Abstract
Objective: To compare the survival outcomes between surveillance and adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with stage Ⅰ ovarian immature teratoma (IMT) underwent fertility-sparing surgery. Methods: Clinical and pathological records of patients with stage Ⅰ ovarian IMT between Jan. 2011 to Feb. 2023 were collected from Peking Union Medical College Hospital, except stage Ⅰa grade 1. The consultation of risks and benefits regarding adjuvant chemotherapy was conducted by gynecologic oncologists. A shared decision about surveillance or chemotherapy was made by physician and patients or their guardians. Patients who finally decided to undergo surveillance were included in the surveillance group (n=40), the others were included in the adjuvant chemotherapy group (n=63). Clinical characteristics, treatment and survival outcomes were analyzed and compared between two groups. Results: A total of 103 patients were included. The median age of initial diagnosis was 20 years old (range: 3-39 years old), and the median follow-up time was 31 months (range: 1-254 months). The age, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage, pathological grade, surgical method, and preoperative and postoperative alpha-fetoprotein levels in the surveillance group and the adjuvant chemotherapy group were similar (all P>0.05). The surgical approach and maximum tumor diameter between two groups were significantly different (all P<0.05). Forty patients of the surveillance group were identified, only one patient with stage Ⅰa grade 2 IMT who underwent cystectomy had malignant recurrence on the same ovary. Another 63 patients received adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery, five patients had malignant recurrence, and two of them died of disease progression after relapsed. There were no significant differences in disease-free survival (DFS;20 vs 36 months) and overall survival (OS; 23 vs 39 months) between the surveillance group and the adjuvant chemotherapy group (follow-up time censored at 72 months; DFS: P=0.325, OS: P=0.278). Conclusions: There are no differences in survival outcomes between patients with stage Ⅰ ovarian IMT underwent adjuvant chemotherapy or not. Active surveillance might be safe and preferable in stage Ⅰ IMT patients underwent complete resection of tumor.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the value of net water uptake (NWU) for predicting early neurological improvement (ENI) after endovascular treatment in patients with acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusion stroke. Methods: A case-control study. A total of 132 patients (80 men, 52 women, median age 68 years) with acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusive stroke receiving endovascular treatment were retrospectively analyzed at Jinling Hospital from October 2014 to September 2019. Patients were divided into two groups based on the occurrence of ENI, which was defined as either an improvement of NIHSS score of ≥4 points, or an NIHSS score of 0 or 1 at 24 hours after endovascular treatment. The rank sum test, Chi square test, and other methods were used to compare differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate independent predictors of postoperative ENI. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis used to assess the capacity of NWU to predict ENI. Results: Of the 132 patients in the study, ENI occurred in 47 and did not occur in 85. In multivariate logistic regression analysis age [odds ratio (OR)=0.940, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.903-0.979, P=0.003], time from stroke onset to puncture (OR=0.995, 95%CI 0.991-0.999, P=0.025), time from puncture to recanalization/end of operation (OR=0.985, 95%CI 0.974-0.996, P=0.007), NWU (OR=0.762, 95%CI 0.620-0.937, P=0.010), and mTICI (OR=1.644, 95%CI 1.043-2.590, P=0.032) were predictive factors for ENI. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that NWU could effectively predict ENI (area under the curve=0.642, 95%CI 0.543-0.741, P=0.007), and prediction accuracy was improved when it was combined with other clinical parameters. Conclusion: NWU is an independent predictor of ENI in patients with acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusive stroke undergoing endovascular treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the effect of postoperative radiotherapy and high-risk pathological factors on the prognosis of early-stage neuroendocrine carcinoma of cervix (NECC). Methods: A single-center retrospective cohort study of early-stage NECC in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2011 to April 2022 were enrolled. The patients were treated with radical hysterectomy±adjuvant treatment. They were divided into postoperative non-radiation group and postoperative radiation group. The possible postoperative recurrence risk factors identified by univariate analysis were assessed using multivariate logistic regression. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), recurrence rate, and mortality rate. Results: (1) Sixty-two cases were included in the study, including 33 cases in postoperative non-radiation group and 29 cases in postoperative radiation group. (2) The median follow-up time was 37 months (ranged 12-116 months), with 23 cases (37%) experienced recurrences. There were 7 cases (11%) pelvic recurrences and 20 cases (32%) distant recurrences, in which including 4 cases (6%) both pelvic and distant recurrences. Compared with postoperative non-radiation group, the postoperative radiation group had a lower pelvic recurrence rate (18% vs 3%; P=0.074) but without statistic difference, a slightly elevated distant recurrence rate (24% vs 41%; P=0.150) and overall recurrence rate (33% vs 41%; P=0.513) without statistically significances. Univariate analysis showed that lymph-vascular space invasion and the depth of cervical stromal invasion≥1/2 were risk factors for postoperative recurrence (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed lymph-vascular space invasion was an independent predictor for postoperative recurrence (OR=23.03, 95%CI: 3.55-149.39, P=0.001). (3) During the follow-up period, 18 cases (29%, 18/62) died with tumor, with 10 cases (30%, 10/33) in postoperative non-radiation group and 8 cases (28%, 8/29) in postoperative radiation group, without significant difference (P=0.814). The postoperative 3-year and 5-year survival rate was 79.2%, 60.8%. The depth of cervical stromal invasion≥1/2 was more common in postoperative radiation group (27% vs 64%; P=0.011), and postoperative radiation in such patients showed an extended trend in PFS (32.3 vs 53.9 months) and OS (39.4 vs 73.4 months) but without statistic differences (P=0.704, P=0.371). Compared with postoperative non-radiation group, the postoperative radiation did not improve PFS (54.5 vs 37.3 months; P=0.860) and OS (56.2 vs 62.4 months; P=0.550) in patients with lymph-vascular space invasion. Conclusions: Postoperative radiation in early-stage NECC patients has a trend to reduce pelvic recurrence but not appear to decrease distant recurrence and overall recurrence, and has not improved mortality. For patients with the depth of cervical stromal invasion≥1/2, postoperative radiation has a trend of prolonging OS and PFS but without statistic difference. Lymph-vascular space invasion is an independent predictor for postoperative recurrence, but postoperative radiation in such patients does not seem to have any survival benefits.

Abstract
PURPOSE Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is considered as both a vital risk factor and a consequence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Low total testosterone (TT) is common in men with T2DM, contributing to increased risks of metabolic diseases. This study aimed to investigate the association between TT levels and the prevalence of NAFLD in men with T2DM. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, 1005 men with T2DM were enrolled in National Metabolic Management Center (MMC) of First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University between January 2017 and August 2021. NAFLD was diagnosed using ultrasound as described by the Chinese Liver Disease Association. Overweight/obesity was defined as body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2 according to WHO BMI classifications. RESULTS Individuals without NAFLD had higher serum TT levels than those with NAFLD. After adjustments for potential confounding factors, the top tertile was significantly associated with lower prevalence of NAFLD compared with the bottom tertile of TT level [odds ratio (OR) 0.303, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.281-0.713; P < 0.001]. The association between TT with NAFLD in individuals with normal weight (OR 0.175, 95% CI 0.098-0.315; P < 0.001) was stronger than in individuals with overweight/obesity (OR 0.509, 95% CI 0.267-0.971; P = 0.040). There was a significant interaction of TT with overweight/obesity (P for interaction = 0.018 for NAFLD). CONCLUSION Higher serum TT was significantly associated with a lower prevalence of NAFLD in men with T2DM. We found that the relationship of TT and NAFLD was stronger in individuals with non-overweight/obesity.

Abstract
To explore the composition and diversity of the intestinal microflora of Leopoldamys edwardsi in Hainan Island. In November 2019, DNA was extracted from fecal samples of 25 adult Leopoldamys edwardsi (14 males and 11 females) in Hainan Island at the Joint Laboratory of tropical infectious diseases of Hainan Medical College and Hong Kong University. Based on the IonS5TMXL sequencing platform, single-end sequencing (Single-End) was used to construct a small fragment library for single-end sequencing. Based on Reads shear filtration and OTUs clustering. The species annotation and abundance analysis of OTUs were carried out by using mothur method and SSUrRNA database, and further conducted α diversity and β diversity analysis. A total of 1481842 high quality sequences, belonging to 14 Phyla, 85 families and 186 Genera, were obtained from 25 intestinal excrement samples of Leopoldamys edwardsi. At the level of phyla classification, the main core biota of the Leopoldamys edwardsi contained Firmicutes (46.04%),Bacteroidetes (25.34%), Proteobacteria (17.09%), Tenericutes (7.38%) and Actinobacteria (1.67%), these five phyla account for 97.52% of all phyla. The ratio of Helicobacter which occupied the largest proportion at the genus level was 12.44%, followed by Lactobacillus (11.39%), Clostridium (6.19%),Mycoplasma (4.23%) and Flavonifractor (3.52%). High throughput sequencing analysis showed that the intestinal flora of Leopoldamys edwardsi in Hainan Island was complex and diverse, which had the significance of further research.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the oncologic and reproductive outcomes of fertility-sparing treatments (FSTs) in atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) and endometrial cancer (EC) patients with excess weight (EW). Methods This retrospective study comprised patients with AEH or EC who achieved a complete response (CR) after FST from 2010 to 2018. The clinical characteristics, oncological and reproductive outcomes were compared between the excess weight (EW) group (body mass index (BMI)≥25 kg/m2) and normal weight (NW) group (BMI<25 kg/m2). The risk factors associated with recurrence and unsuccessful pregnancy in patients with EW were analyzed. Results Overall, 227 patients were enrolled, including 139 (61.2%) in EW group and 88 (38.8%) in NW group. In patients with EW, the pregnancy rate, the live birth rate and the relapse rate were 29.8%, 23.4%, and 30.9%, respectively. In patients with NW, these rates were 61.1%, 47.2%, and 31.8%, respectively. No significant differences were observed in the time to remission (P=0.865) and disease-free survival (DFS) (P=0.750). Patients in NW group achieved a better pregnancy rate than patients in the EW group (P=0.034). The patients with EW using ovulation induction to increase fertility tended to have a shorter time to pregnancy (P=0.042). However, no significant risk factors associated with unsuccessful pregnancy were identified after the multivariate analysis. In terms of DFS, the combination of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) and LNG-IUD was better for patients with EW than GnRH-a or oral progestin therapy alone (P=0.044, adjusted hazard ratio (HR)=0.432, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.152-1.229), especially for patients with EW diagnosed with EC (P=0.032). Conclusion FSTs for overweight and obese patients should be more individualized. GnRH-a and/or LNG-IUD may be options prior to FSTs in patients with EW. Further prospective studies are needed.

Abstract
The tertiary lymphoid structure (TLS), also referred to as the ectopic lymphoid structure, has recently become a focus of attention. The TLS consists of T-cell and B-cell-rich regions, as well as plasma cells, follicular helper T cells, follicular dendritic cells (FDCs), germinal centers (GCs) and high endothelial venules. TLSs can be divided into different subtypes and mature stages according to the density of FDCs and GCs. The TLS serves as an effective site in which an antitumor inflammatory response is generated through infiltrating immune cells. B-cell-related pathways, known as the CXC chemokine ligand 13/CXC chemokine receptor type 5 axis and the CC chemokine ligand (CCL)19/CCL21/CC-chemokine receptor 7 axis, play a key role in the generation and formation of TLSs. The aim of the present review was to systematically summarize updated research progress on the formation, subtypes, evaluation and B-cell-related pathways of TLSs. Furthermore, researchers have previously reported that TLSs are present in several types of solid cancers and that they are associated with survival outcomes. Therefore, studies on TLS in breast, lung, colorectal and ovarian cancers and melanoma were summarized and compared. The TLS and B-cell-related pathways require further investigation as important immune signals and promising new immunotherapy targets in the era of T-cell therapy revolution.

Abstract
Objective This study assessed the predictive value of preoperative computed tomography (CT) scans and clinical factors for optimal debulking surgery (ODS) in patients with advanced ovarian cancer (AOC). Methods Patients with AOC in International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage III-IV who underwent primary debulking surgery (PDS) between 2016 and 2019 from nine tertiary Chinese hospitals were included. Large-volume ascites, diffuse peritoneal thickening, omental cake, retroperitoneal lymph node enlargement (RLNE) below and above the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA), and suspected pelvic bowel, abdominal bowel, liver surface, liver parenchyma and portal, spleen, diaphragm and pleural lesions were evaluated on CT. Preoperative factors included age, platelet count, and albumin and CA125 levels. Results Overall, 296 patients were included, and 250 (84.5%) underwent ODS. The prediction model included age >60 years (P=0.016; prediction index value, PIV=1), a CA125 level >800 U/ml (P=0.033, PIV=1), abdominal bowel metastasis (P=0.034, PIV=1), spleen metastasis (P<0.001, PIV=2), diaphragmatic metastasis (P=0.014, PIV=2), and an RLNE above the IMA (P<0.001, PIV=2). This model had superior discrimination (AUC=0.788>0.750), and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test indicated its stable calibration (P=0.600>0.050). With the aim of maximizing the accuracy of prediction and minimizing the rate of inappropriate explorations, a total PIV ≥5 achieved the highest accuracy of 85.47% and identified patients who underwent suboptimal PDS with a specificity of 100%. Conclusions We developed a prediction model based on two preoperative clinical factors and four radiological criteria to predict unsatisfactory debulking surgery in patients with AOC. The accuracy of this prediction model needs to be validated and adjusted in further multicenter prospective studies.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of abdominal radical hysterectomy (ARH) and laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH) in managing early-stage cervical cancer. Methods This retrospective study comprised patients with FIGO stage IA1 with lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI), IA2, and IB1 cervical cancer who underwent radical hysterectomy performed by a single gynecologic oncology team at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 2000–2018. The clinicopathological characteristics, surgical outcomes, and survival outcomes were compared between the two groups. Results The ARH and LRH groups consisted of 84 and 172 patients, respectively. The 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 89.3 and 95.9% in the ARH and LRH groups (P = 0.122, adjusted HR = 0.449, 95% CI: 0.162–1.239), respectively, while the 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 95.2 and 98.8%, respectively (P = 0.578, adjusted HR = 0.650, 95% CI: 0.143–2.961). The presence of more than two comorbidities led to poor OS (P = 0.011). For patients with a BMI greater than 24 kg/m2, LRH was associated with better PFS (P = 0.039). Compared with ARH, LRH was associated with a shorter operation time (248.8 vs. 176.9 min, P < 0.001), less blood loss (670.2 vs. 200.9 ml, P < 0.001), and lower postoperative ileus rates (2.4% vs. 0%, P = 0.042). No significant differences were observed in PFS and OS between 2006–2012, 2013–2015, and 2016–2018 in the LRH group (P = 0.126 and P = 0.583). Conclusion Compared with ARH, LRH yields similar survival and improved surgical outcomes in patients with early-stage cervical cancer. LRH is not inferior to ARH for select cervical cancer patients treated by a single team with adequate laparoscopy experience.

Abstract
Objective The purpose of this study is to provide key information on the clinical characteristics, surgical treatment, and potential prognostic factors in patients with metastatic spinal gynecologic cancer (MSGC), with a view to their application in clinical practice. Methods From January 2010 to January 2020, we performed a retrospective analysis of 14 patients with MSGC who underwent surgical treatment in a single center. Surgical treatment was performed on 14 patients, and a total of 14 operations were performed. The survival time of patients after spinal surgery was analyzed by Kaplan–Meier and Cox regression analysis. Results The average age of patients was 51.9 years (range 25‒70). The average time from initial surgery to the discovery of spinal metastasis was 60.3 months (2‒180), and the average follow-up time was 19.2 months (2‒55). Spinal tumor progression was found in 9 patients, and 12 patients (85.7%) died during follow-up. In univariate analysis, extraosseous visceral metastasis (p = 0.024), revised Tokuhashi stage (p = 0.025), Tomita stage (p = 0.005), and number of spinal lesions (p = 0.038) were associated with overall survival (OS). Extraosseous visceral metastasis (p = 0.026), revised Tokuhashi stage (p = 0.014), Tomita stage (p = 0.001), and gynecological cancer type (p = 0.039) were associated with progression-free survival. Conclusion Surgical treatment is an effective treatment for MSGC and relieves pain, restores function and rebuilds stability. Based on our single-center experience, extraosseous visceral metastasis, revised Tokuhashi stage, Tomita stage, and gynecological cancer type may be potential prognostic factors for OS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the factors associated with progress-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with high-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (HG-ESS). PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 40 patients were enrolled in this study at the Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Beijing, China, from 2006 to 2016. The study retrospectively analyzed clinical and pathological data, and associations of these variables with PFS and OS were evaluated. RESULTS The age of the patients at the time of diagnosis ranged from 16 to 73 years. Abnormal vaginal bleeding was the most commonly observed symptom. The tumor size ranged from 2 to 19 cm. The tumor locations were as follows: vulva (1 case), ovary (2 cases), broad ligament (2 cases), cervix (7 cases), and uterus (28 cases). A total of 34 (85%) and 6 (15%) patients underwent complete and ovarian preservation surgery, respectively. Notably, 33 (82.5%), 13 (32.5%), and 5 (12.5%) patients received adjuvant chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and hormone treatment, respectively. Lymph node dissection was performed in 15 (37.5%) patients (positive rate: 7.4%), 16 (40%) patients underwent omentectomy (positive rate: 10%), and 12 (30%) patients underwent peritoneal lavage cytology (positive rate: 0%). Eighteen (45%) patients had lymphovascular space invasion, 13 (32.5%) patients had uterine fibroids, and 11 (27.5%) patients were diagnosed with endometriosis. Moreover, the levels of CA125 in the serum were measured prior to and following treatment. The median PFS and OS were 9 and 24 months, respectively. Eventually, 29 (72.5%) patients experienced relapse and 19 (47.5%) patients expired due to the disease. CONCLUSION Patients with advanced HG-ESS (stage II-IV) were associated with poor prognosis. The minimum value of CA125 and endometriosis were independent risk factors for PFS. The stage of disease, size of the tumor, minimum and average values of CA125, menopause, history of uterine leiomyoma, and endometriosis were independent risk factors for OS. The combination of surgery with radiotherapy and chemotherapy may improve the PFS of patients in the early stage of the disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to performed a meta-analysis and systematic review on the role of neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery (NACT-IDS) in advanced ovarian cancer (AOC) patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS We searched PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library for relevant articles. All statistical analyses were performed in Review Manager 5.3.5. RESULTS In two randomized controlled trials (RCTs), there was no significant difference in overall survival (OS) (HR = 0.93, 95% CI: 0.81-1.06) or progression-free survival (PFS) (HR = 0.97, 95% CI: 0.86-1.09). Few adverse events (HR = 0.37, 95% CI: 0.19-0.72) and a high optimal debulking surgery rate (HR = 1.69, 95% CI: 1.50-1.91) were observed with NACT. In 22 observational studies, primary debulking surgery (PDS) yielded better OS (HR = 1.38, 95% CI: 1.19-1.60) but not progression-free survival (PFS) (HR = 1.03, 95% CI: 0.86-1.23). An increased optimal cytoreduction rate (HR = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.12-1.22) was observed with NACT. Irrespective of the degree of residual disease, OS was longer in the PDS group than that in the NACT group. Patients with FIGO stage III (HR = 1.43, 95% CI: 1.05-1.95) and IV (HR = 1.14, 95% CI: 1.06-1.23) disease had better survival with PDS. CONCLUSIONS Treatment with NACT-IDS improves perioperative outcomes and optimal cytoreduction rates, but it may not improve OS. NACT-IDS is not inferior to PDS-CT in terms of survival outcomes in selected AOC patients. Future studies should focus on candidate selection for NACT.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the incidence, risk factors, management and prognosis of hypersensitivity reaction (HSR) of platinum-based chemotherapy in patients of ovarian cancer and cervical cancer. Methods: Cases from Peking Union Medical College Hospital from Jan. 2013 to Jan. 2016 were checked for patients' data of epithelial ovarian cancer treated with carboplatin/paclitaxel (every 3 weeks) and patients of cervical cancer treated with concurrent radiochemotherapy using cisplatin (every week). General characters, pathological features, treatment and prognosis of patients were analyzed to determine the severity, symptoms, outcomes and risk factors of HSR. Results: (1) Prevalence of HSR: there were 860 cases of ovarian cancer and 580 cases of cervical cancer, among which HSR occurred in 8.8% (76/860) and 5.9% (34/580) patients, respectively. (2) Grading for HSR: most HSR were grade 1 or 2, with 78.9%(60/76) in ovarian cancer and 82.4%(28/34) in cervical cancer patients. In ovarian cancer patients, there were 7 cases of grade 1 HSR and 53 cases of grade 2 HSR, and in cervical cancer patients, there were 11 cases of grade 1 HSR and 17 cases of grade 2 HSR. (3) Symptoms of HSR: most of HSR happened during intravenous infusion of platinum agents, with 98.7% (75/76) in ovarian cancer and 97.1% (33/34) in cervical cancer patients. In ovarian and cervical cancer patients, most common symptom were tight chest and dyspnea, which happened in 92.1% (70/76) and 97.1% (33/34) patients, respectively. Secondary common symptom were skin reactions, which happened in 53.9% (41/76) and 88.2% (30/34) patients respectively. (4) Treatment after HSR: of 76 ovarian cancer cases with HSR, there were no significant difference in the ratio of HSR recurrence among patients of different treatment after HSR (χ2=0.517, P=0.915): 1 of 4 patients applying prior chemotherapy, 4 of 13 cases receiving desensitization, 3 of 11 cases separating medicine, 2 of 11 patients switching to cisplatin. In 34 cervical cancer cases of HSR, there were also no significant difference in the ratio of HSR recurrence among patients of different treatment after HSR (χ2=0.079, P=1.000): 2 of 9 patients applying prior chemotherapy, 3 of 17 cases receiving desensitization. (5) Risk factors of HSR and patients prognosis: in ovarian cancer patients of HSR, risk factors included relapse (P=0.010), courses of chemotherapy reaching seven or nine for patients of primary treatment or reaching six or seven for recurrent patients (all P<0.05). There were no significant risk factors for cervical cancer patients of HSR (all P>0.05). HSR had no impact on the progression- free survival for ovarian cancer (P=0.144) or cervical cancer (P=0.782). Conclusions: In ovarian cancer patients treated with carboplatin and cervical cancer patients treated with concurrent radiochemotherapy using cisplatin, most HSR of platinum are mild and favorable outcomes. Relapse and longer chemotherapy courses are risk factors for HSR of carboplatin for epithelial ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the leading cause of death among gynecological malignancies and is rarely cured in the recurrent setting, mainly because of progressive chemoresistance, especially platinum resistance. In our previous studies, the platinum-resistance-related protein, annexin A3, was selected by comparative proteomics. In this study, we detected serum annexin A3 levels using a self-developed chemiluminescence immunoassay kit in a prospective EOC patient cohort. We also evaluated the capacity of serum annexin A3 levels to predict platinum resistance. Serum annexin A3 levels in healthy women exhibited a similar normal distribution (Z=0.723, P=0.673), allowing determination of a normal cutoff level of 0.11-1.45 ng/mL. Of the 89 EOC patients, 21 were platinum resistant and 68 were platinum sensitive. Residual disease after primary surgery (p=0.004) and serum annexin A3 levels (p=0.036) were both independent factors associated with platinum resistance. The AUC was 0.733 (95% confidence interval (CI), 0.627-0.823). The optimal cutoff value for serum annexin A3 levels was 2.05 ng/mL. Multivariate logistic analysis showed that expression of annexin A3 as assessed by immunohistochemistry (P=0.005) and residual tumor size (P=0.000) had a significant influence on platinum resistance. The AUC of ROC curve of annexin A3 expression by immunohistochemistry was 0.664 (95% CI, 0.554-0.763) and the cut off value was “>=moderate scores”. In conclusion, we demonstrate that annexin A3 is a secreted protein that may be measured in the peripheral blood using a self-developed, chemiluminescence immunoassay kit. Serum annexin A3 levels may be a potential predictor of platinum resistance in epithelial ovarian cancer patients.

Abstract
Low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) is a kind of uterine malignancy. Total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was the main treatment. We evaluate the feasibility of fertility-sparing management in five patients with low-grade ESS who desired for childbearing. The patients aged 28-36 years old presented with symptoms of menometrorrhagia or without symptom. Ultrasound examinations demonstrated leiomyomas (with the diameter of 3.5-6 cm respectively). All the patients received conservative surgeries of local resection of the mass with uterine reconstruction. Then the adjuvant endocrine therapy was given to them with megestrol acetate (160-320 mg/day) or triptorelin (3.75 mg/28 days) for 5-6 months. The follow-up lasted 21-55 months. All the patients survived. Three of them underwent an uncomplicated pregnancy, and received cesarean delivery of a liveborn neonate. One of them is alive without disease recurrence. The other one found disease recurred during the megestrol acetate treatment, and received hysterectomy. We consider that fertility-sparing treatment is suitable in selected in young low-grade ESS patients especially for those whose lesion was with a clear borderline. Adjuvant endocrine therapy is recommended for about 6 months after operation.

Abstract
Sonic hedgehog (Shh) functions as a conserved morphogen in the development of various organs in metazoans ranging from Drosophila to humans. Here, we have investigated the potential roles and underlying mechanisms of Shh signaling in murine placentation. Immunostaining revealed the abundant expression of the main components of Shh pathway in both the trophectoderm of blastocysts and developing placentas. Disruption of Shh led to impaired vascularogenesis of yolk sac, less branching and malformation of placental labyrinth, thereby leading to a robust decrease in capacity of transplacental passages. Moreover, placenta-specific gene incorporation by lentiviral transduction of mouse blastocysts and blastocyst transplantation robustly knocked down the expression of Gli3 and Gli2 in placenta but not in embryos. Finally, Gli3 knockdown in Shh−/− placentas partially rescued the defects of both yolk sac and placental labyrinth, and robustly restored the capacity of transplacental passages. Gli2 knockdown in Shh+/− placentas affected neither the capacity of tranplacental passages nor the vascularogenesis of yolk sac, however, it partially phenocopied the labyrinthine defects of Shh−/− placentas. Taken together, these results uncover that both Shh/Gli2 and Shh/Gli3 signals are required for proper development of murine placentas and are possibly essential for pregnant maintenance.

Abstract
The objective of this retrospective study was to analyze the clinical characteristics and prognosis of clear cell adenocarcinoma (CCA) in the post-diethylstilbestrol (DES) era and to evaluate the feasibility of fertility-preserving treatment. The records of 32 patients with CCAs who were treated at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from August 1986 to June 2012 were retrospectively reviewed. Three of the patients had undergone fertility-preserving treatment. The incidence of CCA among cervical adenocarcinomas was 15.2%. The median age was 38 years: 11 patients (34.4%) were diagnosed before 30 years of age and two (6.3%) after 70 years of age. Ten patients (31.2%) were nulliparous. No patient had been exposed to DES. Twenty-nine patients (90.6%) presented with obvious symptoms, and the cervix appeared abnormal in 26 patients (81.3%). Cervical Papanicolaou (Pap) tests were abnormal in all four patients in whom they were performed (three had high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions and one had atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance). The distribution by stage was 56.3% stage I, 34.4% stage II, 6.3% stage III, and 3.1% stage IV. Treatments mainly included surgery for patients with stage I to IIA CCA and radiochemotherapy for patients with advanced CCA. The overall 5-year progression-free survival was 72.2%. Patients with stage I to IIA CCA had better 5-year progression-free survival than did patients with stage IIB to IV CCA (81.5% versus 40.0%, P=0.003). The three patients who had undergone fertility-preserving treatment had no recurrences. CCA may also affect adolescents and children without prior DES exposure, who are often misdiagnosed as having functional uterine bleeding. Radiotherapy appears to be effective for local control but to have no effect on distant recurrences. In our study, the prognosis of patients with early-stage CCA, including those who had undergone fertility-preserving treatment, was not inferior to that of patients with other types of cervical adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To characterize hypersensitivity reactions to chemotherapy with carboplatin in patients with gynecologic malignancies and serve use of carboplatin. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the clinical features, management, or outcome of carboplatin-related hypersensitivity reactions in 13 patients with gynecologic malignancies from 1983 to 2008. RESULTS Twenty times hypersensitivity reactions happened in thirteen women with carboplatin hypersensitivity reactions. The earliest one was at the 5th cycle, the last one was at the 28th cycle; the average cycle was 11.6. The accumulative dosage of carboplatin was 1 900 - 11 400 mg. The average dose was 4840 mg, 2500 - 7200 mg were the main dose range. More than 5 cycles and (or) more than 2500 - 7200 mg of carboplatin administration significantly increased the incidence of hypersensitivity reactions in the twelve patients. Reactions were generally occurred at the first 5 - 10 minutes during intravenous infusion. The average time was 7.6 minutes. Symptoms included mild-to-moderate reactions and severe reactions. Thirteen patients experienced carboplatin hypersensitivity. Two out of 13 cases exhibited severe hypersensitivity reaction at the first time. The first hypersensitivity reactions was mild-to-moderate in 11 cases. When retreated with carboplatin, 4 exhibited no more reactions, 5 exhibited mild-to-moderate hypersensitiviry reactions, 2 exhibited severe reactions. Mild-to-moderate reactions were resolved by temporary interruption of carboplatin infusion, and (or) using steroid, while severe hypersensitivity reactions were resolved by more medicines. CONCLUSIONS The hypersensitivity reactions in the patients receiving carboplatin are increased after multiple doses of the agent. The possible of retreat with the carboplatin for the mild-to-moderate reactions may be considered. Hypersensitivity reactions should be treated actively. The following chemotherapy should be planed individually. The primary chemotherapy protocol for the patients with severe hypersensitivity reactions should not be reconsidered.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the triage value of high risk human papilloma virus (hrHPV) detection in the women with abnormal cervical cytology. METHODS 28,650 women underwent thinprep cell test (TCT) to screen cervical cancer. 694 of the 2433 patients with abnormal cervical cytology were randomly selected to undergo hrHPV HC II test to detect high risk HPV. 275 of these 694 patients received colposcopy and biopsy, 71, 149, and 55 of which were diagnosed as with atypical squamous cell (ASC), low squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL), and high squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) respectively. The triage value of hrHPV detection was analyzed. RESULTS Among the 694 patients, the incidence rates of hrHPV infection of those with ASC, LSIL, and HSIL were 68.4% (252/368), 87.6% (219/250), and 93.4% (71/76) respectively. Among the 275 cases who received colposcopy and biopsy the percentages of histopathologic lesion CIN2 in those with ASC, LSIL, and HSIL were 22.5%, 30.2%, and 70.9% respectively. When with CIN2 + as terminal, the sensitivity and specificity of hrHPV test were 93.8% and 23.6% in the ASC group; 93.1% and 10.6% in the LSIL group, and 97.4% and 25.0% in the HSIL group. Histopathologic lesions CIN3 or worse were seen in 7.0% of the patients with ASC, 12.2% of the patients with LSIL, and 36.4% of the patients with HSIL. When with CIN3 + as the terminal the sensitivity and specificity of hrHPV test were 100% and 21.2% in the ASC group; 100% and 10.7% in the LSIL group; and 95.0% and 11.4% in the HSIL group. CONCLUSION hrHPV infection is associated with preinvasive cervical cancer and invasive cervical cancer. hrHPV test is a good triage approach for the patients with ASC, able to decrease about 50% of colposcopic referral. For the patients with LSIL and HSIL, hrHPV test is not an appreciate triage test and immediate colposcopy is recommended.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN). METHODS A retrospective study was made of 6 patients with VAIN, who were hospitalized at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 1980 to 2006. RESULTS Five cases had a history of hysterectomy, two of whom were because of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) or invasive cervical cancer. Four cases had the infection of high-risk oncogenic human papillomaviruses detected with hybrid capture II (HC-II), the other two had no record. In all patients the VAIN lesions were within the upper one third of the vagina. They were all diagnosed by colposcopic examination and directed biopsy after the abnormal cytology by thinprep cytology test (TCT). Six cases of VAIN II-III were treated by excisional surgery. One case had residual lesion and had another surgery 3 months after the first one. Two patients obtained remission at one-year follow-up, three had abnormal cytology by TCT 6 months after surgery, and one had abnormal cytology by TCT at six-month follow-up but normal at one-year follow-up. CONCLUSIONS A history of CIN is the main risk factor for VAIN, so routine vaginal cytology is needed for the patients after hysterectomy due to CIN. Cytology, colposcopic examination and directed biopsy are the mainstays of VAIN diagnosis. Excisional surgery is recommended for the patients with VAIN II-III. Long term follow-up is necessary after treatment.

Abstract
Drug resistance is one of the major obstacles to chemotherapy of ovarian cancer. Studies with cell lines can serve as an initial screen for agents that might modulate drug resistance. To establish more appropriate models of drug resistance and explore whether the differences exist in the different drug resistant sublines selected by different treatments, we induced SKOV3 cell line using cisplatin (CDDP) and Taxol over a period of 16 months by the pulse (SKOV3/CDDP-P and SKOV3/Taxol-P) and intermittent incremental (SKOV3/CDDP-80 and SKOV3/Taxol-25) method, respectively. The resistant phenotype of the four resistant sublines, SKOV3/CDDP-P, SKOV3/CDDP-80, SKOV3/Taxol-P and SKOV3/Taxol-25, was very stable and the resistance index was 4.12, 11.50, 261.98 and 622.76, respectively. In cell morphology, the cells from pulse treatment had remarkable changes compared with the cells from intermittent incremental treatment. SKOV3/CDDP-80 and SKOV3/Taxol-P grew more slowly than SKOV3/CDDP-P and SKOV3/Taxol-25. Multidrug resistance gene 1, multidrug resistance protein 1, lung resistance protein and glutathione S-transferase pi mRNA expression of SKOV3/CDDP-P and SKOV3/Taxol-25 had greater changes than that of SKOV3/CDDP-80 and SKOV3/Taxol-P. The results suggest there are great differences between the resistant cell lines resulting from pulse and intermittent incremental method. The resistant cells selected by the intermittent method were more resistant than the cells selected by the pulse method. The two resistant sublines selected by the pulse method may serve as appropriate models for the study of mechanisms of drug resistance in ovarian cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the follow-up results of patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia III (CIN III) after surgical treatment. METHODS A retrospective analysis of consecutive patients with CIN III after surgical treatment between Jan 1st, 1999 and Jun 30th, 2004 was performed. The follow-ups of the patients after surgical treatment were assessed. RESULTS In the follow-up of patients with CIN III after surgical treatment, the rate of abnormal cytology was 9.3%. The rate of follow-up was higher in patients with cervical conization than in patients with initial hysterectomy and in patients of the oncological group than of the non-oncological group. The rate of follow-up was lower in patients over 40 years old. There was no difference in the residential areas of the patients. CONCLUSIONS Cytological follow-up of patients with CIN III after operation is varied. The rate of follow-up is lower in patients over 40 years old, in patients having initial hysterectomy and in patients of the non-oncological group. The rate of follow-up is associated with the knowledge about CIN of both surgeons and patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the differences of clinical characteristics between patients with extraovarian peritoneal serous papillary carcinoma (EPSPC) and those with papillary serous ovarian carcinoma (PSOC). METHODS Fourteen patients with EPSPC and 50 patients with PSOC who were admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 1984 to 2002 were retrospectively analyzed, and their clinical features, chemosensitivities and survival rate were compared. RESULTS Patients with EPSPC were significantly older than those with PSOC (mean age 62.7 years versus 53.6 years, P < 0.01). The chemo-resistant rate (83%) in EPSPC was significantly higher than that (38%) of the PSOC (P < 0.05). The 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates (72%, 10%, 0%) in the EPSPC were significantly lower than those (95%, 79%, 62%) of the PSOC (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION EPSPC are likely to occur in older women, have higher chemo-resistance and poorer prognosis compared with PSOC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE Recurrent ovarian cancer is associated with a poor prognosis, and optimal management for this problem is not well defined. The purpose of the study was to evaluate treatment opportunity for patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. METHODS Fifty-four cases of recurrent ovarian cancer during 1990 to 2000 were randomly selected to compare the effect of treatment opportunity on the outcome. All the clinical data related to the recurrent ovarian cancer were collected. The difference in survival was calculated by the Cox model. RESULTS The multivariate analysis showed that the platinum-free-interval >6 months and the surgery followed salvage chemotherapy were associated with a significant prolongation of survival for the patients with recurrent ovarian cancer(P< 0.05). The odds ratio was 0.389 for the patients whose platinum-free-interval was more than 6 months as compared to that of the platinum-free-interval < 6 months. The OR was 4.194 for the patients who were only with salvage chemotherapy as compared to that with surgery followed salvage chemotherapy. The numbers of chemotherapy cycles may offer some effect on the survival (P=0.07). The odds ratio(OR) was 0.346 for the patients whose chemotherapy cycles were more than 10 as compared to that of chemotherapy cycles < 6. The timing of the beginning of the retreatment and chemotherapy regiments were failed to demonstrate an improvement in survival(P >0.05). CONCLUSION The treatment opportunity for patients with recurrent ovarian cancer is depend on the platinum-free-interval of the patients. A strategy of secondary surgical cytoreduction followed salvage chemotherapy is suggested for the patients whose platinum-free-interval >6 months. The goal of the treatment for platinum-resistant patients is to improve the quality of life.

Abstract
In order to reach the purpose of co-transferring double drug resistance genes into human CD34(+) progenitor cells to broaden the spectrum of drug resistance, the expression efficiency of human multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) gene mediated by the internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) was investigated. Two retroviral vectors were transferred into packaging cells. One is pSF-DIM containing double drug resistance genes, in which the translation of MDR1 gene was controlled under an IRES from encephalomyocarditis virus. The other is pSF-MDR1 which only contains MDR1 gene controlled under the same promoter of pSF-DIM. The amphotropic retroviral packaging cells PA317/pSF-DIM and PA317/pSF-MDR1 were obtained with titer of 8 x 10(4) and 1.3 x 10(5) cfu/ml respectively. Human cord blood CD34(+) cells were transduced by supernatant infection. Expression of P-gp was detected by flow cytometry. Compared with the untransduced group, the expression of P-gp in pSF-DIM transduced group and pSF-MDR1 transduced group was elevated 10.92% and 28.82% respectively. However, the expression of P-gp in pSF-MDR1 transduced group was higher than that in pSF-DIM transduced group. The result suggests that MDR1 gene can express in the human progenitor cells under control of IRES. It laid the foundation of subsequence research. The reason on the difference in MDR1 gene expression efficiency between pSF-MDR1 transduced group and pSF-DIM transduced group need further research.

Abstract
Diagnosis of glycogen storage disease (GSD) type 1a currently is established by demonstrating the lack of glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) activity in the patient's biopsied liver specimen. Recent cloning of the G6Pase gene and identification of mutations within the gene that causes GSD type 1a allow for the development of a DNA-based diagnostic method. Using SSCP analysis and DNA sequencing, we characterized the G6Pase gene of 70 unrelated patients with enzymatically confirmed diagnosis of GSD type 1a and detected mutations in all except 17 alleles (88%). Sixteen mutations were uncovered that were shown by expression to abolish or greatly reduce G6Pase activity and that therefore are responsible for the GSD type 1a disorder. R83C and Q347X are the most prevalent mutations found in Caucasians, 130X and R83C are most prevalent in Hispanics, and R83H is most prevalent in Chinese. The Q347X mutation has thus far been identified only in Caucasian patients, and the 130X mutation has been identified only in Hispanic patients. Our results demonstrate that the DNA-based analysis can accurately, rapidly, and noninvasively detect the majority of mutations in GSD type 1a. This DNA-based diagnosis now permits prenatal diagnosis among at-risk patients and serves as a database in screening and counseling patients clinically suspected of having this disease.

Abstract
We report the isolation of a panel of CD4+ T helper type 1 autoreactive T cell clones from the spleen of unprimed nonobese diabetic mice, a murine model of human insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. The T cell clones express a diverse repertoire of T cell receptors, three of which recognize beta islet cell autoantigen(s). The islet cell-reactive T cell clones inhibit adoptive transfer of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and intraislet lymphocytic infiltration. The protective capacity of the T cell clones correlates with their ability to produce a novel immunoregulatory activity that potently inhibits in vitro allogeneic mixed lymphocyte reaction. The partially purified activity significantly inhibited the adoptive transfer of diabetes. Our work provides evidence in support of the existence of T helper type 1, CD4+ T cells reactive to beta islet cell autoantigens that have acquired a protective instead of a diabetogenic effector function. These T cells mediate their protective action in part by production of an immunoregulatory activity capable of down-regulating immune responses, and they are likely to represent a population of regulatory T cells that normally plays a role in maintaining peripheral tolerance.

Abstract
A case-control study, involving 203 cases of pelvic endometriosis and 406 randomly selected and age-matched community controls, was conducted. The results were as following: 1) A decreased risk for endometriosis was found to be related to pregnancy. The relative risk was 0.34 for para 1 and 0.08 for para 2 or more. A similar tendency was also showed in the analysis of gravidity, but this protective effect totally disappeared after adjustment for parity. Therefore, it may be revealed that it is the parity but not the gravidity which protects the women against the endometriosis. 2) There was an increased risk of 15.35 for endometriosis in women with infertility. 3) No relation emerged with age at first pregnancy to the occurrence of endometriosis as indicated in the literature. 4) The frequency of induced abortion was 42.4% in the cases and that was 63.7% in the controls. The association with the risk of the disease adjusted for education, menstruation, parity and contraception was not significant by a attentive stratification the data. 5) Two groups were relatively similar with respect to recorded condom and oral contraceptive use. However, more cases than controls did not use any contraception or only used rhythm method and coitus interruptus, and more controls than cases used an intrauterine device. The results of multivariate analysis did not approve of opinion that IUD is a risk factor of endometriosis. The results did not negate the likelihood of diminished chance of developing endometriosis in women with using oral contraceptives.

Abstract
A case-control study, involving 203 cases of pelvic endometriosis and 406 randomly selected and age-matched community controls, was conducted. The results showed that women characterized by earlier menarche (< or = 12 years) and longer period (> 7 days) were associated with an elevated risk. Longer cycle (> 35 days) seemed to have a protective effect. There are a tendency to increasing risk for endometriosis associated with primary dysmenorrhea and energetic physical activities during menstruation. The results indicate that intensive treatment of primary dysmenorrhea and avoidance of strenuous exercise during menstruation may prevent pelvic endometriosis.

Abstract
The high affinity IgG FcR Fc gamma RI, CD64, plays important roles in the immune response. Fc gamma RI is predominantly expressed on monocytes and macrophages, and barely detectable on neutrophils. rIFN-gamma markedly increases the expression of Fc gamma RI on neutrophils, monocytes, macrophages and myeloid cell lines such as U-937, HL-60, and THP-1. Glucocorticoids inhibit the augmentation of Fc gamma RI expression by rIFN-gamma on neutrophils and myeloid cell lines, but enhance the augmentation of Fc gamma RI expression by rIFN-gamma on monocytes. In this study, we examined the effect of rIFN-gamma and dexamethasone (Dex) on the steady state level of Fc gamma RI mRNA in U-937 cells, neutrophils, and monocytes by hybridizing total RNA with the Fc gamma RI cDNA probe, p135. We found that the amount of Fc gamma RI mRNA increased within 1 h of treatment with rIFN-gamma in all three cell types. This initial induction of Fc gamma RI mRNA by rIFN-gamma was completely blocked by an inhibitor of RNA synthesis, actinomycin D, suggesting that the rIFN-gamma-mediated induction of Fc gamma RI mRNA is dependent on gene transcription. Dex, used in combination with rIFN-gamma, partially blocked the induction of Fc gamma RI mRNA by rIFN-gamma in U-937 cells and neutrophils, but caused a synergistic increase in Fc gamma RI mRNA levels in monocytes. The inhibitory effect of Dex on the steady state level of Fc gamma RI mRNA in U-937 cells was blocked by an inhibitor of protein synthesis, cycloheximide, suggesting that Dex-induced proteins were involved in the regulation of Fc gamma RI expression. This study indicates that the regulation of Fc gamma RI expression on U-937 cells, neutrophils, and monocytes by rIFN-gamma and Dex occurs, at least in part, at the mRNA level. rIFN-gamma increases the steady state level of Fc gamma RI mRNA through a common pathway among U-937 cells, neutrophils, and monocytes, whereas the effect of Dex on rIFN-gamma-induced Fc gamma RI mRNA is cell-type specific.

Abstract
We investigated the influence of glucocorticoids on two effects of interferons (IFNs) which are thought to relate to their antitumor actions: cytotoxic activity and induction of HLA antigen expression. We treated human myeloid cell lines (U-937, HL-60, THP-1, K-562, and KG-1a), and T-(MOLT-4) and B- (Daudi) lymphoblastic cell lines with concentrations of IFN-alpha, IFN-gamma, and dexamethasone (Dex) which are commonly achieved in the circulation following therapeutic administration. The results show that for every cell line except Daudi, the greatest inhibition of cell growth occurred when IFN-gamma and Dex treatments were combined. The advantage of combined IFN-gamma and Dex treatment over treatment with either agent alone was most dramatic for the three cell lines (U-937, HL-60, and THP-1) which have monocytoid characteristics. There was also more growth inhibition by the combination of IFN-alpha and Dex than by either agent alone for all seven cell lines tested. The induction of HLA antigen expression by IFN-alpha and IFN-gamma, an effect which could increase recognition of the tumor cells by the immune system, was as great or greater in the presence of Dex as in its absence. These results demonstrate that glucocorticoids do not inhibit, and in some cases enhance, two effects of IFNs that appear to be related to their antitumor actions: inhibition of tumor cell proliferation and enhancement of HLA antigen expression.
