ObjectiveTo study the relation of phonation and respiration in normal subjects. MethodsUsing Aerophone Ⅱ Model 6800 and Visipitch 6097, vital capacity was recorded first , then the simultaneous phonation volume, maximum sustain phonation time,mean airflow rate,sound pressure level and average pitch were recorded in order to induce the relation of phonation and respiration in normal subjects. ResultsThere was a linear correlation between phonation volume and vital capacity. Maximum sustain phonation time varied with changes of mean airflow rate and phonation volume and mean airflow rate varied little in different subjects and had no relation with average pitch and sound intensity. ConclusionMaximum phonation time, the mean airflow rate and ratio of phonation volume to vital capacity can be used as indicator in clinical application.
2.Progress in molecular targeting therapy for gastrointestinal stromal tumors
Chinese Journal of Cancer Biotherapy 2019;26(3):253-259
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common malignant tumor of abdominal soft tissue. It originates from Cahal (Cajal) interstitial cells or common precursor cells, and is driven by the mutated KIT gene or platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRa) gene, all expressing type Ⅲ tyrosine kinase receptors. Imatinib mesylate, a tyrosine kinase receptor inhibitor, has been used for the standard treatment of advanced GIST, which has achieved remarkable results. Thus, GIST has become the most successful example of target therapy for solid tumors. In the context of the era of precision medicine, with the deepening in research of GISTs molecular biology,the molecular targeted treatment of GISTs has obtained a clear venation from the first-line, second-line and third-line of the advanced stage to the postoperative auxiliary and preoperative treatment, providing significant survival benefits for GISTs patients. This article systematically and comprehensively combed the preoperative and postoperative molecular targeting therapy from advanced GIST to early GIST, and analyzed the problems, proposed solutions and prospects for the future, aiming to provide reference for clinical application of molecular targeting drug therapy for GIST.

Myocardial fibrosis is the pathological basis of hypertensive heart disease, which is the key to control cardiovascular complications. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has the advantage of targeting many components of a system and providing more integrated regulation than modern medicine. While, modern medicine tends to target a single pathological link. This study was aimed to investigate effects and mechanisms in the treatment of myocardial fibrosis in hypertension with TCM from a different perspective, which provided references for clinical treatment.

BACKGROUND: Caveolin-1, as the most important functional protein in caveolae, is involoved in a variety of cell biological processes, and is closely related to the occurrence and development of breast cancer. OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of caveolin-1 on epidermal growth factor (EGF) in fibroblasts after co-cultured with breast cancer cells.METHODS: Caveolin-1 expression in fibroblast lines ESF-1 was interfered with siRNA, and the optimal effect was determined through QRT-PCR and western blot assay. (1) The optimal silencing model of ESF-1-Caveolin-1 SiRNA-N.2 was obtained, which was co-cultured with breast cancer cells BT474 as experimental group, single-cultured ESF-1 and ESF-1-Caveolin-1 SiRNA-N.2 as controls. The expression level of EGF in ESF-1 was detected by QRT-PCR at 24 and 48 hours of culture; the expression level of EGF in the culture medium was detected by ELISA at 48 and 72 hours of culture. (2) ESF-1-Caveolin-1 SiRNA-N.2 (experimental group) and ESF-1 (control group) were respectively co-cultured with BT474, and single-cultured BT474 as blank control group. The proliferation of BT474 was detected by cell counting-kit 8 assay after 24- and 48-hour culture.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The mRNA expression level of EGF in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the other two groups (P < 0.05), and the EGF expression level in the ESF-1-Caveolin-1 SiRNA-N.2 group was significantly higher than that in the ESF-1 group (P < 0.05). The protein expression level of EGF was ranked as follows: experimental group > ESF-1-Caveolin-1 SiRNA-N.2 group > ESF-1 group (P < 0.05). The proliferation of BT474 cells was significantly increased after co-cultured with BT474 cells and ESF-1 siRNA Caveolin-1 cells, especially with BT474 cells (P < 0.05). Our findings suggest that Caveolin-1 siRNA can promote the expression of EGF in fibroblasts, especially co-cultured with breast cancer cells. Furthermore, caveolin-1 siRNA accelerates the proliferation of breast cancer cells after co-cultured with fibroblasts.

Objective To evaluate the reliability of benign nodules diagnosed by ultrasound and analyze the probable factors of infecting the BI-RADS ultrasound categorization of breast lesions. Methods A total of 792 cases with initial category 3 assessments on BI-RADS ultrasound categorization consistent with more than 2 years follow-up or pathologic results were contained. The reliability of probable benign lesions were studied retrospectively,and several factors that could influence the categorization were explored such as age,breast lumps size,multiplicity,palpability,and US radiologist's experience referring to ACR-BI-RADS and the new categorizations recommendation. Results Of 792 breast nodules, 781 (98.6%) were benign and 11 (1.4%) were malignant. If the new categorizations recommendation was applied, 35. 1% (278/792) of all cased would have been upgraded to BI-RADS 4,81. 8% (9/11)of malignant tumors would have been found. The breast masses diagnosed by the junior radiologists were more frequently upgraded to BI-RADS 4 than senior radiologists' findings (P <0. 05), the nodules in women 40 years or older and multiple lesions were more frequently upgraded to category 4 (P <0. 01). The presence of palpability and mass size had on significantly influence the BI-RADS US categorization of breast nodules. Conclusions BI-RADS-Ultrasound categorization is relatively reliable to diagnose breast benign nodules. The multiplicity of breast nodules,patient's age and US radiologist's experience were found to have significant influences on the categorizations of probably benign breast nodules.

Objective To investigate the characteristic of 13C-methacetin breath test (13C-MBT) as a tool to monitor the hepatic function of patients with hepatic carcinoma by comparing with Child-Pugh classification and general liver function. Methods Thirty-nine patients with primary liver cancer, 16 patients with hepatic metastasis and 14 healthy volunteers serving as controls were included in this study. According to Child-Pugh classification, the primary liver cancer patients were divided into A, B and C subgroups. All subjects received 13C-MBT and routine liver function tests after an overnight fast. The three major parameters of 13C-MBT i.e. maximum excretion rate before 40 min (Mwnax40), 13CO2 cumulative excretion of 40 min(CUM40) and that of 120 min(CUM120) were recorded and the two metabolism curves (DOB curve, MV curve) were made. Results (1) In the control, hepatic metastasis and primary liver cancer groups, both the DOB curve and MV curve were similar in shape; the peak time occurred at about 20 min after administration and then the curves lowered progressively. There were significant differences between the primary liver cancer group and the other two groups, but it was not statistically different between the hepatic metastasis group and the controls. The shape was obviously distinct in the groups A, B and C of primary liver cancer. The group A had a single sharp peak curve, group B a relatively flat peak curve with a lower level for a long time after the ascending phase and group C no clear excretion peak or even a negative curve. (2) As to the three parameters of 13C-MBT, there were statistical difference between the primary liver cancer group and the other two groups(P <0. 05). Between hepatic metastasis group and controls,there was statistical difference about CUM120 (P <0. 05), but no statistical difference about Mvmax40 and CUM40. While in the three groups with primary liver cancer groups, there was statistical difference between group A and B in Mvmax40 and CUM40 ( P < 0. 05 ), but no statistical difference between group B and C. As to CUM120, there was statistical difference only between group A and C. (3) Comparing the three parameters of 13C-MBT with routine liver function tests, there was negative correlation with TBA, positive correlation with Alb, PA, ChE and no correlation with ALT, AST, TBil, γ-GT, ALP and PT. (4) There was a good consistency between 13C-MBT and Child-Pugh classification in the evaluation of liver function of patients with liver cancer ( Kappa = 0. 647, P < 0. 05 ). Conclusion The value of the three parameters of 13C-MBT is decreased with severity of the liver disease and 13C-MBT may be used to evaluate the reserved hepatic function in patients with primary liver cancer with a diagnostic value equivalent to Child-Pugh classification. The study further confirms that 13C-MBT has correlation with TBA,AIb, PA and ChE.
