Abstract
Objective: To assess the efficacy of induction chemotherapy followed by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in the treatment of FLT3-ITD(+) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with normal karyotype. Methods: The clinical data of FLT3-ITD(+) AML patients with normal karyotype in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from Jan 2018 to March 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Results: The study included 49 patients with FLT3-ITD(+)AML, 31 males, and 18 females, with a median age of 46 (16-59) years old. All patients received induction chemotherapy, and 24 patients received sequential allo-HSCT (transplantation group) . The median follow-up time was 465 days, the one-year overall survival (OS) from diagnosis was (70.0 ± 7.4) %, and one-year disease-free survival (DFS) was (70.3±7.4) %. The one-year OS was significantly different between the transplantation group and the non-transplantation group [ (85.2 ± 7.9) % vs (52.6 ± 12.3) %, P=0.049]. but one-year DFS [ (84.7 ± 8.1) % vs (55.2 ± 11.9) %, P=0.061] was not. No significance was found in one-year OS between patients with low-frequency and high-frequency FLT3-ITD(+) (P>0.05) . There were 12 patients with high-frequency FLT3-ITD(+) in the transplantation and the non-transplantation groups, respectively. The one-year OS [ (68.8 ± 15.7) % in the transplantation group vs (26.2 ± 15.3) % in the non-transplantation group, P=0.027] and one-year DFS [ (45.5 ± 21.3) % in the transplantation group vs (27.8±15.8) % in the non-transplantation group, P=0.032] were significantly different between the two groups. Conclusion: Induction chemotherapy followed by allo-HSCT can enhance the prognosis of FLT3-ITD(+) patients, particularly those with FLT3-ITD high-frequency mutation.

Abstract
Lichen myxedematosus (LM) is an idiopathic cutaneous mucinosis disorder, and monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) is a preneoplastic plasma cell disease with a monoclonal increase in globulin. Patients with LM combined with monoclonal gammopathy are normally diagnosed with scleromyxedema. However, we report a case of generalized papules combined with MGUS in a 78-year-old man who was eventually diagnosed with atypical or intermediate forms of LM because it only involved the skin, and the pathological type was not consistent with scleromyxedema. Few cases of atypical or intermediate forms of LM have been reported, so the course of atypical or intermediate forms of LM is unpredictable. We report the diagnosis and treatment of a case of atypical forms of LM to discuss the current understanding of the disease, hoping to provide a reference for clinical research on this disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous lung biopsy is a common protocol in the context of diagnostic thoracic oncology, but entails a risk of complications including systematic air embolism (SAE). While SAE is often well tolerated, it can be difficult to treat and may result in rapid mortality in some cases.
CASE SUMMARY We report a rare case of left atrial SAE in a 71-year-old woman who underwent a CT-guided lung biopsy of a pulmonary nodule in the posterior basal segment of the right lower lobe. Shortly following needle extraction, she experienced a mild cough, hemoptysis, rapid-onset unconsciousness, and cardiopulmonary arrest. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation was immediately performed, but the patient died 40 min after the procedure. A closer review of collected CT scans revealed the presence of a large volume of air within the left atrium.
CONCLUSION Although SAE is generally well tolerated and asymptomatic, interventional radiologists must be aware of the risk of fatal outcomes and establish appropriate emergency management protocols. In this report, the characteristics, mechanisms, and treatment recommendations associated with SAE are discussed in an effort to improve the survival of affected patients.

Abstract
Background: The responses of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) or corticosteroids as the initial treatment on pregnancy with ITP were unsatisfactory. This study aimed to assess the safety and effectiveness of prednisone plus IVIg versus prednisone or IVIg in pregnant patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). Methods: Between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2020, 970 pregnancies diagnosed with ITP at 19 collaborative centers in China were reviewed in this observational study. A total of 513 pregnancies (52.89%) received no intervention. Concerning the remaining pregnancies, 151 (33.04%) pregnancies received an initial treatment of prednisone plus IVIg, 105 (22.98%) pregnancies received IVIg alone, and 172 (37.64%) pregnancies only received prednisone. Results: Regarding the maternal response to the initial treatment, no differences were found among the three treatment groups (41.1% for prednisone plus IVIg, 33.1% for prednisone, and 38.1% for IVIg). However, a significant difference was observed in the time to response between the prednisone plus IVIg group (4.39 ± 2.54 days) and prednisone group (7.29 ± 5.01 days; p < 0.001), and between the IVIg group (6.71 ± 4.85 days) and prednisone group (p < 0.001). The median prednisone duration in the monotherapy group was 27 days (range, 8–195 days), whereas that in the combination group was 14 days (range, 6–85 days). No significant differences were found among these three treatment groups in neonatal outcomes, particularly concerning the neonatal platelet counts. The time to response in the combination treatment group was shorter than prednisone monotherapy. The duration of prednisone application in combination group was shorter than prednisone monotherapy. The combined therapy showed a lower predelivery platelet transfusion rate than IVIg alone. Conclusion: These findings suggest that prednisone plus IVIg may represent a potential combination therapy for pregnant patients with ITP.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the role and mechanism of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) C9ORF139 targeting micro RNA(miR)-24-3P/TAOK1 in regulating the proliferation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. Methods: AML cells HL-60 and THP-1 were purchased from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and divided into 4 groups:group A was negative control group (siNC group), group B was interference C9ORF139 group (siC9ORF139 group), group C was siC9ORF139+miR-24-3p inhibitor group, and group D was miR-24-3P+TAOK1 overexpression group (oe-TAOK1 group). Real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription PCR was used to detect the expression levels of AML cell lines of HL-60 and THP-1 in four groups. Cell Counting Kit-8 assay was performed to measure cell proliferation. Flow cytometry was applied to analyze cell apoptosis. Transwell test was applied to detect cell migration and invasion ability. Western blot was used to detect p-serine/threonine kinase (p-raf) and p-mitogen activation proteinkinase (p-MEK), p-extracellular regulatory protein kinase (p-ERK) expression. The luciferase reporter gene plasmid was constructed to verify the binding ability of C9ORF139,miR-24-3P and TAOK1.Nude mice were inoculated with subcutaneous tumor cells of HL-60 (group A) and HL-60 (group B). Results: After the C9ORF139 gene was knocked down and cultured for 120 h, The cell proliferation ability (0.62±0.02, 0.82±0.02), migration ability (0.22±0.03, 0.05±0.01), invasion ability (0.20±0.02, 0.13±0.03) of group B were all lower than that of group A (1.30±0.02, 1.83±0.07; 0.99±0.02, 0.99±0.02; 1.00±0.01, 1.00±0.01) (all P<0.05). When co-transfected with miR-24-3 inhibitor, cell proliferation ability, migration ability and invasion ability were all higher in group B (all P<0.05). When co-transfected with miR-24-3P and oe-TAOK1 plasmid, cell proliferation ability, migration ability and invasion ability were all higher than group B (all P<0.05).When the C9ORF139 gene in the cells was knocked down, the apoptosis level of group B (28.56±8.07, 17.74±1.91) were higher than those of group A (0.31±0.27, 2.49±0.33)(all P<0.05); when co-transfected with miR-24-3P inhibitor, the apoptosis level (2.34±0.09, 3.06±0.06) were lower than those in group B (all P<0.05); when co-transfected with miR-24-3P and oe-TAOK1 in the plasmid group, the apoptosis level (2.16±1.29, 4.80±0.37) were also lower than those of group B (all P<0.05). In HL-60 and THP-1 cells, when C9ORF139 was not mutated, the luciferase activity of miR-24-3P group was lower than that of the miR-NC group (P<0.05). When the binding site with miR-24-3p in C9ORF139 sequence was mutated, the luciferase activity in miR-24-3p group was equivalent to that in miR-NC group (P>0.05).When TAOK1 was not mutated; the luciferase activity of miR-24-3P group was lower than that of group A (P<0.05). When the binding site with miR-24-3p in TAOK1 sequence was mutated, the luciferase activity in miR-24-3p group was equivalent to that in miR-NC group (P>0.05).When the C9ORF139 gene in HL-60 cells was knocked down and cultured for 72 h, the phosphorylation expression levels of Raf, MEK and ERK molecules in group B were significantly lower than those in group A (all P<0.05). By day 14, the tumor volume in the group A was greater than the tumor cell volume in the group B [(284.49±57.61) vs (125.70±18.64) mm3, P=0.017]. The tumor weight of HL-60 in group A was heavier than that of group B [(847.80±159.36) vs (408.40±113.16) mg, P=0.001]. Conclusions: LncRNA C9ORF139 regulates TAOK1 by sponging miR-24-3P to promote the proliferation, invasion and migration of acute myeloid leukemiacell.In vivo experiments have confirmed that the expression of C9ORF139 can promote the growth of subcutaneous tumors in AML nude mice.

Abstract
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has resulted in a global health emergency. In addition to common respiratory symptoms, some patients with COVID-19 infections may experience a range of extra-pulmonary manifestations, such as digestive system involvement. Patients with COVID-19 have been reported to suffer from acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) that is associated with disease-related severity and mortality. However, in the context of COVID-19, the exact cause of AMI has yet to be clearly defined. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the available data and elucidates the possible underlying mechanisms linking COVID-19 to AMI, in addition to highlighting therapeutic approaches for clinicians. Finally, given the severe global impact of COVID-19, we emphasize the importance of coordinated vaccination programs.

Abstract
Most randomized trials for acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) have investigated highly selected patients under idealized conditions, and the findings need to be validated in the real world. We conducted a population-based study of all APL patients in Zhejiang Province, China, with a total population of 82 million people, to assess the generalization of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and arsenic as front-line treatment. The outcomes of APL patients were also analyzed. Between January 2015 and December 2019, 1,233 eligible patients were included in the final analysis. The rate of ATRA and arsenic as front-line treatment increased steadily from 66.2% in 2015 to 83.3% in 2019, with no difference among the size of the center (≥5 or <5 patients per year, p = 0.12) or age (≥60 or <60 years, p = 0.35). The early death (ED) rate, defined as death within 30 days after diagnosis, was 8.2%, and the 3-year overall survival (OS) was 87.9% in the whole patient population. Age (≥60 years) and white blood cell count (>10 × 109/L) were independent risk factors for ED and OS in the multivariate analysis. This population-based study showed that ATRA and arsenic as front-line treatment are widely used under real-world conditions and yield a low ED rate and a high survival rate, which mimic the results from clinical trials, thereby supporting the wider application of APL guidelines in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare condition that can cause progressive symptoms including dyspnea, cough and respiratory insufficiency. Secondary PAP is generally associated with hematological malignancies including chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of PAP occurring secondary to CMML.
CASE SUMMARY We report the case of a 63-year-old male who presented with a recurrent cough and gradually progressive dyspnea in the absence of fever. Based upon clinical symptoms, computed tomography findings, bone marrow aspiration, flow cytometry studies and cytogenetic analyses, the patient was diagnosed with PAP secondary to CMML. He underwent whole lung lavage in March 2016 to alleviate his dyspnea, after which he began combined chemotherapeutic treatment with decitabine and cytarabine. The patient died in January 2020 as a consequence of severe pulmonary infection.
CONCLUSION This case offers insight regarding the mechanistic basis for PAP secondary to CMML and highlights potential risk factors.

Abstract
Management of acute myeloid leukemia during pregnancy (P-AML) is a challenging endeavor with limited evidence-based information available. To truly achieve the goal of improving P-AML patients, additional evidence-based research is necessary. We retrospectively reviewed cases of 17 patients diagnosed with P-AML, including seven for acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) from January 2012 to June 2019. Among the non-APL, 90% patients (9/10) ended pregnancy prior to induction chemotherapy. The median intervals between diagnosis and start of chemotherapy were 5 days (range 1-14 days). Four patients elected to delay chemotherapy by more than one week. Of the seven APL patients, six received all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) before the diagnostic molecular results. Five patients underwent cesarean sections (CS) and all newborns were alive (four preterm and one full-term deliveries). Overall, approximately 94% of the patients (16/17) are currently alive in remission. To treat P-AML patients in a safer manner, balancing the risk of progressing to advanced disease and proceeding with pregnancy is required. We consider a slight delay (less than 14 days) in the termination of pregnancy may not differ the prognosis to patients with non-APL. For APL, patients will benefit from prompt administration of ATRA for highly suspected cases.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation and clinical significance of oxidative stress and inflammatory response in vascular vertigo (VV). The subjects were divided into three groups: vascular vertigo (group A), non-vascular vertigo (group B) and controls (group C). The serum levels of IL-6 (interleukins-6), SOD (superoxide dismutase), MDA (malondialdehyde) and TNF-α (tumor necrosis factor-α) and CD62P (also called P-Selectin) activation rates were determined and compared among the three groups. The levels of IL-6, TNF-α, MDA and CD62P in group A were significantly higher than those of group B and group C (P less than 0.05). The SOD level of group A was lower than that of group B and group C (P less than 0.05). There was no significant difference between groups B and C in IL-6, TNF- αMDA, SOD and CD62P (P>0.05). In patients with vascular vertigo, TNF-α levels had a weak linear correlation with those of low-density lipoprotein (P = 0.025, r = 0.312). There was no linear correlation between TNF-α and SOD in patients with VV and non-VV. The occurrence of inflammatory reaction and oxidative stress may cause abnormal lipid metabolism in the body and promote the occurrence of VV, and platelet activation may be involved in its formation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the prognostic value of morphology and Hans classification in diffuse large B cell lymphoma(DLBCL). METHODS Clinical data of 249 patients diagnosed with DLBCL in our hospital and Hangzhou Xixi hospital during Jan 2006 to Dec 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. These patients were classified into 3 groups: immunoblastic variant(IB) group, centroblastic variant(CB) group and others group according to the cell morphology. And DLBCL was also divided into GCB(germinal center B-cell-like)or non-GCB(non-germinal center B-cell-like) group by analyzing the expression of CD10, BCL6 and MUM1 (GCB: CD10 +,BCL6+-,MUM1+-/CD10-,BCL6+,MUM1-;non-GCB:CD10-,BCL6-,MUM1+-/CD10-,BCL6+,MUM1+). RESULTS The univariate analysis displayed that the age,LDH level,IPI,IB,non-GCB,B-symptoms and rituximab all could influence the OS and EFS, the CR rate of CB subtype patients was significantly higher than that of the patients with IB subtype (68.3% vs 38.9%)(P=0.02). IB subtype was the in dependent prognostic factor for both EFS and OS in the whole study. In multivariate analysis, IPI and IB were the independent prognostic factors for OS and EFS. IB subtype was also an independent prognostic factor in EFS and OS with or without rituximab. The expression of BCL2 and BCL6 was related with prognosis in R-CHOP, but not in CHOP treated patients. Other markers (CD5, CD10, IRF4/MUM1, HLA-DR and Ki-67 proliferation index) were not of the significant prognostic value for DLBCL. When accepted rituximab, the GCB and non-GCB were not different significantly for prognosis. However, the non-GCB group showed a poor prognosis without using rituximab (EFS P=0.020;OS P=0.020). Multivariate Cox models showed that OS and EFS were not significantly different between GCB and non-GCB group, however, the IB subtype had a very significantly poor prognosis in OS and EFS (P=0.001, P=0.002). When the analysis was restricted to DLBCL with CB morphology only, no prognostic value was observed in Hans classification. CONCLUSION The subtype of immunoblast is a major risk factor in patients treated with CHOP or R-CHOP. There is a significant association between the Hans classification and the morphologic subclassification. Results of this study have supplemented the data for the prognostic factor of DLBCL and demonstrated that the cytomorphologic diagnosis can be reproducible.

The purpose of this prospective, multi-center study was to examine the efficacy and safety of tigecycline as empirical treatment in neutropenic patients with hematological malignancies who failed to respond to first-line antibiotics. A total of 125 patients with persistent fever (>72 h) despite first-line antibiotics received empirical treatment with tigecycline (loading dose of 100 mg, followed by 50 mg every 12 h). The use of other antimicrobial agents was not restricted. Treatment success rate was 68.0%. Subgroup analysis revealed a success rate of 73.1% in patients with pneumonia and 35.3% in patients with bacteremia. Toxicities were moderate with gastrointestinal symptoms being the main side effects. In conclusion, tigecycline-based antibacterial regimen was a justifiable empirical treatment in febrile neutropenic patients who failed to respond to first-line antibiotics except those with bacteremia. For patients with bacteremia, trials on higher-dose of tigecycline are needed.

Abstract
To retrospectively analyze the prognostic significance of plasma Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA in 122 patients with diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Plasma EBV DNA positivity was related to advanced disease stage (P=0.030), B symptoms (P=0.004) and elevated serum lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) (P=0.001). Furthermore, univariate analysis indicated that plasma EBV DNA level was associated with worse overall survival (OS) (HR=0.223, 95%CI 0.096-0.518, P<0.001) and worse progression free survival (PFS) (HR=4.417, 95%CI 1.911-10.208, P<0.001), whereas multivariate analysis showed plasma EBV DNA as a probable independent prognostic factor of clinical outcome(HR=0.409, 95%CI 0.166-1.008, P=0.052).

Abstract
Objective: The aims of this study were to investigate the misdiagnosis of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) and to estimate the associated costs. Methods: During October 2015 to December 2015, eighty patients were diagnosed with BPPV in the outpatient dizziness clinic of Shanghai Changzheng Hospital and the clinical data of all the 80 patients were collected including the demographic and clinical characteristics, the history of diagnosis, inappropriate diagnostic tests, costs of the medical tests, transportation and accommodation. All the data were investigated to estimate the misdiagnosis of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo and the associated costs in Shanghai, China. Results: This study showed that the misdiagnosis rate of BPPV was 60.0% (48/80) and the common inappropriate diagnostic tests for BPPV included Cranial CT and MRI test, cervical MRI, cervical and cerebrovascular investigations et al. There was no significant difference between the misdiagnosis patients (48) and patients without misdiagnosis (32) in gender, age, duration of symptom, involved canal and type of BPPV.Complications were significantly more frequent in the misdiagnosis group than for those without[81.3%(39 /48) vs 34.4%(11 /32)]. The estimated costs for each misdiagnosed individual were 8 502.98 China Yuan (CNY) and one-year economic burden associated with the misdiagnosis of BPPV in Shanghai was 13.184 7-78.862 1 million CNY. Conclusions: Our study suggests that the misdiagnosis rate of BPPV is high and the financial impact on patients and society with this disease is huge. The cost-effective Dix-Hallpike or supine roll test maneuver should be used before applying other expensive medical tests in order to minimize misdiagnosis and the waste of health care resources.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the expression and clinical significance of tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily protein CD30 in diffuse large B cell lymhoma (DLBCL). METHODS The CD30 expression, clinical characteristics and prognosis of 63 patients with DLBCL, NOS out of 149 patients with DLBCL admitted in our hospital between January 2008 and December 2012 were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS no significant relationship existed between CD30 expression and clinical features, such as age, sex, B symptoms, staging, ECOG PS, LDH level, extranodal site involvement, IPI, GCB or non GCB type, bone marrow involvement. By univariate analysis, the clinical factors associated with general OS and EFS, included CD30, ECOG PS, B symptoms, extranodal site involvement, LDH level, IPI, bone marrow involvement and rituximab. Univariate analysis in GCB DLBCL indicated that CD30 had no significant effect on OS and EFS. However, univariate analysis in non-GCB DLBCL indicated CD30 was associated with longer OS (P=0.037) and showed a tendency of better EFS (P=0.067). In multivariate analysis, IPI and CD30 were independent prognostic factors for OS (IPI: P=0.000, 95%CI 0.042-0.374, CD30: P=0.044, 95%CI 1.055-60.613), and IPI also was independent prognostic factors for EFS (P=0.000, 95%CI 0.040-0.360). CD30+ and DLBCL have a tendency of better EFS (P=0.050, 95%CI 0.996-56.501). CONCLUSION CD30 expression level correlates with the prognosis of DLBCL and has a certain clinical value, which may be a new prognostic index of DLBCL.

Abstract
Immunomodulatory drug lenalidomide is a synthetic compound derived by modifying the chemical structure of thalidomide to improve its potency and reduce its side effects. Lenalidomide is a 4-amino-glutamyl analogue of thalidomide that has emerged as a drug with activity against various hematological and solid malignancies. It is approved by FDA in USA for clinical use in myelodysplastic syndromes with deletion of chromosome 5q and multiple myeloma. Studies have shown that lenalidomide exert anti-tumor activity probably by various mechanisms in hematologic malignancies, such as immunomodulation, anti-angiogenesis and effects on signal transduction. In this article, the progresses of study on these problems are reviewed.

Abstract
With intense femtosecond laser excitation, multiphoton absorption-induced stimulated emission and laser emission in ZnO bulk crystal and nanowires have been demonstrated at room temperature. UV-stimulated emission peaks appeared in both bulk crystal and nanowires when the excitation exceeded certain thresholds, and a sharp lasing peak with a linewidth of ~0.5 nm was observed from ZnO nanowires. The emission properties were attributed to the band-edge emission of the recombination of carriers excited by two- and three-photon absorption processes in the wide-bandgap semiconductor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND PURPOSE Restricture after internal urethrotomy is the major limitation to the long-term success of the procedure. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of intraurethral brachytherapy after internal urethrotomy or transurethral scar resection on recurrent urethral stricture. PATIENTS AND METHODS From January 1998 to June 1999, catheter-based intraurethral brachytherapy with 192-iridium was performed in 17 patients with recurrent urethral stricture to prevent restricture after internal urethrotomy or transurethral resection of scar. The radiation was repeated within 3 days after surgery to reach a total dosage of 1000 to 1500 cGy. RESULTS During the follow-up (range 14-27 months; mean 20 months), two patients had dysuria, including one patient with an atonic detrusor muscle. The other patient needed self-dilation. Fifteen patients presented normal voiding. The stricture recurred 3 months later in only one patient, so the restricture rate is 7%. No significant complication was observed associated with brachytherapy during the follow-up. CONCLUSION Intraurethral brachytherapy after internal urethrotomy or transurethral resection of scar is a safe and effective treatment for recurrent urethral strictures.

Abstract
With DNA polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism assay followed by direct DNA sequencing, p53 gene mutation was examined in bladder transitional epithelial cell carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma and testicular seminoma. p53 gene mutation was found in 7 cases (35%) of bladder carcinoma and 4 cases (23.5%) of testicular seminoma. Inactivation of Rb gene and activation of ras and c-erbB-2 were also studied. The results suggest that development of urologic neoplasms is closely associated with p53 gene mutation and involves loss of expression of Rb and aberrant expression of ras and c-erbB-2.

Abstract
Genomic deoxyribonucleic acid from 17 primary human testicular seminomas was screened for the presence of mutations in exons 5 to 8 of gene p53, using the single strand conformation polymorphism assay, followed by direct deoxyribonucleic acid sequencing. The p53 mutations in 1 allele leading to an amino acid change but a normal (wild-type) sequence in the remaining allele were identified in 4 of 17 seminomas (23.5%). Sites of mutations were in exon 5 (codon 141), exon 7 (codon 238, codon 258) and exon 8 (codon 270). The present study suggested that mutation of the p53 gene is involved in the development of human testicular seminoma as in the case of several other types of human cancers.

Abstract
Expression of p53 protein was examined in 67 cases of primary transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder and 6 normal controls using an immunohistochemical method on paraffin sections. Positive nuclear staining for p53 in malignant cells was found in 34 (51%) of the 67 cancer patients; no positive staining for p53 was detected in any of the normal controls or in the benign cells, including stromal and inflammatory cells, within the tumor tissue. There were 8 positive cases (33%) in 24 grade G1 tumors, 12 (48%) in 25 G2 tumors and 14 (78%) in 18 G3 tumors. p53 protein was detected positively in 14 (36%) of 39 superficial tumors (Tis-T1) and in 20 (71%) of 28 invasive tumors (T2-T4). Thus, positive staining for p53 was found more frequently in poorly differentiated tumors (chi-squared test: G3/G1 + G2 P < 0.01) and in invasive tumors (chi-squared test: T2-T4/Tis-T1 P < 0.01). Expression of p53 was also closely associated with recurrence of tumors. Alterations in p53 expression may be of prognostic value in cases of bladder transitional cell carcinoma.

Abstract
Expression of the ras and the c-erbB-2 oncogene products was investigated in 56 cases of human bladder transitional cell carcinoma and 6 samples of human normal bladder tissue using an immunohistochemical method. Thirty of the 56 cases of bladder tumor were found to be immunohistologically positive with the monoclonal anti-ras p21 antibody, while 19 of 56 cases were positive with the polyclonal anti-c-erbB-2 oncoprotein antibody. All 6 controls were negative with both antibodies. The ras p21 positive staining was found more frequently in the well or moderately differentiated, superficial and non-recurrent tumors than in the poorly differentiated (p < 0.01), muscle invasive (p < 0.05) and recurrent tumors (p < 0.01), while the c-erbB-2 gene product was more commonly detected in high-grade (p < 0.01), invasive (p < 0.01) and recurrent tumors (p < 0.05). Thus, the expression of either ras or c-erbB-2 was closely associated with the histological grade, clinical stage and recurrence of bladder transitional cell carcinomas.

Abstract
Clinical data on 50 patients with arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO) in China (Group A) and Japan (Group B) respectively were studied for better understanding of these changing trends. The results showed that the incidence of ASO peaked in Group A in the 50 to 69 age range (88%) and in Group B in the 55 to 74 age range (78%). Group A had a lower ratio of smokers and cases of diabetes mellitus than Group B but a higher ratio of hypertension and a higher total cholesterol level. Angiography showed that the prevalence of atherosclerotic lesions in the lower extremities as a whole was similar for both groups. They were different in location, extent and severity of the arteries involved between the two groups. We believe that this study has shown various differences between the two groups but that the causes are probably multifactorial.

Abstract
197 cases of paediatric pneumonia from 2 hospitals were treated by Ning Fei Pian (NFP, the Lung Easing Tablets), a proprietary Chinese medicine for antipyresis, detoxication, blood invigoration, resolution of cough and phlegm; the control group was treated by penicillin, and the therapeutic results were comparable. Examinations of microcirculation and hemorrheology in the nailbed revealed improvements by NFP, which were conducive to the recovery of pneumonia. Electron-microscopically, the tablets also produced improvements in microcirculation, relief of lung edema, and the ratio of ventilation and blood flow.

Abstract
Asymmetrically broadened line shapes observed in the stimulated Raman and elastically scattered spectra from a CS(2) droplet are manifestations of phase modulation by means of the intensity-dependent index of refraction. Unique features of the droplet morphology in enhancing the internal fields at the input and Stokes wavelengths and in prolonging the decay time of the waves within the droplet, which acts as an optical cavity, are discussed.

Abstract
When dye-doped ethanol droplets are irradiated with an intense pulsed laser beam, the resulting laser emission from individual droplets highlights the liquid-air interface. Photographs of the lasing droplets in the micrometer size range taken in a single 10-nanosecond laser pulse clearly show the dynamic changes in droplet size, shape, and orientation.

Abstract
The coherent Raman mixing spectra from individual micrometer-sized droplets of ethanol and of water consist of regularly spaced peaks that correspond to the morphology-dependent resonances of a spherical droplet. In contrast, the coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering spectra from droplets exhibit no morphology-dependent peaks. Both results are explained by the spatial overlap of the matching conditions associated with the droplet.

Abstract
Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) from an individual liquid droplet (~30-microm radius) has been observed for H(2)O, D(2)O, and ethanol. The occurrence of a series of spectrally narrow peaks that are regularly spaced in wavelength is consistent with morphology-dependent resonances of the droplet, which acts as an optical resonator. The input intensity required to achieve the SRS threshold for the droplet is considerably less than that for the liquid in an optical cell.
