Pancreatic cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related death in the world due to its high malignancy, difficult in early diagnosis, poor treatment efficacy, and high mortality. In recent years, benefiting from the progress of combined chemotherapy and neoadjuvant therapy, the prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer has been improved to a certain extent. However, compared with other tumors, progress of precision medicine in pancreatic cancer is slow. The authors introduce the latest progress and difficulties in precision medicine of pancreatic cancer including molecular classification based on single gene and omics, monitoring tumor progression and guide treatment by minimally invasive liquid biopsy, as well as targeting therapy and immuno-therapy, in order to accelerate the development of precision medicine of pancreatic cancer.

AIM: To study the infiltration of polymorphonuclear neutrophils ( PMNs ) after conjunctival flap covering in alkali-burned cornea.
●METHODS: Rabbit cornea alkali-burned model was made, then 50 rabbits were randomly divided into the experimental group ( n=25 ) and the control group ( n=25 ) . At the same time the surgery of conjunctival flap covering was given to rabbits of the experimental group. The condition developing of alkali-burned cornea was observed by slit lamp biomicroscopy, and took photos in two groups. The infiltration of PMNs was identified by hematoxylin eosin ( HE) staining in different periods.
●RESULTS:The quantity of PMNs increased on the 3d, reached the lower level on 7d, shown a peak on the 14d, then decreased gradually. PMNs level of the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group, and the difference of 3, 14 and 21d was significant (P<0. 05).
●CONCLUSION: During the wound healing process, alkali - burned cornea has close relation with the infiltration of PMNs. The treatment of conjunctival flap covering for the severe alkali-burned cornea was found to have good effect.

Objective To observe the relationship of awake bispectral index (BISawake) and the postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). Methods 100 patients aged 60~75 years with ASA status Ⅰ~Ⅱ, underwent elective lower abdominal surgery with intravenous anesthesia (propofol, remifentanyl and rocuronium). The BIS was adjusted in 40~60 during the surgery. Their cognitive function was assessed with the neuropsychological test battery commended by International study of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (ISPOCD). Results 8 patients withdrew for unwilling or serious complications. The BISawake was more than 65 in 68 patients (group A), and less than 65 in 24 patients (group B). The difference of the verbal learning immediate and delayed of Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised was more in the group B than in the group A. Conclusion Lower BISawake may be associated with the decline of postoperative cognitive function.

Objective To explore the relationship between cough variant asthma (CVA) and mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) infection.Methods Fifty children with CVA were chosen as the experimental group at random,and 50 children with acute upper respiratory infection,who went to the hospital in the same time and with similar age,were chosen as control group.The MP-IgM of children in both groups were tested by the granule agglutinating method.Results Significant difference (? 2=9.013 P

Objective To explore the possibility of hearing protection in acoustic neurinoma (AN) resection and to evaluate the effect of dynamic auditory monitoring and the effect of oto-endoscope for hearing protection. Methods From July 2003 to July 2007, there were a total of 138 cases of AN received surgical treatment. Continuous hearing monitoring was conducted in 18 cases with residual hearing. In these 18 cases, there were 6 males and 12 females, with 12 cases in left side and 6 cases in right. Fifteen cases were solitary AN, 3 cases were diagnosed as neurofibromeatosis Ⅱ. Maximal diameters of the tumor varied between 12 and 33 millimeters with an average of 19. 9 millimeters. All cases were operated on by retrosigmoid approach with routine facial nerve monitoring. Ten cases were assisted by oto- endoscope. Eighteen cases were performed accompanying continuous auditory brainstem response (ABR) and electro-cochleogram (EcochG). The patients were given routine hearing function test 7 to 10 days after operation, and reexamined 6 months to 1 year. The duration of follow-up ranged 6 months to 2. 5 years. Hearing data of the last time was thought as the judging result. Preoperative and postoperative hearing standard refer to (AAO-HNS)classifying. Results In all 18 cases, tumors were rsected completely in 16 cases, but sub-totally removed in 2 cases which were Ⅱ neurofibromeatosis. There was no mortality and no severe complication in this series. All the 18 cases had no facial paralysis before operation, and during operation facial nerves in 18 cases were kept anatomic integrity. According to House-Brackmann grade system, for 18 AN patients 7 days after operation only 50.0% (9/18) were kept at grade Ⅰ to Ⅱ, but 88.9% (16/18) were kept at grade Ⅰ to Ⅱ 6 months after operation. Out of 18 cases, hearing function were preserved in 11 cases (61.1%, 11/18) . After operation, there were 4 cases at hearing grade A, 4 cases at hearing grade B, 2 cases at hearing grade C and 1 cases at heating grade D. In all 18 cases, there were 5 cases with tumor diameter more than 20 millimeters, in which only 2 cases of them preserved hearing function (2/5). However, 9 cases preserved their hearing function in the other 13 cases whose tumors diameter less than 20 millimeters (69. 2% ,9/13). In 10 cases assisted by oto-endoscope, 8 cases obtained hearing protection (80.0% ,8/10)and 2 cases lost hearing. During operative monitoring, when drilling posterior lip of internal auditory canal (IAC), dragging and electric coagulating nearby IAC, especially clamping labyrinthine artery, removing tumor in IAC or electric coagulating arachnoid blood vessel on the top of tumor tissue, the ABR waves were affected greatly. Conclusions For the AN patient with preoperative residual hearing, it was necessary to protect hearing by combining continuous auditory monitoring with oto- endoscope technique. Based on these efforts the patient could preserve applicable hearing after operation. Whether or not arachnoidal on the top of AN remain and the conditions about blood supplying were the main factors that affect postoperative hearing. Moreover trauma of labyrinthine artery was the key to postoperative hearing loss.

Objective This objective of the study was to analyze the factors related to being recaptured and condom use among low-fee female sex workers (FSWs) to provide reference in developing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) intervention strategy. Methods Physical examination certificates were designed by Zhongshan County Center for Disease Control and Prevention to record HIV and syphilis test results for low-fee FSWs from 2013 to 2015. Low-fee FSWs were asked to show physical examination certificates in the next intervention and test. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze factors associated with being captured with physical examination certificates. Generalized linear mixed model was used to analyze factors associated with condom use with clients. Results A total of 220 low-fee FSWs were recruited by using physical examination certificates and received 389 interviews from 2013 to 2015. The proportions of HIV positive and syphilis positive were 4.2% (9/213) and 30.0% (64/213) respectively among those who had HIV and syphilis test. Results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that low-fee FSWs who had been FSWs for more than 4 years (OR=2.95, 95% CI：1.35-6.45), and worked in the local county in the past 30 days (OR=11.74, 95% CI: 5.26-26.20), were more likely to be captured with physical examination certificates. Results of generalized linear mixed model showed that those who were captured at least once (OR=3.33, 95% CI: 1.34-8.27), had junior middle school education and above (OR=22.79, 95% CI: 3.75-138.57), had high HIV knowledge (OR=3.57, 95% CI: 1.52-8.38), and charged more than 30 yuan for vaginal sex (OR=30.68, 95% CI: 12.57-74.90), were more likely to use condom consistently. Conclusions Physical examination certificates could be used for low-fee FSWs surveillance and intervention and tracking their HIV and syphilis status. The intervention strategy should take these into consideration.
