Ripple structure is widely used in space suits,and the predicted trajectory motion is realized according to its large deformation behavior.Due to the complexity of irregular bellows structure,the existing researches are mostly based on the display dynamic method,and lack the systematic analysis of geometric nonlinearity and the effect of shell section thickness under the framework of statics.This study combines statics and arc length method(Riks),introduces linear buckling mode defects,and analyzes the ultimate bending behavior of irregular bellows with different shell thicknesses.It is concluded that the thick-shell model exhibits higher apparent deformation tolerance due to geometric softening effect,and the contact force distribution between ripples can be accurately extracted by static analysis,which provides a basis for the inversion of external force loads.The deformation mode of bellows after introducing defects based on statics-Riks is proposed,and the control mechanism of shell section thickness on deformation path is revealed.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological, immunophenotypic and molecular genetic characteristics, and differential diagnosis of NTRK-rearranged spindle cell neoplasms (NTRK-RSCNs) in the gastrointestinal tract.Methods:Two NTRK-RSCNs diagnosed at the Department of Pathology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China and one case diagnosed at Zhengzhou Central Hospital, Zhengzhou, China from 2019 to 2022 were collected. The clinical data, histopathology, immunophenotypes and prognosis were analyzed. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and next-generation sequencing (NGS) were used to detect NTRK gene rearrangements, while relevant literature was also reviewed and discussed.Results:Two patients were male and one was female, with the age of 17, 47 and 62 years, respectively. The tumors were located in the duodenum, ascending colon and descending colon, respectively. The tumors were protuberant masses with gray and rubbery sections. Their maximum diameter was 2.5, 5.0 and 10.0 cm, respectively. Histologically, the tumors invaded mucosa, intrinsic muscle and serosal adipose tissue. Tumor cells consisted of spindle or oval shaped cells with monotonous morphology and arranged in bundles or stripes pattern. Spindle cells were mildly to moderately atypical, with slightly eosinophilic cytoplasm and inconspicuous nucleoli. Necrosis and mitotic figures were observed in one high-grade tumor. All tumors expressed CD34, S-100 and pan-TRK in varying degrees. FISH analysis showed that NTRK1 gene was break-apart in 1 case and NTRK2 gene break-apart in 2 cases. NGS technologies showed LMNA::NTRK1 fusion in one case, STRN::NTRK2 fusion in another case. All patients recovered well after the surgery without recurrence at the end of the follow-up.Conclusions:NTRK-RSCN is rarely diagnosed in the gastrointestinal tract and has significant variations in morphology. It overlaps with various other mesenchymal tumors which should be considered as differential diagnoses. Be familiar with the features of histological morphology in combination with immunophenotype and molecular genetic characteristics can not only help diagnose NTRK-RSCNs, but provide therapeutic targets for clinical treatment.

Objective:To investigate the effects of sorafenib on hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels and recurrence in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with microvascular invasion.Methods:Ninety-two patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma who received treatment in Yiwu Central Hospital between November 2013 and November 2019 were included in this study. They were randomly assigned to undergo either conventional basic treatment (control group, n = 46) or conventional basic treatment and sorafenib treatment (study group, n = 46). Clinical efficacy, the incidence of adverse reactions and recurrence rate were compared between the two groups. Before and after treatment, HIF-1, alpha fetoprotein (AFP) and VEGF levels were also compared between the two groups. Results:After treatment, total effective rate in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group [63.04% (29 /46) vs. 28.26% (13/46), χ2 = 11.215, P < 0.05]. After treatment, HIF-1, AFP and VEGF levels in each group were significantly lower than those before treatment (all P > 0.05). After treatment, HIF-1 [(165.23 ± 39.67) pg/mL], AFP [(109.16 ± 67.31) ng/mL] and VEGF [(297.28 ± 42.41) pg/mL] levels in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group [(205.56 ± 40.23) pg/mL, (235.17 ± 106.41) ng/mL, (365.16 ± 40.91) pg/mL, t = 4.841, 6.788, 7.813, all P < 0.05]. There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups ( P > 0.05). Six-month follow-up revealed that the incidence of recurrence in the study group was significantly lower than that in the control group ( χ2 = 4.792, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Sorafenib can reduce the HIF-1, AFP and VEGF levels in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with microvascular invasion, improve the clinical efficacy, decrease the incidence of recurrence, but cannot increase the incidence of adverse reactions.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological features, molecular genetics, treatment and prognosis of Burkitt-like lymphoma with 11q aberration (BLL-11q).Methods:Six cases of BLL-11q diagnosed at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, from January 2016 to January 2020 were reviewed and analyzed using hematoxylin-eosin staining, immunohistochemistry, EBER in situ hybridization and fluorescence in situ hybridization. Clinical information including follow-up data was collected and analyzed.Results:The median age of the six immunocompetent patients was 29 years (range 20-38 years) and the male to female ratio was 5∶1. All patients had nodal disease in the head and neck region. Five patients had Ann Arbor stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ disease, while one patient had stage Ⅳ disease. Lymph nodes showed partial or total architectural effacement by a diffuse proliferation of monomorphic lymphocytes. Four cases were morphologically similar to Burkitt lymphoma, and two cases were unclassified with histological features between Burkitt lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Mitotic figures, apoptosis and necrosis were conspicuous. Five cases exhibited the"starry sky"pattern. CD20, CD10 and bcl-6 were diffusely and strongly positive. The Ki-67 index was more than 95%. The follicular-dendritic-cell meshwork was noted in one case using CD21 stain. C-MYC was expressed variably. CD3, bcl-2, MUM-1, CD30 and TDT were negative in all cases. EBER in situ hybridization was also all negative. FISH analyses using C-MYC, bcl-2 and bcl-6 break-apart probes were all negative. All cases had the 11q23.3 gain/11q24.3 loss pattern, and 11q23.3 amplification was found in one case. IgH and IRF4 break-apart probes analysis was also negative. All patients were alive with no disease after a follow-up of 4 to 19 months.Conclusion:BLL-11q is a rare lymphoma that resembles Burkitt lymphoma morphologically and phenotypically, but lacks C-MYC gene rearrangements. Instead, it has a chromosome-11q alteration characterized by proximal gains and telomeric losses. It′s necessary to improve our understanding of BLL-11q to avoid misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis.
