人乳头状瘤病毒16 E7 DNA在结直肠腺癌组织中的表达

结直肠癌与人类乳头状瘤病毒(Human papilloma virus,HPV)感染有一定的关系,但由于检测方法、标本选择及样本数量不同,各研究结果之间差异很大。为进一步明确结直肠癌变与HPV16感染的关系,采用多聚酶链反应(Polymerase chain reaction,PCR)对82例原发性结直肠腺癌患者手术切除的新鲜癌及癌旁正常粘膜组织进行了前瞻性对照研究,检测了组织中HPV16E7DNA的表达并进行测序鉴定。结果显示,结直肠腺癌组织HPV16E7的表达阳性率(42/82)明显高于癌旁正常粘膜组织(4/82);直肠癌组织中HPV16E7的表达(64.10%)明显高于升结肠癌(18.18%),即癌灶部位距肛门越近,感染率越高;HPV16阳性率与Dukes分期相关,Dukes分期越晚感染率越高;与癌组织分化程度无相关性。结果提示结直肠癌的发生、发展可能与HPV16感染有关。

目的研究严重急性呼吸综合征（SARS）患者尸解肺标本的病理改变和致病机制。方法观察了2003年4-7月期间死于SARS的6例患者的肺标本,并采用光镜、电镜、Masson三色染色和免疫组织化学染色方法（EnVision法）进行研究。结果肺标本的病理形态改变：（1）6例的双肺均可见到弥漫性实变病灶,肺重量明显增加;（2）6例均可见到弥漫性肺泡损伤,包括透明膜形成、肺泡腔内水肿／出血、纤维素沉积和肺泡上皮细胞脱屑,AE1／AE3免疫组织化学染色显示肺泡上皮细胞的完整性明显破坏;（3）Ⅱ型肺泡上皮细胞轻度增生,有一定异型性,细胞体积增大,胞质呈双染性和颗粒状,胞质内可见小脂肪空泡聚集（5／6）;（4）6例中有5例可见巨细胞在肺泡内浸润,巨细胞大多AEl／AE3阳性（5／6）,少数CD68阳性（2／6）;（5）组织学形态和免疫组织化学染色证实肺泡腔内和肺泡间隔内有多量巨噬细胞浸润（6／6）;（6）6例中有5例可见巨噬细胞噬红细胞象;（7）6例中有5例可见肺纤维化,包括肺泡间隔和肺间质增宽（5／6）、肺泡腔内渗出物机化（6／6）和胸膜增厚（4／6）。Masson三色染色证实胶原纤维明显增生,免疫组织化学染色显示大多数为Ⅲ型胶原。光镜和免疫组织化学染色显示5例有明显的成纤维细胞／肌纤维母细胞增生灶;（8）5例可见支气管黏膜鳞状上皮化生;（9）6例患者均可见血栓;（10）2例同时合并其他感染,1例合并细菌感染,另1例合并真菌感染。此外,电镜发现在肺泡上皮细胞和肺血管内皮细胞的胞质内有冠状病毒样颗粒。结论SARS冠状病毒直接损伤肺泡上皮细胞、巨噬细胞明显浸润和成纤维细胞／肌纤维母细胞显著增生在SARS的致病机制中起重要作用。     

143例晚期喉癌患者的临床特征及生存分析

目的 总结143例晚期喉癌患者的临床特征,分析预后的影响因素。方法 回顾性分析2010年1月-2016年12月经中国人民解放军总医院治疗的143例晚期喉癌患者的临床资料。其中,男135例(94.4%),女8例(5.6%);年龄35~79岁,中位年龄58岁。依据患者治疗方案不同分为2组:手术联合术后放化疗组106例和非手术综合治疗组37例。收集患者基本临床情况、治疗、随访及生存情况;生存率及单因素生存分析采用Kaplan-Meier法和log-rank检验,多因素生存分析采用Cox比例风险回归模型。结果 143例晚期喉癌患者的5年总体生存率为67.9%。单因素分析显示,影响晚期喉癌患者预后的临床因素有年龄、临床分期、T分期及肿瘤分化程度等(P值均<0.05);Cox模型多因素分析显示,患者年龄、临床分期、肿瘤分化程度及治疗方式是影响预后的独立危险因素(P值均<0.05)。T₄期、临床Ⅳ期患者采用手术联合术后放化疗5年生存率分别为62.2%和59.5%,明显好于非手术综合治疗的18.2%和41.4%,差异均有统计学意义(P值均<0.05)。结论 晚期喉癌患者预后相对较差,影响患者预后的因素包括患者年龄、临床分期、肿瘤分化程度及治疗方式等。对于临床Ⅳ期、尤其是T₄期患者,采取手术联合术后放化疗可以获得相对较好的预后。     

Diagnosis of squamous-cell carcinoma of the lung by sputum cytology: with special reference to correlation of diagnostic accuracy with size and proximal extent of resected tumor

Sputum cytology was performed in 179 cases of squamous-cell carcinoma of the lung; 134 cases were diagnosed as positive. There were no significant differences in diagnostic accuracy of sputum cytology between tumors sizes. In cases with tumors extending proximally into the main, lobar, or segmental bronchi, the diagnostic accuracy of sputum cytology was significantly higher than in cases where the proximal invasion of tumor was limited to the peripheral bronchi. In cases with tumors 3 cm or less in diameter, when tumors extended proximally into main, lobar, or segmental bronchi, the diagnostic accuracy of sputum cytology was significantly higher than in cases with tumors extending proximally into subsegmental or subsubsegmental bronchi. In peripherally located squamous-cell carcinoma, in cases in which the tumor arose in subsegmental or subsubsegmental bronchi, carcinoma could be detected by sputum cytology even when it was roentgenographically occult.     

Tumour-to-tumour metastasis

The clinico-pathological characteristics of these cases are briefly discussed with a review of the literature.     

联合检测血清中CYFRA21-1、NSE对肺癌诊断的价值

目的探讨联合检测血清中肿瘤标记物CYFRA21-1、NSE对肺癌早期诊断、病情监测及疗效判定的价值。方法将肺癌患者分为非小细胞肺癌组(NSCLC)和小细胞肺癌组(SCLC),以健康人及肺部良性病变患者(BLD)为对照组。静脉取血,采用免疫放射法(IRMA)、放射免疫法(RIA)分别检测血清CYFRA21-1和NSE。结果血清CYFRA21-1水平在NSCLC组明显高于SCLC和BLD组(P<0.01),其对NSCLC诊断的阳性率显著高于SCLC组(58.1%vs16.7%,P<0.01)。NSE则在SCLC组明显高于NSCLC和BLD组(P<0.01),其对SCLC诊断的阳性率为66.7%,显著高于NSCLC组24.3%(P<0.01)。血清CYFRA21-1、NSE联合检测与各单项指标相比,可将肺癌诊断的敏感度、特异度和阳性率分别提高到79.1%、91.7%和85.0%(P<0.01)。此外,在NSCLC组,血清CYFRA21-1含量变化与肿瘤分期呈正相关,且与患者病情的变化有相关性。结论联合检测血清中CYFRA21-1、NSE水平可明显提高肺癌早期诊断的阳性率,从而提高肺癌的早期诊断。临床上动态监测血清CYFRA21-1水平对NSCLC的进程及疗效判断有一定的价值。     

Enhancement of O2 and CO2 Transfer Through Microporous Hollow Fibers by Pressure Cycling

An intravascular gas exchange device for the treatment of respiratory failure consisted of a multitude of blind-ended hollow fibers glued in a pine-needle arrangement to a central gas supply catheter. It has previously been shown that gas desorption rates can be significantly enhanced by cycling gas pressure between a hypobaric level of 130 and an ambient level of 775 Torr. In this study, influences of the cycling frequency (f) and the cycle fraction during which hypobaric pressure is applied () were investigated. Rates of O₂ desorption from O₂-saturated water and CO₂ desorption from CO₂-saturated water into a manifold containing 198 fibers, 380 m in diameter, were measured over a range of f from 0.2 to 1.0 Hz, from 0.1 to 0.8, and fiber lengths from 4 to 16 cm. Relative to operation at ambient pressure, pressure cycling increased O₂ transfer 3–4 times and CO₂ transfer 4–6 times when the water flowed over the fiber manifold at 2.3 l/min. Transfer rates were relatively insensitive to f and with 80–90% of maximum enhancement obtained when was as low as 0.2. Transfer rates increased continuously with fiber length, implying that pressure cycling reduced the intra-fiber resistance to gas diffusion. A mathematical diffusion model which utilized only two adjustable parameters, a mass transfer coefficient for O₂ and for CO₂, simulated the trends exhibited by desorption data. © 1998 Biomedical Engineering Society.

大肠腺瘤三维结构的临床病理研究

我们应用三维结构（３－Ｄ）再构成计算机系统，以０．２ｍｍ间隔连续切片，ＨＥ染色，对５０例经纤维结肠镜切除的大肠腺瘤各种异型上皮的体积及分布规律进行研究。其中癌变１７例（３４％），其平均体积是单纯腺瘤的３．４倍。腺瘤体积越大，其癌变率越高，但体积较小的亚有蒂型腺瘤也有很高癌变率（２５％）。研究结果表明腺瘤体积大小与平均异型度无相关关系。用常规方法切片，仅检出１４例有癌变，漏诊率１８％。为提高腺瘤癌变检出率，至少应以０．６ｍｍ间隔连续切片。此种方法对准确判定断端有无癌浸润也有重要意义。     

Alteration of E-cadherin-mediated adhesion protein is common,but microsatellite instability is uncommon in young age gastric cancers

AIMS: Gastric adenocarcinoma in young patients has been considered to differ in many ways from gastric carcinoma in older patients. This study was designed to determine the clinicopathological features and molecular mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS: Based on 4123 patients of gastric cancer in Seoul National University Hospital, 135 patients (3.3%) were chosen by the age of 30 years or younger. Expression of E-cadherin, beta-catenin, p53 and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) was analysed using the tissue array method in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens and microsatellite instability (MSI) was determined. As a control, 320 cases of older patients were compared. Gastric adenocarcinoma of young patients revealed significant female predominance, type IV gross type, proximal location, diffuse type and frequent lymph node metastasis. In-situ hybridization for EBV showed higher positivity in young patients (9/78, 11.5%) than in older ones, but not statistically significant. In EBV+ cases, p53 over-expression was significantly higher in young patients than older patients (P < 0.05). Alteration of E-cadherin or beta-catenin was significantly higher in younger patients than in older patients (P < 0.05). Overall survival was significantly poorer in younger patients than older ones. The frequency of MSI was rare (1.3%, P < 0.05) in young patients compared with older patients (9.3%). CONCLUSIONS: These data indicate that gastric adenocarcinoma of young patients has a poor prognosis, possesses aggressive histopathological features, exhibits reduced expression of E-cadherin and beta-catenin, and demonstrates lower MSI than tumours in older patients.
