1.Expression of p73 and its correlation with Survivin in colon carcinoma
Journal of Chinese Physician 2010;12(11):1482-1484
Objective To study the expression of P73 and its relationship with expression of Survivin in colon carcinoma. Methods The expression of P73 and Survivin was studied by immunohistochemical technique in 46 cases of colon carcinoma and 12 cases of normal colon mucosa. Results The P73 expression rate of colon carcinoma was significant higher than that of normal colon mucosa(χ2 = 13.42, P <0.01 ). Overexpression of P73 was related to the pathological grade and Dukes stage ( ( χ2 = 8.01, P <0.01 ), and it was closely related to lymphatic metastasis of colon carcinoma( P <0.01 ). There was a positive relation between P73 and Survivin( rs =0.487, P <0.01 ). Conclusions The expression of P73 was closely associated with Survivin in colon carcinoma. The results suggested that the overexpression of P73 and Survivin was involved in the tumorigenesis and development of colon carcinoma and P73 and Survivin might be used as a new tumor marker in metastasis and prognosis of colon carcinoma.
2.Magnetic resonance imaging diagnosis of hilar cholangiocarcinoma
Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery 2013;(3):196-199
Hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HCCA) or Klatskin tumor is a scirrhous adenocarcinoma that arises from the conjunction of bile duct and hepatic ducts.Hepatic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) are important methods for the diagnosis of HCCA.In this article,the clinical data of 42 patients in the Changhai Hospital and 18 patients in the Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital who received MRI and MRCP examination from October 2010 to October 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the pathological features,HCCA could be divided into mass-forming type,infiltrating type and intraductal type.Based on the results of imaging examination and intra-and postoperative pathological examination,Bismuth-Corlette types were decided pre-and postoperatively.The coincidence rate of pre-and postoperative Bismuth-Corlette types was 89.7% (35/39).Infiltration of liver parenchyma was both detected pre-and postoperatively in 19 patients (16 patients were detected by MRI preoperatively),and the sensitivity of MRI was 84.2% ; vascular invasion was both detected pre-and postoperatively in 10 patients (12 patients were detected by MRI preoperatively),and the sensitivity of MRI was 83.3% ; hilar and retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis was both detected pre-and postoperatively in 6 patients (4 patients were detected by MRI preoperatively),and the sensitivity of MRI was 66.7%.Combined application of different sequences and techniques of MRI is helpful in the diagnosis,staging and treatment of HCCA.

Journal of Shanghai Jiaotong University(Medical Science) 2006;0(02):-
Objective To investigate the changes of psychological state and family environment of the patients with neurosis (including depression and anxiety) in the process of treatment. Methods The Hamilton depression scale (HAMD), Hamilton anxiety scale(HAMA), self-rating depression scale(SDS), self-rating anxiety scale(SAS), family environment scale(FES), and family adaptability and cohesion scale(FACESⅡ-CV) were used to evaluate the changes of psychological state and family relationship in the process of treatment among patients with depression and anxiety hospitalized in general hospitals (n=45) and their family members (n=45). Results Before intervention, values of HAMD, HAMA, SDS and SAS in patients were higher than normal ones, and were in line with the corresponding diagnostic criteria. After psychological intervention and medication for 2 to 3 months, symptoms such as depression and anxiety were improved significantly, and values of the above scales were within normal ranges. Besides, there was also significant improvement in FES and FACESⅡ-CV after intervention among the patients. All the values of the family members were in the normal ranges before intervention, however, significantly positive changes were observed after intervention. Conclusion With the improvement in depression and anxiety after intervention among patients, the psychological pressure of family members is released, and family relationship is partially restored. The rehabilitation of patients plays an important role in the restoration of family function.
