Postoperative hydrocephalus is one of the most common complications in resection of lateral ventricle trigone tumor, which can seriously affect the prognoses of patients. Possible influencing factors include tumor resection degrees, postoperative meningitis, intraoperative intraventricular hemorrhage, and cerebrospinal fluid drainage tube placement, but the specific mechanism is still unclear. In this paper, the influencing factors and possible mechanisms of hydrocephalus after lateral ventricle trigone tumor are reviewed as follows.

Solid dispersions of the insoluble compound CHMFL-KIT-110 were prepared by solvent method with polyvinyl caprolactam-polyvinyl acetate-polyethylene glycol graft copolymer (Soluplus),Poloxamer 407,PEG 6000,Copovidone (Kollidon VA64) as carriers and SLS,Tween 80,Cremophor RH40 as solubilizers. The optimal formulation was screened and obtained with dynamic solubilities and supersaturation performances as indexes. The final product was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR),differential thermal analysis (DTA) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD). The stability and pharmacokinetic behavior in rats were also investigated. Results suggested that when the weight ratio of CHMFL-KIT-110/Soluplus/SLS was 1∶4∶0.5,dynamic solubility of the solid dispersions was significantly improved with no recrystallization. In the accelerated condition (40 °C,75% RH) for 30 days,CHMFL-KIT-110 in the solid dispersions was still amorphous with no crystal observed. The results of pharmacokinetics in rats showed that the cmax and AUC0→t of CHMFL-KIT-110 solid dispersions were 373.1 times and 358.7 times higher than those of free drugs,respectively. These results help to understand the formulation development and clinical practice of CHMFL-KIT-110.

Objective To study patient delay and the influencing factors of the elderly patients with pulmonary tuberculosis(PTB),so as to provide evidence for developing effective prevention and control strategies. Methods Derived the information from PTB management information system in 2010-2019 of the tuberculosis patients who were aged 60 years or older in Huai'an City, described and analyzed the influencing factors of patient delay. Results The median time of PTB patients delay in Huaian was 21 day, while the rate was 65.91%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis results showed that compared with permanent residents, city dwellers, the first diagnosis unit specialized hospital, and the patient source referral, the patient delay risks of the floating residents(OR = 2.942 , 95% CI: 2.461-3.518), the country dwellers(OR = 1.528,95% CI :1.377-1.697), the first diagnosis unit general hospital(OR = 1.203,95% CI: 1.087-1.333), and the patient source recommendation (OR = 2.395,95% CI: 1.960-2.928)were higher, Compared with the peasants(OR = 0.315 , 95% CI : 0.213-0.512), new patients(OR = 0.812 , 95% CI : 0.689-0.974) and sputum smear positive patients(OR = 0.866 , 95% CI : 0.780-0.962), the patient delay risks of the non-peasants, recurrent patients, and sputum negative patients were lower. Conclusion The patient delay of the elderly patients with pulmonary tuberculosis(PTB)in Huaian was serious, the influencing factors of patient delay were type of household registration, current residence, occupation, type of first-time unit, source of patient , classification of treatment, and the sputum test results.

Tubulin has been shown to be an effective target for the development of cytotoxic agents against prostate cancer. Previously, we reported that Lx2-32c is an anti-tubulin agent with high binding affinity to tubulin. In this study, we investigated the potential of Lx2-32c to act as an effective cytotoxic agent in the treatment of prostate cancer. MTT assays showed that Lx2-32c was cytotoxic to all tested prostate cancer cell lines. The Lx2-32c-treated cells typically exhibited a rounded morphology associated with the onset of apoptosis, as evidenced by immunocytochemical staining. Human prostate cancer cell lines treated with Lx2-32c arrest in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle and the treatment is associated with an increased ratio of cells in the sub-G0/G1 phase as determined by flow cytometry. Furthermore, expression of the cleaved form of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase in prostate cancer cell lines treated with Lx2-32c was shown by Western blotting assay. Xenograft implants of LNCaP and PC3-derived tumors in nude mice showed that Lx2-32c treatment significant inhibited tumor growth with effects equivalent to those of docetaxel. These findings demonstrate the potential of Lx2-32c as a candidate antitumor agent for the treatment of prostate cancer.
