1.The role of a multidisciplinary team in diagnosing and treating esophageal cancer
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2016;43(12):502-506
Esophageal cancer treatment mode has currently been transformed from surgery alone to multidisciplinary treatment mo-dalities based on the standardization of operation in combination with the reasonable application of perioperative radiotherapy, che-motherapy, and other comprehensive treatment. Although controversies concerning accurate preoperative staging, surgical approach, extent of lymph node dissection, and perioperative chemotherapy regimens still exist, a multidisciplinary team can provide an optimal mode of diagnosis and treatment. A multidisciplinary approach embodies individualized tumor treatment and standardization princi-ple to the maximum extent, as well as prolongs patients' survival time and improves the quality of life.

Objective:Vernonia anthelmintica,with complicated components,is a common medicine for the treatment of vitiligo.The purpose of this study was to establish and optimize the separation conditions of high performance liquid chromatography fingerprints(HPLC-FPs) for Vernonia anthelmintica(L.) Willd.Methods: We investigated the HPLC-FPs of different extraction samples by the retention times and relative areas of common peaks in the fingerprints.Results: We established the optimum separation conditions of HPLC-FPs for Vernonia anthelmintica(L.) Willd,and obtained 19 common peaks in the fingerprints.The HPLC-FPs of the 85% ethanol extract were quite similar to those of the semi-bionic extract(SBE) but very different from those of the water extract of Vernonia anthelmintica(L.) Willd.The No.1,4,6,11,12,14 and 16-19 peaks were the endemic ones of the HPLC-FPs of the 85% ethanol extract and SBE of Vernonia anthelmintica(L.) Willd,while No.20-30 were the endemic peaks of the HPLC-FPs of the water extract.Conclusion: The results of our study has provided experimental evidence for further investigation into the constituents absorbed into blood,pharmaceutical technology and pharmacodynamics of Vernonia anthelmintica(L.) Willd.
