Objective To investigate the short-term efficacy and safety of gefitinib combined with dendritic cells-cytokine induced killer (DC-CIK) cells in the treatment of advanced lung adenocarcinoma.Methods Fifty patients with lung adenocarcinoma who in previous had underwent radiotherapy and first-line chemotherapy failure received DC-CIK in combination with gefitinib treatment,blood count changes,imaging data,carcinoembryonic antigen and changes in the quality of life before and after treatment were compared and evaluated.Results DC-CIK could improve effectively and relieve bone marrow suppression response after chemotherapy and significantly increase the WBC content of blood (P ＜ 0.01).After treatment,the tumor carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) was significantly lower in patients (P ＜ 0.01).Fifty cases of patients in complete remission (CR) were 0 cases,partial remission (PR) were 24 cases,stable disease (SD) were 17 cases and progression (PD) were 9 cases,and the response rates (RR) were 48％;The quality of life of patients was significantly improved (P ＜ 0.05).Common adverse reactions were rash,diarrhea,chill and fever,but mild symptoms could be relieved after symptomatic treatment.Conclusions Gefitinib with autologous DC-CIK cell infusion second-line treatment of advanced lung cancer have a certain short-term efficacy,without significant adverse reactions.Gefitinib with autologous DC-CIK cell therapy can mitigate the response of bone marrow suppression in patients with advanced lung cancer and improve the quality of life of patients.Long-term effect remains to be investigated.

Objective To systematically compare propofol and isoflurane for myocardial protection in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).Methods Electronic databases were searched for randomized controlled clinical trials comparing propofol and isoflurane for myocardial protection in patients undergoing CABG.Data which were extracted independently by two reviewers included the general data of patients,premedication,induction of anesthesia and anesthetics applied during maintenance of anesthesia,level of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) before operation and at 6,12,24 and 48 h after operation,requirement for positive inotropic agents during operation,and development of myocardial infarction within 24 h after operation.Meta-analysis was conducted using Review Manager 5.0.2.Results Sixteen randomized controlled clinical trials involving 794 patients were included in this meta-analysis.The patients were divided into 2 groups:propofol group (n =405) and isoflurane group (n =389).There were no significant differences between the two groups in the plasma concentration of cTnI after operation,incidence of myocardial infarction within 24 h after operation,and requirement for positive inotropic agents during operation (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion There is no significant difference between propofol and isoflurane for myocardial protection in the patients undergoing CABG.

Objective To understand the endemic characteristics and regularity of cystic echinococcosis by evaluating and classifying its endemic situation in Non Tibetan Plateau regions,so as to provide the evidence for formulating effective preventive and control measures. Methods The prevalence data of cystic echinococcosis in 174 counties(cities,districts,banners)in Non Tibetan Plateau regions from a national survey were collected and analyzed by the sample cluster method in 2012. Results The 174 counties(cities,districts,banners)could be classified into 4 clusters by spatial distribution. The first cluster with human high prevalence rate,low infection rate of livestock,and positive rate of dog stool antigen included 3 counties. The second cluster with high infection rate of livestock,low prevalence rate of human,and positive rate of dog stool antigen included 20 counties(cit-ies). The third cluster with high positive rate of dog stool antigen,low prevalence rate of human,and low infection rate of livestock included 39 counties(cities,districts,banners). The fourth cluster with low rates of the above 3 indices included the rest 112 counties. Conclusions The results of the cluster analysis conform to the current epidemiological status of cystic echinococcosis in the Non Tibetan Plateau regions. The epidemiological characteristics and geographical distributions of the four area types will pro-vide a basis for the classified management and guidance of cystic echinococcosis control in these areas.
