ObjectiveTo improve the knowledge of double primary lung cancer. MethodsA case of synchronous double primary lung cancers, who was diagnosed by bronchoscopic examination and immunohistochemical staining in our department in 2012, was analyzed retrospectively. The literatures were review with "double primary, lung cancer, squamous cell carcinoma, small cell lung carcinoma" as the research terms in Wanfang, CNKI and PubMed database. ResultsA 76-year-old male patient complained of intermittent cough, chest pain and wheezing over half a month. Chest computer tomography showed masslike lesion with high density in hilum of right lung. The patient received bronchoscopic examination, the pathological and immunohistochemical findings was squamous cell carcinoma and small cell lung carcinoma. The imaging manifestations and bronchoscopy findings were consistent with pathologic diagnosis. A total of 7 pieces of literature were retrived in above-mentioned databases. Seven patients had long smoke history and 6 were male. Four patients complained about couph and sputum, and 1 patient had chest pain. CT showed masses in the lung or hilus with or without stenosis and obliteration of the bronchus. Five patients were proven by bronchoscopy and biopsy. ConclusionDouble primary lung cancer has characteristics in radiologic features and bronchoscopy performance, so can be early diagnosed by bronchoscopy and histopathology.
ObjectiveTo analyze the influence of different surgical methods on survival and relapse-free survival in colorectal liver metastases. MethodsClinical data of 71 cases of colorectal liver metastases who treated in PLA General Hospital from January 2002 to may 2013 were collected retrospectively, to analyzed the effect of different surgical methods on survival and relapse-free survival of this kind of cases. ResultsAll of primary lesions underwent radical resection. And for the liver metastases, 20 cases didn't received any intervention (non-intervention group), 20 cases underwent resection of liver metastases, 20 cases underwent radiofrequency ablation, and 11 cases underwent radiofrequency ablation and resection of liver metastases (all 61 cases who received intervention were classified to intervention group). Results of Cox proportional hazards model showed that, in the condition of controlling other confounding factors, intervention can improve the survival (HR=1.724, P=0.043) and relapse-free survival (HR=0.701, P=0.048) of cases of colorectal liver metastases, cases who received intervention had better survival situation and the relapse-free survival situation. ConclusionFor cases of colorectal liver metastases, in condition of radical operation for colorectal cancer, the intervention for liver metastases can prolong the survival time and relapse-free survival time.
The existing one-time identity authentication technology cannot continuously guarantee the legitimacy of user identity during the whole human-computer interaction session, and often requires active cooperation of users, which seriously limits the availability. This study proposes a new non-contact identity recognition technology based on cardiac micro-motion detection using ultra wideband (UWB) bio-radar. After the multi-point micro-motion echoes in the range dimension of the human heart surface area were continuously detected by ultra wideband bio-radar, the two-dimensional principal component analysis (2D-PCA) was exploited to extract the compressed features of the two-dimensional image matrix, namely the distance channel-heart beat sampling point (DC-HBP) matrix, in each accurate segmented heart beat cycle for identity recognition. In the practical measurement experiment, based on the proposed multi-range-bin & 2D-PCA feature scheme along with two conventional reference feature schemes, three typical classifiers were selected as representatives to conduct the heart beat identification under two states of normal breathing and breath holding. The results showed that the multi-range-bin & 2D-PCA feature scheme proposed in this paper showed the best recognition effect. Compared with the optimal range-bin & overall heart beat feature scheme, our proposed scheme held an overall average recognition accuracy of 6.16% higher (normal respiration: 6.84%; breath holding: 5.48%). Compared with the multi-distance unit & whole heart beat feature scheme, the overall average accuracy increase was 27.42% (normal respiration: 28.63%; breath holding: 26.21%) for our proposed scheme. This study is expected to provide a new method of undisturbed, all-weather, non-contact and continuous identification for authentication.
ObjectiveTo investigate the prognosis after breast conserving surgery (BCS) and modified radical mastectomy (MRM) in patients with stage Ⅰ–Ⅱ breast cancer, and analyze the factors related to locoregional recurrence (LRR).MethodsThe clinicopathologic and prognostic data of patients with stage Ⅰ–Ⅱ breast cancer who underwent the surgical treatment in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2011 to December 2014 were analyzed. The clinicopathologic characteristics and prognostic differences of the BCS group and MRM group were compared. The factors related to LRR of patients underwent the BCS and MRM were analyzed.ResultsA total of 1 330 patients with stage Ⅰ–Ⅱ breast cancer were included in this study, including 230 in the BCS group and 1 100 in the MRM group. Compared with the MRM group, the patients in the BCS group had higher height (P<0.001), younger age (P<0.001), smaller tumor diameter (P<0.001), and less axillary lymph node metastasis (P<0.001). Up to August 2019, 149 cases (18 cases in the BCS group and 131 cases in the MRM group) were lost, with a follow-up rate of 88.8%. The median follow-up time was 71 months (4－103 months). The LRR rate of the BCS group was higher than that of the MRM group (6.1% versus 2.5%, χ2=7.002, P<0.01). The locoregional recurrence-free survival of the MRM group was better than that of the BCS group (χ2=7.886, P<0.01). However, there were no statistical differences between the two groups in terms of the distant metastasis-free survival and disease-free survival (P>0.05). In the patients underwent the BCS, the HER-2 was associated with the LRR (P<0.05), and the axillary lymph node metastasis was associated with the LRR in the patients underwent the MRM (P<0.05).ConclusionsAccording to results of this study, although there is a significant difference in locoregional recurrence-free survival between BCS group and MRM group in patients with stage Ⅰ–Ⅱ breast cancer, there are no statistical differences in distant metastasis-free survival and disease-free survival between the two groups. Therefore, it is safe and feasible for choosing appropriate patients with stage Ⅰ–Ⅱ breast cancer to underwent breast-conserving treatment.
