The latest results from the FLEX trial wag presented in ASCO annual meeting which was hold in June.2008 in Chicago.The study demonstrated that chemotherapy based on Cetuximab plus Cisplatin significantly increased the overall survival of NSCLC patients,including all histological subtypes.The new findings confirm that Erbitux is the first targeted thempy to show a significant survival benefit in NSCLC patients across all histological subtypes.

Objective:To observe the effect of hepatic function in hyperthyroidism patients with serum levels of hyaluronic acid(HA),laminin,type Ⅲ procollagen peptide and type IV collagen.Methods:We measured them in 140 patients with Graves' disease and 33 healthy subjects by radioimmunoassay.Graves' disease patients were divided into two groups,one including 59 patients with primary diagnosis and not treated with antithyroid drug(ATD),the other group including 81 patients were once treated with ATD.Results:HA concentration was significantly higher( P

s To some extent, liberal education is a kind of cultivation. In essence, cultivation and purification are two of the ways of the transformation of human beings, each with its own doctrine and the subsequent applicability. A comparative research between cultivation and purification is made in the article. Based upon the demarcation between the two categories, the author has expounded his own understanding on the idea of the Confucian cultivation in the context of the liberal education in current Chinese university.

Education is social activities that aim to directly impact the physical and mental development of person.And its core value is talent civilization.Generally,universities and colleges have three basic functions,among which cultivating talents is the most fundamental task.Teachers are the professional personnel who carry out the duties of education,and their mission is teaching and cultivating.But there are many unsuitable factors that have been limiting the realization of the mission of universities and colleges.The steps should be taken from thoughts,concepts,regulations and surroundings to make the teachers play dominant roles in the process of teaching and cultivating.

Objective To evaluate operation and chemotherapy in patients with stage Ⅱ testicular seminoma. Methods Forty-four patients with stage Ⅱ testicular seminoma collected from February 1993 to August 2007 were treated with cisplatin-based chemotherapy with repeated course. The retroperitoneal lymph node in ten patients were resected and two patients operated after chemotherapy. Results Resected tissue in eight patients after chemotherapy were necrosis and fibrosis, two patients were viable cancer. All patients were followed up for two to eight years. Five year survival rate was stage ⅡA 100 %(11/11), stage ⅡB 91.67 % (22124), stage Ⅱc 77.78 %(7/9). Conclusion For raising survival rate and controlling disease development of the patients who suffered from stage Ⅱ testieular seminoma,the repeated courses of chemotherapy should be given as early as possible.

The configuration of the air cleaner and operating principle of high-voltage static electrical field (HVEF) are introduced. The primary bactericidal mechanism and broad-spectrum effect are also mentioned.

Objective To compare the clinical effect of craniotomy versus sphenotresia drainage for treatment pa?tients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage. Methods Retrospective analysis the patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage in our hospital, and divided into the group of craniotomy(n=39) and the group of sphenotresia drainage(n=50). The operating time, hematoma clearance rate, complications after operation and intracranial pressure at 4h, 24h, 48h, 72h, 5d and 7d after operation between the two groups were record. Results The intracranial pressure in both groups are raised gradually in the 48 h after surgery and gradually declined at 48 h after surgery. The increasing amplitude in craniotomy group is less than the group of sphenotresia drainage. Between the two groups of group, different point, and between groups and the interaction of the different point difference had statistical significance (P<0.05). The hematoma clearance rate in the group of craniotomy is less than the group of sphenotresia drainage. However, the operating time and the infection rates in the group of craniotomy is greater than the group of sphenotresia drainage, the difference is statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Craniotomy can increase the hematoma clearance rate, decrease intracranial pressure as well as the oc?currence of rehaemorrhagia, however, it also will prolong operation time and increase the risk of lung infection and gastro?intestinal bleeding. It is depend on the general characteristic of patients to determine which operation methods to adopt.

Headache is a common clinical symptom.Some headache disorders belong to secondary category.Many intracranial disorders,such as head trauma,cerebral vascular diseases,intracranial tumors and inflammation,can lead to headache due to mass effect,inflammation reaction,stimulation of vasoactive substances and decreased intracranial pressure.Furthermore,many drugs and other substances,disorders of eyes,nose,ear,mouth,neck and other systemic disorders can also cause headache.Many headache disorders can be determined by detailed case history and physical examination.Blood test,lumber puncture,CT,MRI and other imaging examinations are necessary methods for finding the causes and the treatment of diseases.

Objective To observe the effect of the first iodine-131 ablation of thyroid remnants in pa-tients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) and discuss factors that may be influential in the treatment. Meth-ods All DTC patients confirmed by pathology received iodine-131 therapy after necessary preparation. Accord-ing different operation procedures, time interval between operation and iodine-131 treatment and dose of iodine - 131, the patients were divided into different groups. Therapy effects were observed in different groups. Results Ablation successful rate was 88.5% in total thyroidectomy group, compared with 44.4% in subtotal thyroidecto-my group. 92.7% ablation rate was seen in the group of I-2 months time interval between operation and iodine - 131 treatment, while in the group of over 1 year time interval, only 50% ablationrate was achieved. Ablation successful rate was 47.6% in the group of low dose of iodine-131 (2.96GBq), compared with 82.8% in the high dose group (4.44GBq). Conclusions Total thyroidectomy and cervical lymph nodes dissection should be recommended for the patients with DTC. The better interval time between operation and iodine-131 ablation thy-roid remnants is 1～2 months. The high dose of iodine-131 shows better result than low dose of iodine-131 treatment.

Restenosis is a major complication after percutaneous transluminal coronary intervention. Evaluation of restenosis early and accurately can help to giude treatment, improve outcome and save costs for the patients. All kinds of imaging methods for restenosis have their merits and demerits. It is essential to choose the appropriate imaging method in clinical practice.
