Background and purpose:Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer death in the world. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether Fas-670 G>A and Fasl-844 T>C polymorphisms were associated with the risk of lung cancer.Methods:Data from 400 lung cancer patients with speciifc histological diagnosis were collected from 2010 to 2015. Meanwhile, data from matched healthy controls with the same gender and ±5 years were also collected. The genotypes of Fas-670 G>A and Fasl-844 T>C polymorphisms were determined by TaqMan lfuorescent probe method, and the results were analyzed using SPSS 16.0 software.Results:A total number of 386 cases and 394 controls were successfully genotyped. Compared with AA genotypeofFasgene, the GA and GG genotype carriers had no signiifcantly increased risk of lung cancer.The OR values were 1.05 (95%CI: 0.77-1.44) and 0.77 (95%CI: 0.81-1.99) respectively. Compared with TT genotype ofFasl gene, the CT and CC genotype carriers had signiifcantly increased risk of lung cancer. The OR values were 1.37 (95%CI: 1.01-1.86) and 1.74 (95%CI: 1.09-2.77), respectively. Conclusion:Fasl-844 T>C polymorphism may be involved in lung cancer risk but not Fas-670 G>A polymorphism.

Objective To explore the effects of ureteral stent on renal pelvic pressure and other urodynamic parameters. Methods Forty-one patients, 28 males and 13 females, with unilateral renal calculi and/or ureteral calculi were recruited in this study. The mean patient age was 47 years old (ranging from 20 to 72 years old). All cases were placed a 4.7 F ureteral stent and 16 F nephrostomy tube after minimal invasive pereutaneona nephrolithotomy (MPCNL). There was no hydronephrosis and residual crushed stone in the ureter after MPCNL in all cases. Renal pelvic pressure, intra-abdo minal pressure, detrusor pressure, bladder pressure changes during the filling and voiding phases with intravesical perfusion flow rate of 40 ml/min were recorded and analyzed. Results At the baseline, IPP0, IAP0, DP0 and BP0 were (33.1±17.0)cm H2O, (27.5±7.0)cm H2O, (3.3±2.9)cm H2O and (30. 9±7.2)cm H2O, respectively; At the maximum cystometric capacity during the filling phase, IPPvol, IAPvol Dpvol and Bpvol were (39.4±67. 3)cm H2O, (31.1±7.3)cm H2O, (10.7±6. 6) cm H2O and (41.6±10.3)cm H2O, respectively; At the maximum bladder pressure during the voiding phase, IPPmax, IAPmax Dpmax and Bpmax were (65.7±17.0)cm H2O, (33.7±9. 7)cm H2O, (41.9±7.8)cm H2O and (75.0±12. 8)cm H2O, respectively;There were statistical significance comparing between any of IPP0, IPPvol and IPPmax(P<0. 01). 27% (11/41)patients were with the pain in kidney area at voiding IPPmax (87.1±14.6) cm H2O, which was significantly higher than IPPmax (57.8±9.5)cm H2O of asyrnptomatic group (30 patients)(P<0. 01). In all cases, the renal pelvic pressure was higher than 40 cm H2O during the voiding phase. Conclusions Renal pelvic pressure increases during the filling phase after placing the ureteral stent, especially during the voiding phase. As renal function will be damaged by the high renal pelvic pressure, we should decrease the utilization of ureteral stent if possible. It is encouraged to remove the ureteral stent as early as possible.
