[Diagnostic value of ADC and rADC of diffusion weighted imaging in malignant breast lesions].
The aim of this study was to evaluate the value of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) in the diagnosis of patients with breast diseases. ⋯ DWI spends short time, and it doesn't need contrast material. ADC value and rADC value have a high sensitivity and specificity as a diagnostic indicator. DWI is helpful in improving the specificity of MR and may become one of valuable conventional procedures for breast tumor diagnosis.

[Correlation of microvascular density and clinicopathological factors in different subtypes of renal cell carcinoma].
The aim of this study was to evaluate the expressions of CD34, CD31 and microvessel density (MVD) in different subtypes of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) as well as the relationship between MVD and clinicopathological factors. ⋯ MVD is significantly correlated with different types of endothelial labeling. The microvascular endothelial cells could be shown clearly by its related antigen labeling such as CD34 and CD31. CD34 is more sensitive than CD31. The MVD of CCRCC is significantly higher than that in non-CCRCC. The expressions of CD31 and CD34 are not correlated with tumor grade and stage in ChRCC and PRCC, while there is a negative correlation in CCRCC.

[Expression of Gemcitabine-resistance-related gene and polymorphism of ribonucleotide reductase M1 gene promoter in Gemcitabine-resistant A549/Gem and NCI-H460/Gem cell lines].
To assay the expression of cytidine deaminase (CDA), ribonucleotide reductase subunit 1 (RRM1), phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted from chromosome 10 (PTEN), excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1), deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) and RRM1(-)37A/C polymorphism, which have been shown relevant to gemcitabine resistance in two human gemcitabine-resistant non-small cell lung cancer cell lines A549/Gem and NCI-H460/Gem, so as to make clear how do they vary during the course of acquiring resistance to gemcitabine. ⋯ Compared with their parental cells, the expressions of CDA, RRM1, PTEN and ERCC1 in human gemcitabine-resistant non-small cell lung cancer cell lines A549/Gem and NCI-H460/Gem rise, the expression of dCK changes inapparently, therefore, their gene type are remaining wild type.

[Clinical value of prostate specific antigen screening in early detection of prostate cancer].
To evaluate the clinical significance of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening in early detection of prostate cancer in Chinese men. ⋯ Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening is useful for early detection of prostate cancer in Chinese men aged > or = 50 years. The patients detected by PSA screening usually show a lower PSA level, Gleason scores and early clinical stage disease, and have more chance for radical prostatectomy than the clinically diagnosed patients.
