Objective To analyze the efficacy and safety of different chemotherapy regimens for treatment of progressive patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) brain metastasis after radiotherapy. Methods 96 SCLC brain metastasis patients with progressive intracranial lesions after radiotherapy were divided into four groups: carmustine group (Group A, 28 cases), temozolomide group (Group B, 19 cases), topotecan group (Group C, 24 cases) and no chemotherapy group (Group D, 25 cases). Results In terms of brain metastases, there were no complete response cases in the whole groups. The rates of partial remission (PR), stable disease (SD) and progression of disease (PD) in Group A were 17.8%(5/28), 53.6%(15/28) and 28.6 % (8/28), respectively, the response rate (RR) of intracranial lesions was 17.9 % (5/28), and disease control (CR+PR+SD) rate was 71.4%(20/28). The rates of PR, SD and PD in Group B were 15.8%(3/19), 63.2 % (12/19) and 21.1 % (4/19), respectively, the RR of intracranial lesions was 15.8 % (3/19), and disease control rate was 78.9 % (15/19). The rates of PR, SD and PD in Group D were 8.3 % (2/24), 54.2 %(13/24) and 37.5 % (9/24), respectively, the RR rate of intracranial lesions was 8.3 % (2/24), and disease control rate was 62.5 % (15/24). In Group D, there was no response case, and 20 patients with PD (80.0 %) were found. The median progression-free survivals (PFSs) were (3.64 ±0.43) months, (4.68 ±0.49) months,(3.58 ±0.50) months, (2.60 ±0.31) months in Group A, B, C and D, respectively, and the median overall survivals (OSs) were (18.80±1.74) months, (18.76±1.85) months, (19.10±1.64) months and (9.64±0.84) months, respectively. The median OS of Group A, B or C was longer than that of Group D (P=0.002). The differences of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳhematologic toxicities among the four subgroups were not statistically different. Patients in Group B had better tolerance to nausea and vomit. In Group D, the central nervous system symptoms such as fatigue and headache occurred frequently. Conclusions The response rate and OS of SCLC brain metastasis patients with progressive intracranial lesions after radiotherapy are improved after chemotherapy, however, PFS is not significantly prolonged. The efficacies of carmustine, temozolomide and topotecan are similar in short and long term, besides, temozolomide shows less adverse events and a higher disease control rate. The application of chemotherapy that could penetrate the blood-brain barrier can improve the efficacy on SCLC brain metastasis patients with progressive intracranial lesions after radiotherapy with well tolerance.

0.05). The main toxicity reactions were myelosuppression,gastrointestinal reactions,peripheral neurotoxicity and most of the patients can suffer that. CONCLUSION:Docetaxel combined with oxaliplatin and capecitabine have good effect on advanced gastric cancer and are less toxic. It can be the main treatment way to cure advanced gastric cancer.

Objective To observe the morphological characteristics of congenital optic disc pit with maculopathy, the natural de-velopment, and changes after laser photocoagulation. Design Retrospective case series. Participants Twelve cases with congenital optic disc pit. Methods Records of 12 patients with congenital optic disc pit with maculopathy were reviewed. Clinical examination includes optical coherence tomography (OCT), color fundus photography, and fluorescein angiography (FA). The data was analyzed with the exist-ing theory of pathogenesis of the disease. Main Outcome Measures Visual acuity and morphology of macupopathy. Results All the patients were noted to have serous maculopathy associated with optic disc pit. Serous detachment of neuro-retina was found in two pa-tients, schisis of neuro-retina in two patients, and both serous detachment and schisis of nearo-retina were observed in other patients. Two patients were associated with choroidal coloboma. Four patients were treated with laser photocoagulation, in which 3 patients had vision improved. Conclusions Schisis and detachment of neuro-retina are the important morphologic changes of congenital optic disc pit with maculopthy. Proper understanding of the relationship between the development of the disease and these changes will be helpful to study its pathogenesis. Patients may benefit in part from laser photocoagulation.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of retinal binding protein (RBP) and Cystatin C in blood and urine in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).Methods One hundred and twenty-one patients with CKD in Nephrology Laboratory of The People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from Aug.2012 to Jan.2013 were served as the case group.Sixty healthy check-up people were considered as control group.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect RBP and Cystatin C in urine,and the immune turbidimetry testing was applied to detect RBP and Cystatin C in blood.The receiveroperating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under curve (AUC) were applied to evaluate the sensibility and diagnostic value of indexes in CKD.Results The positive rate of RBP,Cystatin C in urine and blood were 89.6％,92.6％,52.5％,59.5％ respectively of 12 patients in case group,higher than those in control group (all value were 0,P ＜0.001).ROC curve showed that the sensitivity of urine RBP and Cystatin C were higher than that in blood of case group.AUC of RBP,Cystatin C level in urine and blood were 0.915,0.974,.655,and 0.623 respectively.And 95％ confidence interval were 0.877-0.954,0.956-0.992,0.575-0.736,0.543-0.702 respectively,and the differences are statistically significant (P ＜ 0.001).Conclusion The sensitivity of urine cystatin C and RBP are significantly higher than that in blood,which might be served as a diagnostic marker of CKD and can provide important basis for clinical diagnosis.

Objective To explore changes of brain function among patients with partial epilepsy in resting state by using the blood oxygenation level dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) techniques.Methods fMRI scanning was performed in resting state among 60 patients with partial epilepsy and 60 gender,age and educational levels matched normal controls.The functional connectivity analysis was applied to calculate the default mode network ( DMN ) functional connectivity in resting-state fMRI.SPM5 was used to analyze differences in functional connectivity between the two groups( P ＜0.001,cluster ＞50).Results Left precuneus and adjacent posterior cingulate cortex ( Pcu/PCC),angular gyrus,and cingulate gyrus were involved in the DMN of epileptic patients.By contrast,the DMN of controls included left Pcu/PCC,right angular gyrus,bilateral medial frontal lobe and temporal lobe.Compared with normal controls,patients with partial epilepsy showed a significantly decrease in functional connectivity of DMN region such as left inferior parietal lobule,supramarginal gyrus,parahippocampa gyrus and superior temporal gyrus,and bilateral uncus,while no regions were found increased functional connectivity in patients group.Conclusions Patients with partial epilepsy show abnormal changes in functional connectivity of DMN in resting state by fMR],which may associate with the potential pathophysiological mechanisms of epilepsy.The findings demonstrate that the resting-state fMRI might detect the extensive changes of brain function in partial epilepsy with negative results of conventional MRI,suggestive of fMRI as an effective and non-invasive method to explore brain function in epilepsy.

Objective: To explore the correlation of left descending anterior (LDA) myocardial bridge (MB) and atherosclerosis at proximal to a segment with MB in patients elderly than 60 years and to identify if LDAMB could become the independent risk factor of atherosclerotic stenosis at proximal to a segment with MB. Methods: A total of 986 patients with multi-slice spiral CT diagnosed coronary artery disease (CAD) were studied and 389 patients with 486 MB in left heart were found. General information as the age, gender, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and smoking conditions were collected, relationship between LDAMB and atherosclerotic stenosis at proximal to a segment with MB was studied by Logistic regression analysis. Results: There were 48/389 (12.3%) cases with MB at proximal segment of LDA, 254 (65.3%) cases with MB at middle segment of LDA, 51 (13.1%) cases with MB at distal segment of LDA, 19 (4.9%) cases with MB at the ifrst diagonal branch and 17 (4.4%) cases with MB at obtuse marginal branch respectively. Logistic regression analysis presented that age (OR=1.07, 95% CI 0.02-0.09,P<0.01), diabetes (OR=4.48, 95% CI 0.75-2.24,P<0.01) and MB at middle segment of LDA (OR=4.98, 95% CI 0.81-2.41, P<0.01) were related to atherosclerotic stenosis at proximal to a segment with MB; age (OR=1.08, 95% CI 0.04-0.12,P<0.01) and diabetes (OR=3.49, 95% CI 0.30-2.19,P=0.01) were related to the atherosclerosis at LAD middle segment; the MB at LAD middle segment was not related to atherosclerosis of middle and distal LAD segments,P>0.05. Conclusion: MB at middle segment of LDA was with the higher occurrence rate of atherosclerotic stenosis at proximal to a segment with MB in elderly patients, which could be used as an independence risk factor for clinical diagnosis.
