Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2016;23(19):2915-2918
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of modified anti -tuberculosis scheme in the treatment of tuberculous meningitis.Methods 60 cases with tuberculous meningitis were randomly divided into two groups.We enrolled 30 patients in each group.The traditional anti -tuberculosis group used traditional anti -tuberculosis scheme with isoniazid,rifampicin,pyrazinamide,streptomycin,and the modified anti -tuberculosis group was given isoniazid,rifampicin,pyrazinamide,levofloxacin,the treatment course of tuberculous meningitis was 12 months.The efficacy and safety through clinical manifestations and laboratory examinations,the dynamic changes of cerebrospinal fluid were evaluated by statistical methods.Results The total effective rate of the modified anti -tuberculosis group was significantly higher than the traditional anti -tuberculosis group(86.6% vs.63.3%,χ2 =4.36,P <0.05).The cerebrospinal fluid routine and biochemical index in the modified anti -tuberculosis group were obviously superior to the traditional anti -tuberculosis group after treatment(all P <0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(26.6% vs.16.7%,χ2 =0.88,P >0.05).Conclusion Levofloxacin combined with other first -line anti -tuberculosis drugs,glucocorticoids,dehydration and other comprehensive measures improved brain function for the treatment of tuberculous meningitis is recommended.

Objective To compare the efficacy between the brucea javanica oil emulsion combined with the whole radiotherapy group (treatment group) and only radiotherapy group (control group) in non-small cell lung cancer patients with brain metastases.Methods The clinical data of 53 non-small cell lung cancer patients with brain metastasis were retrospectively reviewed,including 27 cases in treatment group and 26 cases in control group.Results The remission rates were 77.8 % (21/27) and 69.2 % (18/26) respectively in treatment group and control group.The improvement rates of Kamofsky in the treatment group and control group were 66.7 % (18/27) and 30.8 % (8/26),the stable rates were 22.2 % (6/27) and 30.8 % (8/26),the decrease rates were 11.1% (3/27) and 38.5 % (10/26).The remission rates of clinical sympotoms were 92.6 % (25/27) and 69.2 % (18/26) respectively in treatment group and control group.The difference of remission rate between two groups has no statistic significance (P > 0.05),while the difference of the quality of life and clinical sympotoms between two groups were significant respectively (P < 0.05).Conclusion The brucea javanica oil emulsion combined with the whole radiotherapy can relieve clinical sympotoms and improve the quality of life of patients,and may play a role on improving the effect of radiotherapy.

Cancer Research and Clinic 2014;26(2):91-93,97
Objective To evaluate the recent effects of IMRT plus gemcitabine for locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer.Methods The data of forty-five patients were retrospectively reviewed.The treatment group consisted of 23 cases,treated with sequential same chemotherapy regimens and IMRT,the control group consisted of 22 cases,receiving same chemotherapy regimens after two cycles of gemcitabine and cisplatin induction chemotherapy.Resuls The remission rates were 65.2 % (15/23) and 31.8 % (7/22) respectively in treatment and control group.The 1 year survival rates were 66.4 % and 45.0 % respectively in treatment and control group.The remission rates and 1 year survival rates were significant different between two groups (both P < 0.05).Conclusion The short-term effect of sequential chemotherapy and IMRT is better than chemotherapy and the adverse events can be better tolerated.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a novel class of small noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression by targeting mRNAs for either cleavage or translational repression.Accumulated studies show that miRNAs aberrantly expressed in tumors are closely related with tumorogenesis and could be potential tumor biomarkers.It will be helpful in the diagnosis,prognosis and(or) predicting treatment response of tumor by imaging miRNAs expression.Several molecular imaging methods,including the optical imaging,radionuclide imaging and multimodality imaging,have been successfully used to visualize miRNAs,miRNAs,a new molecular imaging target,may explore a new field for tumor diagnosis and therapy.

Objective To investigate the normal aortic valve histological manifestation and histopathological changes of degenerative aortic valve.Methods In Tianjin Chest Hospital,there were patients due to aortic valve disease undergoing aortic valve replacement surgery in the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery,and in 22 cases,their pathological aorta tricuspid valves were successfully excised from May 2009 to May 2010.The aortic valve tissues were collected,and according to hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining of the degenerative calcified aortic valves with stenosis,they were divided into pathological valvular calcification locus group and non calcification locus group.Six morphologically normal aortic valve tissues were taken as a control group.The situation of collagen fibers,elastic fibers and collagen content in normal and disorder valves were analyzed by using of IDA-2000 high definition color medical image analysis system.Results With the naked eye,the thickness of the valve leaves with stenosis was increased,and at the valve leaf close to the side of arota,calcified foci were produced.Under light microscope,inflammatory changes were found in the aortic valve endothelium,in the tubular wall,there were aggregations of newly formed capillary with relatively thin wall,cholesterol crystals,cells similar to foam cells and diffuse and nodular calcification commonly seen,Compared with the normal valve,the ratio between collagenous and elastic fibers no matter at calcified or non-calcified region was greater in pathological valve [(3.19-± 1.01)%,(2.62-± 0.34)% vs.(1.89-± 0.29)%,both P < 0.05],collagen content (ratio =collagen/valve area) was also higher [(65.17 ± 11.48)%,(39.25-± 11.15)% vs.(22.99 ± 4.78)%,P < 0.05] in pathological valve,and the changes in calcified region were more significant than those in non-calcified region (both P < 0.05).Conclusions Proliferation of collagen and degradation of elastic fibers are obvious in degenerative aortic valve,and the changes are more prominent at calcified region.

Objective The study was aiming at elucidating the rale of BSP over-expression in enhancing osseous metastasis of breast cancer cells,in order to search for new drug targets for prevention and treatment of such metastasis.Methods Chicken embryo allantois membrane(CAM)was used in the experiment.Breast cancer cells were inoculated on the superior surface of CAM sac,then the vascular tissues were collected in lower sac after incubation.The human specific Alu gene was amplified by PCR with genomic DNA extracted as template.Breast cancer cells were incubated with bone,which had becn treated with collagenase and trypsinase,and then OD_(488) of breast cancer was assessed to evaluate the adhesive affinity of breast cancer cells to bone.Results The findings of CAM assay and PCR amplifica- tion using human Alu primers and genomic DNA showed that Alu gene was amplified from 4 of 5 in MDA-MB-231BO(pI)group and 3 of 5 in MDA-MB-231BO(pID)group,but not amplified in control group.In bone adhesion assay,the OD_(488) of digested bone after MDA- MB-231BO(pI)and MDA-MB-231BO(pID)adhering to bone were 0.58?0.046 and 0.49?0.039,respectively,which were larger than that of MDA-MB-231BO(0.26?0.021,P

Complete surgical resection is very important for the outcome of cancer treatment and prognosis.Radionuclide imaging and optical imaging are effective methods for intra-operative guidance of tumor exploration and resection because of their capability in accurate tumor localization and margin delineation.With the development of more specific molecular probes and more sensitive detectors,advanced imaging methods that combine the advantages of both optical and radionuclide imaging,such as Cerenkov luminescence imaging,will be expected to play a more important role as intra-operative navigating agents for surgical oncology in the near future.
