Objective To analysis the occurrence status of breast disease in married women in Tangshan area,and to provide basis for early prevention of breast cancer in this region.Methods 773 married women in Tangshan area were given mammography examination.The tissue biopsy or surgical treatment was recommended for patients with above grade 3 of breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS) classification to obtain pathological diagnosis.Results In 773 women,482 cases (62.35 %) were diagnosed as BI-RADS grade 2 or below,256 cases (33.12 %) were BI-RADS grade 3,33 cases (4.27 %) were BI-RADS grade 4,2 cases (0.26 %) were BI-RADS grade 5.The distribution of each BI-RADS grade among different age group was statistically significant (x2 =17.90,P < 0.001),35 cases got pathological diagnosis by biopsy or surgical treatment,including 30 cases of mammary gland hyperplasia,3 cases of breast fibroadenoma,and 2 cases of breast cancer.Conclusion Women's mammography screening is important for the prevention and early detection of mammary gland diseases.

Objective: The aim of the study is to validate whether the Recognition Of Stroke In the Emergency
Room (ROSIER) scale can be used by general practitioners (GPs) in an emergency medical service
(EMS) protocol to transfer stroke patients from primary care center to advanced hospital with acute
stroke center. Methods: GPs prospectively performed the ROSIER scale and the Cincinnati Prehospital
Stroke Scale (CPSS) on suspected stroke patients as a transfer protocol. All patients were immediately
transferred to the Level-II hospital for further treatment. Results: 468 of the 512 suspected stroke
patients met the inclusion criteria in this study. The ROSIER scale showed a diagnostic sensitivity
of 83.13% (95% confidence intervals [CI] 79.74-86.52%) and specificity of 80.88% (95% CI 77.32-
84.44%). The CPSS showed a diagnostic sensitivity of 78.01% (95% CI 74.26-81.76%) and specificity
of 70.59% (95% CI 66.46-74.72%). The Kappa statistic value of the ROSIER scale and the CPSS
were 0.601 and 0.454, respectively. The area under the curve (AUC) of ROSIER scale was large than
the CPSS (AUC 0.855 vs. 0.791). However, the difference was not significantly different.
Conclusions: This study suggest that ROSIER and CPSS could be used in an EMS protocol to transfer
stroke patients from a primary care center to an advanced hospital offering thrombolysis service

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of tumor markers of CEA,CA153,TPS,Fer and CYFRA21-1 level in postoperative metastasis of breast cancer.Methods After 3-year follow-up for 578 patients with primary breast cancer from 2012 to 2014,we chose 42 patients with metastasis as metastasis group,and another 42 cases without as non-metastasis group.Level of CEA,CA153,TPS,Fer and CYFRA21-1 was detected using chemiluminescence and the difference of CEA,CA153,TPS,Fer and CYFRA21-1 level in 2 groups was compared.Pearson correlation test analysis and ROC curve test were performed for data analysis.Results Serum CEA,CA153,TPS,Fer and CYFRA21-1 levelq6.11 ± 1.87)ng/mL,(26.97 ± 9.52) U/mL,(155.95 ± 22.03)U/L,(173.08 ± 19.87)ng/mL and (18.98 ± 7.33)ng/mL respectively increased in metastasis group when compared with those in non-metastasis group (5.33 ± 1.85)ng/mL,(23.34 ± 8.30)U/mL、(133.22 ± 19.09)U/L,(142.29 ± 22.59) ng/mL and (6.76 ± 1.59)ng/mLrespectively and the change of TPS,Fer and CYFRA21-1 was more obvious and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).There was no significant correlation among serum TPS,Fer and CYFRA21-lin metastasis group.The area under ROC curve of CYFRA21-1 was 0.903,followed by Fer (0.849) and TPS (0.791) and in the diagnosis of metastasis of breast cancer,CYFRA21-1 has great diagnostic value.Conclusions The increase of serum TPS,Fer and CYFRA21-1 level is closely associated with postoperative metastasis of breast cancer and CYFRA21-1 has great diagnostic value for monitoring postoperative metastasis of breast cancer.
