1.Effectiveness and safety of live attenuated influenza vaccine in children of 2 to 17 years old
International Journal of Pediatrics 2015;42(1):90-93
Live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) is a Live attenuated influenza vaccine.LAIV has demonstrated significantly greater protection against influenza in healthy children or children with a history of respiratory diseases or with immunodeficiency diseases 2 to17 years of age as compared with TIV.LAIV can prevent influenza more efficient without increasing hospitalization and emergency department visits as compared with TIV.Except for the runny nose and nasal congestion,no excess risk of adverse events have been found among children who were vaccinated with LAIV compared with those vaccinated with TIV.LAIV has the potential in children to stimulate greater local anti-influenza immune responses and its protective effect can extend beyond the year of administration.Vaccining LAIV is convenient and noninvasive for children,it is easily accepted by children and their parents.LAIV offers a effective approach to prevent influenza.
2.Current situation and thinking of the prognostic gene markers' in early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer
Cancer Research and Clinic 2010;22(9):577-580
Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with the same TNM stage may suffer from large prognosis variations. Even patients with early-stage NSCLC still demonstrated lower-than-expecting survival rates after surgical resection, indicating that the current staging methods which were based on anatomy do not adequately predict outcome. Especially the insufficient growth of very early period tumors limited the prognostic prediction of anatomy characteristics, therefore studies focusing on tumor biologic characteristics were developed in order to identify prognostic gene markers. A variety of prognostic genomic models were based on microarray analysis and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and analyzed by bioinformatics data processing. However, the prognostic gene lists reported to date overlapped poorly in the studies with similar background. To improve the cloudy situation, the research protocol should be standardized.On the other hand, instead of simple addition of several genes, sequential combination of prognostic gene markers based on signal pathway should be developed which may possess much more rationality and systematicness.

0.05).However,There were significantly positive correlation between MMP-9 level and abnormal volume on mean transit time map(r=0.371,P=0.026),time to peak map(r=0.379,P=0.023),cerebral blood flow map(r=0.447,P=0.006) and great vessel occlution(r=0.416,P=0.004) on magnetic resonance.Conclusions The serum MMP-9 level of acute cerebral infarction are significantly positively correlated with the change of magnetic resonance,but there are no correlation between MMP-2 and MMP-13 levels and the change of magnetic resonance.It suggests that the MMP-9 may be involved in the pathology of acute cerebral ischemia.

Objective To investigate prognosis of acute ischemic patients with internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery occlusion and define predictors of clinical outcome.MethodsThe clinical and radiological data of 48 stroke patients who underwent magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) within 6 hours of symptom onset and visualized internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery occlusion on early MRA were analyzed. 90 days after onset, modified Ranking Scale (mRS) scores were obtained and factors related with prognosis were defined by logistic regression analysis.ResultsOf 48 patients, 17 cases (35.4%) got good clinical outcome (mRS 0~2), 31 cases (64.6%) got poor clinical outcome (mRS 3~6) with 7 cases (14.6%) died. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, only large infarction ( OR=21.1, 95%CI 1.4~314.2, P=0.027) and hyperglycaemia ( OR=5.1, 95%CI 1.3~19.8, P=0.019) were independent predictors of poor outcome.ConclusionClinical outcomes of most acute stroke patients with internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery occlusion are poor. Large infarction and hyperglycaemia are independent predictors of clinical outcome.
