Objective To study the value of expression of carcinoma-associated antigens in early diagnosis and prediction of prognosis of gallbladder carcinoma. Methods The expression of PCNA, CEA, CA50 and E-cad were detected by immunohistochemistry in 50 cases of gallbladder carcinoma, 10 gallbladder adenomas and 10 cholecystitis. Results The positive rates of CEA, CA50 and PCNA LI in gallbladder carcinomas were significantly higher than that of gallbladder adenomas and cholecystitis(P

Objective To investigate the clinical presentation, morphological features, immunohistochemical staining of the gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), and its histogenesis as well. Methods The morphologic characteristics of GISTs were studied in 58 cases using light microscopy. The expression of c-kit(CD117), CD34 and vimentin were detected in all of the cases with EnVision staining. Results Among 58 cases of GISTs, 41 were spindle cell type, 5 epithelioid cell type and 12 mixture type, equivalent to 86.6 %(58 of 67) of all of the mesenchymal tumors of gastrointestinal tract admitted in the same period. The epithelioid cell type tumors were mainly composed of the epitheloid cells, predominantly short spindle, oval or round in pattern, with an overall eosinophilic cytoplasm by hematoxylin-eosin stain. Focal cytoplasmic vacuolization was often seen. Sometimes signet-ring like cells and cells with a clear cytoplasm were seen in the epithelioid stromal tumor. The tumor cells arranged in interlacing fascicles forming whorls or sometimes cell clusters. All of the 58 stromal tumors were strongly positive for vimentin (100 %), 55 out of 58 tumors positive for CD117 (94.8 %) and 46 out of 58 positive for CD34(79.3 %). Some cases also expressed SMA, actin, S-100 and MBP. Conclusions GISTs were the most common mesenchymal tumor seen in the gastrointestinal tract. Under light microscope, the morphology of stromal tumors sometimes looks like a leiomyoma or Schwannoma. The application of immunohistochemical markers (particularly CD117 and CD34) is considered necessary for the differential diagnosis. GISTs may originate from the pluripotential precursor cells like the interstitial cells of Cajal.

Objective To analyze the CT, especially HRCT appearance of localized organizing pneumonia. Methods The CT scans of nine patients with histologically proved localized organizing pneumonia were studied retrospectively. Results The size of the lesions in nine cases varied from 2 to 4 cm( average 2.5 cm). Eight lesions were located in the peripheral lung parenchyma near the pleural surface. The lesions were detected as round in four, anomaly in five. The margin of six lesions had inward bow indentation. Infiltrating lesions in surrounding structures were found in four cases. Conclusion The CT, especially HRCT appearance of localized organizing pneumonia shows some features that can make most of them to be differentiated from other lesions.

Objective To understand the awareness of children snoring disease knowledge and demand of health education and appropriate health education methods from the parents whose children were in hospital by snoring, and provide basis for health education in clinic. Methods On the basis of literature search and expert consultation, 276 parents whose children in hospital by snoring were investigated by self-designed questionnaire. The questionnaire included the awareness of children snoring disease knowledge and demand of health education and appropriate health education methods were carried out. Results The awareness rate of children snoring disease knowledge was 2.54%-55.07% in parents whose children in hospital by snoring. The average demand rate of health education surpass 80%, major reason and symptom and main therapy and surgical outcomes of snoring were more concerned with 100.00%(276/276). The average demand rate of the impact on the intelligence was 96.38%(266/276). Acceptable methods of health education from high to low were as follows, consulting a doctor was 93.48%(258/276), posting publicity column in the halls or ward hallway was 74.28% (205/276), attending health education lecture was 66.30% (183/276), through QQ group or micro letter platform was 61.96%(171/276), through community healthy knowledge publicity column was 56.52%(156/276), through broadcast radio and television programs when see a doctor or in hospital was 53.62%(148/276), through telephone counseling was 36.96%(102/276), through hospital health prescription was 36.23% (100/276), through audiovisual teaching materials was 32.25% (89/276), communication between parents was 7.97%(22/276). Conclusions The awareness rate of children snoring disease knowledge from the parents whose children in hospital by snoring is low, the medical staff need take various ways of health education to improve snoring children′s parents′overall understanding level of children sleep apnea, effectively prevent various influencing factors of sleep apnea and snoring related complications, to reduce the dangers caused by snoring.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of multi-parameter MRI in diagnosing ovarian endometrial cysts. Methods Pelvic MRI of 68 patients with confirmed pathological diagnosis were retrospectively reviewed. The patients were divided into ovarian endometriosis (35 patients with 42 lesions, group A) and other cystic lesions (33 patients with 38 lesions , group B).The signal intensity value of T1WI, T2WI of cyst fluid and iliopsoas, ADC value, phase values and R2*values were obtained, cyst fluid/iliopsoas ratios (T1R and T2R) were calculated. The non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test was employed to compare parameter values between the two groups. The values of diagnostic performance were analyzed by using receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). Use the Logistics regression parameters of diagnostic efficacy to select the highest Youden index for the best parameter association after combining the parameters step by step. Results The median of T1R, T2R, ADC, phase, T1R and R2*values for group A were 3.39, 5.28, 1.20×10-3 mm2/s,2.19×10-2, 15.08 Hz respectively, and that of group B were 0.91, 10.85, 2.64×10-3mm2/s,2.67×10-2, 3.01 Hz, respectively. There were statistically significant difference between the two groups (P<0.01).The AUC of T1R, T2R, ADC value, phase values and R*2 value were 0.930, 0.874, 0.891, 0.685 and 0.924 respectively, and there was no difference among them (P>0.05). When combining T1R, ADC value, R2*value together, the Youden index (0.849 7) was highest. Conclusion Combining T1R, ADC and R2* values can provide an effective way to discriminate endometrial ovarian cyst from other ovary cystic lesions.
