Purpose To measure the nuclear morphological parameters of breast cancer to study the relationship between nuclear mor-phological parameters and ER, PR, HER-2 expression, and clinicopathologic features of breast carcinoma. Methods 388 cases of breast cancer specimens were collected and molecular classification was made according to ER, PR and HER-2 expression. the nucleus parameters were measured by image analysis software after HE staining. The difference among groups was statistically analysed, and follow-up was done by phone or by hospitalization. Results Among the 4 groups of breast cancer case, the differences of circle diame-ter, area and perimeter edges of the nucleus were statistically significant (P<0.05). Nuclear morphometric quantitation between ER+/PR+ patients and ER-/PR- patients was statistically significantly differentice (P<0.05). The majority of patients with ER-/PR- were histological gradeⅢand poor survival rate (P<0.05). The disease-free survival in Luminal A type was higher than that of Basal-like type (P<0.05), and its overall survival was higher than HER-2 over-expression (P<0. 05) and Basal-like type (P<0.05) . Conclusion The nucleus morphological quantitation in breast cancer is of significant difference, which has certain reference value in its molecular typing. The result of ER, PR and HER-2 expression, combined with nuclear morphology measurement, are meaningful to the treatment and assessment of prognosis.

Purpose To investigate the expression of GATA3 in breast tumors and its clinical significance. Methods Immunohisto-chemistry EnVision method was used to detect the expression of GATA3 protein in 132 cases of breast malignant tumor tissue, 29 cases of breast benign tumor tissue, 35 cases of breast carcinoma adjacent tissue. Besides, the GATA3 expression level was compared with several clinicopathological parameters. Result (1) All the breast normal tissues expressed GATA3, while 77% of the breast cancer tissue were found to be GATA3 positive. (2) GATA3 did not expressed in diffuse large B cell lymphoma and spindle cell malignant tumor of breast. (3) In the triple negative breast cancer, the expression of GATA3 was lower than that of any other subtypes of breast carcinoma (χ2 =29. 354, P<0. 001). Conclusion The positive expression of GATA3 is correlated to classification and grade in breast tumor. Detection of the expression of this biological maker may provide a valuable marker for the differential diagnosis and prog-nostic of breast carcinoma.

Objective:To study the efficacy and safety of early abdominal puncture drainage (APD) in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 189 patients with SAP who were managed at the Department of Intensive Medicine of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from January 2013 to May 2020. According to whether ultrasound-guided APD was performed within one week after admission to ICU, these patients were divided into 2 groups: patients treated with APD (the APD group) and patients treated without APD (the non-APD group). Clinical data, including the acute physiological and chronic health status (APACHE) Ⅱ score, modified Marshall score, sequential organ failure evaluation (SOFA) score, and prognostic indicators including the retroperitoneal percutaneous drainage (PCD) rate and length of hospital stay, were compared between the two groups before and 1 week after surgery.Results:Of the 189 SAP patients in this study, there were 110 males and 79 females, aged (52.5±17.4) years old. On admission to ICU, the blood amylase, C-reactive protein, procalcalonin, interleukin-6, APACHE II score, modified Marshall score and SOFA score in the APD group were significantly higher than those in the non-APD group. After 1 week of treatment, most clinical indicators in the 2 groups were significantly improved, and there were no significant differences between these indicators (all P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the abdominal infection, retroperitoneal PCD and mortality rates between the APD group and the non-APD group ( P>0.05). The length of hospital stay [29 (18, 45) vs 21 (15, 32) d] and ICU stay [5 (3, 11) vs. 7 (5, 17) d] in the APD group were significantly higher than those in the non-APD group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:For patients with SAP with peritoneal effusion, early APD effectively improved the condition and prognosis without increasing the peritoneal infection and mortality rates.

Objective To evaluate the mediating effect of lifestyles on the association between family history and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Methods This study was based on the "Early Screening and Comprehensive Intervention of High-risk Populations of Cardiovascular Disease Project". The data were collected from 6 project sites in Hubei Province. Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the impact of family history and lifestyle on CVD, and the relationship between family history and lifestyle. Mediation analysis was used to evaluate the mediating effect of lifestyle on the association between family history and CVD. Results A total of 5 871 subjects were included in the study from 2015 to 2016, of whom 500 (8.52%) developed CVD and 484 had family history of CVD. The risk of developing CVD was significantly increased in participants with family history of disease (OR = 1.458, P = 0.014) and in those with high level of physical activity (OR = 1.081, P = 0.026). The increase of leisure physical activity time showed a protective effect on developing CVD (OR = 0.977, P < 0.001). Participants with family history significantly increased leisure physical activity (OR = 2.085, P < 0.001), and were less likely to choose occupations with high levels of physical activity (OR = 0.524, P < 0.001). The results of mediation analysis showed that leisure physical activity and occupational physical activity mediated the relationship between family history and CVD, and the β value of the mediating effects were -0.004 (P = 0.010) and 0.002 (P = 0.045), respectively. The β value of the direct effect of family history on CVD was 0.033 (P < 0.05). Conclusion Leisure physical activity and occupational physical activity might mediate the relationship between family history and CVD. People with family history would reduce the risk of developing CVD by increasing leisure physical activity time and choosing occupations with low levels of physical activity.

Purpose To explore the clinicopathological re-lationship between tumor budding and KRAS,NRAS,BRAF gene mutations and MSI status in colorectal adenocarcinoma and their clinical significance.Methods The clinical data of 237 cases of colorectal adenocarcinoma were collected to interpret tumor budding.RT-PCR was used to detect the gene mutations of KRAS,NRAS,BRAF in 229 cases and to analyze the corre-lation between tumor budding and gene mutations.MSI was de-tected by PCR and its relationship with tumor budding was ana-lyzed.Results Of the 237 patients,147 showed low-to medi-um-grade tumor budding and 90 showed high-grade tumor bud-ding.Tumor budding was associated with tumor size,vascular involvement,perineural invasion,tumor differentiation,lymph node metastasis,tumor nodule formation,tumor recurrence and TNM staging(P＜0.05),while it was not associated with age,sex and location.Single factor logistic regression analysis showed that tumor budding was associated with the risk of lymph node metastasis(P＜0.05),while multivariate logistic regres-sion analysis showed that tumor budding was an independent pre-dictor of lymph node metastasis in colorectal adenocarcinoma(P＜0.05).Of the 229 cases,the mutation rate of KRAS,NRAS and BRAF was 42.4％,2.6％and 3.1％,respectively.A-mong KRAS,NRAS and BRAF mutation cases,the proportion of high-grade tumor budding was 56.7％,33.3％and 14.3％,respectively.Tumor budding was associated with mutations in the Kras 12 and Kras 13 codons,as well as KRAS total muta-tions(P＜0.05).However,tumor budding had no relationship with NRAS and BRAF.In the high-grade budding tumors,KRAS mutations were mainly KRAS codons 12 and 13.Among the cases with KRAS mutation,the disease-free survival time and total survival time of the cases with high-grade tumor bud-ding were significantly shorter(P＜0.05).Of the 237 patients,the rate of MSI-H was 6.8％and only 2 out of 16 MSI-H pa-tients had high-grade tumor budding.There was a negative cor-relation between tumor budding and MSI status(r=-0.143,P＜0.05).Conclusion Tumor budding is related to the muta-tions in the Kras 12 and Kras 13 codons,as well as total KRAS mutations and MSI status.Tumor budding is also related to the prognosis of patients with colorectal adenocarcinoma,which can provide a reference for their outcome judgment.

Objective : To analyze the difference of urinary iodine level in Hashimoto thyroiditis ( HT) patients， and to explore the possible relationship between urinary iodine level and HT under different iodine nutritional sta- tus，so as to provide some references for reasonable iodine intake in HT patients． Methods : A total of 101 hospi- talized HT patients were selected as HT group and divided into 3 groups according to thyroid function : HT group with hyperthyroidism (41 cases) ．There were 25 cases in HT group with normal thyroid function．There were 35 cases in HT combined with hypothyroidism group．In addition，30 healthy subjects were selected as control group. Serum levels of thyroid stimulating hormone(TSH) ，triiodothyronine(T3 ) ，thyroxine (T4 ) ，thyroid peroxidase an- tibody (TPOAb) and thyroglobulin antibody (ATG) were detected by chemiluminescence assay．The size and mor- phological structure of thyroid organs were examined by ultrasonography．Urinary iodine was determined by catalytic spectrophotometry with arsenic and cerium．The nutritional status of iodine was classified into iodine deficiency ( < 100 μg/ L) ，iodine adequacy( 100 －199 μg/ L) ，iodine adequacy (200 －299 μg/ L) and iodine excess ( ≥ 300 μg/ L) ．Non-parametric test was used to compare urinary iodine level between HT group and control group，one- way ANOVA and t test were used to compare urinary iodine level between HT group and control group ，and Spearman correlation analysis was used to compare the correlation between urinary iodine level and T3 ，T4 ，TSH， ATG and TPOAb under different iodine nutrition status. Results : Compared with control group，ATG and TPOAb levels in HT group increased (P＜0. 001) ，and urinary iodine levels increased (P＜0. 05) ，with statistical signifi- cance．Compared with the control group in different thyroid function states，only the HT group with hypothyroidism increased the urinary iodine level (P＜0. 01) ，and the difference was statistically significant．Spearman correlation analysis showed that urine iodine level was positively correlated with ATG and TPOAb levels in iodine excess condi- tion (P＜0. 05) ，and urine iodine level was positively correlated with TSH level in iodine sufficient condition and iodine excess condition in HT patients (P＜0. 05) ． Conclusion The urinary iodine level of HT patients was high- er than that of normal people．When the urinary iodine level of residents is ≥ 300 μg/ L，iodine intake is prone to HT．When the urinary iodine level of HT patients is ≥ 200 μg/ L，iodine consumption is prone to hypothyroidism， and iodine intake should be limited.

Objective To analyze the equity of the allocation of oral medical resources and the accessibility of health service capabilities in Wuhan. Methods The equity of oral medical resources was calculated with Gini coefficient and Theil index, accessibility was assessed by two-step floating catchment area model, and the spatial autocorrelation was used to study the high-low clustering of accessibility. Results The Gini coefficient of oral medical resources based on population level was around 0.3, and the Gini coefficient of oral medical resources based on geographic area was greater than 0.6. Theil index calculation results were similar. In terms of overall accessibility, the area with poor accessibility was 2,428 square kilometers, reaching 28.38% of the total area, while the area with better accessibility accounted for 14.18%. Conclusion The allocation of oral medical care resources based on population distribution was fairer and better than that based on geographic area. Moreover, the geographical accessibility varies greatly between regions, showing the characteristics of high-high cluster and low-low cluster.
