Objective To study the expression of metastasic suppressor gene( KAI1 / CD82)and cell adhesion molecules(CD44v6)in human laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma(LSCC),precancerous lesion,polyps,and normal mucosa. Methods Immunohistochemical technique( Envision)was used to detect the expression of KAI1 / CD82 protein and CD44v6 protein in 64 cases of LSCC,21 cases of laryngeal precancerous lesion(LPL),15 cases of polyp of larynx(LP)and 15 cases of normal laryngeal mucosa(NLM). Results The result turned out to be as follows:①KAI1 / CD82 protein was highly expressed in NLM and LP,and lowly expressed in LPL and LSCC,the positive rates of KAI1 / CD82 protein expression were 86. 67%(13 / 15),80. 00%(12 / 15),38. 10%(8 / 21)and 37. 50%(24 /64),respectively. There was statistically significant difference in NLM and LSCC. ② CD44v6 protein was lowly ex-pressed in NLM and LP and highly expressed in LPL and LSCC,the positive rates of CD44v6 protein expression were 26. 67%(4 / 15),33. 33%(5 / 15),80. 95%(17 / 21)and 75. 00%(48 / 64),respectively. There was statisti-cally significant difference in NLM and LSCC. Conclusion ① The down-regulation or deletion of KAI1 / CD82 and the up-regulation of CD44v6 are related to carcinogenesis,development of LSCC. ② The combined detection of KAI1 / CD82 and CD44v6 may provide clinical basis for the early diagnosis of LSCC.

Purpose To study the expression of metastasis suppressor gene (KAI1/CD82) and cell adhesion molecules(CD44v6) in human laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma ( LSCC) and its clinical significance, and to investigate their relationship. Methods EnVi-sion immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of KAI1/CD82 and CD44v6 protein in 64 cases of LSCC tissues and 15 ca-ses of normal laryngeal mucosa ( NLM) tissues. Results The positive rate of KAI1/CD82 in LSCC tissues ( 37. 50%) was signifi-cantly lower than that of the NLM tissues(86. 67%) (P=0. 031), and the positive rate of CD44v6 in LSCC tissues(75. 00%) was significantly higher than that of the NLM tissues(26. 67%) (P=0. 011). The expression of KAI1/CD82 was associated with clinical stages, grade of tumor differentiation, neck lymph node metastasis ( P<0. 05 ) while not related with age, sex and prognosis ( P>0. 05). And CD44v6 with grade of tumor differentiation, neck lymph node metastasis and prognosis (P<0. 05), but not with age, sex and clinical stages (P>0. 05). In addition, KAI1/CD82 expression was negatively correlated with CD44v6 expression (rs = -0. 504, P=0. 036). Conclusion KAI1/CD82 and CD44v6 are mutually inhibited in the tumorigenesis, progress, invasion and metastasis, and detection of the expression of KAI1/CD82 and CD44v6 may be helpful for judging the biological behaviors of LSCC.

PurposeSmall breast mass (diameter≤1 cm) is prone to misdiagnosis in clinic. This paper aims to evaluate a combined application of breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS) and ultrasound elastography (UE) on small breast mass (diameter≤1 cm).Materials and MethodsA retrospective analysis was carried out on 231 patients with a total of 258 small masses (the maximal diameter ≤1 cm). Ultrasound BI-RADS was used for classiifcation while UE was used to adjust the results. The results were further compared with those of postoperative pathology. The curve of ROC was employed to evaluate the combined use on small breast mass.ResultsAmong the 258 small masses, 178 (69.0%) were benign masses and the rest 80 (31.0%) were malignant. The small masses which were evaluated as BI-RADS grade 3, 4 and 5 before the operation had positive prediction value for malignant masses of 10.3% (17/165), 60.5% (46/76) and 100.0% (17/17), respectively. After adjustment with UE, the values changed to 5.3%(9/169), 75.0% (54/72) and 100.0% (17/17), respectively. After adjustment with the combination method, the area under ROC curve in BI-RADS classification was 0.904, which was signiifcantly higher than that (0.827) before the adjustment (Z=2.83,P<0.05). ConclusionFor small breast mass (diameter≤1 cm), mass of BI-RADS grade 3 has higher positive prediction value. But after adjustment with UE, the positive prediction value of mass of BI-RADS grade 3 tends to be lower, whilst that of mass of BI-RADS grade 4 increases, thus promoting the efficiency of ultrasound BI-RADS classification for small breast mass and contributing to the identiifcation of benign and malignant small breast masses.

To investigate the prevalence of mental health problems in male violent offenders of Hunan and Sichuan Provinces; and to compare the types and severity of problems between the violent and nonviolent offenders.Methods:Ninety-one violent juvenile offenders and 64 nonviolent juvenile offenders in the juvenile detention centers of Hunan,and 81 violent juvenile offenders in the juvenile detention centers of Sichuan; 39 high school students from a middle school of Hunan Province and 49 from a middle school of Sichuan Province were investigated using the Investigation Screening Inventory for Child Mental Disorder and the Kiddy Schedule for Affective Diseases and Schizophrenia (K-SADS-PL),and classified according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.Results:In the Hunan violent group,86.6％ met the criterion of conduct disorder (CD),17.6％ of substance abuse,9.9％ of substance dependence,while in the Hunan nonviolent group,75.0％ met the criterion of CD,and 11.7％ of substance abuse; these were all significantly higher than those of the control group (P＜0.05).In the Sichuan violent group,17.3％ met the criterion of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD),18.5％ of oppositional defiant disorder (ODD),69.1％of CD,and 22.2％ of substance abuse; these were all significantly higher than those of the Sichuan control group.Moreover,63.7％ of Hunan-violent,55.6％ of Sichuan-violent,and 45.0％ of Hunannonviolent offenders had a previous offence records.Conclusion:Mental and behavioral disorders among delinquent youth is becoming a serious problem,and there is an urgent need to develop and implement effective assessment and treatment approaches for juvenile offenders with the aim of reducing offence and recidivism in this population.

Objective To explore the CT features of renal epithelioid angiomyolipoma (EAML), and to improve the diagnosis of this disease.Methods The clinical materials and image findings of 15 cases (8 female, 7 male) with renal EAML proved by pathologies were retrospectively studied.Plain and enhancement CT scan were performed in all 15 patients.Nine of the 15 cases were correctly diagnosed and the other were misdiagnosed as renal cell carcinoma (RCC) (n=5), renal oncocytoma (n=1).Results There were some distinctive findings of EAML: (1) Little hypodense or iso-high-density, well defined, round lesion with diameter of 2 to 5 cm.(2) The tumor may involve the medulla of kidney or grow out without haematuria.(3) Most lesions showed obviously uniformity enhancement at artery phase, with a few of them showed inhomogeneous enhancement There were thickening and circuitous vessels in a few lesions.(4) Enhancement mode was quick-in and quick-out.Conclusions CT findings combined with clinical materials have important value in making a correct diagnosis of EAML preoperatively.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment methods of traumatic renal infarction.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 6 cases of traumatic renal infarction treated between September 2008 and February 2013.There were 5 males and 1 female,at age of 5-65 years (average,36.2 years).Causes of injury included vehicle collisions in 4 cases and high falls in 2.Out of 6 cases,segmental renal infarction was identified in 2 and total infarction in 4.According to American Association for the surgery of trauma renal trauma grading system,2 cases were classified to grade Ⅳ and 4 to grade Ⅴ.Results Three cases were managed conservatively,which showed segmental infarction in 1 case and total infarction in 2.Three cases underwent surgical exploration,followed by partial nephrectomy in 1 case,left kidney removal plus partial pancreectomy in 1 and right kidney removal in 1.There were no major complications intraoperatively or postoperatively and no cases received blood transfusion.Period of follow-up was 3-34 months.In conservative management,there were no renal atrophies in segmental renal infarction cases and some degree of atrophies in total renal infarction cases,but none presented with arterial hypertension.Conclusions Enhanced CT is the preferred diagnostic tool for evaluation of traumatic renal infarction.Conservative therapy is the optimal option for most cases,but nephrectomy is reserved for cases of infection or renal hypertension.

Preoperative serum specimens were collected from 249 endometrial cancers and 99 uterine leiomyomas and their concentrations of human epididymis protein 4 (HE4),CA 125 and CA 19-9 were detected.The indices of diagnostic evaluation were calculated.Preoperative serum concentrations of HE4,CA125 and CA19-9 in endometrial carcinoma group were significantly higher than those of control group.The areas under curve of HE4,CA125 and CA19-9 were 0.736,0.615 and 0.661 respectively and that of combiued markers was 0.774.At a 90％ specificity,the sensitivities for HE4,CA125,CA19-9 were 55.0％,26.9％ and 30.1％ while that of combined markers was 56.2％.HE4 is an ideal tumor marker for endometrial cancer and combined detection improves diagnostic rate.

Objective To discuss the effectiveness of anterolateral thigh propeller flaps for treatment of inguinal skin and soft tissue defects.Methods From June,2009 to October,2014,12 patients with inguinal skin and soft tissue defects were treated with anterolateral thigh propeller flaps pedicled with perforator of descending branch of lateral circumflex femoral artery.Of them there were 8 males and 4 females,aged from 22 to 51 years.The left side was involved in 3 cases and right side 9 cases.Defects were caused by traffic accident injury in 5 cases,crash injury of heavy object in 7 cases.There were mere skin and soft tissue in 2 cases,combined with bone fractures,nerves,vessels and muscles injury in 10 cases.The area of defects ranged from 9.0 cm×5.0 cm to 22.0 cm×9.0 cm.During operation,anterolateral thigh propeller flaps ranging from 11.0 cm×7.0 cm to 24.0 cm×1 1.0 cm were used to repair the wounds.Results All flaps and skingrafts survived after operation and the wounds obtained primary healing.After 8-24 months follow-up,all flaps were characterized by soft texture,good color,and satisfactory appearance.According to the Britain's Medical Research Council at 8 months after operation,the sensation of the flaps were recovered to S2 ～ S3+,No obvious scar contracture and chromatosis were observed at donor site.Conclusion Anterolateral thigh propeller flaps pedicled with artery descending branch of lateral circumflex femoral perforator is an ideal choice for the reconstruction for inguinal skin and soft tissue defects.
