Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide. Although a variety of cancer therapies, such as surgical resection and local ablation, chemoembolization, radiotherapy, and systemic chemotherapy, have developed rapidly in recent years, the curative effect and 5 year-survival rate of cancer remain to be unsatisfactory. In recent years, with the deepening basic research of hydrogen, its role on the treatment of various diseases including cancer has attracted an increased attention. Hydrogen can promote the apoptosis of colon cancer cells, and which combined with 5-fluorouracil has a synergistic effect and can reduce the renal toxicity induced by cisplatin, without affecting its anti-tumor effect. Hydrogen can alleviate the side effects of radiotherapy, significantly improve the quality of life for patients with liver cancer, and does not affect the effect of radiotherapy. Hydrogen application provides a new therapeutic approach to the treatment of cancer. The specific mechanism of hydrogen in cancer treatment needs further study. This article reviewes the research progress of the role of hydrogen on the treatment of cancer, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, adjuvant chemoradiotherapy, and the regulation of signaling pathways.

Objective: To explore the relationship between intra-operative blood product transfusion and post-operative prognosis in children with pediatric open heart surgery by cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
Methods: A total of 1028 consecutive pediatric patients received the open heart surgery by CPB in our hospital were retrospectively studied. Uni- and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were conducted to analyze the relationship between intra-operative blood product transfusion and post-operative in-hospital death and complication rates.
Results: There were 45/1028 (4.4%) of patients died, 143 (13.9%) with low cardiac output syndrome, 43 (4.2%) received dialysis, 26 (2.5%) with sustained pulmonary failure, 17 (1.7%) with infection, and 28 (2.7%) developed neurologic complications. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that duration and the lowest temperature of CPB, 24-hour post-operative pediatric risk of mortality (PRISM-III) score and intra-operative transfusion amount of RBC > median (20.3 ml/kg) were the independent risk factors for post-operative in-hospital death. Congenital heart disease (CHD) with pre-operative cyanosis, duration of CPB, 24-hour post-operative PRISM-III score, 6-hour post-operative mediastinal drain loss and intra-operative transfusion amount of RBC > 20.3 ml/kg were the independent risk factors for post-operative complication occurrence.
Conclusion: Large volume of RBC transfusion in the open heart pediatric surgery with CPB may increase the risk of post-operative in-hospital death and complication occurrence, reducing RBC transfusion might be improving the post-operative prognosis in CHD patients.
