There are three kinds of molecular targeted antitumor drugs: inhibitors of membrane?associated therapeutic targets, inhibitors of intracellular signaling pathways, and immunomodulators. Inhibitors of membrane?associated therapeutic targets include epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors (EGFRIs), KIT and BCR?ABL inhibitors, antiangiogenic agents and multikinase inhibitors. Inhibitors of intracellular signals include inhibitors of the RAS?RAF?MEK?ERK pathway, PI3K?AKT?mTOR pathway and Hedgehog signaling pathway. Inhibitors of cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated?antigen(CTLA) and programmed death 1 (PD?1) belong to immunomodulatory agents. Cutaneous adverse effects of different molecular targeted antitumor drugs share some common features, but also differ from each other. Most of the side effects are dose?dependent and reversible. Management strategies should be adjusted according to the severity of skin eruptions. Dose tapering and even discontinuation of antitumor drugs are necessary for very severe cases, but for mild ones, symptomatic treatment might be enough. This article reviews cutaneous adverse reactions to molecular targeted therapy as well as their prevention and management.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of treating craniocerebral trauma-related coma with acupuncture plus hyperbaric oxygen. Methods: Coma patients were randomly allocated into observation and control groups. Routine surgery or non-surgical treatment was given according to the condition of injury. The observation group received acupuncture plus hyperbaric oxygen as well as the treatment for the control group. The score was counted by the Glasgow coma scale before and after the treatment. A chi-square test was used. Results:There was a very significant difference in curative effect between the observation and control groups (P<0.01). Conclusion: Treatment with acupuncture plus hyperbaric oxygen can promote the patients' early revival.

Objective To discuss the histology change,apoptosis state and Bcl-2,Bax expression after the bone cement leakage into the intervertebral disc in vertebroplasty.Methods Eight majority canis familiaris were studied.Three lumbar intervertebral discs(L2 to L5)in each dog were randomly classified into three groups(control group,PMMA group,and CPC group),the canine discs were stabbed by 18-gauge needle,and 0.1 ml cement was injected into them.Control discs were only stabbed and injected with nothing.Histology of all discs was studied 24 weeks after the operation.Terminal-deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated nick end labeling(TUNEL)and immunohistochemisty were used to detect apoptosis and Bcl-2,Bax expression in the discs.The data were statistically analyzed by SPSS 12.0.Results Intervertebral disc degeneration was not found in control groups.In bone cement groups,however,ruptured or serpentine patterned fibers,decreased cellularity of the nucleus pulposus and condensed matrix of the nucleus pulposus were found in histologic results.The Bax protein decreased in the order of control group, CPC group,and PMMA group.However,the Bcl-2 protein increased in the order of control group,CPC group,and PMMA group.The histology grade was significantly different among the three groups under ANOVA analysis(P

Objective To explore the relationship between dynamic changes in ultra-micro-structural of pulmonary arteries and endogenous hydrogen sulfide in rats with left-right shunt.Methods Rats in shunt group were subjected to an abdominal aorta-inferior vena cava shunt to create an animal model of pulmonary artery structural remodeling. After 1 day, 3 days, 1 week, 4 weeks and 8 weeks of experiment, the ultra-micro-morphologic changes of pulmonary arteries of rats were observed under electronic microscope and H_2S concentration in serum was evaluated by modified sulfide electrode method.Results The changes of ultra-micro-structure of pulmonary arteries were progressively exacerbated, endothelial cells became swollen and large in size on 3 days, smooth muscular cells increased in size as well as the change of endothelial cells in 1 week, and they changed from contractile phenotype to synthetic phenotype in 4 weeks.Conclusions Shunt exhibited changes of ultra-micro-structure of pulmonary arteries are accompanied by the changes of endogenous H_2S. It is suggested that endogenous H_2S might play a protective role in changes of ultra-micro-structure of pulmonary artery.

Objective To study the impact of implanted thermoseeds of magnetic induction hyperthermia on radiation dose distribution. Methods To simulate irradiation, an anthropomorphic phantom and three-dimensional treatment planning system were used. The impact of thermoseeds on radiation dose distribution was evaluated. Results The change of absorbed dose caused by the implantated thermoseeds was less than 1.5%. Conclusions The impact of implanted thermoseeds on radiation dose distribution is small and comes up to the requirements that the total target dose uncertainty must be less than 5%. Therefore, the impact of thermoseeds on the absorbed dose in tissue can be ignored in clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational use of TCM injections. METHODS:Among the inpatients who used TCM injections in 4 hospitals of Shanghai Jiading district in 2013,100 cases were collected by systematic sampling in each hospital separately, and the data were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS:The varieties and amount of TCM injections for blood-activating and stasis-resolving both occupied the first place. 22% inpatients used two or more TCM injections at the same time. The proportion of overdose use of TCM injections reached 54.55%. The type of unreasonable drug use mainly included drug use against differentiation of syndromes,super indications drugs and solvent error. Combined use of TCM injections with same ef-fect accounted for 20.45% of combined use of TCM injections. CONCLUSIONS:It is effective means to improve rational drug use that great impertance paid for clinical use of TCM injections.

Objective To study the effects of ?2-adrenergic receptor gene Arg16Gly polymorphism on blood lipid and apolipoprotein ratio and its role in blood lipid and apolipoprotein ratio mediated by high carbohydrate/low fat (HC/LF) diet in healthy young persons.Methods Fifty-six healthy young volunteers had regular diet for 7 d followed by HC/LF diet for 6 d.Twelve-hour fasting venous blood samples were collected on days 1,8 and 14 to measure blood lipid and apolipoprotein (apo) AI and B100 levels,and to calculate ratios of TG/HDL-C,log (TG/HDL-C),TC/HDL-C,LDL-C/HDL-C and apoAI/apoB100.DNA was isolated from genome.Arg16Gly polymorphism was analyzed by PCR-RFLP.Results No significant difference was found in the baseline lipid and apolipoprotein ratio in subjects with AA genotype and G carriers before and after regular or HC/LF diet.The ratios of TG/HDL-C (P=0.017),log (TG/HDL-C) (P=0.031),and apoAI/apoB100 (P=0.006) were significantly higher,while those of TC/HDL-C (P=0.001) and LDL-C/HDL-C (P

Objective To study the relationship between Noble grade and distribution of myocardial bridge and atherosclerosis. Methods The clinical data of 192 patients with myocardial bridge diagnosed by coronary artery angiography were retrospectively analysed.The clinical symptoms,electrocardiographic and echocardiographic findings were analysed to explore the relationship between Noble grade and distribution of myocardial bridge and atherosclerosis,and the outcomes of medical treatment were also investigated. Results The positive rate of myocardial bridge detected by coronary artery angiography was 10.2%,which was usually observed in the middle part of left anterior descending coronary artery.All the patients with grade 3 of Noble grade experienced chest pain or palpitation,43.8% had ischemic ST-T changes on electrocardiogram,and 37.5% had abnormal segmental ventricular wall on echocardiography.However,patients with Noble grade 1 and 2 did not have ischemic ST-T changes on electrocardiogram or abnormal segmental ventricular wall on echocardiography.The prevalence of atherosclerosis in proximal coronary artery of myocardial bridge was significantly higher than those of mural coronary artery and distal coronary artery(P
