Objective To evaluate the effect of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization using ethanol and iodized-oil emulsion(TACE-EIOE) on prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). Methods Eighteen patients with histologically-proven HCC were underwent TACE-EIOE. The extent of apoptosis was analyzed by terminal deoxynucleotidy transferase-mediated dUTP-digoxigenin nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining. The expressions of Bcl-2, Bax, p53, Ki-67 and PCNA proteins were detected by immunohistochemical method. Changes of these markers, tumor necrosis, encapsulation, volume, cumulative survival were analyzed. Results Complete tumor necrosis was 33.33%(6/18), severe tumor necrosis was 44.44%(8/18), moderate tumor necrosis was 5.56%(1/18), lesser tumor necrosis was 16.67%(3/18). Apoptosis rate was (22.79?3.34)%. Complete encapsulation was 88.89%(16/18). Evident volume-lessening was 66.67% (12/18), partial volume-lessening was 22.22%(4/18),and stable volume was 11.11%(2/18). Ki-67,PCNA, p53, Bcl-2, and Bax were (30.93?18.10)%, (41.16?11.83)%, (53.41?18.13)%, (6.32?2.10)%, and(58.73?17.32)%, respectively. The cumulative 1-, 2-,and 3-year survival rates were 83.33%,72.22%,and 66.67% for patients, respectively. Conclusions The preoperative TACE-EIOE is safe, it might benefit patients with HCC.

Objective To investigate the effect of contrast material flow rate and delayed time on intracranial vascular spiral computed tomographic angiography(SCTA) imaging.Methods 30 patients were selected randomly who planed to do brain contrast enhanced CT examination.In all 30 patients a plane dynamic test scanning at suprasellar cistern level was preformed with 20ml contrast material at a flow rate of 2ml/s,3ml/s and 4ml/s respectively.A time-densty cure was originated from data collected with the software of Time-Lapse.Results The summit time of most intense enhancement of arteriovena was significantly shortened when the flow rate was increased from 2ml/s to 3ml/s or 4ml/s,and the summit time was shortened without satistically difference when the flow rate was increased from 3ml/s to 4ml/s.Conclusions The circulation time test with a little volume contrast material can become a routine procedure of SCTA examination to determine the best delayed time.The suitable flow rate of intracranial vascular SCTA is 3ml/s.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between the tumor encapsulation,lymphocytic infiltration,fibroplasia and cirrhosis and transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE)methods for hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods Histopathological changes were studied in 59 cases of HCCs treated with four kinds of TACE and 58 cases of HCCs treated with surgical resection alone.Results In TACE group the encapsulation,lymphocytic infiltration,fibroplasia was more severe and extensive than that in group of surgical resection alone(Ρ<0.01).The TACE method and treatment time had effect on encapsulation and fibroplasia of tumor,but treatment interval was no effect.The rate of cirrhosis among TACE method had no significantly difference(Ρ>0.05),had relation to TACE time(Ρ<0.05).Conclusion The changes in the encapsulation,lymphocytic infiltration,fibroplasia are more easily find by polytimes,multimaterial chemoembolization than that by one time single material chemoembolization and chemotherapy alone.The superselective cathetering can avoid the damage of normal liver.

Objective To explore the quantitative expression of estrogen receptor(ER),progesterone receptor(PR)in breast hyperplasia and its Clinical significance.Methods The expression of ER and PR was examined by immunohistochemical S-P method and quantitative analysis technique in 20 cases a piece of epithelial hyperplasia of usual type,atypical hyperplasia(mild,moderate,severe)and intraductal carcinoma,which contrasted with 20 cases of usual breast.Results The difference of the expression of ER and PR between usual breast or epithelial hyperplasia of usual type and atypical hyperplasia or intraductal carcinoma was significant(P50%,there was significant difference between moderate dysplasia and mild dysplasia,but no significant difference between moderate dysplasia and severe dysplasia,intraductal carcinoma.Conclusions The abnormal expression of ER and PR may be an early event in the progression of breast carcinoma,it could be used for early diagnosis of breast premalignancy and as a effective mark to monitor the prognosis.

Objective To observe the change of MR perfusion value in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) before and after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). Methods A total of 22 patients with HCC underwent MR perfusion weighted imaging (MR PWI) before TACE and 3-10 days after TACE. The mean time to enhance (MTE), negative enhancement integral (NEI), time to peak (TTP) and maximum slope of decrease (MSD) before and after TACE were acquired and compared. Results The time intension curve (TIC) of HCC region was observed to descend rapidly before TACE, while descended slowly after TACE. The value of MTE and TTP after TACE were lower than those before TACE (P<0.05), and the value of NEI after TACE was higher than that before TACE (P<0.05). The value of MSD after TACE were lower than that before TACE, but no statistical significance was found (P>0.05). Conclusion MR PWI is a very sensitive imaging technique that be used to monitor blood flow changes of HCC before and after TACE and evaluate efficacy of TACE.

Objective:To study the feasibility of using bedside ultrasound in evaluating gastric residual volume in critical ill patients with enteral nutrition support.Methods:From May 2019 to August 2019, 60 patients were selected to receive enteral nutrition via gastric tube in ICU of Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Patients were divided into the experimental group and the control group according to the odd and even number of beds, 30 patients in the experimental group with odd number of beds and 30 patients in the control group with even number of beds. Gastric residual volume was evaluated at 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24 h of enteral nutrition. In the experimental group, the gastric residual volume was evaluated by bedside ultrasound and syringe suction at each time point. In the control group, only bedside ultrasound was used to evaluate gastric residual volume. The results of operation time, monitoring results at different time points, diarrhea and the utilization rate of gastrointestinal motility drugs target feeding time, vomiting, were compared between the two groups.Results:There was no statistical difference between the gastric residual amount monitored by ultrasound and the gastric residual amount monitored by suction ( P>0.05). The operating time of bedside ultrasound monitoring was (62.40 ± 4.00) s, the operating time of suction monitoring was (78.39 ± 12.15) s, and the operating time of bedside ultrasound monitoring was less than that of suction ( t value was 6.633, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the rate of vomiting, diarrhea and gastrointestinal motility drugs between the two groups( P>0.05). The time to reach the target feeding amount in the control group was (3.04 ± 0.31) d, and the time to reach the target feeding amount in the experimental group was (4.19 ± 0.33) d. The time to reach the target feeding amount in the control group was less than that in the experimental group ( t value was 13.42, P<0.01). Conclusions:Bedside ultrasound can be used to evaluate the residual gastric volume of enteral nutrition support patients, guide the implementation of enteral nutrition, shorten the operation time, reduce the workload of nurses, and avoid the contamination of enteral nutrition preparation.
