Acromegaly is an endocrine and metabolic disease with insidious onset. Delays in its diagnosis and treatment significantly increase the incidence of complications. Early detection, diagnosis, and treatment are extremely important for the prognosis of patients with acromegaly. Based on a large quantity of evidence in recent years, Chinese Expert Consensus on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Acromegaly(2020) has standardized the diagnosis and the treatment strategies of acromegaly. In the non-surgical treatment section, according to the categories of drugs used to treat acromegaly, the indications, selection, administration, dosage and precautions of pharmaceutical treatment have been clarified with specific recommendations. It is hoped that the new consensus can further guide and standardize the clinical management of acromegaly.

Objective To investigate the curative effect of surgery,radiotherapy and photodynamic therapy combined with chemotherapy on early glottic carcinoma and prognostic factors.Methods Clinical data of 122 cases of early glottic carcinoma with Tis ~T2 N0 M0 were analyzed retrospectively.Small doses of chemotherapy applied to single drug cisplatin (according to the surface area of 50 mg/m2 ).83 patients underwent surgical treatments combined with chemotherapy,20 cases accepted radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy and 19 cases accepted photodynamic therapy combined with chemotherapy. Results The 3 and 5 years overall survival rates (overall survival,OS ) of surgery group,radiotherapy group and photodynamic group were 92.7%,93.8% and 89.5%,89.5% and 84.4% ,89.5%,respectively.The 2-year disease free survival rate (disease-freesurvival,DFS)were 87.6%,79.4%,78.6%,respectively.The 2-year local control rate(local control,LC)were 91.9%,84.4%,83.0%, respectively.27 cases suffered from tumor recurrence or metastasis,15 cases in the surgery group,3 cases in the radiotherapy group and 5 cases in the photodynamic group,among them 19 patients accepted salvage surgery.Multifactor retrospective analysis indicated anterior commissure invasion (P=0.047),clinical stage(P =0.018)and KPS score before treatment(P =0.001)were independent adverse prognostic factors for OS.Anterior commissure invasion(P=0.027)and differentiation degree(P=0.041)were adverse prognostic factors for DFS.Anterior commissure invasion was also poor prognostic features for LC(P=0.047).Conclusion Radiotherapy and photodynamic therapy combined with chemotherapy may be the first or very important treatment on early stage glottic squamous cell cancer(Tis ~T2N0M0 ).High preservation rate of laryngeal function with radiotherapy and photodynamic therapy combined with chemotherapy can significantly improved quality of life of patients.Curative effect of three groups was similar,and three kinds of curative methods achieved good effect.KPS score before treatment,glottis impair and differentiation degree were the main adverse prognostic factors for early stage glottic carcinoma.

Objective To explore the application value of new pre-operation auxiliary chemotherapy(NACT)in treating cervical carcinoma. Methods Two periods of chemotherapy were conducted on 53 cervical carcinoma patients;the chemotherapy projects were PVB and BIP;operation was made two weeks afterwards. Results The total effective rate of NACT was 77.4% ,26.4% of which was complete remission;50.9% of which was partial remission;local carcinoma bulk decreased significantly; the post-operation pathology indicated that there was 3.8% of uterus infiltration and 7.1% of pelvic cavity lymph node metastasis. Those patients received chemotherapy after the operation,all patients were followed up. Conclusion NACT is safe and effective for the pre-operation treatment of cervical carcinoma,which can reduce the carcinoma bulk and increase the successful rate of the operation.

Objective To investigate the incidence of metabolic syndrome (MS) in patients with gastric cancer, and to explore the relationship between MS and the tumor site and the influence of MS on surgical procedure and short-term outcomes of patients with gastric cancer. Methods The clinical data of 639 patients with gastric cancer who were admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2006 to June 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with MS were in the MS group ( n= 64) and those without MS were in the control group ( n = 575 ). The surgical and postoperative complications were reviewed and the tumor site, intraoperative conditions and short-term outcomes between the two groups were analyzed. All data were analyzed using the chi-square test or t test. Results The incidence of MS in patients with gastric cancer was 10.0% (64/639).The incidence of MS in female patients was 14.4% (27/188), which was significantly higher than 8.2% (37/451)of male patients ( χ2= 6.265, P < 0.05). The operation time of the MS group was ( 185 ± 133 ) minutes, which was significantly longer than ( 168 ± 50) minutes of the control group ( t = 2. 126, P < 0. 05 ). The number of lymph nodes dissected in the MS group was 18 ± 11, which was significantly lower than 21 ± 11 of the control group ( t = 2. 125, P < 0.05 ). The postoperative period of fever of the MS group was (3.0 ± 1.4) days, which was significantly longer than (2.5 ± 1.4) days of the control group (t = 2. 433, P < 0.05 ). The incidence of postoperative complications of the MS group was 31.3% (20/64), which was significantly higher than 14.3% (82/575) of the control group ( χ2 = 12.291, P < 0.05 ). The length of hospital stay of the MS group was ( 19 ± 11 ) days,which was significantly longer than ( 16±11 ) days of the control group ( t = 2. 141, P< 0.05 ). The mortalities of MS group and control group were 0 and 0. 5% (3/575), respectively, with no significant difference ( χ2 = 0.000,P >0.05). Condusions A low prevalence of MS is found in patients with gastric cancer. However, patients with gastric cancer complicated with MS may present with prolonged surgical procedure, reduced amount of lymph nodes dissected and increased incidence of postoperative complications, hospital stay and costs. Perioperative management of patients with gastric cancer complicated with MS should be paid more attention.

Objective To investigate the expression of fragile histidine triad (FHIT) gene in cervical carci-noma and relationship with its clinical-pathological implication. Methods The expression of FHIT was detected by immunohistochemistry SP method in 42 cases of cervical carcinoma and 13 cases of adjacent tissue. Results 47.6% (20 of 42) of cases expressed FttIT in the tumor cells,and 92.3% (12 of 13) of cases of the adjacent tissue were present. There was a significant positive correlation between cervical carcinoma and adjacent tissue(P <0.01). The positive rates of FHIT in high and middle desrees of differentiation were significantly higher than that in low degree of differentiation(54.2% vs 38.9%). Tumors with lymph node metastases(45.9%) had loss FHIT protein expression than those without metastasis(60.0%) (P <0.05). The FHIT expression between Ⅰ and Ⅱ stage,the difference was significant(55.0% vs 45.5%) (P < 0.05). Conclusion FHIT gene plays an improtant role in the occurrence and development of cervical carcinoma. It is suggested that FHIT can be a useful marker for predicting invasion and metas-tasis ability of cervical carcinoma.
