Purpose:To investigate the effects on non small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) and untoward reactions in elderly patients using vinorelbine(NVB) and oxaliplatin. Methods:NVB 25mg/m 2 ivgtt on day 1 and 8,oxalipatin 85mg/m 2 ivgtt on day 1 and 8, at 21 days per cycle. And every case should receive at least 2 cycles. Results:Among 34 patients,complete response(CR):2.9%,partial response(PR):35.3%,stable disease(SD):44.1%,progressive disease(PD):17.6%.Total response rate(RR) is 38.2%. The side effects were myelosuppression and peripheral sensory nueropathy. Conclusions:NVB combined with oxaliplatin treating NSCLC in elderly people has some effect,and the toxixity can be well tolerated.

Objective To assess the noninvasive index for diagnosing the degree of esophageal varices (EV) in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related cirrhosis. Methods The clinical data of 112 patients with HBV-related cirrhosis were studied retrospectively. The patients were divided into non-EV (NEV) group (30 cases) and EV group (82 cases) according to the results of gastroscopy. In EV group, there were mild varices in 21 cases (mild EV group), moderate varices in 47 cases (moderate EV group) and severe varices in 14 cases (severe EV group). The age, gender, platelets, glutamyl transpeptidase, prothrombin time, albumin, bilirubin, portal vein diameter, spleen vein diameter and thickness of spleen were compared, and the relationship was analyzed between each index and EV. Results There were no statistical differences in gender, age, albumin, bilirubin, prothrombin time and glutamyl transpeptidase between NEV group and EV group (P>0.05). The portal vein diameter, spleen vein diameter and thickness of spleen in EV group were significantly higher than those in NEV group:(14.1 ± 3.1) mm vs. (10.6 ± 2.3) mm, (8.9 ± 2.1) mm vs. (7.6 ± 1.6) mm and (4.8 ± 0.9) mm vs. (3.8 ± 1.0) mm, the platelets in EV group was significantly lower than that in NEV group:(86.8 ± 20.2) × 109/L vs. (163.5 ± 18.1) × 109/L, and there were statistical differences (P<0.01 or<0.05). The portal vein diameter, spleen vein diameter and thickness of spleen in moderate EV group and severe EV group were significantly higher than those that in NEV group and mild EV group: (13.5 ± 2.1) and (14.8 ± 3.6) mm vs. (10.6 ± 2.3) and (11.2 ± 3.1) mm, (8.3 ± 2.1) and (9.1 ± 1.1) mm vs. (7.6 ± 1.6) and (8.1 ± 1.9) mm, (4.7 ± 1.1) and (4.9 ± 0.9) mm vs. (3.8 ± 1.0) and (4.1 ± 1.2) mm, the platelet levels were significantly lower than those in NEV group and mild EV group: (72.8 ± 11.6) × 109/L and (63.8 ± 15.6) × 109/L vs. (163.5 ± 18.1) × 109/L and (100.2 ± 10.3) × 109/L, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). The area under curve of response operating characteristic for predicting the presence of moderate and severe EV with portal vein diameter and platelets were 0.719 and 0.735, and the cut off value were 14 mm and 69 × 109/L. Conclusions The portal vein diameter and platelets can predict the presence of moderate and severe EV in patients with HBV-related cirrhosis.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic and terapeutical value of FPG,GA,HbA1c and GA/HbA1c ratio in T1DM/T2DM.Methods:The study was made by case-control method.In our study,30 healthy subjects were selected from health physical ex-amination as control group while 160 diabetics were selected as case group,in which there are 76 TIDM and 84 T2DM.Analyzing the difference of relevance of FPG,GA and HbA1c,the difference of GA/HbA1c and threshold of the case and the control,and this analysis was also used between the T1DM and the T2DM.The data was managed by independent-sample t test,ROCK and Pearson correlation test of SPSS.Results:The results of FPG,GA ,HbA1c and GA/HbA1c ratio of T1DM and T2DM were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.01).And they were higher in the T1DM than in the T2DM(P<0.01);in the T1DM group,GA was strongly positive correlative with HbA1c(P<0.01),FPG was weakly positive correlative with GA(P>0.05),and weakly negative correlative with HbA1c(P>0.05);in T2DM group,there were positive correlation among FPG,GA and HbA1c(P<0.05),the degree of correlation ranked as HbA1c/GA>FPG/GA>FPG/HbA1c;analyzing the ROC of measures in T1DM group,the sensitivity and specificity were re-spectively 86.8% and 100% for diagnosing DM when FPG threshold was set on 5.86 mmol/L ( AUC=0.922 ) ( P<0.05 ).The sensitivity and specificity were both 100% for detecting DM when GA threshold was set on 15.5%( AUC=1 ) ( P<0.05 ).The sensitivity and specificity were respectively 98.7%and 100%for diagnosing DM when HbA1c threshold was set to 6.10%( AUC=1) ( P<0.05).The sensitivity and specificity were respectively 93.4% and 100% for diagnosing DM when the threshold of GA/HbA1c was set on 2.95 ( AUC=0.992 ) ( P<0.05 );analyzing the ROC of measures in T2DM group, the sensitivity and specificity were respectively 91.7% and 100% for diagnosing DM when FPG threshold was set on 5.94 mmol/L ( AUC=0.941 ) ( P<0.05 ).The sensitivity and specificity were respectively 85.7%and 100%for diagnosing DM when GA threshold was set on 15.5%( AUC=0.977) ( P<0.05).The sensitivity and specificity were respectively 97.6% and 100% for diagnosing DM when HbA1c threshold was set on 5.95%(AUC=0.991)(P<0.05).The ratio of GA/HbA1c had no diagnostic cutoff point,AUC was 0.644(P>0.05).Conclusion:FPG,GA, HbA1c and GA/HbA1c ratio are of high value in monitoring of blood glucose, diagnosis and typing in T1DM and T2DM.There are missed diagnosis when we diagnose T1DM and T2DM by the upper limit of reagent instruestion of FPG,GA,HbA1c.It is more important for a person with T1DM to monitor FPG than others.

Objective To discuss the curative effect of unremitting pump infusion of microdose urokinase(100 000 u/24 h)into the cerebral venous sinus in treating thrombosis in cerebral venous sinus which had anatomical variation. Methods Mechanical disruption of the thrombus and unremitting pump infusion of microdose urokinase(100 000 u/24 h)into the cerebral venous sinus for 48-96 hours were employed in 9 patients with thrombosis in anatomically varied cerebral venous sinus.After the procedure the original disorder was actively treated and the anticoagulant therapy was continued for 6 months.A follow-up of 6-12 months(mean 10 months) was conducted. Results Recanalization of the previously occluded cerebral venous sinus was obtained in all 9 patients.The dose of urokinase was 100 000 u/24 h in 8 patients.For the remaining one patient the dose of urokinase was 100 000 u/24 h in the first 48 hours,then the dose Was increased to 250 000u/24 h. Excellent result was obtained in all patients.Conclusion Unremitting pump infusion of microdose urokinase into the cerebral venous sinus can effectively treat the thrombosis in anatomically varied cerebral venous sinus.
