Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and differential diagnosis of spindle cell rhabdomyosarcoma ( SCRM) . Methods Three cases of SCRMs were analyzed by gross examination, microscopy and immunohistochemistry. Relevant lit-eratures were reviewed to summarize the diagnostic features of SCRM and its differential diagnosis. Results All the 3 cases were male infants aged from 2 days to 4 years. 2 cases were located in paratesticular and 1 in back. Tumors were all well-circumscribed but unen-capsulated, with white-gray cut surface, firmed and sized 2. 0 to 6. 0 cm in diameter. Histologically, tumors displayed invasive growth but were well-circumscribed. Tumor cells were spindle to round with eosinophilic cytoplasm and fascicular, storiform, wavy appear-ance. Horizontal structure and striated muscle brood cells were observed in some cells or local regions. A small amount of collagen fi-brils were observed in the mesenchymal components. The nucleus were long or fine wavy with unconspicuous nuclear atypia, mitosis could be occasional observed. Immunohistochemically, tumor cells were positive for vimentin, desmin, myogenin and MyoD1. CK,α-inhabin, AFP, CD34 and S-100 were negative. Conclusions SCRM is a rare and new type of rhabdomyosarcoma that commonly oc-curred in infant. It should be differentiated from other tumors, such as infantile fibromatosis, congenital fibrosarcoma, fibrosarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, triton tumor, malignant melanoma of promoting the fibrous tissues.

AIM: To observe the changes of adengl cyclase(AC) and phosphodiesterase(PDE) activities of at different time point in hypothalamus of rats with fever and hypothermia. METHODS: Radioisotope method was used to measure the activity of AC and PDE. RESULTS:The fresh yeast caused rats fever after subcutaneous injection 4h( P

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum uric acid level and renal function decline by retrospective cohort study.Methods Through the physical examination system of the First People's Hospital of Foshan,the physical examination data from 2015 to 2018 of a public institution in Foshan city were obtained.The gender,age,blood cell analysis,liver function,serum creatinine,uric acid,fasting blood glucose were obtained.The change of eGFR (△eGFR=eGFR2018-eGFR2015) was analyzed.Results A total of 2505 subjects were followed up for four years.The subjects were divided into △eGFR ≥0 group and △eGFR < 0 group.There were 845 subjects in △eGFR ≥0 group,and 1660 subjects in △eGFR < 0 group.Compared with that in △eGFR < 0 group,the base-level of uric acid in △eGFR ≥ 0 group was higher [(349.48±87.62) μmol/L vs (325.72±82.58) μmol/L,t=6.669,P < 0.001],but the rate of uric acid decline was greater [-15.00(-53.50,17.00) μmol/L vs 15.50(-18.00,49.00) μmol/L,Z=-13.470,P < 0.001].According to the levels of uric acid in 2015 and 2018,then the subjects were divided into four groups,normal to normal group (N-N,1551 cases),normal change into high uric acid group (N-H,299 cases),high uric acid drop to normal group (H-N,238 cases),and high to high uric acid group (H-H,417 cases).The △eGFR was-1.58(-4.17,1.01) ml · min-1 · (1.73 m2) 1 in N-N group,and-3.60(-7.24,-0.98) ml · min-1 · (1.73 m2)-1 in N-H group,-0.20(-3.14,3.27) ml· min-1· (1.73 m2)-1 in H-N group,-0.96(-4.07,1.93) ml· min-1· (1.73 m2)-1 in H-H group,respectively.The △eGFR decreased most significantly in N-H group than the other three groups (x2=103.130,P < 0.001).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that elevated uric acid was an independent risk factor for eGFR decline (OR=1.739,95%CI 1.587-1.906,P < 0.001),while elevated indirect bilirubin (OR=0.968,95%CI 0.943-0.993,P=0.013),elevated red blood cells (OR=0.815,95% CI 0.680-0.976,P=0.026) were independent protective factors for eGFR decline.Conclusion Elevated uric acid is an independent risk factor for the decline of renal function.Good control of hyperuricemia is beneficial to the protection of renal function.

Objective To investigate the effects of gemstone energy spectrum CT atomic number method and infrared spec-troscopy for analyzing the composition of urinary calculi and to compare their values in qualitative diagnosis of urinary calculi .Meth-ods Two hundreds and sixty cases of urinary tract stones were performed the gemstone spectrum CT urinary scanning and the stone composition was identified by atomic number method .After removing stone ,the stone composition analyzed by infrared spec-troscopy served as the gold standard .Then the consistency identified by the two methods was analyzed .Results The Kappa consis-tency test results showed that the two kinds of method for identifying stone type had good consistency (Kappa=0 .787 ,P<0 .01) . The paired chi square test results showed that the difference of the two methods for identifying the stone type had no statistical sig-nificance(χ2 =6 .581 ,P=0 .254) .The stone crystal composition types measured by gemstone energy spectrum CT atomic number method were less than those measured by infrared spectroscopy .The precise quantification of the stones with different crystal struc-tures was not as accurate as that of infrared spectroscopy (calcium oxalate monohydrate and calcium oxalate dihydrate ) .Conclusion The two methods for analyzing theurinary stone composition all have clinical significance ,the stone analysis method should be se-lected according to the actual situation .
