cases were histologically confirmed to be patients with squamous cell carcinoma, 4 cases to be patients with adenocarcinoma. The majority of the patients received stereotatic radiotherapy on the basis of external radiation. The single dose for stereotatic radiation was 5~10Gy, once every two days, 4~8 fractions, the total dose was 26~42 Gy by using 5~6 non-coplanar stationary beams or arc radiation. The patients′ CT was checked 2~3 months after treatment, there were 8 cases of CR( 26.7%), 18 cases of PR(60%),4 case of NR (13.3%).The median survival time was 12 months and the survival of 1 year and 2 years was 84 % and 61.2% (using Kaplan-Meier methods). The total effective rate was 86.7%. The results suggested that stereotatic radiotherapy (SRT) is effective for lung cancer at palliative and radical treatment. Combined with external irradiation, it can increase the doses of target and shorten the course of treatment.

Objective To observe the substance P(SP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP) expressions in the temporomandibular joints(TM J) of the rats undergone emotional stress and explore the relationship between emotional stress and temporomandibular joint disorder(TMD). Methods Ninety SD rats were averagely randomly divided into emotional stress ( ES ) group( n = 30 ), electric foot-shocked (FS) group ( n = 30 ) and control (CON) group( n = 30). The emotional stress was induced by communication box. The TMJ tissues in ES and CON groups were removed after 1, 3 and 5 weeks of emotional stress for scanning electron microscope ( SEM ) test and immunohistochemistry test. The SP and CGRP expressions were examined with SABC immunohistochemistry and then analyzed by image analysis system. Results The expressions of SP and CGRP had significant difference after 1 ,3 and 5 weeks emotional stress ( SP: 124.5 ± 16.9,185.6 ± 1.8 and 193.5 ± 3.5, respectively; CGRP: 185.9 ±5.3, 112.5 ±5.2 and 174.3 ±5.3 ,respectively) (P<0. 05 ). The SEM results showed that there was a series of structural change on the condylar surface after emotional stress. Conclusion The SP and CGRP energy nerve fibers take part in the TMJ pathological process undergone emotional stress.

Background:Secondary lymphoid tissue chemokine( SLC)is involved in lymphoid homing and anti-tumor immune response,and has a chemotactic effect on intestinal lymphocytes. Several animal studies have shown that SLC is involved in the occurrence and development of ulcerative colitis( UC). Aims:To investigate the expression and significance of SLC in UC. Methods:Forty active UC patients from Dec. 2010 to Dec. 2012 at Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University were enrolled,and 20 healthy volunteers were served as controls. Expression of SLC in the colon mucosa was detected by immunohistochemistry,and its relationship with severity of UC was analyzed. Results:SLC was positively expressed in all UC patients,while was negatively or weakly positively expressed in controls. Expression of SLC in UC patients was significantly higher than that in controls(4. 16 ± 0. 78 vs. 0. 52 ± 0. 11,P<0. 05). Expression of SLC was correlated with the severity of involvement of UC. Conclusions:Expression of SLC participates in development and progress of UC. SLC may play an important role in the induction of local damage and pathological changes of UC.
