Purpose To investigate the imaging features of breast phyllodes tumor on mammography(MG),ultrasound(US) and pathology, correlated with its clinical manifestation.Materials and Methods Twelve cases of pathologically confirmed breast phyllodes tumors were examined by US and MG. The imaging findings were retrospectively analyzed. Results Of the 12 cases of breast phyllodes tumors, 6 were benign, 3 were malignant and 3 were borderline. MG predicted 3 breast phyllodes tumors, 3 breast carcinomas and 6 adenomas. US predicted 2 phyllodes tumors, 8 breast masses and 2 adenomas. Conclusion The imaging findings of phyllodes tumors on MG and US are characteristic but not specific. Combined application of both US and MG are helpful for early detection but can not differentiate its malignancy which is determined by pathology.

Objective To investigate the renal expression of stem cell factor (SCF) in lupus nephritis (LN) and its correlation with disease activity and renal injury parameters. Methods Histochemical stain was used to examine all renal specimens (LN group n=34, chronic glomerulonephritis n=16, control group n=8). Hyhridization in situ and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the expression of SCF and infiltration of mast cells, macrophages , α-SMA (+) cells in renal tissues of the two groups. SPS software was used for tissue of the control group. However, they increased markedly in lupus nephritis and CGN (t=6.03~14.25, P< 0.01). But there was no significant difference between LN and CGN in SCF and mast cells in renal interstitium. Positive correlation was observed among the expression of SCF and α-SMA and the number of mast cells and macrophages (r=0.47~0.84, P<0.01) at their corresponding locations. The expression of SCF and ot-SMA and the number of macruphages were positively correlated with renal pathological active index, chronic index, albuminuria and the injury of renal interstitium (r=0.34~0.93, P<0.05 or 0.01); meanwhile, it was negatively correlated with Ccr(r=-0.39~0.61, P<0.01). There was significant correlation between SCF, macrophages and anti-dsDNA antibody, complement C3 level, SLE disease activity index (SLEDAI). The number of mast cells in renal interstitium was positively correlated with chronic indexes and the injury of renal interstitium (r=-0.86, r=0.93, P<0.01) and negatively correlated with Ccr (r=-0.56, P<0.01), but not correlated with active index and albuminuria (r=0.27, r=0.23, P>0.05). Conclusion The expression of SCF is widespread in kidney, and it is markedly eorrelated with various kinds of inflammatory cells, renal inherent cells, renal function, and urine protein levels. SCF may be an critical participant in the initiation and progression of renal injuries in human lupus nephritis.

Helicobacter pylori ( HP ) is the most common infectious pathogen of the digestive tract , since being identified in 1880s, its critical roles in many gastrointestinal and extra -gastrointestinal diseases have been confirmed.HP is involved in disease processes by different mechanisms ,one of which significantly important is the local or systemic inflammatory response and immune damage .HP could colonize in the gastric mucosa ,resulting in the elevation of many inflammatory mediators in stomach and serum .Many kidney diseases ,like glomerulonephritis ,renal failure and diabetic nephropathy have been confirmed to be related to inflammatory responses ,and HP could partici-pate in different kinds of kidney diseases by enhancing inflammatory responses to influence humoral or cellular immune response.This manuscript reviewed the research progress on the relationship between Hp and renal disease .
