Objective To assess the diagnostic value in breast nodules with ultrasontic scoring.Methods Benign and malignant breast nodules were studied with ultrasonic scoring and compared with pathologic results.Results The 2D-ultra-sontic scoring and total ultrasontic scores of benign breast nodular lesions had significant difference compared to malignant breast nodular lesions (P<0.01).Ultrasontic scores of malignant breast nodular lesions were higher than those of benign breast nodular lesions (P<0.01).According to the ROC curve and Youden index,2D-ultrasonic scores ≥11 could be considered as the critical point for the diagnosis of malignant breast nodular lesions,the total ultrasonic scores ≥12 could be considered as the critical point for diagnosis of malignant breast nodular lesions.Conclusion Ultrasonic scoring for breast nodular lesions may be useful for improving the diagnosis accuracy of the benign and malignant breast nodular lesions.

Objective To investigate the relationship between LUTS and degree,type of prostate histological inflammation in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods From October 2013 to June 2016, 150 patients with BPH(62 -82 years old)were treated with selective TURP.After operation,the pathology examina-tion was practised.According to the international prostatitis histological classification standard,the patients were divid-ed into group A(without inflammation,18 cases),group B(inflammation around gland,45 cases),group C(gland inflammation,33 cases)and group D(mixed inflammation group,54 cases).There were no statistically significant differences among the 4 groups in age,course of disease,number of urinary retention and prostate volume(all P >0.05).The IPSS score before and 2 months after operation and the correlation between the IPSS and degree,type of histological inflammation were observed.Results In group A and C,the preoperative IPSS score and IPSS score at 2 months after surgery were (17.20 ±11.14)points,(8.45 ±5.14)points and (18.05 ±13.11)points,(9.85 ± 5.25)points respectively,there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups(t =0.485,1.294, all P >0.05).There were no statistically significant differences between group B[(22.55 ±11.85)points,(13.24 ± 6.46)points]and group D[(21.45 ±10.35)points,(12.36 ±6.04)points](t =0.824,1.436,all P >0.05).The group B had statistically significant differences compared with group A and group C (t =2.689,5.016,3.642,4.382, all P <0.05).The group D also had statistically significant differences compared with group A and group C (t =2.786,4.672,6.415,5.106,all P <0.05 ).There was positive correlation between the IPSS score before and 2 months after operation and the degree of inflammation in group B,D(B:r =0.698,0.795,D:r =0.546,0.485,all P <0.05),but there was no correlation in group C between them(r =0.182,0.170,all P >0.05 ).Conclusion There is a close correlation between LUTS and inflammation around gland in patients with BPH,and the LUTS can aggravate with the increased inflammation around gland and do not relate with the gland inflammation.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of bladder gasification and stasis dispersion in BPH patients with histological prostatitis after TUEP about IPSS /Qol score.Methods 126 BPH patients with histological prostatitis after TURP were divided into group A,B and C of equal number,and received oral placebo,tamsulosin,and herbal decoction a week after operation,respectively,for a course of 4 weeks.IPSS and Qol score were evaluated. Results After 5 weeks,121 cases finished the follow -up,the unfinished were 2 cases in group A,2 cases in group B and 1 cases in group C.The differences of the IPSS total scores,irritative subscore,obstructive subscore,quality of life score in group C(7.16 ±3.37)points,(4.22 ±2.70)points,(2.94 ±2.06)points,(1.47 ±1.44)points were statis-tically significant than those in group A[(13.77 ±4.50)points,(7.48 ±3.50)points,(6.29 ±2.63)points,(2.83 ± 1.72)points]and group B [(12.77 ±5.24)points,(8.05 ±3.88)points,(4.72 ±3.24)points,(3.07 ± 1.67)points](t =2.692,3.544,3.296,2.698 and t =2.326,3.532,2.418,2.414;all P <0.05).There was only obstructive subscore in group B better than that in group A(t =2.572,P <0.05).Conclusion Bladder gasification and stasis dispersion is effective for the treatment of BPH patients with histological prostatitis after TUEP about IPSS and Qol score.The clinical effect is indeed and satisfactory.

Objective To study the diagnostic utility of hemoglobin electrophoresis in neonatal cord blood screening for thalassemia. Methods Between January 2012 and December 2013, 14032 core blood samples which were from different 21 Women and Children Hospitals in Guangdong were performed for the neonatal screening with hemoglobin electrophoresis. The positive samples of hemoglobin electrophoresis were recalled for genetic testing. Results Out of 1445 (11.07%) positive samples of hemoglobin electrophoresis , 1075 (54.08%) cases were suspected for α-thalassemia, 478 (3.41%) cases were suspected for β-thalassemia, 127 (0.91%) cases were suspected for abnormal hemoglobin. With the genetic testing, 967 cases were diagnosed as α-thalassemia, 404 cases were diagnosed asβ-thalassemia. The coincidence rate ofα-thalassemia andβ-thalassemia were 89.95%and 82.96%, respectively. Besides, 124 cases were diagnosed as abnormal hemoglobin, including 38 cases of Hb E, 28 cases of Hb Q, 21 cases of Hb D, 19 cases of Hb New York, 13 cases of Hb J, and 5 cases of Hb J. Conclusion Hemoglobin electrophoresis was definitely helpful in the neonatal cord blood screening for thalassemia and abnormal hemoglobin.

Objective To establish a diabetic rat model of hindlimb ischemia, and provide a test method for dia-betic limb ischemia and diabetic foot study.Methods Twenty-five Wistar rats were divided into three groups:the model group and control group ( n=10) , and sham operated group ( n=5) .The rats of model group were induced by intraperito-neal injection of streptozotocin ( STZ, 60 mg/kg) , with the blood glucose level over 16.8 mmol/L, while the rats of control group were injected with normal saline.All the rats had the left femoral artery and its branches ligated, and then Doppler scan blood flow analysis was performed for the two hind limbs after operation at different time points.In the meantime, the changes of body weight and blood glucose were observed.The animals were sacrificed at 21days after operation.HE stai-ning was used to observe the pathological changes of gastrocnemius and femoral arteries.Capillary density and intima hyper-plasia were examined using immunostaining for CD31 and a-SMA.Results Blood glucose of the model group rats was sig-nificantly increased as well as the quantity of urine and feces,and associated with weight loss, which were maintained for more than 21 days.The blood flow of control rats was markedly decreased immediatly after operation, reached to the lowest point after surgery, and recovered from 7 -14 days after operation.In contrast to the control group, the model group showed a marked reduction in blood flow in the ischemic hind limb.Pathological examination revealed remarkable vascular atrophy and a significantly reduced number of vessels per high power field in the gastrocnemius muscle of model group rats with respect to the control group, and the femoral arteries of model rats were more narrowed than that of the control rats. Conclusions In this study, an effective, convenient diabetic rat model of hindlimb ischemia is successfully established which will facilitate the studies of drug intervention for diabetic limb ischemia and diabetic foot in the future.

Objective To detect the expression of Raf kinase inhibitor protein (RKIP) and NF-κB in renal tissue of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) rats model,and to investigate the effect of rituximab (RTX) on the expression of RKIP in the renal tissue of DKD rats. Methods SD rats were randomly divided into normal group (N),DKD model group (M) and RTX treatment group (D).Blood glucose and 24-hour urine protein of rats were determined in three groups.RKIP protein and NF-κB protein were determined by immunohistochemistry staining. RKIP protein expression was detected by Western blotting. Results Compared with N group,blood glucose,24-hour urine protein and NF-κB expression in M group increased significantly (all P< 0.01),the expression of RKIP in M group decreased significantly (P<0.05).Compared with M group,the expression of RKIP increased significantly in D group (P<0.05),and 24-hour urine protein and NF-κB expression decreased in D group (all P<0.05).NF-κB protein expression was negatively correlated with RKIP expression in M group. Conclusions The NF-κB pathway regulated by RKIP plays an important role in the development and pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy.Rituximab may have a role in treatment of DKD.
