Objective:To investigate the distribution of precancerous conditions and lesions of high-risk population in the high-in-cidence area of esophageal cancer in Ci County, Hebei Province. Methods:Esophageal cancer was detected early in 40 to 69 year old patients in Ci Xian through endoscopic screening data and endoscopic screening using iodine staining and indicative biopsy. The pa-tients were classified according to gender, age group, statistical esophageal precancerous condition, and lesion detection rate. Results:The analysis included 11 423 cases by screening queue, and the esophageal biopsy rate was 66.90%. The detection rates of squamous epithelium with mild, moderate, and severe dysplasia were 11.84%, 2.66%, and 1.04%, respectively. DCIS detection rate was 0.40%in patients with squamous cell carcinoma. The detection rate of the patients had been infiltrated by the squamous cell carcinoma was 0.04%.The rate of the squamous cell carcinoma within the mucosa was 0.37%.The rate of the infiltration squamous cell carcinoma was 0.17%. The detection rate of the hyperplasia above average severe dysplasia and cancer was 2.01%. Conclusion: High incidence of esophageal precancerous lesions was found in the Ci County aged 40 to 69. A large number of asymptomatic patients with cancer were detected. Age and sex are closely related to detection rate.

Iatrogenic traumatic biliary stricture is one of the difficult points in the biliary surgery,and operation is the only definitive treatment. The operative opportunity,surgical procedure and techniques are important for the prognosis.From January 1998 to December 2011,173 patients with iatrogenic traumatic stricture were admitted to the Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital. According to the Bismuth classification of traumatic biliary stricture,10 patients were in type Ⅰ,22 in type Ⅱ,87 in type Ⅲ,38 in type Ⅳ and 16 in type Ⅴ.Excision of the traumatic stricture with end-to-end anastomosis was performed on 19 patients.Of the 173 patients,154 were treated by Roux-en-Y duodenojejunostomy, and 8 of them received additional hemihepatectomy or partial hepatectomy.A total of 155patients were followed up,with a median time of 74 months,the total excellent and good rate was 94.8％ ( 147/155 ).Surgery is the most effective therapy for iatrogenic traumatic biliary stricture. Optimal timing, reasonable surgical methods, strictly following the principle of biliary surgery and perfect operative skills are key points for a better prognosis.

Objective: Epithelial dysplasia of the esophagus and gastric cardia is precancerous lesion, including mild, moderate and severe levels. In 2000 year, WHO recommended to replace dysplasia with intraepithelial neoplasia. Mild and moderate dysplasia were classified as low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LIN). Cardia adenocarcinoma was suggested to be called esophageal-gastric junction adenocarcinoma. The risk of cancer development and the rule of time evolution were detected in esophagus and esophageal-gastdc junction LIN in high incidence area of esophageal cancer in Northern China, in an effort to provide scientific data for the prevention of esophageal cancer. Methods: Between October 2001 and October 2002, two townships of Cixian were chosen to carry out endoscopic iodine staining screening cohort study. The total population aged 0-85 was 22,016, of which 6,596 aged 40-69 (3257 males and 3339 females). Except for thoese with contraindications and those who refused to join the study, 3,506 cases were finally recruited in the study, and the screening rate was 53.2%. According to WHO criteria of the pathological diagnosis, the esophageal squamous epithelium with mild and moderate dysplasia and esophageal-gastric junction with mild dysplasia were classified into LIN groups (including 616 cases). The control group contained a total of 2,478 cases without precancerous lesions and free of cancer in endoscopic screening. Results: From June to September in 2008, the cohort was followed up and 174 cases were lost, with a follow-up rate of 95.0%. Follow-up was 3,970.7 person- years in the LIN group and 16,120.0 person-years in the control group.Carcinomous conversion rates were 251.7 and 68.2/per 100,000 person- years respectively in the LIN group and the control group. The median time in the two groups was 38 and 47 months, respectively. Compared with that of the normal population, the relative risk (RR) of LIN was 3.69 (95% CI=1.57-8.69, P=0.001). Conclusion: Population with LIN are at high-risk for esophageal cancer and endoscopic examination every year is absolutely necessary.

AIM: To investigate the effect of 17?-estradiol on insulin action in cultured C2C12 mytoblasts. METHODS: C2C12 mytoblasts were cultured in 35 mm wells of six-well culture plate in an atmosphere of 5% CO 2 at 37℃ in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and penicillin/streptomycin(1?10 5 U/L) to reach 80% confluence. Insulin-resistance C2C12 mytoblasts were obtained by incubating the cells for 24 hours in the presence of a high concentration (5?10 -7 mol/L) of insulin. After treatmented with 17?-estradiol (1 nmol/L and 10 nmol/L, respectively) for 24 hours, C2C12 mytoblasts were performed to measure insulin-stimulated 2-DG uptake and GS, PFK, PK activities. RESULTS: 17?-estradiol enhanced the capacity of insulin-stimulited 2-DG uptake, increased the GS, PFK and PK activities and prevented insulin-induced resistance in cultured C2C12 mytoblasts. CONCLUSION: 17?-estradiol potentiates insulin action and preventes insulin-induced resistance in cultured C2C12 mytoblasts.

Objective To study the efficacy and the safe dosage of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation in pancreatic cancer.Methods From November 2010 to May 2013,21 patients with advanced pancreatic cancer were treated by HIFU at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University.These patients who were randomly divided into two groups (10 and 11 patients respectively),were given a low-power (100～249 W) treatment and a high power (250 ～350 W) treatment.These two groups of 21 patients received a total of 25 times of HIFU treatment (3 patients received twice of low-power treatment,while 1 patient received twice of high-power treatment).The two groups were compared by analyzing the treatment parameters (average power,total treatment time,treatment total energy,treatment volume,etc.) and volume of tumour response as shown on postoperative imaging (CT or MRI) examinations.Also,the complications,degree of pain relief and survival were compared.The energy efficiency factor (EEF) and the ablation ratio were calculated.A preliminary study was conducted on the relationship of the ultrasound dose and the ablation effect of HIFU treatment for pancreatic cancer.Results (1) The EEF of the high-power group (≥250 W) and the low-power group (＜ 250 W) were (10.39 ± 5.71) J/mm3 and (21.62 ± 9.81) J/mm3,the former group was significantly lower than the latter group (P ＜0.05) ; the ablation ratio of the high-power group was higher than the low-power group,(91.52 ± 4.18)％ versus (51.59 ± 7.66)％ respectively,the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.001).(2) The efficiency factor and the ablation volume for the HIFU treatment showed a linear trend,and both were negatively correlated (Pearson correlation coefficient r =-0.485,P ＜ 0.05).(3) There was no serious complication after the HIFU treatment.In the low-power group,six of ten patients were alleviated of his pain (60％) ; the CA19-9 decreased in four of ten patients after HIFU treatment (40％).In the high-power group,nine of eleven patients were significantly relieved of pain after treatment (82％),the CA19-9 decreased in five of nine patients after HIFU treatment (56％).(4) On Kaplan-Meier survival analysis,HIFU treatment of patients with pancreatic cancer,the median survival was 8 months and 9 months in the low-power group and high power group,respectively (Log-rank test x2 =0.05,P =0.944).Conclusion During HIFU treatment of patients with pancreatic cancer,if the ultrasound power was between 250 W and 350 W,there was a higher proportion of tumor ablation,but with no serious complications.Thus,this dose was safe.

Objective: To analyze the long-term trend of mortality and years of life lost (YLL) of gastric cancer in Tianjin from 1999 to 2015. Methods: From January 1, 1999 to December 31, 2015, the data of gastric cancer deaths was collected from the Tianjin death surveillance system. The inclusion criteria of death due to gastric cancer were coded by using 151 in the 9^th edition of the international classification of diseases (ICD) (1999-2002) and C16 in the 10^th edition of ICD (2003-2015). The crude and age-standardized mortality rate (ASR) of gastric cancer was calculated according to Segi′s world standard population. YLL was calculated according to the standard method of the disease burden of WHO. The Joinpoint regression was used to calculate the average annual percentage change (AAPC) to indicate the trend of mortality and YLL of gastric cancer. Results: From 1999 to 2015, there were 20 000 deaths of gastric cancer in Tianjin. The proportion of gastric cancer death in the population aged 0-44 years old, 45-64 years old, and 65 years old and above was 4.9%, 30.4%, and 64.8%, respectively. The proportion of males and urban was 67.1% and 67.5%, respectively. From 1999 to 2015, the crude mortality rate was from 12.10/100 000 to 12.58/100 000. The ASR was from 11.04/100 000 to 7.24/100 000. The average annual YLL number was 29 625.83 person-years and the rate was 3.09 person-years per thousand people. From 1999 to 2015, the crude mortality rate and the PYLL of gastric cancer in Tianjin were stable (the AAPC was 0.34% and -0.24%, all P values >0.05). The ASR showed a downward trend (AAPC=-2.58%, P<0.001). Conclusion From 1999 to 2015, the ASR of gastric cancer in Tianjin showed a downward trend, and the YLL of gastric cancer was stable.

To investigate the effects of sanguinarine (Sang) combined with cisplatin (Cis) in accelerating the apoptosis of bladder cancer EJ cells, CCK-8 method was used to detect the proliferation of bladder cancer EJ cells treated with different concentrations of Sang with the IC50 values calculated. Annexin V FITC/PI method was used to detect cell apoptosis in the control group, Sang group, Cis group and the combination group. Flow cytometer was used to detect cell cycle arrested. Western blot was used to detect the influence of Bcl-2 expression in the control group, Sang group, Cis group and the combination group. Nude mouse subcutaneous tumor model was constructed to verify that the combination group could accelerate the apoptosis of bladder cancer EJ cells and reduce the side-effects on mice. The safety of the Sang was evaluated by HE staining of vital organs in mice. In vitro, Sang could significantly inhibit the proliferation of EJ cells. Compared with the control group, the number of apoptosis EJ cells in the combination group was significantly increased (P < 0.05), and more cells were arrested in G2/M phase. The expression of Bcl-2 was significantly down-regulated in the combination group (P <0.001). In vivo, compared with the control group, the tumor growth was significantly slower, and a large number of apoptotic cells were inspected (P < 0.05) of the combination group. The side effects of cisplatin were reduced in the combination group. Sang has high biosafety and little side effect. Combined Sang and Cis can increase cell cycle G2/M block, down-regulate Bcl-2 expression, promote cell apoptosis and inhibit tumor growth.

Objective: To understand physical activity status of children and adolescents in Tujia inhabited areas, and to provide reference for the intervention model of physical activity of children and adolescents in minority areas. Methods: A cluster sample of 2 466 Tujia pupils from two primary schools in Lichuan City, Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture of Hubei Province was selected to investigate physical activity status of Tujia pupils. The univariate χ 2 test was used to analyze the physical activity status of Tujia children and adolescents and its influencing factors. Results: The median duration of high intensity activity was 49.9 minutes/day in the last week, and 47.93% of participants met the physical activity standard( χ 2=80.47, P <0.01), the median duration of sitting was 396.1 minutes/day in the last week, and the qualified rate of screen time was 78.99%, and the differences of qualified rate between daystudents and residential students were of statistical differences( χ 2=35.12, P <0.01)). Conclusion The children and adolescents in the Tujia community are lack of physical activity. Therefore, it is necessary to take effective intervention measures to pay attention to the children and adolescents physical activity.
