Objective A retrospective study of GCTTS in the hand was undertaken to determine whether specific clinic or pathologic factors were associated with an increased risk of recurrence, and to investigate the relationship between the recurrence of GCTTS and its biological indices. Methods 83 patients with histologically proven GCTTS were treated and followed up. The clinical materials were reviewed. Comparison was made between certain factors to determine which were associated with increased recurrence rates. Results The patients were followed for an average of 55 months. 22 patients (26.5%) recurred. Age, gender, site, the origin of tumors, size, bone erosion or destruction, cellularity and the mitoses were not risk factors for recurrence. Tumors without capsule had higher recurrence rate than that with capsule, and the difference was highly significant. The local recurrence rate of Nm23 positive group was 28.3%, and Nm23 negative group was 19.2%, there was no remarkable difference between the groups. The PCNA-LI was 0.448?0.130 in recurrent group and 0.358?0.147 in nonrecurrent group, the difference was statistically significant. The aneuploidy DNA content was presented in 50% of the recurrent tumors, and in 23.2% of nonrecurrent ones. The SPF was 6.98?4.64 in recurrent group and 4.70?2.49 in nonrecurrent group. These values were also significantly different. PCNA-LI, the aneuploidy DNA content and SPF were significantly higher in group without capsule than those in group with capsule. These values were not different between tumors with and without bone destruction, large and small diameter, high and low cellular tumors, as well as high and low mitoses tumors. Conclusion The high proliferative indices of recurrent GCTTS may explain its aggressive biologic behavior. Tumors without capsule possess higher proliferative indices than the ones with capsule, and they have higher recurrent rate. The proliferative indices of the tumors with and without bone distruction are comparable, and the difference of the recurrence rate among groups is not significant.

Objective To study the adverse effects of outdoor air pollution on children's respiratory system health in Anshan city. Methods 1951 children were randomly selected from three areas with different degree of air pollution in Anshan city. The parents of the children were asked to answer a questionnaire about their children's respiratory health and home environment. The data of health were collected included persistent cough, persistent phlegm, asthma, current asthma, wheeze, and wheeze symptom. Results The prevalence rates of persistent cough, persistent phlegm, asthma, current asthma, wheeze and wheeze symptom were 9.48%, 4.82%, 1.33%, 0.92%, 6.30% and 4.97% respectively. Outdoor air pollution was a risk factor for persistent cough and persistent phlegm. The respiratory symptoms increased as the house became near to the main traffic lines. Combined effect of susceptible factor and outdoor air pollution was obvious, the prevalence rates of respiratory diseases were higher in the susceptible children who were influenced by the other risk factors compared with those who were not influenced by the same factors. Conclusion Outdoor air pollution is an important factor which will damage children's respiratory system in Anshan city.

Objective To explore the advantages and characteristics of pathology experimental teaching based on WeChat public platform. Method Through the establishment ofhomogeneous pathol-ogy experiment platform—WeChat public platform, the students of clinical medicine major of Class 1 and 2 of Grade 2014 who participated in the pathological experiment course were divided into two groups. The experimental group (65 people) used the auxiliary teaching based on the WeChat public platform, and the control group (65 people) used the traditional teaching method. The students in the experimental group used the WeChat public platform in combination with pathology experimental teaching, pushing the experimental teaching by WeChat public platform, including the change of specimen and eye diseases under the micro-scope of typical pictures and videos, and at the same time pushing the typical disease image and the related text introduction, and auxiliary pathology experimental teaching. The effect of teaching was evaluated by student experimental examination and electronic questionnaire. The data were collated after the entry of SPSS 19.0, and the data comparison was performed by t test. Result The average score of the experimental group (14.80±0.24) was significantly higher than that of the traditional teaching group (13.79±0.33), and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.031). The experimental group students' evaluation on the learning of WeChat based public platform was higher than the control group's evaluation on traditional teaching in the aspects of learning interest, reducing learning pressure and feedback. Conclusion The application of WeChat public platform for the teaching of pathological experiments is feasible compared with the traditional teaching model and can improve the teaching effect effectively, and solve the problems of the pathology experiment teaching sample being insufficient or the teaching sample being not typical, which creates conditions for students to study independently and use specimens and pictures.

Objective To investigate the significantly elevated incidence of hepatitis C and mortality of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in Jianping county, and to explore the epidemiological features. Methods The data from database of death registry and infectious disease surveillance in Jianping county, Liaoning Province were analyzed. The distributions of incidence of hepatitis B and hepatitis C, mortality of cirrhosis and HCC in 23 villages and towns were investigated.Spearman's correlation was used to explore the correlations between hepatitis, cirrhosis and HCC.Results The standardized mortality of HCC in males and females in Jianping county were 77. 6/10~5and 22. 0/10~5, respectively, which were 2. 0 and 1. 7 times, respectively of the average levels of Liaoning rural areas. The incidence of hepatitis C was 58. 0/10~5 , which was 9. 5 times of the averagelevel of Liaoning Province. There were positive correlations between incidence of hepatitis C and mortality of cirrhosis (r=0. 495, P = 0. 008), and mortality of cirrhosis and HCC (r=0. 646, P<0.01). Conclusions The incidence of hepatitis C and mortality of cirrhosis and HCC in Jianping county are significantly higher than the average levels of Liaoning Province. Further investigations of the suspected causes are needed.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of low anterior resection syndrome (LARS)after low anterior resection of rectal cancer (Dixon).Methods:This retrospective study was conducted in Peking University First Hospital and Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Shanxi Provice from Jan 2012 to Jun 2019. A cohort of 504 patients with rectal cancer was enrolled in the study. All the patients underwent anterior resection. The relationship between clinical-pathological data were analyzed retrospectively. Univariate analysis using χ 2 test. Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the influencing factors of LARS, and the Nomogram method was used to score each factors. Results:Univariate analysis showed that BMI≥28 kg/m 2(χ 2=9.450, P=0.002), the distance from the lower edge of the tumors to the anus <6 cm (χ 2=12.070, P=0.001), high ligation of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) (χ 2=8.279, P=0.004), preoperative neoadjuvant therapy (χ 2=11.230, P=0.001), postoperative anastomotic leakage (χ 2=11.840, P=0.001) were associated with severe LARS.Multivariate analysis showed that the distance from the lower edge of the tumors to the anus <6 cm ( OR=1.861, 95% CI: 1.289-2.688, P=0.001), BMI≥28 kg/m 2 ( OR=1.747, 95% CI: 1.022-2.987, P=0.041), high IMA ligation ( OR=1.688, 95% CI: 1.157-2.463, P=0.007), preoperative neoadjuvant therapy ( OR=2.719, 95% CI: 1.343-5.505, P=0.005) were independent risk factors for LARS. Nomogram model showed that the total factor ranged from 2 to 212, and the corresponding risk rate ranged from 30% to 80%. The patients with higher score have greater risk for severe LARS. The area under the predictive power curve of Nomogram model (AUC) was 0.749 (95% CI: 0.705-0.793, P<0.001). Conclusion:Lower tumor location, obesity, preoperative neoadjuvant therapy, high IMA ligation and postoperative anastomotic leakage increase the risk of severe LARS.

Objective To analyze 10 years survival status of urban female patients with corpus uteri cancer and its influencing factors in Liaoning Province. Methods Based on Liaoning cancer register database, 426 patients with corpus uteri cancer in Shenyang, Anshan and Benxi from 2000 to 2002 were randomly selected. They were followed up passively and actively. Life table method and Ederer Ⅱ method were used to calculate the observed survival rate (OSR), the expected survival rate (ESR) and the relative survival rate (RSR). Results We finally included 218 corpus uteri patients. The diagnosis proportions of stage Ⅰ-Ⅳ were 59.2%, 11.5%, 11.0% and 8.7%, respectively. Ten-year RSR and OSR were 59.6% and 67.9%. The diagnosis stage was negatively correlated with 10-year RSR. The 10-year RSR of patients treated with surgery was 71.3%, which was 6.6 times that of non-surgical treatment (10.8%). The 1-year RSR to 10-year RSR ranged from 88.4% to 67.5%. The RSR of each stage was Ⅰ-Ⅱ(95.7%-77.9%) > Ⅲ (71.4%-44.5%) > Ⅳ (58.4%-11.0%). Multivariate Cox model analysis showed that age > 55 years old, late diagnosis stage and non-surgical treatment were the main factors affecting the 10-year survival rate. Conclusion Early diagnosis and surgical treatment can significantly improve the long-term survival rate of patients. Therefore, we should strengthen the early detection and treatment of corpus uteri cancer, standardize and strengthen the screening program.

PURPOSE: The cancer survival was characterized by following up sampled subgroups of cancer cases from three population-based cancer registries in Northeast China. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Survival analysis was used to analyze 6,871 patients, who had one of the 21 most common cancers based on sampling from the population-based cancer registries of three cities in Liaoning Province. All patients were diagnosed between 2000 and 2002 and were followed up to the end of 2007 by active and passive methods. The 5-year age standardized relative survival rates (ASRS) were estimated for all cancers combined and each of the 21 individual cancers. RESULTS: The survival status was traced for 80.8% of 8,506 sampled cancer cases. The 5-year ASRS for all 21 cancers combined was 41.5% (95% confidence interval, 40.3 to 42.7), the highest ASRS was observed for thyroid cancer (85.2%), breast cancer (78.9%), uterine corpus cancer (75.9%), and urinary bladder cancer (70.2%); the lowest 5-year ASRS was noted in pancreatic cancer (8.8%), liver cancer (11.0%), esophageal cancer (18.8), and lung cancer (19.6%). The cancer survival rates in Liaoning cities were similar to those of urban areas in mainland China, but significantly lower than those in Hong Kong, Korea, and Japan. CONCLUSION: The strikingly poor cancer survival rates in three cities of Liaoning Province and in other places in China highlight the need for urgent investment in cancer prevention, early detection, and standardized and centralized treatment.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis of rectal neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs).

METHODSFrom January 2000 to May 2017, 84 patients were diagnosed as NENs by pathology and underwent surgical treatment in Peking University First Hospital. Their clinicopathological characteristics, surgial options and prognosis were analyzed retrospectively.

RESULTAmong these 84 cases, 67 cases were NET G1, 6 cases were NET G2, 10 cases were NEC G3 and 1 case was MANEC G3. The median size was 0.8 (0.2 to 18.0) cm. There were 60 cases of stage I(, 2 cases of stage II(, 12 cases of stage III(, 10 cases of stage IIII(. Forty-nine patients accepted examinations because of non-specific symptoms, including altered bowel habits(22/49), bloody stool (19/49) and abdominal pain(10/49); the other 35 cases including 2 patients with liver metastasis were diagnosed by endoscopy or CT during routine physical examination. Forty-four patients received endoscopic ultrasonography(EUS) with 100% of sensitivity and 90.9% of accuracy. Among 20 cases (23.8%) with lymph node metastasis (all ≥T2 stage), 12 cases were NET G1 and G2 (1 case of multiple NET G1) and 8 cases were NEC G3 and MANEC G3. The lymph node metastasis rate of stage T1 NET G1 and G2 was lower than that of stage T2 to T4 NET G1 and G2, also lower than that of NEC G3 and MANEC G3 (all P=0.000), however, stage T2 to T4 NET G1 and G2 showed the similar rate of lymph node metastasis with NEC G3 and MANCE G3(P>0.05). Synchronously distant metastasis was found in 10 (11.9%) patients at the first diagnosis, and ovarian metastasis was found in 1 case 9 years after curative resection of rectal NEN. Among 81 patients receiving operation, 57 patients underwent endoscopic mucosal resection (56 patients of stage T1 NET G1 and G2); 3 patients local excision without lymph node dissection; 13 patients curative resection; 1 patient curative resection with liver metastasis resection; 6 patients palliative surgery and 1 patient metastatic lesion resection only. Overall follw-up time was 1 month to 169 months, and the 3- and 5-year survival rates were 87.7% and 79.7% respectively. No recurrence or metastasis was observed in all the 62 patients with T1 G1 and G2, including 56 cases of ESD, 3 cases of local excision, 3 cases of curative resection, whose 3-year and 5-year survival rates were both 96%. The prognosis was closely associated with grade and stage of NENs (all P=0.000).

CONCLUSIONSThe early symptoms of rectal NENs are insidious and atypical, therefore some patients are diagnosed as stage II( or higher at their first consultation. ESD is safe and effective for NET G1 and G2. The prognosis depends on grade and stage of NENs.
