Objective To analyze the clinicaopathological features and treatment of bilateral asynchronous breast cancer.Methods The clinical and pathological data of 13 patients with bilateral asynchronous breast cancer admitted in our hospital from 2010 to 2016 ere retrospectively reviewed.Results The bilateral asynchronous breast cancer accounted for 1.7% of all breast cancer patients admitted n the same period (13/782).The median age of patients at first onset was 47.The modified radical operation was the main surgical lity (12/13 for the first cancer;8/13 for the second cancer).The clinical stage Ⅱ was predominant in all patients (10/13 of the first r;9/13 of the second cancer).Invasive ductal cancer was the most common pathologic type (in 11/13 of the first cancer;11/13 of the cond cancer).Hormone receptors were highly expressed in most of the cases (9/13 of the first cancer;7/13 of the second cancer).The disease-free interval was more than 10 years in most cases (8/13).Among 13 cases local recurrence was detected in 1 case, distant metastases in 2 cases, and 1 case died from distant metastasis.Conclusion The bilateral asynchronous breast cancer has a low incidence;however, a close follow up is necessary for early detection and treatment of the second carcinoma.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of Ba-pulling and Qian-traction manipulation with neck suspension and movement for acute cervical radiculopathy. Methods: A total of 85 patients who met the inclusion criteria were randomized into an observation group and a control group by random numbers, with 43 cases in the observation group and 42 cases in the control group. The observation group was treated with Ba-pulling and Qian-traction manipulation with neck suspension and movement;while the control group was treated with Bashen-pulling and stretching manipulation in a supine position. The treatment was performed once a day, 10 times as a treatment course. The therapeutic efficacy was evaluated after 1 treatment course, and the changes in the scores of visual analog scale (VAS) and neck disability index (NDI) were observed. Results: The total effective rate was 97.7% in the observation group, and 83.3% in the control group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P＜0.05). After treatment, the VAS and NDI scores of both groups were significantly decreased (both P＜0.01), and the differences in the VAS and NDI scores between the two groups were statistically significant (both P＜0.01). Conclusion: Both Ba-pulling and Qian-traction manipulation with neck suspension and movement and Bashen-pulling and stretching manipulation in a supine position can relieve pain and improve cervical function in patients with acute cervical radiculopathy, and Ba-pulling and Qian-traction manipulation with neck suspension and movement can produce more significant efficacy than Bashen-pulling and stretching manipulation in a supine position.

OBJECTIVETo compare clinical efficacy of anatomic locking plate and Gamma nail in treating unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures with external wall fractures.

METHODSFrom June 2010 to June 2014,clinical data of 44 patients with intertroehanteric fractures associated with lateral wall fractures (type 31A2.2-3.3) followed more than 12 months,which treated with Gamma nail or anatomic locking plate,were retrospective analyzed. Sixteen patients were treated with anatomic locking plate, including 6 males and 10 females aged from 32 to 83 years old with an average of 56.5 years old. Twenty-eight patients were treated with Gamma nail including 17 males and 11 females aged from 26 to 87 years old with an average of 60.4 years old. Operative time, intraoperative fluoroscopy times, blood loss (intraoperative and hidden blood loss), hospital stays were observed and compared. PPMS and HHS scoring were used to evaluate postoperative clinical effect.

RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 12 to 24 months with an average of 16.2 months. Operative time in Gamma nail was shorter than anatomic locking plate; while blood loss( intraoperative and hidden blood loss) and intraoperative fluoroscopy times in anatomic locking plate were less than that of in Gamma nail. There was no significant meaning in hospital stays between two groups. Postoperative full weight-bearing time in anatomic locking plate was prolonged than Gamma nail. At the final following-up, PPMS in Gamma nail was 7.50 ± 1.78 and 6.82 ± 1.38 in anatomic locking plate, and there was no obvious meaning between two groups (t = 2.341, P = 0.132); there was no significant differences in HHS score between Gamma nail (83.25 ± 11.18) and anatomic locking plate (86.14 ± 12.36) (t = 1.923, P = 0.243). The incidence of complications in Gamma nail was less than anatomic lock-ing plate (P = 0.005).

CONCLUSIONAnatomic locking plate for intertrochanteric fractures with external wall fractures could avoid re-injury of external wall, especially for severe comminuted fractures, difficult for intramedullary nailing, and there was no significant meaning in hip joint function compared with Gamma nail, while postoperative incidence of complications was higher than Gamma nail, so early weight-bearing was not stress.

Objective To retrospectively study the perioperative complications and postoperative function recovery of 93 patients treated with simultaneous bilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods A total of 93 patients (186 hips) undergone simultaneous bilateral THA from January 1999 to January 2009 in our hospital were involved in this study. There were 70 males and 23 females (at age range of 25-65 years, average 41. 8 years). The preoperative diagnosis included bilateral avascular necrosis of femoral head in 48 patients, rheumatoid arthritis in 11, developmental dysplasia of the hip in 26 and ankylosing spondylitis in 8. The intraoperative blood loss, Harris scores before operation and at final followup as well as perioperative complications were analyzed. Results All the patients were followed up for average 65 months (12-118 months), which showed femur fracture in one patient and infection six months after discharge in one patient. The Harris score was increased from (36.7 ±6.1) points preoperatively to (91.2±6.2) points at the final follow-up. Hip pain disappeared in 92 patients after operation and radiograph showed no loosening. Actebular loosening occurred in one patient 49 months after operation and was revised accordingly. Conclusion Under strict control of operation indications, suitable choice and implantation of the prosthesis and emphasis on perioperative management and postoperative rehabilitation, simultaneous bilateral THA is a safe and effective choice for bilateral hip diseases.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and medicine treatment of patients with severe ulcerative colitis (UC),the efficacy of rescue treatment in patients with glucocorticoid (GCS) resistant severe UC,and the clinical risk factors in patients with GCS-refractory severe UC.Methods From January 2001 to December 2012,clinical,laboratory,endoscopy,imaging data and medication of treatment of 106 patients with severe UC were retrospectively analyzed.Then the patients were followed up,and the clinical efficacy and under endoscopic presentation of Mayo score were evaluated.Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the high risk factor of GCS-refractory severe UC.Results Among 106 patients with severe UC,95 were chronic relapse type accounting for 89.6 ％.The percentage of patients with defecation times over six was 73.6％ (78/106),with severe purulent bloody stool was 51.0％ (54/106),and with moderately or severe abdominal pain was 83.0％ (88/106).The percentage of diffuse colon type was 83.0％ (88/106),endoscopic presentation of Mayo score over two was 87.7％ (93/106).Hemoglobin decreased in 65.1％ (69/106) patients,blood platelet increased in 48.1％ (51/106) patients,C-reaction protein elevated in 88.7％ (94/106) patients,and hypoalbuminemia decreased in 42.5％ (45/106) patients.Account to 89.6％ (95/106) of patients with severe UC received GCS treatment,and the percentage of induced remission was 64.2％ (61/95),effective rate was 16.8％ (16/95),and ineffective rate was 18.9％ (18/95).The percentage of GCS refractory was 35.8％(34/95).There were 23 patients with GCS resistance and 11 patients with GCS dependence.Ten patients with GCS resistant severe UC accepted medicine rescue therapy.Five cases were treated with cyclosporin A,of which two cases induced remission,one case was effective,and two cases were ineffective.Another five cases were treated with infliximab,of which three cases induced remission,and two cases were ineffective.The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that severe anemia (OR=6.750,95％CI:2.656 to 17.152,P＜0.01),elevated blood platelets (OR=4.032,95％CI:1.226 to 13.261,P=0.015) and albumin level less than 25 g/L (OR =3.022,95 ％ CI:1.236 to 7.390,P =0.022) were risk factors of GCS-refractory severe UC.Conclusions GCS resistant or dependent occurred in part of patients with severe UC.Patients with G-CS resistant severe UC receive rescue treatment of cyclosporin A or infliximab.Severe anemia,elevated blood platelets,albumin less than 25 g/L may be clinical predicting factors in patients with GCS-refractory severe UC.

The development of agency of Pregnancy technique shakes the traditional reproductive ethic and challenges the present law as it brings happiness of being parents to infertile couples.We should not only recognize its rationality,but also alert its potential harnfulness to society and ethic.Reasonably taking advantage of agency of Pregnancy technique and working out relative legislation are two important ways to prevent the corresponding legal and ethical confusion

Objective To investigate the potential role of MCP-1/CCL2 in experimental acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) and complications. Methods 60 SD male rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: sham operation group ( n = 20 ), ANP group ( n = 20 ) and MCP-1 group ( n = 20 ). ANP model was induced by retrograde infusion of 3.5% sodium taurocholate, MCP-1 group received subcutaneous injection of MCP-1 antibody 0 h and 6 h after ANP induction. The serum levels of amylase, MCP-1, D-lactic acid,histological changes and the expression of MCP-1 mRNA of lung, small intestine and pancreas, the expression of MCP-1 protein in pancreas, MPO levels of small intestine MPO were determined. Results The serum levels of amylase, MCP-1, D-lactic acid in MCP-1 group at 12 h were (4666 ±412)U/L, (39.53 ±8.25)pg/ml and (6.3 ±2.2)mg/L, which were significantly lower than those in ANP group [ (9611 ±363)U/L, (63.42 ±9.32) pg/ml, (9.3 ± 2. 1 ) mg/L, P< 0.05 ) ]; the expression of MCP-1 mRNA in pancreas, small intestine and lung were 0.431 ± 0.009, 0. 211 ± 0.018 and 0.442 ± 0.017, which were significantly lower than those in ANP group [ (0.624 ±0. 010, 0. 523 ±0. 019 and 0. 569 ±0. 024, P <0.05) ]; the expression of MCP-1 protein in pancreas was 2.0 ± 0. 1, which was significantly lower than that in ANP group (4. 0 ± 0. 2, P <0.05). Lung and small intestine MPO were (11.1 ±3.0)U/g and ( 19.2 ±2.0)U/g, which were significantly lower than those in ANP group[(39.2±3.1)U/g and(13.1±2.1)U/g, P<0.05]. Conclusions Early blockade of MCP-1 not only attenuates the severity of ANP, but also decreases the degree of acute lung injury and intestine barrier dysfunction.

Objective To compare the effect and safety between cemented and uncemented long-stem hip arthroplasty for treatment of unstable intertrochanteric fracture in the elderly.Methods A retrospective review was made on 70 cases (70-87 years old) undergone artificial long-stem hip arthroplasty of unstable intertrochanteric fracture between June 2012 and June 2014.According to the material of prostheses,the cases were assigned to cemented group (n =36) and uncemented group (n =34).Operation-related index,postoperative complications,ambulation time,Harris hip score and prosthesis stability and excellent results were compared between the two groups.Results There were no significant differences in operation time,bleeding volume and ambulation time between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Postoperative drainage volume and blood transfusion volume in cemented group [(277.4 ± 22.0) ml and (245.1 ± 17.8) ml] were lower than these in uncemented group[(294.2 ± 33.7) ml and (262.8 ± 30.9)ml] (P ＜0.05).Harris scores in cemented group were higher than these in uncemented group 1 and 3 months after operation(P ＜0.05),and there were no significant differences 6 and 12 months after operation(P ＞ 0.05).Complication rate had no significant difference between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Two cases were died of cement poisoning,one case of subsequent acute myocardial infarction,and two cases of subsequent acute cerebral infarction.Sixty-five cases were followed up for 12-36 months,which showed no complications such as prosthesis loosening,displacement or infection.Prosthesis stability and treatment excellent rate between the two groups were not significantly different (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Clinical efficacy of the two treatments is comparable,including good function recovery and early off-bed activity.Cemented long-stem hip arthroplasty reduces blood requirements,but the risk of cement poisoning exists.

Objective To explore the effects of residual renal function (RRF) on quality of life (QOL) in patients with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD),and analyze the factors influencing QOL.Methods One hundred and eighteen patients treated with CAPD for at least 3 months in No.455 Hospital of People's Liberation Army were enrolled.All patients were divided into two groups according to residual glomerular filtration rate (rGFR):the group with RRF [rGFR≥ 1 ml·min-1 · (1.73 m2)-1],and the group without RRF [rGFR ＜ 1ml · min-1 · (1.73 m2)-1].The demographic characteristics,laboratory data,cardiothoracic ratio,dialysis adequacy parameters,rGFR,blood pressure,urine volume,ultrafiltration volume and dialysis prescription were investigated.Patient's QOL was evaluated by Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36).Results There was no significant differences between the groups with and without RRF in the age,gender,causes of disease,complication,body mass index (BMI),systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP),haemoglobin (Hb),cholesterol,triglyceride,high-density lipoprotein,low-density lipoprotein,normalized protein catabolic rate (nPCR) and cardiothoracic ratio (all P ＞ 0.05).Compared with the patients with RRF,PD duration,ultrafiltration volume,serum creatinine (Scr),calcium,phosphorus,C-reactive protein (CRP),parathyroid hormone (PTH) and peritoneal dialysis dose in the patients without RRF were significantly higher,and urine volume,serum albumin (Alb),potassium,and urea total Kt/V were significantly lower (all P ＜ 0.05).The patients without RRF had a significantly lower score in physical function and physical component summary as compared to the patients with RRF (all P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant differences in role physical,bodily pain,general health,vitality,social function,role emotional,mental health,mental component summary and SF-36 scores (all P ＞ 0.05).Simple linear regression showed that there was no correlation between rGFR and SF-36 scores (β=1.330,P=0.070).Multiple linear regression revealed that SF-36 scores were correlated with CRP (β=-0.477,P ＜ 0.001),Scr (β=0.020,P ＜ 0.001),cardiothoracic ratio (β=-57.823,P=0.004),Alb (β=0.772,P=0.016) and ultrafiltration volume (β=-0.006,P=0.031),but not correlated with rGFR (β=0.099,P=0.302).Conclusions PD patients without and with RRF perceived different scores in physical health,but their scores were similar in mental health and QOL.RRF was no related to QOL in PD patients.Chronic inflammation,fluid overload and malnutrition were the main factors that affect QOL.

Objective To explore the independent risk factors of lymph-node metastasis (LNM) in patients with early gastric cancer (EGC),and establish a risk-prediction model based on LNM.Method 962 early gastric cancer patients undergoing curative radical gastrectomy in the First Hospital of Anhui Medical University from July 2011 to April 2016 were enrolled in this study.The relationships between different clinicopathologic characteristics and LNM were analyzed by Chi-square test or Fisher exact probability,and the independent risk factors were determined using Logistic regression analysis.Moreover,LNM risk was stratified and a risk-predicting model was established on the basis of the identified independent risk factors for LNM.Further,the risk-predicting model was validated using 962 EGC cases.The discriminatory accuracy of risk-predicting model was measured by area under ROC curve (ROC-AUC).Results Mucosal differentiated cancer ≤2 cm,irrespective of the existence of an ulcer,had low LNM rates (LNMR ＜ 3.0％).Univariate and multivariate analysis revealed that female EGC patients with submucosal,undifferentiated,vessel invasion and tumor size ＞ 2 cm were independent risk factors of LNM for EGC patients,and relative risks were 1.893,3.173,1.956,1.922 and 9.027 respectively (P ＜ 0.05).ROCAUC of risk-predicting model was 0.768 (P ＜ 0.01),which showed high diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity.Conclusion Female EGC patients with submucosal undifferentiated carcinomas measuring ＞ 2 cm with vessel invasion have higher risk of LNM.
