2.The treatment of ductal carcinoma in situ
Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2017;40(4):376-378
Ductal carcinoma in situ belongs to the early stage of breast cancer.The treatment of ductal carcinoma in situ is similar with that of the breast cancer.Because of the low mortality rate in patients with ductal carcinoma in situ,there was an excessive treatment in the treatment of ductal carcinoma in situ.So the key to the treatment of ductal carcinoma in situ was to improve the quality of life.The present study shows that the effect of conserving surgery with radiotherapy is same with mastectomy's in the treatment of breast ductal carcinoma in situ.Sentinel lymph node biopsy can also be used to evaluate the patient's axillary status.For patients with ductal carcinoma in situ with breast conserving surgery,radiotherapy and endocrine therapy can reduce the recurrence rate of ipsilateral breast cancer.Radiotherapy and endocrine therapy have also become the standard treatment for ductal carcinoma in situ.

Journal of Chinese Physician 2021;23(2):223-226
Objective:This study aimed to investigate the role of mitochondrial fusion protein 2 (Mfn2) in chronic renal injury caused by cyclosporine A (CSA) and the possible mechanism.Methods:The model of chronic CSA nephropathy was established in rats. The rats were divided into solvent control group, CSA model group and normal control group. Serum creatinine and urinary protein levels were detected. The tubulointerstitial injury was observed by light microscopy. The changes of mitochondrial structure were observed by electron microscope, and the expression of Mfn2 was detected by Western blot.Results:The levels of serum creatinine and urinary protein in CSA model group at 2 and 4 weeks were significantly higher than those in control group and solvent group ( P<0.05). In CSA model group, tubulointerstitial injury was obvious, mitochondria swelling and deformation were found in tubular epithelial cells, and ridge disappeared. Compared with normal control group and solvent control group, the expression of Mfn2 in CSA model group was significantly decreased at 2 and 4 weeks ( P<0.05), and the expression of Mfn2 in CSA model group at 4 weeks was further decreased compared with 2 weeks ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Mfn2 may play an important role in the injury of tubular epithelial cells caused by cyclosporine.

Parkinson′s disease(PD),the second neurodegenerative disease in the world,is characterized by a combination of motor symptoms(rest tremor,bradykinesia,rigidity,postural instability,stooped posture and freezing of gait)and non-motor symp?toms(including psychiatric and cognitive disorders). The core neuropathological features of PD are the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and the deposition of iron and cytoplasmic protein aggregates(Lewy bodies)inside neurons. Currently,clinical treatment for PD is symptomatic and there is no effective treatment to restore neuronal degeneration. In the PD therapy ,medication re?mains dominant. Anti-PD drugs are mainly based on the critical signal pathways or some specific targets which play a key role in the pathogenesis of PD to relieve the symptoms of PD. Research and development in novel drugs to prevent or treat PD have been a crucial subject,and some novel candidates are under development. In this paper,we summarize and analyze the anti-PD drugs,and make a brief discussion about its pharmacological targets.

Objective To explore the therapeutic value of hemoperfusion combined with daytime high capacity hemofiltration in the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis.Methods The clinical data of 25 patients with severe acute pancreatitis treated by hemoperfusion combined with daytime high capacity hemofiltration(the observation group) were retrospectively analyzed,and compared with 30 severe acute pancreatitis patients without blood purification treatment(the control group).Results After the treatment,the biochemical indicator of the observation group was improved obviously compared with pre-treatment.Of the observation group,the hospital slaying time was shorter [(21.6±12.3) d vs(30.8±15.6) d],and the cure rate was higher(72% vs 40%),and the death rate was lower (16% vs 30%),compared with the control group(all P < 0.05),but the treatment costs had no difference between the two groups.Conclusion Patients with severe acute pancreatitis on the basis of conventional treatment should conduct as early as possible hemoperfusion combined with daytime high capacity hemofiltration,and it could improve the success rate of the rescue and shorthen the length of hospital stay,and its curative effect was accurate.
7. 125I seed implantation combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of non-small cell lung carcinoma
Tumor 2007;27(5):406-408
Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of 125I seed implantation combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) and its complications. Methods: Combined treatment group (n = 42) received CT-guided interstitial 125I seed implantation (PD = 8-10 Gy/h), and three days later they were given TAX + DDP intravenous chemotherapy. Control group (n = 46) only received TAX + DDP chemotherapy. The dosage was selected based on the same reference standard as the treatment group. The therapeutic efficacy was observed two months later. The life quality of patients was evaluated by using EORTC QLQ-C30 table. Results: Both the technical success rate and follow-up rate were all 100%. In combined treatment group 4 patients achieved complete response (CR, 9.5%), 14 patients had partial response (PR, 33.3%), 20 patients with stable disease (SD, 47.6%) and 4 patients with progressed disease (PD, 9.5%). The total response rate (CR + PR) was 42.9%. In control group 1 patient achieved complete response (2.2%), 8 patients had partial response (17.4%), 22 patients with stable disease (47.8%) and 15 patients with progressed disease (32.6%). The total response rate (CR + PR) was 19.6%. The total response rate of the treatment group was significantly higher than control group. Conclusion: 125I seed implantation is synergistic with chemotherapy which is beneficial in reducing tumor load in a short period and increased the short β2-MG term therapeutic efficacy for NSCLC.

Objective Little is known about the role of low oxygen concentration in the formation of the capsule of Cryptococ -cus neoformans .This study was to investigate the effect of hypoxic condition on the capsule size of Cryptococcus neoformans . Methods We cultured 39 Cryptococcus neoformans strains in liquid Sabouraud medium and then incubated them at the normoxic (21%) and hypoxic concentration (1%), respectively.After 72 hours of incubation, we observed the capsules formed at different ox-ygen conditions under the Olympus microscope and the measured their sizes using the Axiovision software . Results Of the total number of Cryptococcus neoformans strains , 30 showed larger capsules in the normoxic than in the hypoxic condition , 17 with statisti-cally significant differences in their diameters (P<0.05), while the other 9 strains exhibited just the opposite results , 4 with statisti-cally significant differences in their diameters ( P<0.05). Conclusion Hypoxia might inhibit the growth of the Cryptococcus neoformans capsule.However, further studies are needed on its correlation with the serum or gene types of the Cryptococcus neofor-mans strain.

This paper develops a portable,safe,convenient lifebuoy for single soldier. It is in shape"C" around wrist with quick and automatic gas-filled function for the single soldier to float in the sea when meeting an emergency. The lifebuoy is more convenient and of better permeability than the foamy life vest. The boxy lifebuoy is small,light,automatic gas filled and convenient to unfold. When opened,the lifebuoy is in shape "C",and is put up from the "gap" of C-shape. The filled lifebuoy is 18cm?18cm?90cm in volume and creates 11 kilogram buoyancy force when in water. Satisfactory marine training feedbacks were obtained for using the C-shape lifebuoy.
