Objective To study the influence of excisional biopsy on detection rate of sentinel lymph node biopsy through methylene blue in breast cancer.Methods A review of 76 patients with clinical stage T1-2N0M0 breast cancer who had a successful sentinel lymph node biopsy at the Affiliated Nanhai Hospital of Southern Medical University between July 2009 to July 2014 was analyzed.There were 37 patients received sentinel lymph node biopsy directly.And 39 patients received sentinel lymph node biopsy after a excisional biopsy to primary lesion.We compare the difference of detection rate of sentinel lymph node between the two groups.Results Seventy cases had been found sentinel lymph node successfully in a total of 76 patients and the detection rate is 92.1％.There were 34 cases had sentinel lymph node biopsy in successfully in group of excisional biopsy and the detection rate is 87.2％.There were 36 cases had sentinel lymph node biopsy in successfully in group of needle core biopsy and the detection rate is 97.3％.This difference,however,was not statistically significant between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The influence of excisional biopsy on detection rate of sentinel lymph node biopsy through methylene blue in breast cancer is not significant.

To explore the prevalence and risk factors of depression in low-vision elder patients aged 60-85 years residing at Beizhuang Township,Miyun county.The activity of daily living scale (ADL) and geriatric depression scale (GDS) were used for diagnosis and grade the severity of depression.The prevalence rate of depression was higher in low-vision patients (36.2％) than in the control group (15.5％,P ＜0.05).The need for assistance in daily activities was higher in low-vision patients than in the control group(x2 =13.57,P ＜0.01).Patients with good economic conditions,being cared by relatives and living with their spouse had lower levels of ADL and GDS (all P ＜ 0.05).

Objective To investigate the effect of different duration skeletal muscle denervation on acetylcholine receptor activity in rats.Methods Fourteen Balb/c mice weighing 18-22 g were used in this study.The denervation model was established by excising sciatic nerve.Two rats were chosen before(T0 ) and at days 1,4,7,14,21 and 28 after excising sciatic nerve (T1～6),and flexor digitorum brevis of the hindfoot was acutely isolated Skeletal muscle cells were isolated ( five cells in each rat),the acetylcholine currents were recorded using whole-cell patch-clamo technique.Extracellular fluid containing 30 μmol/L acetylcholine was first applied to skeletal muscle cells for 10 s,acetylcholine currents (11)were recorded,then the ceils were washed out using extracellularfluid.Skeletal muscle cells were balanced using extracellular fluid containing 0,0.1,1,10,30,100,1000,3000,or 10 000 nmol/L atracurium for 3 min respectively,then perfused using extracellular fluid containing 30 μmol/L acetylcholine and differents concentrations of atracurium mentioned above for 10 s respectively,and acetylcholine currents were recorded,then the cells were washed out,and 30 μmol/L acetylcholine was perfused again and currents(I2 ) were recorded.The mean value of I1 and I2 was taken as control current,and inhibitory percentage of control current was calculated,and the inhibition concentrations for the half-maximal response (IC50) of atracurium were determined by nonlinear regression analysis.Results Compared with T0,IC50 significantly increased at T1～6 ( P ＜ 0.05).IC50 was increased gradually at T1～3 ( P ＜ 0.05).Compared with T3,IC50 was decreased at T4～6 ( P ＜ 0.05).IC50 was decreased gradually at T4～6 ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion Skeletal muscle denervation can inhibite acetylcholine receptor activity,which is relate to the denervation time.

Objective: To study the efficacy of relieving the postoperation pain by using mesh to stuture and fixate tissue during transabdominal preperitoneal hernioplasty (TAPP) in inguinal hernia patients. Metholds: A retrospective analysis of 156 patients with inguinal hernia who underwent TAPP in Nanhai Hospital Affiliated to Southern Medical University from January 2016 to January 2017 was conducted, they were males, the average age was 50.84 years and the age range was from 33 to 62 years. Patients were divided into sacral nail group (n=120) and absorbable line group (n=36) according to the different methods of fixation of the iliac crest. Among them, the patients in the sacral nail group were fixed with iliac screws, and the patients in the absorbable line group were sutured with absorbable sutures. Pain visual analog scale (VAS) was used to compare the extent of postoperative pain in both groups. After the operation, through the outpatient review and telephone follow-up for 1 year, observed the recurrence of inguinal hernia in both groups. Measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation (Mean±SD), t-test was used for comparison between groups; the Chi-square test was used to compare the count data between the two groups. Results: Among them, 19 patients with moderate pain after operation in the nail group had an incidence of 15.8%. Two patients with moderate pain in the absorbable line group had an incidence of 5.6%. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (χ²=2.511, P=0.013). The pain VAS of the patients in the sacral nail group was (3.08±1.36), and the absorbable line group was (2.50±0.91), the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t=2.973, P=0.001). All patients had no recurrence after outpatient review and telephone follow-up for 1 year. Conclusion In TAPP, the application of absorbable suture fixed patch can effectively reduce postoperative pain.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors and regularity of inferior mediastinal lymph node metastasis in Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction (AEG).Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinicopatho-logical data of 185 Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG patients in two medical centers (113 cases in Changzhi People's Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College and 72 cases in Heji Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College) from January 2017 to January 2022 were collected. There were 143 males and 42 females, aged (64±8)years. Patients underwent radical resection of AEG combined with inferior mediastinal lymph node dissection. Observation indicators: (1) clinicopathological charac-teristics of Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG patients; (2) analysis of influencing factors for inferior mediastinal lymph node metastasis in Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG; (3) regularity of inferior mediastinal lymph node metastasis in Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range), and comparison between groups was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were represented as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparsion between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was analyzed using the rank sum test. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using the Logistic regression model. Results:(1) Clinicopathological characteristics of Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG patients. Pathologic staging as stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ, degree of tumor invasion as stage T1, T2, T3 and T4, length of esophageal invasion ≤1 cm, >1 cm and ≤2 cm, >2 cm and ≤3 cm, >3 cm and ≤4 cm were found in 30, 61, 75, 7, 3, 41, 79, 50, 101, 46, 18, 8 cases of the Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG patients without inferior mediastinal lymph node metastasis, respectively, versus 0, 2, 10, 0, 0, 0, 5, 7, 4, 3, 2, 3 cases of the Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG patients with inferior mediastinal lymph node metastasis, showing a significant differences between them ( Z=?2.21, ?2.49, ?2.22, P<0.05). (2) Analysis of influencing factors for inferior mediastinal lymph node metastasis in Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG. Results of univariate analysis showed that pathological staging, depth of tumor invasion and length of esophageal invasion were related factors affecting inferior mediastinal lymph node metastasis in Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG ( odds ratio=2.48, 3.26, 2.03, 95% confidence intervals as 1.02?6.01, 1.21?8.80, 1.18?3.51, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that depth of tumor invasion and length of esophageal invasion were independent influening factors affecting inferior mediastinal lymph node metastasis in Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG ( odds ratio=4.01, 2.26, 95% confidence interval as 1.35?11.96, 1.26?4.06, P<0.05). The inferior mediastinal lymph node metastasis probability of AEG patients with the length of esophageal invasion >3 cm and ≤4 cm was 9.47 times that of AEG patients with the length of esophageal invasion ≤1 cm. (3) Regularity of inferior mediastinal lymph node metastasis in Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG. The number of inferior mediastinal lymph nodes including No.110, No.111 and No.112 dissected in 185 patients of Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG were 127, 50 and 27. The number of lymph nodes dissected and the number of metastatic lymph nodes in No.110 and No.111 of patients with length of esophageal invasion ≤1 cm, >1 cm and ≤2 cm, >2 cm and ≤3 cm, >3 cm and ≤4 cm were 69, 4, 42, 4, 4, 1, 12, 4 and 23, 0, 17, 0, 7, 2, 3, 0, respectively. There were significant differences in metastatic lymph nodes in No.110 and No.111 of patients with length of esophageal invasion ≤1 cm, >1 cm and ≤2 cm, >2 cm and ≤3 cm, >3 cm and ≤4 cm ( χ2=8.45, 7.30, P<0.05). Of the 185 patients of Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG, the ratio of cases with inferior mediastinal lymph nodes metastasis was 6.49%(12/185). The ratio of inferior mediastinal lymph nodes metastasis in cases with length of esophageal invasion ≤1 cm, >1 cm and ≤2 cm, >2 cm and ≤3 cm, >3 cm and ≤4 cm were 3.81%(4/105), 6.12%(3/49), 10.00%(2/20), 27.27%(3/11), respectively. The ratio of No.110 lymph nodes metastasis in cases with length of esophageal invasion ≤1 cm, >1 cm and ≤2 cm, >2 cm and ≤3 cm, >3 cm and ≤4 cm were 2.86%(3/105), 6.12%(3/49), 5.00%(1/20), 27.27%(3/11), respectively, showing a significant difference among them ( χ2=8.26, P<0.05). Conclusions:Depth of tumor invasion and length of esophageal invasion are independent influening factors affecting inferior mediastinal lymph node metastasis in Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG. The rate of inferior mediastinal lymph node metastasis increases with the increase of the length of esophageal invasion.
