ObjectiveTo evaluate nipple-areola complex sparing modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer.MethodsClinical data of 159 breast cancer cases undergoing NAC sparing modified radical mastectomy from Jan 1998 to Dec 2009 were retrospectively analyzed.ResultsNAC sparing modified radical mastectomy was successfully carried out in 141 out of the 159 cases ( 88.68％ ).In 14 cases (8. 81％ ) the original operative protocol was changed to modified radical mastectomy or radical mastectomy during the operations because NAC ischemia in 4 (2. 52％ )cases, NAC occult involvement or dysplasia in 5 cases (3. 14％ ), Ⅲ level lymph node metastasis was found in 3 cases (1.89％). Postoperative complete nipple necrosis occurred in 4 (2. 52％ ) cases. Other significant postoperative complications included nipple necrosis in 20 cases ( 12. 58％ ), skin flap necrosis and infection in 11 cases ( 6.92％ ), subcutaneous hydrops in 10 cases (6. 29％ ). All patients got follow-up ranging from 15 to 96 months,median follow-up was 51 months. Local region recurrences were observed in 5 cases (3. 14％ ), distant metastasis in 2 cases ( 1.26％ ). There was no recurrence in the region of NAC.ConclusionsNipple-areola complex sparing modified radical mastectomy is oncologically safe by strict preoperative selection criteria and strict operative procedure.

MethodsFrom Jan 2006 to Dec 2008, 16 patients underwent NAC preseving modified radical mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction with latissimus dorsi fat flap.ResultsAll patients recovered smoothly.No fat flap or back skin necrosis happened.The reconstructed breasts had good apperance with 93.8％ satisfaction rate.During the follow-up of 44 months (ranging from 36 to 60 months), all patients were disease-free.ConclusionsThe operation of NAC preseving modified radical mastectomy and immediate reconstruction with latissimus dorsi fat flap is safe and effective.It can improve the life quality of patients by satisfing the needs of both beauty and tumor resection.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of nipple-areolar complex (NAC) involvement in patients with operable breast carcinoma and to determine the indications and risk factors of NAC-sparing modified radical mastectomy. Methods407 female patients with primary breast cancer were included in the study.Data like tumor position, tumor size, the distance from the tumor to the margin of areolar (D) were recorded.NAC sample in vitro was collected and routine pathological examination was performed.Statistical methods were employed to analyze the relation between the clinicopathological factors and NAC involvement.ResultsThe rate of NAC involvement was 13.27％ (54/407).NAC involvement had no statistically significant correlation with age or histological type, but had statistical correlation with tumor position, D value, tumor size, TNM stage, clinical manifestation of NAC, and status of axillary lymph nodes(P ＜ 0.05).ConclusionsTumor position, D value, tumor size, TNM stage, clinical manifestation of NAC and status of axillary lymph nodes are the major influential factors for NAC involvement.The indications of NAC-sparing modified mastectomy:1.in Ⅰ or Ⅱa TNM stage; 2.patients have strong will to preserve NAC or breast appearance; 3.noncentric tumor (D≥2 cm) ; 4.the maximum diameter of tumor should be less than 3 cm; 5.no abnormal manifestation like nipple discharge, eczematoid change or nipple inversion happened.6.no occult involvement in subareolar tissues was found by frozen pathology.

Objective To explore the rule of central region lymph nodes metastasis in differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) and the significance of central region lymph nodes neck dissection in surgical operation for DTC.Methods The clinical and pathological data of 122 lymph nodes in 109 patients (31 female and 78 male) with DTC undergoing neck lymph nodes ( central region lymph nodes included) dissection from Jan.2003 to Jun.2007 in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively.According to preoperative physical examination and imaging analysis,patients were divided into clinical cervical lymph nodes metastasis ( cN + ) group and clinical no cervical lymph nodes metastasis (cNO) group and compared respectively with their pathological data after surgery.Resuits Of the 122 lymph nodes,lymph node metastasis rate was significantly higher in region Ⅵ than in region Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ.The difference had statistical significance (P ＜0.01 ).65.6％ (80/122) metastasis was in the central region.81.2％ (56/69) patients in cN + group and 45.3％ (24/53) patients in cN0 group had central region lymph nodes metastasis.Conclusions Central region lymph nodes metastasis is common for patients with DTC.Routine neck dissection in central region should be done in DTC operation.

Objective To investigate the exposure and protection of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) in the reoperation for thyroid diseases.Methods Clinical data of 214 cases undergoing thyroid reoperation were retrospectively analyzed.The patients with a short interval between the 2 thyroid operations or with external-infiltrated thyroid cancer were approached at the lateral strap muscles and the leading edge of the sternocleidomastoid.RLNs were exposed in the lateral region of superior mediastinum tracheoesophageal groove or at the point where RLN enters to throat.RLNs of patients with lymph node metastasis were exposed beside the enlarged lymph nodes.The patients with a long interval between the 2 thyroid operations and with benign tumor or tumor without external infiltration were exposed their thyroids at the anterior midline and then RLNs were exposed at the posterior lateral of the middle thyroid veins or at the inferior thyroid artery.Results Among the 214 cases,344 RLNs were anatomically exposed including 188 right and 156 left.84 cases had single exposure and 130 cases had bilateral exposure.44 RLNs were exposed at the point where RLN enters to throat,104 RLNs at the posterior lateral of the middle thyroid veins,40 RLNs at the inferior thyroid artery,124 RLNs at the lateral region of superior mediastinum tracheoesophageal groove,and 32 RLNs beside the enlarged lymph nodes.For the 2 cases suffering hoarse voice the day after they underwent thyroid operation in other hospital,suture ligation at the the entrance point was found when they received the reoperation in our hospital.Three of the total 344 RLNs (0.87％ ) had RLN branch injury in the entire group.Conclusion It is possible to reduce RLN injury during the reoperation for thyroid disease if surgeons are familiar with the dissection of RLN under normal or pathological condition,avoid adhesive or scar tissues,and select the appropriate anatomic approach.

Objective: To understand the social adaptation in the association between attitude towards parents with academic anxiety among middle school students in Chongqing, so as to provide a basis and thinking method for theoretical framework of family education and youth development. Methods: Convenient and clustering sampling method was used to select 34 097 middle school students aged 13-18 years during September to November 2023. All the participants were investigated with self designed questionnaire, Social Adaptability Scale and Mental Health Test. The mediating effect of social adaptability in the relationship between students attitudes towards their parents academic anxiety was evaluated by using Logistic regression analysis and structural equation model. Results: The proportion of high school students in Chongqing with academic anxiety was 48.80%. Academic anxiety differed significantly by sex, academic grade, attitude towards parents, and social adaptability ( χ 2=948.45, 173.92, 537.51, 4 770.04, P < 0.01). The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that positive attitudes towards parents were positively correlated with moderate academic anxiety ( OR=1.13, 95%CI =1.08-1.18) and high academic anxiety ( OR=1.14, 95%CI =1.09-1.19) ( P < 0.05 ). The results of the mediation effect analysis showed that positive attitude of middle school students towards their parents negatively predicted academic anxiety ( β= -0.12 , P <0.01), but when social adaptation ability was used as a control variable, the original negative relationship between the positive attitude towards parents and academic anxiety of middle school students changed ( β=0.02, P <0.01), and social adaptation ability played a masking effect in the relationship. The social adaptation ability of middle school students played a mediating role in the relationship between their positive attitudes towards their parents and academic anxiety, with a mediating effect of -0.63. Conclusions The attitude of middle school students towards their parents will directly affect academic anxiety, and also have an indirect impact on academic anxiety through social adaptability, but there is a cover effect. Pay more attention to family education and actively focus on students social adaptability can contribute to improve the mental health level of adolescents.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of multipoint core needle biopsy (CNB) at mid-stage to predict the treatment effect of neoadjuvant systemic therapy for breast cancer.Methods:A total of 67 breast cancer cases with indications of neoadjuvant systemic therapy were selected from Mar. 2021 to Nov. 2022.In the fourth cycle of neoadjuvant systemic therapy, core needle biopsy was performed at 3, 6, 9, 12 points of tumor bed and residual tumor foci of breast respectively.The results of CNB were compared with the results of routine pathology of surgery after the completion of neoadjuvant therapy. Matched biopsy and surgical specimens were compared to assess pCR. The accuracy and false negative rate (FNR) of interim pathological assessment were analyzed. The coincidence probability of interim biopsy pathology and pathology of standard surgical excision was verified.Results:The median age of enrolled patients was 49.2 years (21-69 years) .Median maximum tumor diameter before neoadjuvant systemic therapy and residual tumor diameter after neoadjuvant therapy were 40.4 mm (range 21-93mm) and 19.6 mm (range 0-41mm) respectively. A total of 28 patients achieved pCR, and the PCR rates of hormone receptor-positive and HER2-nagative,triple-negative,hormone receptor negative and HER2-positive and hormone receptor-positive and HER2-positive disease were 4/24 (16.7%) ,6/14 (42.9%) ,11/18 (61.1%) ,7/11 (63.6%), respectively. Two cases had no preoperative imaging abnormalities. The results of core needle biopsy pathology of residual tumor lesions in 55 patients were consistent with those of routine post-operation pathology.The results of core needle biopsy pathology of tumor bed of 56 patients was consistent with the routine pathology of surgery. The false negative rate of interim multipoint biopsy pathology of residual tumor foci was 17.9% (12/67). The false negative rate of tumor bed with core needle biopsy was 5.9% (4/67) .Conclusions:CNB guided under ultrasound is feasible in predicting tumor retreat situation in the tumor bed area and residual tumor foci at mid-stage of neoadjuvant therapy. Increasing the number of core needles and improving biopsy techniques may improve the accuracy of pathological evaluation of interim multipoint biopsy.

【Objective】  To study the composition and function of tongue coating (TC) and gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microbiota in participants with yellow-greasy tongue coating (YGTC), and to explore the representative metabolite markers and pathways in this group. 【Methods】  Subjects with YGTC or thin-white tongue coating (TWTC) were recruited from December 1, 2021 to October 30, 2022, and the TC and fecal samples were collected. Samples were subjected to both whole-genome shotgun (WGS), and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The α-diversity analysis, principal component analysis (PCA), and Spearman correlation analysis were performed for two groups. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography combined with tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC–MS/MS) analysis was used to analyze metabolomics and enrichment of metabolic pathways. 【Results】  The results revealed 20 YGTC participates and 19 TWTC participates. At the genus level, the dominant bacterial species of TC flora and intestinal flora in the two groups were roughly the same, but the relative kurtosis difference was marked, and the abundance of potentially pathogenic bacteria in TC and fecal samples of YGTC subjects was higher. There were 9 down-regulated microorganisms in the TC samples, 26 down-regulated microorganisms, and 6 up-regulated microorganisms in YGTC subjects. The α-diversity analysis indicated that the Chao and abundance-based coverage estimator (ACE) indices of TC bacteria in the YGTC subjects showed a decreasing trend, but the difference was not statistically significant (P > 0.05). The α-diversity of fecal samples and the Chao and ACE indices decreased significantly (P < 0.05). PCA showed that the microflora structure of TC and fecal samples were significantly different between the two groups. Spearman correlation analysis showed that there was no correlation between TC and fecal microorganisms at phyla and genus levels in the same subjects (P > 0.05). The metabolomics results demonstrated that fumarate reductase, V/A ATPase, and phosphatidylethanolamine were increased, and glycerate-3p, UDP-glucose, and quinone oxidoreductase metabolites were decreased in YGTC TC samples. Inosine monophosphate (IMP), uridine monophosphate (UMP), and gamma-aminobutyric acid(GABA) were increased in YGTC fecal samples, while the contents of ribo-5P, histidine, biotin,and cobalamin were decreased. Metabolic pathway analysis indicated that the abundance of the TC and fecal samples of the YGTC subjects was relatively low in various metabolic pathways, including amino acid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, nitrogen metabolism, and energy metabolism. 【Conclusion】  Structural and functional changes in TC and GIT microbiota or metabolite markers could be potential biological bases of YGTC formation.
