Journal of International Oncology 2015;(10):730-733
Objective To investigate the expressions of matrix metallopro-teinase-7 (MMP-7),basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)in NSCLC,and to elucidate the correlations among MMP-7,bFGF and MVD, as well as their relationships with cancer metastasis in NSCLC.Methods The expressions of MMP-7,bFGF and MVD were detected by immunohistochemical SP method in 80 cases of NSCLC and 40 cases of normal lung tissue,compare the expression of MMP-7 and bFGF in NSCLC and normal lung tissue,and then invest the rela-tionship between their expression and lymph node metastasis in NSCLC.The MVD was investigated within the CD34 positive slides,check the relationship between MVD and the expression of MMP-7 ,bFGF in NSCLC, and also its relationship with histology type,differentiation degree,lymph node metastasis and TNM stage. Results The positive ratesof MMP-7 and bFGF were significantly higher in NSCLC than those in normal lung tissue (70.0% vs 1 2.5%,χ2 =35.276,P =0.000;65.0% vs 1 0.0%,χ2 =32.41 1 ,P =0.000).The posi-tive rates of MMP-7 and bFGF were also significantly higher in group with lymph node metastasis compared to those group without lymph node metastasis (83.0% vs 51 .5%,χ2 =9.1 39,P =0.003;80.9% vs 42.4%,χ2 =1 2.584,P =0.000).The numbers of MVD were significantly higher in cases with MMP-7 and bFGF posi-tive expressions than those in cases with MMP-7 and bFGF negative expressions (46.78 ±1 1 .1 1 vs 31 .1 2 ± 7.62,t =5.831 ,P =0.000;45.05 ±1 0.97 vs 34.77 ±8.56,t =5.364,P =0.000).The number of MVD in group with lymph node metastasis was also significantly higher than that in group without lymph node metasta-sis (61 .32 ±21 .61 vs 40.52 ±1 8.31 ,t =3.865,P =0.008).The number of MVD in staging Ⅲ-Ⅳ group was significantly higher than that in stagingⅠ-Ⅱgroup (55.28 ±1 5.64 vs 41 .73 ±1 6.48,t =2.531 ,P =0.01 3).Conclusion The expression levels of MMP-7 and bFGF in NSCLC are high,and the positive rates of MMP-7 and bFGF are correlated with the lymphnode metastasis.The numbers of MVD are significantly higher in cases with MMP-7 and bFGF positive expressions than those in cases with MMP-7 and bFGF negative expre-ssions.MVD is correlated with lymph node metastasis and the TNM stage.It suggests that the expressions of MMP-7,bFGF and MVD may involve in the invasion and metastasis of NSCLC.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of renally inappropriate medication (RIM) on the frailty of elderly patients with diabetes. METHODS The data of elderly patients with diabetes mellitus admitted to a third-grade class A hospital in Yunnan province from January to December 2022 were collected, and Beers criteria (2019 edition) and Chinese version of FRAIL scale were used to evaluate RIM and the frailty of the patients; the patients were divided into the trial group (with RIM) and the control group (without RIM) according to whether there was RIM. The propensity score matching was used to balance confounding factors between two groups, and the influence of RIM on the frailty of elderly diabetic patients was analyzed by the Logistic regression model. RESULTS Among the 367 patients, 80 patients (21.80%) had RIM, the drugs involved RIM were spironolactone (82.56%), rivaroxaban (13.95%) and gabapentin (3.49%). After reaching the balance between groups using the propensity score matching method, the incidence of frailty was 77.94% in trial group and 27.94% in control group (P<0.001); the difference was not statistically significant in other confounding factors between the two groups (P>0.05). Results of Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of frailty in the experimental group was 3.118 times that of the control group (odds ratio was 3.118,95% confidence interval was 1.758-5.530, P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS RIM is a risk factor for the frailty of elderly patients with diabetes, which can be considered as an indicator for early identification and screening of the frailty of elderly diabetes patients.

As an exclusive Miao medicine of Honwing Pharma (Guizhou) Co. Ltd., Yifei Zhike capsules are both a prescription drug and an over-the-counter (OTC) drug. Its main ingredients include Ranunculus ternatus and Panax notoginseng. With the effects of nourishing Yin and moistening the lungs, as well as relieving cough and reducing phlegm, Yifei Zhike capsules are often used in the treatment of acute and chronic bronchitis, pulmonary tuberculosis, and other diseases. However, there is insufficient understanding of their efficacy, suitable syndromes, and safety in clinical practice, with a lack of relevant expert consensus on clinical application. To standardize their clinical application, 30 experts from the fields of respiratory medicine, pharmacy, and evidence-based medicine were invited to develop an Expert Consensus on the Clinical Application of Yifei Zhike Capsules (Consensus for short) through evidence-based medicine methods. The Consensus clarified the syndrome characteristics, disease stages, dosages, treatment courses, combined medication, and other norms in the treatment of acute/chronic bronchitis and pulmonary tuberculosis and could be applicable to clinical physicians and pharmacists in medical and health institutions at all levels. In disease diagnosis, it provided diagnostic criteria for traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine and clarified that the suitable traditional Chinese medicine syndrome was the syndrome of Qi-Yin deficiency with intermingled phlegm-blood stasis. Clinical studies have confirmed that Yifei Zhike capsules combined with standard anti-tuberculosis therapy can effectively improve the symptoms of pulmonary tuberculosis patients, increase the sputum smear conversion rate, and promote the absorption of lesions. When treating acute cough caused by respiratory tract infections, Yifei Zhike capsules can increase the markedly effective rate and the seven-day disappearance rate of cough symptoms. Meanwhile, recommendations for specific usage, dosages, and treatment courses were given for different diseases, and it was pointed out that long-term medication required key monitoring of adverse reactions. In safety, the adverse reactions of Yifei Zhike capsules involved multiple aspects such as the digestive system and allergic reactions, and pregnant women and women during menstruation were prohibited from using it. In addition, modern research has shown that Yifei Zhike capsules have an adjuvant therapeutic effect on tuberculous pleurisy and may be effective for inflammatory and benign pulmonary nodules. However, further research should be conducted on the toxicological safety of long-term medication. The formulation of the Consensus provides a scientific basis for the rational clinical application of Yifei Zhike capsules, which helps to improve clinical efficacy and reduce medication risks.
