The clinical guidelines of standard chemotherapy of metastatic colorectal cancer(mCRC) were mainly from the recommendation of national comprehensive cancer network(NCCN),CNCCN and euro- pean society for medical oncology(ESMO).The key to success of mCRC is how to understand and apply these clinical guidelines correctly.Along with the appearance of evidence by newer and better evidence-based medicine,there guidelines will be revised at any time.In the clinical application,the newest guideline should be used according to the practical status of our country,in order to imorove the therapeutic effect of mCRC.

Objective Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) is widely used as a simple noninvasive measure of arterial stiffness. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of baPWV as a predictor of the carotid artery atherosclerosis in the elderly. Methods A total of 721 elderly participants (mean±SD age, 70.3 5.6years) were enrolled in the current study. All participant underwent both baPWV measurement and B-mode ultrasound for the intima-media thickness. Carotid atherosclerosis (CAS) was defined as the present of carotid plaque or and/or intima media thickness for at least 1.1 mm. Results A multivariate logistic regression analysis reveals that age, sex, brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity, smoking and LDL-C level showed a significant correlation with the presence of CAS. The odds ratios of CAS associated with a 500cm/s increase of brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity were 2.378 [95% confidence interval, 1.36 to 4.00, P<0.05], 3.733 [95% confidence interval, 1.729 to 8.058, P<0.01], 4.438 [95% confidence interval, 1.659 to 11.803, P<0.01]. The baPWV significantly correlated with IMT by bivariate correlation analysis (r=0.39; p=0.001). After adjusting for factors influencing, baPWV all the same correlated with IMT (r=0.35; p=0.001).Conclusion These results indicate that brachial-ankle PWV is an independent predictor of CAS in the elderly.It also means that the direct measurement of arterial stiffness by this simple method may be of great help for the evaluation of carotid artherosclerosis, at least in the elderly.

AIM To observe the hypotensive effect of melatonin (MT) on two-kidney one-clip renal hypertensive (2K1C) rats and to explore its aortic mechanism. METHODS 2K1C rats were obtained by narrowing the left kidney artery; systolic blood pressure was measured by use of tail-cuff method; vascular actions of MT were measured using isolated blood vessel method. RESULTS MT reduced blood pressure of 2K1C rat significantly 〔(23.45?2.40) kPa versus (19.81?2.78) kPa, P

The study process of TCM syndrome spectra of hemopathy is the process to recognize the syndrome characteristics of the onset, development of hemopathy, it bases on norm of TCM symptoms and syndrome. In this course, it could not only find common feature of syndrome,but also analyze distribution regularity of TCM syndrome. Thus to establish sequence of hemopathic syndrome, and to provide the basis for clinic determination of treatment based on syndrome differentiation, and provide the foundation for finding correlation of TCM syndrome and target tests.

Objective To study the relationship between carotid intima media thicknes(IMT) and cerebral infarction in patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods The IMT of the carotid artery was measured by high resolution B mode ultrasound, the relationships between carotid IMT and risk factors of cerebrovascular disease were evaluated.Results The serum levels of fibrinogen, total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterol were significantly higher in diabetic subjects with cerebral infarction than those in control group ( P

Objective To evaluate the air quality in the long-distance bus with air conditioner and the uncomfortable index of the passengers during the trip. Methods The air quality in the long-distance buses with air conditioner which were running for 3 hours,5 hours,7 hours respectively was monitored and 200 passengers were investigated by questionnaire during the trip,Jan 2004 -Aug 2005. Results As the running time increasing,CO2 concentration significantly increased. The bacterium,fungus,PM10 and wind speed were increasing gradually,but still in the normal level. The temperature,CO,formaldehyde,benzene,toluene and dimethyl benzene did not increase. The hemolysis streptococcus was not found,the relative humidity droped a little but in normal level. The investigation results of questionnaire showed that 21.5%(43/200) passengers felt peculiar smell,64.5% (129/200)of them appeared lassitude symptom,43% (86/200)of them appeared the symptom of dizzy,thirsty and sore throat,21%(42/200)of them felt eye dry,14.5%(29/200)of them appeared the symptom of headache and breath-block,7%(14/200)of them felt nauseated and skin itch during the trip. Conclusion The CO2 pollution in the investigated long-distance buses is serious and this can impact the health of the passengers.

Objective To learn the roles of Helicobater pylori(Hp) colonization in shimofuri lesion formation of degestive tract and its transformation.Method Infective rate of Hp in biopsy specimens of gastric antrum and duodenum,degree of inflammation of the duodenal bulb mucosas were measured,and analyzed relationship of these indexes with Hp colonization in duodenal bulb mucosas,all of patients with shimofuri lesion were randomly divided into ranitidine suppressing acid group(ranitidine group) and anti-Hp therapy group(anti-Hp group),then two groups were secondly observed with gastroscope.Results The positive rate of Hp colonization in duodenal bulb was significantly difference in various phases of the disease(P

Objective To study the sub-chronic toxicity of lake water treated with effect microorganisms(EM).Methods One hundred and ten Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups,11 males and 11 females in each.Three groups were treated orally with lake water depurated with EM,at the doses of 125,250,500 ml/kg respectively,for 90 consecutive days.The other two groups were treated with the untreated lake water(250 ml/kg) and tap water,respectively.The animal's behavior,body weight,blood and organ tissue indicators were examined.Results No poisoning signs were observed in all animals,no significant difference was found in body weight,blood routine test indexes,the serum test indexes between all treated groups and control groups,and no significant pathological change in the organ tissues of all treated groups and control groups was seen.Conclusion The lake water depurated with EM at doses of 125 to 500 ml/kg may not induce sub-chronic toxicity in rats.

Objective:To investigate the different techniques and wave characteristic of applying non-invasive stimulation in blink reflex.Methods:Thirty volunteers participated in this study.Using the electrodiagnostic techniques,the orbital nerve and mental nerve were stimulated and the waves were respectively recorded at orbicularis oculi and levator labli superioris,then concluded the latency and amplitude of R1,R2,R2'.Results:The results of blink reflex were basically identical with the normative criteria.The wave of stimulating the orbital nerve and recording at levator labli superioris resembled BR.The images were steady and repeatable.The waves of stimulating mental nerve and recording at orbicularis oculi and levator labli superioris were unstable and partial R1 absent.Conclusion:The techniques of stimulating orbital nerve and recording at orbicularis oculi and levator labli superioris are valuable in the initial investigation of trigemino-facial reflex.The techniques of stimulating mental nerve and recording at orbicularis oculi and levator labli superioris can be used to examine assistantly.

Objective:To analyse the salivary cortisol changes in patients with temporomandibular disorders(TMD)after electrical stimulation,and the relationship between cortisol and pain catastrophizing.Methods:1 1 TMD and 1 1 healthy subjects were evoked by electrical stimulation.The saliva samples were collested before test,50 s and 1 00 s of stimulation after test seperately.Salivary cortisol was analysed by ELISA kit.The pain catastrophizing scale(PCS)was answered by all the subjects before stimulation.Data were statis-tically analysed.Results:The salivary cortisol concentration in TMD patients was higher than that in the controls(P <0.05).After stimulation,it showed a downward trend.No interaction between time and groups.The total scores of PCS including three indexes(ru-mination,magnification,helpless)were positively correlated with salivary cortisol concentration.Conclusion:The unpredictable stress causes high level of cortisol.which is related to pain catastrophizing.
