Castleman disease (CD) is a rare polyclonal lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by enlarged hyperplastic lymph node(s). Unicentric Castleman disease (UCD) is an indolent condition often treated by local approaches. On the contrary, pa-tients with multicentric Castleman disease (MCD) have less favorable prognoses and require systemic treatments. Cytotoxic chemother-apy has been widely used to treat MCD with varying degrees of response because of the toxicity risk of the treatment. The pathogenesis remains unknown;however, most pieces of evidence to date point toward human herpes virus 8 (HHV-8) and deregulated overproduc-tion of interleukin (IL-6). Discovery of putative etiologic factors and targets in MCD, particularly HHV-8, CD20, and IL-6, has translat-ed to the use of rituximab, anti-IL-6-based, and antiviral therapy. Good results have been realized through targeting HHV-8 replication, CD20, and IL-6 pathways. In this article, we reviewed the classification, pathogenesis, and current treatments of CD and provided in-sights into future treatment strategies based on disease biology.

Objective To study the relationship between the T helper cells (Th22)/interleukin (IL)-22 and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with interstitial lung disease (ILD), and to define the clinical significance of Th22 cells for RA. Methods The quantity of Th22 cells in the peripheral blood from 40 patients with RA (20 RA with ILD, 20 RA without ILD) were examined by flow cytometry, the level of IL-22 in the sera was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Comparisons between groups were analyzed by t-test, rank sum test, and the correlation of parameters were tested by linear correlation analysis. Results The quantities of CD4+IL-22+ cells (Th22) in RA patients [(0.15 ±0.07)%] were significantly higher than normal controls [(0.09 ±0.05)%] (t=4.097, P<0.01), and IL-22 levels in RA patients [(83 ±7) ng/L] were significantly higher than normal controls [(61±5) ng/L] (t=13.057, P<0.01). The quantities of Th22 cells in RA-ILD patients [(0.18±0.07)%] were significantly higher than RA-NILD patients [(0.13±0.05)%] (t=2.919, P=0.008), and IL-22 levels in RA-ILD patients [(87±6) ng/L] were significantly higher than RA-NILD patients [(80±6)ng/L] (t=3.624, P=0.001). The quantities of Th22 cells were positively correlated with erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), rheumatoid factor(RF) and 1.4 disease activity score (DAS)28 (r=0.336, 0.377, 0.577, P<0.05),and the level of IL-22 were also positively correlated with ESR and DAS28 (r=0.406, 0.576, P<0.05). Conclusion The quantities of Th22 cells and IL-22 level are increased in RA patients, especially in RA-ILD patients. The quantities of Th22 cells and IL-22 level are positively correlated with ESR and DAS28. It may play a certain role in RA especially in RA with ILD.

Objective To compare the efficacy and adverse reaction of teniposide (VM-26) plus carboplatin (TC regimen) and etoposide (VP-16) plus carboplatin (EC regimen) in treatment of newly diagnosed small cell lung cancer (SCLC), and the possible role of VM-26 on prevention of brain metastasis of SCLC. Methods A total of 102 previously untreated SCLC patients without brain metastasis were divided into VP-16 group received EC regimen (n=64) and VM-26 group received TC regimen(n=38). The carboplatin dosages in two groups were calculated by blood concentration-area under the curve(AUC)=5, and intravenous infusion of 1 h for the first day. In VM-26 group, VM-26 70 mg/m2+normal saline 500 mL was intravenously infused of 2 h for 1-3 days. VP-16 100 mg/m2+normal saline 500 mL was given to VP-16 group, 1 h for 1-3 days. Twenty-one day was for 1 treatment cycle. The curative effect, prognosis and adverse reaction were compared between two groups. Results The overall response rates (ORR) and disease control rates (DCR) were 78.9%(30/38) and 97.4%(37/38) in VM-26 group, respectively, and 76.6%(49/64) and 95.3%(61/64) in VP-16 group, respectively, with no significant differences between the two groups (χ2=0.078 and 0.283, P<0.05). The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 10 months (95%CI 7.4-12.6) in VM-26 group and 9 months (95%CI 6.4-11.6) in VP-16 group (χ2=0.029,P=0.866). The median overall survival (OS) was 18 months (95%CI 16.5-19.5) and 16 months (95%CI 9.9-22.1) in VM-26 group and VP-16 group (χ2=0.217,P=0.642), respectively. The survival rates for 1,2 and 3 years were 73.7%, 36.8%and 18.4%in VM-26 group, and 71.9%, 37.5%and 18.8%in VP-16 group, respectively, with no significant differences between the two groups (P>0.05). The brain metastasis rate was significantly higher in VP-16 group [43.8%(28/64)] than that of VP-26 group [21.1%(8/38),χ2=5.379,P=0.02). The adverse reactions were mainly grade 1/2 bone marrow suppression in two groups. Conclusion TC is a highly active regimen for treatment of SCLC. There is no difference in the ef?fectiveness and adverse reactions versus EC. Application of VM-26 can reduce the incidence of brain metastasis in SCLC patients.

Objective To study the possibility of fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma diagnosed by ultrasonography,and the relationship between the fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma and family tuberous sclerosis. Methods High resolution ultrasonic equipment with fetal cardiac software was used. The main cross section of four chamber view was studied mainly. The location, the number of the tumor and the outflow tract of left and right ventricular cordis were scanned carefully, the maternal abdominal scan was performed as well. Results Five cases of fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma were found by routine prenatal ultrasonography, and were confirmed by autopsy. Among them, one case were associated with maternal tuberous sclerosis. Conclusions Fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma associated with tuberous sclerosis. Fetus with cardiac rhabdomyoma frequently die of cardiac failure; since the prognosis of the tuberous sclerosis with neural sclerosis was very poor, when the fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma was detected prenatally, the possibility of tuberous sclerosis should be considered, also relative examination must be performed to the mother to decrease the perinatal mortality.
