Objective To explore the correlation factors for surgical treatment in lumbar spinal tuberculosis.Methods A total of 46 patients with lumbar spinal tuberculosis who underwent surgical treatment were analyzed.The possible correlation between the clinicopathologic features and clinical outcome were analyzed by Logistic regression analysis.Results Nine patients failed in surgical treatment.Multiple analysis showed that the number of infected vertebrae (OR =6.44,95％ CI:2.47-19.92) and internal fixation (OR =10.76,95％ CI:3.50-18.74) had significant correlation with the clinical outcome.Conclusions Surgical treatment for lumbar spinal tuberculosis has a favorable outcome in patients.The number of infected vertebrae and internal fixation are significant risk factors for poor outcome.

Acupuncture is a traditional empirical medicine, and evidence-based medicine(EBM) is a new medical method and development of the empirical medicine. Since 1990s, Chinese acupuncture workers began to absorb and use the methods and principles of EBM to guide acupuncture clinical research and practice. Now more and more domestic acupuncture clinicians use and follow the methods and principles of EBM. On the systemic review of acupuncture-associated articles in Cochrane library, previously effective acupuncture therapy lacks adequate evidences, which may be related to the low quality of randomized controlled trials(RCTs). In the future, only developing specialized team of acupuncture clinical research and clinical research center can radically elevate the levels of acupuncture clinical research and evaluation. Meanwhile, developing China's evidence-based acupuncture should base itself on the characteristics of acupuncture, such as emphasis on original research in ancient books,high-quality single RCTs and systemic review of non-randomized researches.

Exosome is a self-secreted phospholipid bilayer nanovesicles, and has shown great potential in drug delivery field due to the important advantages of low immunogenicity and homologous targeting. Phototherapy, mainly includes photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), utilize light to activate photoactive drug for tumor cell killing. The advanced therapeutic strategy shows low toxic side-effect and non-invasion precise advantages, and thus has made great progress in tumor treatment over the past few years. Therefore, using exosomes as a drug delivery system to deliver phototherapeutic agents can improve therapeutic performances with a reduced side-effect, and further enhance their application potential for clinical tumor therapy. This review focus on the rising cross-subjects field involving exosomes and phototherapy, and mainly introduce the research progress and relative case of exosomes-based delivery system for cancer phototherapy. Additionally, the advantages and challenges of exosome-based phototherapy are also discussed and proposed.

Objective To investigate the correlation of pathology factors and prognosis of gastrointestinal stroma tumors (GIST). Methods The expression of CD117, CD34, SMA, S-100 and Ki-67 in 91 GIST cases were studied by Envision method of immunohistocbemistory;Sequently, the relationship of the location, the size, the hemorrhage, cellular necrosis, stroma mucus, the mitosis, Ki-67 expression and the prognosis were analyzed by SPSS 12.0. Results The positive rate of CD117, CD34, SMA, S-100 were 80.21%, 73.63 %, 34.07 %, 7.69 % respectively. There had significant difference between the location, the mitosis, Ki-67 expression and the prognosis; but no significant difference between the location, the hemorrhage, cellular necrosis, stroma mucus, CD117 expression and the prognosis. Conclusion The tumor's size, mitosis, and Ki-67 expression are associated with prognosis; CD117 expression and prognosis. Even more, Ki-67 expression may be a more precise factor to judge the tumor's biological behaviour compared to the mitosis. As a wally classified method, the Flecther classification is worth to spread.
