By staging radiation pneumonitis’ syndrome and discussing the pathogenesis, the course of radiation pneumonitis is divided into acute phase, lag phase and anaphase. Acute phase is treated with clearing heat and resolving phlegm, cooling ying and nourishing yin; lag phase is treated with supplementing qi and nourishing yin, promoting blood circulation and resolving phlegm; anaphase is treated with nourishing lung and strengthening kidneys, resolving stasis and dredging collaterals.

Objective To assess the long-term survival and prognosfie factors in a series of patients with distal bile duet carcinoma. Methods A retrospective clinical analysis was made on 76 cases of distal bile duct cancer who were admitted into our hospital from January 1996 to December 2006. Clinicopathologic factors with possible prognostic significanees were selected and analyzed. Survival was calculated with the Kaplan-Meier method. A multivariate analysis of these individuals was performed using the Cox proportional Hazards Model. Results There were 46 males and 30 females. The age ranged from 21 to 88 years with a mean of 65.21 patients received palliative surgery including, bypass procedure, intraoperative biliary stenting, or percutaneous transhepatie biliary drainage. Radical resection was performed on 42 cases and the 1-, 3- and 5-yeur survival rates were 88.0%, 41.3% and 29.2% respectively. 38 cases died of liver metastasis or recurrence. In multivariate analysis, surgical procedure (P = 0.006) and liver metastasis (P = 0.008), but not sex, age, invasion of pancreas, invasion of duodenum, diameter or differentiation of tumor, were significant independent prognostic factors. Conclusions Radical resection is only curative treatment modality. Prevention on postoperative liver metastasis is essential for improving survival.

Objective To study the role of Ⅲb isoform of human fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1-Ⅲb) in PANC-1 pancreatic cancer cells. Methods The plasmid of human full-length FGFR1-Ⅲb isoform，pSVK4/FGFR1-Ⅲb, was stable transfected into cultured PNAC-1 pancreatic cancer cell lines facilitated by lipofectamine. The function of FGFR1-Ⅲb in transfected pancreatic cancer cells were examined by MTT assay, soft agar assay, cell migration assay, single cell movement assay, In vivo tumorigenicity assay. Results The basal anchorage-dependent and -independent cell growth was significantly inhibited. Additionally, FGFR1-Ⅲb expression inhibited single cell movement and in vitro invasion as determined by time-lapse microscopy and boyden chamber assay as well as in vivo tumor formation and growth in nude mice. Microscopic analysis of the xenograft tumors revealed a reduced Ki-67 labelling, lower amount of tumor necrosis and higher grade of differentiation in FGFR1-Ⅲb expressing tumors. Conclusion We identified a functional human FGFR mRNA splice variant that inhibits the transforming potential of pancreatic cancer cells.

Objective: To study the effect of postoperative application of tranexamic acid on recovery and prognosis of unilateral total hip arthroplasty. Methods: One hundred and twenty patients who received unilateral total hip arthroplasty in 541st General Hospital of Dongzhen Town from August 2016 to August 2018 were divided into observation group and control group by random number table method, with 60 cases in each group. The control group received intravenous injection of tranexamic acid 10 min before skin incision after anesthesia; on the basis of the control group, the observation group was given tranexamic acid intravenously again 3 h after operation, and the control group was no longer given repeated injection of tranexamic acid. The hemorrhage, hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit(HCT), hip joint Harris score and complications were compared between the two groups. Results: There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss and transfusion between the two groups (P>0.05); the drainage volume, total blood loss, dominant blood loss and recessive blood loss in the observation group were lower than those in the control group [(227.43 ± 20.14) ml vs. (280.91 ± 23.56) ml, (601.01 ± 42.84) ml vs. (667.04 ± 49.21) ml, (281.93 ± 18.50) ml vs. (322.06 ± 21.23) ml, (330.94 ± 21.73) ml vs. (370.03 ± 25.90) ml] (P<0.05). After operation 3 d, the levels of Hb and HCT in observation group were higher than those in control group [(117.07 ± 9.60) g/L vs. (102.19 ± 8.31) g/L, (35.05 ± 2.91)% vs. (32.01 ± 2.77)%] (P<0.05). After operation 2 weeks and 1 month after operation, the hip joint Harris score in observation group was higher than that in control group [(52.03 ± 4.02) scores vs. (48.37 ± 5.05) scores, (67.86 ± 5.29) scores vs. (61.23±5.10) scores] (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the occurrence of intermuscular venous thrombosis, local hematoma and incision exudation between the two groups(P>0.05). Conclusions On the basis of preoperative application of tranexamic acid, combined postoperative application of tranexamic acid can significantly reduce the blood loss after unilateral total hip arthroplasty, and help the early recovery of joint function, without increasing complications and with high safety.
