RESUMEN
Objective To retrospectively analyze the clinical and pathological data of 48 patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma of the head and neck and screen out related factors that affect the patient's prognosis. Methods The overall survival rate of patients is used as the main indicator for observing prognosis. We selected 11 clinical and pathological factors as observation indicators that may have an impact on the survival and prognosis of patients. The relation between observation factors and the overall survival rate of patients was analyzed by Cox multivariate regression. Results The median follow-up time was 33.5(1-98) months. The 1-, 2- and 5-years overall survival rates were 95%, 91% and 87%. Local recurrence occurred in 14(29.2%) patients. Distant metastasis occurred in 22(45.8%) patients. Cox regression analysis showed that recurrence, distant metastasis and primary site were correlated with the overall survival rate of patients with head and neck adenoid cystic carcinoma (P < 0.05). Conclusion Adenoid cystic carcinoma is a relatively rare tumor of the head and neck with a low degree of malignancy. However, recurrence, distant metastasis and primary site have relatively great impact on the prognosis of patients.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:Laminar flow operating room used in artificial joint replacement can improve the aseptic conditions and can effectively prevent the infections after joint replacement. OBJECTIVE:To compare the number of colonies during artificial joint replacement in laminar flow operation room and traditional operation room. METHODS:300 patients with artificial joint replacement in hundred-level laminar flow operation room and 300 patients with artificial joint replacement in traditional operation room were selected, and al the patients had no infection. Then 100 patients with artificial joint replacement were randomly selected from the hundred-level laminar flow operation room and traditional operation room respectively. The number of colonies in operation room of two groups was compared before and after replacement. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There was no significant difference in the number of colonies between two groups before replacement, and the settling bacteria number of the artificial hip replacement patients in the hundred-level laminar flow operation room was significantly smal er than that in the traditional operation room (P<0.05). The results indicate that compared with the traditional operation room, the hundred-level laminar flow operation room for artificial joint replacement has higher safety and can effectively prevent infections after replacement.
RESUMEN
The National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project (NSABP) is a clinical trials cooperative group supported by the National Cancer Institute (NCI).The NSABP has conducted clinical trials in breast and colorectal cancer for nearly 40 years,many of which have greatly improved the therapies in breast and colorectal cancers.There have been some new advances on new adjuvant chemotherapy regimens,targeted therapy,adjuanvt and neoadjuvant therapies for rectal cancer in recent 5 years.
