Chinese Journal of Radiology 2011;45(12):1203-1206
ObjectiveTo evaluate characteristic imaging findings of tumor attenuation in 4-phase CT between renal oncocytoma ( RO ) and clear-cell renal ceil carcinoma ( ccRCC ) of small tumor size (≤Scm).Methods Fifty-six patients with histologically confirmed renal masses (11ROs and 45 ccRCCs) were included in this study.Heterogeneous enhancement was found all tumors during the corticomedullary phase (CMP).The CT values of the normal renal cortex,the relatively high enhanced region and the relatively less-enhanced region of the tumor were measured in each phase.Statistical comparison was carried out by Chi-square test or Mann-Whitney test.ResultsIn CMP,the CT value of the relatively high enhanced region in RO [ 163.0 HU ( 141.0—178.0 HU) ] was significantly lower than that in ccRCC [ 194.0 HU ( 166.5—235.0 HU) ; Z = -2.847,P =0.004].Compared CMP with the excretory phase,the attenuation of the relatively highly enhanced region in RO [70.0 HU (41.0—86.0 HU)] were significantly lower than that in ccRCC [87.0 HU (65.0—126.5 HU) ] (Z= -2.032,P =0.042).In the excretory phase,9 of 11 ROs had a further enhancement with its relatively less-enhanced region which was significantly higher than that in ccRCC (21/45 ; x2 = 4.391,P = 0.036).ConclusionsIn CMP,the CT value of the relatively high enhanced region in RO was significantly lower than that in ccRCC.Compared with ccRCC,in the excretory phase,the RO had less attenuation of the relatively highly enhanced region with homogeneous density.
4.MiRNA and non-small cell lung cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2012;39(4):282-285
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs which involve in the regulation after gene transplantation.Researches show that miRNA is closely related to the development and progression of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).They caused a significantly change in NSCLC cells through downregulate tumor suppressor gene,or act as oncogene or work on some targets which is important in cell signal pathway,in the end it lead to oncogenesis,cell proliferation,cell apoptosis and resistance to chemotherapy or radiotherapy.Therefore,miRNA will be hopefully used in the diagnose and therapy of cancer.

Chinese Journal of Biochemical Pharmaceutics 2014;(2):71-73
Objective To compare the clinical intravenous anesthesia effect of sufentanil and remifentanil respectively, in order to provide data support for future clinical practice. Methods 91 surgery patients from February 2013 to October 2013 were selected and randomly divided into 2 groups, the one is sufentanil group (group A), and the other is remifentanil group(group B). The change of hemodynamic indexes, catecholamine concentration and woke up time after surgery in two groups were monitored and compared. Results Compared with T 0, levels of SP, DP, HR in two groups were signiifcantly lower (P<0.05), at the moment of T 2, the levels of SP, DP, HR level got signiifcantly higher(P<0.05), even surpass T 0(P<0.05). And the range of the rise in group A was signiifcant than that in group B(P<0.05).Epinephrine and norepinephrine of group A in T 2 and T 6, were higher than T 0 (P<0.05). The spontaneous breathing recovery time was, (5.2±1.9)min, open eyes’time, (7.2±2.0) min, and conscious time was(14.6±2.3)min in group B, which were lower than that of group A(t=14.382, 14.934, 14.382, P<0.01).There were no adverse reactions in both groups. Conclusion Remifentanil has good anesthetic effect, postoperative patients wake up soon, self breathing early. The change of hemodynamic index and catecholamine index are stable and beneifcial to internal environment balance.

8.A review of international clinical trial registration
Journal of Integrative Medicine 2007;5(3):234-42
Clinical trials play a critical role in medical research. However, only a few clinical trials conducted at present have been registered at various clinical trial registries. Clinical trial registration can prevent bias in these registered trials effectively and avoid unnecessary waste of resources due to meaningless repeats. Moreover, it will benefit the development of evidence-based medicine, and promote human welfare. Great attention has been paid to the importance and necessity of clinical trial registration. This review briefly introduced the definition, justification, contents, history, current status of clinical trial registration, and introduced the information regarding important international clinical trial registries in detail. Clinical trial registration should be developed toward a transparent, compulsory and comprehensive stage.
9.New progress of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the treatment of multiple myeloma
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2013;(40):7125-7131
BACKGROUND:Autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation is an effective treatment for multiple myeloma. After chemotherapy, autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation becomes a standard therapeutic regimen for multipla myeloma, and numerous units and centers have reported that. How to reduce toxic and adverse reactions of the drugs, transplantation-related complications and improvement of long-term survival have been present foci.
OBJECTIVE:To summarize the new progress of autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation in the treatment of multiple myeloma.
METHODS:We retrieved PubMed and China National Knowledge Infrastructure database, Vip database, Wanfang database, free medicaljournals.com source for articles published from January 2006 to November 2012 concerning autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation in the treatment of multiple myeloma. The key words were“autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation, multiple myeloma”. A total of 46 articles were included.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Large-dose chemotherapy combined with autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation for multiple myeloma obtained better outcomes compared with the traditional chemotherapy. However, many patients could not relieve after single autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation, and the disease recurred final y. Al ogeneic hematopoietic stem celltransplantation was limited by donor source, and treatment-associated fatality rate was high, so its use was confined. Therefore, present new development direction included twice autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation, autologous transplantation combined with al ogeneic transplantation with reduced-intensity conditioning regimens as wel as drug on the basis of single autologous hematopoietic stem celltransplantation. Novel drug proteasomes inhibitor and immunomodulator in inducer remission, pretreatment and sustaining stages obviously improved total reaction rate of multiple myeloma therapy and long-term survival.
