The high prognostic value of the histologic grade at the deep invasive front of tongue squamous cell carcinoma

BACKGROUND: Although many histopathologic factors in squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue predict the prognosis, the major predictive factors have not been identified clearly. This study analyzed the prognostic value of the histologic grade at the deep invasive front of tongue squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS: The clinicopathologic features of 124 consecutive patients seen between January 1985 and December 1999 with previously untreated squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue were reviewed. Their mean age was 58.5 years (range: 23-90) and the male-female ratio was 1.8: 1 (79 men and 45 women). There were 41, 40, 30, and 13 cases at stage I to stage IV, respectively. The clinicopathologic factors, especially the histologic grade at the deep invasive front (invasive front grade, IFG), were analyzed to determine factors predicting prognosis. RESULTS: The 5-year disease-free survival rate of the patients treated with curative aim only was 66.7%. Clinicopathologic factors significantly associated with the prognosis were T classification, tumor size, stage classification, tumor depth, macroscopic appearance, cervical lymph node metastasis (nodal metastasis), microvascular invasion, and IFG. In a multivariate analysis, patients with tumor depth >/=4 mm, IFG >/=8 points, and nodal metastasis had a reduced disease-free survival and IFG >/=11 points had a predictive value for nodal metastasis (odds ratio: 7.34; P = 0.0019). CONCLUSION: This study found that a high IFG malignancy score had a high prognostic value for squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue.

目的 探讨中药大陷胸汤高位保留灌肠对流行性出血热（EHF）急性肾衰的治疗作用。方法 将60例EHF急性肾衰患者随机分为对照组与治疗组各30例，对照组予以常规治疗，治疗组在常规治疗的基础上加用大陷胸汤高位保留灌肠，观察两组患者治疗前后的疗效。结果 治疗组治愈23例，好转6例，无效1例，总有效率96．7％；对照组治愈17例，好转7例，无效6例，总有效率80．0％；两组疗效比较，有显著差异性p〈0．05（x^2=4．630）。结论 大陷胸汤高位保留灌肠治疗EHF急性肾衰疗效显著，且简便、安全、经济、病人乐于接受等优点。     

Gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase activity during carcinogenesis of hamster buccal pouch epithelium

Gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) activity has been demonstratedhistochemically in a number of experimentally induced neoplasmsand has been suggested as a label for potential precursors forthe development of squamous cell carcinomas. This study exploresthe kinetics of GGT-stained cell populations, their correlationwith the hypothesized initiated cells and evidence of malignanttransformation of epithelium in hamster buccal pouch by a 15-weekregime of tri-weekly topical application of 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene(DMBA) in mineral oil. GGT-positive foci were detected histochemicallyin tissue sections as early as 1 week after application of thecarcinogen, when there was no morphological evidence of dysplasia.The average number of the GGT-positive foci in each experimentalperiod was found to increase with time. Even though the majorityof the foci were small, consisting of only a single cell ora small group of cells, a few larger GGT-positive lesions werenoted, particularly in the later period of the experiment. Atotal of 66 grossly visible neoplasms were found. Thirty-sevenof these were submitted for GGT staining. Thirty-two (86.5%)of these showed patchy GGT activity, primarily in the superficialepithelial cells and/or the keratin. In the non-neoplastic epithelium,the GGT staining could involve any or all layers of cells. GGTactivity was not detected in untreated or mineral oil-treatedmucosa. The results of this study support the hypothesis thatGGT activity may label potential precursors for the developmentof squamous cell carcinomas.

外科交接班存在的问题及对策

对于新病人。护理人员可为病人拟订护理计划并自己执行护理活动。但多数时间。护理人员是连续其他护理人员已执行的护理活动，因此交接班的好坏对护理质量有极大的影响。做好充分的交接班准备和一个能把握住重点的报告，可以得到真实完整的资料，使护理活动一开始就进入良好状况，保证原来护理工作的连续进行，提高护理质量。为此，2004年5月-2006年5月我科开始规范临床护理交接班工作，收到较好的效果。现将工作中存在问题进行分析并提出对策。     

T-lymphocyte subsets and serum carcinoembryonic antigen in patients with lung cancer and its dynamic changes after therapy]

Using the indirect immunofluorescent assay, we observed the variation of T-lymphocyte subsets of peripheral blood in 100 patients of primary bronchogenic carcinoma and 31 cases with active pulmonary tuberculosis. Serum CEA were measured simultaneously. The decrease of OKT3+, OKT4+, OKT8+ lymphocytes were significant in patients with lung cancer than that in healthy controls (P less than 0.01). The ratio of OKT4+/OKT8+ increased. It suggested that both cellular immunoincompetence and immunoregulatory abnormality were present in patients with lung cancer. After the resection of tumors 65 cases, the percentage of OKT4+ cells increased at the first week. Fourty seven cases were observed continuously for six months, it was found that OKT8+ cells increased (P less than 0.01). After anticancer chemotherapy, the patients with small cell carcinoma revealed a similar changes too. After operation and chemotherapy, serum CEA level decreased significantly too.
