Decades researches of molecular oncology have found some moleculars which can promote tumor growth and help cancer surrive.This brings new hope for the treatment of tumors.Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is the first important molecular to inhibit tumor growth.Fifty percent triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) and inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) overexpress EGFR.EGFR and its downstream pathway can regulate epithelial-mesenchymal transition,promote tumor cell migration.EGFR therapy can improve the chemosensitivity of TNBC cells,apoptotic signal transduction occur.These studies suggest that the EGFR targeted therapy may have an important role in the treatment of TNBC and IBC.

Objective To discuss the clinical feature ,diagnosis and treatment of the occult cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea after tracheotomy in patients with severe traumatic brain injury .Methods The clinical data of 18 cases of the occult cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea after tracheotomy in patients with severe traumatic brain injury were retro -spectively analyzed .Results 15 cases showed involuntary swallowing movements ,frequent stimulus-likecough, abnormal increased secretions in the oral and nasal;3 cases performance of aspiration ,hypoxemia ,respiratory distress . After a three -dimensional thin skull CT , cisternography , nasal endoscopic examination can confirm the diagnosis . After the treatment with replacing the tracheostomy tube with a balloon ,continuous lumbar drainage ,endoscopic repair leak,the cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea were cured .Conclusion Patients with occult cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea performance the diversity and easily missed ,early detection and timely treatment can prevent cerebrospinal fluid rhi-norrhea delayed healing and intracranial infection and promote patient recovery .

Objective To investigate the effect of IFN-γ on the proliferation and migration of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma cell line Eca9706 and related mechanism. Methods Cells were cultured in vitro and treated with interferon-γ. Cell morphology changes were observed under microscope, cell proliferation ability was detected by CCK-8 experiment, and cell migration ability was detected by cell scratch experiment and Transwell experiment. Real-time PCR method was used to detect the expression efficiency of chemokine CXCL8 (interleukin 8), and the ELISA experiment was used to detect the change of CXCL8 secretion. Results Compared with the blank control group, Eca9706 cells treated with different concentrations of interferon-γ did not change significantly in cell morphology. CCK8 experiment confirmed that the proliferation ability of Eca9706 cells after IFN-γ treatment was significantly reduced (

Objective:To observe the effect of early mechanical ventilation on the expression of inflammatory factors and prognosis of patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI).Methods:From January 2017 to December 2020, 138 patients with sTBI admitted to the department of the emergency of Xinhua Hospital Chongming Branch were enrolled. Although some patients were admitted to hospital without acute respiratory failure, their Glasgow coma score (GCS) were less than 8, they bad risk of hypoxia, so early mechanical ventilation was required. According to the patient's condition and the willingness of family members, patients were divided into mechanical ventilation group (tracheal intubation mechanical ventilation) and conventional oxygen inhalation group (nasal catheter or mask oxygen inhalation) in the end. The arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO 2), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2), oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin (IL-6, IL-10) levels at admission, preoperation and 72 hours postoperation, as well as GCS before operation and 1 week after operation, the duration and number of patients successfully evacuated from the ventilator within 1 week after surgery were observed and analyzed. Results:A total of 138 sTBI patients were enrolled in the study, including 72 cases in the mechanical ventilation group and 66 cases in the routine oxygen inhalation group. In the two groups, PaO 2, PaO 2/FiO 2 and IL-10 were higher, and PaCO 2, TNF-αand IL-6 were lower at 72 hours post operation than that before operation. Moreover, the changes in the mechanical ventilation group were more significant than those in the conventional oxygen inhalation group [PaO 2 (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 94.6±7.7 vs. 92.5±6.8, PaO 2/FiO 2 (mmHg): 351±94 vs. 319±89, IL-10 (ng/L): 8.2±2.7 vs. 7.4±1.8, PaCO 2 (mmHg): 35.6±1.8 vs. 37.5±2.7, TNF-α(ng/L): 71.5±6.3 vs. 96.8±15.5, IL-6 (ng/L): 10.8±3.9 vs. 14.4±6.5, all P < 0.05]. There were 17 patients with severe respiratory insufficiency or failure in the conventional oxygen inhalation group before operation. Compared with the conventional oxygen inhalation group, the GCS score (11.7±3.1 vs. 9.1±4.6) and the proportion of successful weaning [62.5% (45/72) vs. 44.0% (29/66)] were significantly higher, and the duration of successful weaning (hours: 63.5±28.6 vs. 88.1±33.9) was significantly shorter in the mechanical ventilation group 1 week after operation. Conclusion:Early mechanical ventilation in sTBI patients can significantly improve oxygen supply, inhibit the release of pro-inflammatory factors, reduce secondary brain damage, and effectively improve the prognosis.
