion was judged as followed by colposcopy, being consistent with biopsy: 1 case of chronic vaginitis, 2 cases VaINⅡ, 1 case VaINⅢ, 6 cases upper 1/3 vagina invasion, 4 cases lower 1/3 vagina invasion. Among 10 cases with invasion of uterine side, vaginal invasion were identified by colposcopy, being consistent with biopsy: 4 cases upper 1/3 vagina invasion and 6 cases upper 1/2 vagina invasion. Five cases who had clinical diagnosis of vaginal cancer were diagnosed as cervical cancer with vaginal invasion by colposcopy, being consistent with biopsy. Two cases with no obvious lesions of cervix and vagina were diagnosed as cervical cancer with vaginal invasion by colposcopy, being consistent with cervical and vaginal biopsy: 1 case with stage Ⅳ (transfer to the left supraclavicular lymph node) and 1 case with stage Ⅱ a1.Conclusions:Colposcopy and multi-point biopsy have complementary diagnostic value for the cervical cancer cases that the invasion and scope of vagina are difficult to be determined by physical examination and (or) imaging examination. Thus the range of vaginal resection for patients underwent operation and the lower boundary of pelvic radiation field for those underwent radiotherapy could be fixed, so as to make the treatment much more individualized and humanized; the indications need further discussion.

All the patients received orbital tumor dissection or biopsy, then received radiation therapy. Three patients received chemotherapy with CHOP protocol before radiotherapy. Radiotherapy was delivered routinely with 3D-conformal radiation therapy (CRT) technique with daily 2-2.5 Gy for 5 times per week and 3-5 fields. Total dosage was 20-50 Gy. There were 18 cases of 30 Gy, 1 case of 22 Gy, 1 case of 25 Gy, 1 case of 20 Gy, 1 case of 28.8 Gy, 3 cases of 40 Gy, 1 case of 42 Gy, 1 case of 46 Gy and 1 case of 50 Gy.@*Results@#All the patients had complete remission (CR) after radiotherapy during follow-up. One patient recurred after radiotherapy of 4 months and received CR with radiotherapy again. One patient died of lung infiltration. Acute complications during radiotherapy were conjunctivitis (28 cases, 100.0%) and keratitis (1 case, 3.6%), long-term complications with ophthalmoxerosis (10 cases, 35.7%) and decreased visual acuity (1 case, 3.6%).@*Conclusion@#Radiotherapy is an effective method for primary orbital lymphoma, and the adverse reactions can be tolerated for most patients.

Clinical analysis of 128 cases of cervical lesion diagnosed by multi-point biopsy of colposcopy and endocervical curettage / 中华肿瘤杂志

Objective@#To investigate the clinical values of colposcopy and cervical biopsy and/or endocervical curettage (ECC) in the diagnosis of cervical lesion.@*Methods@#Clinical data of 128 cases of cervical lesion diagnosed by Xuzhou Cancer Hospital from January 23, 2014 to October 11, 2016 were collected and retrospectively analyzed, all patients underwent colposcopy and cervical biopsy and/or ECC.@*Results@#Among them, the age between 30 to 50 years old were 70 cases, whose transformation zone types of Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ were 28 cases (40.0%), 23 cases (32.9%) and 19 cases (27.1%), respectively. The age older than 50 years were 45 cases, whose transformation zone types of Ⅱ and Ⅲ were 1 case (2.2%) and 44 cases (97.8%), respectively. Among the 128 cases of cervical lesions, diagnostic results of colposcopy showed that the chronic inflammation were 57 cases, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)Ⅰwere 35 cases, CINⅡor CINⅡ~Ⅲ were 8 cases, CIN Ⅲ were 5 cases and cervical cancer were 23 cases. Alternatively, the pathological results showed that the chronic inflammation were 81 cases, CINⅠwere 17 cases, CINⅡor CINⅡ~Ⅲ were 7 cases, CIN Ⅲ were 5 cases and cervical cancer were 18 cases, respectively. Among the 81 cases of chronic inflammation diagnosed by pathology, 52 cases (64.2%) were consistent with the diagnostic results of colposcopy. Among the 17 cases of low grade squamous epithelial cell lesion (LSIL) diagnosed by pathology, 10 cases were in agree with the diagnostic results of colposcopy. Among the 12 cases of high-grade squamous epithelial cell lesion (HSIL) diagnosed by pathology, 9 cases were concordant with the diagnostic results of colposcopy. Among the 18 cases of cervical cancer diagnosed by pathology, 17 cases were consistent with the diagnostic results of colposcopy.@*Conclusions@#The type of transformation zone is positively correlated with the age, and it can help to choose biopsy and therapeutic manner. The diagnostic accuracies of HSIL and early stage of cervical cancer by multi-point biopsy of colposcopy and/or ECC are high.

AIM:To investigate the effects of icarⅡn on the viability, migration and invasion of the prostate cancer lines Du145 and PC3.METHODS:Du145 cells and PC3 cells were treated with icarⅡn at different concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20, 40 or 80 μmol/L), and the cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay.The cell migration and invasion abilities were detected by Transwell assay.The protein expression of Notch-1, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, MMP-9 and hairy/enhancer of split-1 (Hes-1) was determined by Western blot.RESULTS:The results of MTT assay revealed that icarⅡn inhibited the viabilitiy of Du145 cells and PC3 cells in a dose-dependent manner.The maximal effect was at dose of 40 μmol/L.IcarⅡn treatment significantly decreased the abilities of migration and invasion of Du145 cells and PC-3 cells.Moreover, the protein expression of Notch-1, MMP-2, MMP-9 and Hes-1 was dramatically reduced after icarⅡn treatment.CONCLUSION:IcarⅡn inhibits prostate cancer cell viability, migration and invasion by decreasing the protein expression of Notch-1, MMP-2, MMP-9 and Hes-1.

Mechanism of low-dose ketamine-induced reduction of cognitive dysfunction following sevoflurane anesthesia in aged rats: plasticity of dendritic spines in entorhinal cortical neurons / 中华麻醉学杂志

Objective To investigate the relationship between the plasticity of dendritic spines in entorhinal cortical neurons and mechanism of low-dose ketamine-induced reduction of cognitive dysfunction following sevoflurane anesthesia in aged rats.Methods Thirty-six pathogen-free healthy male SpragueDawley rats,aged 18 months,weighing 500-600 g,were divided into 3 groups (n=12 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),sevoflurane anesthesia group (group Sev) and ketamine group (group K).Group C received no treatment.Group Sev inhaled the mixture of air (flow rate 1 L/min) and 3.6％ sevoflurane for 3 h.In group K,ketamine 10 mg/kg was injected intraperitoneally,and 5 min later the mixture of air (flow rate 1 L/min) and 3.6％ sevoflurane was inhaled for 3 h.Open field test and Morris water maze test were performed 3 days after anesthesia.After the behavioral tests,the animals were sacrificed,and their brains were removed and cut into sections for determination of the density of neurons,density of dendritic spines,and expression of postsynaptic density protein-95 (PSD-95) and synaptophysin (SY38) in superficial laminaes (Ⅱ-Ⅲ) of entorhinal cortex using Nissl's staining,Golgi staining and immunohistochemistry,respectively.Results Compared with group C,the time of staying at the central region was significantly shortened,the escape latency was prolonged,the density of dendritic spines was decreased,and the expression of PSD-95 and SY38 was down-regulated in group Sev (P＜0.05).Compared with group Sev,the time of staying at the central region was significantly prolonged,the escape latency was shortened,the density of dendritic spines was increased,and the expression of PSD-95 and SY38 was upregulated in group K (P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in the density of neurons in entorhinal cortex between the three groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which low-dose ketamine attenuates cognitive dysfunction induced by sevoflurane anesthesia may be related to the enhanced plasticity of dendritic spines in entorhinal cortical neurons of aged rats.

Regulation of developmental and environmental signaling by interaction between microtubules and membranes in plant cells

Cell division and expansion require the ordered arrangement of microtubules, which are subject to spatial and temporal modifications by developmental and environmental factors. Understanding how signals translate to changes in cortical microtubule organization is of fundamental importance. A defining feature of the cortical microtubule array is its association with the plasma membrane; modules of the plasma membrane are thought to play important roles in the mediation of microtubule organization. In this review, we highlight advances in research on the regulation of cortical microtubule organization by membrane-associated and membrane-tethered proteins and lipids in response to phytohormones and stress. The transmembrane kinase receptor Rho-like guanosine triphosphatase, phospholipase D, phosphatidic acid, and phosphoinositides are discussed with a focus on their roles in microtubule organization.

Comparison of surgical site infection between laparoscopic distal gastrectomy and open distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer:A Meta-analysis / 中国内镜杂志

Objective To compare the differences of surgical site infection (SSI) between laparoscopic distal gas-trectomy (LDG) and open distal gastrectomy (ODG) for gastric cancer. Methods We set up strict inclusion and ex-clusion criteria. All the randomized controlled trials (RCT) on LDG and ODG for gastric cancer were collected. Meta-analysis was performed according to the recommendation by the Cochrane handbook. Results Six RCTs in-cluding 767 patients were analyzed, who were divided into LDG group (n =394) and ODG group ( n=373). Postop-erative wound infection and SSI were significantly lower in LDG than in ODG [RR=0.32, 95 %Cl (0.11, 0.91).P =0.03; RR= 0.28, 95 %Cl (0.12, 0.70),P =0.006]. There was no significant difference in intra-abdominal abscess between the two groups [RR=0.35, 95 % Cl (0.09, 1.31), P=0.12]. Conclusions LDG was associated with a lower incidence of SSI, especially wound infection, as compared with ODG in the meta-analysis.
