Objective To investigate the effects of different surgical modalities on primary anorectal malignant melanoma. Methods Clinical data of 60 primary anorectal malignant melanoma cases who were admitted between 1965 and 2007 were collected, summarized and analyzed. Multivariate analysis was performed using the COX proportional hazards regression method. Results Tumors located in the rectum in 50 cases, in the anal canal in 10 cases. The overall survival rates were not significantly different between the 23 cases who received tumor resection only and those 30 cases receiving postoperative adjuvant therapy (X2=0. 078, P>0.05). Among these 53 surgical cases of anorectal malignant melanoma, 37underwent abdominoperineal resection, 16 underwent wide local excisions, There was no significant difference of the survival rates between the two groups (X2=1.464,P>0.05). Risk factors analysis revealed that the depth of tumor invasion is a risk factor (P<0.05), the modality of treatment is a protective factor (P<0.05). Conclusions Surgical operation is the principal effective management for anorectal malignant melanoma, Wide local excision is the principal therapeutic choice for localized well-circumferential anorectal malignant melanomas.

0.05). Intraoperative blood transfusion in drainage group (1 300ml) was significantly increased than that in non-drainage group( 939ml)(P0.05). The hospital stay in drainage group[ average 71(43-101)days] was significantly longer than that in non- drainage group [ average 47(29-81)days](P=0.05). Conclusions If a sufficient preoperative preparation is performed,one stage PD operation is a benificial method for peri-ampullar carcinoma patients complicated with severe obstructive jaundice.

The expression of adjacent mucosa was significantly lower than that in other three sites(?2=16.53,P

BACKGROUNDLung cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide and its mortality rate has increased year after year. Molecular biology has contributed to make people's understanding to the disease at the gene level. A new idea will be given to the early diagnosis and treatment for lung cancer with the method of molecular biology which can be used to find the association between some genes and lung cancer. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between polymorphism of codon 72 (BstU I single nucleotide polymorphism, BstU I SNP) in p53 gene and susceptibility and radiosensitivity of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in Chinese population.

METHODSThe BstU I single nucleotide polymorphic sites at condon 72 in exon 4 of p53 gene in 50 patients with NSCLC as well as 50 healthy controls were inspected by polymerase chain reaction-restricted fragment length polymorphism assay and the relationship between BstU I SNP and susceptibility and radiosensitivity of NSCLC was analysed by case-control test.

RESULTSThe allelic distribution of the three genotypes (A1/A1, A1/A2, A2/A2) in healthy controls was 32.0%, 42.0% and 26.0% respectively, which differed slightly from that of lung cancer patients, which was 28.0%, 32.0% and 40.0%. These allelic and genotype differences between control and lung cancer groups (A1/A1 OR=0.83, 95% CI 0.36-1.27 and A2/A2 OR=1.90, 95% CI 0.82-4.42) were insignificant. The patients with A1/A1 or A2/A2 genotype were sensitive to radiotherapy and the patients with A1/A2 were not sensitive to radiother-apy (Chi-square=9.2, P < 0.05), the effective rate to radiotherapy were 71.4%, 70.0% and 25.0% respectively.

CONCLUSIONSThere is no significant relationship between the BstUI SNP in p53 and susceptibility in NSCLC .The p53 BstU I SNP is closely associated with radiosensitivity of NSCLC in the Northern Chinese population.

Objective:Autoimmune mechanisms, including cellular and humoral immune, are likely to participate in the pathogenesis of at least a subgroup of idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy(IDC), in which cellular immune-mediated one plays a more important role. Cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated antigen-4(CTLA-4) is the major negative regulatory factor of cellular immunity. This study was conducted to investigate the association of CTLA-4 gene promoter -318C/T polymorphism, exon 1 A/G polymorphism and 3′ untranslated region microsatellite polymorphism with susceptibility to IDC in Han Chinese.Methods:Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphisms(PCR-RFLP) techniques were used to analyze the polymorphisms of CTLA-4 promoter -318, exon 1 A/G and 3′ untranslated region in the unrelated Han ethnic population in Heilongjiang Province(including 72 IDC patients and 100 normal controls). Serum sCTLA-4 was tested by ELISA. The relationship of CTLA-4 genotype and alleles frequencies with sCTLA-4 was evaluated by linear regression analysis.Results:Compared with controls, the frequencies of GG genotype(0.604 2 and 0.739 6, P=0.012) and the G allele(0.360 0 and 0.560 0, P=0.008) were significantly increased in patients with IDC. Increased serum sCTLA-4 was found in the IDC group compared with the controls[(1.87?1.06)?g/L vs (0.54?0.19)?g/L, P

OBJECTIVETo discuss the prognosis of primary liver carcinoma treated with local resection and factors affecting prognosis.

METHODSThe data of 130 patients who had been treated from October 1989 to October 1995 were analyzed retrospectively. We analyzed the concrete operating methods, the cause of postoperative complications and factors affecting prognosis.

RESULTSCurative local resection was performed in 130 patients. Operation-related mortality was 0.8% and the incidence of complication was 16.1% (n = 18). The overall 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates were 82.1%, 60.6% and 48.2%, respectively. Involvement of blood vessels or liver capsules and the elevation of AST before operation were the significant factors affecting prognosis (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONLocal resection is a safe method characterized by little damage, rapid, less blood loss, low complication rate and good prognosis.

Objecfive:To investigate the clinical characteristics and surgical management of tumor invasion on recurrent laryngeal nerve at the entrance of larynx in thyroid cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 30 patients with recurrent laryngeal nerve invasion by thyroid cancer from Aug 2012 to Aug 2018 in Cangzhou Central Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Patients were divided into groups A (14 cases ,nerve was invaded at the larynx) and group B (16 cases,nerve was involved in other parts).Results:Between the two groups, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, number of tumor focus, adhesion and infiltration were not statistically different ( P>0.05). The tumor size in group A was smaller ( t=-3.614, P=0.001), the lymph node metastasis rate was lower ( χ2=5.593, P=0.018), and the microcancer rate was higher ( χ2=4.051, P=0.044).Follow up data up to 24 months showed there were no significant difference in postoperative hoarseness , laryngoscope abnormality and recurrence rate between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Patients of thyroid cancer with recurrent laryngeal nerve invasion at the larynx had relatively small tumor size, higher proportion of microcancer, lower rate of lymph node metastasiss.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of extract of ginkgo biloba (EGB) on mitochondrial autophagy in breast cancer cells MCF-7.Methods:Breast cancer MCF-7 cells were divided into four groups. EGB with mass concentrations of 40, 80, 120 mg/L was used to incubate breast cancer MCF-7 cells for 24 h or 48 h, as a low concentration group of EGB, a medium concentration group of EGB, and a high concentration group of EGB. Breast cancer MCF-7 cells without intervention were taken as control group. Cell proliferation was measured using MTT assay; Flow cytometry was used to detect cell apoptosis; Immunofluorescence assay was used to determine the contents of prostacyclin (P62), microtubule-associated protein light chain 3Ⅱ (LC3Ⅱ), and caspase-3; The levels of multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1), multidrug resistance gene 1 (MDR1) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) were identified by PCR; Western blotting was used to detect the expression of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), p-ERK, and p-MAPK proteins in cells.Results:The results of MTT assay for cell proliferation showed that cell proliferation at 24 h in control group, EGB low, medium and high concentration groups were 0.95±0.14, 0.65±0.09, 0.51±0.07, 0.37±0.04, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( F=43.13, P<0.001), cell proliferation at 48 h were 1.32±0.19, 0.54±0.08, 0.32±0.05, 0.15±0.02, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( F=141.30, P<0.001).
