Castration-resistant prostate cancer is a fatal disease with rapid progress. This malignancy usually presents with metastasis and poor prognosis. This type of disease also often causes 100%mortality, of which the median survival time is less than 20 months. Thus, treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer remains challenging, and the underlying mechanisms of this cancer have yet to be identified. Several new therapies for castration-resistant prostate cancer have been proposed, such as androgen receptor antago-nists, immunotherapeutic drugs, taxanes, antiangiogenic agents, radionuclides, and bone-targeting drugs. These therapies can im-prove the survival time of patients. The advances in the treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer are briefly reviewed in this ar-ticle.
2.Research progress in the operational techniques of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2014;(9):601-603
Compared with open surgery, laparoscopic surgery (LS) provides distinct advantages. However, LS is limited because of the lack of flexibility and tactile feedback. These drawbacks may result in prolonged learning curve and increase in difficulty of sur-gery, particularly for reconstructive LS. This study aimed to determine more efficient methods and resolve several limitations, such as surgical education, LS, surgical procedures (suturing and knotting), iconography, and biotechnology in LS. This review provides a broad overview of studies related to this field.

Objective To provide decision-making information for the spread of techniques that improve the quality of neonates. Methods A systematic study was made of the political, technical, economic and social viability of neonatal disease screening in China by means of economic and policy evaluation, sociological analysis, and statistical analysis. Results Neonatal disease screening was conducted in 29 provinces throughout the country. However, there was a great difference between the provinces in screening coverage. In order to strengthen control, 16 provinces issued methods or regulations concerning neonatal disease screening. Since the Ministry of Health did not issue relevant control methods that would standardize the responsibilities of the organizations undertaking the screening, problems affecting the safety and effectiveness of neonatal disease screening became increasingly prominent. Conclusion It is necessary and viable to conduct neonatal disease screening in China. But macro control of the work by the government needs to be reinforced. The Ministry of Health ought to issue as soon as possible methods for controlling neonatal disease screening and relevant technical criteria. At the same time publicity of the work needs to be strengthened in society so as to give it impetus throughout the country.

Patients with metastatic prostate cancer are typically managed with androgen deprivation therapy. Most patients initially respond to treatment, but many eventually develop castration-resistant prostate cancer. Neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) is a highly aggressive subtype of castration-resistant prostate cancer, which often results from neuroendocrine differentiation of prostate cancer cells. NEPC has a dismal outcome with an average survival of less than 1 year and exhibits less response to radiochemotherapy. At least 25%of patients with lethal castration-resistant prostate cancer are predicted to eventually develop this type of highly-aggres-sive NEPC. However, research on the molecular mechanism of NEPC is limited;thus, further studies are needed to explore the develop-ment and application of anticancer drugs for NEPC.
6.Identification and Antimicrobial Resistance Analysis of Mycoplasma from Cervical Secretion
Chinese Journal of Nosocomiology 2006;0(08):-
OBJECTIVE To study infection and drug resistance of Mycoplasma from female genital tract.METHODS Mycoplasma in cervical secretion from inflammed female genital tract were identified by cultivation,and the sensitivities to antibiotics were also performed.RESULTS Mycoplasma were detected in 318 specimens among 588 patients with genital tract inflammation(54.1%),among which Ureaplasma urealyticum(Uu) accounted for 312(98.1%),and Mycoplasma hominis was 6(1.9%).The resistance to 12 kinds of antibiotics indicated that the sensitivities to 8 kinds of antibiotics were higher than 80% and the sensitivities to erythromycin,spiramycin and tetracycline were the lowest.CONCLUSIONS The infectious rates of Uu are on big rise in female genital tract with inflammation and the resistant strains increase continuously.

The global and local,goal and destination,treatment and reinjury are three common critical thinking,which has the vital significance to the teaching of anesthesiology.Through the classroom interpretation of the pathogenesis,we preliminarily cultivate the students' global and local thinking by guiding students to find the primary problem in the global and local and finding out the breakthrough point of disease treatment.Through the case teaching,we promote students to constantly strengthen their goal and destination thinking by guiding students to select target,determine the endpoint,and solve the problem in stages to make the treatment of the critically ill patient which students simulate has good operability.Through adoption of problem based learning,we make students know how to achieve the optimal treatment effect by guiding them to have extensive discussions and have access to information so as to cultivate students' treatment and reinjury thinking and enhance their global and local thinking at the same time.
