Objective To compare the clinical and pathological features of Chinese young breast cancer(age ≤ 35)with elder patients(> 35)using Meta analysis .Methods Published studies concerning clinical and pathological features of young breast cancer in China were searched systemically and assessed .Stata12 .0 software was used for data analyzing and calculating OR and its 95%CI .Results Totally 31 studies were selected for Meta analysis ,and most of them were classified as 6 - 7 scores ,which showed the quality of articles was high .The risk factors of breast cancer and its pooled odds ratio values with statistical significance were as fol‐lows 6 .42(95% CI :4 .22 - 9 .79) ,0 .61(95% CI :0 .50 - 0 .74)when clinical staging of 0 - Ⅱ phase or Ⅰ - Ⅱ phase ,2 .25(95% CI :1 .69 - 2 .99)when histological type of Invasive carcinoma ,1 .73(95% CI :1 .23 - 2 .43)when histological grade of III grade ,1 .80 (95% CI :1 .23 - 2 .43)when positive of lymph node metastasis .Conclusion Compared with elder breast cancer ,the clinical and pathological characteristics of young breast cancer were mainly for the high misdiagnosis rate ,the late clinical stage ,the high pro‐portion invasive carcinoma ,the poor histological differentiation and the lymph node metastasising easily ,the hint of young breast cancer screening and treatment may be different principles and measures should be adopted .

To study the link between BRAFV600E status and the expression of BIM gene in papillary thyroid carcinoma( PTC) tissues and to analyze the association of these factors with clinicopathological characteristics. BRAFV600E status was determined by MASA-PCR, and qPCR was applied to detect the expression of BIM gene. Finally, the associations of these factors with clinicopathological characteristics were analysed. The rate of mutant BRAFV600E in PTC was 54. 1% , and the expression of BIM gene was lowered in BRAFV600E positive PTC tissues. Additionally, there was significant association( P < 0. 05) between BRAFV600E positiveness and raised TNM Staging (Ⅲ/ Ⅳ), and lowered BIM expression was significantly associated (P<0. 05) with the tumor size and raised TNM Staging(Ⅲ/ Ⅳ). These findings may help us to know more about the mechanism of PTC and to develop new diagnostic biomarkers or prognostic indicators of PTC.

This article reviews the recent advance in visual function assessments for children with optic pathway glioma, aiming to provide some references for early clinical objective assessment of visual function impairment and clear diagnosis.

Objective To prepare an ultra-porous hydrogel capable of controlled release and investigate the drug loading, releasing, administration route and efficacy with insulin as a model drug. Methods The polymer interpenetrating network method was used to prepare ultra-porous hydrogels (SPH-IPN). Insulin was selected as a model drug to study the drug loading and efficacy. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance carbon spectroscopy were used to investigate the structure of the gel. The swelling ratio and porosity were measured to evaluate the gel performance. Results The drug loading capacity of insulin ultra-porous hydrogel was 3.19%. The insulin-loaded freeze-dried gel exhibited good hypoglycemic effect on diabetic rats in 1−24 hours from the experimental results on rats with subcutaneous implantation. Conclusion The subcutaneously embedded lyophilized insulin ultra-porous hydrogel provided good controlled release efficacy. It maintained stable blood glucose levels within 24 hours.

Objective:To analyze the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and clinicopathological characteristics of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) .Methods:The clinicopathological data of 1025 PTC patients who underwent surgery therapy in Department of Endocrine and Breast surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from Jan. 2016 to Dec. 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. BMI was calculated according to height and weight, and patients were divided into normal weight group (BMI<24 kg/m 2) and overweight and obese group (BMI≥24 kg/m 2) . The differences in clinicopathological characteristics of PTC patients in different BMI groups were compared, and the correlation between BMI and clinicopathological characteristics of PTC patients was studied. In addition, 342 PTC patients who underwent BRAF V600E and TERT gene tests were compared with different BMI groups to explore the relationship between BMI and BRAF V600E and TERT gene mutations. Results:In this research, there were 591 (57.66%) patients in the normal weight group and 434 (42.34%) patients in the overweight and obese group. Univariate analysis showed that BMI was associated with gender, age and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. There were more male gender ( P<0.001) , and age≥55 years ( P<0.001) in overweight and obese groups, and less with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis ( P=0.045) in overweight and obese groups. There was no correlation between BMI and the clinicopathological features of PTC, such as bilaterality, multiformity, tumor size, etc. Otherwise, BMI was a weak protective factor for numbers of lymph node metastasis>5 of PTC ( OR=0.947, CI95%=0.9900-0.997, P=0.037) , and it was not correlated with extra thyroidal extension. There were no significant correlation between BMI and the clinicopathological characteristics of PTC patients of different genders, such as tumor size, bilaterality, extra thyroidal extension, lymph node metastasis, etc. A significant relationship was found between BMI and BRAF V600E mutation in PTC patients ( P=0.044) , while it was not correlated between BMI and TERT mutation ( P=0.516) . Conclusions:Our study suggests that BMI is associated with age, gender, hashimoto’s thyroiditis and BRAF V600E mutation in PTC patients, while there was no significant correlation with the aggressiveness in PTC. More radical treatment for PTC patients who were overweight or obese is not recommended.

Objective:To summarize the experience of personalized treatment of pediatric prepuce trauma.Methods:The clinical data of children with prepuce trauma treated in the Department of Pediatric Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2019 to March 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. First, pediatric prepuce trauma was classified and graded before treatment, and then the treatment plans were developed with the informed consent of the children’s parents. Mild injuries were treated conservatively. In moderate injuries, in situ suture repair and frenuloplasty were performed. In severe injuries, modified circumcision and prepuce flap prepuceplasty were performed. In extremely severe injuries, composite flap (scrotal and mons pubis flap combined with prepuce flap) prepuceplasty was performed. The children were followed up for penile appearance and urinary and erectile function postoperatively.Results:A total of 36 male children, aged 6 months to 10 years, were enrolled in the study. Type of foreskin trauma: 7 cases of foreskin tie injury, 7 cases of inner plate injury, 12 cases of outer plate injury, and 10 cases of combined inner and outer plate injury; degree of foreskin trauma: 9 cases of mild injury, 6 cases of moderate injury, 19 cases of severe injury, and 2 cases of extremely severe injury. 9 of the 36 cases were treated conservatively; 4 cases were treated with in situ suture repair; 5 cases were treated with in situ suture repair + circumcision; 12 cases were treated with modified circumcision; 4 cases were treated with foreskin flap penile circumcision, and composite flaps (scrotal and mons pubis flaps as advancement flap + prepuce flap) were applied in 2 cases. All the children were followed up for 3~6 months. The appearance of the penis and scrotum was good, and the urination and erectile function were normal after treatment. The parents of the children were satisfied with the treatment results.Conclusions:For the treatment of pediatric prepuce trauma, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the location of the prepuce involved and the degree of prepuce injury and adopt an appropriate personalized treatment plan, which can achieve better results.

Traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI) is a common nerve injury in the world, which has a high incidence and disability rate. Intraspinal pressure (ISP) monitoring is performed by placing a pressure sensing probe under the dura of the most severe part of the spinal cord injury after anterior/posterior laminectomy or vertebral body decompression. ISP value is monitored dynamically and objectively in real time by the pressure sensing system. Recent studies have found that ISP monitoring plays an important role in the clinical management and prognosis evaluation of TSCI. The author reviews the recent advance in ISP monitoring in TSCI in order to provide references for the improvement of clinical diagnosis and treatment of TSCI.
