Purpose:To compare the response and toxic reaction of 3-weeks’ and weekly taxotere/cisplation treatment in non-small-cell lung cancer. Methods:Group A: Taxotere 75mg/m~2 IV d 1,cisplatin 25mg/m~2 d 1-3 q3-4w; Group B: Taxotere 60 mg IV d1, taxotere 40 mg IV d8,d15, cisplatin 25 mg/m~2 IV d 1,d 8,d 15 q3-4w. The clinical responses were assessed after two cycles. Toxicity was assessed every cycle. Results:There was no CR in the 71 cases . There were 14 PR, 13 SD in group A; there were 16 PR, 14 SD in group B. The overall response rates were 41.2% and 44.4% in group A and B. The rates of grade Ⅲ/Ⅳ neatropenia were 70.6% and 25% in group A and B. The major nonhematologic toxicity was weakness. The rates of weakness were 44.1% and 19.4% in group A and B. Conclusions:The response rates were similar between groups A and B. The occurrence of hematologic toxicity and weakness were lower in weekly treatment.

Objective To analyze the treatment-delay situation of tuberculosis(TB) patients and its influencing factors in ethnic minority areas to provide reference basis for formulating the effective prevention and control measures.Methods The medical records data in 1166 cases of pulmonary TB in Jinping county during 2010-2014 were collected from national TB information management system,their treatment-delay related situation was analyzed and its influencing factors were also analyzed by adopting the Logistic regression model.Results Among 1 166 cases of pulmonary TB reported by Jinping County during 2010-2014,568 cases were treatment-delay,the treatment-delay rate was 48.71% (568/1 066),the treatment-delay time ≥30 d accounted for 67.25 (382/568),which ≥183 d(half a year) accounted for 6.51% (37/568),which ≥365 d accounted for 2.64% (15/568),and the maximal treatment-delay time reached 7 years(2 549 d);the multivariate Logistic regression analysis results showed that compared with non-peasants,sputum smear negative,non-critical patients,peasants(OR=1.867,95% CI:1.300-2.700),sputum positive(OR=1.631,95 % CI:1.200-2.100),critical patients(OR =0.684,95 % CI:0.500-0.900) were the risk factors for the treatment-delay in the pulmonary TB patients in ethnic minority areas.Conclusion The treatment-delay of pulmonary TB patients in ethnic minority areas has no relation with the nationality difference,patient's peasant occupation,sputum smear positive and whether severe case are the influencing factors of treatment-delay in pulmonary TB patients.
