OBJECTIVETo investigate intratumoral microvessel density (MVD) and expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (BFGF) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) and to evaluate their significance.

METHODSMVD and expression of VEGF and BFGF in cancerous tissues were examined in forty specimens resected from patients with HCC using immunohistochemical methods. Among these patients, 20 patients received 1 to 7 treatments of TACE prior to II-phase surgical resection (TACE group), the other 20 patients were treated by operation without receiving any other treatment preoperatively (surgical group). There was no significant difference in clinical features between the two groups. MVD was assessed by counting immunostained endothelial cells within a certain area, and staining intensity of VEGF was assessed quantitatively with computer-assisted image analyzer. The expression of BFGF was determined by cell-positive or cell-negative.

RESULTSThe average MVD was 130.51 75.5 in TACE group and 152.35 58.80 in surgical group. There was no significant difference between the two groups (t=-1.021, P=0.341). Staining intensity of VEGF was 645.60 543.27 in TACE group, higher than in surgical group (158.28 188.48, t=281, P<0.001). BFGF-positive rate was 35% in TACE group and 40% in surgical group. There was no significant difference (x(2)=0.107, P=0.744).

CONCLUSIONSThe results indicate that survived cancerous tissue has rich vascularity and the expression of VEGF of the cancerous cells can be enhanced by TACE which may play an important role in reestablishment of blood supply to tumor after TACE.

Objective: To explore the reliability and validity of the Chinese Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory（PedsQL）in influenza children. Methods: From January 2017 to February 2018,we selected laboratory-diagnosed influenza cases and healthy children according to age and gender ratio by stratified random sampling and systematic sampling method. We employed Chinese version of PedsQL 4.0 to investigate their quality of life,used Cronbach's α to evaluate the reliability,and used Pearson correlation coefficient, t-test,confirmatory factor analysis（CFA）and ROC curve to evaluate the validity. Results: Totally 300 influenza cases and 300 healthy children were surveyed,with 294（98.00%）and 295（98.33%）valid questionnaires recovered. The general Cronbach's α was 0.89,and the Cronbach's α of each dimension ranged from 0.79 to 0.84. The Pearson correlation coefficients between the items and their belonged dimension ranged from 0.537 to 0.755,between the items and other dimension ranged from 0.203 to 0.384. The CFA resulted in RMSEA of 0.06,GFI of 0.88,AGFI of 0.90,CFI of 0.91 and NFI of 0.89. The scores in total and in all the dimensions in influenza cases were significantly different with those in healthy children（P<0.05）. Taking the scores in influenza cases as a golden standard,the area under the ROC curve was 0. 985（P<0.05）,the sensitivity was 0.92,and the specificity was 0.95. When the limit score was 82.18,the Youden index was the largest. Conclusion The Chinese version of PedsQL4.0 has good reliability and validity, which can be applied to quality of life assessment in children.

Objective : To investigate the effect of tension on donor site recovery of modified forearm flaps (closed forearm donor site skin flaps). Methods : From October 2018 to April 2021, 12 patients with oral cancer underwent forearm flap repair at Xuzhou Central Hospital. Handgrip strength and wrist motion were recorded before surgery. During the surgical incision at the donor site of the forearm, the triangular full-thickness skin of the donor site was used to close part of the surgical incision, and the other part of the surgical incision was directly closed and sutured. Tension was measured with a tension meter during the surgical incision at the donor site. Patients were followed up after surgery to observe whether there were postoperative complications such as necrosis and poor healing of donor site wounds, as well as forearm grip strength, wrist range of motion and appearance satisfaction. Results: Among the 12 patients, there was only one elderly patient with postoperative necrosis near the wrist in the donor site skin, and the average tension of the patient was 0.65 kg; the lesion healed after dressing changes. All of the other patients recovered well without postoperative complications. The mean tension of 12 patients was (0.51 ± 0.05) kg. The preoperative and postoperative grip strength of 12 patients was (23.7 ± 10.3) kg and (22.3 ± 10.7) kg, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (t=5.872, P<0.001). The mean range of motion of the wrist was (47.6 ± 8.3)°, (45.8 ± 5.8)°; dorsiflexion (54.6 ± 3.2)°, (53.9 ± 2.3)°; radial deviation (37.0 ± 2.3)°, (36.1 ± 2.2)°; ruler deviation (27.1 ± 1.9)°, (26.4 ± 1.3)°, respectively. The t values were 1.64, 1.636, 2.116 and 1.412, and the P values were 0.129, 0.130, 0.058 and 0.186, respectively. All 12 patients were satisfied with the appearance of the donor site of the forearm. Conclusion When the average tension during suturing is less than 0.5 kg, there is a lower risk of complications at the donor site of the forearm one month after surgery, a lower risk of impaired donor site function, and a greater possibility of patient satisfaction with the appearance of the donor site.
