Objective:To discuss the oncologic safety, aesthetic outcome, and upper extremity function of single-port insufflation endoscopic nipple-sparing mastectomy (SIE-NSM) in the treatment of early breast cancer.Methods:From January 2014 to August 2019, a total of 80 patients with stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ breast cancer underwent SIE-NSM, at Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University were retrospectively analyzed and followed up. Estimated the oncologic safety, aesthetic outcome, and upper extremity function.Results:SIE-NSM was performed successfully on all 80 patients.There was no serious complication after surgery.The follow-up time was 16-82 months and the median follow-up time was 42 months. Local recurrence occurred in two patients, and there was no distant metastases. Four (5%) patients developed grade 1-3 nipple-areola complex ischemia. There were no cases of subcutaneous effusion.The satisfaction with breasts, chest well-being, psychosocial well-being, and sexual well-being scores were confirmed to be highly rated by Breast-Q scale. Upper extremity function score confirmed that good upper limb function was preserved after surgery. The mean length of incision was (3.6±0.8) cm, and the blood loss was (24.7±19.3) mL.Conclusions:SIE-NSM can achieve a higher cosmetic score and a better recovery of upper limb function on the premise of ensuring the safety of the tumor.This novel method is an appropriate surgical option for patients with early breast cancer.

Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy of the laparoscopic breast-conserving surgery combined with radiofrequency ablation to treat the early-stage breast cancer.Methods We collected 55 patients diagnosed early-stage breast cancer in retrospect,which started from January 2014 to December 2016.Twenty-seven of them were performed the laparoscopic breast-conserving surgery combined with radiofrequency ablation while others went through laparoscopic breast-conserving surgery without radiofrequency ablation.Meanwhile,we adopted the student t-test and the chi-square test to compare results of two groups.More specific,the main indexes of this study are including the post-operative local recurrence,the incidence of fat liquefaction or the incision-infection,operation time,post-operative hospital stay and the hospitalization expense.Results The laparoscopic breast-conserving surgery combined with radiofrequency ablation group had low local-recurrence than the laparoscopic breastconserving surgery group (0 and 7.69％).Additionally,there were no statistical differences between two groups in the incidence of fat liquefaction.However,The laparoscopic breast-conserving surgery combined with radiofrequency ablation group had more hospitalization expense than the laparoscopic breast-conserving surgery group [(4.1 ± 0.7) ten thousand yuan and (2.3 ± 0.6) ten thousand yuan,P ＜ 0.05].Conclusions Although the laparoscopic breast-conserving surgery combined with radiofrequency ablation group remarkably increased the hospitalization expense because of the utility of the radiofrequency ablation related apparatus,it may provide the probability of shaving more residual tumor cell and may low down the recurrence,especially not rising up the incidence of the post-operative fat liquefaction.Therefore,this surgery method might be one of the potential developments in the minimal-invasive of early stage breast cancer.

OBJECTIVETo study the influence of intranasal medication on the structure, pathology and reversibility of the nasal mucosa to provide a basis for the feasibility of intranasal route of drug administration.

METHODSNasal drops of gentamicin were placed in the nasal cavity of rabbits for 3, 5, 7, 14 and 28 days. After that, the drops were stopped and drugs protecting the nasomucosa were used for one and three weeks. After being sacrificed over time, the nasomucosa of the rabbit was observed under optical and electron microscopes.

RESULTSDamage to the nasal mucosa appeared to different extents with prolonged use of nasal drops. Within 3 - 7 days of applying the drug, damages to the nasal mucosa gradually appeared, and after two and four weeks, were most serious. After stopping the drug, the nasal mucosa was gradually restored.

CONCLUSIONDamages of drugs to the nasal mucosa could be restored. The intranasal route of drug administration would be feasible and clinically applicable.

Objective: To detect of the components and concentration of the metals and metalloids in the lavage fluid of whole-lung lavage (WLL) of the cases of pneumoconiosis, and analyze the characteristics, and explore the method to sample and process the samples of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BAL) . Methods: The samples of urine and serum of three cases of pneumoconiosis were collected before WLL, and the samples of BAL were collected during the WLL from the left and right lungs according to the sequence of four pressured gas flow and five negative pressure drainage. Each of 10ml original samples of WLL was collected firstly, and the left was centrifuged to acquire all the sediment samples and each of 10 ml samples from the centrifuge clear liquids, The components and concentration of the metals and metalloids in the samples were measured by Inductively Coupled Plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) . Results: The average volume of BAL from unilat-eral lung for 3 patients was 10 758.3±1518 ml, and the average recovery rate was 89.7%. The average dry weight of sediment samples of BAL of three cases of pneumoconiosis was 0.292 gram with the right lung sam-ples slightly higher than the left lung samples. The detectable elements from the samples included Barium (Ba) , Strontium (Sr) , Calcium (Ca) , Magnesium (Mg) , Manganum (Mn) , Ferrum (Fe) , Cuprum (Cu) , Zinc (Zn) , Kalium (K) , Natrium (Na) , Selenium (Se) , Silicon (Si) and Uranium (U) . Each of concentration dis-tributions of these elements were not normal. Except for Cuprum, Selenium and Uranium, the concentrations of the other ten elements in the supernatant samples, mixture samples and sediments samples were statistical-ly different with the nonparametric test of Kruskal-Wallis. The concentrations of Natrium, Kalium and Barium in supernatant samples were higher, while the others in precipitation samples were higher. The concentration of elements in the sample from the right lung was slightly higher than that from the left lung, but there was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05) . There were statistical difference in term of element concentration of precipitates samples before and after pressured gas flow (P<0.05) . The concentration of K、Ca、Mg、Si and Se in se-rum, urine, supernatant and sediment samples had a good correlation. The correlation coefficient of Silicon between serum and precipitation was 0.676 and that between urine and precipitation was 0.524. Conclusion The concentra-tions of the metals and metalloid in sediment samples were more stable than that of supernatant and mixture samples. The sampling of one-side lung lavage fluid was representative in the detection of metals and metalloid in the BAL. It was the best time for sampling sediment from the BAL after the first pressured gas flow among the WLL.

Objective:To develop a nomogram model based on clinical and imaging parameters to predict the etiological type of acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Methods:Patients with AIS received endovascular treatment in Beijing Hospital from March 2016 to December 2021 were retrospectively included. According to the etiological type, they were divided into large artery atherosclerosis (LAA) and cardioembolism (CE). The clinical and imaging parameters mostly relevant to the etiological type were selected by LASSO regression, and a nomogram model for predicting the etiological type of AIS was established by multifactorial logistic regression to investigate the predictive value of relevant clinical imaging parameters. In addition, the diagnostic efficacy of the prediction model was assessed by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, and clinical decision curves. Results:A total of 136 AIS patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion received endovascular treatment were included, including 62 patients with CE (45.6%) and 74 with LAA (54.4%). Variables with P<0.10 in the univariate analysis were included in LASSO regression to screen for relevant variables. The gender, baseline National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, penumbra to ischemic core ratio, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and platelet (PLT) count were included into the multivariate logistic regression model. The results revealed that gender (odds ratio [ OR] 2.632, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.048-6.607; P=0.039), baseline NIHSS score ( OR 1.078, 95% CI 1.002-1.160; P=0.043), BNP ( OR 1.004, 95% CI 1.002-1.007. P<0.001), PLT ( OR 0.991, 95% CI 0.982-0.999; P=0.031) as the predictors to distinguish LAA from CE. In addition, the penumbra to infarct core ratio ( OR 0.886, 95% CI 0.785-1.000; P=0.050) also played an important role in predicting the model. The diagnostic efficacy of this predictive model was analyzed by the ROC curves, with an area under the curve of 0.881 (95% CI 0.815-0.930, P<0.001). Bootstrap internal validation showed that the good compliance with a mean absolute error of 0.027 for true versus predicted value compliance. Calibration curves, clinical decision curves, and Hosmer-Lemeshow test ( P=0.562) showed good agreement between the predicted and actual values of the model. Conclusion:Patients with CE are more common in women, have higher NIHSS scores and BNP, and have lower PLT and penumbra to ischemic core ratio. The nomogram model combining the above indicators can better identify LAA and CE, and maybe helpful in clinical decision making.
