Objective To observe the effect of Shenmai injection combined concurrent chemoradiotherapy on immune function in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer.Methods A total of 80 patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer were randomly divided into treatment group and control group.In treatment group,40 patients received simultaneous three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy combined with TP(docetaxel+cisplatin)chemotherapy,while given Shenmai injection in the process of concurrent chemoradiotherapy.In control group,40 patients only received chemoradiotherapy.The changes of T cell subsets were observed between the two groups.Results It showed no significant differences in percentages of CD+3,CD+4,CD+16CD+56and CD+4/CD+8 ratio between two groups pre-treatment(all P>0.05).There were no significant adverse reactions occurred after received Shenmai injection in treatment group.Conclusion It play an important role in improving immune function of patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer who received Shenmai injection combined concurrent chemoradiotherapy.

Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is a means of playing the systemic organ protective effect by transient ischemia/reperfusion of the limb,thus reduces the damage caused by more severe ischemic events.RIC can be applied before,during and after ischemic events;among them,the application before ische-mia is relatively more,which is called the remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC).Researches have shown that RIC has considerable clinical translation value characterizing by non-invasion,economy,safety and effect. Although the specific mechanism needs to continue to be explored,but its protective targets are quite exten-sive.Especially for the heart,RIC seems to have favorable protective effects on the heart under almost all pathological conditions.Moreover,RIC has a certain degree of protective effect on the nervous system,lungs,livers and kidneys.Based on this,this article reviews the protective effects of RIC in different organs and its possible mechanisms.
