Objective To evaluate the role of serum CA125 level in diagnosing the epithelial ovarian tumor.Methods Serum CA125 level of seventy-two patients who were operated for epithelial ovarian tumor between Apr 2005 and Jun 2007 in PUMC hospital were recruited and analyzed retrospectively.Using microparticle enzyme immunoassay(MEIA) to determine the serum CA125 level,and evaluate the serum CA125 level in diagnosing epithelial ovarian cancer.Results The CA125 was higher than 35?/ml in 35/39 ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma cases with 89.7% positive rate,CA125 was higher than 35?/ml in 9/12 ovarian borderline serous cystadenoma with 75% positive rate,and CA125 was higher than 35?/ml in 4/21 ovarian serous cystadenoma with 19% positive rate.Conclusion The serum CA125 level before operation can predict benign epithelial tumor or epithelial ovarian cancer.

Objective To highlight the role of physician's experience in physical examination for the early diagnosis of breast cancer.Methods Data of physical examination of mammary glands in 1785 female were analyzed and compare with the uhrasonography and mammngraphy results.Results Of the 31 breast cancers confirmed by pathologic examination after operation,2 cases were bilateral breast cancers and 1 was nonpalpable.9 of 41 cases which suspected by inspection were confirmed as breast cancers.The significant difference was found comparing with control group by X2 test (X2=100.5,P＜0.05).The 34 breast cancers were found in 2089 focus in palpation and there were 6 minimal cancers (diameter≤1.0 cm) among them.Some cancers were found in special location with no malignant clinical manifestation.The rate of missed diagnosis of ultrasonography and rnammography is 16.1% and 19.4%,respectively.Conclusions Physical examination plays an important role in the early detection of breast cancer and physician's experience is a major determinant for avoiding misdiagnosis.

Objective To assess the value of SureTouch tactile breast imaging (SureTouch) in early breast disease detection.Methods From April 2009 to March 2011,16 010 adults received health checkup in our center,5000 of whom took breast screening and were randonly selected to accept SureTouch.The results of the SureTouch were reviewed.Results In SureTouch,799 participants were normal,resulting in an abnormal rate of 84.02％.Four thousands and nineteen adults were found with breast hyperplasias (80.38％) and 150 with breast nodulars (3.00％),and another 32 women were suspected with malignant condition (0.64％).Breast hyperplasia was the most commonly seen disease in all age groups,although breast nodular and malignant changes were mainly found in 35-50 age group.The incidence of malignant disease showed a trend of affecting younger females.Pathological follow-up results of two controversial cases supported the diagnosis of SureTouch.Conclusions SureTouch shows high sensitivity in this study.The application of SureTouch in breast screening may play an important role in the early detection,diagnosis and treatment of breast diseases.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) among adults in rural areas of Ningxia Hui autonomous region.Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in 10 639 adults enrolled with a multistage method from Jingyuan County.The MS was identified according to Chinese type 2 diabetes prevention guide (2013).Results Among all the subjects, 17.4% of them met the MS definition with the standardized prevalence of 14.7% after adjustment of sex and age.The prevalence and standardized rate of MS in men were 19.9% and 17.3%, and in women were 15.3% and 13.5%.The prevalence of MS in men was higher than that in women(P<0.001) and increased with aging in both genders.The prevalence and standardized rate of abdominal obesity,hyperglycemia,hypertension,high triglycerides,and low HDL-C were 19.5% and 16.7%, 15.0% and 12.9%, 42.0% and 37.1%, 25.8% and 23.1%, 28.5% and 27.7%,respectively.The rate of abdominal obesity was higher in women than in men (20.5% vs 18.2%, P=0.004), whereas the rate of hypertension, high triglycerides, and low HDL-C were higher in men than in women (all P<0.01).The prevalence of having one parameter of the MS was 68.4%.Conclusion The prevalence of MS is higher in rural areas of Ningxia Hui autonomous region, suggesting that a series of comprehensive prevention measures should be carried out to prevent and control the MS so as to improve the public health conditions in rural areas.

Objective: To investigate the outcomes of coarctation resection and aortoplasty with autologous pulmonary artery patch for treating coarctation of the aorta combined with hypoplastic aortic arch in infants. Methods: Clinical data of 21 infants with coarctation of the aorta and hypoplastic aortic arch, who underwent coarctation resection and aortoplasty with autologous pulmonary artery patch in Fuwai hospital from January 2009 to June 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. The age of the patients was 4 (2, 5) months,and the body weight of the patients was (5.3±1.6) kg. The patients were followed up to observe the surgery effect. Results: No perioperative death and serious complications occurred. When the patients were discharged,the systolic blood pressure of the right upper limb was lower than the preoperative systolic blood pressure ((85.7±5.9) mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) vs. (100.7±16.6) mmHg, P<0.001),and the systolic blood pressure of the right lower limb was higher than the preoperative systolic blood pressure ((98.7±13.3) mmHg vs. (85.6±20.8) mmHg, P<0.001). The pressure gradient of aortic coarctation detected by echocardiography was lower than the preoperative pressure gradient ((13.1±3.8) mmHg vs. (46.2±17.1) mmHg, P<0.001). No restenosis was detected by echocardiography at discharge. Follow-up data were obtained in 19 patients, and the follow-up time was 18 (8, 45) months.The patients grew well, and no death occurred. Restenosis occurred in 3 cases, 1 patient underwent aortic balloon dilatation and the remaining 2 patients were under follow up observation. Computed tomography angiography showed that the morphology of aortic arch was normal without signs of aortic aneurysm. Conclusion Coarctation resection with autologous pulmonary artery patch aortoplastystrategy is considered as a safe and effective surgical method for management of infant coarctation with hypoplastic aortic arch, and this surgery method is related with satisfactory early and mid-term outcomes in this patient cohort.

Objective     To compare the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients who received two different intraventricular repair. Methods     We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 24 complete transposition of the great arteries (TGA)/left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) patients who all received intraventricular repair. The patients were allocated into two groups including a REV group and a Rastelli group. There were 13 patients with 9 males and 4 females at median age of 25.2 (6, 72) months in the REV group. There were 11 patients with 10 males and 1 female at median age of 47.9 (14, 144) months in the Rastelli group. Results     The age at operation (P=0.041), pulmonary valve Z value (P=0.002), and LVOT gradient (P=0.004), rate of multiphase operation between the REV group and the Rastelli group was statistically different. The mean follow-up time was 17.3 months. And during the follow-up, 1 patient had early mortality, 2 patients had early reintervention, 7 patients had postoperative RVOTO, and received Rastelli and larger VSD inner diameter were associated with postoperative RVOTO. Conclusion     As the traditional surgery for TGA/LVOTO patients, the intraventricular repair has a low early mortality and low early reintervention. Modified REV is associated with postoperative peripheral pulmonary vein isolation (PVIS). Patients who received Rastelli operation and with larger VSD inner diameter are more likely to have postoperative RVOTO, but the reintervention for PVI and   RVOTO during follow up is very low.
