Objective To explore the correlation of pretreatment EBV DNA load, EBV EA-IgA and VCA-IgA antibodies levels with the clinical characteristics, curative effect and prognosis of the patients with early-stage extranodal nasal-type NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTCL). Methods We analyzed the clinical features and prognostic factors of 78 ENKTCL patients. Results Positive rates of pretreatment EBV DNA, VCA-IgA and EA-IgA were 43.6%, 20.5% and 14.1%, respectively. EBV DNA was significantly associated with Ann Arbor stage, primary site, PTI and non-CR (all

Objective To explore the prognostic value of pretreatment hematological indicators in children and adolescents with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods We performed a retrospective analysis on the medical records of 79 children and adolescents (≤20 years old) with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Before treatment, all patients underwent hematological tests, and patients received intensity-modulated radiotherapy alone or intensity-modulated radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy, targeted, and other comprehensive treatment modes. The follow-up endpoints were overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Results Age≤14 years, no concurrent chemotherapy, pretreatment hematological indicators (high NLR, high PLR, high LDH, and high LAR) were associated with poor OS and PFS in children and adolescents with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (all

Objective:The respiratory waveform of lung cancer patients based on 4D-CT respiratory gating was analyzed to evaluate the accuracy of gating during radiotherapy, and to explore the off-target in the 4D-CT respiratory gating radiotherapy.Methods:Clinical data of 18 patients with lung cancer admitted to Radiotherapy Department of Jiangsu Cancer Hospital were collected to obtain the respiratory waveform data during 4D-CT respiratory gating radiotherapy. The waveform in each treatment working cycle was compared with the waveform in 4D-CT scan to study whether there was a possibility of the off-target in the treatment of lung cancer patients.Results:There were 154 treatment sessions and 20,790 treatment breathing cycles in 18 patients, among which the threshold of gated opening beam miss amplitude (Δm-en) was greater than 0 in 95 treatment breathing cycles in 7 patients, accounting for 0.46% of all breathing cycles, and the threshold of gated closing beam miss amplitude (Δm-dis) was greater than 0 in 1419 treatment breathing cycles in 13 patients, accounting for 6.83% of all cycles. Among the 13 patients withΔm-dis greater than 0, actual tumor range of motion (R G) was greater than the sum of the value of target margin (M) and the value of plan tumor range of motion (R T) in 7 patients, R G was more than 1.5 times of M+R T in 7 patients, and there were also 7 patients in the phase of rapid rise and fall of respiratory curve. The correlation efficients between R G-M-R T and the percentage of beam on miss phase (T en%) and the percentage of beam closing off phase (T dis%) were 0.41 and 0.57, respectively. Conclusion:When R G is more than 1.5 times of M+R T value and the gating beam on phase contains the phases in the rapid rise and fall of the respiratory curve, the possibility of the off-target during radiotherapy is significantly increased.
