1.Combining chemotherapy with immunotherapy:from bench to bedside
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2017;44(9):452-458
Chemotherapy has been the cornerstone of cancer treatment for decades. However, albeit remarkable, the response to chemotherapy is generally short-lived. With deepened understanding of cancer immunology, resurgence was recently witnessed in the field of cancer immunotherapy. Unlike chemotherapy, immunotherapy induces a relatively mild but stable response. Accumulating evi-dence reveals that apart from chemotherapy's direct cytotoxic activity, chemotherapy exerts immune-potentiating effects by increas-ing the immunogenicity of tumor cells or by disrupting the tumor-induced immunosuppression and altering the immune microenviron-ment. The latter mechanism serves as the basis for the combined use of chemotherapy and immunotherapy. In this review, we exam-ine the rationale for combinatorial therapy in accordance with the current understanding on tumor immunity and newly discovered im-mune-based chemotherapeutic mechanisms. We further discuss the available preclinical and clinical studies on the combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy for cancer treatment. We aim to provide a framework for further research.

OBJECTIVE:To study the pharmacological actions of compound Yinshen granules(CYSG) on cerebral ischemia injuries in rats METHODS:Using an established middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)model devised by Tamura,we observed infarction areas of the brain and behaviour grade of cerebral apoplexy,and calculated brain water content and brain index RESULTS:CYSG(10 0g/kg,5 0g/kg in rats)significantly reduced infarction areas,ameliorated neurological symptoms,decreased brain water content and brain index after MCAO in rats CONCLUSION:CYSG can protect ischemia cerebral injuries in rats
4.Clinical analysis of 43 children with paragonimus pericarditis
Journal of Chongqing Medical University 2003;0(06):-
Objective:To study the clinical characteristics of children with paragonimus pericarditis.Methods:The diagnosis and treatment effect of 43 children with paragonimus pericarditis were retrospectively analysed.Results:There was diversity in the clicinal manifestations.Thirty-four cases were treated with praziquantel,pericardiocentesis,open pericardial drainage and so on.In 30 cases that were followed up,26 cases were cured and 4 cases developed pericardial constriction.Four cases with constrictive pericarditis were cured after pericardiectomy.Conclusion:The children with paragonimus pericarditis could be diagnosed early by careful asking of the case history of eating crabs,routine examination of the numbers of the acidophile in blood and pericardial effusion and paragonimus antigen intracutaneous test.It is possible to develop pericardial constriction after clinical cure in those cases that have had a long course of disease before treatment.
5.Software version and medical device software supervision.
Chinese Journal of Medical Instrumentation 2015;39(1):48-50
The importance of software version in the medical device software supervision does not cause enough attention at present. First of all, the effect of software version in the medical device software supervision is discussed, and then the necessity of software version in the medical device software supervision is analyzed based on the discussion of the misunderstanding of software version. Finally the concrete suggestions on software version naming rules, software version supervision for the software in medical devices, and software version supervision scheme are proposed.

6.The moderating effect of psychological resilience between family structure and children's peer relationship
Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science 2017;26(5):450-453
ObjectiveTo compare children's resilience and peer relationship in divorced and complete family,and explore the moderating effect of psychological resilience between family structure and peer relationship.Methods208 children from divorced family and 465 children from complete family were surveyed.Results(1)There were significant differences in children's resilience(divorced family (3.58±0.73),complete family(3.83±0.59),t=-2.765,P=0.006) and peer relationship(divorced family (3.47±0.72),complete family(3.73±0.59),t=-2.069,P=0.042) between complete and divorced family.(2) Family structure had remarkable negative correlation with resilience and peer relationship(r1=-0.19,r2=-0.20),and resilience had positive correlation with peer relationship(r=0.43).(3)The moderating effect of resilience between family structure and peer relationship was significant(β=0.641,P<0.05).ConclusionParent divorce has negative influence on children's resilience and peer relationship.Furthermore,the relationship of family structure and peer relationship is mediated by resilience.The negative influence of parent divorce on peer relationship is not significant among children with high resilience,while it is significant on children with low resilience.
7.The Influence of Plasma Lyte A on Glycometabolism in Type 2 Diabetic Patients during the Operation
Journal of Medical Research 2006;0(01):-
Objective To compare the effects of the two kinds of crystalloid solutions on glycometabolism in type 2 diabetic patients during the operation for the sclestion of the most suitable crystalloid solution. Methods In the forty scheduled gastrointestinal operation patients,there were twenty (D-group) type 2 diabetic patients and the others (N-group) were non-diabetic patients. Each of the two groups were randomly divided into two groups according to infusing different crystalloid solutions: lactated Ringer’s solution (L group), Plasma Lyte A (A group).So the patients were divided into D-L group,D-A group,N-Lgroup,N-A group.The blood glucose concentration,the blood lactate concentration and artery blood gas analysis before operation (T0) and at the end of operation(T1)were measured . Results The blood glucose concentrations had significant increase at the end of operations,and the blood glucose concentrations of D group were higher than that of N group at T0 and T1.The lactate concentrations before operation were normal in all the patients, but the lactate concentrations were over the normal limits after infusing lactated Ringer’s solution and remained normal after infusing Plasma Lyte A.The lactate concentrations had significant increase in the other three groups except N-A group. Conclusion Plasma Lyte A is the more safe and efficient crystalloid solution for diabetic patients during the operation.
8.A Transfusion-Associated GVHD
Chinese Journal of Blood Transfusion 1988;0(04):-
A case of the 12-year-old female patient with first relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia was reported. During the induction chemotherapy, the patient, transfused with whole blood and granulocytes, developed diarrhea and generalized macular rash. The skin biopsy showed some changes compatible with graft versushost disease (GVHD). Therefore, the related literature was reviewed, and the clinical features of transfusionassociated GVHD and the measures for its prevention and treatment were succinctly introduced.
9.Magnetic resonance diffusion weighted imaging in the diagnosis of cerebral infarction
China Medical Equipment 2014;(10):89-91
Magnetic resonance imaging has developed from a single observation of organisms’ anatomy and the change of morphology under the physiological and pathological conditions to the study of biology function and activity mechanism. Furthermore, it has entered into the molecular imaging and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and diffusion-weighed imaging (DWI) is one of them, which is mainly used in the early diagnosis of cerebral infraction. This article elaborates diffusion-weighed imaging,the identification of acute and non-acute cerebral infarction by DWI in physiological basis of pathogenesis and the time vale of DWI examination. The author holds the opinion that it is of great significance to distinguish between acute and non-acute cerebral infarction by using DWI and that clinicians may adopt targeted therapies according to the different periods of cerebral infarction in order to avoid unsafe and unnecessarily risky treatments.
10.Optimization of CT scanning technology
China Medical Equipment 2015;(2):72-75
Due to the advance of CT equipment, combined with the current intensifying doctor-patient conflict, the indication of CT examination is relaxed, even expanded to the examination of benign lesions, which contributes to the blind diagnosis using CT or the so-called“Casting a big net”. However, X-rays bring two kinds of risks. One of them is the risk of the accumulated X-rays, the other one is the missed diagnosis resulting from the poor image quality, which is caused by the low amount of radiation. Therefore, how to strike a balance between these two not only becomes the focus of academic circles, but sparks the whole society’s attention. This article elaborates X-rays hazards, CT radiation does, application of Multiple Detector Spiral CT, purpose and principles of radiological protection and optimization of CT scanning technology. The author believes “exposure does individualization” can be achieved under the principle of ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable), or we can even minimize the exposure does according to the requirements of diagnosis and accept the image with appropriate noise.
