Objective To provide information collection,processing and inquiry system,which is safe,accurate rapid and in real time,for combat readiness medical supplies.Methods RFID technology and series antenna coils separated in space were used in combat readiness medicine-chest,thus enabling the medicine-chest to have the virtue of intelligence.Results The combat readiness medicine-chest equipped with RFID system can automatically classify to count and manage medical supplies in medicine-chest without opening the chest.The medical supplies can be monitored in real time and the information of outdated medicine can be automatically prompted.Conclusion Intelligent medicine-chest based on RFID technology can provide informatized method and technique for the management of combat readiness medical supplies for PLA.

Objective To identify the location of medicines in combat readiness medicine cabinet.Methods RFID system was used in combination with series antennas separated in space in combat readiness medicine cabinet.Results The combat readiness medicine cabinet equipped with RFID system could identify the location of medicines in medicine cabinet.It realized the location management and automatic classification statistics for medicines without opening cabinet.It greatly shortened the time in taking medicine in field emergency care.Conclusion Intelligent medicine cabinet based on RFID technology can upgrade the modernization level of sanitation logistics and provide a modern management method for iatrical material of combat readiness of PLA.

Objective In order to increase the operation coverage of high-frequency (HF) RFID reader without increasing the power output, a novel RFID antenna for multi-drawer intelligent medicine-chest are proposed. Using this antenna, the RFID tags on medicine can be read effectively. Methods Several small antenna coils can be combined in series or parallel connection to make a more efficient RFID reader antenna. The use of small coil will be helpful to eliminate the blind spot of RFID reader with large coil antenna. Results The medicine-chest's size is 58 cm?50 cm?62 cm3, which includes two or three layers. We design four combined small antenna coils to cover the drawer. The test result shows that the antenna read region is about 54 cm?48 cm?30 cm, all RFID tags in the medicine-chest drawer bottom and most RFID tags in the drawer top can be read. Conclusion The multi-drawer coil antenna designed can effectively recognize the RFID tags in medicine-chest. It has a wide application prospect.

The prevalence and mortality rate of lung cancer are high. Comprehensive treatment with surgical involvement is the mainstream approach for treating early-stage lung cancer. Video-assisted thoracic surgery has been adopted as the standard minimally invasive surgical option in recent years. However, difficulties in distinguishing cancer tissue, localizing draining lymph node and identifying intersegmental planes make complete removal of cancer tissue challenging. In recent years, near-infrared fluorescence imaging has been integrated with video-assisted thoracic surgery and enjoys broad application prospects. Now it plays an important role in the localization of pulmonary nodules, marking of sentinel lymph nodes and discrimination of intersegmental planes during surgeries.

With high morbidity and mortality, lung cancer is a major threat to human health and one of the focuses of tumor researches. Lung cancer stem cells (LCSCs) are regarded as a subpopulation of cells within lung cancer tissues with the capacity of self-renewal and differentiation, and might be related to tumorigenesis and heterogeneity of lung cancer. Tumor recurrence, metastasis and drug resistance of lung cancers could be clarified by LCSC hypothesis. Thus it's therapeutically prospective to target at these cells. This review summarizes the biomarkers of LCSCs and their aberrant signal pathways, as well as the therapeutic strategies targeting at LCSCs.
