OBJECTIVETo analyze the clinicopathological features and prognostic factors of breast cancer patients with inguinal lymph node metastases.
METHODSSeventeen breast cancer patients with inguinal lymph node metastases were treated from January 1999 to December 2010 in our cancer center. All of the patients had a history of breast cancer without other primary cancer. Their clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic factors were surveyed.
RESULTSThe frequency of breast cancer cases with inguinal lymph node metastaseis consisted of 0.11% of the total number of breast cancer patients in the same period. Two patients (11.8%) had inguinal lymph node metastasis only, and multi-site metastases were observed in the remaining 15 (88.2%) patients. The number of ER- and/or PR-positive and negative were 10 (58.8%) and 7 (41.2%) cases, respectively, and among the 13 cases who underwent HER-2 test, the number of HER-2-positive was 4 (30.8%). For the 16 patients who underwent surgery, 9 patients were detected with metastatic axillary lymph nodes equal or greater than 4. All of the 17 patients were treated with chemotherapy.The median follow-up time was 156 months. The 5-year overall survival rate was 49.9%. Univariate analysis revealed that metastatic axillary lymph nodes ≥ 4, ER- and(or) PR-negative, adjuvant chemotherapy ≤ 6 cycles, disease stage as III/IV at diagnosis and the period from diagnosis of breast cancer to the occurrence of inguinal lymph node metastasis ≤ 36 months were predictors of shorter PFS (P < 0.05). Metastatic axillary lymph nodes ≥ 4, ER- and(or) PR-negative, adjuvant chemotherapy ≤ 6 cycles, primary recurrence as multiple distant metastases, the period from diagnosis of breast cancer to the occurrence of inguinal lymph nodes metastasis ≤ 36 months and pleural effusion were predictors of shorter OS (P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis revealed that the period from diagnosis of breast cancer to the occurrence of inguinal lymph node metastasis was an independent prognostic factor concerning PFS (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONSThe prognostic factors of breast cancer patients with inguinal lymph node metastases include the number of metastatic axillary lymph nodes, ER and(or) PR status, the cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy, type of primary recurrence, the period from diagnosis of breast cancer to the occurrence of inguinal lymph node metastasis and pleural effusion. Regular and complete physical examination after surgery as well as prompt intensive treatment for high-risk patients may have positive significance in the treatment of such type of patients. However, a type of more reasonable and individualized treatment is warranted in future studies.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the coverage rate of primary immunization of measles containing vaccine (MCV1) among migrant children in Yiwu,Zhejiang province.
METHODSHousehold cluster sampling survey and probability proportion to size sampling method were adopted. A total of 967 migrant children born from 1st July 2007 to 1st July 2010 and their caregivers were selected as target population. Standard face-to-face interviews were conducted to investigate the subjects' knowledge, attitude, practice (KAP) of immunization, MCV1 vaccination and determinants. Multi-variable weighted average score method was adopted to evaluate the result of our survey on KAP. Kaplan-Meier analysis was adopted to assess the coverage of MCV1 and Cox regression analysis was adopted to explore the influencing factors associated with the coverage of MCV1.
RESULTSOut of the 967 children, 104 were born in 2007, accounting for 10.8%; 301 were born in 2008, accounting for 31.1%; 343 were born in 2009, accounting for 35.5% and 219 were born in 2010, accounting for 22.6%. Among the surveyed caregivers, 71.9% (695/967) were mothers and 90.2% (872/976) were migrant from other provinces. According to the result of survey on KAP among caregivers, 56.2% (543/967) scored ≥ 4 points on knowledge, 75.8% (734/967) scored ≥ 4 points on attitude and 48.7% (471/967) scored ≥ 4 points on behavior. 86.6% (838/967) of surveyed caregivers' education levels were under junior middle school.85.9% (831/967) of the migrant children were born in hospitals.36.3% (351/967) of the surveyed families' household income were under 2000 yuan per month.32.7% (316/967) of surveyed caregivers waited less than 15 min for immunization for each time. Coverage rate of MCV1 was 85.9% (831/967; 95%CI: 83.7%-88.1%). The timely coverage rates at 8 months, 12 months, and 24 months were 58.8% (569/967; 95%CI: 55.5%-62.1%), 88.2% (853/967; 95%CI: 86.0%-90.4%) and 98.6% (953/967; 95%CI: 97.8%-99.4%), respectively. The average age of MCV1 immunization for each birth cohort between 2007 and 2010 were 10.4, 10.1, 10.1 and 9.3 month, respectively; without statistical significance (χ(2) = 0.722, P = 0.398). According to the analysis by Cox regression, the caregivers aged ≤ 25 years (24.3% (235/967), RR = 1.520 (95%CI: 1.280-1.800)), the caregivers' education level above college (2.8% (27/967), RR = 3.841 (95%CI: 2.287-6.451)), delivered in county-level hospital (49.4% (478/967), RR = 6.048 (95%CI: 4.311-8.485)), household income > 4000 yuan per month (21.7% (210/967), RR = 1.366 (95%CI:1.163-1.604)), the average score of attitude towards immunization ≥ 4 points (75.9%(734/967), RR = 2.613 (95%CI: 1.026-6.655)), the average waiting time for each vaccination ≤ 15 min (32.7% (316/967), RR = 2.116 (95%CI: 1.341-3.339)) were the important factors to improve the timely immunization coverage rate of MCV1 among migrant children.
CONCLUSIONThe coverage of MCV1 were obviously delayed among migrant children in Yiwu, Zhejiang province. We suggest that the investigation of migrant children should be strengthened and remind or recall mechanism for immunization should be established. Increasing the open days for immunization clinics and reducing the waiting time for vaccination could also improve the coverage and timeliness of the MCV vaccination.

Objective To elucidate the influence of two procedures aortic root remodeling using a straight tubular artificial vessel while preserving the aortic valve and the Florida sleeve procedure on the biomechanics of the aortic root.Methods Five finite element models of the aortic root were reconstructed using computed tomography angiography images,including two cases of aortic root remodeling(A1 and A2),two cases of the Florida sleeve procedure(B1 and B2),and one control group without aortic root pathology(C).Numerical simulations were performed to obtain the blood flow and pressure distribution result to assess the differences in the hemodynamics of the aortic root.Results There were no significant differences in the peak systolic velocity between the two procedures and the control.However,the flow velocity after aortic root remodeling was smoother,similar to the model of the control group,with a more stable average aortic pressure and wall shear stress.In the Florida sleeve procedure,high-speed blood flow affected the vessel wall,leading to various degrees of wall shear stress and pressure concentrations along the aortic wall.Conclusions After aortic root replacement with valve preservation,blood flow patterns in the reconstructed aortic root depended on postoperative changes in sinus geometry.Both surgical procedures showed favorable blood flow patterns;however,the flow pattern after aortic root remodeling was more stable than that after the Florida sleeve procedure.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the incidence of neonatal asphyxia and possible contributing factors for the development of severe asphyxia in Hubei Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, China.
METHODS:
A total of 16 hospitals in Hubei Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture were selected as research centers. A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 22 294 live births in these 16 hospitals from January to December, 2016 to investigate the incidence rate of neonatal asphyxia and possible contributing factors for the development of severe asphyxia.
RESULTS:
Of the 22 294 neonates born alive, 733 (3.29%) were diagnosed with neonatal asphyxia, among whom 627 had mild asphyxia and 106 had severe asphyxia. The neonates with low maternal education level, maternal anemia during pregnancy, chorioamnionitis, abnormal amniotic fluid, abnormal umbilical cord, placenta previa, placental abruption, Tujia Minority, preterm birth, and low birth weight had a higher incidence of severe asphyxia (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
The incidence rate of neonatal asphyxia in Hubei Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture is higher. Low maternal education level, maternal anemia during pregnancy, chorioamnionitis, abnormal amniotic fluid, abnormal umbilical cord, placenta previa, placental abruption, Tujia Minority, preterm birth, and low birth weight may be related to the development of severe neonatal asphyxia.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of ovalbumin(OVA)-induced cough variant asthma (CVA) on the intestinal flora of mice, based on the traditional Chinese medicine theory of "exterior-interior relationship between the lung and the large intestine" and 16S ribosomal DNA gene sequencing technology. MethodsTwenty BALB/c female mice were randomly divided into model group and control group, and were sensitized and stimulated with OVA to establish a CVA mouse model. After modeling, the body weight and the cough response of mice were recorded by ammonia water-induced cough method. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the pathological changes in the lungs of mice. The feces of mice were collected for 16S rDNA high-throughput sequencing analysis. ResultsCompared with the control group, the mice in the model group were in a poorer general state, being restless, scratching their ears, and losing weight (P<0.01). The model group mice had increased cough times (P<0.01) and shortened cough latency (P<0.01) in comparison to the control group. Pathological results showed that the model group mice had obvious inflammatory infiltration, thickened airway smooth muscle, and epithelial cell necrosis. 16S ribosomal DNA sequencing showed that the species richness and diversity of the intestinal flora of mice in the model group increased, and the structure of the intestinal flora changed significantly. At the phylum level, the relative abundance of Firmicutes in the model group was decreased, and the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes and Euryarchaeota was increased. At the genus level, the relative abundance of Lactobacillus was decreased in the model group, and the relative abundance of Methanobrevibacter and Prevotellaceae UCG-003 was increased. ConclusionOVA-induced CVA mice had intestinal flora disorder, which provides new idea for the treatment of CVA, and further enriches the traditional Chinese medicine theory of “exterior-interior relationship between the lung and the large intestine”.

Osteoporotic thoracolumbar fracture in the elderly will seriously reduce their quality of life and life expectancy. For osteoporotic thoracolumbar fracture in the elderly, spinal reconstruction is necessary, which should comprehensively consider factors such as the physical condition, fracture type, clinical characteristics and osteoporosis degree. While there lacks relevant clinical norms or guidelines on selection of spinal reconstruction strategies. In order to standardize the concept of spinal reconstruction for osteoporotic thoracolumbar fracture in the elderly, based on the principles of scientificity, practicality and progressiveness, the authors formulated the Clinical guideline for spinal reconstruction of osteoporotic thoracolumbar fracture in elderly patients ( version 2022), in which suggestions based on evidence of evidence-based medicine were put forward upon 10 important issues related to the fracture classification, non-operative treatment strategies and surgical treatment strategies in spinal reconstruction after osteoporosis thoracolumbar fracture in the elderly, hoping to provide a reference for clinical treatment.
