3.Diagnosis and treatment of patellar chondroblastoma.
China Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology 2013;26(12):1059-1062
Chondroblastoma of the patella, rare occurred in patellar,is a kind of an uncommon benign bone tumor. Compared with giant cell tumor, the morbidity of chondroblastoma is lower. Meanwhile, its clinical manifestations are various, and images are very complicated. Therefore, the understanding of this kind of tumors may be limited even to the orthopedist. The differences of patellar chondroblastoma between other tumor in X-ray, CT and MRI is a spot in recent years. Sometimes patellar chondroblastoma coexists with aneurysmal bone cyst, which is a challenge to obtain an accurate pathological and radiological diagnosis. For the treatment, curettage and bone grafting is one the most popular method, but whether to perform a biopsy before surgery still remain controversy. Some new technique still has an unknown prospect for the treatment such as radiofrequency ablation.

4.Use of myelography in microendoscopic discectomy
Chinese Journal of Minimally Invasive Surgery 2005;0(12):-
Objective To investigate the significance of myelography for selecting operation methods in microendoscopic discectomy(MED).Methods A total of 196 patients with lumbar disc herniation diagnosed by CT/MRI received a myelography before MED.According to their clinical manifestations,signs,and outcomes of myelography,the patients were given three different operation methods.①Simple discectomy was performed in 105 patients with patent spinal canal,lateral impression at intervertebral level,and shift of the nerve root sleeve;②Discectomy with spinal decompression was performed in 70 patients with patent spinal canal and compression of the nerve root sleeve;③Discectomy with semilaminectomy was performed in 21 patients with patent spinal canal,semispherical compression of the nerve root sleeve,and 7-shaped nerve root.Results The operation time was 30~90 min(mean,50 min) and the intraoperative blood loss was 30~120 ml(mean,50 ml).No intraoperative complications occurred.Conversions to open surgery were required in 21 patients,including partial spinal stenosis in 16 patients and thickened vertebral plate in 5 patients.Follow-ups were carried out in 196 patients for 3~58 months(mean,34 months).According to the Japanese Orthopedic Association(JOA) scoring system,the final scores significantly increased postoperatively(25.86?2.96) than preoperatively(13.21?4.96)((t=)38.24,P=0.00).According to the Macnab and Watts standard,the rate of excellent or good results was 93.7%(164/175).Conclusions Myelography has an important reference value for selecting operation methods of microendoscopic discectomy in patients with lumbar disc herniation.
5.Diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of uterine cervical neoplasms complicated with pregnancy
Journal of International Oncology 2013;(2):145-148
The incidence of cervical neoplasms complicated with pregnancy is rising,with delaying of reproouctive age.Because of the prevalence of cytology in pregnancy.eervical neoplasnis complicated with pregnancy are mostly detected early. All patients with cytological abnormalities should undergo colposcopy, and when necessary,they should undergo cervical biopsy.Conization is reserved for patients with suspected invasion.In cases of invasive carcinoma detected up to the 12th week of pregnancy,immediate treatment is prioritized.Regarding diagnoses made during the second trimester,in early-stage invasive cancers,delay of therapy seems to be safe.fetal pulmonary maturity can be awaited.And the use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy to stabilize the disease until the time of delivery appears to be viable.Doctors should draw up personalized program for the patients with cervical neoplasms complicated with pregnancy according to stage of disease, gestational weeks and the patient's desire for continued pregnancy.Cervical neoplasms complicated with pregnancy are mostly early-stageinvasive cancers, so prognosis is good.
6.Expression and clinical significance of HSPA2 in pancreatic cancer
Acta Universitatis Medicinalis Anhui 2017;52(8):1179-1182
Objective To detect the expression of HSPA2 mRNA and protein in pancreatic cancer and corresponding adjacent nontumorous tissues, and investigate the expression of HSPA2 protein in pancreatic cancer and its association with clinicopathological characteristics.Methods Western blot and qPCR (real-time quantitative PCR) was used to evaluate HSPA2 expression in pancreatic cancer and corresponding adjacent nontumorous tissues.Immunohistochemistry was used to investigate the HSPA2 expression in pancreatic cancer and its association with clinicopathological characteristics.Results Both the mRNA and protein levels of HSPA2 were significant higher in pancreatic cancer tissues than those in their paired adjacent nontumorous tissues.High HSPA2 expression was detected in 68.8% (55/80) of pancreatic cancer tissues.HSPA2 protein expression was significantly associated with tumor differentiation, vascular invasion, and status of metastasis (P=0.011,0.005,0.012).Conclusion HSPA2 expression is elevated in pancreatic cancer, and positively correlated the process of invasion, metastasis and progression of pancreatic cancer.
7.Study of inhibition of GABA on proliferation of cholangiocarcinoma cell line QBC939 and its mechanism
Chinese Journal of Hepatobiliary Surgery 2009;15(1):41-44
Objective To explore the effect of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) on the growth, apoptosis and telomerase activity of Cholangiocarcinoma cell line QBC939. Methods Cholangiocarcinoma cell line QBC939 was cultured by routine method, and then treated with different concentrations of GABA (1-1000 μmmol/L). The proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle of QBC939 cells was investigated by MTT, Flow cytometry and transmission electron microscopy. The telomer-ase activity of QBC939 cells was examined by modified PCR-ELISA assay. Radioimmunoassay was used to measure the intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate(cAMP) content. Results The dif-ferent concentrations of GABA inhibited the growth of QBC939 cells and promoted the apoptosis. The apop-totic rate of QBC939 cells was increased from 4. 8% to 28. 03%, which had significant difference (P<0.05). It had no effect for distribution of cell cycle. Cell nuclear condensation and apoptotic bodies were seen by transmission electron microscopy. Telomerase activity was inhibited by GABA(0. 82±0. 048 vs 0.56±0. 054, P<0.05). The content of intracellular cAMP was increased with the increase of GABA concentration in a dose-dependent manner [(0. 59±0. 049) nmol/L vs (0. 82±0. 033)nmol/L, P<0. 05]. Conclusion GABA can inhibit the proliferation of QBC939 cells by promoting apoptosis and inhibiting telomerase activi-ty, which may be mediated by the information transmission of post-receptor.
