120 cases were treated by microlaryngoscopic surgery alone from March to December 1985. Among them, 73 cases were polypoid cord, 28 cases vocal cord nodule, and 19 cases of other conditions. The immediate curative results were good in 114 cases, 5 cases fair and only 1 case was poor. The postoperative complications are: dentes primoris moving in 2 cases and aerodermectasia in 1 case. The operation method is very satisfactory through an endotracheal tube without laryngeal injury. It can accomplish the unsuccessful operation done by mirior, direct and fibrous laryngoscopy surgery. The patients were under general anesthesia by an endotracheal tube without any pain or anxiety and can obtain good relaxation. The authors wish to recommend this technique to treat the related laryngeal disease.

Objective Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing ( PUSH) was published in 1998 by National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel ( NPUAP) as a tool to evaluate the effects of pressure ulcer care.This study aimed to verify the reliability and validity of the Chi-nese version of PUSH in order to provide an efficient and reliable tool for evaluating the effects of pressure ulcer care. Methods Using the Brislin translation model, we translated the English version of PUSH into Chinese and finalized the Chinese version through modifica-tion by an advisory panel, pretests, and verification of its reliability and validity in the care of 126 cases of stage-Ⅱ-Ⅳpressure ulcers. We analyzed the reliability and validity of the scale based on its item scores, content validity, construct validity, Cronbach′s αcoeffi-cient, and test-retest reliability. Results The correlation coefficient value of the total and individual item scores was 0.616-0.963 (P<0.01).Each individual item score was significantly higher in the 27%high-score group (n=35) than in the 27%low-score group (n=36).The total content validity coefficient was 0.965, the correlation coefficient of construct validity between the total and individual item scores was 0.750-0.954 (P<0.01), and that between individual items was 0.666-0.826 (P<0.01), with statistically signifi-cant differences between the total and individual item scores at 7 and 21 days after treatment (P<0.01).The Cronbach′s αreliability coefficient value of the total score was 0.823 and those of individual item scores were 0.770, 0.791, and 0.868, respectively.The inter-rater reliability coefficients were all >0.85 and the test-retest reliabili-ty coefficients of individual items were 0.826, 0.885, and 0.958, re-spectively ( P<0.01) . Conclusion The Chinese version of PUSH, with its high validity and reliability, can be used to evaluate interven-tion effectiveness of Chinese patients with pressure ulcers.

Objective:To evaluate the preoperative localization value of endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle tattooing (EUS-FNT) for laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy in pancreatic lesions with a maximum diameter ≤3 cm.Methods:From November 2017 to October 2022, at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, the data of patients with pancreatic lesions ≤3 cm who underwent laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy were retrospectively analyzed. Eight patients who underwent EUS-FNT assisted laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy were included in the fine needle tattooing (FNT) combined laparoscopic group. And 14 patients who underwent simple laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy were taken as the simple laparoscopic group. The success rate and complications of EUS-FNT were observed. The differences in operation time, surgery-related complications and complete resection rate of lesions between the two groups were compared. Mann-Whitney U test and descriptive analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results:In the FNT combined laparoscopic group, the lesions of 4 cases were located in the pancreatic body and 4 cases in the pancreatic tail. In the simple laparoscopic group, the lesions of 4 cases were located in the pancreatic body and 10 cases in the pancreatic tail. There was a significant difference in lesion size between the two groups (14.5 mm (10.8 mm, 16.5 mm) vs. 27.0 mm (23.5 mm, 30.0 mm), Z=-3.09, P=0.001). In the FNT combined laparoscopic group, EUS-FNT was successfully performed in all 8 patients. The average time of laparoscopy after EUS-FNT was (98.4±8.8) min. The marks were clearly visible under the laparoscopic field of view, and no complications such as abdominal hemorrhage and hematoma were observed. Laparoscopic pancreaticocaudectomy was performed in 5 cases and pancreaticocaudectomy plus splenectomy in 3 cases. The median operation time was 192.5 min (176.3 min, 203.8 min). The amount of intraoperative bleeding was large in 2 patients and blood transfusion was needed. The lesions were one-time completely resected in all 8 patients. The postoperative pathology were 6 cases of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm, 1 case of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN), and 1 case of solid pseudopapilloma. In the simple laparoscopic group, laparoscopic pancreaticocaudectomy was performed in 2 cases and pancreaticocaudectomy plus splenectomy in 12 cases. The median operation time was 202.5 min (192.8 min, 235.0 min), which was longer than that of FNT combined laparoscopic group, but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The amount of intraoperative bleeding was large in 2 patients and blood transfusion was needed. In 1 patient with pancreatic body lesions, no lesion was found in the specimen examination after the first pancreatectomy, and the lesions were completely resected after the second partial pancreatectomy. Active abdominal hemorrhage occurred in 1 patient on the second day after operation, and underwent interventional embolization for hemostasis. Two weeks after surgery, 1 patient was found to have a encapsulated fluid with a long diameter of 6 cm around the pancreas by computed tomography re-examination 2 weeks after surgery. The postoperative pathology were 5 cases of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm, 2 cases of IPMN, 1 case of solid pseudopapilloma, 1 case of pancreatic cyst with glandular low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, 1 case of ectopic spleen, and 4 cases of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Conclusion:EUS-FNT can effectively localize small pancreatic lesions before laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy, shorten the operation time and improve the complete resection rate under laparoscopy.

Background and Objectives:
p21, an important member of the Cip/Kip family, is involved in inhibitory effects of RUNX1b overexpression during the early stage of human hematopoiesis.
Methods:
and Results: We established a human embryonic stem cell (hESC) line with inducible expression of p21 (p21/hESCs). Overexpression of p21 did not influence either mesoderm induction or emergence of CD34+ cells, but it significantly decreased the production of CD43+ cells and changed the expression profile of hematopoiesis-related factors, leading to the negative effects of p21 on hematopoiesis.
Conclusions
In RUNX1b/hESC co-cultures when RUNX1b was induced from D0, perturbation of the cell cycle caused by upregulation of p21 probably prevented the appearance of CD43+ cells, but not CD34+ cells. The mechanisms via which CD34+ cells are blocked by RUNX1b overexpression remain to be elucidated.
