Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of S-1 plus nedaplatin and standard second-line chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced lung adenocarcinoma that failure in the first-line chemotherapy.Methods A total of 95 cases with IIIb-IV stage non-small cell lung adenocarcinoma that failure in the first-line chemotherapy was included in this paper and divided into two groups:group A(n=5 1 )was treated with S-1 combined with nedaplatin chemotherapy;group B(n=44)was treated with pemetrexed or docetaxel single-agent chemotherapy,21 days were a cycle of treatment,and totally 4 cycles of chemotherapy. Results The objective response rates(CRR)in group A and group B were 33.0% and 19.3%respectively(P<0.05),and the difference was significant;the clinical benefit rates(CBR)in two groups were 57. 1% and 40.9% respectively (P <0.05 ),and there was significant difference between two groups. The median perfect forward secrecy(PFS)was 99 days and 40 days respectively,and the difference between two groups was significant(P<0.05 ). The one-year survival rates in groups A and B were 5 1.3% and 33.7%(P<0.05 ),and there was significant difference(P<0.05 ). Logistic multi-factor regression analysis showed that the ORR and CER had no correlation with the gender, age, proportion score (PS )and the first-line chemotherapy selection. Conclusion S-1 plus nedaplatin chemotherapy is better than the standard second-line chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced lung adenocarcinoma that failure in the first-line chemotherapy,with the advantage of good tolerance,and it can provide a new choice for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung adenocarcinoma.

Autophagy is a common phenomenon which widely ex-ists in eukaryotic cells. Researches have shown that autophagy plays a critical role in maintaining cellular hemostasis, cell com-ponents update and keeping a normal physiological state. In re-cent years, the study has found that autophagy is closely related to the growth, the development of cardiovascular diseases and tumors. Further studies show that in different pathological condi-tions, autophagy could both promote angiogenesis and inhibit the formation of blood vessels. Therefore, it is particularly critical to elucidate the mechanisms of autophagy in the regulation of angio-genesis in different pathological conditions. The role of autophagy in cardiovascular diseases especially in the regulation of angio-genesis is discussed in this paper. Besides, the paper also in-cludes the discussion about the mechanisms of autophagy in the regulation angiogenesis, which may provide references for follow-up research and clinical treatment.

Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated protein 1 (TRAP1),as one of the main members of the heat shock protein 90 family, resists oxidative stress-induced apoptosis as well as predominantly maintains the integrity of mitochondria and cellu-lar homeostasis. Abnormal expression of TRAP1 was herein closely related to the onset and progression of a wide variety of tumors. As a key regulatory factor mediating energy metabolism within tumor cells, TRAP1 may be able to kill them by interfer-ing with such metabolism. More importantly, the abnormal ex-pression of TRAP1 played a less important role in normal cells, allowing TRAP1 to be a particularly attractive target as it can be used in tumor treatment or interference. The relationship be-tween abnormal expression of TRAP1 protein and tumor onset was reviewed. Besides, the mechanism by which disordered TRAP1 protein expression induced tumor formation was postula-ted, which may provide references for future research and clini-cal treatment.

Tumor metastasis is one of the most important biologi-cal characteristics of malignant tumor, and it is also the main factor resulting in poor prognosis and leading to failure of treat-ment. In recent years, studies have shown that the extracellular matrix ( ECM) of tumor microenvironment plays a critical role in tumor metastasis. Tumor ECM fibrogenesis could form the cross-linked network structure, which not only provides nutrition and support to tumor, also it is necessary to tumor growth and inva-sion. These research results indicate that blocking ECM fibro-genesis may exert an inhibitory effect on tumor metastasis. Therefore, targeting ECM fibrogenesis has become a particularly attractive strategy as it can be used in the treatment of metasta-sis-related diseases. The ECM fibrogenesis in tumor is reviewed in this paper as well as the treatment strategies on tumor metas-tasis by targeting ECM fibrogenesis, which may provide refer-ences for follow-up research and clinical treatment.

OBJECTIVE: The aims of the present study were to explore the occurrence of childhood trauma and importantly to determine the impacts of childhood trauma on psychosocial features in a Chinese sample of young adults. METHODS: A survey was carried out in a group of 555 university students by using Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS), Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Dysfunctional Attitudes Questionnaire (DAS), Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ), and Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS). The moderate-severe cut-off scores for CTQ were used to calculate the prevalence of childhood trauma, and then psychosocial features were compared between individuals with and without childhood trauma. RESULTS: A proportion of 18.6% of university students had self-reported childhood trauma exposures. Subjects with childhood trauma reported higher scores of SDS, SAS, DAS, and psychoticism and neuroticism dimensions of EPQ (t=4.311–5.551, p < 0.001); while lower scores of SSRS and extraversion dimension of EPQ (t=-4.061– -3.039, p < 0.01). Regression analyses further revealed that scores of SAS and DAS were positively (Adjusted B=0.211–0.230, p < 0.05), while scores of SSRS were negatively (Adjusted B=-0.273– -0.240, p < 0.05) associated with specific CTQ scores. CONCLUSION: Childhood trauma is still a common social and psychological problem. Individuals with childhood trauma show much more depression, anxiety, distorted cognition, personality deficits, and lower levels of social support, which may represent the social and psychological vulnerability for developing psychiatric disorders after childhood trauma experiences.
