We present a case of subarachnoid hemorrhage induced by chronic suppurative otitis media and discuss the possible mechanism here. Chronic suppurative otitis media is a common suppurative inflammation of middle ear, which can cause sorts of extracranial and intracranial complications in the situation of lower resistance or higher virulence. However, the condition of subarachnoid haemorrhage caused by chronic suppurative otitis media is quite rare. According to this case and previously published articles, we consider that meningitis may be the main reason of subarachnoid hemorrhage induced by chronic suppurative otitis media.

The understanding of the biological behavior of breast cancer has deepened, hence, local treatments for breast cancer have changed from resection to minimally invasive surgery. For patients with early breast cancer, constructing a minimally invasive interven-tion with low systemic toxicity is a problem, especially for cases involving precancerous lesions. Intraductal therapy for breast cancer, which is performed by inserting reagents through breastfeeding openings using suitable carriers, is a promising, accurate, and minimal-ly invasive method for breast cancer prevention and treatment. The combination of intraductal therapy with new therapeutic strate-gies, such as targeted therapy, endocrine therapy, and immunotherapy, might improve the therapeutic effect. Moreover, the mecha-nisms of intraductal therapy for breast cancer incorporate nanotechnology, molecular imaging, and gene sequencing. Intraductal thera-py is based on clinical and pathologic characteristics of Chinese breast cancer patients, and such characteristics must be determined prior to clinical application. This article mainly discusses the research progress of breast intraductal intervention.

Objective: To investigate the relation between ser um hyaluronic acid (HA) concentration and cryopreservation-reperfusion injury. Methods: The animals were randomly assigned to 3 groups: (1 ) group A: the control; (2) group B: liver allografts were stored in lactated R inger's solution (0℃) for 2 h before implantation; (3) group C:liver allografts were stored in lactated Ringer's solution (0℃) for 4 h before implantation. Th e serum sample and liver specimen were taken up at 2 h and 4 h after transplanta tion to detect the concentration of HA, AST and LDH, and to get pathologic obser vation. Results: Serum HA increased earlier and decreased more s hortly than AST and LDH after transplantation in group A. Serum HA increased sig nificantly in group B and C, much higher than that in group A(P<0.01). The i njury of vascular endothelium and the disorder of hepatic sinuses and hepatic lo b ules were observed in group B and C. In the specimen of 4 h in group C, evident infiltration of inflammatory cell was present. Conclusion: Cryopreservation leads to injury of endothelial cell and reperfusion aggravat es this injury. The serum HA concentration indicates the degree of cold ischemia -reperfusion injury.

Objective The objectives of this study were to investigate the clinical significance of CD39,CD73,double positive subgroups for CD39 and CD73,and other lymphocytes with clinicopathological parameters in the microenvironment of colorectal cancer.Methods Tumor infiltrating lymphocyte(TIL)was collected from 24 patients with colorectal cancer after radical resection.The expression of CD39+,CD73+ or CD39+ with CD73+ in T cells were measured by flow cytometry.The association between these subgroups and clinicopathologic parameters was analyzed.Results The CD73+ and CD39+ with CD73+ subgroups were associated with lymph node metastasis and poor degree of differentiation,and this mechanism was closely related to tumor-associated inflammation.Conclusion CD39+ with CD73+ colorectal tumor infiltration Treg has a more unique biological activity than other Treg group.This study provides a new idea and theoretical basis for predicting the prognosis of colorectal cancer.

Objective:To explore the linear and nonlinear relation of personality to life satisfaction and de-pression in visual artists.Methods:Totally 132 visual artists were recruited,most of them focused on painting, sculpture and photography.The Mini International Personality Item Pool-Five-Factor Model Measure (Mini-IPIP), the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS)and the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) were adopted to all subjects.Results:The Mini-IPIP neuroticismscores had positive predictability to CES-D scores (β=0.41),while the scores of agreeableness,conscientiousnessand extraversionhad negative pre-dictability to CES-D scores(β=-0.27,-0.23,-0.19).Only conscientiousnessscores had positive predictabil-ity (β = 0.25 ) to SWLS scores in terms of linear relationship between personality traits and life satisfaction.Meanwhile,both'neuroticism'and conscientiousnessscores had U curve relationship with SWLS scores (β=0.32,0.22)after linear effects were controlled.Conclusion:It suggests that personality traits in visual artists could explain depression symptoms and life satisfaction.However,pattern between personality and life satis-faction may be more complex.

Objective To study the usefulness of combined flow cytometry (FCM) and polymerasechain reaction examination for clonal TCR gene rearrangements in the diagnosis of T-cell lymphoma (T-NHL). Methods Histopathologic features, immunohistochemistry, flow cytometric immunophenotyping, cytomorphologic evaluation and TCR gene rearrangements of 32 T-NHL were reviewed retrospectively. The control cases were 18 reactive lesions and 1 histiocytic necrotizing lymphaderitis. Results Out of 32 T-NHL,23 were diagnosed as T-NHL by FCM / TCR gene rearrangements. Of 19 control group, 17 were diagnosed as reactive lesions by FCM / TCR gene rearrangements. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 71.9%, 89.5% and 78.4%, respectively. Conclusions FCM / TCR gene rearrangement is a very important technique in diagnosing T-NHL. Thus, patients with fine needle aspiration cytology can be saved from having an invasive surgery.

Objective:To investigate the role of NIMA-related kinase-7 (NEK7) in breast cancer (BC) and its potential molecular mechanism.Methods:Quantitative real-time reverse-transcription (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression of NEK7 in BC tissue and cell lines. The effect of NEK7 on BC cell proliferation was examined by CCK-8. Proteins interacted with NEK7 were screened in Biological database. The effect of overexpression of NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) on BC cell proliferation was evaluated. Western blot was used to detect NLRP3 protein expression, and ELISA was employed to evaluate IL-1β and IL-18 expression level.Result:NEK7 was upregulated in BC tissues and cells, and enforced-expression of NEK7 promoted BC cell proliferation[NEK7 over-expression group: 24 h: (0.33±0.02) , 48 h: (0.59±0.02) , 72 h: (0.76±0.02) ; Blank group: 24 h: (0.30±0.02) , 48 h: (0.45±0.02) , 72 h: (0.62±0.03) ; NEK7 empty vector group: 24 h: (0.32±0.02) , 48 h: (0.46±0.02) , 72 h: (0.63±0.03) ]. There was a positive correlation between NEK7 and NLRP3 ( R=0.13) . Overexpression of NLRP3 increased the proliferation ability of BC cell[NLRP3 over-expression group: 24 h: (0.35±0.02) , 48 h: (0.65±0.02) , 72 h: (0.80±0.03) ; Blank group: 24 h: (0.33±0.02) , 48 h: (0.51±0.02) , 72 h: (0.66±0.03) ; NLRP3 empty vector group: 24 h: (0.34±0.02) , 48 h: (0.52±0.03) , 72 h: (0.66±0.03) ]. NEK7 could positively regulate NLRP3 protein and up-regulate IL-1β (NEK7 over-expression group: 129.96±7.62 pg/ml, Blank group: 19.80±2.42pg/ml, NEK7 empty vector group: 21.30±1.77 pg/ml) and IL-18 (NEK7 over-expression group: 144.08±17.20 pg/ml, Blank group: 16.84±2.34pg/ml, NEK7 empty vector group: 17.64±1.94 pg/ml) expression. Conclusion:The upregulation of NEK7 was involved in the process of BC progression by inducing NLRP3 inflammasome activation, suggesting that NEK7 might be a promising therapeutic target for BC.

Objective: To explore the characteristics of clinical pathology, diagnosis, and prognosis of primary renal lymphoma (PRL).Methods: The clinical features, pathological features, immune phenotypes, treatment, and prognosis of 22 patients were retrospectively analyzed. Results: The PRL patients' ages ranged from 2 to 72 years (mean, 54.3 years), of which 13 patients were older than 50 years (59.1%). All of the 22 patients were diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), including 20 cases of B-cell lymphoma and 2 cases of T-cell lymphoma. Seven patients were still alive and survived for 6-50 months, but the other 15 were dead and survived for only 5-35 months. Conclusion: PRL is uncommon. Clinical manifestations and imaging performance specificity are not obvious. and easily misdiagnosed. Histopathology is still the golden standard for the final diagnosis of this entity. The kidney is most easily involved followed by the bladder. B-cell NHL is the common subtype, and the most common type is the diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Up to now,no standard regime could be performed for PRL patients. At present, comprehensive therapy, including surgery and chemotherapy, is recommended. For patients with locally advanced or highly aggressive status, therapeutic effect with chemotherapy alone is usually satisfied.
