Targeted therapy is the most prospective part of the research related to the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). After epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR),anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)gene is expected to become a new target in the treatment of NSCLC. Moreover,several related resear-ches suggest that ALK inhibitor(crizotinib)is effective for treatment of ALK-rearranged NSCLC. Therefore,it is important to review the detection method of ALK gene,clinicopathologic features and the research progress of ALK inhibitor for the individual treatment of NSCLC.

Objective To explore methods of diagnostic and treatment for renal cortical abscess to reduce its misdiagnosis.Methods Eleven cases of renal cortical abscess diagnosed and treated at Beijing International Airport Hospital during 1991 to 2003 were reviewed and analyzed.Results Among the 11 patients with renal cortical abscess,diagnosis was established in nine(82%)before treatment,seven were cured by incision and drainage,one was cured by incision and drainage only after failure in percutaneous nephropuncture,and one was cured by intravenous injection of antibiotics.Two cases(18%)were misdiagnosed as renal cancer and radical nephrectomy were performed for them.Conclusions Diagnosis for renal cortical abscess should be based on combination of patients clinical manifestation,laboratory examinations and imaging findings.Incision and drainage is the choice of treatment for renal cortical abscess.

Objective To evaluate left ventricular torsion in patients after coronary artery bypass graft(CABG) surgery by velocity vector imaging(VVI). Methods Twelve patients who were scheduled to have CABG surgery were enrolled. VVI offline software was used to evaluate myocardial rotation in both basal and apical segment before and three months after CABG. The rotation and rotation rate of each a counterclockwise rotation at the apex and a clockwise rotation at the base, and the absolute value of CABG the rotation at the base was significantly improved than that before CABG (P <0.001), and the rotation in the segment of anterior septum, anterior wail and inferior septum at the base was higher than that rotation in the apical and basal segment three months after CABG was also significantly higher than that negative peak rotation rate in the early diastolic period at the apex were significantly higher than those at the improved than that before CABG (P <0.001). And the positive peak rotation of the systolic period in the segment of anterior septum,anterior wall,lateral wall and inferior septum and the negative peak rotation of the diastolic period in the segment of anterior and inferior septum at the base were also higher than those before CABG (P <0.001). Conclusions VVI is a useful method which can quantitatively assess left ventrieular torsion in patients before and after CABG surgery.

Objective To assess whether echocardiographic parameters of M-mode,pulsed-wave Doppler and tissue Doppler imaging which were usually used for selecting cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) candidates could predict CRT responders.Methods Twenty-nine patients with NYHA class Ⅲ or Ⅳ heart failure,left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)≤35%,QRS≥130 ms were enrolled.All of them underwent biventricular pacemaker implantation.The septal-to-posterior wall motion delay(SPWMD) from M-mode recording,and the standard deviation of time to peak systolic velocity(Ts-SD) were used to evaluate intraventricular dyssynchrony.The interventricular mechanical delay (IVMD) by pulsed Doppler echocardiography was calculated by subtracting the right ventricular preejection intervals (RV-PEI:the onset of the QRS on the electrocardiogram to the onset of pulmonary outflow) from the left ventricular preejection intervals (LV-PEI:the onset of the QRS on the electrocardiogram to the onset of aortic outflow).At least 15 % reduction in left ventricular end-systolic volume(LVESV) at the 6-month after CRT was defined as responder.Results In the 29 patients,there were 20 (68.97%) responders.The area under the receiver operating curve(ROC) of SPWMD,Ts-SD,LV-PEI,RV-PEI and IVMD to predict CRT responders was 0.448 (95% CI 0.184-0.712,P＞0.05),0.557 (95% CI 0.317-0.798,P＞0.05),0.479 (95% CI 0.186-0.773,P＞0.05),0.568 (95 % CI 0.272-0.863,P＞0.05) and 0.411 (95% CI0.136-0.687,P＞0.05),respectively.Conclusions M-mode echocardiography,pulsed Doppler and tissue Doppler imaging failed to predict CRT responders.New echocardiographic techniques including threedimensional echocardiography and speckle tracking image will be investigated,and may improve the predictive power.

Long tracheal lesions are mainly caused by stenosis, infection, trauma, malignant tumors and other factors. Resection of the diseased tissue or stenosis and end-to-end anastomosis is currently the gold standard for long tracheal lesions treatment. However, these treatment programs have proven to have major limitations. In recent years, tissue engineering technology has been regarded as a promising medical alternative treatment method, and the selection of scaffold materials is one of key parts. With the continuous exploration of domestic and foreign researchers, biological materials have been continuously developed and applied to the research of tissue engineering trachea. Tissue engineering degradable scaffold materials can be divided into natural polymer material scaffolds and synthetic polymer scaffolds according to the different sources. The scaffold material can be modified or compounded as needed to improve the biological properties of scaffolds. In addition, with the continuous development of biological printing technology, different scaffold materials can be better combined and used. Biodegradable scaffolds have become a new research direction in the field of tissue engineering trachea due to their polymer properties, and have good application prospects.

One of the key contents in tissue engineering trachea replacement research is the scaffold selection.This review summarizes the latest original literatures and investigations about electrospun technique as well as recent progress.To discuss the advantages and disadvantages of natural,synthetic and combined electrospun scaffolds,the versatility in material choosing and production methods is the unique superiority.For specific experimental or clinical objects,the further research is to choose a suitable polymer,to improve surface modification techniques and to control the dimension and arrangement of the fibrous structure of electrospun fibers,which can offer versatility and tissue specificity,and therefore provide a bright prospect for tissue engineering trachea.

Objective To investigate the modulatory effect of different dosage of sufentanil on I GABA in rat dorsal root ganglion neurons. Methods The rat root ganglion neurons were enzymatically dissociated. The whole-cell patch clamp techniquewas applied to record the effect of 0.02 , 0.1, 0.5, 2.5 μmol/L sufentanil and 0.5 mol/L sufentanil + 1 nmol/L Naloxone, a non-specific ityopioid receptor antagonist on IGABA. Results 0.02, 0.1, 0.5, 2.5 μmol/L sufentanil potentiated IGABA to (108.7 ± 6.7)%,(122.0 ± 2.3)%, (146.7 ± 7.9)% and (130.1 ± 5.6)%, respectively (n = 10; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01). The potentiation role of 0.1,0.5, 2.5 μmol/L sufentanil on IGABA lasted 10 to 20 min The potentiation could be blocked by Naloxone (n = 7; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01). Conclusion Sufentanil activates μ opioid receptor and potentiates the action of GABAA receptor, and the potentiation could be blocked by Naloxone. The enhancement of currents by sufentanil may increase GABA A receptor-mediated presynaptic inhibition at the spinal cord level.
