Objective:To summarize the preliminary experience of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation(RFA) in the treatment of early breast cancer(the length of the lesion<15 mm) with negative sentinel lymph node(SLN), and to evaluate its feasibility and efficacy.Methods:From October 2016 to November 2019, 18 patients with early breast cancer(the length of the lesion<15 mm) treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University underwent FNAC of axillary SLN under the guidance of CEUS were enrolled. Patients with pathologically negative axillary SLN were treated with percutaneous RFA of breast cancer. The complete ablation rate and the relapse rate were evaluated. Intraoperative pain, postoperative complications and postoperative patient satisfaction were analyzed.Results:Eighteen patients underwent CEUS-guided FNAC of SLN, of which 1 case was positive and 17 cases were negative. Seventeen breast cancer lesions of the 17 negative patients underwent percutaneous RFA. The length of the lesions was 3.3-14.0 (8.2±3.9)mm, the complete ablation rate was 100%, the ablation time was 9-18 (12.8±2.7)min. During the follow-up of 9-46 months, no patient developed tumor progression. There were no serious complications related to RFA after operation. The patients′ satisfactory rate for postoperative appearance was 100%.Conclusions:RFA of early breast cancer(the length of the lesion<15 mm) with negative SLN is feasible and has the advantages of safety, minimal invasion and beauty.

Objective To investigate the biomechanicai characteristics of flexor profundus tendons repaired after decimeter wave therapy, and to observe the effect of decimeter wave therapy on early active mobilization. Methods A total of 56 Leghorn chickens were randomly divided into a therapy group and a control group with 28 chickens in each. The 3rd and 4th toes of their left feet were employed for the establishment of a tendon injury model. The flexor profundus tendons were cut and repaired. Gypsum support was applied and fixed with an adhesive plaster after the operation. The operated sites on toes Ⅲ and Ⅳ were exposed. The external fixation was removed 3 weeks later and the chickens were left free to move. Decimeter wave therapy ( frequency 915 MHz, power 8 Watts) was ap-plied for 10 minutes once daily on the left foot of each chicken in the therapy group from day 1 until 3 weeks after the operation. Sham decimeter wave therapy was applied to chickens in the control group. Four chickens from each group were randomly selected at the 1st, 7th, 10th, 14th, 18th, 21st and 28th days for biomechanical analysis. Biome-chanical parameters including tensile strength of rupture (Pmax), elongation ratio at rupture (δimax) and the tensile adhesion strength of the rupture zone (W0>) were observed at each time point. Results At the 7th, 10th, 14th, 18th, 21st and 28th day after the operation, the differences in Pmax, δmax and W0 between the therapy and control groups were statistically significant. The results of the therapy group were better than those of the control group. Conclusions Local decimeter wave therapy after flexor tendon repair can promote intrinsic healing and reduce ex-trinsic healing. The speed and quality of healing are improved. The elasticity and tenacity of the injured tendons are enhanced. Therefore decimeter wave therapy is helpful for early active mobilization training.

To investigate the features of various hepatitis virus infection in intravenous drug users (IVDU), we conducted an epidemiological survey of hepatitis viruses including hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), hepatitis D virus (HDV) and hepatitis G virus (HGV) in IVDU. The correlation of TH lymphocyte cytokine and hepatitis virus infection was examined. A study population of 406 IVDU consisted of 383 males and 23 females. HBV-DNA and HCV-RNA were detected by fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction. HBsAg, HBeAg, anti-HBc, anti-HCV, HDV-Ag and anti-HGV were assayed by ELISA. The levels of cytokines of TH1 and TH2 were measured by ELISA. The similar indices taken from 102 healthy persons served as controls. The infection rate of each virus among IVDU was 36.45 % for HBV, 69.7 % for HCV, 2.22 % for HDV, and 1.97 % for HGV, respectively. The co-infection rate of HBV and HCV was detected in 113 of 406 (27.83 %). In contrast, among controls, the infection rate was 17.65 % for HBV and 0 % for the other hepatitis viruses. The levels of PHA-induced cytokines (IFN-gamma and IL-4) and the level of serum IL-2 were obviously decreased in IVDU. On the other hand, the level of serum IL-4 was increased. The IFN-gamma level was continuously decreased when the IVDU was infected with HBV/HCV. In conclusion, HBV and HCV infection were common in this population of IVDU and they had led to a high incidence of impaired TH1 cytokine levels.
