Brain metastases from lung cancer is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality,whichis lack of effective treatment.Because chemotherapeutic drugs are thought to not cross the blood-brain barrier(BBB), the role of chemotherapy in the treatment of brain metastases remains controversial. For yearsradiotherapy has been the standard treatment for brain metastases.However, recent studies have confirmedthat the BBB in patients with brain metastases tumors are broken down.At the same time,researchers havefound some new methods for chemotherapeutic drugs to reach the brain metastases.Chemotherapy will play amore and more active role in the treatment of brain metastases tumors.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the economic effects of different therapeutic schemes for knee osteoarthritis.METHODS: The clinical data of 116 patients with knee osteoarthritis were divided into three groups,namely,Group A(taking Celebrex 200 mg q.d for 28 days);Group B(Celebrex 200 mg daily orally plus topically application of Diclofenac diethylammonium);and Group C(Celebrex 200 mg daily orally plus topically application of 4 boxes of Capsacin ointment).The improvement of knee osteoarthritis was evaluated by Lysholm rating system.And a cost-effectiveness analysis was conducted.RESULTS: The costs of Group A,B,and C were 206.97 yuan,252.77 yuan and 298.53 yuan respectively;the effective rates were 61.54%,71.05% and 84.62%,respectively;the cost-effectiveness ratios were 336.32,355.76 and 352.79,respectively.The incremental cost-effectiveness ratios of Group B and C as against Group A were 481.60 and 396.71,respectively.CONCLUSION: In Group C compared Group A,the effective rate was significantly higher;and as compared with Group B,the cost for gaining each unit of effectiveness in Group C was significantly lower.Group C is the optimal one among the three schemes.

Objective To compare and analyze the clinical curative effect of pituitrin and oxytocin applying in laparoscopic uterine myomectomy intraoperation .Methods According to surgical hemostasis method ,68 patients with uterine fibroids were divided into pituitrin group (group A) and oxytocin group(group B).The surgery time,intr-aoperative blood loss ,the change of postoperative hemoglobin levels and the change of blood pressure before and after treatment were observed.Results In A group,the operative time was (69.8 ±18.0)min,blood loss was (68.3 ± 19.1)mL,postoperative discharge time was (15.2 ±7.8)h,preoperative and postoperative hemoglobin difference val-ue was (10.4 ±2.6) g/L,which were significantly better than those in group B [(82.8 ±17.6) min,(88.5 ± 25.6)mL,(19.4 ±5.9)h,(13.5 ±2.9)g/L],the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05).Postopera-tive morbidity rate in group A was 5 cases,that in group B was 9 cases,the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05).In A group,the systolic blood pressure was (152.0 ±8.5)mmHg after treatment for 15min,which was significantly higher than (132.5 ±10.2)mmHg in group B,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the systolic blood pressure after treatment for 30min and 45min, and the diastolic blood pressure before and after treatment (all P>0.05).Conclusion Application of pituitrin in laparoscopic surgical hemostasis for patients with uterine fibroids can effectively reduce the surgery time ,decrease the blood loss ,its surgical hemostasis effect is better than oxytocin ,which is worth further clinical application .

It has been shown that two pathways of signal transduction are activated under the stimulation of cytokines , such as IL-1?TNF-? ?EGF?TGF-? ?PDGF?IGF-1, secreted by fibroblast-like synoviocytes with rheumatoid arthritis. They are receptor tyrosine kinases-Ras-MAPK pathway and non- receptor tyrosine kinases-JAK-STAT pathway. The former activation plays an important role in chronic synovitis of rheumatoid arthritis. More researches are expected to focus on G-protein-AC-cAMP signal transduction pathway and the internal relations of all kinds of pathways.

Objective To study the characteristics of serum lipid metabolism in cadres aged 90 and above.Methods A total of 105 in-patient cadres aged 90 and above were assigned to the longevity group,and another 85 in-patient cadres aged 60 to 80 years were used as controls.Medical history of the participants were retrospectively reviewed,and serum levels of total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),apoB,apoA-I,Lp(a)and body mass index(BMI)were tested.Results Compared with the control group,TC,TG,LDL-C,apoB and non-HDL-C were significantly decreased in the longevity group[3.90 +0.89 vs 4.36 ± 1.06,0.89(0.57)vs 1.16(0.69),2.35 ±0.72 vs 2.70 ±0.88,0.68 ±0.19 vs 0.75 ±0.22,2.69 ±0.79 vs 3.18 ± 1.00,respectively].However,HDL-C/TC and HDL-C/LDL-C were significantly increased in the longevity group [0.32 ±0.084 vs 0.28 ±0.082,0.52(0.22)vs 0.43(0.28),respectively].Lp(a)of the longevity group was higher than that of the control group,although no statistically significant difference was found.BMI of the longevity group was significantly lower than that of the control group.In the longevity group,the percentage of individual who were combined with hypertension,hyperglycemia,hyperlipidemia and overweight/fat was lower (24.8％ vs 43.5％).Conclusions Serum lipid level is relatively lower in cadres aged 90 and above,and those who are combined with hypertension,hyperglycemia,hyperlipidemia and overweight/fat are significantly lower in this populations.

ObjectiveTo study streptococcus pneumonia capsular polysaccharide antibodies of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) in acute exacerbation and the feasibility of vaccination for patients with COPD.MethodsThe COPD in acute exacerbation without respiratory failure (RF)(COPD without RF group),COPD in acute exacerbation with RF (COPD with RF group),asthma (asthma group),healthy elderly examination(elderly examination group) and healthy youth examination (youth examination group) were selected,and each group had 15 cases.The levels of streptococcus pneumonia capsular polysaccharide antibodies IgG,IgM and IgA were measured in all groups.Results There was no significant difference in IgG among the five groups (P ＞ 0.05 ).The levels of IgM in COPD without RF group and elderly examination group were significantly lower than those in COPD with RF group,asthma group and youth examination group (0.554 ± 0.309 and 0.538 ± 0.327 vs.0.810 ± 0.387,0.887 ± 0.278 and 0.852 ± 0.305,P ＜ 0.05 ).Although the level of IgA in COPD without RF group was significantly lower than that in youth examination group(0.532 ±0.297 vs.0.930 ±0.502,P ＜0.05),there was no significant difference among the five groups.Conclusion Patients with COPD should inoculate pneumococcal vaccination.

Objective To investigate IL-1?mRNA expression and protein secretion after ultraviolet irradiation in human keratinocyte(KC)originated SCC12F cells.Methods Expression of IL-1?mRNA was detected by Northern blot and the secretion level of IL-1?protein was analyzed by ELISA.Results There was a spontaneous expression of IL-1?mRNA in SCC12F cells in culture system of normal KC,which was increased along with the culture time,and reached the highest expression level in120hours.The secretion level of IL-1?protein was increased in a time-and dose-dependent manner in SCC12F cells after ultraviolet B(UVB)irradiation.Conclusions SCC12F cells may express IL-1?mRNA spontaneously under regular KC media.The secretion level of IL-1?protein shows both time-and dose-effect after UVB irradiation.
