Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Significant advancements have been observed in the thera-py for non-small celllung cancer (NSCLC). With constant extension of new awareness regarding the histopathology of lung cancer, ho-mologous chemotherapeutic regimens have been developed on the basis of histopathological sub-typing methods. With developments in molecular biology, driving gene mutations during tumorigenesis and progression have been discovered. A series of targeted drugs for various molecular subtypes has also been investigated and developed on the basis of these mutations. This review summarizes recently published clinical outcomes on the management of advanced NSCLC and strategies to apply drugs in clinical treatments.

Background Rabbits are commonly used as animal models for the evaluation of drugs and surgery to lower intraocular pressure (IOP).The accuracy of IOP measurement is therefore critical in the analysis of data and subsequent extrapolation to humans.An accurate method to measure rabbit IOP is intracameral manometry,but it is an invasive way.Schi(o)tz,Perkins and Rebound were often used in clinic.However,their accuracy in measuring rabbit IOP in experimental study is unclear.Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate the accuracy of IOP measured by Schi(o)tz tonometer,Perkins tonometer and Rebound tonometer relative to intracameral manometry in New Zealand white rabbits.Methods The central corneal thickness (CCT),corneal curvature (CC),axial length (AL),anterior chamber depth (ACD),lens thickness (LT) and scleral thickness (ST) were respectively measured in 8 eyes of 8 healthy New Zealand white rabbits with lenstar900 and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM).The actual IOP was measured with a 24G needle inserted the anterior chamber and connected to a pressure transducer under the general anesthesia,the IOP gradient was set with a 24G needle inserting the vitreous cavity and connecting to a container with balanced salt solution(BSS).Then,comparative measurements at the same pressures were performed with three types of tonometers.The IOP values from Schi(o)tz tonometer,Perkins tonometer and Rebound tonometer were calibrated based on actual IOP from intracameral manometry and eyeball physiological parameters by multiple regression equation.Results The mean of CCT,CC,AL,ACD,LT and ST was (338.96 ±21.52) μm,(51.68±1.66) D,(14.63±0.19) mm,(2.22±0.04) mm,(6.15±0.10) mm and (339.80±47.41) μm.Compared with the intracameral manometry value (IMV),the error range was (17.08± 11.22) mmHg in the Schi(o)tz tonometer value (STV),(25.81±12.43) mmHg in the Perkins tonometer value (PTV) and (22.50±11.47) mmHg in the Rebound tonometer value (RTV),with significant differences between them (t =10.54,14.39,13.59,all at P＜ 0.05).Compared with IMV,the 95％ limits of agreement of three portable tonometer values is larger,and three portable tonometer values had the greater measurement error with elevated IOP gradient.The regression equations was IOP =141.015 + 1.570 × STV + 0.122 × CCT-3.480 × CC between actual IOP and STV (R =0.92,P =0.00),IOP =-33.323+1.914×PTV+0.133×CCT between actual IOP and PTV(R =0.88,P=0.00),IOP=160.395+1.866×RTV+ 0.201×CCT+34.554×LT-2.649×CC+0.063×ST between actual IOP and RTV (R=0.95,P=0.00).Conclusions The physiological parameters of rabbit eyeball are obviously different from human.The STV,PTV and RTV have a great measuring error in comparson with actual IOP,and therefore it is necessary to correct STV,PTV and RTV based on the ocular physiology parameters in experimental study.

Objective To explore the effect of evidence-based nursing on improving the compliance of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with noninvasive positive pressure ventilation. Methods Forty-five patients hospitalized in the first half of the year were assigned as control group and another 45 patients hospitalized in the second half of the year were as experiment group. The control group was treated with traditional nursing methods. In the experiment group, a nursing panel was set up to analyze the causes of noncompliance of COPD patients with noninvasive positive pressure ventilation and gave care to the patients based on the analyses. The two groups were compared in terms of adverse reactions and the compliance with treatment. Result The rates of compliance with treatment and adverse reactions such as fear and anxiety , the man-machine confrontation and flatulence in the experiment group were significantly lower than those of the control group obviously (P<0.05). Conclusion The evidence-based nursing can reduce the incidence of adverse reactions , and enhance the compliance of COPD patients with noninvasive positive pressure ventilation effectively.

Objective To observe the effects of different collagenase digestions on isolating human umbilical cord mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) from Wharton’s jelly, to exam their differentiation ability and to investigate their passage effect on the immune phenotype. Methods Human umbilical cord samples were digested by collagenaseⅠorⅡorⅣfor 4-18 hours then were passed through sieves . Cells were collected by centrifugation then inoculated in DMEM/F12 medium at concentration within range of 4.8×103-1×104/cm2 to compare the effect of different digestions on MSC. Von kossa staining and tetracycline fluorescence was used to label the osteogenic differentiation capacity of MSC. Also RT-PCR was employed to identify the differentiate capacity of MSC into myocardial-like cells. The immunophenotype of MSCs were detected by flow cytometry after subculture. Results Using collagenaseⅠdigestion, the number of MSCs isolated from human umbilical cord in Wharton’s jelly and their vitality were much higher while the period to show cell extension and primary culture time were shorter than those using collagenaseⅡorⅣdigestions. The analysis of surface marker revealed that the expression of positive markers include CD29, CD44, CD73, CD90 and CD105 did not change with passages while the negative markers such as CD31, CD34 and HLA-DR increased significantly with passages;Differential experiments induced in vitro show that human umbilical cord MSC in wharton’s jelly had the ability to differentiate into osteoblasts and myocardial-like cells. Con?clusion The human umbilical cord MSC in Wharton’s jelly was successfully isolated by collagenaseⅠdigestion. This meth?od was simple with a high success rate while cell loss and damage were minimum. This makes large-scale cultivation possi? ble. Negative markers increased with cell passages. This phenomenon revealed that MSC showed directional differentiation.
