Fifteen clinicopathologic factors possiblyinfluencing survival were selected. Independent variableswere first analyzed by univariate methods. Survival forvariable was estimated by the method of Kaplan and Meier.The variables that were statistically significant by univarlateanalysis were included in a multivariate analysis, which wereconfirmed using the Cox stepwise proportion hazard modelwith the help of SPSS 10.0 for Windows software.RESULTS: The overall cumulative survival rate was 72.6 %at 1 year, 32.4 % at 3 years, and 18.7 % at 5 years. Theresults of univariate analysis showed that the majorsignificant prognostic factors influencing survival of thesepatients were histological type of lesion, lymph nodemetastasis, pancreatic invasion, duodenal invasion, pedneuralinvasion, macroscopic vessel involvement, resected surgicalmargin and depth of cancer invasion (P=0.02, 0.02, 0.004,0.005, 0.01, 0.43, 0.03 and 0.04). Age, sex, location of tumor,size of tumor, macroscopic type of lesions, hepaticmetastasis, and hepatic invasion were not significantlyassociated with prognosis (P>0.05). Pancreatic invasion,perineural invasion and lymph node metastases were thethree most important prognostic factors by multivariateanalysis using the Cox proportional hazards model.CONCLUSION: Pancreatic invasion, pedneural invasion andlymph node metastases are the most important prognosticfactors for bile duct carcinoma after curative resection.展开更多

Recently, doubled haploid (DH) progenies derivedfrom anther culture have also been used in molecular mapping projects as permanent popula-tions. Some studies have revealed that the rice culturability is controlled by a few genetic fac-tors. Xue suggested that it was an inheritable trait with additive gene effect. Wu展开更多
