Ultrasound,MRI and mammography play significant roles in diagnosis,staging and follow-up of patients with breast cancer.With the development of individualized treatment of breast cancer,the molecular classification of breast cancer has vital reference value for treatment protocols.The requirements of medical imaging evolve from detecting breast cancer by morphological characteristics to making more accurate diagnosis using functional imaging for breast cancer.Correlations between molecular subtypes and ultrasonic,mammographic and MRI features of breast cancer attract broad attention.The correlation of molecular subtypes with uhrasound,MRI and mammography features in breast cancer patients were reviewed in this article.

Objective To establish a pre-column derivatization-high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) method for the determination of free formaldehyde in Sabin strain inactivated poliovirus vaccine(IPV)(Vero cells), validate and apply the method, so as to provide a new method for the determination of free formaldehyde in vaccines.Methods The sample was derivatized with 2, 4-dinitrophenylhydrazine and loaded onto a C18 chromatographic column(5 μm, 120 ?, 4. 6 mm ×250 mm). The detection wavelength, mobile phase ratio, flow rate, derivatization time, temperature, buffer solution, and derivatization container were optimized for the separation conditions. The specificity, linearity, repeatability, accuracy, limit of detection(LOD), limit of quantitation(LOQ) and robustness of the method were verified. The content of free formaldehyde in 20 batches of IPV(Vero cells) was detected by using the optimized method.Results Chromatographic conditions: acetonitrile and water in a 70∶30 volume ratio as mobile phase, flow rate 0. 6 mL/min, determination at a wavelength of 352 nm.Derivatization conditions: 0. 5 mL of acetonitrile solution containing 2, 4-dinitrophenylhydrazine and 0. 25 mL of pH 5. 0buffer were added, followed by a 20 min incubation in 60 ℃ water bath. This chromatographic separation conditions effectively separated 2, 4-dinitrophenylhydrazine and formaldehyde derivatives, and the acetaldehyde had no effect on the determination results. In the range of 0. 05-100 μg/mL, formaldehyde standard concentration exhibited a good linear relationship with the peak area, with the r value of 0. 999 9. The relative standard deviations(RSDs) of six test results in the repeatability test was 0. 36%. The recovery rates of formaldehyde content in nine samples were between 102. 0% and 107. 0%. The LOD and LOQ were 0. 025 and 0. 05 μg/mL, respectively. The sample remained stable for 48 h after derivation, showing good robustness. The results of the same batch of samples had good repeatability, and the formaldehyde content was between 4. 5-9. 9 μg/dose.Conclusion The established method has the advantages of wide measurement range, good linearity and high accuracy, and can accurately quantify free formaldehyde in Sabin strain IPV(Vero cells), which can be used as an auxiliary detection method for free formaldehyde content in vaccine products, and is of great significance to the lot release and quality supervision for vaccines.

AIM:To investigate the effect of tanshinone IIA on the apoptosis of human umbilical vein endothe -lial cells (HUVECs) after high glucose treatment.METHODS:The cell viability was determined by MTT assay.The cell apoptotic rate was examined by flow cytometry with Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining .The expression of Bcl-2 and Bax, and the release of mitochondrial cytochrome C ( Cyt C) were analyzed by Western blotting .RESULTS: Tanshinone IIA significantly inhibited high glucose-induced decrease in cell viability and increased the cell apoptosis .Additionally, after tanshinone IIA treatment , Bax expression and the release of mitochondrial Cyt C were significantly inhibited , while Bcl-2 expression was increased .CONCLUSION: Tanshinone IIA prevents high glucose-induced endothelial cell apoptosis via mitochondria-dependent pathway .

BACKGROUND:Hepatic vascular exclusion is important for liver transplantation that can reduce blood loss and make for liver recovery. A variety of favorable hepatic vascular exclusion techniques occur in the development of liver surgery technology, which is stil a research hot in surgical study. OBJECTIVE:To introduce the latest research and the hot spot of hepatic vascular exclusion techniques. METHODS:A computer-based online search of PubMed and Wanfang databases for articles relevant to Pringle maneuve, total hepatic vascular exclusion, selective hepatic vascular exclusion and sectional vascular exclusion under hepatectomy published from January 1999 to January 2014. Totaly 50 articles were included in result analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There are a variety of hepatic vascular exclusion technologies, and intermittent hepatic vascular occlusion and semihepatic vascular exclusion are used most commonly. The applicable principles are as folows: (1) Surgery without vascular exclusion is suitable for < 5 cm lesions at the liver edge. (2) Semi-hepatic vascular exclusion is fit for semi-hepatic lesions, especialy for patients accompanied by liver cirrhosis. Hepatic vascular exclusion with preservation of semi-hepatic artery and liver hanging maneuver are also reported to have a certain value in clinical practice stil need further studies. (3) Intermittent hepatic vascular exclusion is suitable for lesions over half a liver or spanning liver halves (huge lesions). (4) Total hepatic vascular exclusion and its modified technologies are suitable for lesions involving the inferior vena cava and (or) hepatic vein, or lesions closely related to the second and third porta hepatis. (5) Segmental hepatic vascular exclusion is considered for smaler lesions confined to the liver segment under alowed conditions, but semi-hepatic vascular exclusion and Pringle maneuver can be also considered. Depending on patient’s conditions, to select the appropriate method is the key to reduce bleeding and to ensure patient safety.
