Journal of Clinical Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery 2001;(4):155-156
Objective: To improve the diagnosis and treatment level of secretory otitis media (SOM) of children. Method :Clinical information of 80 children with SOM were colletcted and analysed. All of the 80 cases (144 ears)were treated by myringotomy with Grommet insertion. Among them, 30 cases by adenotonsillectomy. 10 cases by palatoplasty. Secretions of 54 ears were carded out by bacterial culture. Result:80 cases were followed up for 6 to 12 mothes. 120 ears of 144 were cured (83%) ,with hearing improved. The tympanograms and hearing threshold of pure tone were found to be normal. The Gram's positive and negative germs of bactevial culture were 20.7% (6/29 samples ) and 24% (6/25 samples ) respectively. Conclusion: Children with secretory otitis media should be treated as early as posible to improve the patients' hearing and develope their speech.

Objective To study risk factors with the occurrence of the mesh exposure after pelvic floor reconstruction.Methods From Mar.2007 to Mar.2011,a retrospective study was made on the clinical data of 353 patients undergoing vaginal mesh pelvic floor reconstruction.The related complications of the mesh were surveyed,and risk factors associated with the mesh's exposure were studied by single factor and multiple factors logistic regression.Results It was found that the exposure rate was 9.6% (34/353) after 1 year postoperative follow-up.Single factor analysis showed that patients who were not less than 70 years old,patients who were on their menopause stage,the occurrence of not less than three parturition,history of pelvic surgery,diabetes and smoking had a significant correlation (all P < 0.05) with the occurrence of the mesh exposure after pelvic floor reconstruction.Multiple factors logistic regression analysis showed that patients who were not less than 70 years of age (OR =2.389),the occurrence of not less than three parturition (OR =2.688),the history of diabetes (OR =3.545),the history of pelvic surgery (OR =5.385) were the independent risk factors,and the operation experience was the protection factors (OR =0.134).Conclusions Mesh exposure is a common complication after pelvic floor reconstruction.Old age,multiple delivery,history of diabetes and history of pelvic surgery are the risk factors of mesh exposure.Preoperative full assessment and the quality of training contribute to reduce the incidence.

Objective To investigate the survival and prognostic factors in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors(GIST).Methods The histopathological slides from 153 patients with GIST were reviewed. The expression of CDllT,CD34,platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFR-a) and Ki-67 proteins were measured by immunohistochemical staining. The factors thatinvolved in the survival and prognosis were analyzed based on the clinical features and GIST biological behavior ranking.The Kaplan-Meier and Cox model were used to evaluate the effect of variant factors on survival and prognosis.Results The survival rate of 135 patients was 94.1% 76.3% and 65.9% at 1,3 and 5 years,respectively.On univariate analysis survival was predicted by tumor size (χ2= 40.565,P<0.01),primary tumor location (χ2=13.245,P<0.01),mitotic count (χ2= 22.626,P<0.01),risk ranking (χ2=19.186,P<0.01),necrosis (χ2==28.665,P<0.01),incomplete resection χ2=2 =29.110,P<0.01) and Ki-67 index (χ2=15.953,P<0.01).Multivariate analysis demonstrated that thetumor size > 10 cm,primary tumor location,mitotic count> 10/50 HPF,high risk subgroup,tumor necrosis and Ki 67 index > 5 % were poor predictors of survival.Ki-67,tumor size and mitotic count were strong poor predictors of survival.Conclusions Fletcher's biological behavior ranking is a good approach to predict prognosis of GIST patients and has significant clinical value.It's better to combine itwith other factors such as Ki-67 index and primary tumor location in order to provide evidence for therapy.

Objective:To analyze the prognosis-related factors of ovarian serous adenocarcinoma in order to set up a prognostic model of serous adenocarcinoma and verify the effectiveness of the model as prognostic clinical criteria.Methods:The clinical, patholo-gical and follow-up data from 181 training samples with ovarian serous adenocarcinoma in Peking University First Hospital during January 1995 to December 2003 and another 42 detection samples with ovarian serous adenocarcinoma in Beijing Cancer Hospital during January 1999 to December 2005 were analyzed retrospectively. Kaplan-Meier univariate analysis was used to screen out prognostic factors; COX univariate and multivariate analyses were used to determine the risk coefficient of each factor and different layers in each factor; Pearson rank correlation analysis was used to identify the correlation of each factor. The prognostic model of ovarian serous adenocarcinoma was established on the conversion of risk coefficient to prognostic score and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to determine the cut-off value. The clinical data were collected to verify the sensitivity and specificity of the prognostic model based on the 3-year survival rate and Ki67 value.Results:The survival rate of patients with ovarian serous adenocarcinoma correlated with 6 factors including FIGO stage, histological grade, residual size, metastasis of lymph nodes, general condition after chemotherapy, and serum CA125 levels. The postoperative chemotherapy was an independent factor for prognosis. The prognostic model directly reflected the survival probability of classical COX risk ratio model, with higher score indicating lower survival probability and poorer prognosis. If combining prognostic score with Ki67 the sensitivity and specificity reached 64.7% and 96.0%, respectively.Conclusion:FIGO stage, histological grade, residual size, metastasis of lymph nodes, postoperative chemotherapy and serum CA125 were the prognostic factors of patients with ovarian serous adenocarcinoma. The prognostic model of ovarian serous adenocarcinoma can moderately reflect the actual survival status, and combination with Ki67 will increase the sensitivity and specificity.
