[Summary] Radical prostatectomy, external beam radiation and active surveillance are the main treatments for localized prostate cancer. However, many patients are difficult to accept the psychological burden of active surveillance and the distress caused by potential side effects of radical therapy, including incontinence and erectile dysfunction, which make them limited. With the development of minimally invasive techniques, such as brachytherapy, cryoablation, high-intensity focused ultrasound, photodynamic therapy, and irreversible electroporation, novel procedures are playing an increasingly important role in the treatment of localized prostate cancer with their effective, minimally invasive, and safe advantages. This article mainly reviewed the above several minimally invasive treatment methods.

Melanoma is the most aggressive and lethal malignant tumor in skin cancers. Operation resection is used to treat stageⅠ/Ⅱmelanomas, but traditional operation, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy inflicts adverse effects on late-stage melanomas. StageⅢ/Ⅳmelanomas are some of the most ineffectively treated tumors with poor prognosis. As a cancer treatment, targeted immunotherapy in-hibits negative regulatory factors and enhances systemic anti-tumor immune effects. Radiotherapy not only kills tumor cells, but also en-hances systemic immune responses. Recent studies showed that targeted immunotherapy combined with radiotherapy can promote con-trol on local and distant tumors and prolong overall survival. The synergistic effects of these two therapies are superior to a single thera-py. This review summarized the progress on these research fields.

Objective To study the survival,growth and function restoration of fetal ovary allotransplantation.Methods 18~20 days fresh and frozen-thawed rat ovaries were ectopic allotransplanted subcutaneously to adult female SD rats that had been castrated for 4 weeks.Vaginal smears were taken daily after transplantation to observe the restoration of estrous cycles,and serum oestradiol(E_2) and progesterone(P) levels were measured at different time.Histological morphology of endometrium and ovaries were compared among four groups.Results 52.17%of the recipients in fresh group and 38.01% in frozen-thawed group resulted in restoration of regular estrous cyclic activity,and hormone level became normal on day 35 and day 49 after transplantation.The grafts grew up and follicles in different developing stage and corpora lutea could be observed under microscope.Endometrium had hormone effects.Conclusions This study indicates that subcutaneously allotransplanted fetal ovaries can survive,develop and restore the function of secreting sex hormone.The ultraspeed cooling rats fetal ovaries can be survival when they were thawed and develop and secrete hormone as fresh ovaries after being allotransplanted.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of real time elastosonography in estimating the characteristic of nodules in resected hepatocirrhosis specimens.Methods Thirty-eight reseeted hepatocirrhosis specimens underwent elastosonography.The nodules that have drawn attention were performed elastosonography through rhythmic pressing and releasing the probe by manual form on the liver.The hepatic strain on the region of interest was shown by chromatic scale.To compare nodules rigidity with surrounding hepatic tissues, hepatocirrhosis nodules were classified into hard nodules, medium rigidity nodules, mixture of hard and soft nodules, and soft nodules.All nodules were confirmed by pathology.Results Forty-four nodules of 38 hepatocirrhosis exemplar received real time elastosonography.Of 44 nodules, hard nodules were 18,of which 12 (66.7%) were hepatoeellular carcinomas, 2 (11.1%) were dysplasia nodules, 4 (22.2%) were regenerative nodules.Medium rigidity nodules were 7,all were regenerative nodules.Mixture of hard and soft nodules were 11, of which 8 (72.7%) were hepatocellular carcinomas, including 4 accompanied necrotic tissue, 1 (9.1%) was dysplasia nodules accompanied necrotic tissue, the other 2 (18.2%) were regenerative nodules accompanied necrotic tissue.And soft nodules were 8, of which 4(50.0%) were necrotic nodules, 1 (12.5%) was dysplasia nodules accompanied canceration, 1 (12.5%) was hepatocellular carcinoma,2(25.0 %) were regenerative nodules.Conclusions Real time elastosonography can effectively evaluate the comparative rigidity on hepatoeirrhosis nodules,and thus may have potential usefulness on estimating the characteristic of hepatocirrhosis nodules.

Objective To investigate the correlation of XRCC1 Arg194Trp Arg399Gln Single nucleotide polymor-phism (SNP) with radiotherapy response of squamous cell carcinoma of cervix. Methods Patients with exogenous type cer-vical squamous cell carcinoma confirmed by histopathology were selected for our study. These include:patients in stageⅠ(4 cases), patients in stageⅡ(36 cases), patients in stageⅢ(30 cases), patients in stageⅣ (3 cases). There are 30 patients with tumor diameter less than 4 cm and 43 patients with tumor diameter over 4 cm in our test. There are 36 cases with dose point A less than 80 Gy and 37 cases with dose point A over 80 Gy . Radiotherapy outcomes showed 47 cases of complete re-mission and 26 cases of part remission. Polymorphisms Arg194Trp, Arg399Gln of XRCC1 gene in 73 cervical cancer pa-tients were analyzed by mismatch amplification polymerase chain reaction (MAMA-PCR). Results Arg/Arg, Arg/Trp, TrP/Trp of Arg194Trp genotype distribution were 31 (42.5%), 37 (50.7%), 5 (6.8%) respectively. Arg/Arg, Arg/Gln, Gln/Gln of Arg399Gln distribution were 6 (35.6%), 39 (53.4%), 8 (11.0%) respectively. The response to radiotherapy was not statistical-ly significant in three genotypes, Arg/Arg, Arg/Trp, TrP/Trp of XRCC1 at codon 194(P>0.05). Neither was XRCC1 at codon 399. Multivariate analysis showed that late clinical stage was a risk factor of part remission. Conclusion SNP of XRCC1 gene at codon 194 and codon 399 could not predict clinical response of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of cervix to ra-diotherapy. The patients with advanced cervical cancer had poor response to radiotherapy.

Objective To probe into the value of micro-perfusion examination at the early stage after right lobe living donor liver transplantation by contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS). Methods Twenty-six recipients of right lobe living donor liver transplantation received CEUS examination at 1,7,15 and 30 days respectively after operation using contrast medium SonoVue. Perfusion patterns were observed and analyzed considering operation method. Results Of 26 recipients, 15 cases showed normal perfusion patterns with normal hemodynamics; 11 cases showed abnormal perfusion patterns with abnormal hemodynamics:8 had conduit venous obstruction,4 high portal vein blood flow. The abnormal patterns was in the early arterial phase of enhancement process at the first day examination, showing hyper- and hypo- enhancement area compared with normal liver parenchyma. And the difference gradually disappeared in the subsequent examination. Conclusions Abnormal micro-perfusion patterns are highly related to abnormal inflow and outflow in the early post operation stage. The main reasons are conduit venous obstruction and excessive perfusion of portal vein. CEUS can be used as an effective method in evaluating the graft micro-perfusion.

The elimination of hepatitis B virus is not straightforward in chronic hepatitis B patients. A prolonged treatment and chance of recurrence after stopping the drug is a matter of concern for majority of specialists and patients. The traditional monitoring indicators and new serological markers for strengthening the determination of standard antiviral treatment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) has an important meaning towards clinical treatment and treatment protocol guiding regulations.

Objective:To investigate the effect of intensive lipid-lowering therapy on carotid artery intima-media thickness and plaque area in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods:Eighty-two patients with acute cerebral infarction who received treatment at the Changzhi Mental Health Center from July 2021 to July 2022 were included in this study. Using a randomized controlled trial design, the patients were randomly divided into an intensive treatment group ( n = 41) and a conventional treatment group ( n = 41) using the random number table method. All patients had surpassed the recommended time window for thrombolysis and were given conventional treatments, including antiplatelet aggregation and neuroprotection. The conventional treatment group received conventional lipid-lowering therapy, while the intensive treatment group underwent intensive lipid-lowering therapy. All treatments lasted 6 months. The levels of blood lipids (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and total cholesterol), inflammatory factors (C-reactive protein and interleukin-6), and atherosclerosis indicators (carotid artery intima-media thickness and plaque area) were measured and compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Adverse reactions occurring during the treatment period, including myalgia, nausea, vomiting, and abnormal liver function were also recorded. Results:Before treatment, there were no significant differences in blood lipids, inflammatory factors or atherosclerosis indicators between the conventional treatment and intensive treatment groups (all P > 0.05). After treatment, the levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and total cholesterol in the intensive treatment group were significantly lower than those in the conventional treatment group [(3.44 ± 0.42) mmol/L vs. (4.81 ± 0.53) mmol/L, (3.46 ± 0.35) mmol/L vs. (2.41 ± 0.27) mmol/L, t = 12.97, 15.21, both P < 0.05]. After treatment, serum levels of interleukin-6 and C-reactive protein in the intensive treatment group were significantly lower than those in the conventional treatment group [(4.79 ± 0.53) mg/L vs. (6.97 ± 0.81) mg/L, (38.45 ± 4.14) pg/L vs. (49.66 ± 5.07) pg/L, t = 14.42, 10.97, both P < 0.05]. Carotid artery intima-media thickness and plaque area in the intensive treatment group were significantly smaller than those in the conventional treatment group [(0.98 ± 0.10) mm vs. (1.17 ± 0.12) mm, (13.04 ± 1.37) mm 2vs. (17.96 ± 1.89 mm 2, t = 7.79, 13.50, both P < 0.001). There was no significant difference in the overall incidence of adverse reactions during treatment between the intensive treatment and conventional treatment groups ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:Intensive lipid-lowering therapy is highly effective in patients with acute cerebral infarction. It can reduce inflammatory reactions, delay the progression of atherosclerosis, and provide a safety profile similar to that of conventional lipid-lowering therapy.
