Objective To discuss the features,such as clinical symptoms,pathologic morphologies,immunohistochemical staining of minimal deviation adenocarcinoma and microglandular hyperplasia of the uterine cervix in order to improve the accuracy of pathological diagnosis.Methods s:Histopathologic characteristics of total hysterectomies in 2 cases of minimal deviation adenocarcinoma and 1 case of cervical microglandular hyperplasia based on the formalin-fixed,paralfin-embedded and hematoxylin-eosin stained tissue were analyzed retrospectively.Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of CEA,p53,PCNA,and Ki-67 in all 3 cases.Results The main clinical symptoms of minimal deviation adenocarcinoma were watery leucorrhea and enlargement of the cervix.The pathological findings of MDA included hyperplasia of the glands with cytological minimal atypia,invasion effects into the stroma could be observed in some glands and abortive glands with desmoplastic changes,or edema and inflammatory infiltration around the glands were also observed.The invasion presented in the deep part of the cervix as well.The patiant of MGH had a history of oval contraceptive use.Histological features of MGH included tightly packed glands in different sizes and shapes,presentation of inflammatory cells in stroma and glandular lumens,and focal epithelial cell pleomorphism and hyperchromatism but without mitosis.CEA was positive in all two MDA cases,but the tissue of MGH was negative for CEA.The expressions of the other four markers had no difference between MDA and MGH.Conclusions For patients with watery discharge and/or hypertrophy of cervix,the deep ( ＞ 5 mm ) biopsies should be performed.The immunohistochemical staining for CEA,p53,CA125 and ER has adjuvant diagnostic values.It is extremely important to recognize that MGH is an entirely benign lesion.

Objective T o observe the changes of cystathionine β-synthase (C B S ) expression in the cere-bral cortex after brain contusion at different tim es. Methods A n experim ental m odel of traum atic brain injury (T B I) in m ice w as established by an im proved w eight-drop device. T hen W estern blotting and im m unohistochem ical exam ination w ere used to detect the C B S expression in cerebral cortex around in-jury at different tim e points (1 h, 6 h, 12 h, 1 d, 2 d, 3 d, 7 d). Results T he results of W estern blotting revealed that the expression level of C B S w as dow n-regulated and reached its low est level at the 3rd days after injury, and then restored to norm al level after 7 days. T he results of im m unohistochem istry show ed that C B S w as present in the norm al brain cortex. C B S expression gradually decreased at the 3rd days after injury, and then restored to norm al level after 7 days. Conclusion C B S has the potential to be a reference index for tim e estim ation after brain contusion in forensic practice.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of irisin on ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) in rats and the relationship with expression of NOD-like receptor pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasomes.Methods:Thirty-six SPF-grade healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 220-300 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=12 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), group VILI and irisin group (group I). All the groups underwent tracheotomy and intubation, group C kept spontaneous breathing for 4 h, and the animals were mechanically ventilated for 4 h in VILI and I groups.Irisin 1 μg/kg was injected via the tail vein at 30 min before tracheal intubation in group I, and the equal volume of normal saline mixture (normal saline∶phosphate buffer solution containing 5% trehalose=1∶9) were given in the other 2 groups via the tail vein.The rats were mechanically ventilated with the tidal volume of 20 ml/kg, respiratory rate 80 breaths/min, inspiratory/expiratory ratio 1∶1, inspired oxygen fraction ratio 21% and positive end-expiratory pressure 0.Blood samples from left femoral artery were collected before tracheal intubation and at the end of mechanical ventilation for detection of PaO 2.The animals were sacrificed and the lung tissue samples and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were then collected for examination of the pathological changes (under the light microscope), and for determination of wet to dry weight (W/D) ratio and the concentrations of total protein in BALF and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-18 in BALF and serum (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in alveolar macrophages in BALF (by DCFH-DA) and the expression of NLRP3, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (ASC) and caspase-1 protein and mRNA in lung tissues (by Western blot and by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction). The pathological changes of the lung were scored. Results:Compared with group C, PaO 2 was significantly decreased at the end of mechanical ventilation, lung injury score and W/D ratio were increased, concentration of total protein and ROS level in alveolar macrophages in BALF and concentrations of BALF, IL-1β and IL-18 in serum were increased, and the expression of NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 protein and mRNA in lung tissues was up-regulated in group VILI and group I ( P<0.01). Compared with group VILI, PaO 2 was significantly increased at the end of mechanical ventilation, lung injury score and W/D ratio were decreased, concentration of total protein and ROS level in alveolar macrophages in BALF and concentrations of BALF, IL-1β and IL-18 in serum were decreased, and the expression of NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 protein and mRNA in lung tissues was down-regulated in group I ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Irisin can reduce VILI, and the mechanism is related to inhibiting activation of NLRP3 inflammasome and reducing inflammatory response in rats.

Hip surgery is often associated with moderate to severe postoperative pain due to exten-sive invasion.A safe and effective postoperative pain treatment can promote patients'recovering activities and facilitate the early functional recovery of the hip after the surgery.Although the routinely used intrave-nous self-controlled analgesia has an exquisite analgesic effect,it carries the risks of postoperative nausea and emesis,excessive sedation,intestinal paralysis,and even respiratory depression.As an alternative to transversus abdominis plane block(TAPB),lumbar quadratus block(QLB)has been gradually applied to the hip joint surgery.In this paper,we review the anatomical basis and characteristics of QLB and its clini-cal application in hip surgery,in order to provide the postoperative analgesia application of QLB.

Objective:To explore the role of the multidimensional therapy in postpartum rehabilitation. Method:150 patients meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into the control group and the exper-imental group.The control group received routine postpartum rehabilitation education and guidance,while the experimental group received the postpartum rehabilitation multidimensional therapy(PRMT)on this basis.The postpartum weight retention,posture change,body fat distribution,pelvic floor muscle surface voltage,inter-recti distance(IRD)and the scores of incontinence quality of life questionnaire(I-QOL),pelvic floor impact questionnaire short form(PFIQ-7)and Edinburgh postnatal depression scale(EPDS)were respectively mea-sured to observe the effect of intervention.Satisfaction with the PRMT was investigated by self-made question-naire before and after intervention. Result:The body weight(BW),waist circumference(WC),body mass index(BMI)and waist-hip ratio(WHR)of the experimental group were significantly reduced after 40 days intervention(P＜0.01),and the BMI,WC and WHR were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.01);the percentage body fat(PBF),body fat mass(BFM),visceral fat area(VFA)and fat mass index(FMI)were significantly reduced(P＜0.01)in the experimental group,PBF,BFM and FMI were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05);the pelvic floor type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ muscle fiber voltage,assessment total score,I-QOL score were significantly increased(P＜0.01)and PFIQ-7 score were significantly decreased(P＜0.01)in the experimen-tal group,and the pelvic floor type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ muscle fiber voltage,assessment total score and I-QOL score were significantly higher than those in control group(P＜0.05).The IRD of parturients in the resting and flexion state of experimental groups was significantly reduced,with significant difference compared with before intervention(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).In addition,the IRD of the upper umbilical margin and the lower um-bilical margin at resting state and the lower umbilical margin at flexion state were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).After intervention,the EPDS in the experimental group were significantly decreased(P＜0.01),and the improvement were significantly better than the control group(P＜0.05).The 57 parturients in the experimental group completed the satisfaction questionnaire,about 80％of them were satis-fied with the PRMT process and considered that the PRMT improved their willingness to have a second or third child. Conclusion:PRMT was effective in improving the postpartum weight retention,posture change,body fat dis-tribution,pelvic floor function injury,diastasis recti abdominis(DRA)and postpartum psychological depression.

This study reviewed the pattern of malocclusion among orthodontic patients in East Coast of Sabah and the type of treatment indicated for the patients. A total of 138 pre-treatment orthodontic records of patients who attended the orthodontic consultation clinic in year 2018 were included in this cross-sectional retrospective study. Data taken were demographic data, source of referral, BSI (British Standards Institutes) incisor classification, skeletal pattern, and type of treatment. All data were analysed descriptively using Stata 15. Based on the results, mean age of the patients was 16.89 ± 0.37 years. More females sought orthodontic treatment (n=101, 73.19%) than males. Majority of the patients were Chinese (n=68, 49.28%) and Bumiputera Sabah (n=55, 39.86%). Main source of referral was from dental officers (n=128, 92.75%). The distribution of malocclusion showed high percentage of Class II Division 1 (n=56, 40.58%), followed by Class III (n=45, 32.61%), Class I (n=34, 24.64%) and Class II Division 2 (n=3, 2.17%). For skeletal pattern, more patients presented with Class II (n=54, 39.13%), while the number of patients presented with Class I and Class III were equal (n=42, 30.43%). Class III malocclusion (n=29, 42.65%) and Class III skeletal pattern (n=29, 42.65%) were more common in Chinese patients. Treatment indicated was mostly fixed orthodontic appliance (n=120, 86.96%). In conclusion, Class II Division 1 malocclusion and Class II skeletal pattern were most common among the patients. Class III malocclusion and Class III skeletal pattern were typical features among the Chinese patients. Fixed orthodontic appliance was the most common treatment method.
