Objective To evaluate the diagnostic procedures and treatment choice of primary malignant tumor of the duodenum.Methods The clinical data of 54 cases with primary malignant tumor of the duodenum at Peking University People's Hospital from 1995 to 2005 were analyzed retrospectively.Resuits Tumors located in the first,second,third and fourth parts in 6 cases(10%),44 cases(82%),2 cases(4%),and 2 cases(4%)respectively,and among them,tumors within papillary area accounted for 86%(38 cases)of all cases.Fifty cases(92%)were of adenocarcinoma,2 cases(4%)of mucinous adenoearcinoma carcinoid and undifferentiated carcinoma for 1 case each(2%)respectively.The main clinical presentations included jaundice,upper abdominal pain,weight loss,abdominal distention,nausea and vomiting.gastrointestinal obstruction and abdominal mass.The accuracy rate of duodenoscopy and ERCP in preoperative diagnosis was 94%,and 78%respectively.Preoperative associated cholecystopathy accounted for 37%.Panceaticoduodenectomy was performed in 38 cases,duodenectonmy in 1 ease,palliative resection of tumor in 9 cases,and tumor was inoperable in 6 cases.Resection rate was 89%,and radical resection rate was 72%.The postoperative 3-and 5-year survival rate was 41%and 22%respectively.Patients after palliative resection died from 3 months to 24 months and all patients who did not undergo a surgery died within 6 months.Conclusions Tumors located in papillary region account for the majority of primary malignant tumors of the duodenum and are mainly of adenocarcinoma.Specific signs on abdominal examination are few.The symptoms of advanced stage are complicated,associated cholecystopathy is relatively frequent.Endoscopy and ERCP examination are the main diagnostic tools.the pancreatoduodenectomy is the first choice of therapy for patients with primary duodenal carcinoma.

Objective To determine the relationship between excess iodine and the thyroid diseases. Methods The effects of excess iodine on rat thyroid and human thyroid cell were observed . Results All the rats in the experimmental group had diffuse colloidal goiter.With the increase of iodine levels,the relative and absolute weight of the goiter increased and revealed atypical abnormal hyperplasia as compared with the control group. The heights of thyroid follicular epithelial cells were decreased and the areas of thyroid follicular spaces were enlarged(p

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic procedures and treatment choice of primary malignant tumor of the duodenum.Methods The clinical data of 170 cases with primary malignant tumor of the duodenum at Peking University People's Hospital from 1996 to 2015 were analyzed retrospectively.Results Tumors located in the first,second,third and fourth parts in 14 cases (8.2％),144 cases (84.7％),9 cases (5.3％),and 3 cases (1.8％) respectively,and among them,tumors within papillary area accounted for 62.4％ (106 cases).The main clinical presentations included jaundice,upper abdominal pain,abdominal distention,nausea and vomiting.Among the 170 cases,125 cases obtained accurate tumor stages,with 34 cases on stage Ⅰ (27.2％),45 cases on stage Ⅱ (36.0％),30 cases on stage Ⅲ (24.0％),16 cases on stage Ⅳ (12.8％).The accuracy rate of ultrasound and CT in preoperative diagnosis was 27.6％,and 72.3％ respectively.The pathological type of 144 cases (84.7％) was adenocarcinoma.The postoperative 1-,3-and 5-year survival rate was 69.1％,48.6％ and 33.9％.Conclusions Most primary malignant duodenal tumors are located in papillary region,necessitating radical pancreaticoduodenecomy,early diagnosis remains the key for longterm survival.

Objective To determine the expression of myosin heavy chain 9 (MYH9) in colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues and its clinical significance.Methods Immunohistochemistry and tissue-array were used to determine MYH9 expression in human colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues and matched adjacent tissues.A statistical analysis was performed to establish the potential correlation between MYH9 expression and the patients' clinicopathological characteristics,tumor progression,and prognosis.Results MYH9 is up-regulated in colorectal adenocarcinoma tissues compared with matched adjacent tissues (P =0.000),and it was shown that MYH9 expression is significantly correlated with age (P =0.050),clinical stage (P =0.000),lymph node (P=0.010) and distant (P =0.000) metastasis,but not with sex,primary sites,grade,infiltration,clinical stage (all P ＞ 0.05);it was also shown that MYH9 expression had a significant influence on prognosis (x2 =20.437,P =0.000).Multivariate analyses showed that high MYH9 expression is an independent poor prognostic factor for overall survival (P =0.013).Conclusions The up-regulation of MYH9 in colorectal adenocarcinoma closely correlates with age,clinical tumor stage,metastasis and patient's survival.

DNA was extracted from thyroid nodular tissue in 16 patients with toxic multinodular goitor (TMG). After PCR, the product of PCR was sequenced, and 3 cases with point mutation (A1964T) and 2 cases with insertion mutation (a G was inserted after nucleotide 1928) in TSH receptor gene were found. It is postulated that these mutations may play an important role in the pathogenesis of TMG.

Objective To determine the expression of G-protein coupled receptor 34 (GPR34) in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues.Methods Immunohistochemistry and tissue-array were used to determine GPR34 expression in human hepatocellular carcinoma tissues and matched adjacent tissues.A statistical analysis was performed to establish the potential correlation between GPR34 expression and the patients'clinicopathological characteristics,tumor progression,and prognosis.Results GPR34 is up-regulated in primary hepatocellular carcinoma tissues compared with matched adjacent tissues (P =0.003),and it was shown that GPR34 expression is significantly correlated with tumor size (P =0.024),small hepatocellular carcinoma(0.030) and infiltration(P =0.012),but not with sex,age,grade,chnical stage (all P ＞0.05) ; it was also shown that GPR34 expression had a significant influence on prognosis (X2 =5.617,P=0.018).Multivariate analyses showed that high GPR34 expression is an independent poor prognostic factor for overall survival (P =0.037).Conclusions The up-regulation of GPR34 acts as an potential prooncogene in the development and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma.GPR34 may be a useful diagnostic or prognostic molecular biomarker,and a potential target for therapeutic intervention.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of microwave ablation in combination with TACE for the treatment of primary liver carcinoma (PLC). Methods From Jan. 2004 to Dec. 2008, 63 PLC patients underwent ultrasound-guided microwave ablation (percutaneous or open) under general anesthesia. Repeated microwave ablation or TACE was used when an incompleted ablation or recurrence was found during postoperative regular follow-up. Results These 63 PLC patients have received a total of 82 sessions of microwave ablation procedure (1 to 5 sessions for each patient). There were 2 early postoperative deaths with a procedure-related mortality of 3.2%. At the end of the follow-up, 22 patients were alive and 38 died,and the other one was lost to follow-up. The survival rates in 1,2 and 3 years were 63.3%,42.1% and 26.5%, respectively, with a median survival of 20 months for all patients. The survival for PLC patients with early stage (TNM Ⅰ and Ⅱ) was significantly longer than that of advanced stage (TNM Ⅲ and Ⅳ). The 1,2 and 3 year's cumulative survival rate was 93.3%,86.7% and 65.0% respectively in those 15 cases with only single tumor and the diameter≤3 cm, which were significantly longer than that of other PLC patients. Of 23 patients with recurrence,9 had solitary tumor without lymphnode and distal metastases, for which the survival rates in 1,2 and 3 years were 100%,88.9%, and 35.6%, respectively, whereas in other recurrent patients the survival rates in 1,2 and 3 years were 21.4%, 10.7% and 0%, respectively(P< 0.01). Conclusions Ultrasound-guided microwave ablation in combination with TACE is effective for PLC patients with early stage. In recurrent PLC patients after ablation therapy with solitary tumor and no lymphnode and distal metastases the survival is significantly longer than that of the others.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of PHPT in elderly patients, as well as the safety and effectiveness of surgical treatment.Methods:179 patients with PHPT treated from Jan. 2000 to Dec. 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. They were divided into elderly group ( n=51) and non-elderly group ( n=128) according to whether they were over 60 years old at the time of operation. The clinical data of symptoms, complications, preoperative and postoperative blood calcium, phosphorus, ALP, PTH, surgical cure rate and complication rate of the two groups were analyzed retrospectively. T-test was used for measurement data comparison. χ2 test was used for enumeration data comparison and single factor analysis. Logistic regression analysis (forward method) was used for multivariate analysis. Results:The proportion of non-specific symptoms in the elderly group, including fatigue, dizziness, loss of appetite, memory decline, was higher than that in the non-elderly group (21.6% vs 8.6%, P=0.019) . Elderly patients had lower blood ALP level[ (163.4±229.8) U/L vs (325.9±449.2) U/L, P=0.016], higher proportion of preoperative hypertension (47.1% vs 21.1%, P=0.001) , diabetes (31.4% vs 10.9%, P=0.001) , coronary heart disease (13.7% vs 3.1%, P=0.013) and tumor (13.7% vs 3.9%, P=0.025) . High proportion of non-specific symptoms was related to higher blood calcium [ OR=4.936 (95% CI 1.126-21.637) , P=0.034] and lower blood phosphorus[ OR=0.011 (95% CI 0.000-0.650) , P=0.030]. Between the two groups there was no significant difference in cure rate (94.1% vs 96.1%, P=0.564) or complication rate (27.5% vs 44.5%, P=0.127) . Conclusions:The surgical treatment of elderly patients with PHPT also has high effectiveness and safety. More attention should be paid to surgical diagnosis and treatment of elderly patients.

Objective: To understand the current situation of suicidal ideation among middle school students in Taiyuan City and its correlation with exposure to social ecological risk factors, so as to provide a reference basis for exploring the causes of suicidal ideation among middle and high school students and formulating effective preventive measures. Methods: A questionnaire survey was conducted among 2 639 middle school students in urban and rural areas of Taiyuan City by multistage stratified random cluster sampling, including general demography characteristics, social ecological risk factors and suicidal ideation. SPSS 26.0 software was used for Chi squared test and binary Logistic regression analysis. Results: The overall detection rate of suicidal ideation was 24.7 %. There were statistically significant differences in the detection rate of suicidal ideation among middle school students in different gender, grade, family residence, maternal education level, perceived family economic conditions, number of close friends, self-perceived academic burden ( χ 2=38.17, 13.44, 10.77, 8.15, 19.76, 18.95, 59.75, P <0.05). After adjusting the general demography characteristics, the binary Logistic regression showed that moderate and high risk in the individual, family and cultural dimension, and high risk in the school dimension of the social ecology were all positively correlated with suicidal ideation among middle school students ( OR=1.38, 2.28, 1.97, 3.28, 1.48, 2.15, 1.71, P <0.05). Conclusion The suicidal ideation among middle school students is related to individuals, families, and schools in the social ecological microsystem, as well as the cultural environment in the macro system. It is necessary to conduct intervention in suicidal ideation at the individual, family, and school levels, meanwhile, strengthening social and cultural construction to reduce the impact of adverse factors on the mental health among adolescents.

Objective: To understand anxiety symptoms among medical college students and their relationship with social ecological risk factors, so as to provide reference for mental health promotion among medical students. Methods: From September to October 2021, a convenient cluster sampling method was used to include 1 274 freshmen to senior students of a medical school in Taiyuan City, and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 and adolescent social ecological risk factors assessment questionnaire were used. Multivariate binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the association between anxiety symptoms and social ecological risk factors among medical students. Results: The overall detection rate of anxiety symptoms among medical students was 16.2%. The rate of anxiety varied significantly by grade (freshman: 19.9%, sophomore: 13.0%, junior: 14.0%, senior: 18.9% ) and number of friends (≤2: 22.8%, 3-5: 14.4%, ≥6: 11.8%) ( χ 2=8.70, 16.34, P <0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that individual, family, school, community, policy, culture, time, and total score in socio ecological risk factors were positively associated with anxiety symptom scores at different levels of risk ( r=0.33, 0.25, 0.32, 0.16, 0.15, 0.16, 0.16, 0.35, P <0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that high risk for personal dimension of the socio ecological risk factors was positively associated with rate of anxiety symptoms among medical students ( OR=3.32, 95%CI =1.66-6.61), and remained positively associated ( OR=2.98, 95%CI =1.49-5.94) after adjusting for grade and number of friends ( P <0.01). Conclusions Exposure to high personal dimensions of socio ecological risk factors increases the risk of developing anxiety symptoms among medical students. A focus should be placed on the personal factors associated with anxiety to promote medical students mental health.
