Objective To investigate the features and risk factors associated with lymph node metastasis in colorectal neuroendocrine neoplasm.Methods Clinical and pathological data of 63 patients with colorectal neuroendocrine neoplasm treated in Yinzhou People's Hospital between June 1997 to December 2012,were analyzed retrospectively.Comparisons of categorical data and univariate analysis of risk factors of lymph node metastasis were conducted by x2 test,multivariate analysis was conducted by Logistic regression analysis.Results Of the 63 patients the rate of regional lymph node metastasis was 30％ (19/63) with 58％ limited to para-intestinal lymph nodes in 11 cases,26％ limited to mesenteric lymph nodes in 5 cases,and 16％ limited to mesenteric root central lymph nodes in 3 cases.No metastasis exceeding central lymph nodes was observed.According to univariate analysis,tumor size,depth of invasion,ulceration in mucous membrane,invasion of lymphatic vessel and pathological grading suggested by WHO were related to regional lymph node metastasis (P ＜ 0.01).Multivariate regression analysis revealed that tumor size,invasion of lymphatic vessel and pathological grading were independent risk factors for lymph node metastasis in colorectal neuroendocrine neoplasm (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Colorectal neuroendocrine neoplasm with larger tumor size,invasion of lymphatic vessel or higher grade (G2,G3) has high risk of regional lymph node metastasis.

Objective To preliminarily proved that the cerebellar hypothalamic pathways regulate inflammatory cytokines involved in post?stroke depression(post?stroke depression,PSD). Methods 160 male(Sprague?Dawley,SD)rats were randomly divided into sham operation group,the stroke group,PSD group,kainic acid(kainic acid,KA)damage of cerebellar fastigial nucleus group,electrical damaged decussation of superior cer?ebellar peduncle(superior cerebellar peduncle,xSCP)group. The behavioral observation were observed and expression of IL?1βand TNF?αin hip?pocampus by immunohistochemistry. Results Compared with the sham operation group and stroke group,PSD group,TNF?α,IL?1βcontent signif?icantly increased;and the factor of rats with KA group and xSCP group expression consistent with PSD group,there was no significant difference among the three groups. Conclusion The cerebellar fastigial nuclear may through the cerebellar hypothalamic pathways regulate inflammatory cyto?kines and participate in post stroke depression.

Objective To evaluate the value of endoscopic profile in an adult population with typical heartburn. Methods Clinical and endoscopic data were collected from 5042 consecutive outpatients who underwent routine upper endoscopy without any alarm features between March 2006 and Feb. 2007. Results Three hundred and thirteen (6.2%) patients were diagnosed as having typical heartburn. Of these, erosive esophagitis (EE) was found in 99 (31.6%) patients, Barrett's esophagus (BE) in 10 (3. 2%) patients, peptic ulcer disease (PUD) in 21 (6. 7%) patients and carcinoma in three (0.9 %) patients (1 with esophageal carcinoma and 2 with gastric adenocarcinoma).Multivariate analysis revealed that age＞50, male, overweight and alcohol use were independent risk factors for positive endoscopy findings (P＜0.05) and EE (P＜0.05) in heartburn patients. Male and Helicobacter pylori infection were independent risk factors for PUD (P＜ 0.05). Conclusions In China, patients with typical heartburn but without alarm features, early endoscopic examination may be helpful in avoiding missing diagnosis of tumor.

Objective To evaluate retrospectively the image quality and detection of nodules with low-dose chest computed tomography (LDCT)by photon detector and iterative reconstruction (IR).Methods Sixty-six patients with lung nodules underwent routine LDCT with image reconstruction using filtered back projection (FBP).These patients were followed up by LDCT with photon detector 6 months later with image reconstruction using FBP and SAFIRE.Image quality and detection rate of the nodules were compared among groups including routine LDCT,photon decector+FBP and photon Decector+IR groups.Results Noise was decreased and SNR was increased in turn for routine LDCT,photon detector+FBP and photon detector +IR,exhibiting statistical differences (all P<0.001).The CT image quality score among routine LDCT,photon decector+ FBP and photon decector+ IR groups were increased in turn with statistical differences (χ2 =32.65,P<0.001).132 lung solid nodules (SN)were all identified in three groups with average diameter of (5.13±1.49)mm, (5.1 1±1.57)mm and (5.08±1.54)mm,respectively,and the difference was not statistically significant (P >0.05).14 ground glass nodules (GGN )in routine LDCT group and 15 in other two groups were identified with the average diameter of (6.44±1.86)mm, (7.23±1.74)mm and (7.31±1.68)mm,respectively.The ability of routine LDCT to detect the GGNs was lower than that of the others.Conclusion Photon detector and IR are able to decrease image noise,improve image quality,and increase detection rate and measurement accuracy of GGN.
