Tumor markers have been of vital importance in cancer diagnosis and treatment.However,the sensitivity of tumor markers for early diagnosis is low and can not be widely used.Quantum dots are new fluorescent nanoparticles with unique photophysical and chemical properties,thus having a great potential impact on cancer pathogenesis,early diagnosis,targeted therapy,prognosis and monitoring by combining with tumor marker.The current research is focused on the detection of specific tumor markers or molecules based on tangible carriers such as cells and tissues.One of the most promising clinical applications would be to explore the potential of this highly sensitive labeling technique for the detecting and imagining of tumor markers in serum and other body fluids,where some progress has already been made recently.How to detect early cancer based solely on invisible carriers would be the next step of quantum dots bio-probes in clinical use,so as to develop a new detection technique with greater sensitivity,specificity,rapidity and convenience.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of the accessory breast cancer with breast cancer.Methods Five patients with accessory breast cancer were admitted,among of them,1 case with breast cancer,and their documents were retrospectively analyzed.Results Of the 5 cases,1 case underwent modified radical mastectomy,the other 4 cases underwent accessory breast enlarged resection and axillary lymph node dissection.They all received chemotherapy and radiotherapy and 1 case received tamoxifen therapy.Four cases were followed up for 2 years,there was no recurrence and metastasis,1 case was received CAP sequenced chemotherapy.Conclusions Accessory breast cancer is rare but aggressive.The diagnosis is mainly depended on imaging results and postoperative pathology.Combined therapy principle dominated by surgery should be followed.The operation of accessory breast enlarged resection and axillary lymph node dissection should be indicated.

BACKGROUND:Airborne pollen is the most important factor to induce the seasonal allergic diseases.The production and dispersal of pollen are closely correlated with the meteorological factors.OBJECTIVE:To observe the correlation between the seven meteorological factors (air pressure,air temperature,humidity,precipitation,wind speed,evaporation capacity and sunshine) and the airborne pollen in Nanchang so as to provide theoretic evidences for preventing and treating anaphylactic disease in that region.DESIGN:Observational experiment. SETTING:Department of Allergic Reaction,Jiangxi Medical College.MATERIALS:An investigation on airbome pollen was performed for a year by Durham gravity method.Data of airborne pollen and the seven meteorological factors in urban area of Nanchang city were collected.METHODS:The top of the 4th experimental building in the southern yard of Jiangxi Medical College located in the center of Nanchang city was taken as exposed point.The pollen was surveyed by Durham gravity method from April 1st,2000 to March 31 st,2001.Meteorological data of the seven factors were collected every day and supplied by the Weather Bureau of Jiangxi Province.The correlation between meteorological factors and airborne pollen was analyzed by the multivariate Jinear stepwise regression analysis with SAS 6.12.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:The type,amount,seasonal distribution of airborne pollen and the correlation between the seven meteorological factors and the airborne pollen in urban area of Nanchang city. RESULTS:There were airborne pollens in Nanchang city all the year round,which included about 47 types.The main pollen season of Cupressaceae was in March,Pinaceae in March and April, and Cunninghamia R.Br in March,Chenopodium-Amaranthus and Ambrosia from August to November, Artemisia from September to November and Humulus in September.Gramineae had been scattering all seasons but mostly from June to October.In the correlation analysis between dispersal of airbome pollen and seven meteorological factors, multivariate linear stepwise regression analysis was conducted in some major polien counting in steady dispersal period and seven meteorological factors. The positive correlation was found in Pinaceae with air pressure,air temperature,wind speed and sunlight,and the negative correlation was found with precipitation and evaporation capacity.The positive correlation was found in Cupressaceae with air pressure,air temperature and sunlight,and negative correlation was found with humidity,precipitation,wind speed and evaporation capacity.The positive correlation was found in Ambrosia with air pressure,air temperature and wind speed,while negative correlation was found with humidity,precipitation,evaporation capacity and sunshine.The positive correlation was found in Artemisia with air pressure,air temperature and wind speed,while negative correlation was found with humidity,precipitation, evaporation capacity and sunshine.The positive correlation was found in Gramineae with air pressure and air temperature,while negative correlation was found with humidity,precipitation and evaporation capacity.However,if using count of total pollen in a year or half a year to analyze the relationship,the correlated factors were much fewer than that mentioned above.CONCLUSION:The dispersal of airborne pollen is related with the seven meteorological factors.It is better to use the grain amount of single pollen in its main pollen season to analyze the relationship with meteorological factors.
