Objective: To explore the quality of life and drug toxicity in NSCLC (non-small cell lung cancer) patients who have a ECOC (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group)-PS (performance status) score ≥3 and a response to gefitinib more than 6 months, and to explore the possibily of gefitinib applying in NSCLC patients with a ECOG-PS score ≥3. Methods: NSCLC patients histologically and (or) cytologically confirmed were divided into trial group (ECOG-PS score ≥3) and control group (ECOG-PS score ≤2). The patients in the two groups were treated with a dose of 250 mg/d gefitinib. The efficacy, change of quality of life and the toxicity were evaluated. Results: Eighty-eight NSCLC patients were enrolled in this study (trial group: n = 27; control group: n = 61). The median follow-up time was 20.0 months. All patients in the two groups could be évaluable. In the trial group, 4 (14.81%) patients obtained CR (complete response), 20 (74.07%) patients obtained PR (partial response), 3 (11.11%) patients obtained SD (stable disease); the response rate was 88.89% (24/27). In the control group, 10 (16.39%) patients obtained CR (complete response), 43 (70.49%) patients obtained PR (partial response), 8 (13.11%) patients obtained SD (stable disease); the response rate was 86.89% (53/61). There was no difference in response rate between the two groups (P = 0.794). The median time to symptom improvement of the trial group and the control group were 10.0 and 14.0 d, respectively (P = 0.073), the median PFS (progression-free survival) were 8.0 and 7.0 momths, respectively (P = 0.421). The 1-, 2- and 3-year survival rates were 59.269% (16/27), 25.93% (7/27) and 3.70% (1/27) in the trial group and 57.38% (35/61), 21.31% (13/61) and 6.56% (4/61), respectively. There was no difference in survival rate between the two groups (P = 0.180). The ECOG-PS score after gefitinib therapy (vs before gefitinib therapy) was significantly decreased in the two groups (Trial group Z = -4.062, P = 0.000; Control group Z = -4.031, P = 0.000), and the percent decrease of ECOG-PS score after gefitinib therapy in the trial group was significantly higher as compared with that in the control group. The toxicities of gefitinib therapy were tolerated. Conclusion: Gefitinib can be safely applied in NSCLC patients with ECOG-PS score ≥3. There is no difference in survival time between NSCLC patients with ECOG-PS score ≥3 and ≤2, but the quality of life in NSCLC patients with ECOG-PS score 2= 3 is significantly impoved as compard with NSCLC patients with ECOG-PS score ≤2 after gefitinib therapy.

Objective To observe and evaluate the effect of ultrasound guided percutaneous ethanol injection for hyperparathyroidism secondary to chronic renal failure. Methods Fifty-three patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism in Nanjing General Hospital Military Command from January 2011 to May 2013 were treated by percutaneous ethanol injection. The echogenicity, size and blood supply of parathyroid glands were observed by color Doppler ultrasound before and after treatment. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and volumes of parathyroid glands were analyzed and compared with non-paired t test. Results Before treatment, the parathyroid gland volume was (5.28±0.84) cm3. The enlarged parathyroid glands had homogeneous hypoechogenicity and abundant blood supply, and the PTH was (1041.6±37.1) ng/L. After treatment, the size of solitary parathyroid gland was (3.93±0.67) cm3 which did not change significantly compared with that before treatment. The echogenicity of parathyroid glands enhanced and blood supply decreased after injection ethanol into solitary parathyroid. PTH [(509.2±27.6) ng/L] decreased obviously (t=3.792, P < 0.05). Conclusion Color Doppler ultrasound guided percutaneous injection of ethanol has an important role in the treating of secondary hyperparathyroidism and the curative effect can be observed timely.

The data of 162 cases with acute schistosomiasis in Jingzhou City from 2004 to 2008 was analyzed, and the resultsshowed that the endemic situation of acute schistosomiasis decreased year by year, and the children aged 5-14 years were themain infection population, and swimming and playing in water was the main infection mode. It is suggested that health educationfor residents especially students should be strengthened to improve their conscious for disease prevention.

Objective To isolate the anti-tumor protein groups from Pinellia ternata rhizome and investigate the anti-tumor activity of these protein groups on Bel-7402 cell. Methods The total raw protein was isolated with sepharose column chromatography. Methyl-thiazolyl-tetrazolinm (MTT) was used to analyze the effect of Pinellia ternata Protein on inhibiting growth of tumor cells. Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry (FCM). Results The 30% and 60% (NH4)2SO4 deposition part of total proteins from Pinellia ternata rhizome have no certain relationship between quantity and inhibitory action, but protein peak 3 eluted with 0.05 mol/L or 0.1 mol/L NaCl from 30% (NH4)2SO4 deposition part showed a effect of concentration depending. FCM analysis showed that the protein of 30% (NH4)2SO4 deposition part could induce apoptosis. Conclusion The 30% (NH4)2SO4 deposition part of total proteins from Pinellia ternata rhizome could significantly inhibit Bel-7402 growth and induce its apoptosis.

AIM: To analyze the effect of myopic adolescents wearing orthokeratology lens on the corneal surface curvature radius and anterior chamber depth.METHODS: Totally 120 cases of adolescent myopia were selected, among them 58 cases with 116 eyes were divided into 11-14 years old group and 62 cases with 124 eyes were 15-18 years old group according to the age.They were treated with long-term orthokeratology lens treatment, and two groups of patients were observed before wearing lens(T0), wearing for 6mo (T1), 12mo (T2) for uncorrected visual acuity, the average refractive degree improvement, the central corneal thickness, corneal curvature changes and the incidence of complications.RESULTS: The uncorrected visual acuity of the two groups at 12mo after wearing were better than that at 6mo which was better than that before wearing;the diopter had the same trend.The uncorrected visual acuity and the diopter of the 11-14 years old group at 6 and 12mo was better than those of 15-18 years old group with significant difference (P<0.05).The central corneal thickness of the two groups at 12mo after wearing were less than that at 6mo which was less than that before wearing.There was no significant difference of the central corneal thickness between the two groups at 6 and 12mo after wearing (P>0.05).The corneal anterior surface curvature of the two groups at 12mo after wearing were more than that at 6mo which was more than that before wearing.The axial length of the 11-14 years old group was longer than that of the 15-18 years old group with significant difference (P<0.05).There was no significant difference on the corneal posterior surface curvature of the two groups before and after wearing (P>0.05).There was no significant difference on the anterior chamber depth between the two groups at different time or between before and after wearing (P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Long-term wearing orthokeratology lenses have a significant effect for control ling juvenile myopia, and can improve the corneal anterior surface curvature, especially in the lower age group, and has no significant effect on the anterior chamber depth.
