RESUMO
ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Bushen Huoxue enema in treating the rat model of kidney deficiency and blood stasis-thin endometrium （KDBS-TE） by transcriptome sequencing. MethodThe rat model of KDBS-TE was established by administration of tripterygium polyglycosides tablets combined with subcutaneous injection of adrenaline. The pathological changes of rat endometrium in each group were then observed. Three uterine tissue specimens from each of the blank group， model group， and Bushen Huoxue enema group were randomly selected for transcriptome sequencing. The differentially expressed circRNAs， lncRNAs， and miRNAs were screened， and the disease-related specific competitive endogenous RNA （ceRNA） regulatory network was constructed. Furthermore， the gene ontology （GO） functional annotation and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） pathway enrichment were performed for the mRNAs in the network. ResultCompared with the blank group， the model group showed endometrial dysplasia， decreased endometrial thickness and endometrial/total uterine wall thickness ratio （P<0.01）， and differential expression of 18 circRNAs， 410 lncRNAs， and 7 miRNAs. Compared with the model group， the enema and estradiol valerate groups showed improved endometrial morphology and increased endometrial thickness and ratio of endometrial to total uterine wall thickness （P<0.05）. In addition， 21 circRNAs， 518 lncRNAs， and 17 miRNAs were differentially expressed in the enema group. The disease-related specific circRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network composed of 629 nodes and 664 edges contained 2 circRNAs， 34 miRNAs， and 593 mRNAs. The lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network composed of 180 nodes and 212 edges contained 5 lncRNAs， 10 miRNAs， and 164 mRNAs. The mNRAs were mainly enriched in Hippo signaling pathway， autophagy-animal， axon guidance， etc. ConclusionBushen Huoxue enema can treat KDBS-TE in rats by regulating specific circRNAs， lncRNAs， and miRNAs in the uterus and the ceRNA network.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the value of stretched-exponential model of DWI in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast lesions.Methods Totally 58 patients with 63 breast lesions (33 benign,30 malignant lesions) were enrolled.All the patients underwent multiple b value DWI and dynamic contrast enhancement MRI (DCE-MRI) scans.The values of ADC,DDC and water molecular diffusion heterogeneity index (α) were calculated,and the time signal intensity curve (TIC) was obtained.All the parameters were compared between benign and malignant breast lesions.The diagnostic performance of different parameters was evaluated with ROC curve.Results ADC,DDC and α value of malignant lesions was (1.01±0.19)×10-3 mm2/s,(0.89±0.23)×10-3 mm2/s and 0.75±0.09,while of benign lesions was (1.41±0.27)× 10-3 mm2/s,(1.49±0.29)× 10-3mm2/s and 0.87±0.07,respectively.All 3 parameters in malignant lesions were lower than those in benign lesions (all P＜0.01).Taking 1.22 × 10-3 mm2/s as the optimal threshold,the area under the curve (AUC) of DDC was the largest as 0.958,and the corresponding diagnostic sensitivity and specificity was 96.67％ and 81.82％,respectively.AUC value was 0.976 by combining DDC with TIC,and the corresponding diagnostic sensitivity and specificity was 93.33％ and 93.94％,respectively.Conclusion The stretched-exponential model DWI can differentiate breast lesions,and diagnostic performance of combination of DDC and TIC is better than ADC or DCE.
RESUMO
Background and purpose:A variety of measures are taken preoperatively to reduce the tumor size of stageⅠb2 bulky cervical cancer before surgery. Which one is safer and more effective, currently, there is no consensus. This article compared the effect in 3 different treatment methods (neoadjuvant chemotherapy, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and operation) on patients with stageⅠb2 bulky cervical cancer, and provided evidence for clinical decision. Methods:Retrospective analysis the clinical date of 133Ⅰb2 bulky cervical cancer patients, who received preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and direct operation from Apr. 2006 to Oct. 2010 in our hospital. Results: The effective rates of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy group were 91.8% and 92.5%, respectively, there was no statistical difference(P>0.05). The tumor size got smaller after treatment compared with the size before treatment (P0.05). The bleeding volume of neoadjuvant chemo radio therapy group was significantly higher than those in the other 2 groups (158.9±50.7 vs 116.8±45.5, 123.1±30.2;P0.05);Pathological examination showed that vascular invasion in surgery group had statistical differences than other 2 groups (P0.05);Besides, there were no statistical difference on vascular invasion between the 3 groups (P>0.05);And on 3-year overall survival, disease-free survival there was no statistical difference between the 3 groups (P>0.05). Conclusion:Neoadjuvant chemotherapy can effectively reduce tumor size for patients with stage Ⅰb2 bulky cervical cancer before operation, it is better than direct surgery or preoperative chemoradiotherapy in improving the resection rate, and reducing postoperative pathological positive rate, and infection. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy can improve the pathological complete remission rate. The combination of radiation and chemotherapy might produce synergistic effect on huge cervical tumor, but it can’t improve the survival rate. Therefore, neoadjuvant chemotherapy is the best choice for the stageⅠb2 cervical cancer patients. Therefore, a long-term follow-up or large sample randomized controlled trials is necessary to assess the prognosis of preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy and neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.
RESUMO
Objective To introduce an improved method of continuous intradermal suture,and to evaluate its clinical efficacy for the closure of surgical incisions.Methods Eighty-two patients were enrolled in this study,including 37 cases of nevus,10 cases of basal cell carcinoma,16 cases of sebaceous cyst,6 cases of lipoma,8 cases of seborrheic keratosis,3 cases of dermatofibroma and 2 cases of depressed scar.All the patients were managed by simple surgical excision with the shortest length of postoperative incisions being 0.8 cm and the longest length being 12 cm.An improved method of continuous intradermal suture was used for the closure of all the postoperative incisions.Specifically,an absorbable thread with a small triangle needle in both ends was inserted through and pulled out from the dermal layer at one side of the incision,and then inserted through and pulled out from the dermal layer at the opposite side of the incision,which was repeated until the incision was entirely closed.Results Among the 82 patients,80 achieved primary healing,and 2 developed erythematous painful swelling at the incision site 2 days after the operation,which disappeared after symptomatic treatment for 5 days.During 3-6 months of follow-up,the incisions closed leaving a flat and smooth surface in 78 patients,and proliferative scar formed in 4 patients,which was obviously improved after local injection with glucocorticoids.No disruption of incisions was observed.Conclusion The improved method of continuous intradermal suture can be applied to the closure of skin defects in the face,neck,trunk and extremities with a favorable healing outcome and cosmetic result.
RESUMO
Objective To compare theshort-term efficacy and safety between TP and PVB scheme chemoradiation for advanced cervical cancer. Methods Between January 2012 and January 2014, 187 Xinjiang uygur patients with advanced cervical cancer (stageⅡb to Ⅳa) who received concurrent chemoradiotherapy in Xinjiang medical university affiliated tumor hospital were analyzed. A1l cases were divided into two groups receiving radiotherapy concomitant (n = 104), PVB group (n = 83). Theshort-term efficacy and toxicity was evaluated four weeks aftertreatment. Results For squamous cell carcinomas, the response rates were 85.9% and 73.5% in TP and PVB group respectively (P > 0.05). For Non-squamous cell carcinomas (adenocarcinoma and adenosquamous), the response rates were 75.7% and 40% in TP and PVB group respectively (P 0.05). Conclusions For cervical squamous cell carcinomas, theshort-term efficacy of two chemotherapy regimens is similar while forNon-squamous cell carcinomas, TP regimengroup is superior toBone marrow suppression and neurotoxicity in TP regimengroup is significantly higher than PVB group (P < 0.05), while gastrointestinal adverse reaction lower than PVBgroup.
