Objective SGA and IURG fetuses are important risk factors for metabolic disease in adulthood,but the mechanism is not clear.In this study,Irisin levels in umbilical cord blood of different birth weight and IURG neonates were measured and the relationship between Irisin and neonatal weight,gestational age and other factors was explored.Methods This study was conducted in the cross-sectional study of neonates born in our hospital from 2014 to 2016.Newborns were divided into small-for-gestational age (SGA),greater-than-gestational age (LGA),gestational age (AGA) and newborns with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR).The levels of irisin in umbilical cord blood of 4 newborns were detected.Results In this study,there were a total of 110 cases of newborns.The mean gestational age and mean birth weight of newborns in the SGA group was lower than that in the other three groups(P =0.000).The mean Irisin levels in the SGA and IUGR groups [54.4(45.6-66.7) ng/ml,53.7 (40.3-62.4) ng/ml] were significantly lower than those in the AGA group [67.7 (53.8-78.1) ng/ml,64.7 (53.6-71.2) ng/ml] (P =0.000).The mean insulin levels in the LGA group [7.54(0.83-58.96)mIU/ml] were significantly higher than those in the AGA group [38.00(34.40-39.30)mIU/ml] and IU-GR [3.86(0.49-16.15)] and SGA [4.19 (0.62-14.42)mIU/ml] (P =0.000).In the present study,the correlation analysis showed that Irisin level in neonatal umbilical cord blood was significantly correlated with neonatal gestational age (r =0.22,P < 0.01),fetal weight (r =0.17,P <0.01) and maternal age (r =-0.12,P =0.021).However,only in the LGA group,the level of Irisin in cord blood of neonates was positively correlated with insulin level (r =0.41,P =0.042).Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that SGA (β =-0.14,P =0.02) and fetal weight (β =0.05,P =0.008) were independent risk factors for neonatal umbilical cord blood Irisin levels.Conclusion There was a positive correlation between irisin level and neonatal umbilical cord blood birth weight.The levels of irisin in the neonates of the SGA and IURG groups were significantly lower than those of the AGA and LGA groups,but irisin levels did not differ between the SGA and IURG groups and between AGA and LGA groups.And irisin levels in the LGA group were positively correlated with insulin levels.Our results also reveal that singleton infants of mothers with preeclampsia had lower cord blood irisin levels compared to infants of mothers without preeclampsia.

Objective:
To study the impact to operation safety of preoperative renal artery embolization for management of ≥10 cm renal cell carcinoma.
Methods:
The clinical data of 239 cases with ≥10 cm renal cell carcinoma which all had underwent operation in Department of Urology, Peking University First Hospital from January 2002 to December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Fifty-three patients underwent preoperative renal artery embolization (therapeutic group) and 186 patients did not (control group). The effect of embolization on operative time, transfusion requirements, hospitalization, ICU stay and perioperative complications were analyzed by comparing the two groups using rank sum test and χ2 test or Fisher exact test.
Results:
Comparing the therapeutic group and control group, there was significant difference in tumor location (on the left or right). The mean age, sex, mean primary tumor size, and TNM stage were similar in both groups. Comparing the therapeutic group and control group, there were more open surgeries in therapeutic group (96.2%

Objective:
To investigate the clinical features and prognosis of rare subtypes of renal cell carcinoma.
Methods:
This retrospective study collected the data of 52 rare subtypes of renal cell carcinoma of patients who underwent surgery from January 2002 to December 2014 at Department of Urology, Peking University First Hospital. There were 12 patients with collecting duct carcinoma, 5 patients with Xp11.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma, 5 patients with mucinous tubular and spindle cell carcinoma, 30 patients with unclassified renal cell carcinoma. The study group included 25 male and 27 female patients, with mean age of 52 years. The mean tumour size was (6.5±3.9) cm (range: 1.5 to 21.0 cm). The basic clinical features, gross appearance, Fuhrman nuclear grade, TNM staging and prognosis of rare subtypes of RCC were studied. The OS curves were obtained for rare subtypes of renal cell carcinoma using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using a Log-rank test.
Results:
The rate of lymph node and distant metastasis were 34.6% (18/52) and 17.3% (9/52). Malignancies were screened and detected by color Doppler ultrasonography or CT scan, however, no case was diagnosed before operation or aspiration, all cases were confirmed by the pathological examination. The average period of postoperative follow-up process was 65 months, and the mean survival time was (34±23) months.
Conclusion
The clinical features of rare subtypes of renal cell carcinoma are similar to those of clear cell renal cell carcinoma, while the imaging changes will be helpful for diagnosis before operation.

Objective:
To study the clinical characteristics, image findings, therapeutic method and prognosis of metanephric adenoma.
Method:
The clinical characteristic, image findings, operation methods and prognosis of 16 metanephric adenoma patients treated at Department of Urology, Peking University First Hospital from January 2004 to March 2016 were analyzed retrospectively.
Results:
There were 6 male and 10 female patients in the study. The mean age of patients was 33.7 years (ranging from 14 to 83 years). Two patients came to the hospital because of fever, while other 14 patients had no symptoms and found renal tumor by medical examination. One case was found polythemia vera and another 1 case showed mild anemia. Serum creatine of all the cases were in normal range. The tumor of 11 cases were at left side and 5 cases were at right. All patients took urinary tract ultrasound. Fifteen patients took CT examination. Among them, 14 cases were solid mass and 1 case was cystosolid.CT value was (41±4) HU. CT scan showed that the tumor was slight enhanced and CT value increased to (77±9) HU. Six patients took MRI examination. The MRI showed high or low signal of T1WI or T2WI scans.Tumor size was (4.7±3.9)cm (ranging from 1.7 to 17.5 cm). All 16 patients took operation and 11 of them took laparoscopic surgery while the other 5 cases took open surgery. Eleven cases took partial nephrectomy, 4 cases took nephrectomy and 1 case took nephroureterectomy. The surgical procedures were all successful and no complications occured during perioperative period. All cases were all confirmed metanephric adenoma by postoperative pathology and surgery cut edge were all negative. Immunohistochemical study showed that the positive rate of Vimentin, CD57, AE1/AE3, WT1, CK7 and AMACR respectively were 16/16, 15/16, 12/16, 10/16, 3/16 and 2/16. The median follow-up time of 16 cases was 44 months (ranging from 8 to 125 months) and none had recurrence or metastasis.One case died 125 months after surgery because of advanced age(83 years old).
Conclusions
Metanephric adenoma is difficult to be diagnosed relying on clinical characteristics and image features. Pathology can help confirm the diagnosis. Partial nephrectomy is the first choice for operation and can achieve good prognosis. But it still needs a regular follow-up.
