1.Expression of E-selectin in colorectal neoplasm and its role in the metastasis of blood line
Journal of Chongqing Medical University 2007;0(07):-
Objective: To investigate the level of cell adhesion molecule E-selectin in colorectal neoplasm and its relations with metastasis in the blood line. Methods:E-selectin expression in colorectal carcinoma and normal colorectal tissue were detected with immunohisochemical technique. The change of shift ability of human colorectal neoplasm cell line was analyzed. Results: The expressing rate of E-selectin was 57.5%,obviously higher than 6.67% in the normal colorectal tissue(P

Objective To investigate the value of CT guided 125 I seed implantation combined with chemotherapy in the treat-ment of unresectable non-small cell lung cancer .Methods The related data of 42 cases of middle and advanced non-small cell lung cancer treated in this hospital from January 2012 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed .The group A (23 cases) received the 125I seed implantation combined with chemotherapy ,while the group B(19 cases) adopted the simple chemotherapy .All cases conducted the chest CT re-examination at 1 ,2 ,6 months after treatment .The curative effects and complications were compared be-tween the two groups .Results The total effect rate (RR) at 1 ,2 ,6 months had statistical difference between the two groups (P<0 .05) .The adverse reactions in the group A were small ,large amounts of pneumothorax (26 .1% ,6/23) ,bone marrow suppression (26 .1% ,6/23) ,nausea and vomiting(30 .4% ,7/23) ,which in the group B were d 5 .3% (1/19) in the group B were bone marrow suppression (36 .8% ,7/19) ,nausea and vomiting (26 .3% ,5/19) .No severe complications were observed .The occurrence rate of adverse reactions had no statistical difference between the two groups (P>0 .05) .The adverse reactions were improved after symp-tomatic treatment .Conclusion CT guided 125 I seed implantation combined with chemotherapy has higher effective rate and more significant effect in treating unresectable non-small cell lung cancer .

To investigate the effect of the interval between neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) and surgery on the clinical outcome of esophageal cancer. Methods PubMed and EMbase databases from inception to March 2018 were retrieved by computer. A random-effect model was used for all meta-analyses irrespective of heterogeneity. The meta-analysis was performed by RevMan5.3 software. The primary outcomes were operative mortality, incidence of anastomotic leakage, and overall survival; secondary outcomes were pathologic complete remission rate, R0 resection rate, and positive resection margin rate. Results A total of 17 studies with 18 173 patients were included. Among them, 13 were original studies with 2 950 patients, and 4 were database-based studies with a total of 15 223 patients. The results showed a significant positive correlation between the interval and operative mortality (Spearman coefficient=0.360, P=0.027). Dose-response meta-analysis revealed that there was a relatively better time window for surgery after nCRT. Further analysis for primary outcomes at different time cut-offs found the following results: (1) when the time cut-off point within 30-70 days, the shorter interval was associated with a reduced operative mortality (7-8 weeks: RR=0.67, 95% CI 0.55-0.81, P<0.05; 30-46 days: RR=0.63, 95%CI 0.47-0.85, P<0.05; 60-70 days: RR=0.64, 95%CI 0.48-0.85, P<0.05); (2) when the time cut-off point within 30-46 days, the shorter interval correlated with a reduced incidence of anastomotic leakage (RR=0.39, 95%CI 0.21-0.72, P<0.05); when the time cut-off point within 7-8 weeks, the shorter interval could achieve a critical-level effect of reducing the incidence of anastomotic leakage (RR=0.73, 95%CI 0.52-1.03, P>0.05); (3) when the time cut-off point within 7-8 weeks, increased interval significantly was associated with the poor overall survival (HR=1.17, 95% CI 1.00-1.36, P<0.05). Secondary outcomes found that the shorter interval could significantly reduce the positive resection margin rate (RR=0.53, 95% CI 0.38-0.75, P<0.05) when time cut-off point within 56-60 days. Conclusion Shortening the interval between nCRT and surgery can reduce the operative mortality, the incidence of anastomotic leakage, long-term mortality risk, and positive resection margin rate. It is recommended that surgery should be performed as soon as possible after the patient's physical recovery, preferably no more than 7-8 weeks, which supports the current study recommendation (within 3-8 weeks after nCRT).
