Objective To investigate the expression of gastric and intestinal phenotypic markers in Siewert typeⅡand Ⅲ early gastroesophageal junction(GEJ) cancer, and to explore its correlation with clinic-pathological features.Methods From April 2010 to July 2015, 53 cases diagnosed as early GEJ cancer were enrolled.The gastric and intestinal phenotypic markers such as mucin5AC(MUC5AC),mucin6(MUC6),mucin2(MUC2),caudal related homeodomain transcription 2(CDX2) and cluster of differentiation 10(CD10) were detected, and then the patients were divided into gastric type, gastrointestinal type, intestinal type and non-classified type according to the results of immunohistochemical staining.Combined with Siewert classification the clinicopathological features were analyzed.Chi square test or Fisher′s exact test was performed for statistical analysis.Results In the cancer tissues of 47 patients with Siewert type Ⅱand Ⅲ early GEJ cancer, the case numbers of positive expression of MUC5AC,MUC6,MUC2, CDX2 and CD10 were 21(44.7%),19(40.4%),31(66.0%),27(57.4%) and 17(36.2%),respectively;the case numbers of gastric type, gastrointestinal type, intestinal type and non-classified type were 11(23.4%),14(29.8%),21(44.7%) and one(2.1%), respectively.The positive expression rates of MUC5AC and MUC6 in Siewert typeⅡwere 55.9%(19/34) and 50.0%(17/34),which were higher than those of Siewert typeⅢ(2/13), and the positive expression rate of MUC2 was 55.9%(19/34), which was lower than that of Siewert typeⅢ(12/13), and the differences were statistically significant (x2=6.240,4.679 and 4.053;all P<0.05).In Siewert typeⅡ, the proportion of intestinal type was 32.4%(11/34), which was lower than that of Siewert typeⅢ(10/13), and the differences were statistically significant (x2=7.142,P=0.010).In patients with Siewert typeⅡand Ⅲ early cancer, males predominated in intestinal type which were mostly well differentiated type with less submucosal carcinoma.The maximum diameter of tumor was less than those of gastric type and gastrointestinal type.In paracancerous mucosal tissues, the incidences of intestinal metaplasia in gastrointestinal type and intestinal type were 11/14 and 81.0%(17/21), which were higher than that of gastric type (3/11);the incidences of atrophy in gastrointestinal type and intestinal type were 12/14 and 85.7%(18/21),which were higher than that of gastric type (4/11),and the differences were statistically significant (Fisher′s exact test,all P<0.05).Conclusions Siewert typeⅡand Ⅲ early GEJ cancer can directly originated not only from gastric mucosa, but also from gastrointestinal and intestinal mucosa.Atrophy and intestinal metaplasia could exist before cancer genesis.

Objective To evaluate the effects of body position and cuffed endotracheal tube (cETT) position on the intracuff pressure during tonsillectomy in the pediatric patients.Methods Sixty pediatric patients,aged 3-12 yr,scheduled for elective tonsillectomy under general anesthesia,were divided into group A and group B using a random number table,with 30 patients in each group.The cETTs were placed on one side of the blade of Davis retractor in group A.The cETTs were placed between the blade of Davis retractor and the body of tongue in group B.The intracuff pressure was recorded when the head was in the neutral position (T1),after changing to the head back position (T2) and when the retractor was placed for operation (T3).Results The intracuff pressure was significantly higher at T2 than at T1 in the two groups (P＜0.01).The intracuff pressure was significantly higher at T3 in group A and lower at T3 in group B than at T2 (P＜0.01).Compared with group A,the intracuff pressure was significantly decreased at T3 (P＜0.01),and no significant change was found in the intracuff pressure at T1,2 in group B (P＞0.05).Conclusion The intracuff pressure is affected by body position and cETT position during tonsillectomy in the pediatric patients,and routine monitoring of the intracuff pressure is recommended.

In order to study the significance of CD276 and CD133 in the development and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC),the expression of CD276 and CD133 was detected by immunohistochemistry in CRC and precancerous lesions.The results showed that the intensity of CD276 and CD133 in CRC samples was higher than that in adenoma group and non-adenoma group.CD276 and CD133 single and double positive expression were significantly correlated with CRC lymph node metastasis,distant metastasis and survival.CD276 and CD133 are significantly correlated to the development and progression of CRC and associated with poor prognosis.

Objective: To analyse the clinicopathologic features of gastric plexiform fibromyxoma (PF) including diagnosis, differential diagnosis, immunohistochemistry and molecular pathology. Methods: Eight cases of PF were collected from June 2006 to June 2017 at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University and the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. The clinicopathologic findings of eight cases of PF were retrospectively analyzed, and immunohistochemistry (EnVision method) and molecular detection of glioma-associated oncogene homologue 1 (GLI1) gene translocation were performed. All cases were histologically reviewed with immunohistochemical staining for smooth muscle actin (SMA), CD10, CD117, DOG1, CD34, ER, PR, ALK and S-100. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to detect the GLI1 gene translocation, and mutation of CKIT exons 9, 11, 13 and 17; and PDGFRA exons 12, 14 and 18 were identified by Sanger sequencing in four cases. Relevant literature was reviewed. Results: The study included four men and four women, age ranged from 26 to 72 years (mean 51 years). Histologically, the tumors were rich in small thin-walled blood vessels and myxoid matrix, and exhibited multiple nodular growth pattern in the gastric wall. The tumor cells were bland, spindled or oval. Immunohistochemically, all cases strongly expressed vimentin and SMA, and some expressed CD10 (4/8), desmin (3/8), H-caldesmon (5/8) and PR (5/8), but were negative for CD34, S-100, ER, ALK, CD117 and DOG1. The GLI1 gene translocation detection was performed in eight cases by FISH with three positive cases and five negative cases. Mutation analyses for exons 9, 11, 13, and 17 of CKIT genes and exons 12, 14, and 18 of the PDGFRA genes were performed and the tumors all of four tested cases were wild-type. Seven patients were followed up (ranged from 24 to 95 months, mean 50 months) after diagnosis and none of the patients had recurrence or metastasis. Conclusions PF is a rare novel mesenchymal tumor of the stomach. Its distinct clinicopathologic features and immunohistochemical positivity for SMA, CD10 and PR can help differentiating this entity from other gastrointestinal mesenchymal tumors. FISH detection of GLI1 gene translocation offers an additional molecular diagnostic marker for the diagnosis.

Objective: To study clinical and pathologic characteristics of leiomyomas of the gastrointestinal tract, and to investigate the distribution characteristics of interstitial cells of Cajal ( ICCs ) in gastrointestinal leiomyomas. Methods: One hundred and forty-seven cases of leiomyomas of gastrointestinal tract were collected at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from June 2012 to June 2017. Clinical and pathologic findings were analyzed, combined with immunohistochemistry, Alcian blue-osafranin staining and molecular study. Results: The age of patients ranged from 13-82 years with mean age of 52 years. Male to female ratio was about 1∶2. Histologically, all tumors were composed of ovoid to spindle cells arranged in short intersecting fascicles. All tumors were diffusely and strongly positive for smooth muscle antibodies, desmin and h-caldesmon by immunohistochemical staining. A prominent interspersed subpopulation of elongated/dendritic-like cells with CD117 and DOG1 positivity (accounting for 1% to 30% of all tumor cells) and negative for Alcian blue-osafranin staining was identified in all esophageal leiomyomas, 16 of 20 (80%) gastric leiomyomas and 3 of 12 small bowel leiomyomas, but none in colonic/rectal leiomyomas. Mutational analysis in 16 cases showed absence of mutation in exons 9, 11, 13 or 17 of C-KIT and exons 12 or 18 of PDGFRA. Conclusions ICCs are identified in esophageal and gastric leiomyomas, as well as in small percentage of intestinal leiomyomas. Such findings may bring significant diagnostic pitfalls for misdiagnosis as gastrointestinal stromal tumor. Careful attention to the distribution of CD117 and DOG1 positive cells and molecular mutation analysis of C-KIT and PDGFRA may be necessary to establish the correct diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the basic clinical features in 371 cases of colorectal polyps and its relationship with fecal occult blood and carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA).Methods The retrospective analysis was performed on 371 inpatients with colo-rectal polyps.The relationship among gender,number of polyps and polyps anatomical site in different ages of patients was investi-gated,and the relationship between fecal occult blood and CEA with polyp canceration was analyzed by 1.5?3.0 years follow-up. Results Among 371 cases of colorectal polyps,the female patients were gradually increased and single polyp was gradually de-creased along with the age increase;due to different ages,there was the statistically significant difference in the polyp locations (χ2 =9.759,P=0.045);the distribution difference of the patients with polyp canceration among three age groups was statistically significant(χ2 =5.138,4.107,13.153,P<0.05).The cases of fecal occult blood positive and CEA abnormal increase were gradual-ly increased with age increasing(χ2 =15.544,11.959,P<0.01);with the number of polyps increasing,the cases of fecal occult blood positive showed the increasing trend(χ2 =14.043,P=0.001);the canceration rate in colorectal polyp cases of fecal occult blood positive and CEA abnormal increase was significantly higher than that in the cases of fecal occult blood negative and CEA normal range(χ2 =40.165,43.249,all of P< 0.001).Conclusion The fecal occult blood test and CEA detection results have a certain significance to the follow up for preventing colorectal polyps canceration.

Objective: To investigate the clinical and pathologic features, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of hypertrophic port-wine stain (PWS). Methods: Cases of hypertrophic PWS, collected from Henan Provincial People′s Hospital between 2012 and 2018, were retrospectively analyzed for their clinical and pathologic features, immunophenotype and histochemical data, and the relevant literature was reviewed. Results: Twenty-four cases of PWS were included in this cohort, located in the head and neck region (20 cases), limbs (2 cases), and trunk (2 cases). The clinical presentations were mainly red or purple-red plaques or slow growing, painless nodules, or thickened and raised above the skin surface. Microscopically, deformed blood vessels showed honeycomb-like, plexiform or cluster-like growth pattern, and diffusely involved the dermis, skin appendages, subcutaneous fat tissue, and deep skeletal muscles; The vascular lumen of the deformed vessels was dilated (≥100 μm in diameter), and in 18 cases the lumen was greater than 400 μm. The superficial dermis mainly contained few deformed capillaries. The deep wall showed thickening of blood vessel wall and fibrous tissue hyperplasia. Elastic fiber and Masson staining indicated abnormal venous vessel, which in some cases contained small amount of abnormal arterioid vessel,without vascular endothelial cell proliferation in all cases. In 24 cases, 19 cases had epidermal atrophy, 6 with vascular chronic inflammation or epidermal ulcer, 4 with capillary hemangioma, 4 with sebaceous gland hyperplasia, 2 with epidermal papillary hyperplasia and 2 with vascular keratomas. Conclusions PWS is a common congenital capillary malformation. The number of histologically deformed capillaries is reduced and they usually locate in the superficial part. The deep vascular wall is increased with thick venous malformation, diffusely involving the dermis and deep skeletal muscle. Furthermore, PWS needs to be differentiated from infantile hemangioma, cavernous hemangioma and vascular keratomas.

OBJECTIVE： To provide scientific evidence for establishing perfect rationality evaluation indicator system of antibiotics. METHODS： On the basis of literature research， Delphi method was used to conduct several rounds of consultations on 30 experts in related fields with E-mail and questionnaire field investigation. After several rounds of consultations， rationality evaluation index system for antibiotics was determined. The effective recovery rate of expert consultation questionnaire was used to express the positive coefficient of experts； the authoritative coefficient was used to express the authoritative degree of experts； the index importance assignment and the full score ratio were used to reflect the concentration degree of experts’ opinions； the coefficient of variation and the coefficient of coordination were used to express the coordination degree of experts’ opinions. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS： After two rounds of consultations， response rates of the questionnaire in two rounds of surveys were 100％ and 96.67％， indicating experts were highly motivated. The authoritative coefficients were 0.91 and 0.88， indicating experts had a high degree of authority. Finally， an evaluation index system for rationality of antibiotics was established， which included four first-level indicators （indications， drug selection， medication process， management indicators） and 35 second-level indicators. Among them， the mean value of importance scoring of first-level indicators ranged from 4.28 to 5.00， the full score ratio from 0.93 to 1.00， the coefficient of variation from 0.00 to 0.15 and the coefficient of coordination was 0.446 （P＜0.001）. While， the mean value of importance scoring of second-level indicators ranged from 3.83 to 4.79； the full score ratio from 0.67 to 1.00； variation coefficient from 0.10 to 0.26 and the coefficient of coordination was 0.115 （P＜0.001）， which indicating the system was reliable.
