Objective To evaluate the capability for detecting of tumor cells in ascites and pleural effusion by Sysmex XN‐2000 hematology analyzer .Methods Determination of 84 samples of ascites and pleural effusion specimens with Sysmex XN‐2000 hema‐tology analyzer humoral model to analyze the study parameters highly fluorescent cells absolute value (HF‐BF # ) and percentage (HF‐BF% ) of ascites and pleural effusions screening of tumor cells ,and related data for statistical analysis .Results In 84 cases of pleural effusion and ascites samples ,cytology found 14 cases of malignant cells ,cancer cells are not found in 70 cases .14 cases of malignant cases ,HF‐BF # average of 169 /μL(0-2 001) ,HF‐BF% with an average of 29 .7% (0% -261% );70 cases of benign cases ,HF‐BF # an average of 39 /μL(0-524) ,HF‐BF% with an average of 4 .2% (0% -27 .8% ) ,both groups were statistical differences in the mean significance(P<0 .05) .ROC curve analysis with high absolute value and percentage of fluorescent cells to tumor cells detection function ,HF‐BF # area under the curve(AUC) was 0 .493 ,the area(AUC)% HF‐BF under the curve was 0 .222 .Conclusion Sysmex XN‐2000 Pattern of humoral parameters of HF‐BF # and HF‐BF% ,although the tumor cells may pro‐vide some screening information ,but ineffective ,so we believe that in our daily work can′t be over‐reliance on the instrument HF‐BF# ,HF‐BF% and other parameters should be performed on every sample smear staining ,thus improving the detection rate of ma‐lignant cells .

With the advancement of surgical techniques, the 5-year survival rate of colorectal cancer has significantly improved. However, incomplete lymph node dissection during operation leads to local recurrence and distant metastasis of the tumor, which has seriously affected the prognosis of patients. In the era of laparoscopy, surgeons' sense of touch is limited, making it difficult to feel and distinguish lymph node metastasis and the location of early colorectal cancer with their hands. The emergence of carbon nanoparticle suspension can help surgeons accurately locate tumors and clean lymph nodes under laparoscopy. This article reviews the clinical application of carbon nanoparticles in lymph node tracing and tumor location in colorectal cancer.

Sarcopenia obesity (SO), a specific disease with co-occurrence of obesity and sarcopenia, is shown clinically as abnormal accumulation of fat, decreased mass and strength of muscle, and increased risk of incidence and mortality of other chronic diseases. Currently, there exist various definitions and diagnoses about SO in the various regions of the world. Its prevalence in populations elevates in an age-dependent manner. This article summarized the possible pathogenesis of SO from the view of chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, insulin resistance, and Hippo pathway, subsequently listed and analyzed potential pharmacological targets (fibroblast growth factor, CD44, adiponectin, etc) involved in treating SO, in order to provide new ideas for clinical diagnosis, treatment of SO patients and research and development of innovative drugs.

Sarcopenia, characterized as the progressive decrease in skeletal muscle mass, strength, and function, has been becoming one of chronic musculoskeletal diseases in aging people. In basic research studies, a reliable experimental model would be vital significance for deeply understanding pathophysiological mechanism of sarcopenia and developing novel drugs. This review provided a preliminary summary on the potential mechanisms involved in senescence-induced sarcopenia, followed by a discussion on research progress on pharmacology models based on molecular mechanism of senescence, especially from in vitro cell models and in vivo animal models.
