Objective To investigate the expression of tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?) and intracellular adhesion molecular-1(ICAM-1) in brain tissue after experimental intracerebral hemorrhage in rats.Methods Experimental intracerebral hemorrhage model was maded by injection autologous blood using stereotactic method. The expression of TNF-? and ICAM-1 in cerebral tissues at different time were detected by using immunohistochemitry techniques.Results TNF-? expression raised obviously at 6 h and peaked at 48 h.ICAM-1 expression raised obviously at 12 h and peaked at 72 h.There was obvious difference between each intracerebral hemorrhage group and controls(all P

Objective To assess the dignosis value of CT three-dimensional reconstruction with Fisher discriminant model in small solitary pulmonary nodules before operation.Methods CT data of 40 cases with SPN were retrospectively analyzed and divided into into malignant pulmonary nodules (25 cases),squamous cell carcinoma (4 cases),adenocarcinoma (13 cases),lung cancer (4 ca-ses),small cell lung cancer (2 cases),large cell carcinoma (1 case),metastases tumor (1 case),benign nodules (1 5 cases,6 cases of tuberculosis,2 cases of hamartoma,and 7 cases of non-specific inflammatory nodules)by pathology and follow-up results.The CT features of pulmonary nodules were evaluated through multi-planar reformation (MPR),curved-planar reformation (CPR),volume rendering (VR),maximum intensity proj ection (MIP)and other three-dimensional reconstruction.The three-dimensional data were divided into benign and malignant groups.In each of the two groups,the significant signs of morphological signs of discrimination indicators were adminstrated Fisher discriminant,and the probalitiy of false positives were estimated using cross-validation method. Results The positive features of pulmonary nodules in there-dismensional images were much more than in two-dimensional images. Fisher discriminant formula of solitary pulmonary nodules in three-dimensional images was Z=1.143X1 + 0.454X2+1.606X3-0.262X4+0.04X5+0.483X6+1.611X7-2.164.Discriminant boundary value Zc was-0.516.When Zcgreater than -0.516,nodules were proneed to considere as malignant nodules.In 25 cases of malignant nodules,4 cases mistook for benign.When Zc less than -0.516,nodules were proneed to considere as benign nod-ules.In 1 5 benign nodules,2 cases mistook for malignant.The total misdiagnosis and accuracy rate were 15 % and 85% respec-tively.Conclusion CT three-dimensional reconstruction combined with Fisher discriminant model have a high clinical value in dif-fereiating diagonsis of pulmonary nodules were proneed to considere as malignant nodules.In 25 cases of malignant nodules,4 cases mistook for benign.When Zc less than -0.516,nodules were proneed to considere as benign nodules. In 15 benign nodules,2 cases mistook for malignant.The total misdiagnosis and accuracy rate were 15 % and 85% respec-tively.Conclusion CT three-dimensional reconstruction combined with Fisher discriminant model have a high clinical value in differeiating diagonsis of pulmonary nodules.

Objective:To evaluate the oncologic and functional outcomes of postcricoid carcinoma treated by surgical treatment, and to summarize our clinical experience in surgical treatment and reconstructive techniques.Methods:Medical files of 45 patients were collected and retrospectively analyzed. The patients received surgical treatments between January 2010 and May 2017 in the Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, including 39 males and 6 females, the age ranged from 41 to 78 years old. T1, T2, T3 and T4 staging tumors represented respectively for 2,13,23 and 7 cases. And cervical metastasis was histologically identified in 33 cases (8 for N1 and 25 for N2). Advanced staging patients (10 in Stage Ⅲ and 30 in Stage Ⅳ) accounted for 88.9% of the cohort, while early staging cases (1 in Stage Ⅰand 4 in Stage Ⅱ) for 10.1%. All patients received cervical lymph node dissection. After tumor excision without compromising margins, hypopharyngeal functions were reconstructed by residual mucosa, pectoralis major myocutaneous flap, laryngotracheal tissue flap or gastric tissue flap, and laryngeal functions were reconstructed by epiglottis, sternohyoid myofascial flap or thyroid perichondrium. Survival rates were analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method.Results:Postoperatively 23 patients received radiotherapy and 13 patients received chemoradiotherapy. All patients were followed up for more than 3 years. Total 3-year and 5-year survival rates were 60.5% and 49.0%, respectively. Patients obtaining the conservation of laryngeal functions accounted for 44% (20/45) of all cases. The neck lymph node positive rate was 73.3%(33/45), and log-rank test demonstrated that cervical lymph node metastasis was significantly associated with prognosis of patients (χ 2=4.364, P=0.037). Conclusion:Appropriate surgical approaches and excision methods and comprehensive application of flaps are critical to precise tumor excision and reconstruction of laryngeal functions, thereby improving the quality of life of patients with posterior carcinoma.

Objective: To report the experience in comprehensive surgical treatment of pyriform sinus carcinoma via the paraglottic space approach. Methods: Three hundred and thirty-five cases with pyriform sinus carcinoma (according to UICC 2012 criteria, stage Ⅰ, 12 cases; Ⅱ, 36; Ⅲ, 79; Ⅳ, 208; T1, 26; T2, 139; T3, 121; T4, 49; cN0, 83; cN1, 61; cN2a-b, 118; cN2c, 71; cN3, 2) treated between 2006 and 2013 were retrospectively reviewed. There were 323 males and 12 females. Age aged from 36 to 80 years old with a median of 60 years old. There was no case with distant metastasis. All patients received modified neck dissection, including unilateral in 240 patients and bilateral in 95 patients. Pharyngoesophageal defects were reconstructed with directly suture in 246 cases, pectoralis major musculocutaneous flaps in 74 cases, and laryngotracheal flaps in 15 cases. Three hundred and nineteen patients received postoperative radiotherapy (55-65 Gy). Results: The overall 3 and 5 year survival rates were 68.6% (230/335) and 52.1%(139/267), respectively. The cervical lymph node metastases were found in 265 (79.1%) patients. Pathologic findings showed that all patients had squamous cell carcinoma. Laryngeal functions (voice, respiration and deglutition) were completely restored in 277 (82.7%) patients. Conclusions The oncological efficacy of surgery via the paraglottic space approach is sure for pyriform sinus carcinoma, especially suitable for the early and medium-term lesions. The function of the larynx can retain after surgery, with the decreased incidences of cough and pharynx fistula.

Objective: To summarize clinical experience in surgical treatment of supraglottic carcinoma and reconstructive techniques. Methods: Medical files of 184 patients (173 men, 11 women) were collected and retrospectively analyzed, who underwent surgeries between January 2008 and December 2012 at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University. Among them, T1, T2, T3 and T4 staging tumors accounted respectively for 14.1% (26/184), 41.9%(77/184), 31.5%(58/184) and 12.5%(23/184). Cervical metastasis was histologically identified in 86 cases (98 for N0, 31 for N1 and 55 for N2). Advanced cases (56 cases at stage Ⅲ and 67 at stage Ⅳ), early cases (22 at stage Ⅰ and 39 at stage Ⅱ) accounted respectively for 66.8% and 33.2%. Supraglottic horizontal laryngectomy or total laryngectomy was performed to allow for tumor excision without compromising margins and the tongue flap or sternohyoidmyofascial flap was subsequently used for repairing the defect after removal of tumor. Survival rates were analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: Patients receiving conservation laryngeal surgery accounted for 75.5% (139/184). The 3-year and 5-year survival rates for all cases were 84.2% and 70.7%, respectively. Log-rank test demonstrated that cervical lymph node metastasis, primary tumor staging and clinical TNM staging were significantly associated with prognoses of patients (P=0.003, 0.010, 0.035). Dysphagia was not observed in any case and speech function was maintained in petients with partial laryngectomy. Conclusion Adequate pre-operative evaluation, individualized treatment, and comprehensive application of flaps for repair are critical to precise tumor excision and reconstruction of laryngeal functions.
