Objective:This study aimed to analyze the correlation of the expression of CXCR4, CD44, and CD133 proteins with the clinicopathological characteristics of patients to identify the factors affecting the post-operation survival rate of tongue squamous cell carcinomas (TSCCs). Methods:Clinical data of 44 patients with TSCCs were collected and retrospectively analyzed. The diagno-ses of all cases were pathologically confirmed. CXCR4, CD44, and CD133 expression in 44 TSCCs patients with different pathological grades was examined immunohistochemically. Survival curves were processed in accordance with the Kaplan-Meier method. The Cox regression model was used for the multivariate analysis of relevant clinical and survival data. Results:Among the 44 examined TSCCs patients, 29 cases were well differentiated and 15 were moderately or poor differentiated;11 cases were stageⅠ, 12 were stageⅡ, 8 were stageⅢ, and 13 were stageⅣ. Positive staining of CXCR4, CD44, and CD133 was found in all cases with different degrees. Ac-cording to the pathological tumor grade, the positive rates of CXCR4, CD44, and CD133 expression were 79.54% (35/44 cases),77.27%(34/44 cases), and 75.00%(33/44 cases), respectively. Expression of CXCR4, CD44, and CD133 significantly differed between different histological grades (P<0.05). Correlation analysis indicated that the expression of CXCR4, CD44, and CD133 was positively correlated with the metastasis, recurrence of TSCCs. COX multivariate analysis indicated that CXCR4 expression, clinical stage, and neck metastasis were independent prognostic predictors of TSCCs patients and risk factors of death. Conclusion:CXCR4, CD44, and CD133 may be correlated with the malignancy of TSCCs. CXCR4 expression, clinical stage, cervical lymph node metastasis were the correlated prognosis factors of TSCC patients after operation.

Objective To investigate the incidence and etiological factors of hyponatremia following traumatic brain injury (TBI) and analyze the relationship between hyponatremia and the patient’s age, gender, type of injury, Glasgow coma scale (GCS), operation and computerized tomography (CT) scan of head. Methods Clinical data of 136 pa-tients with moderate or severe TBI in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively, including patient’s age, gender, type of injury, GCS, operation, brain edema and basal skull fracture. The relationship between clinical data and hyponatremia were analyzed statistically by Chi-square test and multivariate Logistic regression analysis. Results There were 56 pa-tients with hyponatremia in 136 patients (81 males) with moderate or severe TBI. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that hyponatremia secondary to TBI was not associated with patient’s age, gender, type of injury and operation or not. However, there was a high correlation between hyponatremia following TBI and clinical characteristics of TBI at ear-ly stage, such as GCS, brain edema and basal skull fracture. Conclusions Patients with TBI is more likely to develop hy-ponatremia when they have the following clinical factors, such as GCS≤8, brain edema or basal skull fracture. Preven-tive measures should be given to these patients in advance.

Objective:To prepare and preliminarily identify the monoclonal antibodies(mAbs) specifically against 3D protein of Enterovirus 71(EV71),using bioinformatics to predict the epitopes of 3D,with HBc protein as a carrier.Methods: Artificial screening of 3D protein epitope sequences by bioinformatic method,inserted into the major immunodominant region(MIR) area of Hepatitis B virus core protein(HBc),to construct the recombinant protein.BALB/c mice were immunized with the recombinant virus like particles(VLPs),to prepare the mAbs against 3D protein of EV71.Affinity chromatography technology was used to purify the mAb.The indirect ELISA,ELISPOT,immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry staining methods were used to identify the characteristic of the mAb.Results: We displayed 3D(aa34-43),3D(aa61-76) and 3D(aa151-164) epitopes by constructing fusion protein using HBc VLPs as a vector,after hybridization,one positive hybridoma cell line(3E1) was selected by ELISA.The isotype of 3E1 was IgG2a.The results of immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry staining assay showed that the mAb 3E1 could specifically recognize EV71.Conclusion: The prepared mAb 3E1 can specifically recognizes the EV71,which laid the foundation for the detection of virus and further study on 3D protein,and verified the bioinformatics technology combined with HBc carrier displaying peptides could prepare mAb quickly and efficiently.

OBJECTIVE: To study treatment method of laryngeal nonspecific granuloma. METHOD: Twenty-five patients with histopathologically identified laryngeal nonspecific granuloma were retrospective reviewed from 1998-2005. All patients were surgically treated by laser laryngomicrosurgery under general anesthesia, postoperative non-operative therapies included anti-gastroesophageal reflux medication, topical inhalant steroid (Beclometasone, Fluticasone) and voice therapy. Two patients were treated with 12 Gy of low-dose radiotherapy after surgery. RESULT: Laryngeal nonspecific granuloma have remarkable tendency of recurrence despite of surgery and non-surgical managements. Recurrence of laryngeal nonspecific granuloma occurs between 2-3 months postoperatively and requires repeated operation for 3 5 times. For intubation granuloma, 6 out of 8 were healed. Six out of eight contact granulomas were healed. Six of gastroesophageal reflux granulomas were healed. Glottic carcinoma was demonstrated in one case after 2 sessions of combined managements. Two patients were completely healed by low-dose radiotherapy of 12 Gy. CONCLUSION Laryngeal nonspecific granuloma have an obvious tendency of recurrence, however, surgery is an important therapy. Combined non-surgical therapies (anti-gastroesophageal reflux medication, topical inhalant steroid and voice therapy) are necessary. In case which routine ways fail to control recurrence, low-dose radiotherapy is recommended because of its safety and satisfied effect.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of headless double-threaded compression screws plus microplate for treatment of capitellar fracture of Ring type Ⅱ.Methods In the period from March 2015 to February 2018,12 capitellar fractures of Ring type Ⅱ were treated at Department of Upper limb Orthopedics,Zhengzhou Orthopaedics Hospital.There were 8 men and 4 women,aged from 25 to 57 years (average,35.4 years).There were 5 left and 7 right fractures.The fractures were exposed and reduced through the posterolateral elbow approach in 6 patients and through the lateral elbow approach in the other 6 ones.Fixation of all the fractures was conducted with headless double-threaded compression screws plus microplate.At the final follow-up,the elbow function was evaluated by the Mayo elbow performance score and the severity of traumatic arthritis by the Broberg & Morrey imaging criteria.Results All the patients were followed up for 9 to 36 months (average,23 months).The fracture healing time ranged from 9 to 12 weeks (average,10.6weeks).The final follow-ups revealed fine stability of the affected elbow joint in all the patients,and no loss of reduction,loosening or breakage of internal fixators or ischemic necrosis in any case.At the final follow-ups,the elbow inflection angles ranged from 90° to 130° (average,114.3°),the elbow extension angles from 0° to 20°(average,12.4°),the forearm pronation angles from 50° to 85° (average,70.5°) and the forearm supination angles from 45° to 80° (average,64.3°).The Mayo elbow performance scores at the final follow-up averaged 93.2points (from 85 to 100 points),yielding 8 excellent and 4 good cases.According to the Broberg & Morrey imaging criteria,10 patients showed no regressive change and 2 patients change by one grade.Conclusions A proper surgical approach should be chosen according to the preoperative imaging findings.The fracture of articular surface can be firmly fixated by head-less double-threaded compression screws and the integrity of the distal lateral column of the humerus can be restored with a microplate to achieve a strong biomechanical fixation.Fine clinical outcomes can be obtained by early functional exercise.

Objective: To explore the risk factors of long-term treatment outcomes and establish predicting model for laparoscopic left hepatectomy in hepatolithiasis. Methods: Clinical data of 108 patients with hepatolithiasis who underwent laparoscopic left sided hepatectomy and with complete follow-up data were retrospectively collected from June 2011 to June 2016 at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University. Twenty-six males and 82 females were enrolled. The age was (52.4±11.7) years (range:20-80 years) , and the median follow-up time was 36 months (range: 24-83 months) . Patients were randomly divided into training group (79 cases) and validation group (29 cases) with a ratio of about 3∶1. Twenty-five preoperative and intraoperative clinical factors were selected for potential factors that might affect long-term outcomes, and quality of life was used as an surrogate evaluation index. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to investigate the potential risk factors, and to construct and validate the predictive nomogram for surgical outcomes. Results: Among 108 patients, 10 patients (9.3%) had residual stones, 8 patients (7.4%) had recurrent stones, 12 patients (11.1%) had recurrent cholangitis and 3 patients (2.8%) died. Univariate analysis showed that history of hepatobiliary surgery, gender, activation of partial thromboplastin time, alkaline phosphatase, use of choledochoscopy, postoperative stone residual, serum creatinine, postoperative biliary drainage and operation time were risk factors that may affect long-term outcomes (all P<0.15) . Multivariate analysis showed that the history of previous hepatobiliary surgery (OR=2.305, 95% CI: 0.383-4.227, P=0.019) , postoperative biliary drainage (OR=2.043, 95% CI: 0.182-4.209, P=0.048) , operation time ≥262.5 minutes (OR=1.971, 95% CI: 0.154-4.023, P=0.045) were independent risk factor affecting long-term outcomes. Based on the above factors, the predictive nomogram model was constructed. Internal and external validations showed good discrimination (area under the curve of receiver operating curve>0.7) and calibration (Hosmer-Lemeshow test: P>0.05) performance, which indicated that the prediction effect was favorable. Conclusions History of previous hepatobiliary surgery, postoperative biliary drainage and operation time ≥262.5 minutes are independent risk factors for long-term outcome. The predictive nomogram model based on risk factors relates to surgical outcomes presented good clinical predictive effects, which might contribute to the prediction of the long-term outcomes of laparoscopic left sided hepatectomy for hepatolithiasis.

Objective To evaluate the effect of donor age on short-term survival of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) after lung transplantation. Methods Clinical data of 235 IPF donors and recipients of lung transplantation were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression models were employed to analyze the correlation between donor age and short-term mortality rate of IPF patients after lung transplantation. Kaplan-Meier was used to draw the survival curve. Results Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that donor age was correlated with the 1-year fatality of IPF patients after lung transplantation. The 1-year fatality of recipients after lung transplantation was increased by 0.020 times if donor age was increased by 1 year (P=0.009). Oxygenation index of the donors, preoperative oxygenation index, preoperative lung allocation score, preoperative N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide, pattern of transplantation, pattern of intraoperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and intraoperative blood transfusion volume of the recipients were correlated with 1-year fatality after lung transplantation (all P < 0.1). Multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that there was no correlation between donor age and 30-, 90-, 180-d and 1-year fatality of IPF patients after lung transplantation (all P > 0.05). Sensitivity analysis showed that there was no significant difference in 30-, 90-, 180-d and 1-year fatality after lung transplantation among donors aged < 18, 18-33, 34-49 and ≥50 years (all P > 0.05). Conclusions Donor age exerts no effect upon short-term survival of IPF patients after lung transplantation. Considering the mechanical ventilation time, oxygenation index, infection and other factors of donors, the age range of lung transplant donors may be expanded.
