Effect of hip neuromuscular training on anterior cruciate ligament injury risk for female soccer players / 中国康复理论与实践

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of hip neuromuscular training on reducing the risk of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in female soccer players. MethodsFrom March to May, 2022, 39 female soccer players from Xi'an Physical Education University were randomly divided into control group (n = 19) and experimental group (n = 20). On the basis of daily training, the control group received sham intervention, and the experimental group received hip neuromuscular training, for six weeks. Before and after training, they were measured dynamic knee valgus (DKV) angle and assessed with Landing Error Score System (LESS); while they were also measured the maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) and root mean square (RMS) of electromyography as single leg landing of gluteus medius and gluteus maximus. ResultsAll the indexes varied little after training in the control group (|t| < 1.178, P > 0.05), while the indexes improved in the experimental group (|t| > 2.288, P < 0.05), except sagittal score of LESS; and all the indexes improved more in the experimental group than in the control group (|t| > 2.609, P < 0.05), except sagittal score of LESS and MVIC of gluteus maximus. ConclusionHip neuromuscular training can reduce the risk of ACL injury in female soccer players.

Analysis of prognostic factors affecting brainstem glioma / 中华放射医学与防护杂志

Objective:To explore overall survival(OS) and prognostic factors of brainstem gliomas (BSG) after intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) by a retrospective single-center analysis.Methods:A total of twenty-one patients with BSG were collected in the Department of Radiation Oncology, Peking University Cancer Hospital from January 2012 to September 2019. All patients underwent IMRT. OS and potential prognostic factors were analyzed, including gender, age, operation type, imaging classification, tumor location, WHO grade, chemotherapy, radiotherapy pattern, time interval between morbidity and the first treatment, and radiation dose.Results:Eighteen of twenty-one patients were followed up more than 3 months. The median follow-up time was 15.5 (5.3-25.6) months. The median overall survival (mOS) was 20 (14.1-25.8) months. The 1 and 2-year OS rates were 86.2% and 34.5% respectively. Operation type, imaging classification, tumor location, WHO grade and radiotherapy pattern were the prognosis factors ( χ2=4.829-20.261, P<0.05). Conclusions:Patients with maximal safe surgical resection, focal endogenesis / exogenesis, tumor located in mesencephalon, low-grade gliomas and/or received postoperative radiotherapy have a better prognosis. It has certain reference value for guiding the clinical practice.

Research progress of sacral neuromodulation procedure in the treatment of chronic constipation and fecal incontinence / 中华胃肠外科杂志

Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) procedure has become a new therapy to treat chronic constipation and fecal incontinence. The surgical procedure is easy and safe. It has a small incision compared with traditional surgery and is mainly used in patients whose traditional treatment was unsuccessful. Chronic constipation is one of the most common digestive symptoms. The quality of life in patients with severe constipation has decreased greatly. Although the incidence of fecal incontinence in China is not as high as that of constipation, it also seriously affects the life of the patients, resulting in a decline in the quality of life. Although the mechanism of SNM is uncertain, with more studies conducted, understanding has become more profound, and the curative effect has been recognized. SNM can improve the symptoms and the quality of life. Many studies have reported SNM treatment. Furthermore, some trials on SNM have been conducted. It is used after colorectal resections to promote symptoms of bowel dysfunction. However, few studies reported regarding SNM for constipation and fecal incontinence in China, and knowledge regarding SNM is limited. In this article, we will mainly discuss SNM in the treatment of chronic constipation and fecal incontinence, and its research progress on the mechanism and method, surgical procedure, effectiveness, complications, postoperative contraindications, and the population who need to pay attention, in order to provide reference for the treatment of SNM in China.

Research on DNA Hydroxymethylation Modification in Digestive System Carcinoma / 现代生物医学进展

DNA hydroxymethylation modification is an important part of genome epigenetic regulation.The demethylation process from 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) is catalyzed by Tet protein.Abnormal genomic methylation leads to the occurrence of a variety of tumors.Hydroxymethylation is modified as a kind of demethylation and is inseparable from tumorigenesis.The expression of 5-hmC changes accompanied with the development and progression of digestive system tumors,which may be associated with the TET protein family and IDH mutation.It suggested that DNA hydroxymethylation is involved in the development and progression of digestive system tumors.This paper reviews the relationship between DNA hydroxymethylation and digestive system tumors,and aims to provide a new direction for the study of Hydroxymethylation modification in digestive system tumors.

Diagnosis and management of tumors primary in renal sinus / 中华泌尿外科杂志

Objectlve To discuss the characters and management of renal sinus tumors. Methods The clinical data of 3 tumors occurring in tenal sinus were reviewed.The first patient was a 33-year-old man with the chief complaint of lumbago in the right side for 6 months.B-ultrasound showed low echo in the right pelvis and CT scan showed that a mass measured about 3.5 cm in diameter in the right kidney collective system.Intravenous urography showed the upper collective system was tompressed.He was diagnosed for renal sinus tumor.The second case was a 34-year-old woman with the chief complaint of sudden lumbago in the right for 3 d.Color ultrasonography found hyperechoic in the right kidney.CT scan showed a mass measured 8 cm×6 cm × 8 cm in the right renal sinus,its CT value was about-70 HU.Intravenous urography showed the lower collective system was compressed.She was diagnosed for renal angiomyolipoma of right kidney.The third case was a 55+year-old woman with the chief complaint of lumbago for 1 year.B ultrasound showed hyperechoic in the leftrenal hilum.CT scan showed a nlass of 8 cm×5 cm×5 am in the left renal sinus with CT value of 50 HU.Intravenous urography showed the collective system of the left kidney was compressed.Mag-netic resonance imaging showed high signal on T1 WI and T2WI but low signal in fat suppression ima-ging.She was diagnosed for lipoma of the left renal sinus. Results All the 3 cases had undergone surgical approaches.The first case underwent surgical exploration of renal sinus tumor.Fast pathologic diagnosis was benign tumor,only the tumor was resected.Postoperative pathology confirmed the diagnosis of angioleiomyoma.There was no recurrence during follow-up of 3 years.The second case was scheduled for tumor enucleating,but nephrectomy was perform because of serious bleeding and damaged renal pelvis.Pathological report was angiomyolipoma.The third case was scheduled for lipoma enucleating but nephrectomy was performed because of tumor encapsulated renal pedicle vascular.Pathological report was lipoma.During the follow-up for 4 years there was no relapse. ConclusionsTumors occurred in renal sinus are rare, most of which are benign.CT scan, MRI and intravenous urography are the best imaging examination methods for differential diagnosis.Surgical operation is the major approach, while for the tumor radical nephrectomy less than 4 cm watchful waiting could be a choice.Tumor resection with nephron sparing is feasible while tumor is larger than 4 cm.Radical nephrectomy should performed for the malignant tumor.

Epithelioid angiomyolipoma of the kidney / 中华泌尿外科杂志

Objective To investigate the clinicopathologic features of epithelioid angiomyolipoma of renal(REAML). Methods Six cases of REAML were analyzed by histopathological and clinical characteristics.Of the 6 cases,4 cases were solitary tumors and 2 cases were multiple lesions.The diameter of tumors was about 9 cm in average.One case had a family history of nodular sclerosis.Three cases were found adipose tissue in CT scan and diagnosed for RAML,the other 3 cases were diagnosed for renal cancer.All cases were undergone surgical approach,3 cases were undergone resection of tumors only and the other 3 were performed nephrectomy. Results Pathological characters:tumor was mainly composed of epithelioid cells presented with invasive hyperplasia of atypical pleomorphism,hyperchromatic nuclei with frequent mitotic figures,giant neoplasic cells and extensive hemorrhagic necrosis immunohistochemcial staining showing a positive HMB45 and negative of EMA,CK in most neoplasic cells.All cases were followed up for 10 to 44 months,5 cases did not recurrence and metastases;the other had lung metastasis after operation 18 months later,without any treatment the patient died 10 months later. Conclusions Most of REAMLs are benign and often misdiagnosed for renal cancer by CT scan.HMB45 is positive in immunohistochemcial staining available for diagnose.The minority of REMAL is malignant potentially and should be followed up closely.Operation is major method.
