The operation had been proved to be safe and effective. Few serious complication were reported. The alleviation of QOL and compensatory hyperhidrosis dominated the result of degree of satisfaction. Conclusions Operation can improve quality of life of hyperhidrosis patients greatly. The specific QOL questionnaire of hyperhidrosis has a bright future in clinical practice.

BACKGROUND: Nanosphere, an ideal nonviral gene delivery vector, is not excellence of immunogenicity and oncogenicity. Nanotechnology and gene interference are used to block hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) expression in esophageal squamous carcinoma tissue and decrease tolerance of malignant cells to chemotherapeutics. Theoretically, they become effective methods to inhibit malignant cell growth of esophageal squamous carcinoma. OBJECTIVE: To study the inhibitory effect of small interference RNA targeting HIF-1α (siRNA-HIF-1α) nanospheres on human esophageal squamous cancer TE-1 cell growth. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Based on in vitro cultured esophageal squamous cancer TE-1 cells, a completely randomized controlled study was performed at the Central Laboratory, the Third Hospital Affiliated to Sun Yat-sen University from January 2007 to December 2008. MATERIALS: siRNA-HIF-1α was synthesized by Shanghai Bioengineering Company; siRNA-HIF-1α nanospheres were prepared using solvent evaporation technique; human esophageal squamous cancer TE cell strain was provided by Shanghai Cell Bank of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. METHODS: TE-1 cells cultured in vitro were assigned into four groups: saline, gene-free nanospheres, siRNA-HIF-1α, and siRNA-HIF-1α nanospheres groups. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: HIF-1α mRNA expression was detected by RT-PCR; HIF-1α protein expression was detected by Western blot; apoptosis of TE-1 cells was determined by flow cytometry; TE-1 cell growth was examined by MTT. RESULTS: At 72 hours after treatment, both HIF-1α mRNA expression and HIF-1α protein expression in the siRNA-HIF-1α nanospheres group were significantly less than other three groups (P < 0.01), but apoptotic rate was significantly greater than other three groups (P < 0.01). TE-1 cell growth was remarkably inhibited in the siRNA-HIF-1α nanospheres group, which was significantly different compared with other three groups (P < 0.01).CONCLUSION: siRNA-HIF-1α nanospheres can specifically reduce both HIF-1α mRNA and HIF-1α protein expressions in esophageal squamous carcinoma TE-1 cells, significantly increase tumor cell apoptosis, and remarkably inhibit TE-1 cell growth.

Objective To investigate the frequency and mutational status of JAK2V617F mutation in Chinese patients with chronic myeloproliferative disorders(CMPD) and to study the relative quantification of mutated JAK2 mRNA and the clinical significance. Methods JAK2V617F mutation and the mutational status were screened with amplification-refractory mutation system polymerase chain reaction(ARMS-PCR), the relative quantification of mutated JAK2 mRNA was studied by using capillary electrophoresis. Results A higher prevalence of JAK2V617F in either the heterozygotc or homozyote status in essential thrombocythemia (ET) was observed in elderly patients with ET (P<0.05). The presence of JAK2V617F was found to be significantly correlated with the age at diagnosis (P<0.05); patients with age ≥ 60 years showed significantly higher JAK2 mutated RNA levels than those with age < 60 years (P<0.05); the presence of JAK2V617F in polycythemia vera (PV) and ET was found to be significantly associated with higher hemoglobin level and higher leukocyte count (P< 0.05). In addition, higher leukocyte count was observed in homozygous ET patients than in heterozygous ET patients (P<0.05). The frequency of JAK2V617F mutation and the prevalence of homozygote in PV patients were higher than those in ET patients (P<0.05). The differences of JAK2V617F mRNA levels among PV, ET and chronic idiopathic myelofibrosis (IMF) were not significant. Conclusions ARMS-PCR technique can be used to detect the frequency and mutational status of JAK2V617F mutation owing to its sensitivity and along with capillary electrophoresis, quantitative assay for mutated JAK2 mRNA, diagnosis of CMPD and judgement of prognosis become possible.

Objective To determine the prevalence and treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD) among citizens in Ningbo. Methods A multi-stage stratified random sampling was applied to select 8 neighborhoods and 3 villages out of 7 districts in Ningbo, people who were older than or equal to 40 years were enrolled as subjects. Information on the prevalence rate and treatment conditions of COPD was collected through respiratory symptoms and treatment questionnaire and lung function screening. Results A total of 5865 people were screened, 5674 of them met inclusion criteria and completed questionnaire and lung function test. Among whom, 3044 people were men (53.6%, the average age is 55.7±11.4), 2630 women (46.4%, the average age was 55.3 ± 10.7);473 of them were diagnosed with COPD, the overall prevalence rate was 8.3%, including 354 cases who had never been diagnosed as COPD, accounted for 74.8% of the total cases diagnosed with COPD, mainly in stage ⅠandⅡof the disease. There were statistically significant differences between diagnosed and undiagnosed patients in the overall COPD group and among different gender groups ( stagesⅠandⅡ) and (stagesⅢandⅣ). Among the 473 COPD cases, 119 (diagnostic yield 25.2%) of whom had been diagnosed with bronchitis, only 48 (41.2%of the diagnosed) received drug treatment, only 13 patients were treated regularly with medication. Conclusion The overall prevalence rate of COPD among those over 40 years of age in Ningbo was quite high and mainly had stagesⅠandⅡof the disease. The number of the diagnostic yield and those who received regular treatment are quite low. The current situation of diagnosis and treatment are far from satisfaction, management of COPD should be strengthened to reduce the burden for family and society.

Male infertility is a multifactorial disease, of which the cause of male infertility cannot be determined, which is called idiopathic male infertility, and the incidence rate is gradually rising. Because its cause is unknown, it has become a major problem in the department of reproductive endocrinology. With the in-depth study of epigenetics, the diagnosis and treatment of idiopathic male infertility also has a new direction, especially the important role of DNA methylation in spermatogenesis and embryonic development. More and more gene fragments and loci have been found by scholars, which makes it possible to achieve accurate identification and targeted treatment. This article reviews and summarizes the research progress of DNA methylation related to idiopathic male infertility in recent years, aiming to further elaborate the pathogenesis of idiopathic male infertility and provide new ideas for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To study the correlation of hematomorphology, bone marrow cytogenetics and clinical biochemical parameters with the prognosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with bone marrow invasion. METHODS: Morphological analysis of bone marrow cells was performed by routine bone marrow puncture.Chromosome samples were prepared by short-term bone marrow culture. Karyotype analysis was carried out by R-banding in 28 patients. P53 gene was detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) of all patients was determined and compared. RESULTS: In all patients, bone marrow morphology showed invasion of lymphoma. Chromosome analysis revealed abnormal karyotypes in 19 cases, which yielded an incidence of 67.85%. The proportion of lymphoma cells in bone marrow among those with an abnormal karyotype was much higher than those with a normal karyotype (60.2% vs. 33.5%, P<0.05). FISH assay showed that 9 (32.14%) patients had P53 gene deletion. And the deletion was much more common among those with an abnormal karyotype (42.11% vs. 11.11%, P<0.05). The serum LDH level in patients with an abnormal karyotype was significantly higher compared with whose with a normal karyotype (1464.37 U/L vs. 294.33 U/L, P<0.05). CONCLUSION Patients with abnormal karyotypes have a higher rate of P53 gene deletion, and their LDH level is significantly higher than those with a normal karyotype, which predicted a relatively poor prognosis.

OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical and laboratory features of a patient with 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome (EMS) and CEP110-FGFR1 fusion. METHODS Combined bone marrow cytology, fluorescence in situ hybridization, fusion gene detection was used to analyze the patient. RESULTS Clinically, the patient had many features similar to those with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, which included hyperleukocytosis, marked eosinophilia, monocytosis, myeloid hyperplasia and hyperplasia. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis for FGFR1 gene rearrangement was positive. Further study of the mRNA also confirmed an in-frame fusion between exon 38 of the CEP110 gene and exon 9 of FGFR1 gene. CONCLUSION EMS with CEP110-FGFR1 fusion is a very rare and distinct myeloproliferative neoplasm. FISH and molecular studies may improve its diagnosis.
