Objective To analyze the clinical results and risk factors according to cause-specific survival and local recurrence rates for the patients with Ⅰ-Ⅱstage breast cancer after breast conservative therapy(BCT).Methods During Jun.1988 to Jun.2005,304 patients with Ⅰ-Ⅱstage breast cancer in the General Hospital of PLA underwent lumpectomy,axillary lymph node dissection and definitive irradiation.All patients received adjuvant chemotherapy.The patients with positive estrogen hormone receptors received orally tamoxifen administration.The median follow up was 8.1 years.Results For all the patients,the total 5-year survival rate,cause-specific survival rate and local recurrence-free survival rate were 92.58%,93.46% and 86.26%,respectively.And the total 10-year overall survival rate,cause-specific survival rate and local recurrence-free survival rate were 85.29%,88.27% and 77.75%,respectively.The 5-year and 10-year local recurrence rates were 5.5% and 11.7%,respectively.The univariate and mutivariate analyses revealed that the age(4)were the risk factors according to cause-specific survival rates.The age(

Tinnitus is a common clinical symptom and its occurrence rate is high. It seriously affects life quality of the patients. Scientific researches show that listening some similar and none-repetitive music can relieve tinnitus to some extent. The overall music accorded with self-similarity character by the direct mapping method based on chaos. However, there were often the same tones continuous repeating a few times and tone mutations. To solve the problem, this paper proposes a new method for tinnitus rehabilitation sound synthesis based on pentatonic scale, chaos and musical instrument digital interface (MIDI). Experimental results showed that the tinnitus rehabilitation sounds were not only self-similar and incompletely reduplicate, but also no sudden changes. Thus, it has a referential significance for tinnitus treatment.

The roots of Glycyrrhiza uralensis are widely used in Chinese medicine for their action of clearing heat, detoxicating, relieving cough, dispelling sputum and tonifying spleen and stomach. The reason why Glycyrrhiza uralensis has potent and significant actions is that it contains various active secondary metabolites, especially glycyrrhizic acid. In the present study, we cloned the cDNA coding 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutary CoA reductase (HMGR) involved in glycyrrhizic acid biosynthesis in Glycyrrhiza uralensis. The corresponding cDNA was expressed in Escherichia coli as fusion proteins. Recombinant HMGR exhibited catalysis activity in reduction of HMG-CoA to mevalonic acid (MVA) just as HMGR isolated from other species. Because HMGR gene is very important in the biosynthesis of glycyrrhizic acid in Glycyrrhiza uralensis, this work is significant for further studies concerned with strengthening the efficacy of Glycyrrhiza uralensis by means of increasing glycyrrhizic acid content and exploring the biosynthesis of glycyrrhizic acid in vitro.

Objective:To discover the epidemiological characteristics and clinical manifestations of Nontyphoidal Salmonella(NTS) infection in children suffering from diarrhea in Guangzhou, and to provide references for the prevention and treatment of salmonella infection. Methods:A total of 570 diarrhea children and 296 non-diarrhea controls were collected with stratified sampling from three districts of Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center from January 2019 to December 2019. Through bacterial culture, corresponding colonies were selected and Salmonella diagnostic serum was applied for preliminary serum diagnosis, and then systemic biochemical method was adopted for diagnosis. A structured questionnaire was conducted to record the demographic information and clinical symptoms from each subject. Results:The detection rate of NTS was 6.67% (38/570 cases, 95% CI: 4.90%-9.02%) in children with diarrhea, and 1.01% (3/296 cases, 95% CI: 0.34%-2.93%) in children without diarrhea. There were statistically differences in NTS detection rate between children with diarrhea and the control ( χ2=13.805, P<0.05, OR=6.976, 95% CI: 2.135-22.796). There were no significant differences in NTS detection rate between male and female children with diarrhea ( χ2=0.395, P>0.05, OR=1.254, 95% CI: 0.619-2.541). The detection rate of NTS was 5.30% (22/416 cases, 95% CI: 3.52%-7.88%) in children younger than 2 years old, and was 10.40% (16/154 cases, 95% CI: 6.50%-15.21%) in children over 2 years old. There were statistically differences ( χ2=4.700, P<0.05, OR=2.076, 95% CI: 1.060-4.068) between the younger and the older groups.The detection rate of NTS was 5.40% (25/460 cases, 95% CI: 3.70%-7.89%) for children with diarrhea in outpatient department and 11.80% (13/110 cases, 95% CI: 7.04 %-19.18%) for children with diarrhea in inpatient department, with statistically significant differences ( χ2=5.813, P<0.05, OR=2.332, 95% CI: 1.152-4.721). The detection rate of NTS diarrhea in children was 4.60% (10/217 cases, 95% CI: 2.52%-8.28%) in spring, 8.50% (12/141 cases, 95% CI: 4.93%-14.29%) in summer, 9.60% (15/144 cases, 95% CI: 6.41%-16.48%) in autumn and 1.50% (1/168 cases, 95% CI: 0.11%-3.30%) in winter, respectively, with statistically differences among the four seasons( χ2=9.404, P<0.05). There were significant differences in most common clinical symptoms of fever, vomiting, abdominal pain, bloody stool and pasty stool between NTS positive and negative children(all P<0.05). Salmonella enteritis is the main type, and Salmonella typhimurium is the second type. Conclusions:NTS is one of the most important bacterial pathogens and leads to diarrhea in children in Guangzhou city, without differences in gender.Children over 2 years old are more likely to suffer from NTS infection.High incidence is in autumn.The most common clinical symptoms include fever, vomiting, abdominal pain, bloody stool and pasty stool. Salmonella enteritis is the main type, and Salmonella typhimurium is the second type.Laboratory tests can provide references for the diagnosis and treatment of NTS-related diarrhea.

Childhood obesity has become a critical issue in public health area. We searched Wanfang Data and PubMed databases for published studies on health hazards of childhood obesity in China during 2000-2015. From the evidence of the Chinese population studies, we know childhood obesity brings not only cardiovascular, endocrine and respiratory system health hazards, but also other health hazards to liver, moving skeleton, psychological behavior and cognition intelligence, et al. Only to understand the health hazards of childhood obesity, and put the key preventable period of chronic diseases forward to childhood, can pandemic of chronic diseases be controlled from the sources.

Objective To evaluate physiologic ability and surgical stress (E-PASS) for predicting postoperative complications in patients undergoing elective colonic surgery. Methods The clinical data of 158 patients with colonic cancer who were admitted to the West China Hospital from August to October, 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. E-PASS was applied to evaluate the surgical risk. Three indexes of the E-PASS system,including preoperative risk score (PRS), surgical stress score (SSS) and comprehensive risk score (CRS) were compared with actual postoperative outcomes. Correlation between PRS, SSS, CRS and postoperative risks was analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis. Results Of the 158 patients, 27( 17.1% ) had postoperative complications, and the predictive value was 19.4% ± 2.0% according to the E-PASS. Dukes stages, physical performance indexes, severe heart disease, severe pneumonia disease, length of operation time were correlated with the incidence of complications (r = 0. 193, 0. 410, 0. 183, 0. 174, 0. 198, P ＜ 0.05). PRS, CRS and SSS had good predictive effect on postoperative risks (r = 0. 299, 0. 349, 0. 183, P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusions E-PASS system is a relatively simple, fast and user friendly tool for predicting the risk of short-term postoperative complications.

Objective To analyze the clinical, endoscopic and histopathological features of eosinophilic gastroenteritis ( EG) in children. Methods A retrospective study of 76 children with EG was performed to analyze clinical symptoms, laboratory and imaging results, endoscopic and pathological features, status of Helicobacter pylori ( H. pylori) infection, treatment and outcomes. Results The main clinical symptoms were abdominal pain in 55. 3%(42/76) cases, vomiting in 39. 5% (30/76) cases and hematochezia in 38. 2% cases( 29/76) . The hemoglobin level decreased significantly in 34 cases ( 44. 7%, 34/76). Peripheral blood eosinophil (EOS) count increased significantly in 9 cases (11. 8%,9/76) and EOS percentage increased significantly in 13 cases(17. 1%,13/76). Total serum IgE elevated in 32 cases ( 54. 2%, 32/59 ) . There were also 18 cases ( 36. 7%, 18/49 ) positive in serum allergen?specific immunoglobulin E ( sIgE) test and 25 cases ( 32. 9%,25/76) positive in fecal occult blood test. Among 51 cases of abdominal ultrasound examination, there were 7 cases of ascites, 4 cases of pelvis fluid and 3 cases of intestinal wall change. Endoscopic examination in 76 cases showed 63 cases ( 82. 9%) of mucosal hyperemia/edema,20 cases ( 26. 3%) of ulceration, 17 cases ( 22. 4%) of erosion, 11 cases ( 14. 5%) of nodularity or hyperplasia and 9 cases ( 11. 8%) of normal mucosa. The pathological examination showed mucosal inflammation with a large number of EOS infiltration(≥20 per HPF).There were 12 cases(15. 8%, 12/76) of H. pylori infection. Among the 76 cases, clinical symptoms improved significantly in 74 patients after treatment with dietary allergen avoidance, anti?allergy medications, antacids, montelukast and corticosteroid, and the total efficacy was 97. 4%. The efficacy of dietary allergen avoidance, anti?allergy medications, antacids and montelukast was 93. 8%( 61/65 ) . The efficacy of corticosteroid was 86. 7%(13/15). Conclusion The clinical manifestations and endoscopic characteristics of EG in children lack specificity. In terms of diagnosis, the elevated total serum IgE and the positive sIgE test may be taken as reference for the diagnosis of EG. The definite diagnosis is based on pathological examination ( EOS infiltration≥20 per HPF).While in terms of treatment, dietary allergen exclusion, anti?allergy medications, antacids and montelukast are highly effective, which can be taken as the first option. There is no need of corticosteroid as routine therapy.

Objective: To describe characteristics of cardiometabolic risk factors of children and adolescents aged 6-17 years in 7 cities in China from 2013 to 2015. Methods: Data was from the China Child and Adolescent Cardiovascular Health (CCACH) study. 12 590 children and adolescents were selected from 24 schools (3 kindergartens, 7 primary schools, 7 junior high schools and 7 senior high schools) in seven cities (Changchun, Yinchuan, Beijing, Jinan, Shanghai, Chongqing and Tianjin) during 2013-2015 by using a stratified cluster random sampling method. The demographic characteristics, e.g. birth date, feed status and history of disease, were collected by questionnaires. Anthropometric measurements, i.e. weight, height, waistline, blood pressure, total cholesterol, fasting plasma glucose, triglyceride and high-density lipoprotein, were also collected. The detection rate of metabolic syndrome was calculated respectively according to "international diabetes federation standard " and "definition and prevention of metabolic syndrome in Chinese children and adolescents " . Results: The prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors such as obesity, hypertension, hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia was 12.0%(1 497/12 491), 18.2%(2 193/12 035), 24.4%(3 028/12 422) and 15.8%(1 977/12 490), respectively. The prevalence of these four cardiometabolic risk factors in males was significantly higher than that in females (all P values<0.05). The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 3.3%(272/8 328) with international diabetes federation 2007 definition and 5.4% (453/8 325) with Chinese definition among children above 10 years old. The prevalence of hypertension, hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, high total cholesterol, low high-density lipoproteincholesterol and dyslipidemia increased with the change of obesity type from non-obesity to complex obesity (all P values<0.001). Conclusion The prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors was still high in children and adolescents, which has become an important factor threatening the healthy growth of children and adolescents.
