Objective To compare the dosemetry between helical tomotherapy (HT) and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for early-stage postoperative breast cancer and provide more valuable evidences to the clinical researches. Methods Clinical trails of dosimetric comparing between HT and IMRT for early-stage breast cancer were obtained from PubMed, Embase, Sciencedirect, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang databases, evaluated and analyzed with the Cochrane Collaboration's RevMan 5.2 software. Results 10 studies were included with a total of 135 patients. Compared to IMRT plans, HT plans provided a significantly better conformity index (P<0.000 1), mean (P<0.000 01) and maximal dose (P=0.003) of the planning target volume (PTV). HT plans had a lower heart maximal dose (P=0.005), V20 (P=0.05), V30 (P=0.003), and ipsilateral lung maximal dose (P=0.003), V20 (P=0.02), as while as had a higher contralateral breast V5 (P=0.01), mean (P=0.05) and maximal dose (P<0.000 01). There was no significantly difference between HT and IMRT plans for homogeneity index of PTV, heart V5, V10, mean dose, ipsilateral lung V5, V10, V30, mean dose, contralateral breast V10, contralateral lung mean and maximal dose (all P >0.05). Conclusion Compared to IMRT plans, HT plans have the dosimetry superiority for early-stage breast cancer with significantly better coverage and dose conformity while maintaining lower doses to high risk organs.

ObjectiveTo study on the different therapeutic effects and potential mechanisms of Rhei Radix et Rhizoma（RH） before and after steaming with wine on constipation model mice. MethodsFifty-four male ICR mice were randomly divided into control group， model group， lactulose group（1.5 mg·kg^-1）， high， medium and low dose groups of RH and RH steaming with wine（PRH）（8， 4， 1 g·kg^-1）. Except for the control group， the constipation model was replicated by gavage of loperamide hydrochloride（6 mg·kg^-1） in the other groups. After 2 weeks of modeling， each administration group was gavaged with the corresponding dose of drug solution， and the control and model groups were given an equal volume of normal saline， 1 time/d for 2 consecutive weeks. After administration， the feces were collected for 16S rRNA sequencing， the levels of gastrin（GAS）， motilin（MTL）， interleukin-6（IL-6）， γ-interferon（IFN-γ） in the colonic tissue were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA）， the histopathological changes of colon were observed by hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining， flow cytometry was used to detect the proportion changes of CD4⁺， CD8⁺ and regulatory T cell（Treg） in peripheral blood. ResultsCompared with the control group， the model group showed significantly decrease in fecal number in 24 h， fecal quality and fecal water rate（P<0.01）， the colon was seen to have necrotic shedding of mucosal epithelium， localized intestinal glands in the lamina propria were degenerated， necrotic and atrophied， a few lymphocytes were seen to infiltrate in the necrotic area in a scattered manner， the contents of GAS and MTL， the proportions of CD4⁺， CD8⁺ and Treg were significantly reduced（P<0.01）， the contents of IL-6 and IFN-γ were significantly elevated（P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the fecal number in 24 h， fecal quality and fecal water rate of high-dose groups of RH and PRH were significantly increased（P<0.05， P<0.01）， the pathological damage of the colon was alleviated to varying degrees， the contents of GAS， MTL， IL-6 and IFN-γ were significantly regressed（P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the proportions of CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ were significantly increased（P<0.01）， although the proportion of Treg showed an upward trend， there was no significant difference. In addition， the results of intestinal flora showed that the number of amplicon sequence variant（ASV） and Alpha diversity were decreased in the model group compared with the control group， and there was a significant difference in Beta diversity， with a decrease in the relative abundance of Lactobacillus and an increase in the relative abundances of Bacillus and Helicobacter. Compared with the model group， the ASV number and Alpha diversity were increased in the high-dose groups of RH and PRH， and there was a trend of regression of Beta diversity to the control group， the relative abundance of Lactobacillus increased， and the relative abundances of Bacillus and Helicobacter decreased. ConclusionRH and PRH can improve dysbacteriosis， promote immune system activation， inhibit the release of inflammatory factors for enhancing the gastrointestinal function， which may be one of the potential mechanisms of their therapeutic effect on constipation.

Critical care medicine-related treatment is an interdisciplinary and multi-professional process,often leading to secondary or concomitant mental disorders in clinical practice.Currently,there is no consensus on the pharmacological treatment of related mental illnesses in China.The Chinese Society of Psychosomatic Medicine collaborated with the Critical Care Medicine expert group to form a consensus writing expert group.After a systematic review of relevant literature,summarizing published domestic and foreign literature,and extensive discussions,the consensus was developed.The consensus elaborates on the principles and processes of the standardized use of psychotropic drugs in critical care medicine,as well as the clinical indications,precautions,and specific drug selection of various psychiatric medications,providing feasible suggestions and guidance for the clinical application of psychiatric medications in the intensive care unit.

With the changes in the disease spectrum and the advancement of examination technology, the detection rate of multiple primary lung cancers (MPLC) is gradually increasing when multiple nodules and masses in the lung are examined clinically. MPLC has significant distinction with other types of lung diseases or lung cancers in the treatment and prognosis. In most cases, patients would be recommended to undergo the surgery as soon as possible which means that the accurate diagnosis should be made before surgery or during treatment. The newly developed molecular and genomic methods are more likely to better determine the relationship between multiple lesions. Artificial intelligence can be used as a related diagnostic aid to show more accurate and objective results in the diagnosis of multiple pulmonary nodules. This review summarizes the latest MPLC diagnostic research (including pathological analysis, imaging), analyzes surgical treatment methods, and looks forward to the future research direction of MPLC diagnosis and treatment, in order to provide reference for MPLC research.

Surgery is currently the most appropriate treatment for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Increasing unilateral or bilateral multiple primary lung cancer being found, segmentectomy has attracted wide attention for its unique advantages in the treatment for such tumors. Ground glass opacity dominant early-stage NSCLC is associated with a good prognosis and can be cured by segmentectomy, however, the treatment of solid-dominant NSCLC remains controversial owing to the invasive nature. With the in-depth study on the lymph node metastasis pathway, radiological characteristics and molecular biology of NSCLC, a large part of solid nodules with certain characteristics can also be cured by segmentectomy. This paper reviews the research status and progress about the indication of segmentectomy.
