In the United States, it causes more cancer-related deaths than the next four causes (breast cancer, prostate cancer, colon cancer, and pancreatic cancer) of cancer-related mortality combined (1). About 30% of people have already progressed to stage III lung cancer and 40% to stage IV at the time they are diagnosed (2). Although chest X-ray and sputum cytology, when applied in health check-ups, can identify some relatively small tumors, they are not able to lower the overall mortality (3). More recently,展开更多

Enrolled lesions were divided into groups of pure differentiated(pure D), pure undifferentiated(pure U), and mixed-type according to the proportion of the differentiated and undifferentiated components observed under a microscope. We reviewed the clinicopathological features, including age, sex, location, size, gross type, lymphovascular invasion, ulceration, and LNM, among the three groups. furthermore, we evaluated the predictors of LNM in the mucosa-confined EGC.RESULTS Of the 298 patients, 165(55.4%) had mucosa-confined EGC and 133(44.6%) had submucosa-invasive EGC. Only 13(7.9%) cases of mucosa-confined EGC and 30(22.6%) cases of submucosa-invasive EGC were observed to have LNM. The submucosal invasion(OR = 4.58, 95%CI: 1.23-16.97, P = 0.023), pure U type(OR = 4.97, 95%CI: 1.21-20.39, P = 0.026), and mixedtype(OR = 5.84, 95%CI: 1.05-32.61, P = 0.044) were independent risk factors for LNM in EGC. The rate of LNM in mucosa-confined EGC was higher in the mixedtype group(P = 0.012) and pure U group(P = 0.010) than in the pure D group, but no significant difference was found between the mixed-type group and pure U group(P = 0.739). Similarly, the rate of LNM in the submucosa-invasive EGC was higher in the mixedtype(P = 0.012) and pure U group(P = 0.009) than in the pure D group but was not significantly different between the mixed-type and pure U group(P = 0.375). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that only female sex(OR = 5.83, 95%CI: 1.64-20.70, P = 0.028) and presence of lymphovascular invasion(OR = 13.18, 95%CI: 1.39-125.30, P = 0.020) were independent risk factors for LNM in mucosa-confined EGC, while histological type was not an independent risk factor for LNM in mucosa-confined EGC(P = 0.106).CONCLUSION for mucosal EGC, histological mixed-type is not an independent risk factor for LNM and could be managed in the same way as the undifferentiated type.展开更多

A chain-type WSN is fundamental y different from other types of WSNs, in which the sensor nodes are deployed along elongated geographic areas and form a chain-type network topo-logy structure. This paper investigates the node scheduling prob-lem in the chain-type WSN. Firstly, a node dormant scheduling mode is analyzed theoretical y from geographic coverage, and then three neighboring nodes scheduling criteria are proposed. Sec-ondly, a hybrid coverage scheduling algorithm and dead areas are presented. Final y, node scheduling in mine tunnel WSN with uniform deployment (UD), non-uniform deployment (NUD) and op-timal distribution point spacing (ODS) is simulated. The results show that the node scheduling with UD and NUD, especial y NUD, can effectively extend the network survival time. Therefore, a strat-egy of adding a few mobile nodes which activate the network in dead areas is proposed, which can further extend the network survival time by balancing the energy consumption of nodes.展开更多

Predictive risk factors of LNM included age, sex, location of the tumor center, confirmed Barrett’s esophageal adenocarcinoma, tumor size, macroscopic tumor type, pathology, invasion depth, presence of ulceration, and lymphovascular invasion. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors predicting LNM. We also evaluated the frequencies of LNM for Siewert type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ pT1 adenocarcinomas in meta-data analysis.RESULTSLNMs were found in 11 out of 85 patients (12.9%, 95%CI: 5.8-20.0). Only 1 of the 15 patients (6.6%, 95%CI: 0.0-19.2) who had a final diagnosis of pT1a adenocarcinoma had a positive LNM, whereas 10 of the 70 patients (14.2%, 95%CI: 6.0-22.4) with a final diagnosis of pT1b adenocarcinoma had positive LNM. Furthermore, only one of the 30 patients (3.3%, 95%CI: 0.0-9.7) with a tumor invasion depth within 500 μm from muscularis mucosae had positive LNM. Poor differentiation and lymphovascular invasion were independently associated with a risk of LNM. In meta-data analysis, 12 of the 355 patients (3.3%, 95%CI: 1.5-5.2) who had a final diagnosis of pT1a adenocarcinoma had a positive LNM, whereas 91 of the 438 patients (20.7%, 95%CI: 16.9-24.5) with a fnal diagnosis of pT1b adenocarcinoma had positive LNM.CONCLUSIONWe consider endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is suitable for patients with Siewert type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ T1a adenocarcinomas. For patients with T1b adenocarcinoma, especially invasion depth is within 500 μm from muscularis mucosae with no other risk factor for LNM, diagnostic ESD could be a treatment option according to the overall status of patients and the presence of comorbidities.展开更多
