Objective To explore relations between pseudo vascular invasion (PVI) and laparoscopic operation in patients with stage Ⅰa endometrial carcinoma. Methods Details of stage Ⅰa endometrial carcinoma patients′ clinical information and pathological sections who received operation treatment between January 2008 and October 2015 were obtained from the Dalian Maternal and Child Health Hospital. There were 515 cases entrolled into this study, including 332 (64.5%) cases performed surgery by laparoscopy and 183 (35.5%) cases undergone abdominal surgery. The vascular invasion rate and the microscopic manifestations of PVI in two groups were retrospectively compared and analyzed. The follow-up period ended February 2017, the adjuvant treatment and prognosis of patients with lympho-vascular space invasion (LVSI) and PVI were analysed. Results (1) Seventy-five of 515 cases with stage Ⅰa endometrial carcinoma, there were seven-five cases found with tumor cells in lympho-vascular space, including 52 cases of LVSI and 25 cases of PVI (2 cases of both). The incidence of cancer emboli in lympho-vascular space and LVSI in laparoscopic group and laparotomy group were respectively 15.4%(51/332) vs 13.1%(24/183) and 9.6%(32/332) vs 10.9%(20/183), there were no significant differences (all P>0.05). But the rate of PVI between the two group was significantly different [6.3% (21/332) vs 2.2%(4/183), P=0.036], laparoscopic group was higher than that in laparotomy group. (2) Of 332 cases in laparoscopic group, 21 cases was found PVI, containing 8 cases showed tumor tissue with mesenchyme or papillary structures located in large thick wall vessels of the outer lateral myometrium, 13 cases showed the tumor tissue was away from the vessel wall. Among 183 cases in laparotomy group, 3 cases with PVI which the tumor tissue was away from the vessel wall, and 1 with interstitial tissue. (3) During the follow-up period, 7 of 75 cases (both LVSI and PVI) were lost, and 66 cases were relapse-free survival, 2 cases recurred at fifth months and died respectively at 7, 20 months after the operation. This 2 cases were both PVI of laparoscopic group, and the pathological type was endometrioid adenocarcinoma grade 3, and adjuvant treatment was not accepted after the operation. The relapse-free survival with LVSI was 49 months and 46 months for cases with PVI. Conclusions Laparoscopic operation could increase PVI in patients with stageⅠa endometrial carcinoma, while does not increase LVSI. It is not yet possible to demonstrate that PVI affects the prognosis of patients.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of peripheral blood circulating tumor cells (CTC) and serum pepsinogen (PG) I for early gastric cancer (EGC).Methods:A case-control study was conducted utilizing the clinical data of 102 patients with gastric mucosal lesions treated at Shaanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital between January 2021 and December 2022. Based on the diagnostic outcomes, these patients were categorized into a benign lesion group ( n = 54) and an EGC group ( n = 48). Patient demographics were compared between the two groups. Additionally, CTC and PG I-positive rates were compared between the two groups. The diagnostic effectiveness of CTC and serum PG I alone in identifying EGC was evaluated. Independent factors influencing EGC diagnosis were analyzed, and the predictive diagnostic value of CTC and serum PG I for EGC was calculated. Results:There was no statistically significant difference in gender and age between the two groups (both P > 0.05). The positivity rates of CTC and serum PG I in the EGC group were 79.17% (38/48) and 70.83% (34/48), respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the benign lesion group [14.81% (8/54), 20.37% (11/54), χ2 = 42.50, 26.25, both P < 0.001]. The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of CTC and serum PG I alone did not show statistically significant differences in diagnosing EGC (all P > 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that CTC and serum PG I positivity were independent risk factors for EGC ( OR = 20.20, 8.57, both P < 0.05). Using CTC, serum PG I, and the P-value prediction probability derived from the logistic regression model, the Jordan indices for predicting the diagnosis of EGC were 0.643, 0.504, and 0.633, respectively. Conclusion:The combination of CTC and PG I is highly significant for the diagnosis of EGC, and two detection methods are crucial for accurate risk assessment of EGC.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the molecular basis for a Chinese family affected with neurofibromatosis type I.
METHODS:
Peripheral blood samples were collected from the proband and his parents. Potential mutations of NF1 gene were screened by PCR and Sanger sequencing. Pathogenicity of candidate mutations was analyzed using Polyphen-2 and Provean software.
RESULTS:
Two mutations of the NF1 gene, including c.702G>A (synonymous mutation) and c.1733T>G (missense mutation), were discovered in the proband. Neither mutation was found in his parents and 50 healthy controls. Bioinformatics analysis indicated that the c.1733T>G mutation (p.Leu578Arg) was probably damaging. The affected codon L578 is highly conserved across various species.
CONCLUSION
The c.1733T>C mutation of the NF1 gene probably underlies the neurofibromatosis type I in this family.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of training assisted by a lower limb rehabilitation robot on the bladder and intestinal function of paraplegic spinal cord injury survivors. Methods Thirty-eight paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury were divided according to their admission order into an experimental group ( n=19) and a control group (n=19). Both groups were given conventional rehabilitation training, while the experimental group was additionally provided with robot-assisted lower limb training in three stages:adaptation, training and con-solidation. It lasted 30 minutes daily, 5 days per week for 12 weeks. Before and after the training, an urodynamics examination system was used to evaluate the maximum urine flow, bladder capacity, residual urine volume, bladder pressure and detrusor pressure. Colon transit time, mean rectal pressure and intestinal function were measured using the colon transit test, a mean rectal pressure test, and the Functional Independence Measure ( FIM) scale respective-ly. Results The average bladder volume, maximum urine flow rate, average urine flow rate, detrusor pressure, bladder compliance, average rectal pressure and intestinal FIM score of the robot training group after training were all significantly better than before the training, as were the average residual urine volume and colon transit time. After the training, the average bladder volume, maximum urine flow rate, average urine flow rate, detrusor pressure, bladder compliance and average rectal pressure of the robot training group were all significantly higher than those of the control group, while the average residual urine volume and colon transit time were significantly smaller. Then, 32% of the patients in the experimental group achieved no less than 6 points for their average FIM score, significantly higher than in the control group. Conclusion Robot-assisted lower limb training combined with comprehensive rehabilitation training can effectively improve the bladder and intestinal function of paraplegic patients after a spinal cord injury.

Objective:To investigate the value of CT findings of childhood hepatoblastoma (HB) in predicting preoperative tumor risk stratification.Methods:Totally 46 children with HB confirmed by surgery and pathology were retrospectively enrolled from October 2010 to October 2019 in Shenzhen Children′s Hospital and Xuzhou Children′s Hospital. The preoperative abdominal plain CT and three-phasic contrast-enhanced CT with complete clinical files were evaluated. According to the clinical risk stratification established by the multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment consensus for children with HB, the HB children were divided into high-risk group and non-high-risk group with 16 and 30 cases respectively. The maximum diameter of tumor, relative tumor volume index, cystic change or necrosis, bleeding, calcification, fibrous septations, tumor rupture, liver capsule retraction and subcapsular effusion were evaluated. Enhancement percentage and enhancement index on arterial, venous and delayed phases of each tumor were measured and calculated. Pearson′s χ 2 test or Fisher′s exact test were used to compare the differences in gender and lesion morphological characteristics between the high-risk group and the non-high-risk group. Two independent sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare the differences in age, gestational age, birth weight, α-fetoprotein, platelets, maximum diameter of tumor, relative tumor volume index and CT parameters of the lesion between the two groups. Statistically significant features were included in the binary logistic regression analysis and independent predictors related to high-risk group were obtained. The ROC curve was used to determine the critical value of the high-risk group. Results:There were statistically significant differences in age, maximum diameter of tumor, relative tumor volume index and tumor rupture between the high-risk group and the non-high-risk group (all P<0.05). The logistic regression analysis showed that the maximum diameter of tumor (OR=1.906, P=0.004) and tumor rupture (OR=16.558, P=0.005) were risk factors of the high-risk group. Based on ROC curve, the optimum cut-off point of maximum diameter of tumor to predict high-risk group was 10.5 cm. Tumor rupture, maximum diameter of tumor and maximum diameter of tumor combined with tumor rupture for predicting the incidence of high-risk group resulted in the area under the curve of 0.744, 0.807 and 0.879, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of maximum diameter of tumor combined with tumor rupture were 75.0% and 96.7%, respectively. Conclusion:The age of onset in high-risk group is relatively older. The maximum diameter of tumor greater than 10.5 cm accompanied by tumor rupture can be regarded as a high-risk sign.

Objective:To investigate the prognostic value of colony forming unit-granulocyte and macrophage (CFU-GM) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).Methods:Seventy-three patients who received allo-HSCT in Hebei Yanda Lu Daopei Hospital from February 2015 to January 2017 were selected. According to the level of CFU-GM from bone marrow (BM) culture at the time of allo-HSCT, the patients were fit into high CFU-GM group and low CFU-GM group. The overall survival rate (OS) and relapse-free mortality rate (NRM) of patients after transplantation were tested by χ2 test after a follow-up of 37.0 (12.5, 50.5) months. Kaplan-Meier method was used to compare OS and event-free survival (EFS) of patients with different CFU-GM levels. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the prognostic factors. Cox regression model was used to further analyze the prognostic risk of patients.Results:Compared with the low CFU-GM group, the high CFU-GM group had a higher OS (81.40% vs 60.00%, χ2=4.067, P=0.044) and a lower NRM (11.63% vs 36.67%, χ2=6.474, P=0.011). Compared with the low CFU-GM group, the mean OS time (57.6 and 37.1 months, respectively, P=0.039) and the mean EFS time (61.7 and 38.5 months, respectively, P=0.011) were significantly higher in the high CFU-GM group. Logistic regression analysis showed that both the level of CFU-GM and BM MNC were significant influencing factors of OS ( OR=2.917, 95% CI 1.011-8.418, P=0.048 and OR=1.510, 95% CI 1.058-2.154, P=0.023, respectively) and EFS ( OR=4.400, 95% CI 1.336-14.492, P=0.015 and OR=1.447, 95% CI 1.002-2.090, P=0.049, respectively)after transplantation. The level of CFU-GM was an independent risk factor for evaluating EFS ( HR=0.279, 95% CI 0.097-0.805, P=0.018). BM MNC was an independent risk factor for OS ( HR=1.345, 95% CI 1.052-1.720, P=0.018). Conclusion:The level of CFU-GM and BM MNC were related to the prognosis of allo-HSCT. The patients in the high CFU-GM group had higher EFS.
