In recent years, with the development of some new techniques based on bronchoscopic skills, such as endobronchial ultrasonography, autofluorescence bronchoscopy, electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy, fibered confocal fluorescence microendoscopy and optic coherence tomography of the advent of technology, which solved the shortcomings of traditional technology from different areas and dimensions. Although these techniques need to be improved and clinical verified further, it was believed that the great impact on diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer should be made by them.

Aim To investigate the gender differences in electrophysiology and neuroanatomy of myelinated and unmyelinated visceral and baroreceptor afferent neurons(VANs and ABNs) of adult rats.Methods VANs and ABNs were isolated enzymatically and Vagus-nodose slice preparation was also applied in this study.For identification of ABNs,aortic depressor nerve(ADN) was labeled using fluorescent dye.Whole-cell patch technique was used to record action potential(AP).Electronic microscopy was selected for morphological analysis of ADN.Results(1) A-and C-type VANs were identified and significant differences of AP discharge profiles between female and male were not established;(2) except for the traditionally classified A-and C-types,myelinated Ah-type VGNs were also identified with faster conduction velocity,lower firing threshold,and higher neuronal excitability.Importantly,these Ah-types were found in female rats with a similar frequency like A-types but rarely seen in males.(3) Ah-type ABNs were also identified by fluorescence.(4) Morphological data showed that myelinated fiber in ADN was ~25% of total and this result was consistent with our electrophysiological data.(5) Firing frequency of Ah-types(20~40 Hz) was lowered than that of A-types(40~150 Hz,P

Carcinoma of the esophagogastric junction can be radically resected through thorax or abdomen.Because abdominal operation can achieve more ideal abdominal lymph node dissection and less injury of respiratory function,it is ideal for the elderly patients and patients with poor pulmonary function.The classic laparoscopic radical gastrectomy needs a small abdominal incision for making tubular stomach and installation of stapling devices.All the procedures were completed via the main operating trocar.In November of 2011,a 65-year-old male patient with poor pulmonary function and carcinoma of the esophagogastric junction underwent modified total laparoscopic esophagogastric anastomosis.During the operation,the thorax esophagus was mobilized about 5 cm above the esophageal hiatus,then it was pulled to the abdominal cavity and transected.After inserting the OrVil via the mouth,the esophagogastric anastomosis was done.The operation went through smoothly and the procedure was completed conveniently and quickly.The patient recovered well after operation with no local recurrence and metastasis.

Objective To promote the successful treatments of massive hemoptysis by summarizing the clinical data of 14 patients receiving surgery.Methods 14 cases of massive hemoptysis were retrospectively analysed,Eight male and 6 femal,aged 27-64 (45 ± 18) years including the application of CT,bronchoscopy and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).Results 14 patients received preoerative bronchoscopy and emergency operation.In addition,hymoptysis had not occurred after the surgery in these cases.Conclusion The standardized clinical pathways for massive hemoptysis and the application of preoerative bronchoscopy is essential for emergency treatment of massive hemoptysis.

Bronchiectasis combined with pulmonary carcinoma in situ is very rare condition.This study reported four cases and reviewed some literatures.The data of 66 cases treated from August 2012 to October 2013,whose initial diagnoses as bronchiectases were analysed.Four cases were diagnosed postoperatively as bronchiectasis with pulmonary carcinoma in situ after sugery,accounted for 6％ of surgical patients for bronchiectasis.Bronchiectasis has the risk of combined with pulmonary carcinoma in situ,this should be brought to the attention.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for childhood acute leukemia complicated with streptococcus mitis bacteriaemia and to explore a better therapeutic regimen of antibiotics.Methods Seventy-eight cases of childhood acute leukemia complicated with bacteriaemia hospitalized in Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University from January 2012 to December 2016 were collected,among them there were 8 cases (10.26％) caused by streptococcus mitis.The susceptible factors,clinical manifestations,drug susceptibility,treatments and outcomes of 8 cases of streptococcus mitis bacteriaemia were summarized and analyzed.Results All of 8 cases were attacked during the agranulocytosis phase lasting for more than 1 week after chemotherapy for acute leukemia.Four cases of them had been exposed to the third-generation cephalosporins for more than 7 days,and 5 cases exposed to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) for more than 10 days.The incidence of remittent fever,shiver,stomatitis and pneumonia was 100.0％ (8/8 cases),62.5％ (5/8 cases),62.5％ (5/8 cases) and 62.5％ (5/8 cases),respectively.And severe pneumonia occurred at a rate of 37.5％ (3/8 cases).The sensitivity to Linezolid,Vancomycin,Penicillin and Cefotaxime was 100.0％,100.0％,37.5％ and 25.0％,respectively.Five of the 7 cases treated with Meropenem had a fever 3 days later and then they took Linezolid as a replacement according to the drug sensitivity.One case was treated with Cefoperazone-Sulbactam.The duration time of fever,positive blood culture,agranulocytosis and course of antibiotics therapy was 1-19 d(10.4 d on average),4-22 d(13.4 d on average),10-30 d (21.6 d on average),9-26 d (18.3 d on average),respectively.Among 3 patients with severe pneumonia,1 patient received the respirator assisted ventilation for 1 week.Conclusions Streptococcus mitis is one of the major causes of severe infection among children with acute leukemia.Agranulocytosis after chemotherapy,stomatitis,exposure to PPI and antibiotics may be the risk factors for streptococcus mitis infection.Fever,stomatitis,respiratory and digestive symptoms are the common clinical manifestations.Streptococcus mitis is resistant to Penicillin and Cefotaxime,but sensitive to Linezolid,which can shorten the course of infection and improve the outcomes.Thus,Linezolid may serve as an optional therapy for streptococcemia mitis bacteriaemia.

Objective To compare volumetric size, conformity index (CI), degree of inclusion (DI) of internal gross target volumes (IGTV) delineated on 4D-CT-MIP and PET-CT images for primary thoracic esophageal cancer. Methods Fifteen patients with thoracic esophageal cancer sequentially underwent enhanced 3D-CT, 4D-CT and PET-CT simulation scans. IGTVMIP was obtained by contouring on 4D-CT maximum intensity projection ( MIP). The PET contours were determined with nine different threshold methods (SUV≥2?0, 2?5, 3?0, 3?5), the percentages of the SUVmax(≥20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%) and manual contours. The differences in size, conformity index (CI), degree of inclusion ( DI) of different volumes were compared. Results The volume ratios ( VRs) of IGTVPET2. 5 to IGTVMIP , IGTVPET20% to IGTVMIP, IGTVPETMAN to IGTVMIP were 0?86, 0?88, 1?06, respectively, which approached closest to 1. The CIs of IGTVPET2?0,IGTVPET2.5,IGTVPET20%,IGTVPETMAN and IGTVMIP which were 0?55, 0?56, 0?56, 0?54,0?55, respectively, were significantly larger than other CIs of IGTVPET and IGTVMIP (Z= -3?408-2?215,P <0?05). There were no statistical significance in the DIs of IGTVMIP and IGTVPET2.5,IGTVMIP and IGTVPET20%, IGTVMIP and IGTVPETMAN(0?77,0?82,0?71,0?67, 0?68,0?82,P>0?05). Conclusions The targets delineated based on SUV threshold setting of≥2?5, 20% of the SUVmax and manual contours on PET images correspond better with the target delineated on maximum intensity projection of 4D-CT images than other SUV thresholding methods.

Objective Summarize the experience of diagnosis and treatment of esophageal rupture.Methods Twelve cases of esophageal rupture were treated with surgical intervention and clinical data were analyzed retrospectively.Diagnosis was confirmed in all patients by chest X-cays,Closed thoracic drainage,upper gastrointestinal contrast,chest CT scan and gastroscopy.In this series,there were 6 cases of spontaneous esophageal rupture,2 cases of iatrogenic esophageal rupture,4 cases of foreign body in esophagus rupture.For surgical treatment of 8 cases,including emergency esophageal stitching issue and diaphragmatic muscle or greater omentum to cover 6 cases;Esophageal ligation and resection of rupture area on both closes of the near and far,phase ii gastroesophageal anastomosis of esophagus resection in 2 cases,including 1 case of esophagus repair failure after turning the operation).Esophageal resection of gastroesophageal anastomosis in 1 case (for into the outer court misdiagnosed patients);4 cases were conservative.Results Initial diagnosis of spontaneous esophageal rupture and iatrogenic esophageal rupture 7 patients were cured,17 to 53 days of hospital stay,Follow-up for 3 months to 5 years,no esophageal related complications.Exception 1 patient died of postoperative infection(misdiaguosed for a long time).4 cases of esophageal foreign bodies to rupture were cured and these cases' fissure were less than 5 mm by chest CT scan and gastroscope diagnosis.Conclusion Complete collection of medical history,chest X-cays,Closed thoracic drainage,upper gastrointestinal contrast,chest CT scan and gastroscopy may clear diagnosis.Choose the proper method according to the patients as early as possible by general closed gap is the key to the treatment,at the same time be adequate drainage,control of infection and nutrition support treatment.

Objective To study the effects of rituximab combined with CHOP chemotherapy on serum Thymidine kinase 1 (TK-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma,and to provide guidance for clinical research.Methods A total of 24 patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma treated in our hospital from January 2013 to March 2016 were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group,and each with 12 cases.All patients were examined before and after treatment,the control group was only treated with CHOP chemotherapy,and the observation group was treated with rituximab combined with CHOP chemotherapy.The patients were followed up within 1-2 years after treatment.The therapeutic effects of all patients were observed,the TK-1 and VEGF levels were measured and the incidence rate of adverse reactions was recorded.Results The efficiency rates of patients in the observation group and the control group were 66.67％ and 50.00％,respectively after treatment,and the observation group was significantly better than the control group,the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05);the TK-1 and VEGF levels of the two groups were significantly decreased after treatment (P＜0.05),there was a statistically significant difference.But the two indexes of observation group was significantly lower than the control group,the difference was significant (P＜0.05);the control group showed 1 case of liver dysfunc tion after treatment,4 cases of gastrointestinal dysfunction,1 case of decreased white blood cells,while the observation group were 1,3 and 1 case,respectively.There were no significant differences between two groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion With the treatment of rituximab combined with CHOP chemotherapy,serum TK-1 and VEGF levels of patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma decreased significantly,the poor prognosis has been significantly improved,and this treatment is worth popularizing in clinical application.
