Objective To summarize the experience of surgical management of carotid tumors ( CBT ) and application of shunt between common and internal carotid artery intraoperatively. Methods Thirty patients of CBT (mean age:39. 2 ±2. 3 years old,10 male and 20 female, 15 in left, 14 in right and 1 in both sides) who underwent surgical resection, were retrospectively reviewed. The average size of CBT was 4.9 ±0.3 cm. The diagnosis was established by ultrasound, CT, MRI or carotid arteriography. 16 patients underwent surgical resection of CBT, 10 patients underwent additional ligation of external carotid artery, and 4 patients underwent additional intraoperative shunt between common and internal carotid artery. Results Surgical procedures were successfully performeded in all 30 patients with CBT. Intraoperative shunts were successfully used between common and internal carotid artery in 4 patients. The postoperative complications included hoarseness (15) , bucking (11), crooked tongue ( 17) , dyspnea (1), dysphagia(3). There was no hemiplegia and death. Conclusion Surgical resection is the choice of treatment of carotid body tumor. The application of intraoperative shunt between common and internal carotid artery in complicated Shamblin Ⅲ stage is safe and effective.

Axillary lymph node status isone of the most important prognostic factors for the patients with breast cancer.Physical examination combining with ultrasound, mammography, CT, MRI and PET-CT can improve the predictive efficiency, but there is still high false negative rate.Ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration for axillary lymph node can improve preoperative diagnostic rate effectively.Using mathematical and statistical methods, building models for predicting sentinel lymph node or non-sentinel lymph node status with clinicopathological features helps to calculate the risk of lymph node involvement.Whether screening out patients with low risk of lymph node involvement avoiding axillary surgery is safe or not is still to be evaluated by relevant clinical trials.

Objective:To investigate the role of sterol regulatory element binding protein-1 (SREBP1) in atorvastatin-induced reduction of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 1 ( NLRP1 ) inflammasome expression. Methods:THP-1 cells were treated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (160 nmol/L) for 12 h to be differentiated into macrophages. The medium was then replaced with serum-free medium containing lipopolysaccharide and ( or ) atorvastatin. The mRNA expression of NLRP1 and SREBP1 were detected by Real-time PCR. The protein expression of NLRP1 and SREBP1 were determined by Western blot. Furthermore, we observed the effect of SREBP1 siRNA on atorvastatin-induced reduction of NLRP1 expression. Results:Atorvastatin inhibited the mRNA and protein expression of NLRP1 and SREBP1 in the THP-1 macrophages. SREBP1 siRNA showed no significant difference on lowering NLRP1 expression when compared with atorvastatin. Treating cells with SREBP1 siRNA and atorvastatin at the same time resulted in more obvious reduction of NLRP1 expression than single use of SREBP1 siRNA or atorvastatin. Conclusion:Atorvastatin might exert anti-inflammatory effect by repressing NLRP1 expression through the SREBP1 path-way.

The mission acceptance, implementation results, disease spectrum composition, pre-transfer preparation and medical intervention on board were summarized.Results:① General information: a total of 168 patients of helicopter transfer requests were registered, of which 36 patients were transferred, 35 patients were successful, 1 patient had cardiac arrest during the landing phase, and died several hours after continuous resuscitation. Of the 36 patients 30 were males and 6 were females, with median age of 50.5 (29.8, 66.0) years old, the average transfer time was (54.95±17.89) minutes, and the average transfer distance was (205.74±74.68) km. ② Disease spectrum included 11 cases of stroke (30.55%), 7 cases of trauma (19.45%), 5 cases of severe pneumonia (13.89%), 5 cases of heart and macro-vascular diseases (13.89%), 5 cases of abdominal emergency (13.89%), and 3 other conditions (8.33%).③ Severity: 31 patients (86.11%) were severe (≥15) according to acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) score; 19 patients (52.78%) were high-risk emergency transport (≥6) according to Hamilton early warning score (HEWS); 6 patients (85.71% of trauma patients) were severe trauma (≥16) according to injury severity score (ISS). ④ Preparation before transfer: remote consultation was carried out to evaluate the latest state of the patient's condition, especially the respiratory and circulatory conditions. Relevant items were reviewed and emergency treatments were implemented when necessary. Targeted preparation was made for accidents that might occur during transfer, such as electrocardiogram (94.44%), blood gas analysis (94.44%), brain CT (36.11%) and other auxiliary examinations, endotracheal intubation or tracheotomy (72.22%), deep vein catheterization (91.67%), placement of gastric tube (86.11%) and urinary tube (88.89%), adjustment of sedative (38.89%), vasoactive drugs (58.33%) and drugs for dehydration and lowering intracranial pressure (33.33%), and fixation of fracture (11.11%), etc. ⑤ On-board medical intervention: cardiac monitoring, blood pressure, respiration and blood oxygen monitoring were carried out in all patients. The parameters of patients using ventilator were adjusted in time (66.67%). The dosage of patients using micropump was adjusted in time (91.67%). Other aspects included the use of sedative and analgesics (38.89%), sputum suction nursing (75.00%), all kinds of catheter nursing (endotracheal intubation/incision nursing of 72.22%, indwelling catheter nursing of 88.89%), and cardiopulmonary resuscitation for patient with cardiac arrest (2.78%).Conclusion:As the patients transferred by helicopter are mainly those of critically ill at this stage, the requirements for airborne medical equipment and rescue technology are high, and there is an urgent need to establish technical specifications and personnel training standards.
