Objective To evaluate the prognostic factors affecting postoperative recurrence and progression in patients with superficial bladder transitional cell carcinoma(SBTCC). Methods From 2000 to 2004,150 patients with SBTCC were treated, of which 120 patients were followed up. The possible prognostic factors including clinical and pathological figures were analyzed by Cox's proportional hazard model in these patients. Results The mean fol-low-up period was 84.7 months. The recurrence rates at 3-year,5-year were 27.5% and 36.7% respectively. The main variables affecting recurrence were histological grades,tumor stage,tumor number and recurring tumor,and the first three were the independent risk factors. The progression rotes at 3-year,5-year were 9. 2% and 17.5%. The main variables affecting progression were histological grade,tumor stage, tumor number and recurring tumor, and the first one was the independent risk factor. Conclusion The main variables affecting progression were histological grade, tumor stage,tumor number and recurring tumor,and the first one were the independent risk factor.

Objective To study the effect of gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist(GnRHa)against car-boplation-induced gonadotoxicity in rats. Methods Forty Wistar rats were divided into four groups which received carboplation, GnRHa + carboplation, GnRHa and normal saline respectively(n=10 for each group). Blood samples were collected from the abdominal aorta and the levels of blood follicle stimulation hormone (FSH) and estradiol (E<2>) were determined. Both ovaries and uterus of each rat were removed to measure the amount and the maturity of follicles. Body mass and morphological and pathological features of the rats were also observed. Results Compared with that in control group, the body mass of ovary and uterus decreased (P<0.05), and a significant reduction was observed in the number of ovarian follicles at each grade (P<0.05). The levels of E2 significantly lowered (P<0.05) and the level of FSH markedly ascended in group carboplation. Compared with that in group carboplation, the amount of primitive follicles significantly increased in group GnRHa + carboplation (P<0.05), and carboplation showed markedly protective effect on the ovarian and uterine morphological construction of rats. Conclusion Gn-Rha, appliying to preventing the rat reproduction damage in advance, has the certain protective function.

Aim To examine the effect of ? opioid receptor agonist U50488H on the levels of interleukin-6(IL-6) and interleukin-8(IL-8) from angiotensinⅡ(AngⅡ) stimulated endothelial cells.Methods In the in vivo study,the modulation of U50488H(1.5 mg?kg~-1) intravenously on the level of AngⅡ was evaluated.In the in vitro study,endothelial cells from human umbilical vein(HUVEC) were cultured and divided into four groups:Control group,AngⅡ group,and AngⅡ plus U50488H and/or nor-BNI(a selective ? opioid receptor antagonist) group.These groups were treated respectively with phosphate buffered solution(PBS),AngⅡ(10~-9~10~-5 mol?L~-1),and AngⅡ in the presence of U50488H and/or nor-BNI for 0~24 hours.Culture supernatant and endothelial cells were collected at 0,3,6,12 and 24 h.IL-6 and IL8 levels in culture supernatant were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results The level of AngⅡ in the blood was significantly decreased following U50488H intravenously,which was blocked by nor-BNI administration(2 mg?kg~-1).AngⅡ stimulated the productions of IL-6 and IL-8 from HUVEC in the dose-dependent and time-dependent manners.U50488H at 10~-5 mol?L~-1 significantly inhibited this process,and the inhibitory effect of U50488H was blocked by nor-BNI,which itself had no effect.Conclusion ? opioid receptor may play a role in the process of anti-inflammation via down regulation of AngⅡ level and inhibition of the AngⅡ-stimulated IL-6 and IL-8 productions from endothelium cells.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between micropapillary patten, cribriform pattern and retraction clefting of HPV associated endocervical adenocarcinoma and Silva classification and prognosis; and to validate the application and clinical significance of Silva system in endocervical adenocarcinoma.Methods:Cases of endocervical adenocarcinoma from January 2009 to November 2017 were selected from the Second Hospital of Jilin University and followed up. The morphologic characteristics of Silva classification, micropapillary patten, cribriform pattern and retraction clefting were observed and recorded. Inferential analysis was performed to compare clinicopathological variables data between pattern subgroups.Results:The study included 120 patients (ranging from 26 to 73 years) with an average age of (48.0±9.1)years. Silva A, B and C accounted for 9.2% (11/120), 18.3% (22/120) and 72.5% (87/120), respectively. Cases with micropapillary pattern accounted for 25.8%(31/120), of which six cases were Silva B and 25 cases were Silva C. Cases with cribriform pattern accounted for 53.3%(64/120), including three cases of Silva A, 17 cases of Silva B and 44 cases of Silva C. Retraction clefting occurred in 28.3%(34/120) cases, all were Silva C. The three morphologic features were associated with lymph node metastasis ( P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that micropapillary pattern was related to prognosis of endocervical carcinoma ( P<0.05), while cribriform pattern, retraction clefting and Silva classification showed no correlation with overall survival and disease-free survival. Conclusions:The suggestion is revising the Silva C criteria by adding papillary patten and retraction clefting as factors and expanding the Silva pattern system to include more histologic variants. The Silva system is helpful to select appropriate operation before surgery, but its prognostic value requires further evaluation.

Objective:To determine the prevalence and risk factors of constipation in Hangzhou urban areas by analyzing data from a recent epidemiological survey.Methods:From August 2022 to June 2023, a cross-sectional survey was conducted on 43 communities on eight streets in suburbs of Hangzhou, including Wangjiang, Sijiqing, Puyan, Changhe, Ziyang, Xiaoshanchengxiang, Zhuantang, and Banshan. Written questionnaires were filled out face to face by community doctors. The prevalence of constipation was investigated using a combination of the Bristol stool typing method and the Rome IV criteria. The risk factors for constipation were analyzed using multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results:The study cohort comprised 10,479 participants, 5551 of whom were male (53.0%) and 4928 female (47.0%). The overall prevalence of constipation was 10.6% (1107/10,479). The prevalence was 11.0% (613/5551) for male and 10.0% (494/4928) for female participants; this difference is not statistically significant ( P>0.05).There were no significant differences in the prevalence of constipation between different categories of body mass index ( P>0.05). The prevalence of constipation was highest in individuals aged 70 years and above, accounting for 15.4% (264/1717) of all cases. There were significant differences in the prevalence of constipation between different occupations, marital statuses, and educational levels ( P<0.001). Patients with hypertension or diabetes mellitus had a higher prevalence of constipation than those without these conditions, those who had been taking long-term medication had a higher prevalence of constipation than those who did not, parents of children with constipation had a higher prevalence of constipation than those with children who did not have constipation, and there were other significant differences in various variables ( P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis of modifiable factors revealed that eating less fruit (OR=1.284, 95%CI: 1.061–1.553, P=0.010), liking spicy and salty food (OR=1.234, 95%CI: 1.039–1.466, P=0.016), sleeping for too long (OR=1.644, 95%CI: 1.260–2.144, P<0.001), irregular sleep patterns (OR=1.370, 95%CI: 1.127–1.665, P=0.002) and minimal exercise (OR=1.388, 95% CI: 1.168–1.649, P<0.001) were all risk factors for constipation; whereas mix diets (OR=0.709,95%CI:0.608–0.826, P<0.001), meat diets (OR=0.604,95%CI: 0.495–0.736, P<0.001), moderate alcohol consumption (OR=0.659, 95% CI: 0.534–0.812, P<0.001), less or no drinking (OR=0.523, 95% CI: 0.428–0.638, P<0.001), and non-smoking (OR=0.819, 95%CI:0.674–0.995, P<0.001) protected against constipation. We found no association between dietary preferences and the risk of constipation (refined grains: OR=1.147, 95%CI:0.944–1.393, P=0.167; no specific preference: OR=0.935, 95%CI:0.783–1.117, P=0.459). The rate of agreement between self-evaluation of constipation by the respondents and objective criteria was higher for negatives (95.8%) than for positives (38.0%). Conclusion:The prevalence of constipation is relatively high in the urban population of Hangzhou. A good lifestyle and diet can significantly reduce its incidence. There should be more emphasis on preventive education, promotion of prevention of constipation, and advocacy for a healthy lifestyle.
