OBJECTIVETo investigate the safety and efficacy of trastuzumab administered concurrently with anthracycline-containing adjuvant regimen for breast cancer.

METHODSIt is a prospective, randomized and controlled trial. Participants were randomized to receive trastuzumab administered concurrently or sequentially with anthracycline-containing adjuvant regimen. The primary endpoint was cardiac safety. The second endpoints were disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS).

RESULTSOne hundred and nine breast cancer patients were enrolled and randomized in this trial. Fifty-five participants received trastuzumab administered concurrently with anthracycline-containing adjuvant regimen and 54 patients received trastuzumab administered sequentially with anthracycline. The primary cardiac event was asymptomatic decrease in the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). There was no significant difference between concurrent and sequential groups in cardiac event rates (9.1% vs13.0%, P = 0.556), neither of LVEF values at basline or at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months during trastuzumab treatment (P > 0.05). Four patients (7.3%) in the concurrent group suffered local recurrences or distant metastases, and 6 participants (11.1%) in the sequential group had distant metastases. There was no significant difference between the two groups in DFS (P = 0.724). There was no death in both groups.

CONCLUSIONSTrastuzumab administered concurrently with anthracycline is a safe adjuvant regimen for breast cancer and does not increase cardiac events. Further research is needed to determine the efficacy of this treatment regimen.

OBJECTIVETo discuss radiological characteristics and clinical manifestation of isolated lumbar foraminal stenosis.

METHODSFrom March 2011 to March 2014, 21 patients with isolated degenerative lumbar foraminal stenosis accepted lumbar decompression and fusion in Beijing Luhe Hospital. Intervertebral disc space was evaluated by measuring the position of joint-body line on preoperative X-ray. Bilateral foraminal area of the corresponding segment in CT (sagittal view of 2D reconstruction) and MRI (T2W1 sagittal view) were measured by Surgimap software. For patients with unilateral symptoms, foraminal area of the affected side was compared with that of the contralateral side. Foraminal area of the same segment on CT was also compared with that on MRI. Preoperatively and at the final follow-up, visual analogue score (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) were used to evaluate clinical outcomes.

RESULTSAll patients had a follow-up over 6 months and the average follow-up was 16.8 months (7-42 months). Of the 21 patients (26 segments), 12 segments showed gross narrowing and 14 segments showed slight narrowing. After preoperative measurement on MRI, 6 patients had foraminal stenosis of grade 2, and 15 patients had foraminal stenosis of grade 3, showing no significant difference in clinical outcomes. Compared with the foraminal area of the unaffected side, the affected side showed a decrease of 16% on CT and 28% on MRI, and the difference was statistically significant (t = 3.453, P < 0.05). The foraminal area measured on CT was larger than that measured on MRI (P < 0.05). Compared with that preoperatively, VAS (back pain), VAS (leg pain) and ODI showed significant improvement at the final follow-up (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSRadiological examinations as X-ray, CT, MRI and intervertebral foramen block technique play an important role in the diagnosis of foraminal stenosis. Soft oppression caused by hyperplasia and hypertrophy of transforaminal ligment or joint capsule may be important promoters of degenerative lumbar foraminal stenosis. Lumbar foraminal decompression and interbody fusion can satisfactorily improve preoperative symptoms.

Percutaneous vertebral augmentation, including percutaneous vertebroplasty and percutaneous kyphoplasty, has been considered as an effective and safe option in treating osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. The fractured vertebrae were strengthened by the bone cement injected, thus reducing the symptoms related to fracture. Bone cement injected intraoperatively can be divided into extraspinal (leakage) and intraspinal part, depending on its final location. The former may lead to pulmonary embolism, spinal cord or nerve injury, or some other sequelae; the latter may closely relate to the clinical outcome, radiological outcomes, surgical complications and biomechanical properties. To date, there were a large number of studies on term of the distribution type of bone cement. However, the classification criteria varied and there was lack of literature review on this issue. According to the literature reviewed, the distribution type of bone cement was a critical parameter in percutaneous vertebral augmentation; most classification systems were based on the postoperative X-ray, some based on the postoperative CT, and only a few based on postoperative MRI; in different classification systems, criteria on bone cement morphology tends to be consistent, however, criteria on bone cement range tends to be inconsistent, consistency, similarity and controversy all exited among conclusions between various studies on the morphology and range of bone cement; any single classification system can not describe the distribution of bone cement thoroughly. In this study, classification systems were reviewed, clinical significance and biomechanical conclusions of different classification systems were documented, and the reliability and limitations of classification systems were summarized, hence providing an insight for further research on classifications of the bone cement distribution.

Objective To explore the safety and cosmetic effect of nipple-sparing modified radical mas tectomy and immediate tissue expander implantation with single circumaereolar incision.Methods 30 patients were enrolled in Peking Union Medical College Hospital between Jan.2014 and Dec.2015.All the patients were categorized according to surgical incision (single circumaereolar incision group vs double incisions group).Data on clinicopathological parameters,average hospital stay,complications and overall cosmetic effect were retrospectively collected.Data was performed with Chi-square test,Fisher exact test and t-test.Statistical significance was defined as P＜0.05.Results 19 patients were enrolled in single circumaereolar incision group,and 11 patients in double incisions group.There was no significant difference for operation duration (P=0.093) and average hospital stay (P=0.339).After follow-up for 19.1 months,ranging from 8 to 31 months,no patients developed seroma or arm lymphedema.There was no statistical significance between the two groups in terms of sensation in nippleaereolar area (P=0.973),bilateral symmetry (P=0.650) and overall cosmesis (P=0.483).Conclusion single circumaereolar incision nipple-sparing modified radical mastectomy and immediate tissue expander implantation can be one of the preferable surgical procedures with benefits of minimal invasiveness,reliable oncological safety and decent cosmetic effect.

Objective To investigate the expression of centromeric protein F(CENPF)and microribonucleic acid 1-3p(miR-1-3p)in the serum of patients with advanced gastric cancer and their correlation with prognosis.Methods Sixty patients with advanced gastric cancer admitted to our hospital from March 2019 to March 2020 were collected as the study group,while 60 healthy volunteers who underwent physical examinations at our hospital's physical examination center during the same period were collected as the control group.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR)method was applied to detect the expression levels of serum CENPF and miR-1-3p in each group;Pearson method was applied to analyze the correlation between serum levels of CENPF and miR-1-3p;Kaplan-Meier method was applied to analyze the relationship between the expression of CENPF,miR-1-3p,and prognosis in patients with advanced gastric cancer;and COX regression was applied to analyze risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with advanced gastric cancer.Results Compared with the control group,the CENPF level in the study group was obviously increased,while the miR-1-3p level was obviously reduced(P＜0.05).The correlation analysis results showed that there was a negative correlation between serum CENPF and miR-1-3p levels in patients with advanced gastric cancer(r =-0.650,P＜0.001).There were obvious differences in CENPF and miR-1-3p levels among different TNM stages and lymph node metastasis status(P＜0.05).The 3-year survival rate of patients in the high expression group of CENPF was 19/30(63.33%),which was obviously lower than that in the low expression group,28/30(93.33%)(χ2 = 7.954,P＜0.001);the 3-year survival rate of patients in high expression group of miR-1-3p was 29/30(96.67%),which was obviously higher than that in the low expression group,18/30(60.00%)(χ2 = 11.882,P = 0.001).Multivariate COX regression analysis showed that TNM staging,lymph node metastasis,CENPF,and miR-1-3p expression were risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with advanced gastric cancer(P＜0.05).Conclusion The serum CENPF level in patients with advanced gastric cancer obviously increase,while miR-1-3p level obviously decrease,both of which are related to prognosis.

Objective:To establish the reference values of stimulation single fiber electromyography (SFEMG) in orbicularis oculi, and to explore its sensitivity in repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS) negative ocular myasthenia gravis (OMG) patients, and the relationship between jitter and various clinical parameters.Methods:Thirty-two healthy volunteers were included to establish the reference value of normal controls from January 2019 to December 2019. From December 2019 to January 2023, 36 OMG patients with negative RNS were collected. Quantitative MG score (QMGS) was performed, neostigmine test and antibody titers as well as thymus CT results were recorded. One side of the orbicularis oculi muscle was tested with a disposable concentric needle electrode in stimulation SFEMG, and the mean consecutive difference (MCD) value was calculated, which was compared with the average MCD value and upper limit of individual values in normal controls to evaluate whether the jitter was abnormal. Spearman correlation analysis of abnormal mean MCD values with QMGS and antibody titer was conducted.Results:Among the 32 healthy volunteers, there were 13 males and 19 females, the age was (46.8 ±18.7) years, and the MCD was (19.0 ±4.4) μs. The upper limit of the reference value was 27.7 μs for average MCD, and 37.4 μs for 10% individual values. Among 36 OMG patients negative at RNS tests, 20 were male and 16 were female, with a age of (37.2 ±17.0) years. The MCD was (29.9 ±14.7) μs, and Jitter was abnormal in 29 patients (81%). Among them, 20 (20/25) patients were antibody positive, 6 (6/26) patients had thymic hyperplasia, and 7 (7/26) patients had thymoma. The QMGS was 3(2, 4). There were 7 patients (19%) with normal jitter, whose QMGS was 3(2, 4). Among the patients with normal Jitter, 5 (5/5) patients were antibody positive, 2 (2/6) patients had thymic hyperplasia. There was no statistically significant difference in clinical indicators between the two groups of patients with abnormal or normal jitter. There was no significant correlation in antibody titer or QMGS with abnormal mean MCD value. Conclusions:The upper limit of the mean MCD value in the normal controls is 27.7 μs. The upper limit of a single value is 37.4 μs. Its sensitivity for OMG patients with RNS negative is 81%, and the abnormal mean MCD value does not show a significant correlation with various clinical indicators. Abnormal jitter indicates dysfunction of neuromuscular junction transmission, which is an important neuroelectrophysiological indicator for MG patients and is suitable for RNS negative patients. Orbicularis oculi muscle stimulation SFEMG provides a reliable and sensitive electrophysiological means for functional evaluation of neuromuscular junction.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the major influence factors of child neglect among rural areas children aged 3-6 years in China.

METHODSAccording to multi-stage stratified cluster sampling, distribution characteristics and the level of economic development, we randomly sampled 10 provinces, 26 cities (8 capital cities, 16 prefecture-level cities and 2 municipalities) using lottery method. Depending on the different level of economic and cultural, we sampled one medium county from each city (municipalities sampled two counties), a total of 28 counties. All towns were divided into high, medium and low three levels in accordance with economic and cultural, each level sampled one town, each conty sampled three towns, a total of 84 towns were sampled. Each town sampled 40 children, including 20 boys and 20 girls (including each 10 children aged 3 to 6, half and half boys and girls). 4 096 rural children aged 3-6 years old were sampled and surveyed of China. Based on "the Neglect Norms for Children Aged 3 to 6 Years Old in Rural Areas of China" explored the risk factors of child neglect. SPSS 18. 0 for windows was employed for statistics analysis. Multifactorial analysis was conducted through multivariate Logistic Regression.

RESULTSThe total neglected rate of the rural children aged 3 to 6 was 53.7% (2,047/3,810), and the total neglected degree was 44.42±7.57. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that, neglected risk of the boys was higher than the girls (OR=1.30, 95% CI: 1.13-1.49), neglected risk of children were higher, when their mothers were migrant workers (OR=2.18, 95% CI: 1.59-3.00); the lower educational level of mothers, the higher neglected risk of children, the children in families that mothers only received primary education or was uneducated were most likely to be neglected (OR=2.92, 95% CI: 1.91-4.47), the second was the families that mothers received primary education (OR=1.86, 95% CI: 1.29-2.69); the lower the household income, the easier to be neglected the children, the easiest one was the household income less than 5000 RMB (OR=2.85, 95% CI: 2.14-3.79), the second was 5000-9,999 RMB (OR=1.76, 95% CI: 1.40-2.20); the relationship between children and mothers was distanced, neglect risk of children was higher (OR=3.88, 95% CI: 1.31-11.52); left behind children were easier to be neglected (OR=1.30, 95% CI: 1.09-1.54).

CONCLUSIONThe influence factors among children aged 3-6 years in the rural areas of China were boys, mother's occupation, maternal education level, the relationship between children and mothers, household income and left-behind children.
