Objective To compare the clinical effect of whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) for brain metastases from lung adenocarcinoma between patients with and without epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for 89 patients with brain metastases from lung adenocarcinoma who were treated in our hospital from August 2010 to May 2015.EGFR testing was performed in all patients.WBRT (6-MV external X-ray beam) was performed at 30 Gy in 10 fractions or 40 Gy in 20 fractions;for patients with ≤3 brain metastases, simultaneous integrated boost intensity-modulated radiotherapy was performed at 40-45 Gy in 10 fractions or 50-60 Gy in 20 fractions.The response rate, intracranial progression-free survival (IPFS), and overall survival (OS) were compared between patients with EGFR mutations and patients with wild-type EGFR.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate IPFS and OS, the log-rank test was used for survival difference analysis and univariate prognostic analysis, and the Cox model was used for multivariate prognostic analysis.Results For these 89 patients, the overall response rate was 62%, the median IPFS was 7.0 months (95%CI:6.060-7.940), and the median OS was 12.0 months (95%CI:9.539-14.465).The univariate and multivariate analyses showed that the response rate was associated with Karnofsky Performance Scale (KPS) score and EGFR mutation status (P=0.009 and 0.035);KPS score and EGFR mutation status were significant prognostic factors for IPFS (P=0.048 and 0.000);KPS score and primary tumor control were significant prognostic factors for OS (P=0.000 and 0.031).Conclusions After WBRT for brain metastases from lung adenocarcinoma, the patients with EGFR mutations have a higher response rate and a longer IPFS compared with those with wild-type EGFR, but there is no significant in OS between the two groups of patients.

Objective To discuss dosimetric advantage,compliance,efficacy and prognostic factors of whole brain conformal intensity-modulated radiotherapy ( IMRT ) combined with synchronous dosage for treatment of brain metastases.Methods Forty-one patients with metastatic tumor to the brain were confirmed by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).They received whole brain irradiation and simultaneous integrated boost to bulky metastases by IMRT.Gross tumor volume(GTV) DT 4994-6990 cGy/ 22-30 fractions/4.4-6.0 weeks,whole brain DT 3990-5000 cGy/22-30 fractions/4.4-6.0 weeks.Results The median follow-up time was 6.4 months.The overall response rate,the median survival time and the overall survival at 1 year were 65.8 ％,8 months,24.4 ％.The brain-stem,spinalcord,lens,opticnerves were in the limited dose.In 21 patients,radioactive brain edema was happened,the rest did not appear early and late radiation reaction.Conclusion Whole brain irradiation using simultaneous integrated boost to bulky lesion by IMRT show an improvement in dose distribution and significant effect to patients with brain metastases.The therapy is well-tolerated and effective.

Objective To study the effects of Xiaoer-Chaigui-Tuire granules in the treatment of mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP). Methods A total of 200 children with mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia which conformed to the standard of admission were randomly divided into the control group (n=100) and the treatment group (n=100). The control group were treated with azithromycin, and the treatment group were treated with Xiaoer-Chaigui-Tuire granules combined with azithromycin. The temperature recovery time, cough disappeared time, asthma disappeared time, lungs rale disappeared time of the two groups were observed and compared. The serum IgG, IgM and IgA levels were detected by ELISA and the CD3, CD4, CD8 cell ratio of peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry. Results The total effect rate of the treatment group was 95.0％ (95/100), significantly higher than 80.0％ (80/100) of the control group (χ2=10.286, P=0.001). The fever disappeared time (2.5 ± 0.3 d vs. 4.2 ± 0.9 d, t=17.004), cough disappeared time (3.0 ± 0.6 d vs. 4.5 ± 0.5 d, t=19.861), asthma disappeared time (3.1 ± 1.1 d vs. 4.0 ± 1.3 d, t=5.046), lungs rale disappeared time (4.2 ± 1.0 d vs. 8.4 ± 1.5 d, t=22.988) and of the treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control group (P<0.01). After treatment, the IgG (9.47 ± 1.63 g/L vs. 7.05 ± 1.46 g/L, t=11.059), IgM (1.87 ± 0.52 g/L vs. 1.53 ± 0.48 g/L, t=4.804) and IgA (1.79 ± 0.61 g/L vs. 1.20 ± 0.53 g/L, t=7.301) of the treatment group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.01). After treatment, the blood CD3 levels (78.83％ ± 5.20 ％ vs. 57.48％ ± 4.09％, t=32.271), CD4 levels (40.27％ ± 3.42％ vs. 30.54％ ± 3.27％, t=20.563) of the treatment group were significantly higher than the control group, and the blood CD8 levels (21.15％ ± 2.90％ vs. 30.14％ ± 3.85％, t=18.651) of the treatment group were significantly lower than the control group (P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events between two groups (χ2=0.649, P=0.421). Conclusions The Xiaoer-Chaigui-Tuire granules combined with azithromycin for children with MPP has a good efficacy and low adverse events. They could relieve the clinical symptoms and improve the children's immune function.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors and mechanism of job satisfaction of medical staff based on grounded theory.Methods:A total of 33 literatures published in CNKI from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2019 were retrieved with the theme of " job satisfaction of medical staff" . By using NVivo 11.0 software, the 33 literatures were qualitatively analyzed, and the main categories influencing the job satisfaction of medical staff were obtained, and the action mechanism model was integrated on this basis.Results:The influencing factors of medical staff′s job satisfaction were summarized into 6 first-class nodes: work ecology, hospital management, basic health care, occupational cognition, individual characteristics and external environment. Among them, work ecology was the direct influence factor; hospital management was the key influencing factor, which played an important role in the work ecology; basic health care was the safeguard factor, which was affected by the work ecology; occupation cognition was the internal driving factor, individual characteristic was the internal uncontrollable factor, external environment was the external uncontrollable factor.Conclusions:In order to improve the job satisfaction of medical staff, we should optimize the work ecology, promote the innovation of hospital management, ensure the health and safety, and pay attention to the internalization of professional values.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between the status of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations and brain metastases in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Methods: From August 2010 to May 2015, a total of 1 063 lung adenocarcinoma patients with identified status of EGFR mutations in Shanxi Cancer Hospital were enrolled, of which 456 patients had EGFR mutations. Multivariate Logistic regression model was used to analyze the correlation between EGFR mutation status and brain metastases in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Results: In 125 patients with brain metastases before initial treatment, 65 patients had EGFR mutations, including 36 patients with deletion mutations in exon 19. The frequency of EGFR 19 exon mutation was 28.8% (36/125). Among 456 patients with EGFR mutations, 65(14.3%) patients were with brain metastases, in which 36(55.0%) had deletion mutations in exon 19. The multivariate analysis showed that age, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score, EGFR mutations and N staging were associated with brain metastases(P<0.05). Further subgroup multivariate analyses showed that age, ECOG score, mutation status in exon 19 and N staging were associated with brain metastases (P<0.05). Conclusions EGFR mutation status is related to brain metastases. Mutations in EGFR exon 19 is an independent risk factor for brain metastases.
