Objective To evaluate the efficacy of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) and angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis through the method of system evaluation. Methods A computer-based online search of Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, CBM and Wanfang were used for database retrieval. Revman 5.0 was used to assess the bias of the included studies. The Stata 14.0 was used to evaluate the extraction indexes of efficacy, p (O2), p (CO2), DLco, FEV1 and VC. GRADE score was used to evaluate the level of evidence. Results A total of 17 articles (related with 1381 patients) were included in this study, including 14 studies using ARB and 3 studies using ACEI. Compared with the control group ACEI and ARB drugs showed advantages in the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis (RR=1.34, 95%CI:1.24-1.44, Z=7.81, P<0.001). Auxiliary index analysis showed that the test groups were treated with enalapril (SMD=0.72, 95%CI:0.21-1.22, Z=2.77, P=0.006), telmisartan (SMD=3.86, 95%CI:2.44-5.27, Z=5.35, P<0.001), valsartan (SMD=1.94, 95%CI:1.33-2.55, Z=6.27, P<0.001) and captopril (SMD=0.60, 95%CI:0.11-1.09, Z=2.41, P=0.016), the p(O2) levels were significantly improved in patients ≥65 years old (SMD=0.76, 95%CI:0.52-1.00, Z=6.18, P<0.001) and patients < 65 years old (SMD=3.97, 95%CI:2.61-5.32, Z=5.73, P<0.001), and disease duration≥5 years (SMD=1.39, 95%CI:0.45-2.33, Z=2.89, P=0.004) and disease duration<5 years (SMD=3.26, 95%CI:2.06-4.46, Z=5.34, P<0.001) compared with those of control group (SMD=2.95, 95%CI:1.95-3.94, Z=5.82, P<0.001). The curative effect of telmisartan was better than that of other drug groups (P < 0.001), and which was much better for patients under 65 years old (P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the disease duration between two groups (P=0.307). The p (CO2) levels were significantly improved in patients treated with telmisartan [SMD=-12.94,95%CI:(-14.01)-(-11.86),Z=23.51,P<0.001), valsartan [SMD=-1.95,95%CI:(-2.56)-(-1.34),Z=6.29,P<0.001] compared with those of control group [SMD=-11.13,95%CI:(-17.03)-(-5.24),Z=3.70,P<0.001]. The effect of telmisartan was better than that of valsartan (P<0.001). In addition, values of DLco (SMD=0.64, 95%CI:0.45-0.83, Z=6.72, P<0.001), FEV1 (SMD=1.19, 95%CI:0.52-1.86, Z=3.47, P<0.001) and VC (SMD=0.51, 95%CI:0.16-0.85, Z=2.85, P=0.004) were improved in test group compare with those of control group. And the GRADE scores of relevant indexes were low quality to moderate quality. Conclusion ACEI and ARB can improve the efficacy, the p (O2) and p (CO2) in the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis. Patients with age<65 years old and treated with telmisartan have the best curative effect, and which is not related to the disease duration.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the correlation between number of tissue eosinophils(Eos) and blood Eos levels in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps(CRSwNP), and to investigate if tissue and blood eosinophilia predicts disease severity and prognosis in CRSwNP. METHODS A retrospective analysis of 102 patients, who diagnosed with CRSwNP was carried out in this study. Surgical specimens were evaluated for degree of tissue Eos, which was compared with blood Eos. Patients were divided into two groups according to the results of endoscopy one year after surgery: recurrent and non-recurrent group. Statistical analysis was performed to compare tissue and blood Eos and CT Lund-Mackay scores. RESULTS Blood and tissue Eos in recurrent group was significantly higher than that in non-recurrent group(P=0.032, 0.033, 0.017). There was not a statistical difference of CT scores between two groups(P =0.089). There was a significant correlation between tissue Eos and absolute number of blood Eos(r=0.637, P=0.000) as well as between tissue Eos and percentage of blood Eos(r=0.542, P=0.000). However Eos and CT scores were not correlated statistically(P>0.05). CONCLUSION Blood Eos levels can predict the degree of Eos infiltration in nasal polyps. Blood and tissue Eos correlate with prognosis.

Objective The frequency and the anatomic distribution of involved regional nodes in recurrent and locally advanced breast cancer were analyzed, in order to evaluate the rational of conventional regional node radiation technique and provide evidence for target definition of breast cancer . Methods Patients with recurrent or locally advanced breast cancer who were treated in our hospital from August 2003 to December 2009 were included in this study. 111 patients had contrast enhanced chest CT images of the whole regional nodes before treatment. The regional nodes were categorized into 8 anatomical substructures including medial and lateral supraclavicular nodes ( SC-M, SC-L), axilla nodes ( ALN )- Ⅰ , Ⅱ , Ⅲ,infraclavicular nodes (IFN), Rotter's nodes (RN) and internal mammary nodes (IMN). The frequency of involvement and anatomical distribution of the involved nodes on CT images were analyzed. Results A total of 111 patients were enrolled this study and 199 anatomical substructures with involved nodes were identified. The frequency of involvement were :SC-M 33, SC-L 21, ALN- Ⅰ 30, ALN-Ⅱ 25, ALN-Ⅲ + IFN 35, RN 27, IMN 28. Supraclavicular region and axilla were the most frequently involved area (72. 3% ).The average depth of the SC-M and SC-L nodes was 33.48 mm ± 10. 57 mm and 45.62 mm ±20. 45 mm,and 51.5% and 71.4% of the SC-M and SC-L nodes were located more than 3 cm deep from the skin. The axilla nodes were located cranial and caudal to the axillary vein in 5 and 20 locally advanced breast cancer patients and in 64 and 28 patients who received prior axillary dissection. The majority of involved IMN was located within the first 3 intercostal spaces (26/28). The average distance between the center of involved IMN and chest skin was 24. 23 mm ± 10. 28 mm. The average distance between the center of involved IMN and midline of the body was 29. 38 mm ±6. 7 mm. The center of involved IMN was 6.19 mm ±5.73 mm lateral and 5.73 mm ± 4. 56 mm posterior to the internal mammary vessels. Conclusions Conventional field design is unlikely to provide sufficient dose to the entire risk region because of individual differences.Individualized treatment planning based on CT would become feasible with increasing knowledge of natural risk of nodal involvement.

Objective To investigate the distribution of pelvic recurrence in rectal cancer after radical resection and analyze the outcome and prognostic factors of pelvic recurrent rectal cancer treated with radiotherapy. Methods Ninety-three patients with pelvic recurrent rectal cancer who received radiotherapy from August 2000 to August 2006 were retrospectively analyzed. Of them, 21 patients received pelvic radiation alone;56 received pelvic radiation plus chemotherapy and 16 received pelvic radiation plus surgery and/or chemotherapy. Radiotherapy was delivered with 60Coγor 6/15 MV X ray to a median dose of 59. 4Gy (range,20-74 Gy). Conventional fractionation was used in 90 patients. Chemotherapy was given to 68patients with a median number of 3 cycles ( range, 1 - 8 cycles). Concurrent chemo-radiation with 5-FU based regimen was given to 42 patients. After radiotherapy, 16 patients underwent surgical resection, with 7R0 resection and 9 palliative resection. Results The entire cohort included 132 recurrent sites. The most common recurrent sites were peri-rectal region ( 31.8% ), pre-sacral region ( 30. 3% ) and internal iliac nodal region (20. 2% ). The follow-up rate was 92% for the entire cohort, 39 and 4 patients had minimum follow-up time of 2 and 5 years respectively. Overall clinical response ( complete and partial symptomatic relief) was achieved in 83% of the patients after radiation therapy. The 2-and 5-year local progression-free survival rates were 49% and 22% respectively, and the 2-and 5-year overall survival rates were 46% and 14% respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that treatment modality was the independent prognostic factor for local progression-free survival. Patients treated with radiation plus surgery and/or chemotherapy had better local progression-free survival than those treated with radiation plus chemotherapy or radiation alone.Recurrent tumors larger than 5 cm in diameter, disease-free interval less than 2 years and distant metastasis after radiotherapy were independent unfavorable prognostic factors for overall survival. Conclusions Perirectal region, pre-sacral region and internal iliac nodal region were the most common pelvic recurrent sites in rectal cancer. Radiotherapy is an effective palliative approach for patients with pelvic recurrent rectal cancer.Radiotherapy plus surgery and/or chemotherapy was associated with better local progression-free survival,and recurrent tumors lager than 5 cm in diameter, disease-free interval less than 2 years and distant metastasis after radiotherapy were unfavorable prognostic factors for overall survival of pelvic recurrent rectal caner.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of using anastomotic stoma as a long-term vascular access to maintain hemodialysis in patients who cannot establish an effective vascular access after ACUSEAL graft occlusion.Methods:A rare case of brachial artery-right atrium ACUSEAL artificial blood vessel fistula bypass to establish vascular access occlusion, the use of artificial blood vessel anastomosis stoma to establish buttonhole puncture as a long-term vascular access and the corresponding nursing methods.Results:At present, the patients were treated with regular dialysis for 32 months and blunt needle puncture for 23 months.Conclusions:Brachial artery-right atrium ACUSEAL graft is a rare vascular access surgery. As a new type of access with depleted autologous vascular resources, the efficacy is not certain. Because it is different from the traditional vascular prosthesis surgery, once the thrombotic occlusion of the graft fails, the risk and difficulty of reopening by interventional or surgical methods are great. Therefore, it is a challenging and reasonable method to use the limited residual cavity of the anastomosis as a long-term vascular access after occlusion to prolong the service life of the graft.

Objective To determine the change of tumor bed volume during whole breast irradiation by repeated computed tomography scanning and to analyze the dosimetric impact of boost-planning on different CT images. Methods From July 2008 to Jan 2009, sixteen patients with early-stage breast cancer underwent breast conservative surgery (BCS) were enrolled in the study. All patients received whole breast irradiation and tumor bed boost, no adjuvant chemotherapy was given. Two additional CT scans were acquired in addition to the planning CT ( CT1 ), one in the course of radiotherapy ( CT2 ) and the other before the boost (CT3). Tumor beds were contoured in all CT images. Three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy planning for tumor bed boost was done on CT1 and CT3 respectively. Results The mean tumor bed volume on CT1, CT2 and CT3 were 49.5 cm3, 25.6 cm3 and 22. 2 cm3 ( F = 5. 63, P = 0. 007 ),respectively. Further analysis found statistically significant difference between CT1 and CT2 ( q = 0. 03, P =0. 010), CT1 and CT3 ( q = 0. 01, P = 0. 004), but not between CT2 and CT3 ( q = 1.00, P = 0. 333 ). The average reduction of tumor bed volume from CT1 to CT3 was 43.4%. A reduction of 20% or above was found in 88% of the patients ( n = 14), 50% or above in 38% of the patients (n = 6). In the boost-planning, the volume of the ipsilateral breast receiving 100% prescribed dose (V100%) on CT1 and CT3 was 183.5 cm3 and 144. 5 cm3, respectively ( t = 3.06, P = 0. 008 ). Conclusions Volume of tumor bed is dynamically reduced in the course of whole breast irradiation after BCS, with more important reduction in the early weeks after the beginning of irradiation. A second CT scan before tumor bed boost is warranted.
