Objective To observe the value of spectral CT multi-parameter imaging for preoperative predicting lymph node metastasis(LNM)of gastric cancer.Methods Totally 136 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma were retrospectively enrolled.The patients were further divided into LNM group(n=74)and non-LNM group(n=62)according to postoperative pathological findings of lymph nodes status.Clinical data,conventional CT findings and spectral CT parameters were compared between groups.Factors being significant different between groups were included in multivariate logistic regression analysis to screen independent predictors of gastric cancer LNM.Clinical+conventional CT model(model 1),spectrum CT model(model 2)and combined model(model 3)were constructed based on the above independent predictors,respectively.Receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn,and the area under the curve(AUC)was calculated to evaluate the efficacy of each model for preoperative predicting LNM of gastric cancer.Results CT-N stage,CT-T stage,70,100 and 140 keV CT valuestumor at arterial phase(AP),arterial enhancement fraction(AEF)and normalized iodine concentration at venous phase(NICVP)were all independent predictors of gastric cancer LNM(all P＜0.05).AUC of model 3 was 0.846,higher than that of model 1 and model 2(AUC=0.767,0.774,Z=-0.368,-2.373,both P＜0.05)for preoperative predicting LNM of gastric cancer,while the latter two were not significantly different(Z=-0.152,P=0.879).Conclusion Spectral CT multi-parameter imaging could effectively predict LNM of gastric cancer preoperatively.

【Objective】 To explore a new treatment of primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia (PBMAH) and its efficacy. 【Methods】 Clinical data of 20 PBMAH patients treated in our hospital during Mar.2010 and Apr.2021 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent laparoscopic subcutaneous displacement of vascularized adrenal. The clinical symptoms, plasma free cortisol, adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH), and 24 h urinary free cortisol were regularly monitored after surgery. 【Results】 Of all 20 patients, 19 were followed up for 18 to 120 months (median 60 months). Three months after surgery, reexamination showed 1 patient had decreased plasma free cortisol and increased ACTH, but had no symptoms of low corticosteroids. After another 3 months, the plasma free cortisol and ACTH returned to normal. After 4 to 48 months, the parameters recovered in all patients and the clinical symptoms disappeared. 【Conclusion】 Laparoscopic vascularized adrenal displacement is a new and effective method for the treatment of PBMAH. It can alleviate the Cushing syndrome with no obvious adverse reactions.

Purpose: Reduced quality of life after cystectomy has made bladder preservation a popular research topic for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). Previous research has indicated significant tumor downstaging after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). However, maximal transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) was performed before NAC to define the pathology, impacting the real evaluation of NAC. This research aimed to assess real NAC efficacy without interference from TURBT and apply combined modality therapies guided by NAC efficacy. Materials and Methods: Patients with cT2-4aN0M0 MIBC were confirmed by cystoscopic biopsy and imaging. NAC efficacy was assessed by imaging, urine cytology, and cystoscopy with multidisciplinary team discussion. Definite responders (≤ T1) underwent TURBT plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Incomplete responders underwent radical cystectomy or partial cystectomy if feasible. The primary endpoint was the bladder preservation rate. Results: Fifty-nine patients were enrolled, and the median age was 63 years. Patients with cT3-4 accounted for 75%. The median number of NAC cycles was three. Definite responders were 52.5%. The complete response (CR) was 10.2%, and 59.3% of patients received bladder-sparing treatments. With a median follow-up of 44.6 months, the 3-year overall survival (OS) was 72.8%. Three-year OS and relapse-free survival were 88.4% and 60.0% in the bladder-sparing group but only 74.3% and 37.5% in the cystectomy group. The evaluations of preserved bladder function were satisfactory. Conclusion After stratifying MIBC patients by NAC efficacy, definite responders achieved a satisfactory bladder-sparing rate, prognosis, and bladder function. The CR rate reflected the real NAC efficacy for MIBC. This therapy is worth verifying through multicenter research.

At present, the application of artificial intelligence in the diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is still at an early stage. There were more reports of imaging diagnosis than pathology. Studies of imaging diagnosis mainly focused on using artificial intelligence to identify benign and malignant renal tumors and predict pathological types of RCC by computed tomography. However, there were no reports of artificial intelligence in diagnosing RCC by magnetic resonance imaging. Studies of pathological diagnosis were mainly about the classification of the nucleus. In the future, artificial intelligence has great development potential in the diagnosis of RCC, and further research is needed.

Objectives:To understand the association between obesity and the risk for colorectal advanced adenoma.Methods:Community residents aged 45 to 74 who had participated in the Shanghai community-based colorectal cancer (CRC) screening project in 2008 were included in our study. Anthropometries information including body weight, height and risk factors for colorectal advanced adenoma were collected. Results on colonoscopic diagnosis and personal health records were used for supplementary outcome information retrieval. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to evaluate the hazard ratio ( HR) and 95 %CI of obesity on the risk for colorectal advanced adenoma. Results:20 811 residents were followed up for 122 739.36 person-years, with a median follow-up time of 5.87 years. A total of 657 cases of advanced adenomas were identified. After adjusting for potential confounding risk factors such as age, sex, family history of CRC, level of education, marriage, cigarette smoking, alcohol drinking, foods intake including fat, fried or pickled, vegetables and fruits etc., the HR was 1.25 (95 %CI: 1.04-1.51) for obese people when compared with the normal weight persons. Further stratified analysis by age, gender and family history of CRC, results showed that obese people had a much higher risk of colorectal advanced adenoma than those with normal weight (male: HR=1.57, 95 %CI: 1.20-2.04; more than 60- year-old: HR=1.63, 95 %CI: 1.23-2.16). Conclusion:Data from this large scale population-based study revealed that obesity might be an independent risk factor for colorectal advanced adenoma and the risk increases along with the increase of BMI in China.

METHODSAccording to the 1-3 volumes of "Pathogenesis and death of malignancies in pilot program city and county of China", "Pathogenesis and death of cancer in China"(2003-2007) and "Registration annual report of tumor in China" published in 2011 and 2012, data of pathogenesis and death of colorectal cancer from 10 tumor registration spots, including Beijing urban, Shanghai urban, Wuhan urban, Harbin urban (defined as city urban), and Hebei Ci County, Jiangsu Qidong District, Zhejiang Jiashan District, Guangxi Fusui County, Fujian Changle District, Henan Lin County (defined as rural district), between 1988 and 2009 were collected. The morbidity and mortality were elucidated with world population standardized rate. Ratio of pathogenesis to death was calculated with crude rate of morbidity and mortality. Data of 22 years were enrolled into the linear regression analysis to calculate the annual change rate of morbidity and mortality statistically.

RESULTS(1) Colon cancer: morbidity presented increasing trend; male morbidity in city urban increased faster; mortality presented increasing trend as well; no significant difference of increasing velocity was observed between city urban and rural district; morbidity and mortality in city urban were higher compared to rural district; morbidity and mortality of males were higher compared to females; except stable Fujian Changle District, ratio of pathogenesis to death presented decreased trend in Shanghai urban and Hebei Ci County, and increased trend in other 7 spots (all P<0.05). (2) Rectal cancer: morbidity presented increasing trend, and its increasing velocity of city urban was faster compared to rural district; mortality presented decreased trend, especially in females, and this trend in rural district was worse compared to city urban; morbidity and mortality of males were higher compared to females, while no significant difference was observed between city urban and rural district; morbidity and mortality of males and females in Zhejiang Jiashan District were all decreased (all P<0.05); except stable Harbin city, ratio of pathogenesis to death presented increased trend in other 9 spots (all P<0.05). (3) Ratio analysis of morbidity and mortality showed that percentage of colon cancer increased gradually in all 10 spots between 1988-2009.

CONCLUSIONSIn the past 2 decades, the overall morbidity and mortality of colorectal cancer are higher in city urban and in male as compared with rural district and female. Colon cancer has higher morbidity than rectal cancer and its morbidity and mortality present increased trend, while morbidity of rectal cancer presents increased trend but its mortality presents decreased trend.
