ObjectiveTo evaluate the modified Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) staging system for predictability of intrahepatic recurrence for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) following curative hepatectomy.MethodsA retrospective study was conducted on 197 consecutive patients with HCC who underwent curative hepatectomy in our department from Jan.2008 to Jan.2011.Univariate and multivariate analyses using Cox proportional hazard model were used to evaluate possible association between clinicopathologic factors and early postoperative intrahepatic recurrence (ER).Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analysis with calculation of the area under the curve (AUC),sensitivity,and specificity were applied to define the cutoff point values for possible meaningful continuous variables where appropriate.A comparison between the differences in AUC was used to assess BCLC and a modified BCLC (M-BCLC) staging system for their predictive ability of ER.Risk stratification according to calculated M-BCLC was applied to find differences of ER at various time points after curative hepatectomy.ResultsDuring follow-up,111 patients developed ER.The 6-,9-,12-,18- and 24-month cumulative recurrent rates were 26.9% (53/197),37.6% (74/197),45.2%(89/197),53.8% (106/197) and 56.3% (111/197),respectively.Multivariate analysis revealed thatthe severity of concomitant cirrhosis,elevated AFP≥185.6 μg/L and BCLC staging were risk factors of ER.A M-BCLC was proposed based on the results of multivariate analysis.The severity of cirrhosis and elevated AFP values were included in the BCLC staging.This M-BCLC exhibited better performance.It predicted at different time points of ER at postoperative 9,12,18 and 24 months to be significantly better with M-BCLC than BCLC using AUC drawn from ROC.No significant difference was found with ER prediction at 6 months.The M-BCLC also demonstrated a ER prediction with AUC of 0.710 (95% CI,0.630-0.790) and achieved a sensitivity of 83.0%,a specificity of 51.9%as calculated from ROC with M-BCLC≥2.913.Further risk stratification according to the M-BCLC at various cutoff point values revealed the ER occurrence rates amongst the different risk groups to be significantly different when compared with the median ER time (17.9 mons,9.9 mons vs 5.7 mons,x2=25.770,P=0.000,Log-Rank test).ConclusionA modified BCLC staging system based on multivariate analysis improved the predictability of ER following curative hepatectomy for HCC.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the fingerprint of Artemisia apiacea to identify common model and evaluate the quality coherence of the commercially available A. apiacea decoration pieces in Chongqing. METHODS:HPLC method was performed on the column of Waters XTerra C18 with the mobile phase consisted of methanol-0.1% phosphoric acid(gradient elution)at the flow rate of 1.0 ml/min. The detection wavelength was 220 nm,column temperature was 30 ℃ and the sample size was 10 μl. The simi-larity of 12 batches of samples was evaluated by TCM Chromatogram Fingerprint Similarity Evaluation System(2004A edition);a common model of fingerprints was identified by principal component analysis(PCA)and cluster analysis(CA). RESULTS:Total-ly 11 batches of samples were screened to establish common model of fingerprints and 16 common peaks were obtained,among which,3 common components were identified;RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 2.53%. The similarity of 11 batches of A. apiacea and reference chromatogram was more than 0.990. CONCLUSIONS:The method is stable and easy,and can provide reference for the scientific quality evaluation and control of A. apiacea;the quality of commercially available A. apiacea decoration pieces is generally good,however,there is still a little number of batches with poor quality. The production procedures and supervision of A. apiacea decoration pieces should be strengthened.

Objective To evaluate the early effect and safety of artificial hip replacement for treating senile osteoporosis femoral neck fractures with different prostheses choice. Methods From January 2006 to April 2014, 387 patients with senile osteoporotic femoral neck fractures received artificial hip replacement. Their average age was 65 to 98 years old,with the average of 76.9 years old. Four prostheses were used in the artificial hip replacement, including 107 cases of biological total hip,94 cases of bone cement type total hip,104 cases of biotype artificial femoral head,and 82 cases bone cement artificial femoral head. We compared the operation time,bleeding amount, postoperative ambulation time,postoperative complication rate among the four prostheses. Results The biological hip replacement were superior to bone cement type in the operation time(50±10.3 min vs 61±11.5 min), bleeding amount(149±27.7 ml vs 205±47.3 ml)and postoperative complications(21% vs 38%),with statistical significant differences(P < 0.05). Other observations showed no statistically significance. Conclusion The biotype artificial joint replacement is applicable to the younger patients with thick bone cortex and long life expectancy,while the bone cement artificial joint replacement is appropriate for weak senile patients with thin bone cortex.
