Background:Rectal cancer is a common malignant tumor of alimentary tract.It has been demonstrated that oxaliplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy is effective for rectal cancer,however,its mechanism is not fully clarified.Aims:To explore the effect of neoadjuvant chemnotherapy with FOLFOX4 (folinic acid,fluorouracil,and oxaliplatin) on expressions of Ki-67,a proliferating cell-associated nuclear antigen,matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2),and Fas,a death receptor in cancerous tissue of patients with rectal cancer.Methods:A total of 104 cases of patients with histologically proven rectal cancer from Aug.2014 to Feb.2016 at Central Hospital of China National Petroleum Corporation were enrolled prospectively and randomly allocated into treatment group (n =58) and control group (n =46).Patients in treatment group finished 6 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with FOLFOX4 before surgery,and those in control group underwent surgery directly.Expressions of Ki-67,MMP-2 and Fas protein in cancerous tissue of surgical specimens were determined immunohistochemically.Results:Immunoreactivity of Ki-67 mainly located in the nucleus of rectal cancer cells,and those of MMP-2 and Fas mainly located in the cytoplasm.Expression rates of Ki-67 and MMP-2 were significantly lower in treatment group than in control group (41.4% vs.80.4%,P < 0.05;36.2% vs.73.9%,P < 0.05),while those of Fas was significantly higher in treatment group than in control group (62.1% vs.32.6%,P < 0.05).Conclusions:The therapeutic effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with FOLFOX4 on rectal cancer might be associated with the inhibition of proliferative,invasive and metastatic capacities and induction of apoptosis in cancer cells.

Objective:To summarize the institutional experiences of treating vascular complications caused by donor-derived infection(DDI)after kidney transplantation(KT).Methods:From January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2020, clinical data were retrospectively reviewed for 6 cases of vascular complications caused by DDI.Age, gender, surgical approaches, immunity induction therapy, immune suppression therapy, infection prevention, onset time of complication, type of complications, infection pathogens, therapeutic protocols and prognoses were summarized.Results:Six patients developed vascular complications caused by DDI in 997 KT recipients with an overall morbidity rate of 0.6%.In 3 cases, carbapenem resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae were positive in culture of secretion and blood samples.And Candida albicans was detected by blood cultures and pathological examinations.One case of antibiotic resistant Staphylococcus aureus was detected by blood culture.Among 3 cases of transplant kidney artery pseudoaneurysm on interventional therapy, there were curing(1 case)and immediate recurrent infection(2 cases). The latter two eventually died by cardiac complications.In 2 cases of arterial hemorrhage, graft nephrectomy was followed by hemodialysis.One case of transplanted renal artery stenosis was successfully cured by artery stenting and survived with normal graft function so far.Conclusions:Interventional endovascular therapy and open surgery are indicated for vascular complications caused by DDI post-KT.Interventional therapy may boost the odds of rescuing transplant kidney.However, clinicians should watch out for the risk of recurrent infection.Open surgery is an effective tool of eliminating infected focus.Preserving transplant kidney or nephrectomy may be adopted on the basis of specific conditions.

OBJECTIVE To explore the construction of selection system for drug directory of the county-level medical community based on multi-criteria decision analysis, and provide decision-making basis for the selection of drug directory of medical community. METHODS Taking county-level medical community in Chongqing as an example,Delphi method and analytic hierarchy process were employed to construct the selection system for drug directory of the county-level medical community. Selected drugs were quantitatively scored based on the constructed index system, and the drug directory was selected according to the drug’s comprehensive score. The implementation effect of the directory was then evaluated through questionnaire surveys one year after the implementation of the directory. RESULTS The expert authority coefficients of the two rounds of consultation were> 0.8, with Kendall’s W values of 0.213 and 0.196, respectively (P<0.001). Finally, the selection system for drug directory of the medical community was determined to include five evaluation dimensions: safety, effectiveness, economy, accessibility, and innovation, along with eight evaluation indicators. In the drug directory selected according to the above method, the proportions of centrally procured drugs, medical insurance drugs, and essential drugs had all increased compared to before the selection; the comprehensive scores of chemical drugs ranged from 50.25 to 96.31 scores, and the proportion of drugs scoring between 70 and 100 scores had increased from 78.06% before selection to 85.82%. Among them, antiparasitic drugs had the highest comprehensive scores, while drugs for the digestive tract and metabolism were the most numerous. The evaluation scores of each indicator and the comprehensive scores of drugs in the drug directory after the selection process increased significantly than before selection (P< 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The selection system for drug directory of the county-level medical community constructed in this study is scientific, objective and operable. This process facilitates the promotion of standardized and unified management of drugs in the medical community.
