MATLAB Image Processing Toolbox (IPT) was used to analyze the filtered images and draw the gray value contrast curve respectively between cancerous and normal regions of liver tissue,and also detect the edge of the cancerous tissue region. Cancerous and normal region of 30 subjects were assessed with gray value curve. The change of cancerous region was significantly higher than the normal one. The gray value curve can effectively quantify the gray information of the image. Quantitative image parameters have an important reference value on the clinical diagnosis of liver cancer.

The application of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in hepatectomy is safe and feasible.The related researches of the clinical strategies of ERAS involved in colonic surgery instead of management of basic diseases of liver,and the influence of portal hypertension and hepatitis B virus infection on the ERAS has not been emphasized.According to the clinical strategies of ERAS in colon surgery,the basic diseases and the characteristics of liver were focused,and the clinical strategies of ERAS in the era of precision liver surgery were proposed.Through concerted efforts of the multidisciplinary team and a joint of surgeons,nurses and patients,the establishment of multicentre clinical studies under guidance of evidence-based medicine (EBM) will show clearly a development direction of the clinical strategies of ERAS in the era of precision liver surgery.

Objective To perform a systematic review and Meta-analysis on volumetric and dosimetric changes in target volumes and organs at risk (OARs) in adaptive radiotherapy (ART) for patients with head and neck cancer (HNC),and to investigate the role of ART in the treatment of HNC.Methods Literature retrieval was performed to include related studies,and the parameters of primary tumor,GTV-T and GTV-N,parotid volume,D95 and Dmean of target volumes,Dmean of ipsilateral and contralateral parotid volume (I-PG and C-PG),and Dmax of the spinal cord and brainstem.Results A total of 17 studies involving 336 patients were included in the meta-analysis.Primary tumor and parotid volume changed significantly.The volumes of GTV-T,GTV-N,and I-PG were significantly reduced during the 15-20th radiotherapy and after the 20th radiotherapy (P＜0.05),and the C-PG was significantly reduced after the 20th radiotherapy (P=0.004).The analysis of actual dose showed that the D95 and Dmean of primary tumor showed no significant differences,and during the 15-20th radiotherapy,the Dmax of the spinal cord was increased by 2.26 Gy (P=0.000),while the Dmax of the brainstem showed no significant changes before the 20th radiotherapy and was increased by 1.78 Gy after the 25th radiotherapy (P=0.020).In addition,the Dmean of I-PG was increased by 2 Gy during the 20-25th radiotherapy (P =0.0001),and the D of C-PG was increased before the 20th radiotherapy and showed no significant changes after the 25thradiotherapy (P=0.110).The dosimetric analysis of ART showed that the Dmax of the spinal cord and brainstem was reduced significantly (spinal cord:MD =-2.15,95％ CI-3.12 to-1.18,P=0.000;brainstem:MD =-2.20,95％ CI-3.32 to-1.09,P=0.000).The Dmean of I-PG was reduced by about 3.5 Gy,and the sensitivity analysis revealed that the results of Dmean of C-PG were unstable.Conclusions The volumes of primary tumors and parotid glands change significantly,and the actual doses of OARs (Dmax of the spinal cord and brainstem and Dmean of the parotid glands) significantly increase,while the doses of GTV-T and GTV-N show no significant changes.ART can effectively protect the OARs,and patients with locally advanced HNC who receive concurrent chemoradiotherapy can obtain good dose gains from ART plan performed during the 15-20th radiotherapy and at about the 25th radiotherapy.

Objective To compare the effects of positioning robustness on dose distribution between intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) for head and neck tumor,and to evaluate their needs for image-based guidance.Methods Thirty patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma undergoing IMRT were enrolled as subjects.The VMAT plans were designed according to the clinical dosimetric requirements and the dose calculation was made by the AAA method.For the two plans in each patient,the isocenters were shifted by ±1.0,±3.0,and ±5.0 mm along the original x,y,and z axes to simulate the impacts of positioning errors in left-right (LR),superior-inferior (SI),and anterior-posterior (AP) directions,respectively,on dose distribution.The dose-volume histogram parameters were analyzed in 60 references and 1080 re-calculated plans.Comparison was made by paired t-test.Results When the error was 1 mm,the average deviations of gross tumor volume (GTV) D98,clinical target volume (CTV) D95 and heterogeneity index,and planning gross tumor volume (PGTV) V95 were＜0.5％.When the error was 3 mm,the average dose deviations of GTV and CTV were＜1.0％ and significantly larger in VMAT than in IMRT;the average dose deviation of PGTV was large (GTV D98,P=0.00;CTV D95,P=0.00);the average deviations of PGTVnxV95 and PGTVndV95 were significantly smaller in IMRT than in VMAT (1.64％vs.1.95％,P=0.01;1.73％ vs.2.63％,P=0.00).The deviations of parameters became larger with the increasing positioning error and were significantly larger in VMAT than in IMRT (GTV D98,P=0.00;CTV D95,P=0.00;CTV HI;P=0.00;PGTV V95;P=0.01).Compared with the target volume,Dmax to the spinal cord and brain stem had larger deviations.However,there were no significant differences in Dmax to the spinal cord and brain stem between IMRT and VMAT.Conclusions The IMRT and VMAT plans are both robust when the positioning error is small (＜3 mm).Compared with IMRT,VAMT is more sensitive to the positioning error,mainly in the target volume.The difference between the two plans becomes larger with the increasing positioning error.An increase in the frequency of image-based guidance is recommended for patients undergoing VMAT.

Objective:To explore therapeutic effect of repaglinide on patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) complicated atherosclerosis (AS).Methods:A total of 120 T2DM + AS patients treated in our hospital from Mar 2012 to May 2014 were selected.They were randomly and equally divided into repaglinide group (received repaglin- ide treatment)and glipizide group (received glipizide treatment).Fasting blood glucose (FBG)and 2h postprandial blood glucose (2hPG)levels before and after treatment,serum levels of high sensitive C reactive protein (hsCRP) and oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL)after treatment,and patients'satisfaction on treatment were com- pared and analyzed between two groups.Results:Compared with before treatment,there were significant reductions in levels of FBG and 2hPG in both groups after treatment (P<0.01 all);compared with glipizide group,there were significant reductions in levels of FBG [(6.94±0.41)mmol/L vs.(6.05±0.54)mmol/L],2hPG [(8.03±0.74) mmol/L vs.(7.66±0.78)mmol/L],serum hsCRP [(5.75±0.26)mg/L vs.(4.71±0.32)mg/L]and serum ox- LDL [(98.30±25.05)μg/dl vs.(52.21±17.50)μg/dl]after treatment in repaglinide group,P<0.01 all.Satis- faction rate in repaglinide group was significantly higher than that of glipizide group (93.33% vs.60.00%),P<0.01. Conclusion:Repaglinide possesses significant therapeutic effect on patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus com- plicated atherosclerosis.It can significantly reduce blood glucose,blood lipid and serum hsCRP levels.
