Cancer Research and Clinic 2011;23(7):453-455
Objective To study the influence of aging and chemotherapeutic drugs of breast cancer patients on chemotherapy-induced amenorrhea (CIA) and to guide the further selection of drugs for chemotherapy.Methods We prospectively studied the CIA of the premenopausal breast cancer patients and compared the difference in CIA between the patients who were at different aging periods or received different chemotherapeutics. Results 137 patients were followed up.The occurrence rate of CIA and long-term chemotherapy-induced amenorrhea(LCIA)were 73.72%(101/137)and 43.80%(60/137)respectively.The rate of CIA and LCIA was significandy higher in older women(>40 years)than young women(≤40 years,X2=25.32,18.42,P<0.05).The recovery rate of CIA in young women was 61.90%(13/21)which was significantly higher than the older women[35.00%(28/80);X2=4.99,P=0.025].The difference in the rate of LCIA was statistically significant between the older women (>40 years)who received different anthracyclinebased chemotherapy(X2=6.92,P=0.031).Conclusion Age is an important factor for the CIA.Chemotherapy has less influence on the menstruation of younger women(≤40) and most amenorrhea is reversible.For older women,the rate of LCIA is different in patients who receive imported epirubicin,domestic epirubicin or pirarubicin.
2.Research advances on chemotherapy-induced amenorrhea of breast cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(2):132-135
The majority of women diagnosed with early-stage breast-cancer have an excellent long-term prognosis, but many still suffer from worsened life quality and infertility caused by chemotherapy-induced amenorrhea(CIA). The risk of CIA varies by patient age, but is not significantly influenced by chemotherapeutic regimens. CIA will improve disease-free survival and overall survival for patients with hormonal receptor positive tumors. For low-risk patients and patients with the intention of maintaining fertility, proper treatments need to be chosen to preserve their reproductive function.
3.Surgical treatment of unilateral destroyed lung
International Journal of Surgery 2009;36(8):562-565
Destroyed lung has resulted in the pathological changes of irreversible lung damage. The variety of reasons cause lobes of lung or the side of the whole lung loss of function and volume decrease. To the side of lung damage for patients.,it is necessary to take the whole side of surgical resection of lung disease at the right time Not only it can quickly alleviate the respiratory symptoms, but also can significantly improve the patients quality of life. Even some benign disease can be cured to achieve the purpose. Because of the extensive fibrosis of lung tissue loss of the affected lung function. Patients have varying degrees of shortness of breath and recurrent cough, cough purulent sputum, hemoptysis. Because of the thickened parietal pleura,those result in the effect of bad medical treatment. Most need surgical treatment, but the surgery cause perioperative patient physiological condition of interference, Major trauma surgical procedures, much more bleeding, and many and serious postoperative complications, those require a higher surgical technique. The article summed up the whole lung damage lung surgical methods and progress were reviewed.

Objective To compare the effect of spinal anesthesia by using 0.75% ropivacaine or 0.5% bupivacaine in a simulated state of rocking naval vessels, in order to choose an optimal anesthetic agent in a rocking naval vessels at sea. Methods Eighty patients undergoing elective surgery of abdomen or lower limb were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=20). Namely, horizontal level with 0.75% ropivacaine control group (R1), horizontal level with 0.5% bupivacaine control group (B1), simulated rocking with 0.75% ropivacaine group (R2), simulated rocking with 0.5% bupivacaine group (B2). The effect of anesthesia, the changes in hemodynamics and the incidence of relevant side-effects were determined and compared among the four groups. Results The anesthetic level (analgesic level) of group B2 was 2.7 segments higher than that in group B1, and the durations for fixed level was longer than group B1 (P

Objective To define the correlation between nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cell radiosensitivity and gene mutation in the ATM/PI3K coding region. Methods The gene mutation in the ATM/PI3K region of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell lines which vary in radiosensitivity,was monitored by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT PCR) and fluorescence marked ddNTP cycle sequencing technique.Results No gene mutation was detected in the ATM/PI3K region of either CNE1 or CNE2.Conclusion Disparity in intrinsic radiosensitivity between different NPC cell lines depends on some other factors and mechanism without being related to ATM/PI3K mutations.

500?mol/L) of propofol was needed; In biological system near the range of anaesthetic concentration, propofol effectively scavenged oxygen free radical produced by respiratory burst of PMN. Conclusion: Propofol scavenging hydroxyl radical generated in biological and nonbiological system,may be one of the main mechanisms of its antioxidation,the intralipid component of Diprivan may affect its antioxidation.

Objective:To investigate the protective effects of nuclear factor ?B inhibition on liver graft reperfusion injury during transplantation.Methods:Orthotopic liver transplantation using modified cuff technique was established in rats,animals were divided according to the grafts cold storaged in 4℃ Ringer's lactated solution with(PDTC group)or without 0.1 mol/L PDTC(control group)for 6 h.During the early stage of reperfusion,DNA binding activities of NF ?B in liver grafts were analyzed by EMSA(electrophoretic mobility shift assay),mRNA level of TNF ? and ICAM 1 by RT PCR,and activities of ALT and LDH were also detected.Results:NF ?B in liver grafts was activated at early stage of reperfusion during transplantation; PDTC treated liver displayed lower activation of NF ?B 1 h after reperfusion,whereas no difference was shown between 2 groups 6 h after reperfusion.Up regulation of TNF ? and ICAM 1 transcription,high level of ALT and LDH activities were observed in both groups during reperfusion,whereas the transcriptional up regulation and the activities of ALT and LDH in PDTC group were reduced compared with those of control group( P

In order to understand the resistance against common antibiotics in clinic and macrolide antibiotic-resistant mechanism of Streptococcus pneumoniae (S.pneumoniae) isolates in Zhejiang area,both K-B slip method and E-test were applied to determine the sensitivity of 138 S.pneumoniae isolates to nine antibiotics,and the ermB and mefE genes in those isolates which associated with macrolide antibiotics-resistance closely were detected by PCR.Subsequently,correlation among ermB and mefE genes and the erythromycin resistance were analyzed.For these 138 S.pneumoniae isolates,93.5% (129/138) of the strains were resistant to erythromycin,but only 2.9%~4.3% strains were resistant to cefotaxim,cefuroxime,amoxicillin and levofloxacin.The positive rate of ermB gene in the isolates (91.3%,126/138) was significantly higher than that of mefE gene (33.3%,46/138) (P<0.05).Both of these two genes existed in 27.5 % (38/138) of the strains and all of the strains without ermB and mefE genes were sensitive to erythromycin.The erythromycin resistance rate (62.5%) of mefE gene positive strains was remarkably lower than that of the mefE&ermB gene positive strains (100%) and the ermB gene positive strains (97.7%) (P<0.05).All the data mentioned above demonstrated that erythromycin is not an appropriate antibiotic to treat the infectious diseases caused by S.pneumoniae.Moreover,ermB is the predominant erythromycin resistance gene in S.pneumoniae isolates and ermB gene could inspire stronger erythromycin resistance than mefE gene.

Objective To explore the effect of enalapril combined with folate acid on endothelial function and urine microalbumin(UMA) in patients with hypertension.Methods 120 patients with hypertension were randomly divided into two groups:control group (n =60) was given enalapril 10.0mg/d,observation group (n =60) received enalapril 10.0mg + folic acid 0.4mg/d.The total treatment period was 8 weeks.Blood pressure,plasma homocysteine (Hcy),flow mediated dilation (FMD) and UMA were examined.Results The efficacy of pressure releasinghad no significant difference between two groups.Hcy[(10.2 ± 5.8) μmol/L vs (16.6 ±-8.1) μmol/L,t =3.641],FMD[(14.8 ±5.4)% vs (8.2±3.5)%,t =7.325] and UMA[(14.8 ±5.4)mg/L vs (31.6 ±9.5)mg/L,t =8.221] of two groups were significantly different after treatment.Conclusion Combination therapy of enalapril and folate acid can decrease plasma Hey and UMA,restore vascular endothelium function in patients with hypertension.
