1.Progress of research on non-small cell lung cancer stem cell
Journal of Peking University(Health Sciences) 2003;0(05):-
Non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)is now regarded as the most common cause of cancer-related mortality in China.Despite continuous efforts to improve the therapeutic response,the overall five-year survival rate for NSCLC is still less than 15%.Now we have known that the growth of neoplastic tumors is maintained exclusively by a small subpopulation called "cancer stem cells" which posseses ability of self-renew and differentiation.It has been widely accepted that cancer stem cells are chemoresistant and radioresistant.Therefore,a major challenge in treating this and other cancers is the intrinsic resistance to conventional therapies demonstrated by the stem/progenitor cell that is responsible for the sustained growth,survival,and invasion of the tumor.Identifying these stem cells in non-small cell lung cancer and defining the biologic processes necessary for their existence are paramount in developing new clinical approaches with the goal of preventing disease recurrence.This review summarizes our update understandings of the cellular and molecular mechanisms operating within the putative cancer-initiating cells at the core of non-small cell lung cancer.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of parecoxib preemptive analgesia combined with postoperative epidural analgesia on hip replacement and immune function. METHODS:Totally 86 patients undergoing unilateral hip replacement selected from Xining Third People's Hospital during Jan. 2014-Jun. 2016 were divided into observation group and control group according to random num-ber table,with 43 cases in each group. Two groups underwent unilateral hip replacement under spinal epidural anesthesia. Observation group was given Parecoxib sodium for injection 40 mg intravenously 30 min before the end of surgery. Control group was given con-stant volume of normal saline intravenously. Both groups were given epidural analgesia pump(Ropivacaine hydrochloride injection 150 mg+Ondansetron hydrochloride injection 16 mg+Dezocine injection 10 mg,added into normal saline to 100 mL)after surgery with dripping speed of 2 mL/h and patient-controlled time of 15 min. The hemodynamic indexes,analgesic effect,T lymphocyte subsets and NK cells levels were compared between 2 groups at different time points as well as the occurrence of ADR after surgery. RE-SULTS:Two patients of observation group and one patient of control group withdrew from the study. Before surgery,there was no sta-tistical significance in MAP and HR between 2 groups(P>0.05);12,24 h after surgery,MAP and HR of control group were signifi-cantly increased and higher than observation group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in MAP and HR of observation group at different time points compared to before treatment;there was no statistical significance in MAP and HR between 2 groups immediately after surgery,48 h after surgery(P>0.05). There was no statistical significance in VAS score between 2 groups immediately after surgery(P>0.05);6,12,24,48 h after surgery,VAS scores of observation group were signifi-cantly lower than those of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in CD3+,CD4+, CD4+/CD8+and NK cells levels between 2 groups before surgery(P>0.05). CD3+,CD4+and NK cells levels of 2 groups immediately after surgery,CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+ and NK cells levels of 2 groups at 12,24 h after surgery,CD3+and CD4+of control group at 48 h after surgery all changed significantly;CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+and NK cells levels of observation group at 12,24 h after sur-gery were significantly higher than those of control group,with statistical significantly(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The parecoxib preemptive analgesia combined with postopera-tive epidural analgesia shows good analgesic effect for hip replacement patients,keeps their hemodynamics stable and protects immune function to certain extent with good safety.

AIM: To evaluate the safety, efficacy and stability of posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens ( ICL ) implanation and clear lens extraction for the correction of high myopia.
METHODS: The study enrolled 56 cases ( 100 eyes ) of high myopia. Group I comprised 32 cases ( 58 eyes ) receiving ICL implantation and Group II comprised 24 cases (42 eyes) undergoing clear lens extraction. In this study, we evaluated the two groups of subject's the visual and refractive results, intraocular pressure ( IOP ) , endothelial cell density ( ECD ) , anterior chamber depth ( ACD) , lens transparency, the surgical complications as well as visual adverse symptoms before and after surgery.
RESULTS: The postoperative subjects in group I and group II were followed, uncorrected vision acuity ( UCVA)>0. 5 were 69. 0% in group I and 71. 4% in group II after 3mo. UCVA>0. 5 were 72. 4% in group I and 73. 8% in group II after 1a. Predictability of the manifest spherical equivalent refraction within±1. 00D was achieved in 62. 1%of eyes in group I and 57. 1% in group II after 1a. The central vault of the ICL ( distance from posterior surface of ICL to the crystalline lens ) measured with anterior segment optical coherence tomography ( AS-OCT ) was 0. 35-0. 54 (0. 40±0. 16) mm. Twelve point one percent of eyes in group I and 7. 1% of eyes in group II had transient mild increase in IOP. Here were statistically significant differences between preoperative and postoperative ECD (P<0. 001 ). Complications of surgery: 1 eye had ICL spontaneous rotation, 2 eyes had anterior subcapsular cataract, 4 eyes noticed halos around lights at night in group I. Three eyes had posterior capsule mild opacification, 3 eyes noticed halos around lights at night, 12 eyes had difficulty in near vision in group II.
CONCLUSION: ICL implantation and clear lens extraction are effective, safe and predictable surgical option for the management of high myopia. No severe complications occurred, but its long time effect and safety still need more time to prove.
