Objective To analyze features of clinical manifestation, electrophysiology, imageology and molecular ge?netics of familial carpal tunnel syndrome (FCTS), especially research progress in genetics. Methods Clinical data, labo?ratory and electrophysiologyical results as well as medical images were collected from the propositus. In addition, genetic analysis around peripheral neuropathy was performed on the proband, son of the proband and the affected relatives in the family. Result Patients showed a typical bilateral CTS with early onset. The mode of inheritance in this family was auto?somal dominant.. Gene sequencing revealed point mutations in INF2, KIF1B, TRPV4 and SCN9A. Besides, the possibili?ty of having hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsy(HNPP)or familial amyloidosis (FAP) was excluded by the molecular genetic studies. Conclusion Primary FCTS exists as a separate autonomic entity, which may be caused by other unknown genes and therefore warrants further exploration.

Objective To study the expressions of metalloproteinase 2(MMP-2) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase 2(TIMP-2) in lung cancer,and their relationships with microvessel density(MVD).(Methods The) expressions of MMP-2,TIMP-2 and Ⅷ factor were tested by immunohistochemical staining in(90 cases) of lung cancer tissue and 40 cases of para-cancer lung tissue.Results The immunohistochenmical staining results analyzed by IPP software indicated that MMP-2 and TIMP-2 expressed in all pathological types of lung cancer.The expreesion level of MMP-2 in lung cancer tissue was higher than that in para-cancer tissue(P

To explore the role of P53, pairing box gene 8 antibody (PAX8), and calcium omentum protein (Calretinin) in the origin of epithelial ovarian cancer.
 Methods: A total of 63 tissue samples of ovarian tumor and fallopian tubes were collected. Immunohistochemistry methods were used to analyze the expression of P53, PAX8, and Calretinin. The relationship between these protein levels and the classification of ovarian tumors was evaluated.
 Results: In epithelial ovarian cancer, the P53 or PAX8 was correlated with the occurrence of high-grade carcinoma, while the calretinin was correlated with the occurrence of low-grade carcinoma (P<0.05). The combination of PAX8 with Calretinin was correlated with the grade of ovarian tumor (P<0.05). The combination of P53 with Calretinin was correlated with the grade of tumor (P<0.05). The combination of P53 with PAX8 was correlated with the grade of tumor (P<0.05). The expression of P53 in fallopian tubes was correlated with the malignant degree of epithelial ovarian cancer (P<0.05). The degree of fallopian tube lesions in patients with ovarian cancer was correlated with epithelial ovarian cancer. The malignant lesions of tubal epithelium was correlated with high-grade carcinoma, while the normal or atypical hyperplasia of tubal epithelium was correlated with low-grade carcinoma (P<0.05).
 Conclusion: P53 and Calretinin combined with PAX8 show a synergistic effect on the differentiation of epithelial ovarian cancer grade. The morphology of HE and the expression of TP53 in the fallopian tube epithelium play an auxiliary role in the diagnosis of epithelial ovarian cancer.

Decision-making aid for cancer patients is of great significance in the diagnosis and treatment for diseases. Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in women all over the world, and breast cancer patients have become the main target population for decision-aided research. Application of decision-making assistance for patients in Western countries has developed to a certain extent, while relevant research in China is still at the early stage. There are kinds of intervention forms for patients' decision aids, including traditional brochures and videos, decision aids systems, decision coaching, multidisciplinary breast cancer teams, etc. The tools for decision-making quality evaluation include the patients' awareness for decision-making, participation, decision-making conflict, decision-making satisfaction, decision-making regret, which can provide important guidance for the application of decision-making aid treatment in breast cancer patients in the future.
