Purpose:To evaluate the effect of cisplatin-based peri-operation chemotherapy (CT) on survival after completed resection of non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)Methods:A prospective, randomized, multicenter study was conducted by Shanghai Lung Cancer Team since Feb 1995 to Dec 2003 for stage Ⅰ~ⅢA NSCLC with completed resection. Patients were randomly assigned to receive pre-operative CT or no pre-operative CT (pre-op CT). Post-operative CT (post-op CT) were used for majority of the patients, except for partial stage I patients. Accumulated survival, log rank, MST, Cox uni-variance and multi-variance analyses, HR were used as statistics for evaluation Results:A total of 337 patients underwent randomization, 169 cases received pre-operative CT, and 168 cases didn't receive pre-operative CT. There was statistical survival difference between the group with no pre-op CT and with pre-op CT, 5-yr survival rate were of 47.85%∶ 36.52%, MST were 56.63∶39.14(P=0.03), respectively. Stage and post-op CT were the only two meaningful parameters with statistical survival difference calculated by multi-variance analyses (P0.05). There were 121 cases received more than 3 cycles post-op CT, 216 cases received less than 3 cycles post-op CT. The patients received more than 3 cycles had better yr-survival and MST than those received less cycles (P=0.04).Post-op CT was not benefit to the survival rate of stage I. In stage Ⅱ and ⅢA ,the patients received ≥3 cycles post-op CT had better yr-survival than those received less cycles(P

Objective To investigate the relationship between helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and reflux esophagitis (RE). Methods H.Pylori infection rates of RE in patients with simple chronic gastritis(CG),which was confirmed by gastrospcope combined with pathological diagnosis were researched.The relationship between HP infection and RE classifications using gastroscope and pathology was explored.Results ⑴H.pylori infection was found in 29(27.1%) in 107 cases of RE and 43(40.2%) in 107 cases of simple CG patients respectively,HP infection positive in RE patients less than that of simple CG patients.RE of class Ⅰ,Ⅱand Ⅲ using gastroscopy classification were 62.1%, 10.3% and 27.6% in H. Pylori-positive cases respectively, while they were 56.4%, 6.4% and 37.2% respectively in H. Pylori-negative ones. However, mild, moderate and severe RE identified by pathohistology were 72.4%, 13.8% and 13.8% in H.Pylori-positive cases respectively, and they were 57.7%, 17.9% and 24.4% respectively in H.Pylori-negative ones.Conclusions All above results suggested that H.Pylori possibly has prevention role in some extent to pathogenesis of RE. RE more commonly was seen in H.Pylori-negative cases.RE could inhibit the H.Pylori survive,So that,the RE was occurred frequently in H.Pylori-negative patients.The inflammatory extent of RE is not serious in H.Pylori-positive patients.

Objectives To compare the effectiveness and safety of intravenous anti-D immunoglobulin (IV anti-D) with high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) as initial treatments of acute idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) in children. Methods Randomized controlled trials comparing anti-D with high-dose IVIG in the treatment of childhood acute ITP were systematically reviewed from PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and hand-searched reference lists. The number of patients with a platelet count>20 × 109/L at 72 hours after treatment initia-tion, and the decrease in hemoglobin were the primary outcomes. The meta-analysis was performed by RevMan 5.1. Results A total of 771 relevant articles were retrieved, and ifve studies were included. The RR (anti-D versus high dose IVIG) of achieving a platelet count>20×109/L at 72 hours was 0.90 (95%CI:0.82~0.98). However, subgroup analysis suggested no signiifcant difference between anti-D at a dose of 50μg/kg and high-dose IVIG (RR 0.98, 95% CI: 0.84~1.13), as well as between anti-D at a dose of 75μg/kg and high-dose IVIG (RR 0.88, 95%CI:0.75~1.03). Hemoglobin drop was greater in the anti-D group. No patients, however, required transfusions of erythrocyte suspensions. Conclusions IV anti-D may be as ef-fective as high-dose IVIG in the treatment of childhood acute ITP at 72 hours after therapy. The side effects of anti-D were tolerated and acceptable.

Objective To study common Gram negative bacterial pathogens and their drug resistant pattern in sputum isolates from patients in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of Chengdu children' s hospital. Methods Comparing to the period of 2004-2006 with 2007-2009, we retrospectively reviewed eligible sputum isolates of common Gram negative bacilli and their drug resistance pattern. All specimens were processed according to standard microbiological methods for both quantitative and qualitative cultures. Pathogen was the single predominant growth after two consecutive cultures. Strict quality control was used in all test agents and paper disk for drug resistance analysis. Results Total of 598 Gram negative bacterial isolates were identified in patients over 6 years. The first 5 bacteria respectively were Escherichia coli 167 samples(27.93%), Klebsiella pneumoniae 109 samples ( 18.23% ), Enterobacter cloacae 93 samples ( 15.55% ),Acinetobacter baumannii 64 samples ( 10. 7% ), Pseudomonas aeroginosa 43 samples (7. 19% ). They were mostly sensitive to Imipenam, Amikacin, Piperacillin/Tazobactam. Most drug resistance rate was found in Amoxicillin, Ampicillin, Cephalosporin. Apart from Pseudomonas aeroginosa and Acinetobacter Baumannii,no Gram negative bacteria was found to be resistant to Imipenam. Klebsiella pneumoniae and ESBL secreting Escherichia coli isolates were obviously increasing when compared to 3 years ago. Conclusion Comparing the period of 2004-2006, the Gram negative bacterial isolates were increasing in our PICU patients during 2007 to 2009. Close monitoring of drug resistance pattern changes in PICU would guide rational use of antibiotics in these critically ill children.
