Objective To investigate the role of expression in the differential diagnosis of thyroid follicular carcinoma and follicular variant of papillary carcinoma. Methods Seventy cases of thyroid lesions (including 15 cases of follicular adenomas, 15 cases of adinomatous goiters, 30 cases of papillary carcinomas and 10 cases of follicular carcinomas) were collected, and CD10 expression was detected by means of immunohistochemistry in above thyroid lesions. Results Seven of 9 cases of follicular variant of papillary carcinoma were CD10 positive (77.8%), and 8 of 10 cases of follicular carcinoma were CD10 positive (80.0%). However, CD10 was negative in all cases of non-follicular variant of papillary carcinoma, follicular adenoma, adinomatous goiter and normal thyroid tissue. Conclusion The detection of CD10 expression is useful to the differential diagnosis of thyroid follicular carcinoma and follicular variant of papillary carcinoma.
【Abstract】Objective To compare the reliability of serum tumour specific growth factor (TSGF) with carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in the diagnosis of tumour. Methods The patients were divided into two groups according to malignancy and benignity. In benignity, the patients were subdivided into inflammatory and non-inflammatory groups. The levels of TSGF and CEA in the two groups were measured. Results The positive rate of TSGF and CEA in malignant group was 67.41% and 38.84% respectively; that in benign was 24.56% and 2.63% respectively, in which the inflammatory group was 32.35% and 5.88% respectively, and in non-inflammatory group was 18.25% and 0% respectively. The positive rate of TSGF and CEA was higher in malignant than in benign group (P<0.005). The positive rate of TSGF was higher than CEA in malignant (P<0.005) and inflammatory group (P<0.005). Conclusion Serum TSGF is a useful blood marker in the diagnosis of patients with malignancy, and is a more sensitive and broad-spectrum marker than CEA for the diagnosis of tumours. CEA is more specific than TSGF for the diagnosis of tumours. Combined measurement both TSGF and CEA will enhance the diagnostic rate.
In order to observe the morphological feature and blood supply of the pedicled trapezius myocutaneous flap, dissection was carried out on 114 sides of 54 cadavers. It was demostrated that trapezius muscle had multiple sources for its blood supply, including (1) dorsal scapular artery; (2)transvers cervical artery; (3) occipital artery and (4)spinal perforating artery. The dorsal scapular artery may originate from the same stem with the transvers cervical artery (68.4%), or originate seperatly (31.6%). Thirteen patients had radical resection for malignant tumour of head and neck, and were combined with pedicled trapezius myocutaneous flap, in which 6 with upper trapezius myocutaneous flap and 7 with lower trapezius myocutaneous flap. The results were fairly good. the advantages and disadvantages of the lower and upper trapezius myocutaneous flaps as well as the pectorlis major myocutaneous flap were discussed.
Twohundrednineteen orofaciomaxillary tumours, 18 benigns and 201 malignancies, were repaired by pectoralis major myocutaneous flaps following their resections. The types of flaps used in the repair were: single island myocutaneous flaps in 201 cases, doubleisland myocutaneous flaps in 16 cases, and myocutan eous skeletal flaps in 2 cases. The results were susscessful in 201 cases and failure in 18. The advantages and indications of using pectoralis major myocutaneous flaps were discussed. The method of design and its relevent surgical thechniques were introduced, and the factors responsible for the success and failure were analyzed. It is noted that the correct and meticulous operative techniques were the main factors leading to operative success.
【Abstract】ObjectiveTo explore the changes of colon motility of the rats in multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) induced bacterial peritonitis and the effects of IL6, TNFα and induce nitricoxide synthase (iNOS) on colon motility. MethodsWistar rats were divided into two groups, which were the control group and the MODS group. The number of stool, the amplitude changes of circular smooth muscle strip, the length of smooth muscle cell, and the changes of serum NO in two groups were observed. The expressions of IL6, TNFα and iNOS protein and IL6 mRNA, TNFα mRNA and iNOS mRNA in distal colon were investigated by using immunohistochemical methods and RTPCR. ResultsThe numbers of stool and the amplitude in the MODS group were lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). The expressions of IL6, TNFα and iNOS were negative in the control group, while they were positive in the MODS group. IL6 mRNA,TNFα mRNA and iNOS mRNA were negative expression in the control group, but they were positive expression in the MODS group. The concentration of serum NO and the length of smooth muscle cells in the MODS group were higher than those of the control group (P<0.01). ConclusionColon motor dysfunction of the rats is related to the iNOS, IL6 and TNFα.
【Abstract】ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between galectin-3 and tumour metastasis, and the future prospect of galectin-3 in clinic.MethodsRelated articles were reviewed. ResultsGalectin-3, a member of the β-galactoside-binding proteins, is expressed widely in epithelial and immune cells, and interacts with intracellular glycoproteins, cell surface molecules and extracellular matrix proteins. Galectin-3 is involved in various biological phenomena including cell growth, adhesion, differentiation, angiogenesis and apoptosis, and is associated with invasion and metastasis of tumour. ConclusionBecause of the correlation between galectin-3 and tumour invasion and metastasis, galectin-3 may act as the diagnostic marker for tumour metastasis and one of the target proteins for cancer treatment.
Objective To investigate the effect of tumor suppressor gene on tumourigenesis in multiple primary malignant neoplasm (MPMN).Methods The retrospective analysis was used to summarize several common tumor suppressor genes correlation to MPMN. Results At current study of the tumor suppressor genes, the common genes studied in MPMN were p53, APC, p16, BRCA1, BRCA2 and PTEN/MMAC1, etc. The same mutation of tumor suppressor genes could be detected from PMNNs. Conclusion There are significant relations between MPMN and inactivation of tumor suppressor gene. By the study of tumor suppressor gene, it can reveal some common rules of tumourigenesis of MPMN.
Surgery is an important method for the treatment of malignant tumors. Sevoflurane is one of the most common general anesthetics, which can directly or indirectly affect the biological behavior of cells and the immune function of tumor patients, thereby affecting the recurrence and metastasis of tumor patients after surgery. From the aspects of microRNA, matrix metalloproteinase, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/Akt signaling pathway and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α, this article summarizes the molecular mechanisms of sevoflurane affecting the biological behavior of tumor cells, and clarifies the regulation mechanism of sevoflurane on the immune function of tumor patients. It is expected to provide a theoretical basis for precise anesthesia for tumor patients, and to provide medication basis for reducing postoperative recurrence and metastasis of tumor patients.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the renal adverse reactions of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). MethodsPubMed, EMbase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, WanFang Data and CBM databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the incidence of renal adverse reactions of TKI from inception to March 30, 2023. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by using RevMan 5.4 software. ResultsA total of 19 RCTs involving 10 141 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that compared with placebo or blank control, gefitinib, ranvartinib, cabotinib, vandetanib, pazopanib, arotinib, apatinib, and acitinib could lead to an increased risk of proteinuria events, while sildenib did not increase the risk of proteinuria in patients. Anlotinib could increase the risk of hematuria. Vandetanil increased the risk of acute kidney injury. Gefitinib, ranvartinib and apatinib could increase the risk of grade 3-4 renal adverse reactions. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that TKI drugs may cause renal damage in patients, and proteinuria is the most common. Vandetanil can cause acute kidney injury, gefitinib, ranvartinib and apatinib are more nephrotoxic. The renal adverse reactions of neratinib, ibutinib and sildenib are relatively few.
