Objective To explore the differences and similarities of clinical characteristics,pathological features, treatment and prognosis between primary gastric lymphoma(PGL)and primary intestinal lymphoma (PIL). Methods The clinical characteristics, pathological features, therapeutic results, the detection of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) and prognosis of 48 PGL cases and 15 PIL cases were retrospectively analyzed. Results There was no statistical significance in age, gender, abdominal pain, gastrointestinal bleeding, B symptoms, clinical stage, mortality between PGL and PIL groups (P>0. 05). However, there were significant differences in the pathological type, acute abdomen emergency surgery between these two groups (P<0. 05). There was 12 Hp positive cases in mucosalassociated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma of PGL group (12/19), and 5 Hp positive cases in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (5/20). There was significant difference in Hp detection rate of these two pathological types. Hp was not found in PIL group. The Cox multivariate analysis indicated that stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ was the independent adverse factors affecting PGL prognosis (P<0. 05).Conclusions Mainly histological types are DLBCL and MALT lymphoma in PGL, and DLBCL in PIL.PIL predispose to T-cell lymphoma compared with PGL. MALT lymphoma is rare in PIL group. The mainly clinical stage is Ⅲ-Ⅳ both in PGL group and PIL group. Emergency surgery is often needed in PIL because of intussusception or perforation. The prognosis of PGL is correlated with the stage and the prognosis of PIL are correlated with the stage, B symptoms and T cell phenotype.

Objective To explore the distribution and characteristics of initial PSA and PSA velocity in men younger than years without prostate cancer. Methods PSA in men younger than 50 years without prostate cancer from January 2001 to November 2009 were retrieved retrospectively from our computer center. PSA velocity was calculated if their PSA was measured twice or more. The distributions of initial PSA and PSA velocity were analyzed. The correlations between initial PSA, initial PSA age, and PSA velo-city were also analyzed. Kaplan-meier and log-rank tests were used to estimate the significant difference at the risk of PSA≥ 2.5 ng/ml after initial PSA measurement, stratified by median initial PSA (0.6 ng/ml). Results A total of 4206 men without prostate cancer were included. The median initial PSA value in these men was 0.6 ng/ml. Of these men, 1026 (24.4%), 177 (4.2%), and 90 (2.1%) had an initial PSA≥1.0, ≥2.5, and ≥4.0 ng/ml, respectively. A total of 417 men had their PSA measured these men, 25 (6.0%), 13 (3.1%), and 8 (1.9%) had a PSA velocity≥0.35, ≥0.75, initial PSA age and initial PSA, initial PSA age and PSA velocity, and initial PSA and PSA velocity (correlation coefficient r=0.019, -0.015, and -0.006, respectively; P=0.218, 0.754, and 0.897, respectively). After a follow-up of up to 7.1 years from baseline PSA measurement, the risk of PSA≥2.5 ng/ml, stratified by median initial PSA (0.6 ng/ml) was significantly different (log-rank test, P<0.001). Conclusions The median baseline PSA and PSA velocity in men younger than 50 years old without prostate cancer are 0.6 ng/ml and 0.03 cancer with an initial PSA higher than median (0.6 ng/ml) have a subsequently higher risk of PSA value ≥2.5 ng/ml.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the diagnostic capacity and its influencing factors in the toxicologic pathology diagnostic laboratories in China. METHODS: Inter-laboratory comparison of toxicologic pathology diagnosis was cosponsored by Chinese Society of Toxicology-Toxicologic Pathology Specialty Section and Guangdong Province Hospital for Occupational Disease Prevention and Treatment. Nine digital slices of digestive system lesions were screened as comparison samples,and the reference institution with toxicologic pathology diagnostic laboratories completed the diagnosis within the prescribed time. According to the three grades of “excellent”,“satisfaction”and “dissatisfaction”,the evaluation was carried out.RESULTS: A total of 74 reference institution participated in this comparison,which distributed in 20 provinces and 4 municipalities and 156 pathologists. The reference institutions were mainly distributed in North China,Southern China and East China. There was an average of 2 pathologists per laboratory,and in the quantity of academic title,the junior,intermediate,and senior was 15,70 and 46 persons respectively. Parasitic hepatocyte cysts( 97. 3%),adenocarcinoma of small intestine( 95. 9%) and polyarteritis nodosa of the pancreas( 89. 2%) had the highest rate of “excellent”grade,while the duodenal gland inflammation( 67. 6%),foam cell aggregation in colonic propria( 40. 5%) and hepatoma adenoma( 32. 4%) had the highest rate of dissatisfaction grade in the evaluation of single case. In the overall evaluation,reference laboratories reached the “excellent”grade and the “satisfaction”grade were 78. 4% and 21. 6% respectively.The number of pathologists provided by each reference laboratory had impacts on the overall evaluation level and the single case evaluation( neoplastic lesions) in the evaluation of single case( P < 0. 05). The types of the reference laboratory,the regional distribution and the grade of the academic title had no effect on the diagnostic ability( P > 0. 05). CONCLUSION: The reference laboratory is superior in diagnosing the digestive system lesions in the inter-laboratory comparison activity.The number of pathologists in the reference laboratory is one of the influencing factors of its diagnostic ability.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the diagnostic ability of toxicity pathology in patho-toxicological testing institutions in China. METHODS: The institutions participated in the 2018 Interlaboratory Comparison Activity of Toxicity Pathology Testing(hereinafter referred to as reference unit) were selected as the research subjects. The heart, spleen, skin, soft tissue, liver and mammary gland of SD rats of different groups in the 2-year carcinogenesis test were selected. The femur, knee joint and nose of Beagle dogs in the 4-week toxicity test and a total of 10 pathological tissues were selected as the comparison samples. The pathological diagnosis was carried out by the pathological diagnostic personnel of the reference unit, and the diagnostic results were reported. The expert appointed by the Toxicology and Pathology Committee of Chinese Toxicology Association compared the diagnostic results with the appointed value. RESULTS: A total of 167 pathological diagnostic personnel from 75 reference units in 24 provinces and municipalities participated in the comparison activity. The reference units were mainly distributed in East China, South China and North China, accounting for 77.3%(58/75). Totally 75 reference units fed back 750 effective diagnostic results. The qualified rates of diagnosis on heart, spleen, skin, soft tissue and breast samples were higher than 60.0%. The qualified rates of diagnosis on femur and knee joint, and nose samples were low(30.7% and 6.7%, respectively). There were 1(1.3%), 46(61.4%) and 28(37.3%) reference units rated as unqualified, qualified and excellent, respectively. CONCLUSION: Most of the testing institutions in China have a high level of patho-toxicological diagnostic ability, that can provide reliable diagnostic results for toxicology safety evaluation tests.
