Objective To study the preventive effect of hepatic metastasis from colorectal cancer and the immune function influence on postoperative patients with colorectal cancer treated by TIL, rIL-2 and cyclophosphamide by portal vein infusion. Methods One hundred and twenty-four patients with advanced colorectal cancer (Dukes B and Dukes C stage) were randomly divided into immunotherapy group and control group. The control group were treated with 5-Fu and MMC by intravenous injection after resection of colorectal cancer. The immunotherapy group were treated with TIL, rIL-2 and cyclophosphamide by portal vein infusion after resection of the tumor, then with chemotherapy as the control group. All cases were followed-up for 3 years. Results Eight cases (12.3%) had hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer in the immunotherapy group, but nineteen cases (33.2%) in the control group. There was significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). The NK, IL-2 activity and CD3, CD4, CD4/CD8 levels in peripheral blood of the immunotherapy group increased significantly after treatment (P<0.05). Conclusions The TIL, rIL-2 and cyclophosphamide treatment after resection of colorectal cancer is effective in improving antitumorgenic immune function, and preventing hepatic metastases.

Objective To explore the effects of adriamycin-loaded immuno-nanoparticles on multidrug resistance (MDR) of hepatoma cell line SMMC-7721/ADM. Methods The cytotoxicity of the adriamycin-loaded immuno-nanoparticles on the bepatoma cell line SMMC-7721/ADM in vitro and the tumor cell-binding ability of adriamycin-loaded immuno-nanoparticles were detected. Results The effect of the cytotoxicity of adriamycin-loaded immuno-nanoparticles on the hepatoma cell line SMMC-7721/ADM was significantly better than that of adriamycin-loaded nanoparticles. Adriamycin-loaded immuno-nanoparticles had the specific binding ability with the hepatoma cell line SMMC-7721/ADM. Conclusions Adriamycin-loaded immuno-nanoparticles can overcome the MDR of the tumor in vitro. The mechanism may be that immuno-nanoparticles could adhere to the tumor cell membrane, and the release of the loaded adriamycin creates a high local concentration in the extracellular medium. The increased concentration gradient improves the diffusion of adriamycin from the extracellular medium to the intracellular medium.

Objective To study the application effect of clinical pathway teaching in respiratory medicine. Methods Seventy clinical medical students of our department during 2007 to 2009 were randomly divided into two groups. The control group (35 students) was treated by traditional teaching ways, while the experimental group(35 students) was treated by clinical pathway teaching ways, with 5 to 6 students forming a small group. Teachers provided one copy of the CP version to each person in advance. Then progressive questions and discussions were conducted according to the diagnosis, dif-ferential diagnosis and treatment of CP. After its implementation for a certain time, students were co-mprehensively assessed by the practice examination and questionnaire and the statistical analysis was performed by using SPSS 17.0 version statistics software. Results The experimental group's total aver-age score was (90.00±4.00) points, while the control group's total average score was (76.00±7.20) points. There was significant difference between the two groups(P=0.001). The effect of these two kinds of teaching was evaluated and compared in stimulating interest in learning (P=0.002), improving the analytical ability(P=0.004),improving self-study ability(P=0.001), deepening the under-standing of the basic concepts(P=0.112), improving the innovation ability (P=0.005), improving the efficiency of learning(P=0.034), improving clinical comprehensive ability(P=0.016), and improving the ability of language expression(P=0.000), showing that teaching method of clinical pathway could significantly improve clinical teaching effect, and there was statistically significant difference between them. Conclusion Clinical pathway teaching has obvious advantages in cultivating students' diagnostic thinking and clin-ical ability to solve practical problems, and therefore it has better clinical teaching effect than the tra-ditional teaching method.
