The technique of chimeric antigen receptor-engineered T cells (CAR-T) is combined single chain antibody and T-cell activation modification and has specific and durable killing effect on tumors.It had achieved stunning results on clinical trials of B lymphocytic leukemias,B lymphomas and solid tumors.Meanwhile it also had potential risk on the off target effects,cytokine release syndrome,graft versus host disease and so on.This paper briefly reviews the principal of CAR-T cellular mechanism,advantages and clinical applications.

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), an important target for tumor targeted therapy, is overexpressed / mutated in the majority of tumors. Immune cells modified by chimeric antigen receptor , including T cells, NK cells and so on, is a new technology in recent years, which has showed an unique advantage in the treatment of malignant tumors. In this paper, the research progress of T cells and NK cells modified with chimeric antigen targeting for EGFR and its mutants will be reviewed.

Objective To investigate the acoustic characteristics of snoring sound in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and with simple snoring. Methods 22 patients with OSAHS and 15 with simple snoring were included in this study. Natural overnight snoring was digitally recorded and portable sleep mo-nitoring was performed simultaneously. 10 snores, which were the 1st snores after 10 cycles of obstructive apnea, from each patient in OSAHS group, and 10 snores from each patient in simple snoring group were analyzed in the time and frequency domains. Results The sound waves of snoring in the two groups exhibited different patterns both in the time and frequency domains. The snoring spectrum of patients with simple snoring showed distinct fun-damental- harmonic structures which were not clear in patients with OSAHS. The central frequency of the patients with OSAHS was higher, and 800 Hz power ratio was lower than those of the patients with simple snoring. In the OSAHS group, the central frequency of the patients with moderate-to-severe OSAHS was higher, and 800 Hz power ratio was lower than those of the patients with mild OSAHS. The differences of the two parameters were of statistical significance. Conclusion The snoring sounds in patients with OSAHS and with simple snoring have dif-ferent characteristics in time and frequency domains, indicating that it is feasible to research the OSAHS by way of snore monitoring and analyzing technique.

Objective To investigate whether TG2 plays an important role in the osteoblast differentiation and mineralization.Methods TG2 mRNA of SaOS-2 cells was knocked down using a lentivirus stably expressing short-hairpin ( sh) RNA targeting TG2.Then the cells were cultured in osteo-inductive medium for 14 d to measure mineralization and for 7 d to measure the levels of osteoblastic differentiation markers including ALP activity and mRNA of collagen I, osteocalcin ( OCN) and BMP-2.The wild-type SaOS-2 cells and scrambled shRNA-transducted SaOS-2 cells served as the controls. Results The controls displayed an increasing trend of the level of ALP activity and mRNA of collagen I, osteocalcin and BMP-2,and notable mineralization at 14 d.When TG2 was knocked down, ALP activity, mRNA of collagen I, osteocalcin and BMP-2 at 7d,and mineralization at 14 d were all significantly lower in comparison with the corresponding values in the controls.Conclusion TG2 is involved in the differentiation and mineralization of osteoblasts in vitro.

Objective To investigate the efficiency of closed tracheal suction system (CTSS) using novel splash-proof ventilator circuit component on ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and the colonization of multiple-drug resistant bacteria (MDR) in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation (MV) prevention.Methods A prospective single-blinded randomized parallel controlled intervention study was conducted. 330 severe patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of the First Hospital of Jiaxing from January 2014 to May 2016 were enrolled, and they were divided into open tracheal suction group, closed tracheal suction group, and splash-proof suction group on average by random number table. The patients in the three groups used conventional ventilator circuit component, conventional CTSS, and CTSS with a novel splash-proof ventilatorcircuit component for MV and sputum suction, respectively. The incidence of VAP, airway bacterial colonization rate, MDR and fungi colonization rate, duration of MV, length of ICU and hospitalization stay, and financial expenditure during hospitalization, as well as the in-hospital prognosis were recorded.Results After excluding patients who did not meet the inclusion criteria, incomplete data, backed out and so on, 318 patients were enrolled in the analysis finally. Compared with the open tracheal suction group, the total incidence of VAP was decreased in the closed tracheal suction group and splash-proof suction group [20.95% (22/105),21.90% (23/105) vs. 29.63% (32/108)], but no statistical difference was found (both P > 0.05), and the incidence of VAP infections/1000 MV days showed the same change tendency (cases: 14.56, 17.35 vs. 23.07). The rate of airway bacterial colonization and the rate of MDR colonization in the open tracheal suction group and splash-proof suction group were remarkably lower than those of closed tracheal suction group [32.41% (35/108), 28.57% (30/105) vs. 46.67% (49/105), 20.37% (22/108), 15.24% (16/105) vs. 39.05% (41/105)] with significantly statistical differences (allP < 0.05). Besides, no significantly statistical difference was found in the fungi colonization rate among open tracheal group, closed tracheal group, and splash-proof suction group (4.63%, 3.81% and 6.67%, respectively,P > 0.05). Compared with theclosed tracheal suction group, the duration of MV, the length of ICU and hospitalization stay were shortened in the open tracheal suction group and splash-proof suction group [duration of MV (days): 8.00 (4.00, 13.75), 8.00 (5.00, 13.00) vs. 9.00 (5.00, 16.00); the length of ICU stay (days): 10.00 (6.00, 16.00), 11.00 (7.00, 19.00) vs. 13.00 (7.50, 22.00); the length of hospitalization stay (days): 16.50 (9.25, 32.00), 19.00 (10.50, 32.50) vs. 21.00 (10.00, 36.00)], and financial expenditure during hospitalization was lowered [10 thousand Yuan: 4.95 (3.13, 8.62), 5.47 (3.84, 9.41) vs. 6.52 (3.99, 11.02)] without significantly statistical differences (allP > 0.05). Moreover, no significantly statistical difference was found in the in-hospital prognosis among the three groups.ConclusionsCTSS performed using novel splash-proof ventilator circuit component shared similar advantages in preventing VAP with the conventional CTSS. Meanwhile, it is superior because it prevented the colonization of MDR and high price in the conventional CTSS.Clinical Trail Registration Chinese Clinical Trial Registry, ChiCTR-IOR-16009694.

Objective To investigate the effects and mechanism of prone ventilation in rats with lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced extra pulmonary acute lung injury(ALI). Methods Thirty-two male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into four groups:control group,ALI group,supine position group(ALIS group)and prone position group(ALIP group). The ALI animal model was reproduced by intra-peritoneal injection of LPS 6 mg/kg,and 2 mL/kg sterile saline was intra-peritoneally injected in control group. After 24 hours,the ALIS group and ALIP group were mechanically ventilated for 4 hours in supine and prone positions respectively. Arterial partial pressure of oxygen(PaO2),carbon dioxide partial pressure(PaCO2),wet to dry weight ratio of lung(W/D) were observed,and the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukins(IL-6,IL-10)in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were measured. The degrees of histopathological changes of lung were investigated and assessed under light microscope. Results Compared with control group,PaO2 was significantly lower in ALI,ALIS and ALIP groups〔mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa):68±7,82±8,93±7 vs. 116±7〕,and the PaCO2 in ALI and ALIS groups was obviously higher(mmHg:53±6,51±5 vs. 43±7,both P<0.05);lung W/D ratio as well as levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-10 in BALF were significantly higher in ALI,ALIS and ALIP groups〔lung W/D ratio:5.11±0.32, 4.71±0.38,4.53±0.45 vs. 4.48±0.15,TNF-α(ng/L):548±82,431±64,347±53 vs. 162±16,IL-6(ng/L):772±119,587±178,490±139 vs. 127±16,IL-10(ng/L):211±43,295±36,352±59 vs. 104±31,all P<0.05〕. Compared with ALI group,PaO2 in ALIS and ALIP groups was significantly higher,and in ALIP group,PaCO2 was lower,lung W/D ratio,TNF-α and IL-6 in BALF were obviously lower,while IL-10 in BALF was obviously higher(all P<0.05). Compared with ALIS group,the changes in ALIP group were more significant(all P<0.05). Compared with ALIS group,under light microscope,it was shown that the hyper-inflated areas were less,normal and collapsed areas were greater on the ventral side,and the collapsed area was less and the normal ventilation area was greater on the dorsal side in ALIP group(all P<0.05). Conclusion In rats with LPS-induced extra pulmonary ALI,the prone ventilation can improve gas exchange,promote uniform distribution of ventilation,decrease pulmonary edema and in the mean time attenuate inflammatory response.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the treatment efifcacy of the treatment promotion of standardized management for chil-dren with asthma.MethodsMedical records of 150 children with asthma were reviewed and divided into management group or control group according to whether standardized management was accepted. Comprehensive asthma education for asthma pa-tients and their parents including asthma associated basic knowledge education, health education as well as follow-ups at deifned intervals was conducted in 78 cases. In the meantime, standardized asthma therapies were performed. Control group involved 72 cases who did not receive asthma education managements and only accepted regular clinical therapies. After 1-year observational follow-up, , clinical efifcacy of children with asthma, changes of knowledge-attitude-practice of parents, and compliance of med-ication were compared between the two groups.ResultsAfter promotion of standardized managements treatment, asthma con-trol rates in the management group were signiifcantly higher than that of the control group(χ2=54.68,P<0.01); In addition, the rate of asthma attacks, emergency visits as well as hospitalizations were obviously reduced in the management group than control group (both withP<0.01). Knowledge associated with asthma, therapy and management executions as well as knowledge-atti-tude-practice of parents also demonstrated apparent elevations in the management group (P<0.01); At the same time, management group has illustrated superior medication compliance over the control group (χ2=66.27,P<0.01).ConclusionPromotion of standardized treatment management among children with asthma can help to achieve effective control by raising levels of knowl-edge-attitude-practice of the parents as well as the patient’s compliance to the treatment.

Objective To evaluate the intraoperative advantage and short-term outcomes of three-dimensional laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer.Methods The clinical data of patients who underwent radical resection for rectal cancer at Department of Colorectal Surgery,China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University from November 2013 to February 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 20 patients undergoing three-dimensional laparoscopic surgery and 26 patients undergoing two-dimensional laparoscopic surgery.The following parameters were compared between the two groups:intraoperative factors,oncologic outcomes,and short-term surgical outcomes.Data were analyzed by SPSS 17.0 software packet,using t and x2 inspection.Results All the operations were perfomed successfully without conversion.Compared with the two-dimensional laparoscopic surgery group,the three-dimensional laparoscopic surgery group had shorter operative time [(97.2 ± 19.3) vs.(114.1 ± 22.6) min,t =2.680,P =0.010],less intraoperative blood loss [(13.5 ± 6.7) vs.(20.1 ± 12.7) ml,t =2.288,P =0.028],less stapler docking times [(1.4 ± 0.6) vs.(2.3 ± 0.8) number of times,t =4.962,P =0.000],earlier removal of urethral catheter [(2.2± 0.6) vs.(2.7 ± 0.8) d,t =2.401,P =0.021].There were no significant differences in the postoperative ventilation time,postoperative hospital stay,number of lymph node dissection (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Three-dimensional laparoscopic compared with two-dimensional laparoscopic radical resection for rectal cancer has many advantages,such as shorter operative time,less intraopretive blood loss,high accuracy operation and earlier postoperative urine voiding.
