Objective To investigate the risk factors for coronary artery lesions (CALs) in children with Kawasaki disease (KD) in Lanzhou. Methods One hundred and seventy-four children with diagnosed KD were divided into CAL group and non-CAL group based on the existence of concurrent CALs. The age, gender, fever duration, intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) start time, IVIG dose, C-reactive protein (CRP), serum albumin, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), platelet (PLT), red blood cell count (RBC), hemoglobin and so on were compared. Results Among the 174 children, 46 children (26.44%) were complicated by CALs and 128 children were not. The differences of average fever duration, IVIG starting time, IVIG dose, PLT, CRP, ESR and RBC were statistically signiifcant (P<0.05). Conclusions When KD children has the fever durations>10 d, start of IVIG af-ter 10 days of fever, increase of PLT, CRP and ESR and decrease of RBC, clinicians should be alert to the risk of concurrent CAL.

Objective To explore the clinical feasibility and safety of early intervention for severe stenosis of non-infarct related artery(non-IRA)in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI) and multi-vessel disease(MVD)after successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)for infarct-asso-ciated artery(IRA). Methods From May 1st,2011 to December 30th,2016,165 patients with STEMI and MVD were enrolled in our study. After the completion of primary PCI in IRA ,75 patients still in the hospital agreed to undergo a second staged PCI in severe stenosis of non-infarct arteries. We analyzed the in-hospital adverse events ,the length of hospital stay and clinical outcomes during the follow-up in the study population. Results There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events between the two groups during hos-pitalization. However,compared to patients treated with the IRA-only PCI,those treated with early intervention for severe stenosis of non-IRA was associated with greater benefits for clinical outcomes(including rehospitalization for heart failure,rehospitalization for ACS,recurrent angina pectoris,necessity for reintervention)during the follow-up except for the all-cause mortality. Conclusion Early intervention for severe stenosis of non-IRA is a feasible and safe procedure in patients with acute STEMI and MVD after successful primary PCI.

Objective:To explore the potential serum biomarkers of patients with lupus nephritis(LN)by using two-dimensional electrophoresis combined with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF/TOF MS),so as to lay the foundation for illuminating pathogenesis.Methods:A total of 40 LN patients were divided into two groups,the active LN group and the inactive LN group,with 20 in each.In addition,20 IgA nephritis patients and 20 healthy volunteers were enrolled as IgAN group and healthy control group.Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis was used to separate and analyze the serum proteins,and MALDI-TOF/TOF MS was applied to the identification of the differentially expressed pro-teins.Results:A total of fifty differentially expressed proteins were identified.Compared with that in healthy control group,23 differentially expressed proteins were discovered in active LN group and inactive LN group,among which,8 proteins were up-regulated and 1 5 proteins were down-regulated.And 1 8 differentially expressed proteins,compared with IgA nephritis group, were found in active LN group and inactive LN group,including 13 up-regulated proteins and 5 down-regulated proteins.Fur-thermore,the number of up-regulated and down-regulated proteins in active LN group,compared with those in inactive LN group,were 4 and 5,respectively.Among the 50 identified differentially expressed proteins,the expression of serum amyloid protein A(SAA )in active LN group was higher than that in the other groups while the expression of complement component C4A in active LN group was lower than that in the other groups.And the expression of chain B (solution structure of double super helix model)in the inactive LN group was higher than that in the other groups.Compared with that in healthy control group,the expression of vitamin D-binding protein isoform 1 precursor,chain A(crystal structure of uncomplexed vitamin D-binding protein)and chain B (a covalent dimer of transthyretin that affects the amyloid pathway)was up-regulated in both ac-tive LN group and inactive LN group,while the expression of the vitronectin precursor,ficolin-2 isoform a precursor and chain A (crystal structure of the catalytic domain of human complement C1 s protease)was down-regulated.Compared with that in IgA nephritis group,the expression of lipoprotein CIII and vitronectin precursor was up-regulated in both active LN group and inactive LN group.Conclusions:Combination of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF/TOF MS is effective for screening and identification of differentially expressed proteins in serum from LN patients.These differentially expressed pro-teins could be used as biomarkers for noninvasive diagnosis and evaluation of LN.Further study on these proteins would be conducive to understanding the pathogenesis of LN.

Purpose:
This study was aimed to investigate long-term survivals and toxicities of early-stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in endemic area, evaluating the role of chemotherapy in stage II patients.
Materials and Methods:
Totally 187 patients with newly diagnosed NPC and restaged American Joint Committee on Cancer/ International Union Against Cancer 8th T1-2N0-1M0 were retrospectively recruited. All received intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT)±chemotherapy (CT) from 2001 to 2010.
Results:
With 15.7-year median follow-up, 10-year locoregional recurrence-free survival, distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), disease-specific survival (DSS), and overall survival (OS) were 93.3%, 93.5%, 92.9% and 88.2%, respectively. Multivariable analyses showed cervical lymph nodes positive and pre-treatment prognostic nutritional index ≥ 52.0 could independently predict DMFS (p=0.036 and p=0.011), DSS (p=0.014 and p=0.026), and OS (p=0.002 and p < 0.001); Charlson comorbidity index < 3 points could predict DSS (p=0.011); age > 45 years (p=0.002) and pre-treatment lactate dehydrogenase ≥ 240 U/L (p < 0.001) predicted OS. No grade 4 late toxicity happened; grade 3 late toxicities included subcutaneous fibrosis (4.3%), deafness or otitis (4.8%), skin dystrophy (2.1%), and xerostomia (1.1%). No differences on survivals were shown between IMRT+CT vs. IMRT alone in stage II patients, even in T2N1M0 (p > 0.05). Unsurprising, patients in IMRT+CT had more acute gastrointestinal reaction, myelosuppression, mucositis, late ear toxicity, and cranial nerve injury (all p < 0.05) than IMRT alone group.
Conclusion
Superior tumor control and satisfying long-term outcomes could be achieved with IMRT in early-stage NPC with mild late toxicities. As CT would bring more toxicities, it should be carefully performed to stage II patients.
