Objective:To establish a rat model of erectile dysfunction caused by the injury of the cavernous nerve. Methods:Rats topographical anatomy were done for identifing the cavernous nerve and major pelvic ganglion and pelvic nerve and hypogastric nerve .Polygraph intracavernous pressure of the models were detected continuously and evaluated. Results:Erectile process was controlled by erectile nerve. Major pelvic ganglion includes two inflows,they are called pelvic nerve and hypogastric nerve. The largest outflow is cavernous nerve. The injury of the cavernous nerve will lead to erectile dysfunction. Conclusion:Rat can be an ideal animal model for studying the erectile dysfunction caused by cavernous nerve injury. The neuvological mechanism of erectile dysfunction can be evaluated with determination of intracavernous pressure.

PURPOSE: Survival of metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patient remains unknown and varies greatly from person to person. Thus, we aimed to construct a nomogram to quantify the survival probability of patients with MBC. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We had included 793 MBC patients and calculated trends of case fatality rate by Kaplan-Meier method and joinpoint regression. Six hundred thirty-four patients with MBC between January 2004 and July 2011 and 159 patients with MBC between August 2011 and July 2013 were assigned to training cohort and internal validation cohort, respectively. We constructed the nomogram based on the results of univariable and multivariable Cox regression analyses in the training cohort and validated the nomogram in the validation cohort. Concordance index and calibration curves were used to assess the effectiveness of nomogram. RESULTS: Case fatality rate of MBC was increasing (annual percentage change [APC], 21.6; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.0 to 46.3; p < 0.05) in the first 18 months and then decreased (APC, -4.5; 95% CI, -8.2 to -0.7; p < 0.05). Metastasis-free interval, age, metastasis location, and hormone receptor status were independent prognostic factors and were included in the nomogram, which had a concordance index of 0.69 in the training cohort and 0.67 in the validation cohort. Calibration curves indicated good consistency between the two cohorts at 1 and 3 years. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, the fatality risk of MBC was increasing and reached the summit between 13th and 18th month after the detection of MBC. We have developed and validated a nomogram to predict the 1- and 3-year survival probability in MBC.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and clinical significance of sentinel lymph node biopsy(SLNB) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for axillary lymph node-positive breast cancer.Methods Enrolled for a prospective cohort study were 167 patients from Jan 2016 to Jan 2018 with axillary lymph node-positive breast cancer admitted to the Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences.SLNB was performed after NAC by lymphatic dual mapping,followed by axillary lymph node dissection.The primary end point was sentinel lymph node identification rate (IR) and false negative rate (FNR).Results 62 patients (37.1％) had complete pathological response of axillary lymph nodes.There was a significant difference of NAC response in patients with different subtypes (P ＜0.001).The IR of SLNB after NAC was 94.6％,the FNR was 6.7％,the sensitivity was 93.3％,the specificity was 100％,and the accuracy was 95.8％.Univariate analysis showed that there was no significant difference between tumor stage,hormone receptor status,HER2 expression,and pathological remission in SLN detection group and the SLN undetected group (P ＞ 0.05).The proportion of patients who received breast conserving surgery in the undetected group was significantly higher than that in the test group (P =0.006).Conclusions Sentinel lymph node biopsy after breast neoadjuvant chemotherapy by lymphatic dual mapping is highly accurate with a high identification rate and a low false negative rate.

Objective: To observe the effect of medical instant hemostasis gauze combined with filament speed instant gauze on the drainage and flap healing after modified radical mastectomy. Methods: From August 2015 to August 2016, a total of 80 patients with modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer admitted to Huanxing Tumor Hospital, Chaoyang District, Beijing were selected.According to the random number table method, 80 patients who were ready for modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer were randomly divided into study group (40 cases) and control group (40 cases). Two kinds of hemostatic materials (medical hemolytic hemostatic gauze combined with fibril quick hemostatic gauze) were applied to the surgical wounds in the study group during the operation, while no medical hemostatic materials were used in the control group during the operation, and the other treatment was the same as that in the study group.Total drainage volume and drainage tube removal time were compared between the two groups 1 to 5 days after operation. Results: There were no statistically significant differences in the age, body mass index, and effusion production between the two groups (all P>0.05). The total drainage volume of the study group was (289.23±5.36) ml, and the total drainage volume of the control group was (492.15±8.56) ml.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t=8.543, P<0.05). The drainage time of the study group was (6.24±1.23) days, and the extraction time of the control group was (10.12±2.21) days.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t=6.203, P<0.05). Conclusion In addition to hemostatic function, using absorbable hemostatic gauze combined with surgicel fibrillar during the surgical process can significantly reduce postoperative subcutaneous fluid accumulation.
