Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of the axillary conservative surgery by sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) using preoperative lymphoscintigraph technique with 99mTc-SC and methylene blue in early-stage breast cancer patients. Methods The sentinel lymph node (SLN) of 187 patients were located with preoperative lymphoscintigraph technique with 99mTc-SC and labeled with methylene blue during the operations. The metastasis of SLN was detected using frozen section technique. There were 51 patients whose SLN were positive having been carried with modified radical mastectomy of breast cancer and axillary lymph node dissection (ALND), 136 patients' SLN were negative,58 patients of those were carried with mammectomy or partial mastcctomy and ALND (group A),while 78 patients were carried out with mammectomy or partial mastectomy only (group B). The sentinel lymph nodes were detected with HE stain after surgery. All the patients were treated with chemotherapy,and the patients with partial mastcctomy must be treated with radiotherapy. There were 2 patients with micrometastasis in group B being treated with mammectomy or partial mastcctomy only,and carried out with ALND again. Results The number of cases with upper limb numbness, edema, dysfunction in group A were 36,8 and 45 cases, in group B were 2,0,0 case respectively. Group A compared with group B was increased significantly (P< 0.05). The number of local recurrence within 1, 3 and 5 years were 0,0,2 cases;lymphatic metastasis were 1,5,8 cases; the distant metastasis were 2,8,12 cases; the disease-free survival were 60,57,49 cases. In group B, the number of local recurrence within 1, 3 and 5 years were 0,0,6 cases, lymphatic metastasis were 3,8,12cases,the distant metastasis were 4,8,16 cases,the disease-free survival were 76,70,61 cases. There were not significant differences between the two groups(P> 0.05). Conclusion It is simple and accurate to carry out SLNB using preoperative lymphoscintigraph technique with 99mTc-SC combined with methylene blue,and the effect is reliable.

Objective To study the risk factors,methods of etiologic diagnosis and treatment of disunion of fracture due to delayed infection after the internal fixation. Methods The clinical data including bacterial tests, clinical manifestation and the administration of antibiotics , of 24 cases of disunion of fracture due to delayed infec-tion after the internal fixation were retrospectively analyzed. Results 22 strains of pathogenic bacteria were distin-guished with a detection rate of 91.67% in the 24 cases. 16 strains of these bacteria were gram-positive,and 6 gram-negative. The gram-positive ones were all sensitive to vancomycin and teicoplanin. The gram-negative ones were all sensitive to imipenem and meropenem. It was common for patients to take antibiotic after operation. Conclusion More infection is caused by gram-positive bacteria than by gram-negative ones. Antibiotic therapy based on the bacte-rial test is reasonable and necessary besides surgeries.

Results: SFI and MNCV in electro-acupuncture group, musk injection group and electro-acupuncture plus musk injection group were improved more obviously than that in model group, with significant differences(P＜0.01, P＜0.05). Conclusions: Both electro-acupuncture and musk injection could promote recovery of injured nerve function, and they had a certain synergetic effect and might be the effective methods in promoting recovery of injured peripheral nerve function.

Objective To review the experience on screening,diagnosis and treatment for neonatal congenital hypothyroidism (CH)in Xuancheng City,Anhui Province.MethodsFrom Jan 2008 to Dec 2014,peripheral blood samples from the heel were collected among 83787 neonates and the blood samples were sent to the screening center to test the level of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH).Neonates with abnormal level of TSH were admitted to our hospital for further TSH and free tetraiodothyronine (FT4 )tests. Neonates with CH diagnosis were given standard treatments of levothyroxine and their thyroid function, physical and intelligence development were evaluated on a routine basis.Results Among the 106 neonates with abnormal TSH level ,68 were diagnosed CH.The prevalence of CH in Xuancheng City was 0.8 ‰.All 68 patients with CH received levothyroxine treatment and 6 cases were lost during follow-up.44 patients received physical examination and their bone ages were normal. 53 patients received intelligence assessment.Only 1 of them was diagnosed of mental retardation, and 3 with suspicious mental retardation.Conclusion Neonatal screening is necessary for the early diagnosis and treatment of CH. Neonates with CH can have normal physical and mental development if they receive standard treatment as early as possible and followed up regularly.

Objective To identify a aldehyde dehydrogenases positive (ALDH+) cancer stem cell subpopulation in MCF-7 cells and to investigate the proliferation and differentiation characteristics of these cells in vitro.Methods ALDH+ breast cancer stem cells were isolated from MCF-7 cells by flow cytometry and the biological property of ALDH+ breast cancer stem cells were examined by scarification test,MTT,growth curvature and Transwell migration assay.Results The ratio of CD-/low24 CD+44 cells was about 1.4 ％ in MCF-7 cells.The ratio of ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 cells was about 1.2 ％.The growth curvature of ALDH+ breast cancer stem cells was almost the same with that of CD-/low24 CD+44 cells.The distance between cells was obviously shorter in both CD-/low24 CD+44 cells scarification zone and ALDH+ CD-/low24 CD+44 cells scarification zone.The migration ability of CD-/low24CD+44 cells and ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 cells was stronger than control group cells.There were migration ability differences between CD-/low24CD+44 cells and ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 cells.The results of Transwell experiments were in coincidence with above results.Lots of CD-/low24CD+44 cells and ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 cells were through the membrane.In MTT assay,absorbance values were 1.05±0.098,1.56±0.075 and 1.67±0.032.Conclusion CD--/low24CD+44 and ALDH+ CD-/low24CD+44 breast cancer stem cell subpopulation exist in MCF-7 cells.ALDH could potentially be used as a molecular marker to identify breast cancer stem cell subpopulation.
