Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2014;37(30):8-10
Objective To investigate the change ofpermeability surfaces (PS) of CTperfusion(CT-p) before chemotherapy and early period treatment with chemotherapy (the first cycle of chemotherapy) in advanced non-small cell lung cancer and explore the correlation with the efficacy of chemotherapy.Methods Eighty patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer which confirmed by pathology were taken standardized treatment by first-line drug.All patients performed with the CT-p technique before chemotherapy and one cycle after chemotherapy.The efficacy was evaluated by RECIST after 4 cycles of chemotherapy,the patients were divided into complete remission (CR) + partial response (PR),stable (SD),development (PD) according to the results and the change of PS was compared among these groups before chemotherapy and after 1 cycle of chemotherapy.Results Seventy-four patients' values of PS were useful.The remission rate and the stability rate was 32.4% (24/74) and 78.4% (58/74) respectively after 4 cycles of chemotherapy.PS after 1 cycle of chemotherapy in CR +PR (24 cases) and SD (34 cases) was lower than that before chemotherapy (12.38 ± 1.86 vs.18.13 ± 2.45,13.24 ± 1.97 vs.17.93 ± 2.38),and there was significant difference (P <0.05).There was no obvious change in PS before chemotherapy and after 1 cycle of chemotherapy in PD (16 cases),and there was no significant difference(P> 0.05).Conclusions The value of PS which reflects the change of perfusion in tumor vessel at early chemotherapy and the prognosis of the non-small cell lung cancer.Use the change of PS to predict the prognosis of patients with chemotherapy.It could be the norm of calculating the curative effect of chemotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer.
2.Research advances in diagnosis and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma complicated by arterioportal shunt
Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2017;33(2):364-368
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) complicated by arterioportal shunt (APS) is commonly seen in clinical practice,with an incidence rate of 28.8%-63.2%.It is manifested as abdominal pain,diarrhea,and ascites and can also lead to serious complications of portal hypertension including gastrointestinal bleeding.Although there are various therapeutic methods,they tend to have poor clinical effects.APS is one of the most important causes of death in patients with HCC.This article introduces the etiology,typing,clinical manifestation,and therapies of HCC complicated by APS and points out that although there are various therapeutic methods for HCC complicated by APS,interventional treatment remains the most important method.The exploration of interventional treatment helps to improve patients' prognosis.
3.Mutual promotion, mutual assistance and mutual inhibition in the compatibility of acupoints.
Chinese Acupuncture & Moxibustion 2015;35(10):1021-1024
Mutual promotion, mutual assistance and mutual inhibition are commonly for the compatibility of Chinese herbs, but they are also existed among the acupoints. In the paper, the relevant literature on acupoint, compatibility was collected and the mutual promotion, mutual assistance and mutual inhibition relationships of acupoints were described. The laws of the above mentioned combinations, the theoretic evidences and modern researches were summarized briefly. The mutual promotion and mutual assistance refer to the coordination of acupoints, presenting the relationship of the primary and the secondary about the mutual assistance. Hereby, the acupoints could be divided into the simple assistant acupoints and the acupoints from the affected meridians. The mutual inhibition is used to describe the antagonism effect in acupoint combination. There are more researches on the mutual promotion of acupoint combination but less ones on the mutual inhibition and its mechanism is just hypothetic. It is very important to have the deep study on those compatibility relationships for the improvement of acupuncture efficacy and to elaborate the effect mechanism.

4.Assessment of relationship among color Doppler flow pattern,vascular distribution and lymph nodes metastasis in breast carcinomas
Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2011;34(14):7-9
Objective To study the association among the color Doppler flow pattern, vascular distribution and the lymph nodes metastasis in breast carcinomas. Methods Sixty-eight patients with infiltrating mammary gland duct carcinoma were divided into the no-lymph-nodes-metastasis group (group I , 37 cases) and the lymph-nodes-metastasis group (group Ⅱ , 31 cases), group Ⅱ were subdivided into group Ⅱa (19 cases): lateral lymph nodes positive of pectoralis minor and group Ⅱ b (12 cases): rear of pectoralis minor and subclavian lymph node positive. Blood flow parameters [peak systoltc velocity (PSV),resistent index ( RI)] and vascular Alder grades were observed and measured with color Doppler ultrasound.The results were compared with the incidence of lymph node metastasis. Results PSV and RI were not significantly different between group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ (t = -0.19,-0.63,P> 0.05),and also between group Ⅱ a and group Ⅱ b (t =-1.12,-013,P >0.05). By using vascular Alder grades,there were no significant differences between group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ (x2= 0.46, P> 0.05 ), but the significant differences were observed between group Ⅱ a [10.5%(2/19) ,63.2%( 12/19) ,26.3%(5/19) in Alder Ⅰ , Ⅱ , Ⅲ grade] and group Ⅱ b [8.3%( 1/12), 16.7%(2/12),75.0%(9/12)in Alder Ⅰ , Ⅱ ,Ⅲ grade](x2 = 7.41,P<0.05). Conclusion The pattern of blood flow has no correlation with lymph nodes metastasis, vascular Alder grades of carcinoma shows some relevance with the lymph nodes metastasis in the patients with infiltrating mammary gland duct carcinoma.

9.Study on Optimization of Nano-silver Prepared by Method of Liquid Reduction
Journal of Environment and Health 1989;0(06):-
Objective The various influencing factors in the process of nano-silver preparation were studied in order to prepare nano-silver that has uniformity particle size distribution and good crystallinity. Methods Through the method of liquid reduction at room temperature,the nano-silver powders were prepared directly using silver nitrate as raw material,water as the reactive medium,polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP) as protecting agent and ammonium formate as reducing agent. By means of EDS and TEM(transmission electron microscopy),the prepared silver particles were characterized. The various influencing factors in the process of preparation were also discussed. Results With the increasing concentration of AgNO3,the particle diameter of nano-silver changed obviously. When the concentration of silver nitrate was 0.25-0.30 mol/L,the size of product is the smallest. With the increasing concentration of reductant,the diameter of nano-silver decreased gradually. While at the concentration of 0.70 mol/L HCOOH,the average diameter of nano-silver is not more than 10 nm. Smaller and more well-distributed silver powder could be prepared at ratio of concentration of PVP to AgNO3 with the value of 1.5-1.0,at which PVP presented effective protection. Conclusions This method can prepare particle of nano-silver which revealed well dispersed and uniform size. The process is stable and reliable,easy to operate,high yields and suitable for industrial production.
