Chemoradiotherapy is an important part in the adjuvant regimen for locally advanced gastric cancer after radical resection. Adjuvant chemoradiotherapy has demonstrated a clear local control and survival advantage for locally advanced patients with less than D2 lymph node dissection. Thus, chemoradiotherapy is recommended as standard of care in the postoperative setting. However, the role of radiotherapy for patients with more extensive D2 lymph node dissections remains controversial. Three phase III random-ized clinical trials in Asia show that adjuvant chemoradiotherapy after D2 dissection is safe and feasible and may benefit certain groups of patients. The benefit of radiotherapy in the case of more extensive surgery still warrants well-designed, fully powered randomized controlled clinical trials for verification. More studies are needed to focus on the identification of patient subgroups that are at high risk for locoregional failure and may benefit from adjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Further optimization of target volume in the radiother-apy and exploration of new modalities of radiation techniques are also necessary.

Five fractions,Ⅰ(R_f0.06)、Ⅱ(R_f0.21)、Ⅲ(R_f0.45)、Ⅳ(R_f0.60)、Ⅴ(R_f0.75)have been obtained after HT-toxin from race 1 of Exserohilum turcicum 99-2 isolated by TLC. In all of these fractions,only fractions Ⅱ had specific toxicity to the corn leaves with Ht1 gene. Then fractions Ⅱ-1、Ⅱ-2、Ⅱ-3 were isolated from fractions Ⅱ by HPLC purification,and the bioassay result showed only fraction Ⅱ-3 was toxigentic to corn leaves with Ht1 gene but non-toxigentic to corn leaves without Ht1 gene. Fractions Ⅱ-1、Ⅱ-2 and Ⅱ-3 were scanned by UV-Vis spectrophotometer. It was shown that the fractions Ⅱ-1 and Ⅱ-2 had analogous spectrum,and especially the fraction Ⅱ-3 had a special peak at 300nm.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of intravitreous injection with triamcinolone acetonide (TA) for cystoid macular edema (CME) due to central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). Methods Fourteen eyes of 14 patients with CME due to CRVO underwent intravitreous injection with 0.1 ml TA (40 mg/ml). Best-corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure (IOP), slitlamp examination, fundus fluorescein angiography, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) were performed on the patients before and after the injection. The follow-up period was 10-22.4 months, with the mean of 15.9 months. Results The average visual acuity was 0.1 before the treatment; while 1 month and 3 months after the injection, the visual acuity of all of the patients improved, including ≥0.2 in 71.43% and 63.6% of the patients, respectively, and ≥0.5 in 42.9% and 27.3%, respectively. After then, the visual acuity of some patients decreased, and in the final visit, 4 eyes (28.6%) had a visual acuity of ≥0.2, and 1 eye (7.1%) of ≥0.5. Compared with that before the treatment, the visual acuity of 10 (71.4%) eyes improved and 4 (28.6%) eyes declined. One month after the treatment, the macular edema disappeared in 10 eyes (71.4%) and alleviated in 4 (28.6%). In the final visit, macular edema disappeared in 4 eyes, alleviated in 9, and aggravated in 1. In the follow-up duration, high IOP [22.3-40.1 mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa)]. In the final visit, posterior subcapsular cataract was found in 7 eyes. Conclusion Intravitreous injection with TA may be effective in reducing CME and enhancing the visual acuity in a short term with high IOP in some eyes. In the long-term follow-up period, the rate of recurrence of CME and incidence of posterior subcapsular cataract is high.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of surgical treatment for diabetic retinopathy (DR) with diffuse diabetic macular edema (DDME) and massive subretinal hard exudates (MSHE) with vitrectomy, endolaser photocoagulation to the retina under perfluorocarbon liquid and long acting gas tamponade. Methods Fifteen eyes of twelve patients with DR complicated with DDME and MSHE admitted from October 2001 to December 2003 were enrolled for study, in whom 9 eyes were in 7 males and 6 eyes in 5 females. The patients were aged from 36~65 years (mean 53.4). The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), color fundus photography and fundus fluorescein angiography were recorded, and optic coherence tomography was performed preoperatively. Pars plana vitrectomy, posterior hyaloid removal, endolaser retinal photocoagulation under perfluorocarbon liquid and long acting gas tamponade were the therapeutic modalities used to treat the diseased eyes. Results Preoperative BCVA was finger counting to 0.05 in all 15 eyes. Improved vision was observed in eyes during 4~25 months of follow up period (mean 10.26 months), 0.03~0.04 in 2 eyes(13.3%), BCVA ≥0.09 in 13 eyes(86.7%), and 1 eye(6.7%)showed an improved vision from 0.04 to 1.0. Significant decrease in macular edema and retinal thickness were observed, and marlsed to complete absorption of intra-retinal and pre-retinal hemorrhage as well as MSHE was also seen. Conclusions Vitrectomy, posterior hyaloid removal, endolaser retinal photocoagulation under perfluorocarbon liquid and long acting gas tamponade may offer satisfactory effects in the treatment for DDME complicated with MSHE.

Objective To compare the effects of sevoflurane and propofol anesthesia on inflammatory response and pulmonary function during perioperative period in patients undergoing lung cancer resection.MethodsThirty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients(23 male,7 female) aged 41-64 yr having a body weisht index of 22-30 kg/m2 undegoing elective left lower lobe resection were randomlydivided into 2 groups(n=15 each):sevoflurane group (group S) and propofol group(group P).Anesthesia was induced with 6%-8% sevoflurane or propofol 2 mg/kg and fentanyl 4-6 μg/kg.Intubation with double lumen catheter was facilitated with vecuroniunl 0.1 mg/kg. Anesthesia was maintained with 1%-3% sevoflurane/propofol infusion(6-10 mg·kg-1·h-1)and intermittent iv boluses of fentanyl and vecuronium.Radial artery was cannulated.Swan-Ganz catheter was placed via right internal jugular vein.The patients were mechanically ventilated.During one lung ventilation(OLV)I:E and VT were adjusted to maintain airway pressure <30 cm H2O.Arlerial and mixed venous blood samples were collected for blood gas analysis before induction of anesthesia(T0),before OLV(T1),at the end of OLV(T2),when the chest was closed(T3) and at 24 h after operation (T4).PA-aO2,Qs/Qt and respiratory index(RI,PA-aO2/PaO2) were calculated. Serum matrix metallo-proteinase-9 (MMP-9) and MDA were measured at T0, T3 and T4. Dynamic lung compliance (Cd) was calculated at T1-3 .Results PA-aO2, RI and Qs/Qt at T1-3 and serum MMP-9 and MDA concentrations at T3 were significantly increased as compared with the baseline values at T0 in both groups. In group S, Cd was significantly lower at T3 than at T1.PA-AO2, and serum MMP-9 and MDA concentrations at T3, RI at T2,3 and Qs/Qt at T1-3 were significantly higher in group S than in group P. Conclusion The inflammatory response is lower and the injury to pulmonary function is lighter during propofol anesthesia than sevoflurane anesthesia in patients undergoing lung cancer resection.
