Clinical Medicine of China 2012;28(10):1101-1103
Objective To investigate the correlation of serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) with clinical pathological factors and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma ( HCC ).Methods Two hundred and twenty patients with HCC who hospitalized in our hospital from January 2007 to June 2009 were enrolled in this study.The relationship of AFP levels before operation to clinical pathological factors such as pathological grade,tumor size,tumor encapsulation,tumor numbers,portal vein tumor thrombus,TNM stage and postoperative recurrence were analyzed.Results Serum AFP concentration before operation were related with tumor size ( x2 =11.76,P < 0.05 ),tumor encapsulation ( x2 =17.07,P < 0.05 ),portal vein tumor thrombus ( x2 =8.944,P < 0.05 ),higher TNM stage ( x2 =4.929,P < 0.05 ) and early postoperative recurrence rate ( x2 =5.569,P < 0.05 ).However,it had no correlation with pathological edmondson grade tumor numbers.Conclusion HCC patients with high serum AFP concentration often has greater tumor without encapsulation,high occurrence rate of portal vein tumor thrombus and higher TNM stage,they are more likely to early postoperative recurrence.Serum AFP before operation is useful not only for diagnosis,but also as a prognostic biomarker to predict prognosis and recurrence.
2.Analysis of clinical characteristics and influecing factors of interpectoral lymph nodes metastasis in modified radical mastectomy of breast cancer
Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2015;38(1):44-47
Objective To analyze the occurrence rate,positive rate,and other related factors influencing interpectoral lymph nodes in breast cancer patients,and to explore the significance and indications of the surgical dissection of interpectoral lympy nodes.Methods Clinical and pathological data from 148 breast cancer patients were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were subjected to modified radical mastectomy,and interpectoral lympy nodes were pathologically examined.The occurrence rate and metastasis of interpectoral lympy nodes were recorded,and the relationship between the interpectoral lympy nodes positive rate and tumor size,axillary nodes,clinical stages,neo-adjuvant chemotherapy,hormone receptors,human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (Her-2) expression,and molecular subtypes of breast cancer were determined.Results The occurrence rate,overall metastasis rate,and the positive rate of interpectoral lympy nodes in patients with axillary lymph node metastasis were 13.5%(20/148),4.7%(7/148),and 10.9% (7/64),respectively.I nterpectoral lympy nodes metastasis was significantly correlated with axillary node metastasis and clinical stages (P< 0.05).However,interpectoral lympy nodes metastasis was not significantly related with hormone receptor and Her-2 expressions(P > 0.05).Interpectoral lympy nodes metastasis rate was not affected by neo-adjuvant chemotherapy.Patients with interpectoral lympy nodes metastasis were characterized by larger tumors,more positive axillary lymph nodes,and later chnical stages.Conclusions Interpectoral lympy nodes metastasis usually occurs in patients with larger tumors,more positive axillary lymph nodes,later clinical stages,as well as those with locally advanced cancer that meets the standard of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy.These indications suggest that the surgical dissection and pathological examination of interpectoral lymph nodes should be routinely performed.

5.Fracture resistance of nanofilled composite resin restoration for the treatment of incisally fractured incisors:An in vitro study
Journal of Practical Stomatology 2016;32(6):830-833
Objective:To study the fracture resistance of nanofilled composite resin restoration for the treatment of incisally fractured in-cisors. Methods:30 extracted permanent maxillary central incisors were randomly divided into A, B and C groups (n=10). In group A and B, the teeth were cut obliquely from the mesial incisal angle. Labial reduction of 0. 5 mm for veneer and dovetails in the lingual surfaces were prepared. In group A, additional 2mm of the incisal edge were cut horizontally. The teeth were restored with nanofilled com-posite resin. The samples in group C were unprepared as the controls. The specimens were stored in artificial saliva and underwent 2 000 cycles of thermal cycling test. Fracture resistance of the teeth was measured by a test machine and the fracture mode was observed. Re-sults:The mean fracture load(N) of group A, B and C was 466.93 ±171.68, 444.5 ±173.00 and 474.77 ±97.55 respectively(P>0. 05). All fractures in the 2 test groups but 1 in the control group were in a favorable way. Conclusion:Incisally fractured incisors restored with nanofilled composite resins can achieve the fracture resistance similar to that of intact natural tooth. Failure modes of the restored teeth are in favorable way. Additional cut of 2 mm of the incisal edge dose not affect the fracture resistance of the restored teeth.

It is well documented that vascular tone is the key determinant of blood vessel resistance and blood flow. But vascular tone could be regulated by modulating the activity of potassium channel directly. Potassium channel openers promote vasodilation by inhibiting the activity of voltage dependent calcium channels and reducing Ca 2+ influx. In this case, inhibition results from membrane hyperpolarisation, which arises due to the stimulation of K + efflux through smooth muscle K + channels. While K + channels are blocked, vasoconstriction could be observed as a result of membrane depolarization, which opens voltage dependent calcium channels. The influx of Ca 2+ can promote smooth muscle contraction by making myosin light chain phosphorylation and arising thick myofilament and thin myofilament relative movements. In this article, the gene structure, current character, Pharmacological and physiological effects of the four subtypes potassium channels are reviewed.

Gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumor is a group of heterogeneous tumors and was considered as a rare tumor.According to the data of recent years,its incidence has been increased significantly.The clinical manifestations of gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors are varied,and serum chromogranin-A is considered the most important biomarker of both non-functioning and functioning neuroendocrine tumors.The traditional imaging examination and somatostatin receptor scintigraphy are helpful to diagnosis.Its treatments include surgery,biological treatment,radionuclide therapy and chemical therapy.The aim of this paper is to summarize briefly the clinical symptoms,diagnostic methods and treatment options of gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors.
9.Advances of immunologic dysregulation mechanism in biliary atresia
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2014;29(17):1342-1345
Biliary atresia(BA) is a destructive inflammatory obliterative cholangiopathy of neonates affecting both intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts.BA is more common in east Asia.Genetic susceptibility,viral infections,and immune dysregulation may be related to BA,but immune dysregulation may play a key hole in the pathogenesis of BA.A current view of the pathogenesis of BA is that it may involve both a primary perinatal hepatobiliary viral infection and a secondary generation of an autoimmune-mediated bile duct epithelial injury.The etiology of BA is unknown,but there is evidence for the involvement of immunologic dysregulation mechanisms,which will be discussed in this review.
