Objective To compare the therapeutic effects of three therapeutics to earlier primary gastric diffuse large B cell lymphoma(PG-DLBCL).Methods By reviewing a data-base of 66 patients with earlier PG-DLBCL from Aug 2000 to Oct 2011 were enrolled,patients were divided into chemotherapy alone(21 cases),radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy(22 cases) and surgery followed chemotherapy group(23 cases),and to comparing the prognosis of the three therapeutics.Results The complete remission rates(CR) of the three groups was 47.6%,77.3%,65.2% (P > 0.05).The median progression-free survival(PFS)of the three groups in 66 patients was 61.5,90.4 and 79.1 months,the radiotherapy combined group was proven to be significantly better than chemotherapy alone group and surgery followed chemotherapy group(x2 =6.726,P <0.05).The 3-year survival rate of the three groups was 81.6%,90.5% and 82.6%.The five year survival rate was 72.5%,90.5%,82.6%.There was no significant difference (P > 0.05) in 3-year survival rate and 5-year survival rate.Conclusions Radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy can significantly improve the PFS without increasing the risk of other adverse outcomes,and could be the first treatment way for the earlier PG-DLBCL.

Objective To compare the effect and safety of rituximab plus CHOP (R-CHOP) and CHOP regimens for the treatment of newly diagnosed patients with early-stage primary gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PG-DLBCL). Methods A total of 65 patients with PG-DLBCL were retrospectively divided into two groups: 35 patients were treated with R-CHOP regimen, the others with CHOP regimen. NHL international efficacy assessment and WHO criteria were used to assess the therapeutic and the adverse reactions respectively. Results The complete remission (CR) rate of R-CHOP group was 74.3 % (26/35), which was significantly higher than that of CHOP group [50.0 % (15/30), P< 0.05], but the adverse reactions rates of two groups had no significant difference (P>0.05). The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the five-year survival rates of two groups had no significant difference (88.6%vs 75.0%, P>0.05). The PFS of R-CHOP group was better than that of CHOP group (94.4 months vs 74.9 months, P< 0.05). Conclusion Compared with CHOP regimen , R-CHOP regimen increases the therapeutic efficacy in patients with PG-DLBCL, and dose not increase the adverse reactions.

Objective To evaluate the similarities and differences between four-dimensional radiotherapy (4D-CT ) and active breathing control techniques(ABC) in respiratory management in lung radiotherapy ,and investigate the indications and feasibility of different breathing control techniques for different patients .Methods Twenty-one patients treated with lung radiotherapy received respiratory management .4D-CT technology was used in 11 patients ,while ABC technology was adopted in the rest 10 .The ratios of planning target volume(PGTV) to gross tumor volume(GTV)[(PGTV/GTV)] were calculated .The differences between these two respiratory management technologies were compared in terms of the PGTV ,positioning time ,planning time and treatment time to investigate the indications .Results 4D-CT technology had higher PGTV/GTV ratio ,and shorter positioning time and irradiation time than ABC technology(P<0 .05) ,but there was no significant difference in the planning time(P>0 .05) .In patients with ABC and 4D-CT technology ,objective response rates were 50 .0% ,45 .5% ,respectively ,and the radiation pneumonitis rates were 30 .0% ,27 .3% ,respectively .There was no significant difference in both groups (P>0 .05) .Conclusion In lung tumor radiothera-py ,ABC can reduce irradiation volume ,suitable for patients with good performance status .4D-CT is time-saving and well tolerated , suitable for patients with smaller tumors .

Radiotherapy is the most common treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and the radiotherapy technique is essential for the prognosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Due to the complexity of the structure of the intensity-modulated device and the accuracy of the clinical requirements of radiotherapy, it is inevitable that higher requirements will be imposed on the process of intensity-modulated radiotherapy. Currently, gaps exist in the radiotherapy equipment and personnel qualification among radiotherapy units, and thus the homogenization in the radiotherapy remains to be strengthened in China. With the application of radiotherapy information management system, digital medicine and artificial intelligence technologies in the field of radiotherapy, the original process fails to meet the application needs of the new precise radiotherapy technology. Therefore, this process is designed based on the existing radiotherapy procedures for nasopharyngeal carcinoma in combination with the latest developments in the field of radiotherapy, aiming to establish a novel standard process recommendation, ensuring the standardization and homogenization of radiotherapy and achieve the individualized intensity-modulated radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients.
