Objective To study clinical features, treatment and prognosis of nasal NK/T cell lymphoma associated Hemophagocytic Syndrome (HPS).Methods Retrospectively analysis method was used to analyze the clinical data of 3 patients with nasal NK/T cell lymphoma associated HPS. Results 3 patients with nasal NK/T cell lymphoma fulfilled the criteria of HPS. All patients had adverse prognostic factors of lymphoma.1 patient developed HPS as the main primary manifestations of underlying lymphoma,the other 2 patients developed HPS during lymphoma progression. In three cases, bone marrow was infiltrated with lymphoma cells.When HPS occurred,the disease progressed rapidly.The most obvious clinical features were fever,pancytopenia,hypofibrinogenemia,hyperferritinemia,and hemophagocytosis in bone marrow. After being treated according to the HLH-2004 combined with chemotherapy, all patients showed a clinical response,but with the progression of lymphoma,HPS quickly relapsed,and all patients died of severe hepatic dysfunction,coagulopathy,or DIC.Conclusion Nasal NK/T lymphoma associated HPS is an invariably fatal disease with poor prognosis,typically occurring at advanced stage or the terminal phase of the disease.HLH-2004 based protocol in combination with chemotherapy is helpful for nasal NK/T cell lymphoma associated HPS,which may delay disease progression and provid opportunities for the treatment of primary disease.

Objective To observe the therapeutically effect of kangnao liquid on Pi3k mRNA and Aktm RNA ex-pressions in rats with focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Methods 180 male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups:sham operated group, model group, three kangnao liquid groups (high-dose, medium-dose and low-dose) and nimodipine group. Rats in kangnao liquid groups were administrated with kangnao liquid of 24 g/(kg · d), 12 g/(kg · d) and 6 g/(kg · d), orally once a day. Rats in nimodipine group were given nimodipine 1 mg/(kg · d). Rats in model group and sham group were treated with the same volume of distilled water for 7 days. The animal model of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was established by a monofilament method from right internal carotid artery. The neurological evaluation was per-formed 24 h after reperfusion. The in situ hybridization was used to investigate the expression levels of Pi3k mRNA and Akt mRNA in rats on 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h and 168 h after ischemia for 2 h. Results Compared with model group, neurological functions were improved significantly in kangnao liquid groups. The expression levels of Pi3k mRNA and Akt mRNA were al-so significantly higher in kangnao liquid groups than those of model group. The expression levels of Pi3k mRNA and Akt mRNA were significantly higher in nimodipine group than those of model group, but which were lower compared with those of high-dose and medium-dose kangnao liquid groups. Conclusion Kangnao liquid can protect nerve cells by enhancing the expressions of Pi3k mRNA and Akt mRNA in rats with cerebral ischemia-reprefusion injury.

Objective To investigate the genetic effects of radio-frequency radiation (RF-radiation) on mammalian somatic cells. Methods A meta-analysis of reported data (1991-2009) was conducted to obtain a quantitative estimate of genotoxicity ( including single-and double-strand breaks in the DNA, incidence of chromosome aberration, micronuclei, and sister chromatid exchanges) in RF-radiationexposed cells compared with sham-exposed cells or unexposed control cells. Results After RF-radiation exposure, the weighted mean difference and its 95% confidence interval was 1.03(0. 74, 1.31 )for comet tail length in radiation group, and was 0. 10 (0. 04, 0. 16) for comet tail moment compared with control group. Relative risk and its 95% confidence interval for chromosome aberration was 1.21 (0. 68, 2. 13 )for lower than 2000 MHz RF-radiation exposure group, and 1.76( 1.05, 2.97 ) for more than 2000 MHz RF-radiation exposure group. The combined relative risk and its 95% confidence interval for micronuclei formation was 1.39(1.18-1.64). The combined WMD and its 95% confidence interval for sister chromatid exchanges in radiation group was 0. 40 ( - 0. 33,1.14 ) compared with control group. Conclusions On certain RF radiation exposure conditions, it can increase in the DNA damages and micronuclei formation.There might be an increase of chromosomal aberration occurrence for RF-radiation exposure above 2000 MHz, while no significant differences for those lower than 2000 MHz RF-radiation exposure. For the incidence of sister chromatid exchanges in mammalian somatic cells, RF-radiation exposure had no significant influence.

Objective Analyzed surgical outcome following Flex-3D thoracoscopy among 429 cases with lobectomy and segmentectomy in this paper to define its safety and efficacy.Methods From the completion of the Olympus Flex-3D integrated operation room in Shanghai Chest Hospital in June 2015 up to December 2016,a single surgeons team carried out 429 cases of Flex-3D anatomic video-assisted thoracic surgery.Demography,preoperative condition,perioperative period complications and pathology for these patients were analyzed and discussed.Results There was a total of 429 patients including 258 males and 171 females.The age at diagnosis was ranged 21-81 yds.Lobectomy was performed in 313 cases,segmentectomy in 116 cases.Among those with 389 primary malignant tumors,39 benign tumors and 1 MALT were anatomically resected.The mean number of lymph nodes resected was 11.10 ±4.58(1-30) and mean sampled lymph node stations 6.10 ± 1.34(1-10).1patient was converted to thoracotomy because of vessel injury.The average operation time was 98.00 ±24.61 min(range,35-274 min) and the average blood loss was(97.9 ±24.6)ml(range,50-400 ml).The postoperative hospital stay was(5.6 ± 1.3) days on average.There was no operative death,and operative complications occurred in 18 patients(4.1%).The 1-year overall survival and 1-year disease-free survival for the lung cancer group were 100% and 99.8%,respectively.Conclusion Flex-3D video-assisted thoracic surgery is a safe and effective surgical procedure featured by its added depth perception to facilitate operation and short learning curve.
