Objective:To develop a reflection-type blood oxygen monitor module can transmit message by a new wireless sensor and be used as a terminal monitoring node in wearable devices.Methods: The blood oxygen algorithm is mathematically analyzed by Lambert Beer law; the terminal schematic diagram of hardware, drive circuit, transimpedance amplifier and filter circuit of sensor NJL5501R are analyzed and designed to use in the module; the software process and algorithm implementation is described by special software; the Fluke INDEX2XLF is used to simulate blood oxygen saturation and determine the Q value and then to establish relevant relationship between blood oxygen saturation and Q value.Results: The module can collect blood oxygen data and transmit them by wireless method. And detection result error was less than 2% when this module was compared with the MINDRAY IPM10.Conclusion: The module achieves the expected effect although it still need be improved in some aspects, such as anti movement interference, miniaturization design and low power consumption.

Objective To retrospectively investigate the impact of postoperative radiotherapy ( RT) on the relationship between molecular subtype and survival in patients with breast cancer ( BC ) . Methods A total of 716 women who were admitted to our hospital in 2008 and newly received unilateral mastectomy were divided into Luminal A ( LA ) , Luminal B?HER?2?negative ( LB1 ) , Luminal B?HER?2?positive ( LB2) , HER?2 overexpression ( HER?2+) , triple?negative ( TN) , and unassigned subtypes according to the 2011 St. Gallen Consensus. The Cox model was used to analyze the differences in overall survival ( OS) and disease?free survival ( DFS ) rates between subtypes in all patients, RT group, or non?RT group. The Kaplan?Meier method was used to calculate OS and DFS rates. The Cox model was used to perform the factor analysis. Results In all patients, the median follow?up time was 71?4 months;the overall mortality rate was 10?5%;the incidence of treatment failure ( death+relapse+metastasis) was 14?9%;217 patients ( 30?3%) received RT. The multivariate analysis showed that there was no significant difference in OS between subtypes in any group ( all P>0?05 ) . In all patients, patients with LB1 subtype or unassigned subtype had significantly poorer DFS rates than those with LA subtype ( HR= 1?881, P= 0?035;HR= 1?907, P=0?049) . In the non?RT group, patients with LB1 subtype had significantly poorer DFS rates than those with LA subtype (HR=3?324, P=0?01). In the RT group, there was no significant difference in DFS rate between subtypes ( all P>0?05) . The two?dimensional cross analyses of RT and subtype demonstrated that patients with LB1 subtype in the non?RT group had lower OS and DFS rates than patients with LA subtype in the RT group ( P=0?09,0?06) . Conclusions Patients with LB1 subtype have lower OS and DFS rates than patients with LA subtype, especially in the non?RT patients. RT has no impact on the relationship between subtype and prognosis.

Objective:To analyze the prognosis and influencing factors of patients with brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with different doses of whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT).Methods:A total of 244 NSCLC patients with brain metastases who underwent WBRT in the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from 2013 to 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. According to different doses of WBRT (EQD 2Gy), they were divided into the 30-39 Gy group ( n= 104) and ≥40 Gy group ( n= 140). The intracranial progression-free survival (iPFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared betweentwo groups. According to the number of brain metastases, GPA score, KPS score, chemotherapy and targeted therapy, the prognosis of different doses of WBRT was further analyzed. Results:The median iPFS and OS of all patients were 6.9 months and 11.8 months, respectively. Univariate survival analysis: the 1-year iPFS and 1-year OS between two groups were 22.5% and 25.4%( P=0.430) and 41.1% and 46.4%( P=0.068), respectively. Multivariate survival analysis: different doses of WBRT were not associated with the improvement of iPFS and OS; independent factors influencing iPFS included local boost, gender, number of brain metastases, chemotherapy and targeted therapy; independent factors influencing OS included gender, number of brain metastases, chemotherapy and targeted therapy. Subgroup analysis: in patients with KPS≥90, the 1-year iPFS and OS of patients with WBRT ≥ 40 Gy were seemingly better than those of their counterparts with 30-39 Gy, but the difference was statistically significant only in OS ( P=0.047), the difference was not statistically significant in iPFS ( P=0.068); in patients with chemotherapy, the 1-year iPFS and OS of patients with WBRT≥40 Gy were better than those of their counterparts with 30-39 Gy ( P=0.017, P=0.012); in patients with targeted therapy, the 1-year iPFS and OS in the WBRT≥40 Gy group were better than those in the 30-39 Gy group ( P=0.012, P=0.045). Conclusions:The 30-39 Gy may be the appropriate dose of WBRT for NSCLC patients with brain metastases. WBRT≥40 Gy does not bring more benefits. WBRT≥40 Gy may benefit NSCLC patients with brain metastases with high KPS score or active systemic therapy.

Objective:To analyze the prognosis and influencing factors of different radiotherapy modes in patients with brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and to explore the best benefit population with radiotherapy boost under different prognostic scores.Methods:634 patients with brain metastasis from NSCLC admitted to the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from 2013 to 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. According to different radiotherapy modes, they were divided into three groups: no radiotherapy group ( n=330), whole-brain radiotherapy group (WBRT)( n=127) and whole-brain radiotherapy combined with boost group (WBRT+ boost)( n=177). The intracranial progression-free survival (iPFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. The multivariate prognostic factors were analyzed by the Cox models. Results:The median iPFS and OS of all patients were 6.9 months and 9.0 months, respectively. In the no radiotherapy, WBRT and WBRT+ boost groups, the 1-year iPFS was 15.1%, 16.3% and 40.2%( P=0.002), and the 1-year OS was 33.7%, 38.2% and 48.1%( P<0.001), respectively. Multivariate survival analysis demonstrated that different radiotherapy modes were the independent factors affecting iPFS and OS. Subgroup analysis revealed that for patients with 1-3 brain metastases, the 1-year OS and iPFS in the WBRT+ boost group were better than those of WBRT alone ( P=0.026, P=0.044) when GPA score was 2.5-4.0; the 1-year OS and iPFSin the WBRT+ boost group were better than those of WBRT alone ( P=0.036, P=0.049) when there was no targeted therapy; for patients with ≥4 brain metastases, the 1-year iPFS in the WBRT+ boost group was better than that of WBRT alone ( P=0.019, P=0.012) when GPA score was 2.5-4.0 and there was no targeted therapy. When the GPA score was 0-2 or there was targeted therapy, the 1-year OS and iPFS in the WBRT+ boost group were better than those of WBRT alone, but the difference was not statistically significant (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Radiotherapy can significantly improve the iPFS and OS of NSCLC patients with brain metastases. When the number of brain metastases is 1-3, GPA score is 2.5-4.0 or no targeted therapy, boost may improve the iPFS and OS; when the number of brain metastases is more than 4, GPA score is 2.5-4.0 or no targeted therapy, boost may only bring iPFS benefit; when GPA score is 0-2 or targeted therapy, boost may not benefit significantly.
