Results and prognosis after highly selective vagotomy in the light of the mathematical theory of approximate sets]

Information system for 122 patients with peptic ulcer, who underwent highly selective vagotomy within 5 and 13 years earlier has been analysed with the use of technique based on the approximate sets theory. Cause-effect relationship between data describing the analysed patients before surgery and remote result of therapy (expressed in a 4-score Visick's scale) have been sought. Using a technique of the approximate sets, information system has been described from 11 to 5 significant and necessary preoperative data most closely related with the result of therapy. Models of the typical representatives of results classes have been constructed with the use of a/m data. Then, a decision algorithm has been made. Such an algorithm represents cause-effect relationship between significant data and the result of treatment. Models and decision algorithm for the favourable results of the treatment (I and II class in Visick's scale) constituted a base for the verification of indications to the highly selective vagotomy and construction of data base for computer-assisted system of the treatment of peptic ulcers with the highly selective vagotomy.     

Risk factors of postoperative recurrences in patients with clinical stage I NSCLC

Background

Despite advances in radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and newly developed molecular targeting therapies, long-term survival after resection for patients with NSCLC remains less than 50%. We investigated factors predicting postoperative locoregional recurrences and distant metastases in patients with clinical stage I non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after surgical resection.

Methods

All patients with clinical stage I NSCLC, who underwent surgical resection between January 2002 and June 2006, were reviewed retrospectively. Multiple logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent risk factors for patients with locoregional recurrences and distant metastases.

Results

A total of 261 patients were eligible. Overall survival was significant related to locoregional recurrences (P?=?0.03) and distant metastases (P <0.001). There were significant differences of locoregional recurrence in tumor differentiation (P?=?0.032) and advanced pathological stage (P?=?0.002). In the group of distant metastases, there were significant differences in tumor differentiation (P?=?0.035), lymphovascular space invasion (P?=?0.031). Among the relationship between pattern of distant metastasis and clinicopathologic variables in patients with clinical stage I NSCLC, SUVmax (P?=?0.02) and tumor size (P?=?0.001) had significant differences. According to multiple logistic regression analysis, tumor differentiation is the only risk factor of postoperative outcome for locoregional recurrence and serum CEA (>3.5 ng/mL) is the predictor of distant metastasis.

Conclusions

Tumor differentiation and serum CEA were predictors of postoperative relapse for clinical stage I NSCLC after surgical resection. Risk factors of postoperative recurrence in patients with clinical stage I NSCLC may enable us to optimize the patient selection for postoperative adjuvant therapies or neoadjuvant treatment before surgery.     

TK1在肺癌患者血清中的表达水平及其与肿瘤临床病理特征及预后的关系

目的:探讨肺癌患者血清胸腺嘧啶核苷激酶1(TK1)与肿瘤临床病理特征及预后的关系。方法:选择2012年1月-2014年1月在我院接受治疗的肺癌患者79例作为研究对象,另选择同期在我院接受健康体检的志愿者53例作为对照组。采用化学发光法检测两组研究对象血清中TK1的表达情况,并分析TK1表达与肿瘤临床病理特征及预后的关系。结果:TK1在肺癌患者血清中的阳性表达率(56.96%)显著高于健康对照组(16.98%),差异具有统计学意义(P0.05)。肿瘤分期为晚期的患者血清中TK1的阳性表达率高于肿瘤分期为早期的肺癌患者,差异具有统计学意义(P0.05);肿瘤远处转移的患者血清中TK1的阳性表达率高于未发生远处转移的患者,差异具有统计学意义(P0.05)。TK1在性别、抽烟史、淋巴结转移及病理类型不同患者血清中的阳性表达率比较,差异无统计学意义(P0.05)。TK1阳性患者两年生存率(42.22%)低于TK1阴性患者(64.71%),差异具有统计学意义(P0.05)。结论:肺癌患者血清中TK1呈高表达,其表达水平与肿瘤远处转移、TMN分期及预后有关。     

Postoperative hypoparathyroidism: risk of complications]

For assessing the risk of adverse complications of surgery the group of 130 patients with post-operational hypoparathyroidism was analysed. Surgical hypoparathyroidism has been diagnosed in 51% of operated on thyroid gland patients. Laryngeal nerves have been damaged in 46.6% of patients. The injury to laryngeal nerves has been irreversible in 2/3 of patients, and reversible in the remaining 1/3. Cataract, nephrolithiasis and vitamin D3 intoxication have been observed in some cases before surgery. Their incidence increased in severe surgical hypoparathyroidism. Osteoporosis of the spine has been diagnosed in 49% of patients including some with vertebral fractures. No correlation between the degree of spine osteoporosis and diagnosis before surgery, number of operations on thyroid gland, and type of therapy has been noted. The symptoms of hypercalcemia have been diagnosed in 5 patients out of which hypercalcemia has been transient in 2 patients, and lasted for 1-5 months in the remaining 3 patients. The results of 7,873 analyses of mineral metabolism have been assessed. Hypocalcemia has been found in 38.4%, hypercalcemia in 1.6%, hypomagnesemia in 25.7%, hyperphosphatemia in 41.5%, decreased alkaline phosphatase serum activity in 28.7%, and hypercalciuria in 22.4% of cases. Surgical hypoparathyroidism is frequently accompanied by surgical hypothyroidism and injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerves.     

Cancer Incidence and Mortality After Gastric Bypass Surgery

Despite weight loss recommendations to prevent cancer, cancer outcome studies after intentional weight loss are limited. Recently, reduced cancer mortality following bariatric surgery has been reported. This study tested whether reduced cancer mortality following gastric bypass was due to decreased incidence. Cancer incidence and mortality data through 2007 from the Utah Cancer Registry (UCR) were compared between 6,596 Utah patients who had gastric bypass (1984–2002) and 9,442 severely obese persons who had applied for Utah Driver's Licenses (1984–2002). Study outcomes included incidence, case‐fatality, and mortality for cancer by site and stage at diagnosis of all gastric bypass patients, compared to nonoperated severely obese controls. Follow‐up was over a 24‐year period (mean 12.5 years). Total cancer incidence was significantly lower in the surgical group compared to controls (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.76; confidence interval (CI) 95%, 0.65–0.89; P = 0.0006). Lower incidence in surgery patients vs. controls was primarily due to decreased incidence of cancer diagnosed at regional or distant stages. Cancer mortality was 46% lower in the surgery group compared to controls (HR = 0.54; CI 95%, 0.37–0.78; P = 0.001). Although the apparent protective effect of surgery on risk of developing cancer was limited to cancers likely known to be obesity related, the inverse association for mortality was seen for all cancers. Significant reduction in total cancer mortality in gastric bypass patients compared with severely obese controls was associated with decreased incidence, primarily among subjects with advanced cancers. These findings suggest gastric bypass results in lower cancer risk, presumably related to weight loss, supporting recommendations for reducing weight to lower cancer risk.     

腹腔镜直肠癌切除术与开腹根治术的远期疗效对比

目的:比较腹腔镜直肠癌切除术与开腹根治术的远期疗效。方法:选取在我院治疗的直肠癌患者84例,随机分为观察组(腹腔镜切除术)和对照组(开腹根治术)各42例。对比两组患者的术后临床效果及1年、3年的局部复发率、远处转移率及生存率。结果:观察组术后出血量、肠功能恢复时间、保肛率、下床活动时间、术后住院天数及术后并发症均优于观察组,两组比较差异具有统计学意义(P0.05)。两组手术时间比较,差异无统计学意义(P0.05)。两组患者淋巴结清扫个数、标本长度及远切端距离比较,差异均无统计学意义(P0.05)。观察组手术1年和3年后局部复发率、远处转移率及生存率比较,差异无统计学意义(P0.05)。结论:直肠癌采取腹腔镜切除术与开腹根治术有同样的远期治疗效果,临床上可根据患者情况优先选用。     

Bacterioferritins and ferritins are distantly related in evolution. Conservation of ferroxidase-centre residues

Iron-storage proteins can be divided into two classes; the bacterioferritins and ferritins. In spite of many apparent structural and functional analogies, no significant amino acid sequence similarity has been detected previously. This report now reveals a distant evolutionary relationship between bacterioferritins and ferritins derived by 'Profile Analysis'. Optimum alignment of bacterioferritin and ferritin sequences suggests that key residues of the ferroxidase centres of ferritins are conserved in bacterioferritins.     

Thrombolytic therapy in arterial thrombosis producing acute ischemia of the lower limbs]

Efficiency of the thrombolytic therapy in the acute arterial thrombosis (producing an acute ischemia of the lower limbs) with streptokinase has been assessed in 35 patients treated in the selected departments of vascular surgery in Poland. Complete recovery has been noted in 9 patients (25.7%) in whom limb functioning with detectable peripheral pulse have been restored. An improvement has been achieved in 12 (34.3%) patients and moderate result in 4 (11.4%) patients. The limb has been amputated in 7 (20%) patients, and 3 patients (8.6%) died. Similar results have been observed in case of ischemia of duration period below 12 hours, between 12 and 24 hours, and between 24 and 72 hours. The results have been worse when thrombolytic therapy was introduced after 72 hours.     

Adjuvant therapy after radical surgery of cervical cancer: Zagreb experience

The results of the analysis of the treatment of 72 patients with carcinoma of the uterine cervix are presented. Seventy-two patients with Stage IB1 carcinoma of the cervix underwent a radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy. The low-risk group includes the patients without unfavourable prognostic factors that were treated by surgery alone. The high-risk group included women with pelvic node metastases, clinical tumour size greater than 3.0 cm, depth of stromal invasion greater than 1/3 of the cervical wall, Grade 3 tumours and the presence of lympho-vascular space involvement. High-risk patients received whole pelvic radiotherapy between two and four weeks following surgery. Thirty-four patients (47.2%) were in the low-risk group and thirty-eight patients (52.8%) were in the high-risk group. Locoregional recurrences were diagnosed in three cases (8.8%) in the surgery group and in four patients (10.5 %) assigned to postoperative radiotherapy. The incidence of distant metastases was 2.9% in the group treated by surgery alone and 5.3% in the group treated by surgery and radiotherapy. Overall survival at five years was 91.2% in the low-risk group and 89.5% in the high-risk group of patients. Five-year overall survival, locoregional and distant metastases were similar in the low-risk and high-risk groups of patients, which emphasizes the value of whole pelvic radiation in patients with one or more unfavourable prognostic factors after radical surgery in Stage IB1 cervical cancer     

Linking Zinc and Leptin in Chronic Kidney Disease: Future Directions

Anorexia is a common complication in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with the development of malnutrition and an increased risk of mortality. Several compounds are linked to anorexia in these patients; however, the mechanisms are unknown. Zinc (Zn) deficiency is associated with decreased food intake and has been observed in CKD patients. In addition, leptin is an anorexigenic peptide, and patients with CKD present generally high levels of this hormone. Studies have suggested an association between Zn and leptin status in human and rats; however, the results are inconsistent. Some claimed that Zn supplementation does not change leptin release or that there is no significant relationship between Zn and leptin. Others have reported that Zn might be a mediator of leptin production. CKD patients have hyperleptinemia and hypozincemia, but the relationship between Zn deficiency and leptin levels in CKD patients has been poorly understood until now. The aim of this review is to integrate knowledge on leptin and Zn actions to provide a cohesive clinical perspective regarding their interactions in CKD patients.     

Serum Uric Acid Levels and the Risk of Impaired Fasting Glucose: A Prospective Study in Adults of North China

Objective

To prospectively investigate the association between serum uric acid (SUA) level and incidence of impaired fasting glucose (IFG) in adult Chinese.

Methods

We evaluated 13,328 women and 41,350 men without diabetes and IFG. The participants were classified into quintile according to baseline level of SUA. Data were analyzed to examine the association between SUA levels and the incidence of IFG. We used Cox regression models to estimate the relative risk of IFG after adjusting for known risk factors.

Results

For men, the second quintile of SUA has the lowest cumulative incidence of IFG (29.9%); the fifth quintile of SUA has the highest cumulative incidence of IFG (35.6%). After corrected with Cox regression, the first quartile and the fourth quartile have higher cumulative incidence of IFG than the second quintile, with the HR of 1.11(1.05-1.17) and 1.07(1.01-1.13), respectively. For women, the first quartile of SUA has the lowest cumulative incidence of IFG (20.7%), while the fifth quintile of SUA has the highest cumulative incidence of IFG (30.0%). However, there is no significant difference in IFG between different quintile after adjusted with Cox regression.

Conclusions

The results of this prospective study suggest that there is a higher risk of developing IFG in association with low or high SUA concentrations for men. These relationships were independent of other known risk factors. There is no significant correlation in the risk of developing IFG in association with SUA concentrations for women. Analyses excluding participants with hypertension or with hyperlipidemia and analyses with participants stratified by age reached similar conclusion.     

Surgeon specific mortality in adult cardiac surgery: comparison between crude and risk stratified data

Objective As a result of recent failures in clinical governance the government has made a commitment to bring individual surgeons'' mortality data into the public domain. We have analysed a database to compare crude mortality after coronary artery bypass surgery with outcomes that were stratified by risk.Design Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data.Setting All NHS centres in the geographical north west of England that undertake cardiac surgery in adults.Participants All patients undergoing isolated bypass graft surgery for the first time between April 1999 and March 2002.Main outcome measures Surgeon specific postoperative mortality and predicted mortality by EuroSCORE.Results 8572 patients were operated on by 23 surgeons. Overall mortality was 1.7%. Observed mortality between surgeons ranged from 0% to 3.7%; predicted mortality ranged from 2% to 3.7%. Eighty five per cent (7286) of the patients had a EuroSCORE of 5 or less; 49% of the deaths were in this lower risk group. A large proportion of the variability in predicted mortality between surgeons was due to a small but differing number of high risk patients.Conclusions It is possible to collect risk stratified data on all patients undergoing coronary bypass surgery. For most the predicted mortality is low. The small proportion of high risk patients is responsible for most of the differences in predicted mortality between surgeons. Crude comparisons of death rates can be misleading and may encourage surgeons to practise risk averse behaviour. We recommend a comparison of death rates that is stratified by risk and based on low risk cases as the national benchmark for assessing consultant specific performance.     

Prevalence and prognosis of synchronous colorectal cancer: a Dutch population-based study

Background: A noticeable proportion of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients are diagnosed with synchronous CRC. Large population-based studies on the incidence, risk factors and prognosis of synchronous CRC are, however, scarce, and are needed for better determination of risks of synchronous CRC in patients diagnosed with colonic neoplasia. Methods: All newly diagnosed CRC between 1995 and 2006 were obtained from the Rotterdam Cancer Registry in The Netherlands, and studied for synchronous CRC. Results: Of the 13,683 patients diagnosed with CRC, 534 patients (3.9%) were diagnosed with synchronous CRC. The risk of having synchronous CRC was significantly higher in men (OR 1.54, 95% CI 1.29–1.84) and in patients aged >70 years (OR 1.83, 95% CI 1.39–2.40). Synchronous CRC patients had a significantly higher risk of distant metastases (OR 1.69, 95% CI 1.27–2.26). In 34% (184/534) the two tumours were located in different surgical segments. Five-year relative survival of synchronous CRC was similar to patients with solitary CRC after multivariate adjustment for the presence of distant metastases. Conclusion: One out of 25 patients diagnosed with CRC presents with synchronous CRC. In the multivariate analysis, survival of patients with synchronous CRC was similar to patients with solitary CRC, when corrected for the presence of distant metastases at first presentation. One third of the synchronous CRC were located in different surgical segments, which stresses the importance of performing total colon examination preferably prior to surgery.     

The half-life of thymidine kinase 1 in serum measured by ECL dot blot: a potential marker for monitoring the response to surgery of patients with gastric cancer

Thymidine kinase 1 in serum (STK1) of patients with gastric cancer was determined by two methods: ECL dot blot and radioactivity assay. Both measurements showed significantly different values for preoperative STK1 and healthy STK1 (p=0.012 for ECL dot blot and p=0.003 for the radioactivity assay). The preliminary results of ECL dot blot STK1 measurement showed that in tumor-free subjects the level of the enzyme was significantly reduced to 52.7% 35 days after surgery (n=8, p=0.0106). The decrease in STK1 levels in the tumor-free subjects paralleled the decline of the half-life of the STK1 enzyme. In patients with distant metastases (n=6) the enzyme level had increased to 173% 35 days postoperatively. By contrast, with the radioactivity assay no significant differences in thymidine kinase activity for 0-day-postoperative patients and 35-day-postoperative tumor-free patients was found (p=0.329). The activity decreased to 80% in 35-day-postoperative patients with metastatic disease. We suggest that the value of the half-life of STK1 measured by ECL dot blot can be used as a potential marker for monitoring the response to surgery in patients with gastric or other cancers one month after surgery.

目的:研究胆管癌和正常胆管组织中TrkB蛋白的表达及其与临床病理特征的关系。方法:免疫组化检测42例胆管癌和10例正常胆管石蜡切片标本中TrkB蛋白的表达并分析其与临床病理因素的关系。结果:正常胆管组织中无TrkB蛋白的表达,胆管癌组织TrkB蛋白的表达率为69.0%(29/42)。TrkB表达与分化程度、有无淋巴结转移和远处转移有关,而与性别、年龄、肿瘤大小无关。TrkB蛋白在低分化组、有淋巴结转移组和有远处转移组中的表达率均高于高中分化组,无淋巴结转移组和无远处转移组(P<0.05)。结论:TrkB在胆管癌组织中的表达可作为预测胆管癌发生淋巴结转移和远处转移的指标。     

凝血及纤溶系统在腹腔镜子宫全切手术后的变化

目的:比较分析妇科腹腔镜子宫全切术与开腹子宫全切术对凝血及纤溶系统功能的影响。方法:选择75例接受子宫全切除术的患者,随机分为腹腔镜组38例和开腹组37例,分别于术前24h、术后24h及术后48h采用凝固法检测血浆凝血酶原时间(PT),活化部分凝血活酶时间(APTT),凝血酶时间(TT),纤维蛋白原(FIB)水平,采用酶联免疫吸附双抗体夹心法(ELISA)测定血浆D-二聚体(D-D)的含量。自动血细胞技术分析仪测定血小板(PLT)。结果:①腹腔镜组与开腹组术前24h及术后48h血浆PT、APTT、TT、FIB、PLT、D-D水平相比差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。②两组病人术后24h血浆PT、APTT均缩短,组间相比差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),但与术前24h相比差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。③TT及PLT在术前24h及术后24h水平相比差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。④FIB、D-D两组术后24h均升高,与术前相比差异有统计学意义(P<0.05),组间比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论:腹腔镜子宫全切除术特殊的二氧化碳气腹的建立,头低臀高的膀胱截石位,气管插管的全麻协同作用,使患者的血流动力学发生改变,血流速度减慢,同开腹手术一样,均可使患者术后血液呈现不同程度高凝状态,从而均可增加术后下肢静脉血栓形成的危险。因此,对有高危因素的患者应加强围手术期的管理,防止血栓性疾病的发生。     

Hypertriglyceridemia and the fibrate trials

Epidemiological studies published since 1996 have established that hypertriglyceridemia can predict risk of cardiovascular disease in a manner statistically independent of HDL cholesterol. Nevertheless, the relationship of concentrations of plasma triglycerides to risk of cardiovascular disease remains less than straightforward, partly because triglycerides are carried in lipoproteins of different atherogenicity, partly because hypertriglyceridemia is associated with non-lipid atherogenic and thrombogenic processes. For example, the association of highest risk of cardiovascular disease to moderate rather than to severe hypertriglyceridemia can be understood in terms of the distribution of triglycerides between different classes of plasma lipoproteins. It is counter-intuitive to most clinicians, however, and hence it can result in the misdirection of clinical efforts including drug therapy.Fibrates lower plasma triglycerides, and raise HDL, efficiently and with few immediate side-effects. Central to their mode of action is activation of certain nuclear receptors in cells. There is no necessary connection, however, between that fascinating biochemistry and clinical benefit as defined by reductions in rates of death by coronary artery disease. A review of trials of cholesterol-lowering by diet and drugs, published between 1966 and 1996, included 12 trials of therapy with fibrates or placebo in more than 21000 patients. Overall, these trials indicated no benefit in terms of reduction in risk of coronary deaths. The period since 1996 has seen the publication of four additional trials of treatment of 6144 patients with fibrates or placebo. Two of them were major trials. The VA-HIT was very encouraging, because treatment with gemfibrozil produced a signficant reduction in the combined incidence of fatal and non-fatal coronary events. There was no significant reduction in coronary deaths, however. The results of BIP were frankly disappointing, because they demonstrated no significant effect of treatment with bezafibrate on either the primary end-point of the trial or on rates of coronary death.Clinical indications for the use of fibrates can obviously not be based on biochemical insights, however intriguing in their own right, but they have also not been satisfactorily defined by the randomized clinical trials published to date. Hope remains, however, that some clarification will result from ongoing trials of fibrate treatment of patients with type II diabetes.

Combined surgery and radiotherapy in the treatment of ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast: preliminary results of the Hungarian multicenter prospective randomised study

The aim of this work is to report the preliminary results of the Hungarian multicentric randomised DCIS study. Between 2000 and 2007, 278 patients with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) treated by breast-conserving surgery were randomised according to predetermined risk groups. Low/intermediate-risk patients (n=29) were randomised to 50 Gy whole-breast irradiation (WBI) or observation. High-risk cases (n=235) were allocated to receive 50 Gy WBI vs. 50 Gy WBI plus 16 Gy tumour bed boost. Very high-risk patients (patients with involved surgical margins; n=14) were randomised to 50 Gy WBI plus 16 Gy tumour bed boost or reoperation (reexcision plus radiotherapy or mastectomy alone). Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed to detect the expression of potential molecular prognostic markers (ER, PR, Her2, p53, Bcl-2 and Ki-67). At a median follow-up of 36 months no recurrence was observed in the low/intermediate- and very high-risk patient groups. In the high-risk group, 4 (1.7%) local recurrences and 1 (0.4%) distant metastasis occurred. No patient died of breast cancer. In the high-risk group of patients, the 3- and 5-year probability of local recurrence was 1.1% and 3.1%, respectively. The positive immunostaining for Her2 (38%), p53 (37%) and Ki-67 (44%) correlated with a high nuclear grade. Significant inverse correlation was found between the expression of ER (77%), PR (67%), Bcl-2 (64%) and grade. Preliminary results suggest that breast-conserving surgery followed by radiotherapy yields an annual local recurrence rate of less than 1% in patients with DCIS. IHC of molecular prognostic markers can assist to gain insight into the biologic heterogeneity of DCIS.     

磁共振成像表观扩散系数与乳腺浸润性导管癌组织学分级及预后指标的相关性研究

目的:探讨磁共振成像(MRI)表观扩散系数(ADC)与乳腺浸润性导管癌组织学分级及其预后指标的相关性。方法:收集2016年5月至2017年5月于我院就诊的并经手术病理确诊为乳腺浸润性导管癌的患者112例作为研究对象,选取患者乳腺癌组织样本作为病例组,同时选取患者对侧正常乳腺组织样本作为对照组,所有患者均行常规MRI和磁共振扩散加权成像(DW-MRI)检查,分别测量两组样本的ADC值,比较不同乳腺浸润性导管癌组织学分级与正常乳腺组织的ADC值,分析乳腺浸润性导管癌组织的ADC值与肿瘤直径大小、淋巴结转移状态、有无远处转移及雌激素受体(ER)、孕激素受体(PR)和Ki-67表达的关系,并分析ADC值与组织学分级及预后指标的相关性。结果:乳腺浸润性导管癌病理分级I级的ADC值低于对照组,病理分级II级的ADC值低于病理分级I级及对照组,病理分级III级的ADC值低于病理分级II级、I级及对照组,差异均具有统计学意义(P0.05)。乳腺浸润性导管癌患者中,肿块直径2 cm、无淋巴结转移、ER阴性、PR阴性、Ki-67阴性患者的平均ADC值均高于肿块直径≥2 cm、有淋巴结转移、ER阳性、PR阳性、Ki-67阳性患者,差异均具有统计学意义(P0.05);而有无远处转移患者之间比较差异无统计学意义(P0.05)。经Spearman秩相关分析结果显示,乳腺浸润性导管癌患者的ADC值与病理组织学分级呈现负相关关系(rs=-0.716,P=0.000);与肿块直径大小、有无淋巴结转移及ER、PR、Ki-67的表达均呈负相关(rs=-0.316、-0.545、-0.667、-0.598、-0.443,P均0.05),与有无远处转移无相关性(rs=0.091,P=0.887)。结论:乳腺浸润性导管癌的ADC值与癌组织学分级和预后相关指标存在一定相关性,可作为一种临床诊断和判断预后的重要指标,具有重要临床价值。
