Objective To evaluate the association of prognostic factors and the interval between surgery and radiotherapy in postoperative radiotherapy for non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods Between December 1982 and December 1992, 132 patients with NSCLC were retrospectively analyzed. The time interval between surgery and radiotherapy ranged from 12 to 90 days, with a median of 36 days. All patients received D T 40～72 Gy. Results Cox proportional analysis showed that stage, Karnofsky performance status, and the interval between treatments were important prognostic factors. Patients with a long interval of 37～90 days had a better survival than those with a short interval of 12～36 days (P

Objective To compare the efficacy of different antibiotics strategy,introperitoneal (IP) cefazolin plus third-generation cephalosporin versus IP Vancomycin plus thirdgeneration cephalosporin on peritoneal dialysis (PD)-related peritonitis.Methods All episodes of PD -associated peritonitis happened in prevalent PD patients between January 2008 and December 2012 were recruited from the PD Center of Peking University First Hospital.According to their empiric antibiotics scheme,episodes were divided into group A (where IP cefazolin plus third-generation cephalosporins were administrated) and group B (where IP Vancomycin plus third-generation cephalosporins were administrated).Multivariable logistic regression model was used to explore the influence of different emnpiric antibiotics scheme on peritonitis outcome.Results Patients in Group B had significantly lower level of serum albumin (33.5±6.0 vs 35.3±5.2 g/L) and cholesterol (4.6±1.3 vs 4.9± 1.1 mmol/L) than those in group A.In group A,the percentage of gram-positive bacteria was similar to group B (43.2％ vs 43.3％,P =0.96),but gram-negative bacteria was numerically lower (16.9％ vs 24.7％,P =0.08).Different empiric antibiotics strategy was not independent predictor of peritonitis outcome [OR =1.07,95％ CI(0.45,2.56),P=0.87].Conclusion Both cefazolin and vancomycin can be selected as first-line empiric antibiotic covering gram-positive organisms in the treatment of PD related peritonitis.

Objective To investigate the effects of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in severe cardiopaths with crisis. Methods Fourteen cases of severe eardiopaths with crisis were treated by ECMO with V A- ECMO technique, whose pump was centrifugal pump and whose tubes was spread byheparin. The cases included 8 fulminating myocarditis (FM) cases with ventricular arrhythmias or/and acute heart failure or/and cardiac shock and 6 acute myocardial infarction cases with pump failure or cardiac shock,in whom 10 cases with cardiorespiratory resuscitation. Haemodynamics and blood gas analysis, and so on were measured before and after treatment. Results The support time of ECMO was 3-106 h, mean (32.4±27.6) h. After ECMO mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDd), partial pressure of arterial oxygen, saturation of blood oxygen improved (P < 0.05 or < 0.01 ), negative value of base excess decreased significantly( P < 0.01 ). MAP had notchanged before and after stopping ECMO [ (80.02±10.20) wan Hg (1 mm Hg = 0.133 kPa) vs (76.34±9.15) mm Hg] (P > 0.05), however, LVEF and LVEDd improved continually (P <0.05). Conclusion ECMO can provide oxygen supply and stable circulation volume for severe cardiopaths with crisis to recover cardiorespiratory function or save valuable time to treat primary disease.

Objective To summarize and analyze the clinical feature,therapeutic mnethods and prognosis of colorectal small cell carcinoma.Methods From January 2000 to January 2012,15 patients of colorectal small cell carcinoma were analyzed retrospectively.Results There were 12 male cases,3 females.The age at diagnosis was between 39-71 years,with median age of 60.SCC located in the rectum in 12 cases,in the colon in 3 cases.The time from the onset of symptoms to final diagnosis was from 1 to 12 months.The diameter of tumors varied from 2.5 to 8.0 cm.13 cases received up-front surgery,including radical tumor resection in 6 cases,palliative resection in 7 cases,and neoadjuvant-chemotherapy followed by palliative resection in one case.The initial Ⅰ,Ⅲ B,Ⅳ B stage were 1 case,6 cases and 8 cases,respectively.The overall median survival time is 11 months,1,2 year's survival rate is 40.0％ and 20.0％,respectively.Conclusions Colorectal SCC is less common and the prognosis is poor.Multimodality management,with radical surgical resection of the primary lesion followed by standard adjuvantchemotherapy,affords good local disease control and a fair survival.

Objective To investigate the effect of sevoflurane on blood pressure in patients with different ages and the optimal concen-tration of sevoflurane. Methods 60 patients underwent selective LC operation with conventional induction and sevoflurane maintenance were divided into three groups:the youth group (34 patients), the middle age group (20 patients) and the older age group (6 patients). The SBP, DBP, MAP, CETsev, number of patients, age of patients before induction and 10 min(T1), 20 min(T2), 30 min (T3), 60 min (T4) after induction were recorded. Results Fluctuate of blood pressure were in the normal range after anesthesia maintenance, and MAP were fluctuated within the range of ± 20% before induction. The age under different CETsev were of no significant difference in each time point (P>0. 05). The age composition ratio in different CETsev were of no significant difference in each time point (P>0. 05). As the time of anesthesia extended, the number of patients under 0% ~1%CETsev decreased from 35 to 11; the number of patients under 1% ~2%CETsev increased from 10 to 20;and the number of patients under 2% ~3%CETsev maintened in 14 approximately. Conclusion The effect of sevoflurane on blood pressure of different ages is approximate. 2% ~3% CETsev is the most optimal concentration during the main-tenance of anesthesia.

Objective To study the clinical features of gallbladder small cell carcinoma (GSCC),to improve the diagnosis and treatment of GSCC.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of GSCC patients at our hospital from January 2000 to January 2012,and made a collective review of the literature.Results In this series,there were four female cases,one male case,the age at the first diagnosis was between 42-67,with the median age of 57.The main complain was pain and dis-comfort on the up and right abdomen.Tumor located in the bottom of gallbladder in 3 cases,and in the body in 2.Cholelithiasis was complicated in 4 cases.2 patients received radical resection of GSCC,followed by adjuvant chemotherapy of VP-16 and cisplatin,radioactive therapy in one.Postoperatively,these two were followed up for 45 and 32 mons with tumor free survival.3 cases received palliative resection,followed by adjuvant chemoradioactive therapy or intervention treatment,these three were followed up to 8,11,30 months respectively to their death for tumor recurrence.Conclusions GSCC is a rare disease,the initial symptoms are not often specific and easily misdiagnosed.The prognosis of GSCC is poor.

γ-glutamyltranspeptidase was detected from the cultured mycelia of Cordyceps sinensis (CSGT). Km and Vmax of CSGT was 2.54×10-4 mol/L and 0.1808 mol/L·min respectively when L-glutamic acid 5-(4-nitroanilide) (GpNA) and glycyglycine was used as its substrate. CSGT was stable from pH 8.0 to 11.0 and at or below 20℃. It was optimally active at pH 9.0～10.0 and 30℃. A series of reducing reagents could activate CSGT, and metal cations such as Zn2+, Cu2+, Hg2+ , Mn2+ inhibited strongly activity of the enzyme, but K+, Ca2+, Mg2+ and Na+ at high concentrations had no effect on its activity, indicating that its active center could contain -SH.
