Objective To investigate the clinical significance of narrow-band imaging (NBI) system in the diagnosis and treatment of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) in children. Methods To retrospectively summarize the clinical data of 15 cases diagnosed with PJS, and compare with 70 cases diagnosed with juvenile polyp. And all of the polyps were further diagnosed with pathological examination and the histological type should be analyzed.The polyps of 15 children with PJS were diagnosed with the white light imaging (WLI) and the NBI system, respectively. The pit patterns of various polyps was observed with NBI. We made a comparison between the sensitivity and speciifcity of NBI and WLI in diagnosis of adenomatous polyps. Result 76 lesions in 15 cases were detected by the WLI and NBI system,including adenomatous polyps (12) and harmatoma (64) which were further diagnosed by pathological examinations.By using the NBI system,69.7% (53/76)PJS polyps (pit patterns)were diagnosed as typeⅠand 27.6%(21/76) PJS polyps were diagnosed as typeⅡorⅢ.By using the NBI system,the sensitivity and speciifcity for diagnosing PJS polyps were 83.3%(10/12)and 98.4%(63/64),which were obviously higher than those by using the WLI system (P<0.05). Conclusion Observation of pit patterns of polyps by the NBI system can help predict the pathological changes of PJS polyps.By using the NBI system,the sensitivity and speciifcity of the diagnosis of adenomatous polyps are higher than those by using the WLI system.It has guiding signiifcance to choose the method to remove a polyp.

Objective To examine the feasibility of using the serous-lined tunnel technique for orthotopic neobladder, continent cutaneous diversion and ureteral replacement by the intestinal segment. Methods In 31 patients of orthotopic ileal neobladder, the serous-lined tunnel techniques were used for antirefluxing ureteral implantation: In 13 patients of continent ileal pouch, the techniques were adopted for continent-valve construction and for uretersl implantation: In 3 patients (with lower ureteric cancer), the same techniques were applied for constructing the ileal ureters with a proximal antirefluxing mechanism. Results With a mean follow-up of 27 mon( 12-132 mon), 88 ureters implanted into ileal neobladders or continent pouches functioned well with neither obstruction nor reflux: 12 in 13 continent valves functioned well with no incontinence. 3 patients with ileal ureters showed no ileo-ureteric reflux and had reduced hydronephrosis comparing to that of before surgery.Conclusions Ureteral reimplantation and continent valve formation achieved by adopting the serouslined tunnel technique provide satisfactory results. The versatility of the technique is obvious in the present experience and the creative application of the serous-lined tunnel technique should be possible in urinary reconstruction.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and outcomes of different surgical approaches on the basis of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in treating early-stage vulvar cancer, and discuss the proper strategy for individualized treatment. Methods The medical charts of patients with early-stage vulvar cancer treated in Sun Yat-sen University between January 2004 and December 2013 were retrospectively collected. A total of 74 patients who received sentinel lymph node(SLN)detection in primary surgery were enrolled (average age 55). The surgical approaches contained SLNB, inguinal lymphadenectomy (IL), and extensive vulvectomy. The SLN were examed on intraoperative frozen sections. The treatment protocols, lymphatic metastasis, postoperative recovery condition, recurrence and survival data were collected and analyzed. Results At least one SLN was successfully detected in 68 (92%,68/74) patients. SLN were positive in 21 patients, of whom 12 (group A) underwent bilateral IL, and 9 (group B) received radiotherapy without performed IL. SLN were negative in 47 patients, of whom 26 (group C) underwent bilateral IL and one of them had a non-SLN metastasis, and 21 (group D) were advised to follow-up. The coincidence of pathological results between frozen and paraffin sections was 100%. The sensitivity and specificity of SLNB for diagnosis of lymph node metastasis were 95% and 100%, respectively. A total of 44 complications happened in patients underwent SLNB and IL (group A and C), including 16 poor wound healing, 14 lymphedema, 8 lymphatic fistulas, 3 phlebothrombosis and 3 infections. There were no complications happened in patients underwent SLNB alone (group B and D), among whom the operation time, bleeding amount, and hospital stay were also significantly less than those in patients underwent SLNB and IL. The median follow-up time was 41 months and the 3-year overall survival rate was 85% in the whole series. Recurrences were observed in 11 patients and 9 of them died of the tumor with the median survival time of 15 months. In patients with positive SLN (group A and B), the 3-year overall survival rate was 58% with 8 patients died of the disease, including 4 in group A and 4 in group B. In patients with negative SLN (group C and D), the 3-years overall survival rate was 97% with one patient in group D died of the tumor, and significantly higher than that of patients with positive SLN (P=0.003). The 3-year overall survival rate was significantly difference. In univariate analysis by log-rank test showed that, neither in patients with nor without SLN metastasis the prognosis differed with respect to surgical approaches (group A vs B, P=0.709;group C vs D, P=0.253). Univariate analysis by log-rank test showed that, lymph node metastasis, pathological grade, depth of invasion, and tumor location could significantly affected survival (P<0.05), whereas age, tumor diameter, and surgical approach didn′t (P>0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that lymph node metastasis (RR=21.57, 95%CI:2.68-173.10, P=0.002) and tumor location (RR=7.85, 95%CI:1.79-34.50, P=0.024) were the independent factors for overall survival. Conclusions Lymph node metastasis is an independent prognosis factor for patients with early-stage vulvar cancer. SLNB could accurately diagnose the status of lymph nodes and help to decide subsequent treatment. The omissions of IL in patients with negative SLN avoid surgical morbidity and shorten postoperative recovery period without an increased risk of recurrence.

Objective:To study the protective effect of neoeriocitrin on PC12 cell injury induced by amyloid β protein fragment 25-35 (Aβ 25-35), and explore its role in preventing and treating AD. Methods:The MTT method was used to detect the effect of Neoeriocitrin on the proliferation of normal PC12 cells and Aβ 25-35 damaged PC12 cells, and the intervention concentration of neoeriocitrin solution was screened. The PC12 cells were divided into the normal control group, model group, estradiol group and neoeriocitrin group according to the random number table method. The normal control group and model group were cultured with DMEM for 24 h; DMEM and 1×10 -3 μmol/L estradiol solution were added to the estradiol group; DMEM and 6×10 4 μmol/L neoeriocitrin solution were added to the neoeriocitrin group. After 2 hours of culture, except for the normal control group, the remaining groups were added with 20 μmol/L Aβ 25-35 stock solution, and the culture was continued for 22 h. AnnexinV-FITC/PI double labeling was used to detect apoptosis rate, Western blot method was used to detect estrogen receptor β (estrogen receptor β, ERβ) and p-P38/P38 protein expression. The content of acetylcholine (ACh) was detected, and the activity of Choline acetyl transferase (ChAT) and Acetylcholin esterase (AChE) in the supernatant of PC12 cells were detected. Results:Compared with the model group, the cell apoptosis rate [(8.080 ± 0.578)% vs. (18.500 ± 0.870)%] significantly decreased ( P<0.01), the expression of ERβ protein (0.348 ± 0.042 vs. 0.273 ± 0.006) significantly increased ( P<0.01), p-P38/P38 protein expression (0.372 ± 0.058 vs. 0.571 ± 0.063) significantly decreased ( P<0.01), the content of ACh [(14.319 ± 1.039) μg/mg vs. (9.157 ± 1.605) μg/mg], ChAT activity [(0.715 ± 0.053) U/mg vs. (0.280 ± 0.093) U/mg] significantly increased ( P<0.01), AChE activity [(2.607 ± 2.048) U/mg vs. (6.038 ± 1.867) U/mg] significantly reduced ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Neoeriocitrin can promote the proliferation of PC12 cells damaged by Aβ25-35, inhibit cell apoptosis, and has a certain cytoprotective effect. Its mechanism may be related to the regulation of ERβ expression and inhibition of P38 protein phosphorylation, thereby improving the function of the cholinergic system related.
