The golden standard for the treatment of invasive bladder cancer is radical cystectomy. However its application is limited in certain circumstances because of surgical trauma,complications,and impacts on quality of life. As organ preservation protocols have become the standard in the treatment of some malignancies such as breast cancer、anal cancer、esophageal cancer,the multimodality treatment with bladder preservation was introduced to cure invasive bladder cancer, which can retain normal bladder function without a marked compromise of overall survival and is a viable, reasonable alternative for the treatment of invasive bladder cancer. This review highlights the advances in multimodality treatment with bladder preservation for invasive bladder cancer.

The competence of scientific research ethnical review in domestic hospital was inadequate,which was associated with the development of medical ethnics,values of Chinese traditional society,unsound domestic laws and regulations,weak administrative management,unqualified committee of medical ethnics,the drive of scientific deriving interests and restriction of project funds.Aiming at the above problems,countermeasures were carried out to strengthen the construction of laws and regulations,strengthen the constraint of administrative management,standardize the self-construction of ethnic committee,implement the standard operative procedure,thus to provide a reference for the standardized construction of scientific research ethnical review.

Objective To construct a nomogram for estimating disease free survival of node-positive penile cancer treated with surgery.MethodsThe clinicopathological data of 32 node-positive penile squamous cell carcinoma patients were retrospectively reviewed.All patients had undergone primary tumor excision and regional lymphadenectomy.The pathological records showed that 10 were N1,13 were N2 and 9 were N3.Median level of preoperative squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCCAg) was O.9 μg/L.With a median follow-up of 16.5 months,13 patients developed recurrence.Based on the stage,histological grade and preoperative serum squamous cell carcinoma antigen level,a nomogram was drawn on the basis of the Cox regression model.Results Stage and preoperative serum SCCAg levels were independent prognostic factors for disease free survival in node-positive penile cancer treated with surgery.The hazard ratio of SCCAg level and N stage was 2.76 (95％ CI:1.40-5.44,P=0.0034) and 28.51 (95％ CI:2.55 -319.11,P =0.0066).The nomogram demonstarted good discrimination and calibration with a concordance index of 0.855.Conclusions Based on the N stage and preoperative serum SCCAg level,a nomogram to predict disease free survival in node-positive penile cancer treated with surgery was set up.The prediction model could be helpful in predicting the risk of recurrence.

Objective To evaluate the prognostic value of bilateral inguinal lymph node metastases in node-positive penile cancer. Methods Sixty patients with surgically resected node-positive penile cancer were analyzed. All the patients underwent regional lymph node dissection. Recurrence free survival curves were plotted by Kaplan-Meier method and compared by the Log-rank test. Multivariate survival analysis was performed using Cox regression model. Results Of all the patients, 18 cases had bilateral inguinal lymph node metastases. The 3-year recurrence free survival rate in patients with bilateral invovlement was significantly lower than those with unilateral disease (26.7 % vs 65.3 %, χ2 =10.6, P=0.001). In order to evaluate wether the prognostic significance of bilateral lymph node metastases was dependent of increased number of positive nodes, the two predictors were included in multivariate survival analysis.Both the number of metastatic nodes and bilateral nodal disease were independent prognostic factors (P ＜0.05).Comparisons of survival curves showed those patients with bilateral nodal disease and more than 2 metastatic nodes had worst outcome. Conclusion Bilateral inguinal lymph node metastases is an important prognostic factor in penile cancer irrespective of the number of positive lymph node.

Objective To explore the application value of optimal energy imaging technique of monoenergetic dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) in feeding arteries examination of rectal cancer.Methods The clinical data of 33 patients with rectal cancer who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University from July 2012 to July 2014 were analyzed retrospectively.The polychromatic and monochromatic images of feeding arteries of tumors were reconstructed and evaluated using a subjective image quality score of 5-point scale by 2 observers.The consistency and scores of evaluation were analyzed by the κ test and MannWhitney U test.The CT value of feeding arteries of tumors and hip muscle,image noise and contrast to noise ratio (CNR) were measured and calculated by 2 observers,and were compared by the independent sample t test.The consistency of data between the 2 observers were measured by the intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC).Results Inferior mesenteric arteries were contributor of blood supply of tumors in all the 33 patients,including 4 cases with right inferior rectal artery as contributor of blood supply of tumors,2 cases with bilateral inferior rectal artery.Among patients with abnormal blood vessels,there were 8 patients with left colic artery and sigmoid artery having common trunk,4 patients with left colic artery originated from Inferior mesenteric artery,1 patient with absence of left colic artery.The 0-,1-,2-,3-,4-score polychromatic image quality of feeding arteries of tumors were detected in 0,13,13,5,2 patients and 0,11,14,6,2 patients by 2 observers,respectively.The 0-,1-,2-,3-,4-score monochromatic image quality of feeding arteries of tumors were detected in 0,0,7,7,19 patients and 0,0,6,9,18 patients by 2 observers,respectively.Good interobserver agreement was found for the evaluation of subjective scores (κ =0.864,0.897).The subjective scores of image quality of feeding arteries in the polychromatic images and in the monochromatic images were 1.9 ± 0.9 and 3.4 ± 0.8,with significant difference (Z =-5.21,P ＜ 0.05).The latter was superior to the former.The ICC values of the CT values of feeding arteries of tumor,hip muscle,image noise and CNR were 0.953,0.907,0.839,0.964 and 0.966,0.933,0.952,0.962 from the 2 observers,with a good consistency.The CT values of feeding arteries of tumor,gluteal muscles,image noise and CNR in the polychromatic images and in the monochromatic images were (234 ± 52)HU and (412±83)HU,(57±9)HU and (71 ±15)HU,(21 ±3)HU and (31 ±6)HU,9 ±3 and 11 ±4,respectively,with significant differences (t =-18.65,-4.44,-14.14,-6.55,P ＜ 0.05).The levels of monochromatic images of 33 patients were 51-61 keV,with a median of 55 keV.Conclusion The optimal energy imaging technique of monoenergetic DECT can improve the angiographic quality of feeding arteries in patients with rectal cancer.

PurposeTo investigate the effects of the low concentration contrast medium combined with optimal single source spectral imaging on displaying feeding arteries of gastrointestinal tract malignant tumors.Materials and Methods Seventy-one patients of body mass index (BMI) >25 kg/m2 with gastrointestinal tract malignant tumors were prospectively studied. All the cases were randomly divided into two groups: high concentration group (33 cases with high concentration contrast medium of 350 mgI/ml in routine scan) and low concentration group (38 cases with low concentration contrast medium of 270 mgI/ml in optimal single source spectral imaging). The optimal single source images were generated automatically. The subjective image scores, CT value of the tumor feeding arteries, image noise, contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and CT dose index of volume (CTDIvol) of optimal single source spectral images in two groups were compared. Results The optimal single source of low concentration group were 51-60 keV. The subjective image score of low concentration group was higher than high concentration group (Z=-4.280,P<0.01). The consistency between the two investigators was good (Kappa=0.824 and 0.843,P<0.05). The consistency between the two investigators in evaluating CT value of the tumor feeding arteries, CT value at the right erector spinal muscle, image noise and CNR data was good (ICChigh concentration group=0.998, 0.968, 0.959 and 0.990; ICClow concentration group=0.988, 0.981, 0.969 and 0.937). The CT values of the tumor feeding arteries and CNR of the low concentration group were higher than that of the high concentration group, but the image noise was lower than that of high concentration group (t=-14.937, 4.263 and-17.264,P<0.01). There was no statistical difference of CTDIvol between the two groups (t=1.278,P>0.05).Conclusion The low concentration contrast medium with optimal single source spectral imaging in patients with large BMI may improve CTA image quality of feeding arteries of gastrointestinal tract malignant tumors without increasing radiation dose.

Objective:This study aimed to detect the special methylation profile in peripheral blood for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods:The methylation status of 12 tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) in the plasma of 55 HCCs and 54 chronic liver diseases (CLDs) was tested by methylation-specific PCR (MSP). Results:In HCC, the methylation frequencies were 78.18%in APC, 63.64%in cyclin D2, 58.18% in TFPI2, 49.09% in DKK3, 49.09% in GSTP1, 47.27% in p16, 40.00% in Sigma 14-3-3, 18.18% in SFRP2, 16.36% in ppENK, 9.09% in DKK2, 7.27% in NPTX2, and 5.45% in LHX1. In CLD, the methylation frequencies were 27.78% in APC, 22.22%in cyclin D2, 7.41%in TFPI2, 3.70%in DKK3, 16.67%in GSTP1, 37.04%in p16, 37.04%in Sigma 14-3-3, 11.11%in SFRP2, 20.37%in ppENK, 7.41%in DKK2, 7.41%in NPTX2, and 9.26%in LHX1. The methylation frequencies of APC, cyclin D2, TFPI2, DKK3, and GSTP1 were higher in HCC than in CLD (P<0.01). The methylation index (MI) of the five-gene methylation profile was statistically higher in HCC (median, 0.6;IQR, 0.4-0.8) than CLD (median, 0.2;IQR, 0-0.2) (P<0.01). In HCC, MI was statistically related to the patient's age. Older patients with HCC had a higher MI. No significant correlation was observed between MI and other clinicopathological data. Moreover, MI was not related to the disease free survival and the overall survival in HCC. Conclusion:This five-gene methylation profile may be a promising biomarker for the assistant diagnosis of HCC.

Objective To observe the effects of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) on coagulation during lung trangplantation.Method Forty cases of end stage lung diseases received bilateral sequential single lung transplantation during July 2007 and Mar.2012.The patients were divided into two groups in terms of ECMO.ECMO was applied before lung transplantation if needed.The amount of bleeding during surgery was recorded.The venous blood samples were collected during and after operation for the measurements of the following parameters:activated whole blood clot time (ACT),prothrombin time (PT),activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT),thrombin time (TT) and plasma fibrinogen (Fg).Result The coagulation and the amount of bleeding showed no significant difference between the two groups.Wound infection occurred in 2 patients where the ECMO tube was inserted and femoral arterial thrombosis in one patient.All of the three patients were cured and discharged.Conclusion ECMO didn't cause excessive bleeding or coagulation dysfunction during lung transplantation,yet it maybe increase the occurrence of local thrombosis.

Objective:To learn the cognition and attitudes of psychometric ethics of graduate students whose major was clinical psychology or counseling psychology,and to investigate whether ethics training could influence their cognition and attitude.Methods:Researchers distributed the questionnaire online regarding cognition and attitudes of psychometric ethics among clinical and counseling psychology graduate students.Seventy-six feedbacks were collected (4 students were learning ethics courses,27 students had learned ethics courses,45 students hadnt learned ethics courses).The questionnaire included the Psychometric Cognition Questionnaire (PCQ),Situational Judgement Questionnaire (SJQ) and Psychometric Attitude Questionnaire (PAQ).The first two sets of questionnaires reflected ethics knowledge.The last one showed ethics attitudes and behavioral tendencies.Results:The correct rates in participants who had learned or were learning ethics were 76.5％ and 75.1％ at the first and second set of questionnaires,while were 73.9％ and 74.2％ in other participants.The correct rates of three major clauses in PCQ were 90.3％,67.7％ and 74.2％,significantly higher than participants who never learned ethics,whose correct rates were 88.9％,66.7％,and 44.4％ (Ps ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in SJQ between those who had learned or was learning ethics and those who had never learned ethics (Ps ＞0.05).Participants who had learned or were leaning ethics scored in sum in PAQ that had no significant differences with those who had never learned ethics(Ps ＞ 0.05).Conclusion:Clinical and counseling psychology graduate students master considerable level of knowledge on ethics and attitude.Ethics training is essential for acquiring psychometric ethics.

Objective To assess the utility of single source-dual energy CT for distinguishing bladder cancer from hematoma. Methods We retrospectively identified 14 patients with postoperative or follow-up bladder hematoma who had undergone dual energy protocol (40-140 keV)scanning by single source-dual energy CT.The subjective scoring of tumor detection and image quality,the optimal monochrome images and iodine-water images were evaluated by two radiologists who didn’t know the results.The consistency of two observers was analyzed by Kappa test.Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the difference between the two kinds of diseases and ROC curve was used to analyze the diagnostic efficiency.The statistical differences of image quality scoring among different images were obtained by using Mann-Whitney U test.Results The consistency of the two observers about scoring of lesion detection was good for all groups.There were statistical differences between two groups in non-enhanced phase and arterial phase of mixed-energy images,non-enhanced phase,arterial phase and delayed phase of optimal monochromatic images,and all phase of iodine-water images. The AUC of iodine-water images in the four phases (0.985,1.000,0.955,0.924,respectively)were all higher than that of polychrome unenhanced and arterial phase images (0.909,0.909).The diagnostic efficiency of arterial phase on iodine-water images was the highest.Sensitivity and specificity were both 100% when score was greater than 2.5.There was no statistical difference between two kinds of diseases on non-enhanced phase,delayed phases of mixed-energy or monochromatic images(P >0.05).There were no statistical differences in image quality scoring among the three groups with the same phases (P>0.05).Conclusion Optimal monochromatic images and iodine-water images of single source-dual energy CT are more effective than conventional CT in distinguishing bladder cancer from hematoma.
