Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of Shenqi Fuzheng injection combined with EP chemotherapy in the treatment of non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC),and to improve the quality of life and side effects.Methods 60 cases of NSCLC were randomly divided into observation group and control group,30 cases in each group.The two groups were treated with EP,the observation group was treated with Shenqi Fuzheng injection for two courses.The life quality and adverse effects were observed.Results The quality of life of the two groups after treatment was compared,the difference was statistically significant (93.3% vs 70.0%,χ2 =2.83,P <0.05),the quality of life in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group.The white blood cell reduction,anemia and liver and kidney function damage between the two groups had statistically significant differences (P =0.011,0.025,0.016),the adverse reaction of the observation group was less than the control group.Conclusion Shenqi Fuzheng injection combined with EP regimen in the treatment of NSCLC can protect bone marrow hematopoietic function and improve the quality of life of patients with NSCLC chemotherapy.It can be used as one mean of Chinese and western treatment for patients with NSCLC in clinical application.

Object To develop new resources of medicinal plan t of Aconitum coreanum (L?vl.) Rapaics by the method of plant cel l biotechnology. Methods The segments of stems, leaves, embr yonal axises, radicles, and cotyledon of A. coreanum were used a s the explants. The MS medium supplied with different auxin and cytokinin was e xamined. Results The calli were induced from explants on the MS medium supplied with 2, 4-D 1 mg/L and 6-BA 0.5 mg/L in the period of 30 d. And the calli were differentiated into green conus or globe embryo after se veral subcultures period on medium MS supplied with 2, 4-D 0.2 mg/L and 6-BA 0.5 mg/L. The adventitious buds differentiated could be developed from the so matic embryo callus into roots on medium MS supplied with IBA 0.5 mg/L, and the n the intact plantlets were obtained. Conclusion The plantle ts of A. coreanum can be obtained by the techniques of somatic embryogenesis and it is indicated that this may be a new way in developing new r esource and protecting of A. coreanum.

ObjectiveTo explore the prognostic value of pretreated maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) using 18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with computed tomography (18FDG PET/CT) in locally-advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) treated by intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT).MethodsOne hundred and forty previously untreated stage Ⅲ - Ⅳb ( UICC/AJCC 6th) patients with biopsy-proven nasopharyngeal carcinoma were examined.All of the enrolled patients accepted whole body/head-neck 18FDG PET/CT before radical IMRT. 18FDG uptakes were recorded as SUVmax of primary tumor (SUVmax-P) and SUVmax of cervical lymph nodes (SUVmax-N).The relationships between SUVmax and long-term clinical outcomes were analyzed.ResultsThe median SUVmax-P was 10.4,and the median SUVmax-N was 6.2.The SUVmax-P was weakly correlated with T-stage ( R =0.279,P =0.001 ).The SUVmax-N was weakly correlated with N stage ( R =0.334,P =0.000 ).There were no difference of the median SUVmax-P (9.2 vs.10.4,U =560.50,P =0.805 ) and the median SUVmax-N (4.0vs.5.0,U =576.00,P =0.908) between patients with and without local recurrence.The median SUVmax-P of patients with distant metastasis was significantly higher than those without metastasis (11.9 vs.9.8,U =987.50,P =0.014).The SUV of 10.2 was taken as a cut-off for high and low uptake tumors.For patients with SUVmax-P ＞ 10.2,the 5-year distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) and 5-year overall survival (OS)were significantly higher than those with SUVmax-P ≤ 10.2 (69.1％ vs.95.5％,x2 =15.88,P =0.000;68.4％ vs.94.0％,x2 =15.56,P =0.000,respectively).Multivariate analysis showed that SUVmax-P was the only independent risk factor of 5-year DMFS and OS ( HR =7.87,P =0.001 and HR =5.14,P =0.003). Conclusion SUVmax-P is a useful biomarker predicting long-term clinical outcomes in newly diagnosed locally-advanced NPC patients.

Gallbladder abdominal wall fistula is usually due to the acute cholecystitis with-out timely treatment, which leads the formation of abscess around the gallbladder, the gallbladder adhering to the abdominal wall and the abscess infiltrating into the skin to form a spontaneous abdominal wall fistula. Patient with gallbladder abdominal wall fistula may have the symptoms of cholecystolithiasis and acute cholecystitis. Ultrasound examination can detect the situation of gallbladder conveniently, including the internal echo after formation of abscess, the connection between the gallbladder and abdominal cavity, and the blood flow signal, to clarify the diagnosis for the subsequent treatment. The authors share the diagnosis and treatment experiences of an elderly patient with gallbladder abdominal wall fistula.
