Abstract
Objective: Endoplasmic reticulum stress(ERS)was used as the research emphasis to further investigate the mechanisms of apoptosis of FLT3-ITD-mutated leukemia cells and decreased expression of FLT3-ITD mutated protein induced by all-trans retinoic acid(ATRA). Methods: FLT3-ITD-mutated leukemia cell lines(MV4-11 and MOLM13)were treated with ATRA. Flow cytometry was conducted to assess cell apoptosis. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)and Western blot were used to detect the expression of ERS-related and autophagy-related genes and protein, respectively. Results: A low-dose ATRA further increased FLT3-ITD cells and ERS levels. ATRA acted on the ERS-related PERK/eif2ɑ signaling pathway and continued to increase the ERS of FLT3-ITD cells, resulting in an upregulation of apoptotic gene CHOP expression. After the treatment with ATRA, FLT3-ITD protein in FLT3-ITD cells was decreased. Of the two main ERS-related protein degradation pathways, ER-associated degradation(ERAD)and ER-activated autophagy(ERAA), the expression of ERAD-related protein ATF6 in FLT3-ITD cells was not significantly changed on ATRA, whereas the expression of ERAA-related proteins Atg7 and Atg5 were significantly increased. Conclusions: ATRA further raises the ERS level of FLT3-ITD cells continuously by activating the ERS-related PERK/eif2ɑ signal pathway and induces FLT3-ITD protein autophagy degradation through ERAA pathway, which induces apoptosis of FLT3-ITD-mutated leukemia cells. These results provide preliminary evidence on the use of ATRA in the treatment of refractory leukemia with FLT3-ITD.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the pathomorphological characteristics of colorectal adenoma with submucosal pseudoinvasion and to summarize the corresponding pseudoinvasion patterns. Methods: The clinicopathological data of 9 cases of colorectal adenoma were collected at 989 Hospital of PLA Joint Logistics Support Force (4 cases) and Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University (5 cases), from 2016 to 2019. retrospectively, and the histomorphological characteristics and immunophenotypes were analyzed, and discussed in light of the relevant literature. Results: There were 8 cases of adenoma with stalk. Tumor glands were found in the submucosa at the head end of adenoma, similar to infiltrating adenocarcinoma. The structure and cellular morphology of submucosal glands were very similar to the intramucosal tumor while the local submucosal tumor showed continuity with the intramucosal tumor. The submucosal tumors were lobule-like or nest-like with clear boundary. The outline of the gland was smooth and blunt-round, and there was loose fibromyxoid stroma around the gland, similar to the mucosa propria stroma. Some cases of the submucosal glands were cystic dilated with mucocele formation and hemosiderin deposition. One case with broad stalk-base showed an elevated adenoma with local high grade dysplasia involved in the aggregated lymphoid nodule, forming the lymphoglandular complexes, simulating invasive adenocarcinoma with associated submucosal lymphoid aggregates. Submucosal cancer tissue and intramucosal cancer tissue had continuity, and their morphology was the same. The submucosal tumor was round in the outline, smooth and blunt in the edge, and surrounded by lymphoid tissue. There was no stromal response around the gland to promote the proliferation of connective tissue, neither was there single-cell or small-cell cluster, sharp angle branch of gland, or vascular infiltration. Conclusions: There are two unique morphological patterns in colorectal adenoma with submucosal pseudoinvasion. Morphologically, the data show that one is lobular-like pattern, and the other is lymphoglandular complexes-like pattern. The main features of the two patterns are the same-morphology and continuity of submucosal tumor and intramucosal tumor. The pushed glands were surrounded by the intrinsic membrane stroma and muscularis mucosae in proper order, lacking the typical morphological characteristics of invasive adenocarcinoma.

Methods: This retrospective multicenter cohort study enrolled 3 528 consecutive GBC patients diagnosed between January 2010 to December 2017 in 15 hospitals from 10 provinces. There were 1 345 (38.12%) males and 2 183 (61.88%) females.The age of diagnosis was (63.7±10.8) years old (range: 26 to 99 years old) .There were 213 patients (6.04%) in stage 0 to Ⅰ, whereas 1 059 (30.02%) in stage Ⅱ to Ⅲ, 1 874 (53.12%) in stage Ⅳ, and 382 (10.83%) unavailable. Surgery was performed on 2 255 patients (63.92%) . Three hundred and thirty-six patients received chemotherapy or radiotherapy (9.52%; of which 172 were palliative); 1 101 (31.21%) received only supportive treatment.The patient source, treatment and surgery, pathology, concomitant gallstone, and prognosis were analyzed. Results: Among the 3 528 GBC patients, 959 (27.18%) were from East China, 603 (17.09%) from East-North China, 1 533 (43.45%) from Central China, and 433(12.27%) from West China. Among the 1 578 resectable tumor, 665 (42.14%) underwent radical surgery, 913 (57.86%) underwent surgery that failed to follow the guidelines.Eight hundred and ninety-one (56.46%) patients were diagnosed before surgery, 254 (16.10%) during surgery, and 381 (24.14%) after surgery (time point of diagnosis couldn't be determined in 52 patients) .Among the 1 578 patients with resectable tumor, 759 (48.10%) had concomitant gallstone.Among the 665 patients underwent radical surgery, 69 (10.4%) showed positive resection margin, 510 (76.7%) showed negative resection margin, and 86 (12.9%) unreported margin status.The 5-year overall survival rate (5yOS) for the 3 528-patient cohort was 23.0%.The 5yOS for patients with resectable tumor was 39.6%, for patients with stage ⅣB tumor without surgery was 5.4%, and for patients with stage ⅣB tumor underwent palliative surgery was 4.7%. Conclusions: More than half GBC patients in China are diagnosed in stage Ⅳ.Curative intent surgery is valuable in improving prognosis of resectable GBC.The treatment of GBC needs further standardization.Effective comprehensive treatment for GBC is in urgent need.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to explore the regulatory effect of micro ribonucleic acid (miR)-19a on diabetic retinopathy (DR) through mediating the phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN)/protein kinase B (Akt) signaling pathway. Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats were first divided into Healthy group, DR group and miR-19a inhibitor group. The DR model was induced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ) (60 mg/kg). The retinal tissues were dissected and RGCs were isolated. The expression level of miR-19a therein was determined using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). The pathological changes were observed through hematoxylin-eosin staining (HE) staining. The apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. PTEN was predicted as a target gene of miR-19a through TargetScan biological software. The protein expression of PTEN was detected via immunofluorescence assay. The changes in the phosphatidylinositol 3-hydroxy kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway-associated proteins were detected using Western blotting. The expression of miR-19a declined substantially in DR rats injected with miR-19a inhibitor (P<0.05). RGCs were arranged regularly, showing apoptosis and milder necrosis in miR-19a inhibitor group. The proportion of apoptotic cells was substantially decreased in miR-19a inhibitor group (P<0.05). It was found that miR-19a inhibitor group exhibited an evidently lower protein expression of PTEN and a higher activation degree of the Akt pathway than DR group (P<0.05). MiR-19a binds to PTEN protein in a targeted manner to mediate the PI3K/Akt pathway, thereby affecting the progression of DR.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the relationship between the brain glucose metabolism and left ventricular function parameters, and to explore the cerebral glucose metabolism reduction regions in patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD). Methods: A total of 110 consecutive IHD patients who underwent gated (99)Tc(m)-sestamibi (MIBI) SPECT/CT myocardial perfusion imaging, gated (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT myocardial and brain glucose metabolic imaging within three days in Beijing Anzhen Hospital from April 2016 to October 2017, were enrolled in this study. Left ventricular functional parameters of SPECT/CT and PET/CT including end-diastolic volume (EDV), end-systolic volume (ESV) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were analyzed by QGS software. Viable myocardium and myocardial infarction region were determined by 17-segment and 5 score system, and the ratio of viable myocardium and scar myocardium was calculated. According to the range of viable myocardium, the patients were divided into viable myocardium<10% group (n=44), viable myocardium 10%-<20% group (n=36) and viable myocardium≥20% group (n=30). Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the range of viable myocardium and scar myocardium and the level of cerebral glucose metabolism. Brain glucose metabolism determined by the mean of standardized uptake value (SUV(mean)) was analyzed by SPM. The ratio of SUV(mean) in whole brain and SUV(mean) in cerebellum were calculated, namely taget/background ratio (TBR). Differences in cerebral glucose metabolism among various groups were analyzed by SPM. Results: There were 101 males, and age was (57±10) years in this cohort. The extent of viable myocardium and the extent of scar, LVEF evaluated by SPECT/CT and PET/CT were significantly correlated with TBR (r=0.280, r=-0.329, r=0.188, r=0.215 respectively,all P<0.05). TBR value was significantly lower in viable myocardium<10% group, compared with viable myocardium 10%-<20% group (1.25±0.97 vs. 1.32±0.17, P<0.05) and viable myocardium≥20% group (1.25±0.97 vs. 1.34±0.16, P<0.05). Furthermore, in comparison with viable myocardium≥20% group, the hypo-metabolic regions of viable myocardium<10% group were located in the precuneus, frontal lobe, postcentral gyrus, parietal lobe, temporal lobe, and so on. Conclusions: There is a correlation between impaired left ventricular function and brain glucose metabolism in IHD patients. In IHD patients with low myocardial viability, the level of glucose metabolism in the whole brain is decreased, especially in the brain functional areas related to cognitive function.

Abstract
Objective: To research the auditory nerve transduction effects under multi-wavelength pulsed laser stimulations within a safe and acceptable signal range. Methods: The real-time detection of intracellular calcium concentration was adopted by specific fluorescent indicator staining based on calcium imager. The spiral ganglion cells of mice were cultured in vitro. After fluorescent indicating, morphologic observation under optical microscope, Fura-2 calcium ion fluorescence excitation, intact morphology cells selection, fixing the optical fiber, the spiral ganglion cells were irradiated by different wavelength laser, including visible light (450 nm) and near infrared light (808 nm,1 065 nm). The intracellular calcium concentration was monitored by calcium ion imaging. Results: When 450 nm laser stimulated spiral ganglion cells, the intracellular calcium concentration was strongly increased, however, for other wavelength laser stimulation, there was no obvious relative response. And the sensitivity expression of the nerve cells under laser was related with the location of laser fiber. Cells closer to the fiber produced more obvious changes in calcium ion concentration, while for cells farther away from the fiber, the change amplitudes were weaker although the number of changes in calcium ion concentration was consistent. Conclusion: The spiral ganglion cells of mice can induce a signal transduction response under the action of laser, and the response has laser wavelength selectivity.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the molecular characteristics of Listeria monocytogenes strains from ready-to eat food in China. Methods: A total of 239 Listeria monocytogenes strains isolated from ready-to-eat food in 2017, all strains underwent whole-genome sequencing (WGS) , and comparisons uncovered population structure derived from lineages, clonal complex, serogroups, antimicrobial susceptibility and virulence, which were inferred in silico from the WGS data. Core genome multilocus sequence typing was used to subtype isolates. Results: All strains were categorized into three different lineages, lineage Ⅱ was the predominant types in food, and IIa was the main serogroups. CC8, CC101 and CC87 were the first three prevalent CCs among 23 detected CCs, accounting for 49.4%. Only 4.6% (11 isolates) of tested strains harbored antibiotic resistance genes, which were mostly trimethoprim genes (7 isolates, 2.9%). All strains were positive for LIPI-1, and only a part of strains harbored LIPI-3 and LIPI-4, accounting for 13.8% (33 isolates) and 14.2% (34 isolates), respectively. ST619 carried both LIPI-3 and LIPI-4. 51.5% (123 isolates) of strains carried SSI-1, and all CC121 strains harbored SSI-2. Different lineages, serogroups and CCs can be separated obviously through cgMLST analysis, and 24 sublineages were highly concordant with CCs. Conclusion: Ⅱa was the main serogroups in ready-to-eat food isolates in China; CC8, CC101 and CC87 were the prevalent CCs, and CC87 isolates was hypervirulent isolates, cgMLST method can be adopted for prospective foodborne disease surveillance and outbreaks detection.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the effect of listening to different types of music on intraocular pressure (IOP) and the underlying mechanism. Methods: Cross-sectional study. Participants were students from Sun Yat-sen University from October 2017 to May 2018. The study consisted of two parts. In part 1, three types of music, including relaxing, positive and negative music, were used to find out which kind of music could reduce IOP. IOP was measured before and after listening to music. A self-report questionnaire was used to evaluate emotional responses to each type of music. In part 2, the diurnal curve of IOP at 6 time points of 7:30, 9:30, 11:30, 13:30, 15:30 and 17:30 was measured to determine when the individual's IOP peaked. On the second day, the subject listened to the music that could reduce IOP for 15 minutes at his/her IOP peak time. IOP, blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) were measured, and morphology of the chamber angle was captured by swept-source optical coherence tomography before and after listening to music. Image J software was used to measure the diameter and cross-sectional area of Schlemm's canal (SC). Paired t-test was used to compare BP, HR and SC measurements prior to and post-music intervention. Results: In part 1, fifteen subjects, including 7 males and 8 females, were enrolled, with an average age of (23±1) years. Relaxation music could significantly lower IOP [(11.62±2.51) vs. (12.65±2.49) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) , t=-2.39, P=0.032]. Positive music had no effect on IOP [(12.45±2.77) vs. (12.65±2.46) mmHg, P=0.566] and negative music increased IOP [(12.13±1.60) vs. (10.86±2.78) mmHg, t=2.45, P=0.029]. Relaxation music could also arouse relaxation emotions in 14 out of 15 subjects. In part 2, 55 subjects, including 20 males and 35 females, were enrolled, with an average age of (26±10) years. The diurnal curve of IOP at 6 time points of every participant was measured. At each individual's peak time point, listening to relaxation music could decrease IOP [(12.66±4.32) vs. (13.99±4.47) mmHg, t=-5.72, P<0.01]. HR before and after listening to relaxation music was (79.57±10.43) and (75.57±9.62) beats/min, respectively (t=-3.68, P=0.001). Systolic BP was (118.11±13.92) and (110.82±12.67) mmHg, respectively (t=-5.10, P<0.01). Diastolic BP significantly declined from (70.07±9.96) to (66.14±8.48) mmHg (t=-3.65, P=0.001). Average SC area significantly increased after listening to relaxation music [(255.96±93.36) vs. (230.07±92.20) pixels, t=2.88, P=0.006]. Average SC diameter was (8.62±1.89) and (9.41±2.37) pixels, respectively before and after listening to relaxation music (t=3.39, P=0.001). Conclusion: Relaxation music reduces IOP in healthy subjects probably by dilating the SC.(Chin J Ophthalmol, 2020, 56: 25-31).

Abstract
Objective:This study evaluated the effect of traumatic olfactory nerve injury on drug delivery through the nasal-brain pathway via the instillation of ¹⁸F-FDG at the olfactory cleft. Method:Seven healthy volunteers and 5 patients with traumatic dysosmia were enrolled in the study. Subjects were all instilled with ¹⁸F-FDG on each side of the olfactory cleft under endoscopy. After 12 hours, a PET/MR scan was performed to track the metabolism pathway of ¹⁸F-FDG. Then, we compared the diameter of the olfactory bulb and the olfactory bulb intake between normal volunteers and patients with traumatic olfactory disorders. Result:In healthy volunteers, there was a significant difference in ¹⁸F-FDG uptake between the regions of interest in which ¹⁸F-FDG was or was not in contact with the cribriform plate(P=0.012 7); this difference also existed in patients with traumatic olfactory disorders(P=0.038 1). Patients with traumatic olfactory disorders did not exhibit significant differences in ¹⁸F-FDG uptake in the region of interest compared with healthy volunteers(P=0.937 2). Conclusion:The olfactory bulb is obviously atrophied in patients with traumatic olfactory dysfunction, and the uptake of ¹⁸F-FDG in the olfactory bulb region of interest is also reduced. The administration of ¹⁸F-FDG via olfactory fissure area can enter olfactory bulb and parafrontal tissues through the nasal brain pathway,¹⁸F-FDG can enter the central nervous system through the nasal-brain pathway, which is not affected by olfactory nerve transection injury.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the utility of a portable monitor at home for diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in Chinese adults. Methods: Eighty nine patients suspected of OSA underwent overnight, unattended home sleep apnea testing (HSAT) with a portable monitor (Nox-T3, Nox Medical Inc. Iceland)followed by an in-laboratory polysomnogram (PSG) with simultaneous portable monitor (PM) recording within one week. PSG and PM recorder were scored according to recommended guidelines by independent technicians. The correlation between PSG apnea hypopnea index (AHI) and PM respiratory disturbance index (RDI) were evaluated. Results: Sleep testing showed RDI was (30.0±20.9) events/h on HSAT, and (33.4±22.4) events/h on in-laboratory PM recording. Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) on PSG was (35.1±23.7) events/h. There was significantly statistical difference among the three group (P<0.001). Both RDI on HSAT and RDI on in-laboratory PM correlated significantly with AHI on PSG (r=0.877, P<0.001 and r=0.962, P<0.001, respectively). Bland-Altman analysis of AHI on PSG versus RDI on HSAT showed a mean difference of 4.4 events/h; limits of agreement was -17.6 to 26.5 events/h. Closer agreements were present when comparing the simultaneous recordings, with AHI on PSG versus RDI on in-laboratory PM showing a mean difference of 1.4 events/h, and limits of agreement was -11.3 to 14.2 events/h. Based on a threshold of AHI≥5 events/h, RDI on HSAT had 98.8% sensitivity, 40.0% specificity. Using an AHI ≥ 15 events/h, RDI on HSAT had 91.5% sensitivity, 76.5% specificity. Conclusion: Type 3 PM has a good diagnostic value for adult OSA patients and there is close agreement between the Type 3 portable monitor and PSG.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the diagnostic efficiency of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) for mass lesions in dense breast by comparing with digital mammography (DM). Methods: A retrospective analysis was made of 125 female patients with breast masses confirmed by pathology in the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University from June 2018 to April 2019, all of whom were dense breast. Pathological results were taken to compare the diagnostic value of DM, DBT and the combination of the two for breast mass lesions. Results: The overall detection rates of DM, DBT and their combination were 77.6% (97/125), 88.8%(111/125) and 92.8%(116/125) in dense breast. The detection rates of burr sign and lobulation sign by DM and DBT in malignant tumors were 39.7%(31/78), 60.3%(47/78) and 48.7%(38/78), 67.9%(53/78), respectively, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). The sensitivity of DM, DBT and their combination in differentiating benign from malignant breast mass lesions of dense breast was 75.6% (59/78), 83.3%(65/78), 93.6%(73/78), the specificity was 63.8%(30/47), 80.9% (38/47), 76.6%(36/47),and the area under ROC curve(AUC) was 0.697, 0.821 and 0.852, respectively. Conclusion: DBT is more effective than DM in the diagnosis of dense breast mass lesions, and the combination of DBT and DM is more significant.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate developmental changes of the thymus and intra- thymic IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α expression in weaned Sprague-Dawley rats induced by lipopolysac- charide. METHODS Forty healthy weaned rats aged 26 days and weighing 83±4 g were randomly and equally divided into two groups. The lipopolysaccharide group was treated daily with a single injection of lipopolysaccharide for 10 consecutive days, and the saline group was treated with an equal volume of sterilized saline. On the 1st, 4th, 7th and 10th day, histological changes and distribu- tion of IL-1β-, IL-6- and TNF-α-positive cells were detected in the thymus by hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemistry staining, respectively. Subsequently, the expression levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α were evaluated in the thymus by the ELISA method. RESULTS Thymus weight and index were significantly smaller in lipopolysaccharide-treated rats than in saline-treated rats (p⟨0.05), but no substantial changes were found in the thymus microstructure after lipopolysaccharide induction. Moreover, a large number of IL-1β-, IL-6- and TNF-α-positive cells were observed with brownish-yellow color and mainly distributed in the thy- mus parenchyma, both integrated optical density and average optical density increased signifi- cantly in lipopolysaccharide-treated rats than those in saline-treated rats. Compared with the saline group, most of the thymic homogenates had higher levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in the lipopolysaccharide group on different days. CONCLUSION These findings indicate that the thymus atrophied after lipopolysaccharide induction in weaned Sprague-Dawley rats, and excessive production of intrathymic IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α was probably involved in the atrophic process.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the clinical characteristics of 24 patients with cysticercosis of the fourth ventricle, and to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of microsurgery. METHODS The clinical data of 24 patients with cysticercosis of the fourth ventricle referred the Department of Neurosurgery of the Affiliated Hospital of Qinghai University from January 2000 to December 2018 were collected, and the clinical features, imaging characteristics, surgical methods, therapeutic efficacy and postoperative complications were analyzed. RESULTS The 24 patients included 15 men and 9 women, and had a mean age of 43.5 years (range, 16 to 68 years). Preoperative imaging examinations showed obvious dilatation of bilateral lateral ventricles, the third ventricle and middle cerebral aqueduct, and spherical or cystic dilatation of the fourth ventricle. There were 18 cases positive for antibodies against cysticercus, and 3 of the 21 cases were egg positives. All 24 cases received microsurgery, including 8 cases via the median aperture approach, 7 cases via the median aperture-cerebellar vermis approach, and 9 cases via the transcerebellomedullary fissure approach. There were 17 cases with complete delivery of vesicles, 5 cases with vesicle rupture and 2 cases with extraction of cystic fluid followed by separation and removal of cystic wall. All cases had obvious retraction of the ventricular system and disappearance of intracranial hypertension following surgery. There were 19 cases (79.17%) with well recovery, and 5 cases (20.83%) with aggravation or development of cerebellar ataxia, which recovered following treatment for 1 to 2 weeks. CONCLUSIONS The transcerebellomedullary fissure approach is a safe and lowly invasive approach for the treatment of cysticercosis of the fourth ventricle.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and significance of solid, endometrioid and transitional (SET) ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC). Methods: A total of 408 cases of ovarian HGSC admitted to Peking University People's Hospital from January 2011 to September 2016 were collected. (1) According to the proportion of tumors with SET form in all tumors, they were divided into three groups: HGSC-classic group (<25%), HGSC-SET Ⅰ (25%-50%) and HGSC-SET Ⅱ (>50%) group. The clinical and pathological characteristics of three groups of ovarian HGSC patients were compared respectively. (2) According to the growth pattern, that was, the proportion of pushing/expanding invasive tumors in the whole pelvic disseminated tumors of pelvic disseminated tumors, the three groups were divided into four subgroups: group A (0-25%), group B (26%-50%), group C (51%-75%) and group D (>75%). Differences in progression-free survival (PFS) among the four subgroups in each group were compared respectively. Results: The median age of 408 cases with ovarian HGSC was 63.3 years (47-78 years), including 152 cases premenopausal and 256 cases postmenopausal. Among 408 cases of ovarian HGSC, 290 cases were in HGSC-classic group, 91 cases in HGSC-SET Ⅰ and 27 cases in HGSC-SET Ⅱ group. (1) There were significant differences in age, proportion of menopausal patients, tumor necrosis (including map necrosis or acne necrosis), response rate to primary chemotherapy, 5-year mortality rate and PFS between HGSC-SET Ⅰ and HGSC-SET Ⅱ (P<0.05). There was no significant difference among the above indexes between HGSC-SET Ⅰ and HGSC-SET Ⅱ (P>0.05). In HGSC-classic group, HGSC-SET Ⅰ and HGSC-SET Ⅱ, the proportion of family members or patients with history of epithelial ovarian cancer or breast cancer increased in turn, and the detection rate of serous tutal intraepithelial carcinoma (STIC) in fallopian tube tissue decreased in turn. There were significant differences between the two groups (P<0.05). (2) In HGSC-classic group, there were 147 cases in group A, 124 cases in group B and 19 cases in group C (0 case in group D), with median PFS of 17.4, 17.7 and 16.5 months respectively (P<0.05); 10, 6, 29 and 46 cases in group A, B, C and D in HGSC-SET Ⅰ, with median PFS of 9.6, 12.7, 30.1 months and 39.0 months respectively, which there were significant difference among group A and C and D (all P<0.05); among group B, C and D group in HGSC-SET Ⅱ, there were respectively 3, 12 and 12 cases (0 case in group A), and the median PFS was 13.5, 34.2 and 47.8 months (P<0.05). PFS was positively correlated with the increase of push/expansive infiltration ratio. Conclusions: The detection rate of STIC in ovarian HGSC patients with SET is higher, the effect of primary chemotherapy is better, and PFS is prolonged. PFS was significantly prolonged in patients with pelvic disseminated tumors of HGSC-SET, the infiltration of which were predominated by pushing or expanding boarder.

Abstract
Objectives: To investigate the clinical efficacy of magnetic levitation elastic mandibular elevator (MLEME) in treatment of mild obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Methods: Twenty one patients with mild or moderate OSA confirmed by polysomnographic (PSG) examination were recruited from the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University between June of 2016 and June of 2017. Their PSG parameters, daytime Epworth sleepiness score (ESS) were compared before and on treatment of MLEME. In addition, any side effects and discomfort were observed during MLEME treatment. Results: Comparison of parameters during and before MLEME treatment revealed a significant decrease (all P<0.05) in apnea hypopnea index [(9.3±6.2) vs (15.6±7.8)/h], arousal index [(6.2±3.4) vs (10.3±5.4)/h], percentage of sleep time with less than 90% oxygen saturation (3.9%±2.7% vs 9.8%±3.5%), daytime ESS (6.3±2.3 vs 11.2±2.8); but a remarkable increase (all P<0.05) in mean and minimal pulse oxygen saturation (97.2%±0.9% vs 94.7%±1.1% and 87.6%±2.8% vs 81.7%±4.6% respectively). All patients could tolerate MLEME treatment well with no complain of discomfort. Following wearing of MLEME, X-ray lateral film of head and neck revealed a significantly longer distance than that before MLEME treatment from tip of uvula to posterior pharyngeal wall [(11.9±1.8) vs (9.6±1.5) mm](P<0.05). Conclusions: MLEME could significantly improve sleep respiratory parameters and daytime sleepiness of OSA without side effects. Its long-term efficacy for OSA remains to be further explored.

Abstract
Summary To analyze the clinical features of IgG4-related diseases mainly with otologic manifestations and investigate diagnosis and treatment of IgG4-related diseases. We report the clinical course and diagnosis and treatment process of a case of IgG4-related disease misdiagnosed as chronic suppurative otitis media. After looking through relevant literatures, we review 22 cases of IgG4-related diseases mainly with otologic manifestations, and summarize their epidemiological characteristics, clinical manifestations, histopathologic features, radiologic features, and diagnostic and therapeutic criteria. IgG4-related diseases mainly with otologic manifestations are usually clinically characterized by atypical symptoms such as otalgia, tinnitus, aural fullness, otorrhea and progressive or fluctuating hearing loss, together with nausea, vomiting, and dizziness. The three central histopathologic features are dense lymphoplasmacytic infiltration, storiform fibrosis and obliterative phlebitis. The exact diagnosis of IgG4-related diseases requires a combination of clinical manifestations, serology, histopathology and radiologic results. Glucocorticoids are currently the first-line approach for IgG4-related diseases. Otologic manifestations involved in IgG4-related diseases are poorly specific, which is likely to result in more misdiagnosis and treatment delay. Current golden standard for diagnosing IgG4-related diseases is the identification of characteristic histopathology. In addition, immunohistochemistry can help clinicians diagnose IgG4-related diseases as early as possible. Otologists should strengthen their understanding of otologic manifestations of IgG4-related diseases. Early diagnosis and treatments are the key factors in prognosis.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the risk factors of cervical anastomotic leakage after thoracoscopic-lapacoscopic esophagectomy. Methods: 530 patients with esophageal cancer underwent thoracoscopic-lapacoscopic esophagectomy at the Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from Jan 2011 to Dec 2015. The demographic, surgical and clinical data of patients were retrospectively analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression was used to evaluate risk factors of cervical anastomotic leakage in these patients. Results: A total of 530 patients undergoing thoracoscopic-lapacoscopic esophagectomy were enrolled in this study. There were 421 males and 109 females. The mean age was (59.40±8.08) years old, and 91 patients with cervical anastomotic leakage. Sigle factor analysis revealed that the risk grading by American Society of Aneshesiologists, previous history of chest surgery, respiratory comorbidity, diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide of the lung, operation time, anastomosis, average days of postoperative hospitalization, death within 30 days after surgery, respiratory complications, pleural effusion or empyema, and poor healing of the incision were statistically associated with cervical anastomotic leakage (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that previous history of chest surgery, hepatic insufficiency, manual anastomosis, prolonged postoperative hospitalization, and poor healing of the incision were independent risk factors for cervical anastomotic leakage after thoracoscopic-lapacoscopic esophagectomy (all P<0.05). Conclusions: Previous history of chest surgery, hepatic insufficiency, poor healing of the incision, manual anastomosis and prolonged postoperative hospitalization were significantly associated with cervical anastomotic leakage after thoracoscopic-lapacoscopic esophagectomy. It's important to strengthen perioperative nursing and surgical techniques to prevent anastomotic leakage after thoracoscopic-lapacoscopic esophagectomy.
