Objective To compare the clinical effect of laparoscopic and open appendectomy in the treat-ment of perforated appendicitis.Methods 107 patients with perforated appendicitis were selected as the research object and were divided into two groups.The observation group(54cases)received laparoscopic appendectomy while the control group (53cases)received traditional open appendectomy.The size of incision,the amount of bleeding during operation,time of operation and hospitalization and other perioperative indexes and the incidence rate of complications were compared between the two groups.Results The operation time between the two groups had no statistical significance(t =1.286,P >0.05 ).The incision size [(2.5 ±0.3)cm],the amount of intraoperative bleeding[(10.3 ±3.4)mL]and hospitalization time[(5.4 ±0.9)d]of the observation group were better than those of (4.2 ±0.4)cm,(19.4 ±4.2)mL and (6.5 ±1.1 )d in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(t =24.901,12.329,5.666,all P <0.05).The occurrence rate of complications of the observation group was 3.4%,which was lower than 15.1% of the control group,the difference was statistically significant(χ2 =3.940, P <0.05 ).Conclusion Laparoscopic appendectomy has the advantages of less trauma,faster recovery,less complications,shorter hospitalization time,etc.And its effect is better than open appendectomy and worthy of populari-zation and application.

ObjectiveTo explore the expression rule and clinic significance of Twist and E-cadherin and Vimentin in cervical squamous epithelial cancerization.MethodsChronic cervicitis were used as control group,the expression of Twist (using hybridization in situ),E-cadherin and Vimentin( SABC immunohistochemical stain) in tissues of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cervical squamous carcinoma were detected,and the correlations were analyzed.ResultsThe positive rate of Twist in group of chronic cervicitis,CIN Ⅰ,CINⅡ,CIN Ⅲ and cervical squamous carcinoma was 10.0％,28.1％,29.6％,42.9％ and 64.3％,respectively.The expression rate of Twist in cervical squamous carcinoma group was higher than other groups ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The positive rates of E-cadherin and Vimentin were 80.0％,68.8％,55.6％,51.4％,39.3％ and 0,6.3％,7.4％,31.4％,32.1％,respectively.The difference of E-cadherin and Vimentin expression between the cervical squamous carcinoma ( or CIN Ⅲ group) and the chronic cervicitis group was obvious ( P ＜0.05,respectively).The expression of Twist was negatively correlated with E-cadherin( r =-0.37,P ＜0.01 ),and it was positively correlated with Vimentin in all cases of CIN and cervical squamous carcinoma( r =0.23,P ＜0.05).ConclusionsThere is a close relationship between abnormal expression of Twist and cervical squamous epithelial cancerization.Twist may participate in the genesis of cervical squamous carcinoma through mediating the expression of E-cadherin and Vimentin in cervix tissue.

Objective: To explore the clinicopathological features and the diagnostic value of the CT scan in multilocular cystic renal neoplasm of low malignant potential (MCRNLMP) and cystic nephroma (CN). Methods: The clinical data of 12 patients with CN and 20 patients with MCRNLMP, confirmed by pathology at the Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University and Jingzhou Central Hospital from Janu-ary 2000 to March 2019, were retrospectively analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to analyze the feature of contrast-enhanced CT images of the tumors, and the immunophenotypes of the tumors were observed by immunohisto-chemistry. Results: There were statistically significant differences between MCRNLMP and CN in terms of thickness of the cyst wall and partition, number of soft-tissue enhancing masses, peak intensity of enhancement, and the Bosniak classification (P<0.05). Based on ROC curve analyses, when the thickness of the capsule wall and partition was greater than 2.25mm, the number of enhanced high-density lesions was greater than 1, and the peaking intensity of fortification was above the moderate level in the diagnosis of CRNLMP. The areas under the curve of the three indexes were 0.879, 0.800 and 0.838, which can be used as the best diagnostic criterion for MCRNLMP. Immunophenotyping revealed that MCRNLMP characteristically expressed the renal cell carcinoma (RCC) marker, and CN characteristically expressed the estrogen receptor(ER) and progesterone receptor(PR). Conclusions: The cyst wall and septal thickness, number of soft-tissue enhancing masses, and peak intensity of enhancement show a higher diagnostic value in differentiating MCRN-LMP and CN. The precise diagnosis relies on the pathological and immunohistochemical examination.
