ABSTRACT
Objective To assess whether pregnancy affects the survival of pregnancy-associated breast cancer (PABC), compared with non-PABC. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the data of PABC patients.PABC cases and non-PABC cases were matched with 1:2 according to T stage, molecular classification, age of onset and year of diagnosis.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate DFS and OS, and Log rank test was used for comparison.Cox regression analysis was used to evaluate the risk factors that affect the prognosis of PABC. Results We enrolled 35 patients in the PABC group (pregnancy: 10;postpartum: 25), and 70 patients in the non-PABC group.The median follow-up time was 68.5 and 70.7 months, respectively.The 5-year DFS was 51.6% in the PABC group, and that of the non-PABC group was 72.8%(χ2=4.72, P=0.029);the 5-year OS of the PABC group and the non-PABC group were similar (χ2=1.769, P=0.183).Cox regression analysis showed that pregnancy was an independent risk factor for DFS of PABC patients (P=0.011). Conclusion Patients with breast cancer during pregnancy have a higher risk of recurrence.Further research is necessary to diagnose pregnancy-associated breast cancer earlier and adopt measures to improve the curative effect.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical features and therapeutic methods of ameloblastoma in nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. METHODS The clinical data of 6 cases of ameloblastoma in nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses diagnosed by pathology were analyzed retrospectively, and the relevant literature were reviewed. RESULTS All of the 6 cases received surgical treatment. The follow-up period was 15 months to 10 years after operation.3 patients recurred until the last follow up. Among them, 2 cases recurred once, 1 case recurred 2 times, no patient died of this tumor. CONCLUSION The incidence of ameloblastoma in nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses is low and the symptoms are nonspecific, the diagnosis mainly depends on pathology and immunohistochemistry. CT and MRI examinations of ameloblastoma are helpful in diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the lesion. The main treatment is surgical resection of the lesion, the recurrence rate is higher. It has malignant tendency, and long-term follow-up is needed.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the content determination of 8 metal elements in Propylgaclate and sodium chloride injection.

Radiofrequency power was 1 530 W;cooling temperature was 4 ℃;collision gas was He gas;carrier gas was argon;flow rate of carrier gas was 1.08 L/min;integration time was 0.3 s;plasma gas flow rate was 15 L/min;the vacuum degree of quadrupole was 3.04×10－4 Pa;sampling cone aperture was 1.0 mm;interception cone aperture was 0.4 mm;the speed of sampling was 0.3 rps;data collection was repeated for 3 times. The microwave digestion power is 1 600 W,and the heating process is heated to 160℃at room temperature for 30 min,and maintained at 5 min,and then heated to 190 ℃ at a temperature of 5 ℃/min and maintained 45 min. RESULTS:The linear range of Mg and Al were 1-250 ng/mL;the linear range of Cr,Mn,Fe,Cu,Zn,Cd were 1-100 ng/ mL(all r≥0.999 0). The limits of detection were 0.063 6-1.785 0 ng/mL. RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 4%. The recoveries were 89.65%-105.60%(RSD were 1.57%-3.98%,n＝9). RSDs of durablity were all lower than 12%. CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,accurate,precise,stable,reproducible and durable. It can be used for content determination of 8 metal elements in Propylgaclate and sodium chloride injection.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To establish a method for the determination of eucalyptol, camphor and menthol in compound menthol camphor eucalyptus oil solution by GC.Methods: An HP-INNOWAX 19091N-216 capillary column(60 m× 0.32 mm , 0.50 μm)was used.The carrier gas was nitrogen with the flow rate of 30 ml·min-1 , the gas was hydrogen with the flow rate of 40 ml·min-1 and the oxidant gas was air with the flow rate of 400 ml· min-1.The detector was FID and the inlet temperature was 250℃.The temperature program was as follows: the initial column temperature was 50℃, and then risen to 160℃ with a rate of 10℃·min-1 and kept for 5 min, and finally risen to 220℃ with a rate of 20℃·min-1 and kept for 3 min.The split ratio was 15∶1 and the injection volume was 1 μl.Results: The linear range of eucalyptol, camphor and menthol was 0.031 9-2.550 0 mg·ml-1 (r=1.000 0), 0.041 3-3.305 0 mg·ml-1 (r=1.000 0) and 0.053 7-4.294 0 mg·ml-1 (r=1.000 0), respectively.The average recovery was 98.24% (RSD=0.3% , n =9), 98.97% (RSD=0.4% , n =9) and 98.98% (RSD=0.5% , n =9), respectively.Conclusion: The method is sensitive and accurate with good stability, which can be used to determine the contents of eucalyptol, camphor and menthol in compound menthol camphor eucalyptus oil solution.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate the age, sex, etiology, diagnosis and treatment time of nasal bone fractures.@*METHOD@#Clinical data of 202 cases with nasal bone fractures treated in the hospital were retrospectively analysed.@*RESULT@#A total of 202 cases,163 men (80. 7%) and 39 women (19. 3%). Fifty-two patients had a relationship with alcohol consumption, and all of them were males. The most frequent reasons of the injury were fight 46. 5% (94 cases) followed by falling-down 21. 3% (43 cases), traffic accidents 19. 3% (39 cases), works related 6. 5% (13 cases), sport injuries 5. 9% (12 cases) and others 0. 5% (1 cases). Patients distribution in seasons were: spring 54 cases (26.7%), summer 42 cases (20.8%), autumn 58 cases (28.7%), winter 48 cases (23. 8%). Diagnosis of nasal bone fractures were made positively by x-ray films in 79. 7% of cases, but 100% by CT. Positive predictive value of CT was superior to that of X-ray films in the diagnosis of nasal bone fracture.@*CONCLUSION@#High morbidity of nasal bone fracture was seen in the age group of 20-29 years, and predominantly in male. Fight was found to be the main etiologic factor. We think that CT is necessary for diagnosing nasal bone fracture.

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the relationship between human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and pathogenesis of nasal inverted papilloma (NIP) and its malignant transformation.@*METHOD@#Fifty-seven cases of NIP were divided into 2 groups: benign group, squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) arising in NIP group (malignancy group). HPV-DNA types of 6, 11, 16, 18 were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 57 cases of NIP. Thirty cases of nasal polyps were control.@*RESULT@#Total positive rate of HPV in NIP was 64.9% (37/57). The positive rate of benign group was 60% (27/45), all with single and low risk HPV11 type infection. The positive rate of malignancy group were was 83.3% (10/12), and the majority were HPV16 and HPV18. Five cases had double infection (4 with HPV16 and HPV 18, 1 with HPV11 and HPV18), four had single HPV16 infection, another one had single HPV11 infection. However, HPV-DNA was not detected in any cases of nasal polyps.@*CONCLUSION@#Infection of HPV-DNA has an important effect in pathogenesis of NIP. Meanwhile, there maybe a close relationship between high risk HPV16 type and HPV18 type and malignant transformation of NIP.
