Objective:To analyze the drug sensitivity of human lung adenocarcinoma stem cells (LASC) to cisplatin (DDP) and carboplatin (CBP). Methods:Human lung adenocarcinomaic cells SPC-A1,AG,and CPA-Y2 were treated with DDP and CBP. The cell viability of cells was detected by CCK-8 assay. The phenotypic characteristics of drug surviving cells(DSCs)were determined by immunofluorescence staining. The LASC population was then separated by magnetic-activated cell sorting method. The LASC in DSCs was traced by using green fluorescence protein (GFP). The drug sensitivity of DSCs to DDP and CBP was analyzed.Results:The LASC exhibited the phenotypes of bronchioalveolar stem cells (BASC, OCT4~+CCSP~+SP-C~+). After mixture of CD221~+LASC with CD221~-lung adenocarcinoma differentiated cells, the DSC population showed OCT4~+BASC phenotypes. These DSCs were significantly resistant to DDP and CBP.Conclusion:LASC has a high resistance to DDP and CBP. This may be the reason for tumor recurrence after chemotherapy.

Objective:To study the clinical application and complications of umbilical arterial catheterization (UAC) in premature infants.Methods:From January 2021 to December 2022, premature infants with UAC successfully inserted in NICU of our hospital were enrolled. According to birth weight (BW), the infants were assigned into three groups: <1 000 g, 1 000~1 499 g and ≥1 500 g. The perinatal data, UAC usage, UAC-related complications and risk factors of UAC-related complications were retrospectively analyzed.Results:A total of 39 premature infants received UAC, with gestational age 29.3(27.3, 30.4) weeks and BW 1 100 (900, 1 310) g. The insertion length (IL) of UAC was calculated using the average value of two formulas: a, IL (cm) =4×BW (kg) +7; and b, IL(cm) =3×BW (kg)+9. The accuracy of tube end position was determined using chest/abdomen radiography. 30(76.9%) cases had accurate position, 6(15.4%) had higher position and 3(7.7%) had lower position. The proportion of appropriately positioned tube end in <1 000 g, 1 000~1 499 g and ≥1 500 g groups were 80.0%, 76.5% and 71.4%, respectively, without statistically significant differences ( P>0.05) .No significant differences existed among the three groups in UAC duration and UAC routinely removal rate ( P>0.05). 9 cases (23.1%) of UAC were removed for specific reasons, including 4 cases of arterial spasm, 2 cases of withdrawal of treatment, 1 case of tube end displacement, 1 case of abdominal distension and 1 case of death. 21 cases received 1 U/ml heparin (0.9%NaCl solution) 0.5~1 ml/h arterial infusion. 23.8% (5/21) had hypernatremia and the level of sodium became normal after reducing the concentration of NaCl solution. Arterial vasospasm occurred in 4 patients with skin color changes of one side of the lower extremities. After UAC removal, the skin color returned to normal. Conclusions:UAC is helpful and safe for preterm infants, however, its complications should be alerted to.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate th e effects of comprehensive drug cost control in China ,and to provide reference for further improving the effects of cost control. METHODS Entropy method was used to establish a comprehensive evaluation index system of the comprehensive drug cost control effect from the respective of drug price control ability ,drug cost control ability and patient affordability. The comprehensively evaluate the effects of drug cost control in 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities)during 2016-2020. The k-means cluster method was used to analyze the effects of comprehensive drug cost control in various provinces. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS During the period of 2016-2020,the total score of comprehensive drug cost control effect of 31 provinces were 14.64,16.71,17.58,17.57,17.88,respectively. The results of cluster analysis were similar to the ranking of entropy method. Medical and health system reform policy had entered a stable period after achieving phased results ; the effects of comprehensive drug cost control was characterized by regional steps in 31 provinces;the effects of comprehensive drug cost control were better in developed coastal areas and some provinces and cities of western regions ,followed by provinces and cities in central China ;however,comprehensive drug cost control in 3 provinces of northeast China showed poor effect. The effects of comprehensive drug cost control in pilot cities of comprehensive medical reform were significantly improved. It is suggested that the successful experience of pilot cities of comprehensive medical reform should be promoted nationwide ,and policies such as volume-based drug procurement ,medical insurance drug price negotiation ,and diagnosis-related groups / diagnosis-intervention packet payment method reform should be further deepened.
