1.Research progress on the clinical classification and treatment of metastatic Spinal Tumors
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2013;(14):869-872
The clinical classification of metastatic spinal tumors is based on the degree of malignancy, nervous system function, osteoclasia, and prognosis of patients. The application of this classification system is relatively simple. The assessment and evaluation of patients to estimate the period of survival can guide the individualized treatment of patients. Patients with clear surgical indications can choose to undergo a palliative operation, tumor resection, or total spondylectomy. Alternatively, other patients can opt to have mini-mally invasive surgery aside from the normal surgical approach. Stereotactic radiotherapy and intensity-modulated radiation therapy combined with the use of radiofrequency ablation, radiation, and other therapies can achieve local tumor control, relieve pain, and main-tain normal neurological function. Thus, the quality of life of the patient is improved. Percutaneous vertebroplasty, radiofrequency abla-tion, spinal endoscopy, and other modern forms of minimally invasive surgery will have more applications in the treatment of spinal metastatic tumors.

3.Research progress on the relationship between FAK and cancer
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2015;(2):116-119
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK), a type of protein tyrosine kinase in the cytoplasm, is highly expressed in many types of malignant tumors. FAK is named as such because of its close relationship with the cell adhesion function. Recent studies show that FAK is expressed in many tumor cells and has a definite relationship with cancer progress, metastasis, and prognosis. Accordingly, FAK has become one of the new tumor therapeutic targets that will bring new methods for tumor therapy.

5.Analysis of the psychological impact of medical disputes on clinical doctors and a discussion of counter-measures
Chinese Journal of Hospital Administration 2009;25(7):473-475
Objective Identifying the factors of psychological pressure from medical disputes on clinical doctors and possible solutions. Methods Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and the Occupational Stress Indicator (OSI) were called into play, to study 52 clinical doctors in a tertiary hospital in a city, who had encountered medical disputes in recent two years. In parallel, 63 clinical doctors without such disputes and 50 non-clinical workers were randomly selected as the control group for questionnaires. Results Clinical doctors with such an experience were commonly found to be anxious, and their SAS score (58. 27±11.38)averaged higher than those in the control group. Doctor-patient relationship, legal liabilities and clinical positions were found to be positively correlated to psychological pressure of clinical doctors. Conclusions Medical disputes tend to add to psychological pressure of the doctors. Clinical doctors deserve psychological counseling and training and improvement of their working conditions.
6.Subcortical ischemic vascular dementia
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2010;18(2):137-141
Subcortical ischemic vascular dementia is a subtype of vascular cognitive impairment. Its major pathological features are lacunar infarcts and deep white matter changes, and its major clinical manifestation is executive function impairment. Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) provides an opportunity for the study of pure subcorticai ischemic vascular dementia in the absence of Alzheimer's disease. There is currently lack of the gold standard for diagnosing subcortical ischemic vascular dementia. Imaging examination plays an important role in its diagnosis, while the treatment must first consider the control of vascular risk factors, especially hypertension.
7.Effect of Plantago depressa Willd. Extract on Chronic Nonbacterial Prostatitis in Rats
Herald of Medicine 2016;35(6):592-596
Objective To study the effect and mechanism of Plantago depressa Willd. extract on rats with chronic nonbacterial prostatitis. Methods Sixty rats were divided into six groups randomly: normal control group, model control group, cernilton group, high-, medium- and low- dose Plantago depressa Willd. extract group, ten rats in each group. Chronic nonbacterial prostatitis rat model was established in the animals except of normal control group. Rats in the cernilton group were administrated with cernilton solution( 100 mg . kg-1 ) . High, middle and low dose Plantago depressa Willd. extract groups were given 150, 300 and 600 mg . kg-1 of Plantago depressa Willd. extract, respectively. The rats in the normal control and model control group were treated with the same volume of purified water.The administration was performed once every day, and lasted for three weeks.Effects of Plantago depressa Willd.extract on prostate index (PI), prostate specific antigen (PSA), tumor necrosis factorα ( TNF-α) , interleukin-1β ( IL-1β) , cycloxygenase 2 ( COX-2) , prostaglandin E2( PEG2 ) , transforming growth factor-β1( TGF-β1 ) , and connective tissue growth factor ( CTGF ) levels and pathological changes of prostate tissue in rats were observed. Results PI and PSA levels of the normal control group were(0.8±0.3)mg.g-1 and(106.5±10.6)pg.mL-1, respectively;those of the model control group were(2.2±0.2)mg.g-1 and(319.4±23.4)pg.mL-1 respectively;Those of the cernilton group were(1.6±0.3)mg.g-1 and(179.5±13.7)pg.mL-1 respectively;Those of the low-, medium- and high- dose Plantago depressa Willd.extract groups were(1.8±0.4),(1.3±0.3),(0.8±0.3)mg.g-1 and(263.4±28.6),(178.5±21.5), (143.5±12.9)pg.mL-1, respectively.Compared with the model control group, PI and PSA were significantly decreased(P<0.01) , TNF-α, IL-1β, COX-2, PEG2 , TGF-β1 and CTGF levels in the prostate tissues were decreased ( P<0. 01 ) , and inflammatory cell infiltration and fibrosis of prostate tissue was significantly alleviated in the model control group. Conclusion This study confirms Plantago depressa Willd.extract exerts effective therapeutical effect on chronic nonbacterial prostatitis in rats.

9.The effect of brain metastases from NSCLC and treatment targeted plus radiotherapy on EGFR mutations
Chinese Journal of Radiation Oncology 2016;(3):296-300
Brain metastases (BM) are one of the main cause of death in patients with non small cell lung cancer ( NSCLC ).The prognosis is still poor, despite standard therapy based on surgery and radiotherapy.In recent years,with the deepening understanding of molecular mechanisms in lung cancer, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation might be considered as an effective therapeutic target for NSCLC with BM.Therefore,we review the current knowledge about the correlation between EGFR mutation with prevalence and prognosis in BM.
