Objective·To explore the diagnostic value of 9 mTc-sestamibi (9 mTc-MIBI) single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) and ultrasonography in hyperparathyroidism. Methods·Fifty patients with hyperparathyroidism were included. 9 mTc-MIBI SPECT/CT was performed before operations in all patients, while ultrasonography was performed in 33 patients. The diagnostic efficiency was calculated for both imaging methods in comparison to pathological data. Results·Serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels were 352.0 (141.5-846.0) pg/mL and 1792.0 (1018.5-2358.5) pg/mL, respectively, in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), while maximum diameters of lesion were 14.5 (9.0-20.9) mm and 10.0 (8.0-12.6) mm, respectively (both P<0.01). The accuracy of SPECT/CT were 97.7% and 62.5%, respectively (P<0.01), in PHPT and SHPT. In 33 patients, the sensitivity and accuracy of SPECT/CT were 66.3% and 74.2%, respectively, whereas the sensitivity and accuracy of ultrasonography were 45.7% and 61.4%, respectively (both P<0.05). Conclusion·Serum PTH levels were higher, while maximum diameters of lesion were longer in PHPT than that in SHPT, and the diagnostic efficiency was also higher in PHPT than that in SHPT. In the other hand, the sensitivity and accuracy of SPECT/CT were higher than that of ultrasonography.

Objective:To investigate the effect of miR-218 on the proliferation and invasion of breast cancer cells.Methods: The expression of miR-218 in breast cancer tissues and breast cancer cell lines was detected by qPCR.The relationship between the expression of miR-218 and the clinicopathological parameters of breast cancer were analyzed.Double luciferase assay was used to detect the relationship between miR-218 and SNX4.MTT assay and invasion assay were used to detect the proliferation and invasion of breast cancer cells after overexpression of miR-218.MTX assay and invasion assay were used to detect the recovery level of SNX4 on the proliferation and invasion of breast cancer cells.The effect of miR-218 on the tumorigenesis of breast cancer cell lines was examined by tumorigenesis in nude mice.Results: The expression level of miR-218 in breast cancer tissue and MCF-7 cell line was higher.The expression of miR-218 was associated with pathological stage of breast cancer and lymph node metastasis.SNX4 may be the target of miR-218.Overexpression of miR-21 could inhibit the proliferation and invasion of breast cancer cells.Overexpression of SNX4 could reverse the inhibitory effect of miR-218 on breast cancer cells.Overexpression of miR-218 could inhibit the breast cancer cell line in nude mice tumorigenic ability.Conclusion: miR-218 can up-regulate the expression of miR-218 in breast cancer,and miR-218 can regulate the expression of SNX4 in breast cancer cell proliferation and invasion.

Objective To investigate the relationship between RAD51 135G > C polymorphism and prognosis in triple-negative breast cancer patients by retrospective analysis.Methods The clinical data of 62 triplenegative breast cancer patients were collected.The 62 cases underwent standard chemotherapy and radiotherapy after tumor resection from Jan.2004 to Dec.2010 in Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University.RAD51 135G > C polymorphism was detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RELP) technology.The survival curve about progress free and overall survival time were then made.Results The median progress free and overall survival time in triple-negative breast cancer patients with or with-out RAD51 135G > C polymorphism were(77.00 ±5.55)and(89.00 ± 10.40) months vs(99.00 ±4.26)and (103.00 ±4.30) months.The difference had statistical significance(P =0.039 and 0.015 respectively).Conclusion RAD51 135G > C polymorphism is related with prognosis of triple-negative breast cancer patients,which might be a prognostic factor for breast cancer.

Objective To compare the value of interim and end-of-treatment 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT for the prognosis of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).Methods A total of 116 DLBCL patients (male ∶female=1 ∶ 1.32,average age:(57.87± 15.89) years) whose initial treatment was rituximab+cyclophosphamide+doxorubicin+vincristine+prednisone(R-CHOP),were enrolled from 2008 to 2016.All patients underwent pre-treatment,interim and end-of-treatment 18F-FDG PET/CT.End points were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).Correlation between metabolic parameters including maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax),metabolic tumor volume (MTV),total lesion glycolysis (TLG),Deauville score (DS),△SUVmax,△MTV,△TLG in the interim PET/CT and those in the end-of-treatment PET/CT was analyzed with Pearson correlation analysis.The ability of metabolic parameters to assess the prognosis was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve analysis.The survival was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method and hazard ratio (HR) was calculated by Cox regression model.Results The r values for △SUVmax,△MTV,△TLG of interim and end-of-treatment PET/CT were 0.630,0.912,0.955,respectively (all P<0.01).One hundred and four cases (89.7%,104/116)had the same DS in the interim and end-of-treatment PET/CT,and the r value for DS between two PET/CT scans was 0.733 (P<0.01).The interim metabolic parameters were superior to that at the end of treatment in evaluating the progression.The 5-year PFS (83.1% vs 35.9%,P<0.01;HR =5.969,P<0.01) and OS (95.7% vs 75.5%,P<0.01;HR=8.161,P<0.05) rates were significantly higher in DS 1-3 group than those in DS 4-5 group.Conclusions Interim PET/CT is effective for the prediction of prognosis in DLBCL patients with R-CHOP treatment.Patients with complete remission in the interim can omit the end-of-treatment PET/CT.
