AIM:To investigate the perfusion parameters using dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging ( DCE-MRI) in rectal cancer patients so as to explore its potential value in estimating the microvascular condition including perfusion and permeability .METHODS:The data of 38 rectal cancer patients examined with DCE-MRI was ret-rospectively analyzed .The perfusion parameters of carcinoma and normal rectal wall in each case were calculated , inclu-ding volume transfer constant (Ktrans), rate constant of back flux (Kep), extravascular extracellular space fractional volume (Ve) and initial area under curve (iAUC).The mean values of tumor and normal rectal wall , mucinous and nonmucinous carcinoma, poorly and moderately-to-well differentiated carcinoma , case with or without lymph node metastasis were com-pared.RESULTS:All the parameters of rectal cancer were higher than normal rectal wall (P<0.01).No significant difference was found between poorly and moderately-to-well differentiated carcinoma in terms of K trans, Kep and Ve, neither was the case with or without lymph node metastasis .The cases with lymph node metastasis had lower iAUC than those with-out (P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Quantitative perfusion DCE-MRI answered the microvascular perfusion and permeability change of rectal cancer compared with normal rectal wall , besides it could be used to distinguish between mucinous and nonmucinous carcinoma , which demonstrated its value in the evaluation of rectal cancer .However , it should not be recom-mended to predict the degrees of tumor cell differentiation and lymph node metastasis just according to the perfusion param -eters.

Objective To explore the sensitivity and specificity of colposcopy directed biopsy (CDB) and the value of loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) for the diagnosis and treatment of microinvasive cervical cancer (MCC). Methods One hundred and thirty five patients with MCC were diagnosed with LEEP in Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Fudan University from April 2008 to November 2010, and were retrospectively analyzed on CDB diagnoses and following treatment after LEEP. According to patient′s desire for preservation of fertility and cone margin status, following strategies after LEEP included follow-up, second LEEP, hysterectomy, modified radical hysterectomy and radical hysterectomy. Single and multiple factors related to residual lesions after LEEP were analysed with Pearson Chi-square test and logistic regression model, respectively. Results CDB diagnosed MCC with a sensitivity of 4.4%(6/135), specificity of 100.0%(4 680/4 680), and false negative rate of 95.6%(129/135). Among the 135 patients, 29 did not receive further treatment in our hospital and lost contact. One hundred and six patients had secondary treatment or follow-up in our hospital, 4 of among which were closely followed up;one hundred and two received further treatment, which included 6 cases with second LEEP (3 received extrafascial hysterectomy after repeat LEEP), 59 cases hysterectomy, 14 cases modified radical hysterectomy and 26 cases radical hysterectomy. For factors related to residual lesions after LEEP, single factor analysis showed that the ratio of residual lesion in patients aged 27-39, 40-49 and 50-65 years were respectively 19.0%(11/58), 15.4%(10/65) and 5/12 (χ2=4.505, P=0.105). Residual lesions occurred in 24.7%(23/93) of patients with positive LEEP margins, which was more than that 7.1%(3/42) of patients with negative LEEP margins (χ2=5.756, P=0.016). The ratio of residual lesions in patients with positive endocervical, ectocervical and deep stromal margins were respectively 29.6%(8/27), 17.1%(7/41)and 30.6%(11/36;χ2=2.275, P=0.321). Residual lesions in patients with or without lymph vascular space invasion (LVSI) were 2/7 and 18.8%(24/128), respectively (χ2=0.412, P=0.521). The ratio of residual lesions in patients with invasion depth of<1 mm was 17.1%(7/41), 1-<3 mm was 19.0%(16/84), and 3-5 mm was 3/10, with no significant difference among three groups (χ2=0.870, P=0.647). Logistic regression analysis showed positive cone margin (OR=5.069, P=0.014) and age (OR=1.080, P=0.024) were the independent risk factors of residual lesions after LEEP conization. Conclusions CDB alone is not adequate for the diagnosis of MCC. For young patients who desire to preserve fertility with a negative cone margin, close follow-up is acceptable. Cone margin status and age are two independent risk factors for residual lesions after LEEP.

Hyperhidrosis is a disease in which excessive sweat is secreted,resulting in an abnormal increase in systemic or local perspiration.In traditional Chinese medicine,hyperhidrosis belongs to the category of sweating disease.It is caused by an imbalance between yin and yang and abnormal excretion of body fluid.Many doctors treat the sweating disease from the perspective of heart,lung,and kidney;in contrast,we discuss the etiology and pathogenesis of hyperhidrosis from the perspective of liver and spleen,explain the significance of harmonizing the liver and spleen to improve the sweating disease,and put forward the key pathogenic factors of stagnation liver qi and spleen deficiency,and disharmony between nutrient qi and defensive qi,and the imbalance between yin and yang are the key pathogenic factor.Most of the clinical treatment start from the liver and spleen.The main treatment principle is based on soothing the liver and relieving depression,invigorating the spleen and nourishing blood,and regulating and harmonizing the nutrient qi and defensive qi,paying attention to the relationship between qi and blood in zangfu organs,invigorating the spleen and replenishing qi to consolidate its foundation,soothing the liver and relieving depression to regulate its qi,and invigorating qi and blood and perspiration.Treatment can be supplemented with Xiaoyao Powder plus-minus,mainly to strengthen liver wood and spleen soil,acquire nourishment,smooth qi,nourish the five zang,reconcile qi and blood,enhance physical strength and peace of mind,ensure sufficient qi to arrest sweating,coordinate the liver and spleen,balance the ascending and descending phases,and harmonize the five zang organs.

BACKGROUND:Exosomes play a role in all stages of wound repair,and there is currently a large body of research on exosomes in skin wound repair,which has been shown to have great potential for clinical applications. OBJECTIVE:To summarize and discuss the main mechanisms and clinical applications of exosomes in the treatment of skin wounds,in order to promote the clinical translation of exosomes. METHODS:PubMed,clinicaltrials.gov,China National Knowledge Infrastructure,Food and Drug Administration database,and Chinese Clinical Trial Register were searched from inception to March 2023.The English search terms were"exosomes,wound healing,stem cells,chronic wound,immunoregulation,inflammation,skin,therapeutic use,isolation,characterization,infections".The Chinese search terms were"exosomes,wound healing,stem cells,immunomodulation,clinical applications".A total of 79 articles were included for the summary. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Exosomes can improve and accelerate wound healing through inflammation regulation,immune protection,angiogenesis,cell proliferation and migration,and collagen remodeling.(2)Exosomes derived from stem cells have mature preparation techniques and related mechanism research,which is currently the mainstream research direction.Non-stem cell-derived exosomes have the advantages of convenience,economy,and easy production,and can be used as a supplement for clinical applications.(3)The clinical application of exosomes is still in its infancy,but has great potential for application.Various exosome modification techniques have laid the foundation for the future development of clinically personalized services and require further research.(4)The clinical translation of exosomes faces many challenges,such as low yield,high heterogeneity,lack of unified standards for isolation,purification,and quality control,and difficulties in storage.
