Objective To discuss the sensitization effect of celecoxib in the radiotherapy and chemotherapy of patients with esophageal cancer,and its clinical application value.Methods According to the digital table,60 patients with esophageal cancer were randomly divided into observation group and control group,30 cases in ecah group.The control group was given conventional radiation and chemotherapy,the observation group received combination with celecoxib for radiotherapy sensitization.The clinical effect was compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate of the observation group was 46.67％ (14/30),which was higher than 20.00％ (6/30) of the control group,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (x2 =4.343,P ＜ 0.05).In the observation group,radioactive pneumonia occurred in 1 case,radioactive esophagitis in 2 cases,radioactive myocarditis in 1 case.In the control group,radioactive pneumonia occurred in 2 cases,radioactive esophagitis in 1 case,radioactive myocarditis in 2 cases,the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (x2 =0.350,0.350,0.350,all P ＞0.05).In the observation group,7 cases occurred nausea and vomiting,diarrhea in 1 case,bone marrow suppression in 5 cases,renal toxicity in 2 cases.In the control group,8 cases had nausea and vomiting,diarrhea happened in 2 cases,bone marrow suppression in 3 cases,renal toxicity in 1 case,there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups (x2 =0.088,0.350,0.576,0.350,all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Application of celecoxib in patients with esophageal cancer during the process of radiation and chemotherapy has sensitization effect,it can promote the esophageal cancer treatment effect,without increase in adverse reactions,it is worthy of popularization and application in clinic.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic impact of lymphovascular invasion (LVI) in patients treated with radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) for upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We collected data from 180 patients who were treated with RNU from 2005 to 2013 at our institution. The Kaplan-Meier method with log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards regression models were used for univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS: LVI was present in 28 patients (15.6%), which was associated with higher pathological tumor stage (p < 0.001), tumor necrosis (p=0.012), lymph node metastasis (p=0.017) and multifocality (p=0.012). On multivariate analysis, LVI was an independent prognostic factor of recurrence-free survival [RFS: hazard ratio (HR)=2.954; 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.539–5.671; p=0.001] and cancer-specific survival (CSS: HR=3.530; 95% CI=1.701–7.325; p=0.001) in all patients. In patients with node-negative UTUC, LVI was also a significant predictor of RFS (HR=3.732; 95% CI 1.866–7.464; p < 0.001) and CSS (HR=3.825; 95% CI=1.777–8.234; p=0.001). CONCLUSION: LVI status was an independent predictor in patients with UTUC who underwent RNU. The estimate of LVI could help physicians identify high-risk patients and make a better medication regimen of adjuvant chemotherapy.

With the development of industrial technology, dust explosion accidents have increased, causing serious losses of people's lives and property. With the development of economy, we should lay further emphasis on causation, prevention, and treatment of dust explosion. This article summarizes the background, mechanism, prevention, and treatment of dust explosion, which may provide some professional knowledge and reference for the treatment of dust explosion.

Objective To compare the surgical effects between minimally invasive anterior ondontoid screw fixation assisted by our self-designed odontoid guider and open anterior ondontoid screw fixation in the treatment of odontoid fractures of Anderson-D'Alonzo type Ⅱ.Methods From July 2011 to July 2016,28 adults with odontoid fracture of Anderson-D'Alonzo type Ⅱ were treated at Department Ⅱ of Spinal Surgery,Hospital of 89 Army Group of Chinese PLA.Of them,15 were treated by minimally invasive anterior ondontoid screw fixation assisted by our self-designed odontoid guider (guider group) while the other 13 by open anterior ondontoid screw fixation (open group).All the patients were male,aged from 31 to 59 years (average,42.7 years).The 2 groups were compared in terms of incision length,operation time,intraoperative bleeding,intraoperative fluoroscopic frequency and hospital stay.Results There were no significant differences between the 2 groups of patients in their preoperative general data,indicating they were compatible (P ＞ 0.05).All the patients were followed up for 12 to 45 months (average,22.1 months).The internal fixation was in good place and clinical union achieved in all the 28 patients.The incision length (2.2 ± 0.1 cm),operation time (45.0 ± 3.1 min),intraoperative bleeding (29.0 ± 2.3 mL) and intraoperative fluoroscopic frequency (15.5 ± 1.9 times) for the guider group were all significantly less than those (2.9 ±0.7 cm,61.6±3.8 min,51.6±3.9 mL and 21.7±3.2 times,respectively) for the open group (P ＜0.05),but there was no significant difference between the 2 groups in hospital stay (6.5 ± 0.5 d versus 6.5 ± 0.6 d) (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion In the treatment of odontoid fractures of Anderson-D'Alonzo type Ⅱ,compared with open anterior ondontoid screw fixation,the minimally invasive anterior ondontoid screw fixation assisted by our self-designed odontoid guider may lead to a smaller incision,shorter operation time,less blood loss and a lower fluoroscopic frequency.

Objective:To investigate the occurrence of inadequate specimens of thyroid nodule fine needle non-aspiration cytology and its possible influencing factors.Methods:Clinical data of 1571 patients with FNAC of 1638 thyroid nodules were analyzed retrospectively, according to whether the FNAC specimen were adequate or not, all cases were divided into adequate group and inadequate group. The related influencing factors on inadequate specimen were analyzed by univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression.Results:Inadequate specimens occurred in 301 of 1638 (18.4%) nodules. Logistic regression analysis showed that the influencing factors of overall specimen adequacy included operator experience ( P=0.00) , nodules size≤0.5 cm ( P=0.00) , eggshell calcification ( P=0.00) , and cystic ( P=0.00) . Excluding the impact of operator experience, the influencing factors of specimen adequacy included nodules size≤0.5 cm ( P=0.00) , eggshell calcification ( P=0.00) , and cystic ( P=0.00) . Conclusions:Operator experience, nodules size≤0.5 cm, cystic, together with eggshell calcification are influencing factors of specimen adequacy of fine needle non-aspiration cytology in thyroid nodules. For experienced operators, what restrict specimen adequacy is the limitation of FNAC technique. For inexperienced operators, what restrict specimen adequacy is operator’s experience.

Reports a case admitted in the Ward I of Department of Surgery of Zhengzhou Renji Hospital in June 2017. A young child who suffered destructive injury of left forearm, wrist and palm with severed 3rd-5th fingers. Tendon and neurovascular repairs of forearm, wrist and palm were performed with pedicled abdomina flap and the 3rd-5th fingers ectopic replantation in Phase I surgery. In the Phase II surgery, the abdomina flap division was carried out. The replantation of severed fingers after ectopic replantation and the reconstruction of foot defect with free anterolateral thigh flap(ALTF) were carried out in Phase III surgery. In Phase IV surgery, fingers functional reconstruction and foot flap thinning were performed. Four years after surgery, the thumb oppositions to middle, ring and little fingers could be completed, with slightly limitations. The appearance and texture of transferred foot flap were good, and the child could walk and run almost normally.
