Objective To evaluate the sensitivity, specificity and clinical significance of CK19 mRNA, CEA mRNA and LUNX mRNA for detecting micrometastasis by sampling the peripheral blood and regional lymph nodes of lung cancer patients. Methods Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect LUNX mRNA,CK19 mRNA, CEA mRNA for micrometastasis by sampling the peripheral blood of 48 lung cancer patients and 44 regional lymph nodes of such patients treated by curative resection. Peripheral blood of 30 patients with pulmonary benign lesions and 10 normal healthy volunteers and lymph nodes of 6 patients with benign pulmonary diseases served as control. Results (1) LUNX mRNA, CK19 mRNA, CEA mRNA were expressed in all(35/35) lung cancer tissues. (2) In the peripheral blood from 48 lung cancer patients, 30(62.5%) were positive for LUNX mRNA, 24 (50.0% ) positive for CK19 mRNA and 32(66.7%) positive for CEA mRNA. The positive detection rates of micrometastasis in 44 lymph nodes from lung cancer patients were 36.4% (16 out of 44) for LUNX mRNA, 27.3%(12 out of 44) for CK19 mRNA and 40.9%(18 out of 44) for CEA mRNA. (3) In the 30 blood samples from patients with pulmonary benign diseases, 2 (6.7%) expressed CK19 mRNA, but none expressed LUNX mRNA or CEA mRNA. All the 3 molecular markers were negative in the 10 blood samples from healthy volunteers. In 11 lymph nodes from patients with pulmonary benign lesions, none was positive for any of the three markers.(4)In 44 regional lymph nodes from lung cancer patients,6(13.6%) were positive for metastasis by histopathological examination, with a positive rate significantly lower than that of the RT-PCR ( P

Radiotherapy not only acts as an important local treatment of cancer, but also plays a key role in regulation of immune function. Radiotherapy regulates anti?tumor immune responses by promoting the generation of neoantigens, regulating the release of cytokine, and enhancing the sensitivity of tumor to cell?mediated immunity. Recently, several studies and clinical practice reported the abscopal effect in some patients undergoing radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy, which showed partial or complete response of metastases outside the irradiation field, suggesting the combination therapy as a promising strategy. However, further studies are needed for the understanding of the mechanism and influencing factors for immunity such as radiation dose and fractionation scheme. This paper reviews the research advances in the mechanism of radiotherapy?immunotherapy interaction and the combination therapy for cancer.

[Abstrct] Objective To compare the short -term tumor response and adverse events of two chemoradio-therapy regimens for locally advanced non -squamous non-small cell lung cancer .Methods From March 2009 to January 2013 ,we recruited 42 patients with stage ⅢNSCLC who had received three -dimensional intensity -modulated radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy .group A treated with radiotherapy combined pemetrexed plus cisplatin and group B treated with radiotherapy combined docetaxel plus cisplatin .We compared the short -term tumor response and adverse events between the two regimens .Results There were 28 cases in group A and 14 cases in group B .There were no significant differences between the two groups in hematologic toxicities ,such as leukopenia,neutropenia,anemia and thrombocytopenia.In non-hematologic toxicities,radiation pneumonitis and cough were no significances respectively (P<0.05).There were no significant differences in other non -he-matologic toxicities,such as liver dysfunction,renal dysfunction,fever,dyspnea,radiation esophagitis,hypody-namia,weight loss,gastrointestinal reactions and skin reactions .The response rate displayed no differences be-tween two groups .Conclusion This study reveals Pemetrexed plus cisplatin group had less non -hematologic toxicities than Docetaxel plus cisplatin group in locally advanced non -squamous non -small cell lung cancer . But there are no differences in the short -term tumor response between the two regimens .

Objective:To investigate the association between p53 codon 72 polymorphism and the prognosis of breast cancer pa-tients receiving chemotherapy and radiotherapy after surgery. Methods:A total of 427 breast cancer patients treated with chemo-radio-therapy after surgery at Beijing Cancer Hospital were selected for this study. Polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism was adopted to analyze the p53 codon 72 polymorphism. Survival analysis was conducted to compare the disparities of recurrence and survival among the patients with different p53 codon 72 polymorphic variants. Results:The distribution of three geno-types of p53 codon 72 in our cohort is as follows:Pro/Pro 18.3%(78/427), Pro/Arg 44.0%(188/427), and Arg/Arg 37.7%(161/427). No significant difference was observed among the local recurrence-free survival (LRFS), loco-regional recurrence-free survival (LR-RFS), distant disease-free survival (DDFS), and overall survival (OS) among the three genotypes (all P>0.05). Among the 303 estro-gen receptor (ER)-positive patients, OS was significantly better in patients with Arg/Arg genotype than those with Pro/Pro genotype (χ2=6.33, P=0.042). The multivariate analysis showed that the p53 codon 72 polymorphism is an independent factor of prognosis for LRFS, LRRFS, DDFS, and OS of ER-positive patients. For the ER positive patients with Pro/Pro genotype, the local recurrence, local-regional recurrence, distant metastasis, and mortality risks were 5.9 (HR=5.9, 95%CI 1.1-31.1, P=0.036), 3.1 (HR = 3.1, 95% CI 1.1-9.1, P=0.039), 2.8 (HR=2.8, 95% CI 1.3-6.0, P=0.010), and 4.0 (HR=4.0, 95% CI 1.3-12.0, P=0.013) times higher than those with Arg/Arg genotype, respectively. Conclusion:For ER-positive breast cancer patients who underwent surgery and chemo-radiotherapy, the local recurrence, loco-regional recurrence, distant metastasis, and mortality risk with Pro/Pro genotype are significantly higher compared to those with Arg/Arg genotype.

Objective To understand the influence of the disease-based hierarchical medical system on inpatients flow covered by the new rural cooperative medical system ( NRCMS) , and that on the funding diversion and medical costs so incurred. Methods One county was selected from the eastern, central and western regions of China respectively, where the disease-based hierarchical medical system has been in place. Policy documents of the three counties were reviewed to analyze such changes as NRCMS inpatients flow, inpatients subsidy diversion, NRCMS fund surplus rate of the current year and medical costs per hospitalization before and after the system was in place. Results A comparison with 2014 found a 1. 26%drop of the out-of-county inpatients of county W of the western region, a 2. 00% increase of township hospitals inpatients of county D in the middle region, and the same ratio of out-of-county and in-county inpatients in county F of the eastern region in 2015. Compared with 2014, the fund surplus rate of county W increased 10. 46%, and the inpatient subsidy ratio of county D decreased 2. 51% for those in out-of-county medical institutions in 2015. Thanks for the quota payment of specific diseases under global budget in county W, the inpatient medical costs per hospitalization dropped at both county and township medical institutions. Conclusions The disease-based hierarchical medical system could optimize the NRCMS inpatients distribution among various medical institutions, conducive for establishment and operation of such a system.

Objective To discuss the characteristics of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases(ESBLs)-producing Shigella and the relation between them and drug-resistance plasmid. Methods The suspicious ESBLs-producing isolates were screened by K-B disc diffusion method, and the ESBLs-producing strains were confirmed by confirmatory test recommended by the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards. Furthermore, the partial blageneof these isolates were detected by PCR using universal primers for TEM, SHV, CTX-M-1 group, CTX-M-2 group and CTX-M-9 group, respectively. The entire blaCTX-M-9 and blaTEM were amplified by PCR using the primers outside the open reading frame (ORF) of these β-1actamases and products were directly sequenced. The conjugation experiment was performed to determine whether the resistance was transferable. Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was detected with double agar dilution method. Results Of the 275 isolates, 12 strains were identified as ESBLs producers. Among them, 8 strains were CTX-M-14 carriers and 4 strains were CTX-M-3 carriers. All ESBLs-producing isolates are positive for plasmid conjugative transfer test. The transconjugants are only resistance to betalactams. Conclusions High resistance to beta-laetams in Shigella is caused by production of ESBLs in the local area. The ESBLs-produeing isolates can transfer the drug resistance through lateral transfer of plasmid.
