Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT)is a more advanced radiotherapy technique than routine radiotherapy,and has been effectively utilized in the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).Rradiotherapy alone has disappointing effect to local advanced cases.Nevertheless,chemoradiotherapy provides long term survival.Chemoradiotherapy is becoming the standard therapeutic regimen for local advanced NPC.But different ways of chemomdiotherapy such as induction,concurrent,adjuvant chemotherapy still need to be defined.

0.05)。The median time to progression (mTTP)was 5.8 months in XELOX group and 5.7 months in FOLFOX4 group. The median survival time (MST) was 10.0 months in XELOX group and 9.8 months in FOLFOX4 group, The toxicities were well tolerated,The incidence of grade Ⅲ+Ⅳ nausea and vomiting was significantly lower in XELOX group than in FOLFOX4 group (P0.05).Conclusions:Both of the two regimens were feasible, well tolerated and effective in treatment of advanced gastric cancer。XELOX regimen may be safer than FOLFOX4 regimen,especially in elderly patients or patients with ECOG PS of 1 to 2.

Background and purpose:It has been shown that chemotherapy could improve the quality of life and prolongation of survival time of the patients with advanced gastric cancer. There is still no standard chemotherapy regimen for advanced and metastatic gastric cancer, and regimens with high efficacy and safety are scare. Toxicities are considered to be limiting factors and in? uence the quality of life in the patients with advanced gastric cancer. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effi cacy and toxicity of docetaxel(DOC) in combination with oxaliplatin(OXA) as fi rst-line treatment in advanced gastric cancer and try to fi nd a regimen that would be more tolerable without deterioration of treatment response. Methods:48 patients with advanced gastric cancer were treated with docetaxel 35 mg/m2, ivgtt, d1,d8 combined with oxaliplatin 130 mg/ m2,ivgtt,d1 ;repeated every 3 weeks (one cycle) ,The effect was evaluated after two cycles. The effi cacy and toxicity were evaluated according to WHO standard. Results:48 patients could be evaluated for clinical response. Complete response in 3 pts and partial response in 24 pts were observed with an overall response rate of 56.25%, median time to progression (MTTP) was 5.6 months and median overall survival (MST) was 11.8 months. The most common toxicities were bone marrow suppression, peripheral neuritis, nausea and vomiting. All of them are reversible. Conclusion:Combining weekly docetaxel and oxaliplatin is an effective and well tolerated alternative treatment in advanced gastric cancer and has yielded promising results.

Objective To investigate the possibility that transplanting the full-thickness neonatal piggy retinas that are completely differentiated but immature improves the retinal function after light-induced retinal degeneration in pigs.Methods Retinas from normal Guangxi Bama pigs aged 1-6 days were used as donor tissues.Neuroretina-RPE cografts were obtained from newborn pigs by using excimer laser for microablation of choroidal tissue and transplanted into the subretinal cavity of adult Bama pigs after light-induced retinal degeneration through vitrectomy and retinotomy.On days 5-7 and in 1st to 5th month after retinal transplantation,the survival of the cografts in the recipients and whether the host retinas have rejection were observed by ophthalmoscope,colour fundus photography and fundus fluorescein angiography,and the amplitude and lantency of N1,P1 waves between different periods were measured by mfERG.Results The retinal transplantation was performed in 15 eyes of 8 Bama pigs after light-induced retinal degeneration.The subretinal transplantation of the cografts was performed successfully in 11 eyes,with the operation success rate of 84.6%(11/15).In host retina,the gray-black graft inside transplantation bed could be seen clearly in 1st to 2nd month after transplantation and the leaked fluorescence in transplants was checked with FFA.The vertical comparison between different periods showed the amplitude of N1,P1 waves of retinal transplants rose with the extension of the survival time,and the areas where active response was observed were ring 2 and ring 3;but the latency of N1,P1 waves was shortened significantly in each ring as compared with that before operation,especially in late survival period.Conclusion The function measurement and the observation of living body together confirm the transplantation of completely differentiated retina from newborn pigs improves the retinal function of pigs after light-induced retinal degeneration.

Objective To investigate the apoptosis rate of neurons in vitro among the primary culture cells isolated from rat spinal cords before and after injury. Methods The spinal cord neurons of Wistar rats at 14-day gestation were isolated and cultured. The neuronal processes were then injured by cutting. At different time points after injury, TUNEL method was employed to detect the apoptotic neurons. Results Before injury, there was almost no apoptotic neuron. However, a large amount of apoptotic neurons were observed after the injury. The highest incidence of apoptosis appeared on the first day, and then it gradually reduced in the following days, but increased in amount again on the seventh day. Conclusion The results of the present experiment reveal the regularity of apoptosis of neurons before and after injury, and it provides a platform for further research regarding therapeutic intervention in the treatment of spinal cord injury.

OBJECTIVE:To find the active ingredient of on antithrombotic chuanxiong rhizoma using computer aided drug de-sign. METHODS:Usingthrombosisas keyword,thrombosis related proteins were searched and screened in therapeutic target da-tabase;target proteins'three-dimensional structure were downloaded in protein database,then the protein preparing tool were used to determine the coordinates of the active area center. PyRx software and Discovery Studio Visualizer were used to match the 247 small molecules of chuanxiong rhizoma with target protein that downloaded from Taiwan traditional Chinese medicine database. The active molecules were screened and binding force was analyzed. RESULTS:Active molecules of neochlorogenic acid,1-H-benz-imidazole-2-amine,3,8-dihydrodiligustilide,chuanxiongterpene were selected by blinding energy,and there were high binding ac-tivity among these active molecules,thrombin,antithrombinⅢ,coagulation factorⅩa and thrombomodulin,and the binding ener-gy were -6.1,-4.5,-7.7,-8.6 kJ/mol.

Objective To evaluate the causes of the metamorphopsia in patients with reattached retina after scleral buckling surgery. Methods Amsler grid test, ophthalmoscopic examination, fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) were performed on 79 patients (79 eyes) with reattached retina at the 2nd week, 2nd, 6th month and 1st year after scleral buckling operation. Results Two weeks after the operation, 51 patients (51 eyes, 64.56%) complained of metamorphopsia, and 44 patients (44 eyes, including 35 with and 9 without metamorphopsia) were examined by OCT and FFA. In patients with metamorphopsia, the results of OCT in 31 (88.57%) revealed abnormal macula with seven kinds consisting mostly of stratum neuroepithelium detachment (74.29%), while of FFA in 6 patients showed abnormal macular (17.14%) including 4 with neuroepithelium detachment (66.67%). In patients without metamorphopsia, abnormal macula could be found in 2 by OCT while nothing special was seen in FFA. Most abnormal macula in patients followed-up 2 months, 6 months and 1 year postoperatively meliorated as time went by, with alleviative or disappeared metamorphopsia; while the patients with persistently existing macular membrane had aggravating metamorphopsia. Conclusions Abnormal macula is the main reason for metamorphopsia after scleral buckling surgery. Neuroepithelium detachment and macular membrane are the main causes of metamorphopsia at the early and terminal stage after operation.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical characteristics and gene polymorphism of oxcarbazepine (OXC)- induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). METHODS:Retrieved from CNKI,Wanfang,VIP, PubMed,EMBase,SpringerLink and other databases,case reports about OXC-induced severe ADR were summarized and ana-lyzed. RESULTS:Twelve literatures were collected,and 13 case reports about OXC-induced SJS/TEN were obtained. Male had more OXC-induced severe skin ADR than female. ADR mostly occurred during 1-14 d after medication. All patients were cured with treatment of glucocorticoid and antiallergy,without death case. Genotyping for 8 patients were performed and 6 of them showed the presence of HLA-B*1502 allele. While HLA-B alleles of 2 patients were HLA-B*1518/B*4001,which was the variation of HLA-B*1502. CONCLUSIONS:OXC-induced ADR should be monitored closely. Great importance should be attached to patient education and follow-up program. HLA-B*1502 gene detection should be performed to guide rational use of OXC and optimize clini-cal drug use plan.
