PurposeTraumatic pancreatitis which has a high mortality rate is likely to be misdiagnosed. This study aims to analyze the clinical manifestations and CT findings of traumatic pancreatitis, so as to improve its early diagnosis and treatment.Materials and Methods The clinical manifestations and CT images of 25 patients with traumatic pancreatitis confirmed by operation or post-treatment review were analyzed retrospectively. Pancreatic injuries were classified as superficial lesions (with the depth of trauma less than 50% of the thickness of pancreas) and deep lesions (with the depth of trauma more than 50% of the thickness of pancreas). The clinical manifestations, CT findings and the complicated organ injuries in these two types of pancreatic trauma were analyzed.Results Eight patients had superficial lesions, and 17 patients were with deep lesions. Nine patients had complicated organ injuries. Patients with deep lesions showed a more severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, rebound tenderness and muscular tension than those patients with superficial lesions. The serum amylases increased in all the patients. Pancreatic-relevant complications including pancreas pseudocyst, pancreatic fluid leakage and peritonitis occurred in 7 patients who accepted a delayed operation. Three out of 8 patients with superficial pancreatic injuries were missed on plain CT scan in the first time. Among 17 patients with deep pancreatic trauma, 12 had incomplete laceration, 5 had complete laceration, and 1 was missed in the first time. The direct CT features of pancreatic trauma were focal abnormal attenuation and/or discontinuity in pancreatic parenchyma.Conclusion The clinical manifestations of patients with traumatic pancreatitis are complicated. The direct CT features of pancreatic trauma include heterogeneous density of pancreatic parenchyma and/or interruption. Trauma's depth is closely related to the main injury of pancreatic duct. It is worth to be aware of the indirect signs such as peripancreatic oozy and other viscera damages.

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1, ALDH1A1 or RALDH1), an enzyme responsible for the oxidation of intracellular aldehydes, was shown to have a function in the early differentiation of stem cells. Its activity shows promising potential as a universal marker for the identification and isolation of normal stem cells and cancer stem cells from multiple sources in a variety of tissue types. Herein, we review the available data reporting the utilization of ALDH1 activity as a means to identify and isolate normal stem cells and cancer stem cells (CSCs), and the potential diagnostic and therapeutic implications, with a special focus on the mammary gland and breast cancer. The research opportunity in this area of interest is emphasized.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and laparoscopic bile duct exploration lithotomy (LBDEL) in treatment of intra/extra-hepatic duct stones. Methods There were 110 patients whose intrahepatic stones located in Ⅰ , Ⅱ hepatic duct and 378 patients whose stones only located in the common bile duct. These patients respectively underwent LBDE combined with choledochoscope laser lithotripsy or ERCP combined with endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) and endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) to remove the stones. Common bile ducts were performed primary suture or T tube placement in the LBDEL cases. The evaluation was carried out for perioperative complications and postoperative recovery of the surgical methods. Results The residual stone rate was 31.82% in 110 cases. The rate was higher in ERCP group (51.06%) than that in LBDEL group (17.46%) (P < 0.05). Postoperative recovery was better in LBDEL group than that in ERCP group. The residual stone rate was 8.20% in 378 cases. The rate was lower in ERCP group (3.68%) than that in LBDEL group(11.63%) (P < 0.05). Between the two groups, there had no statistical significance in postoperative recovery. The incidences of bile leakage and pulmonary infection were higher in LBDEL group than in ERCP group. The incidences of abdominal cavity infection, acute pancreatitis, digestive tract perforation and gastrointestinal bleeding were higher in ERCP group than that in LBDEL group. 2 of the 378 patients occurred death were happened digestive tract perforation which were induced during ERCP procedure. Conclusion LBDEL and ERCP demonstrated the same therapeutic effects in the treatment of common bile duct stones. However, ERCP has no large advantages in the treatment of hepatolithiasis, and shows higher complication rates. LBDEL has a significant curative effect for intra-and extrahepatic bile duct calculi and can maintain the integrity of Oddi sphincter. This technology is easy to spread to the basic-level hospital to benefit the majority of patients.

Objective: To study status of social support and its influencing factors in female migrant workers. Methods: Study participants were selected with a random cluster design from participants 16-60 years old in non-registered residents from 10 districts in one city. Social support revalued scale and general questionnaire were used to survey social support status of female migrant workers in August-December of 2016. Results: There was statistic difference in social support among different districts, occupations, and income of female migrant workers (P<0.05) . Results of multiple linear regression demonstrates that districts, occupations, and income of female migrant workers were associated with social support scale (district standarized β=0.03, occupations standarized β=-0.03, incorue standarized β=0.10, P<0.05) . Conclusion We should be attentive to self-employed and Low-income participants among female migrant workers.

Objective: To investigate the mental health status of female migrant workers in a city. Methods: From August to December, 2016, cluster random sampling was used to select female migrant workers aged 16-60 years from 10 districts of this city, and Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) and a questionnaire on general status were used. Results: Among these female migrant workers, the detection rates of obsessive-compulsion, hostility, and depression were 6.62%, 4.18%, and 4.10%, respectively. There was a significant difference in the detection rate of mental health issues between the female migrant workers from different districts, with different occupations, or with different education levels (P<0.05) . Districts, occupation, and education level were associated with mental health issues, after adjustment for age (P<0.05) . Conclusion Although female migrant workers in this city have a high mental health level, the issues such as obsessive-compulsion, hostility, and depression should be taken seriously. Targeted mental health surveys and comprehensive interventions should be implemented to improve the mental health level of female migrant workers.

Cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) is a membrane glycoprotein receptor capable of binding and transporting fatty acid. Nogo-B regulates the metabolism of fatty acids in the liver and affects the development of liver cancer. To date, it remains unclear whether the interaction between CD36 and Nogo-B affects the proliferation and migration of breast cancer cells. In the current study, we aimed to determine whether the interference of CD36 and Nogo-B affects the proliferation and migration of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells. The results showed that inhibition of CD36 or Nogo-B alone can inhibit the proliferation and migration of TNBC cells, and the inhibitory effect was more pronounced when CD36 and Nogo-B were inhibited simultaneously. Meanwhile, it was found that inhibition of CD36 and Nogo-B expression can inhibit the expression of Vimentin, B-cell lympoma-2 (BCL2) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). In vivo, knockdown of CD36 or Nogo-B in E0771 cells reduced its tumorigenic ability, which was further enhanced by knockdown of CD36 and Nogo-B simultaneously. Mechanistically, inhibition of CD36 and Nogo-B expression can decrease fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) and fatty acid transport protein 4 (FATP4) expression. Moreover, overexpression of CD36 and Nogo-B-induced cell proliferation was attenuated by FABP4 siRNA, indicating that inhibition of CD36 and Nogo-B expression could inhibit the absorption and transport of fatty acids, thereby inhibiting the proliferation and migration of TNBC. Furthermore, inhibition of CD36 and Nogo-B expression activated the P53-P21-Rb signaling pathway which contributed to the CD36 and Nogo-B-inhibited proliferation and migration of TNBC. Taken together, the results suggest that inhibition of CD36 and Nogo-B can reduce the proliferation and migration of TNBC, which provides new targets for the development of drugs against TNBC.
