Objective To explore the clinico-biological characteristics, treatment and prognosis of salivary duct carcinoma. Methods This study included 12 cases of salivary duct carcinoma treated in our hospital. Clinical data were retrospectively analyzed for patients admitted between April 1995 and October 2006. The clinical characteristics, histological features, imaging, therapy methods and prognosis were analyzed. Results Of 12 salivary duct carcinoma, there were 10 males, 2 females. The age of onset ranged from 53 to 73 year old and the average was 56 year old. Physical examination revealed a firm and unboundary mass accompanied by nerve infiltrating symptom. The histological appearance was characterized by solid cell nests with ductal structures and central comedonecrosis. Extensive resection and radical neck dissection was performed in 11 patients, postoperation radiation done in 10 patients and chemotherapy in 3 patients. One year survival rate was 83. 33% , that of 3 years was 41. 67% , and of 5 years was 25. 00% , the median survival time was 36 months. Conclusion Salivary duct carcinoma is a rare malignant salivary tumor and most patients are men. Regional extensive resection and postoperative radiation or chemotherapy are the mainstay of therapy. Lymph node metastases in level Ⅰ ,Ⅱ , Ⅲ are a common finding in patients with SDC and the prognosis is poor.

Objective To explore risk factors of cardiac surgery in neonates with low body weight.Methods Retrospective analysis was made in neonates weighing less than 3 kg at surgery(n =192;group 1) and 3 to 6 kg(n =517;group 2),who had undergone open cardiac repairs from January 2006 to December 2015 at our institution.Patients were grouped according to the primary procedure performed and analyzed according to their weight at the time of surgical intervention.Patients were also analyzed according to preoperative risk scores.Univariate versus multivariate risk analysis was performed.Results Hospital early mortality in group 1 was 25.0％ (n =48) versus 14.5 ％ (n =75) in group 2 (P =0.001).Compared with group 2,neonates in group 1 had a significantly higher mortality for simple arterial switch procedure.Lower body weight remained strongly associated with mortality risk after stratifying the population by preoperative risk scores category levels 2.Within group 1,age,weight at surgery,preoperative risk score and type of procedure were not associated with significant differences in early mortality.Cardio-pulmonary bypass time,aortic cross-clamp time and the presence of a surgical complication were independent risk factors for early mortality in group 1.Conclusion Among neonates weighing less than 3.0kg who underwent open cardiac surgery,perioperative hemodynamic status,reflected by bypass time,cross-clamp time,and surgical complications,strongly influenced early mortality.In contrast,low body weight itself was not associated with early mortality.

AIM: To investigate homeodomain-interacting protein kinase 2(HIPK2) gene expression level and its clinical significance in acute leukemia(AL) patients.METHODS: HIPK2 mRNA was determined by semi-quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(semi-quantitive RT-PCR) in patients with acute leukemia and healthy donors.The relative transcription level was compared between the study group and the control group.RESULTS: ① The relative expression level of HIPK2 mRNA in AL patients was 0.364?0.286,significantly lower than that in control(1.160?0.272,P0.05).CONCLUSION: AL has significantly lower HIPK2 mRNA expression as compared to normal control,which may be associated with leukemogenesis and/or disease progression of AL.

Objective:To investigate the BRAF(V600E)gene mutation of pediatric papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and refine their clinicopathological correlates. Methods:Tumor tissue samples of pediatric PTCs (≤18 years old) were collected from tumor tissue bank of Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from January 2012 to December 2016.The medical records of 22 patients with pediatric PTC were reviewed retrospectively.The frequencies of BRAF(V600E) mutation were evaluated and the correlation between BRAF(V600E) mutation and clinical characteristics were analyzed. Results:BRAF(V600E) mutations were present in 45.5% of cases (10 cases). BRAF(V600E) mutation in pediatric PTC was obviously lower than that in adults PTC(77.7%) ( χ2=11.250, P=0.001). BRAF(V600E) mutation in>12-year-old group (66.7%) was remarkably higher than that in ≤12-year-old group (20.0%) ( P<0.05). BRAF(V600E) mutation in female (69.2%) was greatly higher than that in male (11.1%) ( P<0.05). There was no significant correlation with BRAF(V600E) mutation and multiple tumor, tumor size, highly invasive subtype, extrathyroidal extension, lymph node metastasis and radiological history of infants (all P>0.05). The median follow-up time was 45 months.No patients died and BRAF(V600E) mutation was not associated with the increase of recurrence rate ( P>0.05). Conclusions:BRAF(V600E)gene mutation in pediatric PTC is lower than that in adults. BRAF(V600E) mutation does not portend a more aggressive clinical biological behavior in pediatric PTC.

Objective:To evaluate the role of Tg in diagnosis of lateral cervical lymph node recurrence in papillary thyoid cancer(PTC)after radioactive iodine(RAI) therapy.Methods:From Jan 2012 to Aug 2018, 22 PTC patients who received RAI therapy after operation were reoperated for lateral cervical lymph node recurrence. The clinical data was retrospectively analyzed.Results:The median recurrence time was 30.5 (5-86) months. All 22 patients received RAI therapy after the first operation, and the median dose of RAI was 250mCi(100-700 mCi) and the episode of RAI therapy ranged from 1 to 4. All 22 PTC patients underwent neck reoperation, among which 20 cases were identified to have lymph node metastasis. The median number of lymph nodes dissected was 31 (8-83) and median number of metastatic lymph nodes was 4 (1-19) . The diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography in detecting lymph node metastasis was 90.9%. Before reoperation, the median Tg was 1.305 (0.10-99.51) μg/L, with the cutoff value of Tg being 0.2 μg/L, and its sensitivity and specificity were 80.0% and 100%, respectively. The median stimulated Tg was 5.89 (0.14-255.80) μg/L in the 10 patients, with the cutoff value of stimulated Tg of 2 μg/L, and its sensitivity and specificity were 88.9% and 100%, respectively.Conclusions:The serum Tg level is helpful for monitoring the recurence of PTC, but recurrence cannot be completely ruled out for those with low Tg.

Objective To investigate the effects and mechanisms of carbon monoxide-releasing molecule-2 (CORM-2) on LPS induced barrier injure of Caco-2 cells.Methods The model of Caco-2 monolayer cells damage induced by LPS was established by using 50 μg/ml LPS for 24 hours.After preconditioning with different concentrations (10 μmol/L,50 μmol/L,and 100 μ mol/L) of CORM-2 for 1 hour,the cultured well-grown Caco-2 monolayer cells were stimulated with 50 μ g/ml lipopolysaccharides (LPS) for 24 hour.The 100 μmol/L CORM-2 was put into 37℃ and 5％ CO2 incubator for 18 hours until the CO has been fully released,and it became an inactive CORM-2(iCORM-2).The cultured Caco-2 monolayer cells were divided into six groups:the control group,the LPS group,the LC1(10 μmol /L CORM-2 preconditioning) group,the LC2(50 μmol/L CORM-2 preconditioning) group,the LC3(100 μmol/L CORM-2 preconditioning) group,and the LC4 (iCORM-2 preconditioning) group.The apoptosis rates of different groups of Caco-2 monolayer cells were detected using flow cytometry.Cytokines (TNF-α,IL-1β and HMGB-1) levels of different groups were detected using ELISA kits.The levels of tight junction proteins (occludin ZO-1,claudin-1 and claudin-4) of every group were detected using Western blotting with specific antibodies.The structural changes of tight junction proteins were visualized by immunofluorescence technique.Results Compared with control group,cell apoptosis rate and release of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α,IL-1β and HMGB-1 in LPS group were significantly higher,and the levels of tight junction proteins were apparently decreased (P＜0.05) in LPS group.Compared with LPS group,cell apoptosis rate and release of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α,IL-1β and HMGB-1 decreased,and the levels of tight junction proteins were attenuated obviously,P＜0.05,in CORM-2 preconditioning groups.And the higher the concentration of CORM-2,the more obvious the protective effects.Conclusions This study demonstrates that CORM-2,as one of exogenous CO-releasing molecules,has the capacity to protect the barrier damage of LPS-stimulated Caco-2 monolayer cells in a concentration dependent manner.The higher the concentration of CORM-2 was,the stronger the protective effects were.The protective effects of CORM-2 include reducing Caco-2 monolayer cells apoptosis rate,inhibiting inflammatory cytokines production and release,and restoring distribution and levels of tight junction proteins.
