Traditional treatments for malignant tumor are far from meeting the clinical demands.Recently,research on anti-tumor targeted drugs has made a significant breakthrough,which brings new hope for the treatment of malignant tumor.Anti-tumor targe-ted drugs can specifically target malignant tumor and directly in-hibit the growth of tumor cells,showing no toxicity to the normal tissues and organs.Herein we reviewed the research progress of small molecular targeted drugs and antibody targeting new drugs.

ObjectiveTo explore the prognostic value of pretreated maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) using 18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with computed tomography (18FDG PET/CT) in locally-advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) treated by intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT).MethodsOne hundred and forty previously untreated stage Ⅲ - Ⅳb ( UICC/AJCC 6th) patients with biopsy-proven nasopharyngeal carcinoma were examined.All of the enrolled patients accepted whole body/head-neck 18FDG PET/CT before radical IMRT. 18FDG uptakes were recorded as SUVmax of primary tumor (SUVmax-P) and SUVmax of cervical lymph nodes (SUVmax-N).The relationships between SUVmax and long-term clinical outcomes were analyzed.ResultsThe median SUVmax-P was 10.4,and the median SUVmax-N was 6.2.The SUVmax-P was weakly correlated with T-stage ( R =0.279,P =0.001 ).The SUVmax-N was weakly correlated with N stage ( R =0.334,P =0.000 ).There were no difference of the median SUVmax-P (9.2 vs.10.4,U =560.50,P =0.805 ) and the median SUVmax-N (4.0vs.5.0,U =576.00,P =0.908) between patients with and without local recurrence.The median SUVmax-P of patients with distant metastasis was significantly higher than those without metastasis (11.9 vs.9.8,U =987.50,P =0.014).The SUV of 10.2 was taken as a cut-off for high and low uptake tumors.For patients with SUVmax-P > 10.2,the 5-year distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) and 5-year overall survival (OS)were significantly higher than those with SUVmax-P ≤ 10.2 (69.1% vs.95.5%,x2 =15.88,P =0.000;68.4% vs.94.0%,x2 =15.56,P =0.000,respectively).Multivariate analysis showed that SUVmax-P was the only independent risk factor of 5-year DMFS and OS ( HR =7.87,P =0.001 and HR =5.14,P =0.003). Conclusion SUVmax-P is a useful biomarker predicting long-term clinical outcomes in newly diagnosed locally-advanced NPC patients.

Objective To explore the association of sedentary life style with risk of metabolic syndrome (MS) and diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM).Methods A total of 6 016 local residents aged 18 years or older in Fujian province were recruited by multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method in 2010-2011.Data,including demographic information,physical activity and sedentary time were collected.Indices related to height,weight,waist circumference,blood pressure and blood lipid were determined while MS and T2DM were diagnosed by IDF (2005) and WHO (1999) criteria.Logistic regression was used to estimate the correlations between sedentary behavior and MS or T2DM.Results The prevalence rates of MS and T2DM were 19.0% and 8.0% respectively,in local residents aged 18 years or older,in Fujian province.The overall rate of sedentary behavior was 18.1%,with the mean sedentary time as 4.3 hours.Both data showed significantly differences (P<0.001) among control group,MS without T2DM group,MS with T2DM group and T2DM without MS group.Compared with the group of sedentary time <2.0 h/d,1) the group with 2.0-3.5 h/d was significantly correlated with MT group (OR=1.44,95% CI:1.03-2.03,P<0.05),2) groups of 3.5-6.0 h/d and ≥6.0 h/d were significantly correlated with M,T,MT group,respectively (OR:1.49-1.76 and 1.28-1.58 respectively,95% CI:1.19-2.45 and 1.02-2.23 respectively,P< 0.05),and 3) sedentary behavior was independently associated with an increased risk of MT group (OR=1.82,95% CI:1.33-2.48,P<0.01) and M group (OR=1.43,95%CI:1.14-1.78,P<0.01),after the adjustment for factors as age,sex,cigarette smoking,alcohol drinking,BMI,education,occupation,sedentary behavior/sedentary time.Conclusion MS and T2DM were associated with sedentary lifestyle,but these findings should be confirmed through further longitudinal studies.

Objective:
To explore the characteristics and influencing factors of unintentional burns among left-behind children in rural areas of northern Guizhou, from the perspective of parents and children, to formulate strategies to prevent children from burns.
Methods:
A total of 508 left-behind children were recruited by using a multistage cluster sampling method, and 196 left-behind children’s families were also investigated with a self-designed questionnaire.The relative factors of burns were analyzed by unconditional logistic regression and multiple regression analysis.
Results:
The report rate of burns among left-behind children was 12.20%(62/508). Left-behind girls were a risk factor for burns(OR=1.81). The time of employment >5 years and the higher of the score of burn-related knowledge were the protective factors(OR=0.23, 0.38)(P<0.05). Only 64.80% of left-behind children’s main guardians had a burns-related knowledge score of 60 or more. The age of their main guardian, the number of minor children, and whether understand of unintentional injury were the influencing factors of burns score.
Conclusion
The report rate of burns among left-behind children in rural areas in northern Guizhou is still high; parents/guardians have a low cognition level of burns. The knowledge of burns should be strengthened and left-behind children should be cared to reduce the incidence of burns.
