Objective To assess the effectiveness of balloon dilation and airway stenting performed under fluoroscopic guidance for the treatment of benign and malignant tracheal stenosis. Methods Under fluoroscopic guidance,balloon dilation and airway stenting were performed in 45 patients with tracheobronchial stricture. Of the 45 patients, malignant tracheal stenosis was seen in 37, including mediastinal nodal metastases (n = 14), esophageal carcinoma (n=13), lung carcinoma (n = 4), adenocarcinoma of bronchus (n = 3), lymphoma (n = 2) and laryngocarcinoma (n = 1), and benign tracheal stenosis was seen in 8, including endobronchial tuberculosis (n = 6), retrosternal thyroid adenoma (n = 1) and endotracheal intubation (n = 1). Airway stenting with serf-expandable metal stent was employed in 38 patients and balloon dilation in 7 patients. All the procedures were performed under fluoroscopic guidance. Results A total of 53 self-expandable metal stents was implanted in 38 patients. The clinical symptoms were immediately relived after the procedure in all patients except for one patient who died from choking of sputum. No stent migration was observed. Restenosis developed in 4 patients, which was successfully treated with repeated stenting and balloon dilation. Nineteen times of balloon dilation procedure were accomplished in 7 patients. Marked remission of clinical symptoms was seen in most cases. During a follow-up period (ranged from 0 to 124 months with a mean of 24.5 months) 31 patients died. Conclusion For both benign and malignant tracheal stenosis, balloon dilation with airway stenting performed under fluoroscopic guidance is a safe and efficient therapy with instant curative effect in relieving clinical symptoms.

Objective:To investigate the serum level of miR-224 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients and its clinical diag-nostic significance. Methods:The serum level of miR-224 was detected by real-time quantitative PCR. This study included 42 cases of patients with HCC, 36 patients with liver cirrhosis (LC), 55 patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), and 40 healthy persons (NC). The relative expressions of miR-224 were calculated. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were analyzed to determine the sensitivity and specificity of miR-224 expression levels in HCC diagnosis. Results:Result shows that the relative miR-224 expression was higher in the serum of HCC patients than that in the CHB, LC, and NC groups. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The relative miR-224 expression in the serum of HCC patients and alpha fetoprotein (AFP) were positively correlated (P<0.05). By comparison, the tumor size, TNM stage, tumor differentiation, and lymph node metastasis were not correlated with mirR-224 expression (P>0.05). ROC analysis shows that the best critical value of the relative expression levels of miR-224 was 3.47, with sensi-tivity of 82.2%, specificity of 92.8%, and area under the curve of 0.935. Conclusion:The serum level of miR-224 in HCC patients has high specificity, and miR-224 has great potential to become a new serological marker for the diagnosis of HCC.

Objective To investigate incision pathogenic bacteria after spinal surgery, and observe clinical effects of therapeutic methods. Methods A total of 30 cases of early surgical incision infection (7 cases of superficial infection and 23 cases of deep infection) after spinal surgery were retrospectively analyzed. The basic data including clinical manifes-tations, diagnosis, treatment, etiology and follow-up results were analyzed. Results It was found that the mean infection time after operation was 2-15 days in 30 patients. Thirty-three strains were isolated including 18 gram-positive cocci (54.5%, and Staphylococcus aureus account for 13, 39.4%), 15 gram-negative bacteria (45.5%, and Coli communior account for 6, 18.2%). The drug susceptibility test showed that gram-positive cocci were highly sensitive to vancomycin, rifampin, tei-coplanin and cotrimoxazole. No vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus were found. Gram negative bacteria were high-ly sensitive to imipenem (100%). Seven cases of superficial infection were cured after dressing. Twenty-three cases of deep incision wound infection were no recurrence of infection after treatment by deep wound debridement, and postoperative cathe-terization. Conclusion The early wound infection after spinal surgery is usually due to Staphylococcus aureus. It is good to perform wound debridement, continuous perfusion drainage, and treatment with vancomycin for deep wound infection.

Objective to evaluate the impacts of 6 standard comparible tables of biparietal diameter(BPD)-gestational age to the second trimester Down syndrome screening and the individual risk rate for pregnant woman. Methods A total of 25 346 pregnant woman with gestational age be-tween 12 to 20 weeks were recruited and analyzed in the study,including 32 Down syndrome. For each pregnant woman,we calculated the gestation-al age by six different BPD-gestational age tables,and the prenatal screening risk value of gestational age. then ROC curve,detection rate and posi-tive rate were used to evaluate the effect of different control tables on the screening results. In addition,individual risk rate was used to determine the influence of gestational age deviation on pregnant woman. Results According to the ROC,we found that our self-designed BPD table had the best AUC(0.972),while the table designed by a hospital in Shanghai had the least AUC(0.923). the difference was significant by statistic test(P =0.045). With the same detection rate of 75%,we found our self-designed table had the least positive rate with only 2.3%,and the cutoff was 1∶280, while the table of Chinese Obstetrics and Gynecology had the highest ratio(4.8%),and the cutoff was 1∶345. Our results suggest that once gesta-tional age is estimated to be higher than actual age,the risk will be higher and the positive rate will increase. However,if gestational age is estimated to be smaller,the risk will be smaller and the negative rate will increase. Conclusion the impacts of different tables on Down syndrome screening are different. Our self-designed BPD table is the most effective to estimate gestational age,and the control table of Hongkong is ranked No.2. the wrong estimation of gestational age will largely affect the individual risk of pregnant woman.
