Comparative Study of PD-L1 Expression in Different Sites of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer / 中国肺癌杂志

BACKGROUND@#The expression of programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) as a biomarker for immunotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is routinely detected in clinical pathology department. However, the spatial heterogeneity of PD-L1 expression in intrapulmonary tumors and extrapulmonary metastases is still a challenge for the clinical testing. This study aims to explore the differences of PD-L1 expression in test samples obtaining from different sites of NSCLC. This study may contribute to the detection strategy of PD-L1 in patients with advanced lung cancer.@*METHODS@#One hundred and thirty-one cases of consecutively detected PD-L1 (22c3 assay, Dako) staining in metastatic NSCLC and 972 cases of non-paired intrapulmonary NSCLC were collected. The discrepancies of tumor proportion score (TPS) of PD-L1 expression in intrapulmonary samples and extrapulmonary metastatic samples of different sites were compared.@*RESULTS@#The positive expression rate of PD-L1 in extrapulmonary metastatic NSCLC (TPS ≥ 1%) was 61.83%, and the TPS was significantly higher than that in intrapulmonary tumors (P=0.03). The PD-L1 scores of the specimens obtained from different sites were significantly different (P=0.007). The positive rates of PD-L1 in liver and adrenal metastases were 85.71% and 77.78% respectively, and their TPS were significantly higher than that of the intrapulmonary samples (P<0.05). The positive rates of PD-L1 in lymph node, bone, brain, soft tissue, and pleural metastases was 40.00%-66.67%, with no significant differences compared to intrapulmonary tumors. The analysis of histological subtype and sample type showed that the PD-L1 score of extrapulmonary samples of adenocarcinoma subtype or surgical specimen was significantly higher than that of intrapulmonary tumors. The analysis of clinicopathological parameters showed that the PD-L1 positive expression or high expression were significantly correlated with male patients, smoking history, and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) wild type.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The expression of PD-L1 in metastatic NSCLC is generally higher than that in intrapulmonary tumor, and the positive rate of PD-L1 expression was discrepant in different sites of specimen. The differences of PD-L1 score between extrapulmonary metastatic samples and intrapulmonary samples may be associated with different metastatic sites, histological subtype, and specimen type.

Design of Radial Artery Simulation Platform Based on Waveform Drive / 中国医疗器械杂志

In order to obtain the three-dimensional pulse information and blood pressure waveform needed in the study, a radial artery simulation platform with programmable controlled injection pump as the core was constructed by using the circulation theory of human cardiovascular system and pulse wave formation mechanism. Gaussian function model was selected to synthesize multi-type pulse wave to program and drive the platform. The three-dimensional pulse information and blood pressure waveform of the simulated radial artery were collected by binocular visual pulse detection system and pressure transmitter respectively, and the platform stability and repeatability were tested by Pearson correlation. The experimental results show that the radial artery simulation platform is stable, reliable and repeatable, and can generate multiple types of three-dimensional pulse information and blood pressure waveform at the simulated radial artery. The platform is simple in structure, low in cost, and produces many types of pulsating flow. It provides an experimental research platform for revealing the relationship between the three-dimensional pulse information of radial artery and the change of pressure inside the vessel, as well as the prediction of blood pressure waveform from the three-dimensional pulse information.

Chinese Experts Consensus on Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (2019 version) / 中国肺癌杂志

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common pathological type of lung cancer, most NSCLC patients are at advanced stage at the time of diagnosis. For patients without sensitive driven-oncogene mutations, chemotherapy is still the main treatment at present, the overall prognosis is poor. Improving outcomes and obtaining long-term survival are the most urgent needs of patients with advanced NSCLC. In recent years, immunotherapy has developed rapidly. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), especially targeting programmed death-1 (PD-1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), have made a breakthrough in the treatment of NSCLC, beneficial to patients' survival and changed the treatment pattern for NSCLC. It shows more and more important role in the treatment of NSCLC. Led by NSCLC expert committee of Chinese society of clinical oncology (CSCO), relevant experts in this field were organized. On the basis of referring to domestic and foreign literature, systematically evaluating the results of Chinese and foreign clinical trials, and combining the experiences of the experts, the experts group reached an agreement to develop this consensus. It will guide domestic counterparts for better application of ICIs to treat NSCLC.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the high resolution CT (HRCT) features of cyst-like lung adenocarcinoma, explore the correlation between HRCT image features and histopathological characteristics, and observe the pathological basis of air-containing space.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>HRCT and histopathologic findings of cyst-like lung adenocarcinoma in 86 patients were investigated retrospectively. The image features of both tumor and air-containing space were analyzed. All surgically resected specimens were reviewed. The pathological analysis included histologic subtype, differentiation degree, and the pathological basis of air-containing space formation. The correlation between HRCT image features and histopathologic grades was analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>On HRCT, intratumoral necrosis was detected in 17 cases (19.8%), air-containing space with septa in 40 cases (46.5%), wall nodule in the air-containing space in 16 cases (18.6%), mixed thick and thin walls of air-containing space in 49 cases (57.0%). Air-containing space and its wall were observed in 63 cases on histological specimens, among which destruction of the alveolar wall by tumor cells might be the pathological basis of air-containing space in 42 (66.7%) cases. Differences of tumor attenuation (P = 0.030), intratumoral necrosis (P = 0.003) and proportion of thin-wall in air-containing space (P = 0.014) among different histopathologic grades were significant. The proportion of thin-wall in air-containing space was negatively correlated with histological grade (r = 0.267, P = 0.015). Differences of tumor contour (P = 0.002), tumor attenuation (P = 0.006), intratumoral necrosis (P < 0.001), septa in air-containing space (P = 0.016) and proportion of thin-wall in the air-containing space (P = 0.005) among different differentiation degrees were significant. The proportion of thin-wall in air-containing space was positively correlated with differentiation degree (r = 0.266, P = 0.013).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>On HRCT, cyst-like lung adenocarcinoma may manifest as an air-containing space with septa and mixed thin and thick walls, whereas wall nodule of air-containing space and intratumoral necrosis are not common. There is a certain correlation of HRCT manifestation with pathological subtype grading and tumor differentiation. Analysis of HRCT image features is helpful in prediction of the histopathologic grading and histological differentiation degree of the tumors. Destruction of the alveolar structure by tumor cells may be the main pathological basis of air-containing space formation in cyst-liked lung adenocarcinoma.</p>

Abdominal and pelvic lymph nodes in non-Hodgkin lymphoma: the nodal distribution in Chinese patients / 中华肿瘤杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the distribution of abdominal and pelvic lymph nodes involved in non-Hodgkin lymphoma in Chinese patients.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>CT images of 241 non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients with abdominal and pelvic lymph nodes involved were reviewed. Of them, 96 patients whose clinical and image data fulfilled the requirements of the analysis were included: 1. Positive abdominal and/or pelvic nodular lesion in untreated patients examined by CT (n = 74). 2. New lesions in abdominal or pelvic lymph nodes who never had any nodular lesion by previous abdominal and/or pelvic CT (n = 14). 3. Treated patients who did not have abdominal and/or pelvic CT before, showed regression of initial disease for at lease 6 months after chemotherapy and patients showing abdominal and/or pelvic nodal lesions (n = 8) were assessed. In accordance with Clinical Schema for the Lymphoid System, these patients were divided into 3 histology subtypes: indolent (IL; n = 31), aggressive (AL; n = 61) and very aggressive (VAL; n = 2) lymphoma. The remaining 2 cases were unclassified (UCL). Both abdominal and pelvic CT scans were undertaken in 46 patients, abdominal CT only in 47 patients and pelvic CT only in 3 patients. Enhanced CT with i.v. contrast was obtained in 80 patients. The anatomic sites involved were designated as retroperitoneal (i.e. paraaortic), mesenteric, abdominal (i.e. celiac, paracardiac, gastrohepatic, and hepatic hilar, etc), retrocrural, subdiaphragmatic, common iliac, internal iliac, external iliac, and inguinal nodes, respectively.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The lesions were located in the retroperitoneum, with an incidence of 83% for both IL and AL. These were predominantly seen superior and inferior to the renal hila, with incidences of 72.0% (18/25) in IL and 67.3% (33/49) in AL. Pelvic lymph nodes came the next, with incidences of 41.9% (126/301 sites of IL and AL), 57.5% (50/87 sites) in IL and 35.5% (76/214 sites) in AL. Mesenteric lymph nodes stood third with incidences of 37.1% (33/89 IL and AL), 43.3% (13/30) in IL and 33.9% (20/59) in AL. There was only one statistically significant evidence that the external iliac lymph nodes were much more commonly seen in IL than in AL (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>In Chinese patients, retroperitoneal, iliac, and mesenteric nodes are the most commonly involved lymph nodes in NHL. The involved retroperitoneal lymph nodes are predominantly located superior and inferior to the renal hila. The anatomic distribution of abdominal and pelvic lymph nodes in NHL of Chinese patients is different from that of the western countries.</p>

The peak onset age is more than 65 years. It is found frequently in the stomach, liver, uterine, esophagogastric junction, and lung. Without special clinical features, it is difficult to diagnose. Pathological findings are the only way to make a correct diagnosis before operation. Operation is the major therapy, assisted by chemotherapy or/and radiotherapy when necessary. Collision carcinoma represents a coexistence of two adjacent but histologically different malignant neoplasmas without histological admixture in an organ.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Collision carcinoma is rare but composed of mosaics of two malignant tumours. The clinical features of collision carcinoma need further investigation.</p>

Expressions of proliferating cell nuclear antigen, P16and P27 in adenoid cystic carcinoma of salivary glands / 中国耳鼻咽喉头颈外科

Objective:To evaluate the clinical significance of expression of proliferation cell nuclear antigen(PCNA),P16 and P27genes in adenoid cystic carcinoma of salivary glands.Methods:The expressions of PCNA,P16and P27were detected by immunohistochemical staining (SP)in 55 patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma of salivary glands.Results:The higher and lower expressions of PCNA were 45.5%(19/55) and 65.5%(35/55) respectively;of P16 were 45.5%(25/55) and 54.5%(30/55)respectively.And the positive and negative expressions of P27 were 34.5%(19/55) and 65.5%(36/55),respectively.The correlation of expression of PCNA gene with local recurrence and tumor site showed significant (P=0.0317,P=0.0186);but the expression of P16was no any significant correlation in all of the variables.The expression of P27 was significant on the regional lymph node metastaisis (P=0.0083).When higher expression of P16was 45.5%(25/55),the P27positive expression was 56.0%(14/25),which showed a significant positive correlation (P=0.0025).Conclusion:In adenoid cystic carcinoma of salivary glands,the PCNA gene should be one of the biological target predicting local recurrence,and P27gene should be one of the biological target justifying regional lymph node metastasis.
