ABSTRACT
Objective To study the clinical features,pathological characters,treatment and prognosis of patients with malignant solitary fibrous tumor (MSFT).Methods Retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 11 MSFT patients undergoing surgical resection in Beijing Shijitan Hospital from Jan 2010 to Dec 2017.Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were assessed using Kaplan-Meier methods.Results One patient died of duodenal fistula within a month after surgery,and the other 10 patients recovered with no severe complications.Immunohistochemically,the tumor cells are all positive for CD34 (11/11) and vimentin (10/10) in a different degree.The median OS and DFS for the 10 patients were 49 and 26 months respectively.The 1-,3-,and 5-year OS rates were 89％,56％,42％ respectively.The 1-,3-,and 5-year DFS rates were 79％,34％,23％ respectively.Conclusion MSFT is a malignancy with high recurrence rate.Tumor recurrence was the main cause of death for patients with MSFT.
ABSTRACT
Objective · To investigate the status of depression and anxiety in patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) and the possible influence factors and to provide theoretical support for further psychological intervention. Methods · RSA patients and women with no history of RSA were invited to complete a questionnaire, including basic information, Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS). All data were analyzed by SPSS. Results · Of all 1064 cases included in this study, 725 were RSA cases, 217 cases with one spontaneous abortion and 122 in control group with no history of spontaneous abortion. Our results showed that both RSA patients and patients with one spontaneous abortion have significantly higher SDS and SAS scores than control group. Furthermore, non-pregnant RSA patients with lower education level, lower household income and 3-5 years of marriage have significantly higher levels of depression and anxiety. Patients with multiple miscarriages (≥4), history of induced abortion and no live birth, score significantly higher in SDS. Conclusion · Whether pregnant or not, RSA patients are much easier to become depressive and anxious, which may be associated with education level, household income, length of marriage, numbers of pregnancy losses and previous live birth. Women with one spontaneous abortion also show a significant higher tendency of depression and anxiety. These patients should be given proper psychological intervention if necessary.
ABSTRACT
Objective·To study the hemodynamic parameters of uterine at midluteal phase in patients with early recurrent spontaneous abortion (ERSA) and the effect of aspirin on them. Methods·Transvaginal color Doppler ultrasonography was used to measure the parameters of uterine blood flow and the endometrial thickness at midluteal phase of 271 women with ERSA (ERSA group) and 66 women without a history of recurrent spontaneous abortion (control group). Then ERSA group were administered with aspirin 50 mg/d orally for 2 months and other individualized treatment, and the effect of aspirin on parameters of uterine blood flow and the early pregnancy outcome of them were observed. Results·At midluteal phase, the endometrium was significantly thinner in ERSA group than that in control group. Pulsatility index (PI) of endometrial blood flow and mean PI (mPI), mean resistance index (mRI), and mean systolic/diastolic ratio value (mS/D) of uterine arteries were statistically significantly higher in ERSA group in comparison to control group (P<0.05). Following aspirin treatment, resistance to uterine blood flow reduced significantly in ERSA group (P=0.000), and the endometrial thickness increased in the patients with endometrial thickness less than 7 mm (P=0.000). Only 163 ERSA patients were re-examined by transvaginal color Doppler ultrasonography after aspirin treatment, among whom 136 women was pregnant after individualized treatment. Among these pregnant patients, 97 cases were pregnant for more than or equal to 12 weeks, while 10 cases aborted during the first 12 weeks, and the early pregnancy outcomes of the other 29 cases were still unclear. Conclusion·In comparison with normal fertile women, ERSA patients have significantly higher resistance to uterine blood flow and thinner endometrium. Aspirin can improve uterine blood perfusion, which improves early pregnancy outcome.
ABSTRACT
To test the hypothesis that the first degree relatives of Chinese women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) have higher risk of cardiovascular disease than those without PCOS.The metabolic phenotype and risks of cardiovascular disease were evaluated in 110 family members of 35 women with PCOS and 85 unrelated healthy control subjects without family history of diabetes and PCOS ( four age- and weight-matched subgroups ).The prevalence of impaired glucose tolerance was 51.4％ in mothers and 57.5％ in fathers with their daughters suffering from PCOS.The first degree relatives of PCOS women had significantly higher serum fasting insulin level,homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance,insulin area under the curve,and lower insulin sensitivity index in all subgroups than the control subjects( P＜0.05 ).The control subjects had significantly elevated high molecular weight-adiponectin levels and decreased high sensitive-C reactive protein levels compared to the first degree relatives of PCOS women in all subgroups.Parents and brothers,but not sisters,of women with PCOS had significantly higher total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol ( P＜ 0.05 ),as well as triglyceride levels ( P＜ 0.05 ),compared with control subjects.The first degree relatives of PCOS women had features of insulin resistance and increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate a simple effective way to salvage failure of lateral retinacular release. Methods From March 2007 to May 2009,there were 23 knees of 23 cases for failure after lateral retinacular. All the patients had patellofemoral joint malatignment in some extend,whose patellofemoral joint CT scanned in dynamic. Before curing,the index of patellar tilting angle (PTA) was 19.6° ±5.7° , congruence angle(CA) was 23.6° ± 12.5° , patellar femoral index(PFI)was 2.7 ± 0.8, and hospital special score (HSS) knee score was (74.0 ± 9.2) points,then put on elastic knee sleeves for arranging the malalignment of patellofemoral joints, coincidentally, rehabilitation of vastus medians administered. Results All the patients were followed up for 6 - 26 (11.0 ± 2.3 ) months, 22 cases of 24 knees gained the excellent or good results,1 case had to experience surgery again. After curing, PTA was 11.2° ±3.7°,CA was 6.4° ±7.8°, and PFI was 1.1 ±0.3,escalated HSS knee score was (87.0 ±6.5) points, in these excellent or good patellofemoral joints. Significant difference showed apparently in the cohort through curing (P <0.05). Conclusion Administering elastic knee sleeves along with correct rehabilitation is a simple effective no-incisive cure for salvaging failure of lateral retinacular release.
