Objective To investigate the clinical value of tissue polypeptide specific antigen(TPS),neuron-specific enolase(NSE),carcinoembryonie antigen(CEA)and CA125 in serum of small cell lung cancer(SCLC)patients and its significance in diagnosis and disease monitoring.Methods Serum leveh of TPS was detected using ELISA and serum levels of NSE,CA125 and CEA was detected using ECLin 27 1 SCLC patients.80 pulmonary benign disease patients and 224 normal healthy people.Diagnostic values of these tumor markers were analyzed by receiver operative characteristic(ROC)curve.Results The levels of TPS,NSE,CA125 and CEA iu the serum of SCLC group were signifieanfly higher than those in pulmonary benign disease and healthy group(Z＞1.90,P＜0.01).The levels of TPS and NSE in the serum of extensive stage small cell lung cancer(ESCLC)patients were significantly higher than those in limited stage small cell lung cancer(LSCLC)(Z=2.69,2.27,P=0.009,0.02 respectively).,The level of TPS and NSE showed statistical significance among SCLC patients with different prognosis after therapy(Z=4.06,3.11.P=0.001,0.007 respectively).The TPS+NSE showed the highest sensitivity of 86.7%,and the specificity,PPV and NPV were 75.0%,81.0% and 82.2%,respectively.Conclusions Serum levels of TPS,NSE,CA125 and CEA are useful for SCLC diagnosis.TPS+NSE shows the highest clinical values in SCLC diagnosis and prognosis.

Purpose To investigate the diagnostic value of fetal echocardiography in total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC),and to analyze the reasons ofmisdiagnosis so as to improve accuracy of prenatal diagnosis.Materials and Methods The prenatal echocardiographic data of 24 cases of TAPVC confirmed by postnatal echocardiography and prenatal MRI from October 2001 to December 2015 in Children's Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University and Shanghai Children's Medical Center Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine were retrospectively analyzed.Results In 24 cases,there were 14 fetuses of supracardiac type,7 cases of intracardiac type,2 cases of infracardiac type,and 1 case of mixed type.15 fetuses had TAPVC only,whereas 9 cases were associated with other cardiovascular anomalies,most commonly including bilateral right atria,single atrium,single ventricle,common atrioventricular valve and pulmonary stenosis.On 4-chamber views,the common sonographic sign was absent of pulmonary venous return to the left atrium in 24 cases (100.0％),and the presence of venous confluence between left atrium and descending aorta was observed in 22 cases (91.7％).In all 24 cases,1 case was missed diagnosis,and 3 cases were misdiagnosed as persistent left superior vena cava,common pulmonary vein atresia and patent left atrial cardinal vein.Conclusion TAPVC can be accurately diagnosed by fetal echocardiography,but it is prone to be misdiagnosed.

Objective:To investigate the expression of transforming growth factor ?1(TGF-?1) in dog mandibular distraction osteogenensis (DO). Methods: Mandibular DO model was established in 12 dogs and nonunion model in another 12 dogs, 4 dogs were used as the no-treatment control. Tissue samples were obtained 6 d,2 and 8 weeks after operation respectively.Immunohistochemistry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were used to determine the expressions of TGF-?1 in the samples.Results: TGF-?1 (ng/g) in control group was 1394.3?20.1,6 d after operation that in DO and nonunion groups was 1928.5?33.5(vs control,P

Objective To observe the application effect of the risk of ovarian malignancy algorithm(ROMA)in screening ovarian cancer among high risk population.Methods The human epididymis protein 4(HE4)and carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125 )were detected in 1 753 cases of high risk for overian cancer,56 cases of ovarian cancer(positive control)and 60 healthy people,patients. Then the ROMA value was calculated in combination with the subject′s menstruation status.The detection results were analyzed and compared among groups.The high risk group for ovarian cancer devided according to the ROMA value was further performed the confirmatory test and the low risk group was monitored by follow up.The detection rates of ovarian cancer were compared be-tween the two subgroups.Results In the high risk population,the diagnostic performance of the ROMA value for ovarian cancer was superior to that of the single HE4 or CA125;the ROMA value had statistically significant difference between the high risk sub-group in the high-risk population with ovarian cancer or the healthy control group(P <0.05);in 1 753 cases of high risk popula-tion,37 cases were included in the high risk subgroup,in which 3 cases of ovarian cancer were screened out and in clinical early stage.The detection rate of ovarian cancer in the high risk subgroup was 8.1%.No case of ovarian cancer was detected out in the low risk subgroup.Conclusion The ROMA value is conducive to early screening for ovarian cancer in the high risk population, which can save the medical cost and increase the detection rate.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of ultrasonic diagnosis for neonatal annular pancreas,analyze the reasons of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis,and improve diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography for this disease.Methods Clinical data of 98 newborns with annular pancreas confirmed by gastrointestinal contrast and surgery were analyzed retrospectively.Preoperative ultrasonogram were compared with the result of gastrointestinal contrast and surgery.Ultrasound images failed to be correctly dignosed were further studied to summarize diagnostic points for this disease.Results Among the 98 cases, 75 were correctly diagnosed by ultrasound with a diagnostic accordance rate of 76.5%,1 8 were missed diagnosed and 5 were misdiagnosed with a total misdiagnosis rate of 23.5%.Ten cases associated with other congenital gastrointestinal tract anomalies were missed diagnosed due to ignoring scanning pancreas.Five cases were missed diagnosed due to obvious intestinal cavity flatulence.Three cases were missed diagnosed due to lack of awareness of the disease.Five cases were misdiagnosed for duodenal stenosis or duodenal atresia.Conclusions Ultrasound has important diagnostic value for neonatal annular pancreas,providing the dignostic evidences for clinical treatment.Thus it can be used as the preferred auxiliary examination of the disease.Since annular pancreas is often accompanied by other gastrointestinal malformations and can be interfered by abdominal gas,missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis occurred easily.To improve the accuracy of ultrasonic diagnosis,all causes of neonatal gastrointestinal tract obstructions should be considered during the examination.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of the newly discovered tricuspid injury during the fol-low -up of the patients with interventional transcatheter closure for perimembranous ventricular septal defect (VSD). Methods A retrospective analysis of clinical data was performed in the successful completion of membranous VSD in-tervention from March 2003 to April 2015,and 11 cases of serious tricuspid injury in children were found during the fol-low -up.Results Among 11 children,10 cases underwent surgery again,and in 7 cases of them with pseudoaneurysm of perimembranous septum,the occluders were deviated toward the right ventricul which caused valvular inadequacy for plate winding closures,extrusion and wear of tricuspid chordae and /or leaflet by right ventricul(RV)disc.Among them,1 case was caused by leaflet fusion tear and tricuspid valve insufficiency;3 cases without pseudoaneurysm were caused by a spindle like RV disc recovery structure protruding into the right ventricle,and then the disc squeezed the tricuspid tendinous cord or leaflet and the right ventricular disc nut wrapped tendon of tricuspid valve finally leading to tricuspid valve insufficiency.There was a small amount of tricuspid regurgitation after surgery;the cardiac size and car-diac function returned to normal.One case did not receive surgery,and at present the right atrium and right ventricle were significantly enlarged,and the activity was limited.Conclusions Tricuspid injury discovered newly after perimem-branous VSD interventional therapy is more common in pseudoaneurysm with large tumor occluding the right ventricular disc resulting in poor formation,and it is important to consider these factors in choosing the size of the occluder and the operation.Long term follow -up mechanism should be established for the treatment of VSD after interventional therapy.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of high resolution ultrasound combined with radiological imaging in the diagnosis of Meckel′s diverticulitis (MD),and to analyze the causes of missed diagnosis as well as misdiagnosis by ultrasound.Methods The image data of 61 patients with MD were retrospectively analyzed,the essentials and the causes of missed diagnosis as well as misdiagnosis of ultrasound were summarized and compared with the results of operation,CT,gastrointestinal contrast,as well as radionuclide.Results The patients were divided into simple type(18,29.5%) and complex type(43,70.5%) according to ultrasonography.The simple type diagnostic accuracy rate was 100%,the ultrasonography showed the right lower abdominal tubular bowel shadow or cystic echo mass,and the structure of diverticulum could clearly showed by ultrasound.In another side,the complex type diagnostic accuracy rate was 55.8%,the ultrasonography showed the right lower abdominal mixed echo mass or concomitant with other alimentary tract malformation,while the diverticulum structure was difficult to be distinguished.The diagnostic accuracy rate of radionuclide imaging was 83.6%,CT was 37.0%,while gastrointestinal contrast was 30.0%.Among 19 cases of misdiagnosis by ultrasound,13 cases of MD were confirmed by radionuclide and CT examination,the diagnostic accuracy rate of ultrasound combined with radiological imaging diagnosis was 90.2%.Conclusions The sonographic features of MD are lack of specificity,especially in the complex type,while the patients with recurrent hemafecia or acute abdomen should be alert to the presence of MD.Patients who are suspected of MD by ultrasound diagnosis should also be examined by radiological imaging in order to make an early diagnosis and surgical treatment to improve the prognosis of patients.

Objective: To study the protective effect in CCl4-induced liver injury by organoselenium from Se-enriched lactobacillus. Methods: (1) In the first series, forty-five animals were randomly divided into control (C) group, CCl4 group, CCl4 plus organoselenium group (CCl4-Se group). The liver injury was induced by abdominal injection of CCl4 every other day for 4 w. Changes of GSH-Px, CAT and SOD activities as well as MDA content in liver were estimated in the 2nd and 4th week after CCl4 injection respectively. (2) In the second series, forty-eight mice were randomly divided into C group, CCl4 group, CCl4 plus low dose organoselenium group (CCl4-LSe group) and CCl4 plus high dose organoselenium group (CCl4-HSe group). Changes of hepatocyte [Ca2+]i in animals in every group were investigated by means of confocal laser microscope on the 4th and 8th day after CCl4 injection respectively. Results: During the entire experimental period, liver MDA of CCl4 group was markedly superior to that of C and CCl4-Se groups, and the level of latter two groups was very close. The GSH-Px and CAT activities were higher in CCl4-Se group than in CCl4 group,but lower than that of C group. There were higher SOD activities in C and CCl4-Se groups compared to that in CCl4 group though without obvious difference. Average fluorescence pixels of hepatocyte [Ca2+]i in CCl4 group was 2.8 and 5.5 times higher than that of group C in the 4th and 8th day respectively,while those in CCl4-Se groups were significantly lower than those of CCl4 group, and close to C group. Conclusions: Organoselenium from Se-enriched lactobacillus, can protect hepatocyte [Ca2+]i homeostasis by reducing lipid peroxidation after CCl4 exposure.
