Objective To retrospectively analyse the factors related to the risk of malignant change in relation with various colorectal polyps. Methods Data on a total of 820 patients (900 polyps), who had undergone polypectomy between 1997 and 2001 were collected. The relation between colorectal cancer and polyps characteristics was assessed by Logistic Regression and Chi square. Results The risk of malignant change was significantly related with the size of polyps, histology of polyps, grade of dysplasia, pathological changes of mucosa, sessile or pedunculated polyps. Conclusion High grade dysplasia, large size, adenoma, absence of a stalk, and ulcerous mucosa were confirmed as the major predictors. The likelihood of malignant degeneration of colorectal polyps seemed to be correlated with the number of the above mentioned risk factors present

AIM: To explore the regulatory effect of bifidobacteria adolescence on NF-?B in murine peritoneal macrophages(PMs).METHODS: Macrophages were collected and were divided into tow groups,normal control group and bifidobacterium stimulation groups.The cells were fixed at 60 min after stimulated with bifidobacterium at 10~6,10~7, 10~8 and 10~9 cells/L,or fixed respectively at 15,30,60,120 and 180 min after stimulated with bifidobacterium at 10~8 cells/L,then the total protein and nucleoprotein were extracted.The activities of NF-?B and I?B? were measured with the methods of MSA and Western blotting.RESULTS: NF-?B activity markedly increased and reached the peak at 0.5 h after stimulation,while I?B? markedly decreased at same time.CONCLUSION: NF-?B activity is markedly activated by bifidobacterium.NF-?B pathway participates in the regulation of peritoneal macrophage in this process.

Objective:To investigate ulinastatin (UTI) combined with Xingnaojing injection in the treatment of acute cerebral hemorrhage (ACH) and its effect on the serum high sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP),D-dimer (D-D) and neuron specific enolase(NSE) levels.Methods:110 cases of ACH patients admitted in our hospital from January 2015 to December 2016 were selected and divided into two groups according to the random number table method.The control group was given UTI treatment,while the observation group was given UTI combined with Xingnaojing treatment.Then the brain edema absorption effect,NIHSS score,serum hs-CRP,D-D and NSE levels before and after the treatment of the two groups were recorded and compared;the safety ofmedicidstion of the two groups was evaluated.Results:At the 14th day after treatment,the total effective rate of cerebral hematoma absorption in the observation group was 89.1％,which was significantly higher than 67.3％ of the control group (P＜0.01).At the 14th day after treatment,the NIHSS scores of both groups were significantly lower than those before the treatment (P＜0.01);compared with that of the control group of the same time period,at the 14th day after treatment,the improvement effect of NIHSS score in the observation group was more significant (P＜0.01).Compared with those before the treatment,the serum hs-CRP,D-D and NSE levels of both groups at the 14th day after treatment were significantly decreased (P＜0.01);at the 14th day after treatment,the serum indicators of the observation group improved more significantly than those of the control group (P＜0.01).The incidence rate of adverse reaction in the observation group was 3.6％ compared with 5.5％ of the control group (P＞0.05).Conclusion:Ulinastatin combined with Xingnaojing Injection could rapidly relieve or eliminate hematoma in the treatment of acute cerebral hemorrhage,control the inflammatory response,improve the blood coagulation system and fibrinolytic system,protect the nerve cells and reduce the neurological damagee.

Objective: Angiosarcoma of the breast is a rare and heterogeneous entity and its overall incidence is reported as 0.04% of primary breast cancer and as 8% of breast sarcoma approximately. To retrospectively analyze the clinical features and prognosis of breast angiosarcoma, 13 patients were identified by mammary pathologists in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from October 1975 to June 2009. Methods:Kaplan-Meier method was carried out to analyze different tumor size, tumor margins and histological grade. Prognosis was tested with univariate analysis by Log-rank test. Results: Median and mean age at diagnosis were 48 years and 44 years, respectively. The duration of follow-up ranged from 7 to 98 months (median, 50 months). All patients underwent surgical excision. Two patients received chemotherapy. Eight patients succumbed to recurrence and distant metastasis. Conclusion:Angiosarcoma of the breast has an exceedingly poor prognosis. The median disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were 28 months and 45 months, respectively. Both tumor size and surgical margins were associated with prognosis (P<0.05). Patients with high histological grade had a tendency of short OS (P>0.05) and a high risk of recurrence and metastasis (P<0.05).

Objective To compare the cost-effectiveness between endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) procedure and traditional surgery for the treatment of early gastrointestinal cancer or precancerous lesions.Methods A total of 866 early GI cancer/precancerous patients who had been admitted to Chinese PLA General hospital and Qilu hospital were included in this study.The medical records of all 866 patients were reviewed.Patients were divided into ESD group and traditional surgery group.Parameters of each patient,such as time of hospitalization,total treatment cost and incidence of complications,were documented and later compared in detail.Results A total of 607 patients were included in the ESD group and 259 in the traditional surgery group.There was no statistical difference in complete resection rate between the two groups (93.1％ vs 93.0％,P ＞ 0.05).The ESD group showed a shorter mean hospitalization time (d)(13.01 vs 18.88,P ＜ 0.05) and lower treatment cost (RMB) than the traditional surgery group (22932.17 vs 57993.88,P ＜ 0.05).The incidence of hemorrhage and perforation for each group were 3.63％ and 3.10％ respectively,which were not significantly different (1.98％ vs 3.01％,P ＞ 0.05; 2.80％ vs 1.16％,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion ESD and surgery are both effective for early gastrointestinal cancer/precancerous lesions therapy,but ESD procedure is superior to surgery in terms of hospitalization time and expediture.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic potential of magnifying narrow-band imaging endoscopy (NBI-ME) for different intrapapillary capillary loop (IPCL) for the diagnosis of esophageal lesion.Methods Patients with abnormal esophageal mucosa found by white light gastroscopy in digestive endoscopy center,Chinese PLA General Hospital during the period of November 2009 to November 2010 were enrolled in this study.IPCL was observed and divided into different types by NBI-ME.Histopathology of biopsy or endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) specimens was evaluated and used as the gold standard to evaluate the diagnostic value of NBI-ME for IPCL.Results A total of 146 lesions from 145 subjects with esophageal mucosa abnormal were collected. Among them, 88 were pathology-proven inflammation,5 were pathology-proven esophageal cancers,20 were pathology-proven low intraepithelial neoplasia (LIN) and 33 were pathology-proven high intraepithelial neoplasia (HIN) detected with NBI-ME.By a per-lesion analysis,the accuracy of inflammation and cancer were 100％ (88/88) and 7/7.For the sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,positive likelihood ratio,negative likelihood ratio of LIN and HIN were 7/10,69.8％ ( 30/43 ),69.8％ ( 37/53 ),35.0％ (7/20),90.9％ (30/33),12.5％ (70/559),2.3％ (30/1290) and 87.1％ (27/31),72.7％ ( 16/22),81.1％ ( 43/53 ),81.8％ ( 27/33 ),80.0％ ( 16/20 ),634.1％ ( 837/132 ) and 35.2％ ( 124/352 ),respectively.Conclusions NBI-ME can classify the different esophageal IPCL.Higher diagnostic accuracy of IPCL indicates the feasibility of NBI-ME for the efficacious diagnosis of esophageal inflammation and cancer.There is the higher diagnostic accuracy of HIN than LIN.

Objective To predict the secondary structure and the B cell epitopes of human heparanase protein, and to identify its immunogenicity. Methods The flexible regions of secondary structure and the B cell epitopes of human heparanase amino acid sequence were predicted by DNAStar and Bcepred software. The multiple antigenic peptides (MAP) of the epitopes were synthesized in 8-branch form. Rabbits were immunized with the 8-branch MAPs mixed with a universal T-helper epitope human IL-1β peptide (VQGEESNDK, amino acid 163-171 ). The immunogenicity of the synthesized peptides was evaluated by ELISA, Western blot and immunohistochemistry. Results Amino acid 1 -15 ( MAP1), 279-293 (MAP2) and 175-189(MAP3) of large-subunit of human heparanase protein was predicted as the most potential epitopes of human heparanase protein. All the three synthesized MAPs induced high titer of antibodies. ELISA, Western blot and immunohistochemistry analysis showed all the three MAPs could produce high titer serum antibodies, antibodies induced by MAP1 and MAP2 had high specific binding activity , and MAP2 antibody showed the strongest binding activity with liver cancer tissues. Conclusion The large-subunit No. 1-15, 279-293 amino acid of human heparanase protein may be the B cell preponderant epitopes and the strongest immunogenicity may be No. 279-293 peptide, which provided a theoretic basis for the antibody and vaccine development of heparanase subunit peptide.

ObjectiveTo investigate the procedure,effect and complication of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the management of early gastrointestinal tumors and precancerous lesions.MethodsESD was performed in 28 patients with 29 lesions of early cancer and precancerous lesions in esophagus,stomach,colon and rectum.First we made marks around the lesion 3-5 mm away from the margin with a needle knife or APC,then injected solution into submucosa to elevate the lesion,and cut the mucosa and submucusa along the margin with a needle knife or IT knife.The submucosa was carefully dissected until the lesions were completely removed with IT knife.Bleeding was stopped with thermocoagulation forceps,argon plasma coagulation or clip.The samples were collected for pathological examination.All patients were followed up with endoscopy as scheduled.ResultsOf the 29 lesinas,22 were en bloc resected,6 were piecemeal resccted,and 1 was partial removed.The resection rate of antral lesion was 100% (12/12),and that of lesions between angulus and cardia was 5/7,that of esophageal lesions was 3/5 and that of colorectal ncoplasmns was 2/5.Delayed bleeding occured in 1 patient.The mean operation time for the antral lesions was 48 minutes.Twenty patients were followed up for 1 to 12 months.No residue or recurrence of the lesions was found.ConclusionThe major advantage of ESD is that the resection area can be determined by the size and shape of the lesion,and resection can be achieved en bloc even in a large neoplasm.
