Methods The clinical data of 70 patients with superficial soft tissue masses from January to November 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. Superficial soft tissue masses was diagnosed by the surgery and biopsy. The sonographic features, including the location, morphology, size, internal echo, boundary, relationship with peripheral tissues, longitude to transverse ratio (L/T), and the vascularity, were observed. Results The results of sonographic examination showed that 100% superficial masses could be found. Benign masses included lipoma, sebaceous cysts, synovial cysts, nerve sheath tumors, haemangioma, foreign body granulomas, etc. Malignant soft tissue tumors included fibrous sarcoma and metastatic neoplasms. Conclusion Color Doppler ultrasonography can precisely diagnose the presence, localization and the physical characters of superficial soft tissue masses. It is an excellent modality to diagnose the benign or malignant masses by analyzing the boundary, configuration, internal echo and vascularity of the masses.
Mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase is the key enzyme of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation reaction.The down-regulation of the mitochondrial ATP synthase is a hallmark of most human carcinomas, which is the embodiment of the bioenergetic signature of cancer in the performance of the decreased oxidative phosphorylation and increased aerobic glycolysis. Combining with the bioenergetic signature of cancer, studies showed that mitochondrial ATP synthase and multidrug resistance and adverse prognosis of tumor were closely related. Its mechanisms are related to post-transcriptional regulation of the ATP synthase,the hypermethylation of the ATP synthase gene and the inhibitor peptide of the mitochondrial ATP synthase, called ATP synthase inhibitory factor 1(IF1). In this review, we stress the biological characteristics of mitochondrial ATP synthase and the relationship between ATP synthase and multidrug resistance and prognosis of Malignant tumor, in order to find a new way for tumor therapy.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of short-time hyperoxia ventilation on lung tissue and pulmonary surfactant proteins C and D (SP-C and SP-D) in rats.MethodsSixteen male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups (n=8): hyperoxia group (FiO2=0.90), air group (FiO2=0.21). Tracheal intubations were administrated after anesthesia, and rats in two groups were exposed hyperoxia or air ventilation for 4 h. At the same time, carotid artery blood gas was analyzed after 2 h and 4 h of ventilation, then oxygenation index (OI) was calculated. Four hours later, the anterior lobe of right lung was taken to observe the pathological change and the injury level was scored. The middle lobe of right lung was prepared for making tissue homogenate, and the remaining part of the lung was used to measure the wet/dry weight (W/D) ratio. The bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was prepared in left lung. The content of SP-C and SP-D were detected in lung tissue homogenate and BALF by ELISA.ResultsComparing with hyperoxia group, the arterial partial pressure of oxygen, lung histopathology score and lung W/D ratio in air group were significantly increased (P<0.05), but OI, the content of SP-C and SP-D in lung tissue homogenate and BALF were significantly decreased (P<0.05).ConclusionHyperoxia ventilation for 4 h in rats can cause lung injury histologically, and reduce the concentration of SP-C and SP-D apparently in the lungs.
ObjectivesTo systematically review the efficacy and safety of escitalopram in the prevention of post-stroke depression (PSD).MethodsPubMed, The Cochrane Library, CBM, WanFang Data, VIP and CNKI databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on escitalopram in preventing PSD from inception to March 2019. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software.ResultsA total of 6 RCTs involving 891 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: compared with the control group, the escitalopram group could reduce the incidence of PSD (RR=0.55, 95%CI 0.31 to 0.98, P=0.04). In addition, there was no statistical difference between escitalopram group and control group in rate of adverse events (P≥0.05).ConclusionsCurrent evidence shows that escitalopram can reduce the incidence of PSD without increasing the incidence of adverse reactions. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify above conclusions.
