Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is a marker protein of cancer-associated fibroblasts(CAFs). It is highly expressed in more than 90% of epithelial cancers and hardly expressed in normal tissues. Therefore, FAP is a very promising target. Radionuclide labeled FAP targeted molecular probes can be used for PET or SPECT imaging. In particular, 68Ga-FAP inhibitors (FAPIs) PET/CT has shown good prospects in the clinic, providing a new idea for early diagnosis, accurate staging and radionuclide treatment of tumors. In addition, FAP is also highly expressed in certain non-tumor diseases, especially those related to fibrosis. In this article, the research progress of radionuclide-labeled FAP targeted molecular probes is reviewed.

Objectives To study the relationship between hope and quality of life(QOL)in nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) patients undergoing radiotherapy(RT). Methods One hundred and ten NPC patients undergoing radiotherapy participated in the investigation by the Herth Hope Index(HHI)and the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-head and neck scale(FACT-H&N),to look into the correlations between their hope and QOL.Result The scores on hope and NPC for the QOL patients during radiotherapy were(34.80±2.64)and(91.34±13.19),respectively and they were positively correlated(r=0.253,P<0.01). Conclusions The hope of the NPC patients is at the medium level.Their hope is positively correlated with QOL.The higher level the hope is,the higher the QOL.

Objective To describe depression in liver transplant(LT)recipients and explore their coping styles.Methods One hundred transplant recipients were divided into three groups according to the time after LT:one to six months after the operation(group1),six months to one year(group2)and one to three years after the operation(group3).A self-rating depression scale(SDS)was used to measure their depression levels,and a Medical Coping Modes questionnaire(MCMQ)Was used to investigate their coping styles.The results were compared with those from a general population,and the relevance of depression symptoms and coping styles was analysed. Results The average SDS score of all the LT recipients was 41.03±7.14(42.90±7.18 for group 1.40.71±7.97 for group 2 and 39.69±6.00 for group 3).The average depression scores of the three groups were all significantly higher than in the normal population,but there was no statistically significant difference among the three groups.The depression scores were negatively correlated with the confrontation aspect of coping style,while positively correlated with avoidance and resignation.Conclusion LT recipients tend to be depressed,and the level of depression is strongly related with their coping styles.

Background Constipation is a common complication after stroke, and the results investigated overseas showed the incidence was about 30% ～60%. The difference of results is so significant because the time investigated and the diagnosis criterion used are different. There are less relative report about risk factors of constipation and no report about the impact of constipation on pragnosis. The study is to investigate the incidence and risk factors of new-onset constipation after stroke in the patients with acute stroke and to evaluate the impact of new-onset constipation occurrence on the prognosis in the patients.Methods A prospective cohort study of new-onset constipation was performed to investigate 154 cases of acute stroke patients who were hospitalized from December 2003 to October 2004 in the department of neurology, the first Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. We recorded the demographics, medical history,stroke severity and medication used. National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), Barthel Index (BI)and Modified Rankin Scale (MRS) were evaluated in the 1st week and 4th week after stroke to evaluate the neurological function and ability of an independent life. BI and MRS were recorded at the 12th week after stroke.Patients were then followed for the development of stroke, the event such as recurrence or death. Constipation was defined by Rome Ⅱ criteria.Results The incidence of new-onset constipation after stroke within 4 weeks was 55. 31%, and the highest risk was within seven days after onset of stroke. Cox regression showed that the incidence of constipation occurrence was strongly related to neurological functional status of patients in the 1st week assessed by BI and the transform of surrounding for defecation. In the 4th week and 12th week after stroke, the rates of poor prognosis in patients with constipation in middling state were both higher than patients without constipation, and the difference was statistically significant respectively(P ＜ 0. 01 ;P = 0. 012).Conclusions The new-onset constipation occurrence in acute stroke is very common and its main risk factor is functional status assessed by Barthel Index at the 1st week after onset and the transform of surrounding for defecation. The results indicate that the new-onset constipation occurrence after stroke has negative effects on the outcome of partial stroke patients.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the efficacy of Qijiao shengbai capsule in the adjuvant treatment of leukope-nia,and provide evidence-based reference for the clinical treatment. METHODS:Retrieved from CJFD,VIP,Wanfang Database and Medline and EMBase,randomized controlled trials(RCT) about the efficacy of Qijiao shengbai capsule (test group) versus blank control(control group) in the adjuvant treatment of leucopenia were collected. Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5.2 software after the quality assessment and data extraction. RESULTS:A total of 15 RCTs were included,involving 1 383 patients. Results of Meta-analysis showed the total effective rate [OR=0.31,95%CI(0.23,0.43),P<0.001],obvious effective rate [OR=0.31,95%CI(0.24,0.41),P<0.001],leukocyte count [MD=-1.04,95%CI(-1.10,-0.98),P<0.001] and myelosuppres-sion reduction [OR=0.27,95%CI(0.14,0.52),P<0.001] in test group were significantly higher than control group,there were sig-nificant differences. Only 9 patients had adverse reactions of mild diarrhea,nausea and other symptoms,and it relieved after symp-tomatic treatment. CONCLUSIONS:Qijiao shengbai capsule has achieve good efficacy in the adjuvant treatment of leukopenia. Due to the limits of quality and sample size,more strict designed,long-term follow-up of large scale RCTs are needed for the fur-ther verification of the conclusion.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the formulation optimization of Nicorandil sustained-release matrix tablet,and evaluate its drug release properties in vitro. METHODS:Based on single factor test,powder direct compression method was used,using nicorandil cumulative release rate (Q) in 1,4,8,12 h as evaluation indexes,central composite design-response surface method was adopted to optimize the amount of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose(HPMC)and ethyl cellulose(EC);Q values within 12 h in different pH (1.0,5.0,6.8,7.4) media were compared. RESULTS:The optimized formulation (every tablet) was nicorandil 10 mg,HPMC 150 mg,EC 90 mg,microcrystalline cellulose 80 mg,lactose 60 mg,magnesium stearate 2%. Q1 h,Q4 h,Q8 h and Q12 h of the obtained formulation were 23.6%,51.3%,83.7% and 96.9%,respectively;deviation from the predicted values were 2.1%,1.6%,1.0%,0.2%. Q values were similar in pH 1.0-7.4 at different time points. CONCLUSIONS:The obtained Nicor-andil sustained-release matrix tablet by optimal formulation shows sustained-release effect,and the change of pH 1.0-7.4 has no in-terference in the release characteristics of main drug.

Objective To evaluate the effect of therapeutic communication on negative emotion and quality of life of stoke patients. Methods A total of 120 stroke patients were divided into the control group and the observation group equally. The former received routine nursing and the latter routine nursing plus therapeutic communication. After 4 weeks, they were evaluated by self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), self-rating depressive scale (SDS), trait coping style questionnaire (TCSQ) and the short-form health survey-36 (SF-36). Results After the intervention, the scores on anxiety, depression and negative coping in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.01), while the scores on positive coping and quality of life were higher in the observation group than those in control group (P<0.01). Conclusion Therapeutic communication can effectively improve stroke patients′negative emotion and quality of life.
