Objective To investigate the better radiation modalities for single and multiple brain metastases.Methods Between July 2005 and July 2008,50 patients with single or multiple brain metastases were retrospectively analyzed.The primary cancer of all patients were controlled.Thirty patients with whole brain radiotherapy and stereotactic radiosurgery were included in the combination group,and 20 patients with stereotactic radiosurgery were included in another group.Stereotactic radiosurgery prescription doses of 45％-75％ isodose line were used to wrap around the planning target,which was 15-20 Gy in edge and 30-45 Gy in center.Stereotactic radiosurgery was performed once.Whole brain radiotherapy total dose was 40 Gy,which was given to patients by 2 Gy in 1 fraction,1 fraction every day,5 times every week.Results The efficient rate of combination group was 90％ (27/30),and single group was 60％ (12/20).It was obviously higher in combination group (x2 =6.294,P =0.012).For combination group,the 1-year survival rate was 50％ (15/30) and the 2-year survival rate was 30％ (9/30).However,for another group,the 1-year survival rate was 35％ (7/20) and the 2-year survival rate was 15％ (3/20).The survival rates of two groups were no difference (x2 =1.096,P =0.295 ; x2 =1.480,P =0.224).There were no patients survived more than 3 years in both groups.Stratified analyses showed that the l-year survival rates of the patients with single brain metastasis were no difference in two groups (100.0％ vs 66.7％,x2 =1.556,P =0.212).Whereas the 1-year survival rate in combination group of the patients with multiple brain metastases was higher than that in single group (42.3％ vs 29.4％,x2 =11.023,P =0.001).There were no statistically significant differences in 2-year survival rates in both groups with single and multiple brain metastases (75.0％ vs 66.7％,x2 =1.200,P =0.273 ; 23.1％ vs 5.9％,x2 =3.782,P =0.052).Conclusion Whole brain radiotherapy and stereotactic radiosurgery are important treatment modalities for single or multiple brain metastases.The optimal treatment modality for single brain metastasis is stereotactic radiosurgery,while it is a good choice to make whole brain radiotherapy and stereotactic radiosurgery for multiple brain metastases.

Objective To observe the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with conserving-breast surgery in treatment of patients with stage Ⅱ,Ⅲ breast cancer.Methods 85 patients with stage Ⅱ,Ⅲ breast cancer were selected,42 patients in breast-conserving group and 43 patients in modified radical group.Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was used in breast-conserving,while was not used in modified radical group.Efficacy and follow-up results were observed in the two groups.Results After treatment,the CR and PR in the breast-conserving group was 30 cases and the effective rate was 71.4%,which of the modified radical group was 55.8% with 21 patients of CR and PR.After the comparative analysis,the difference was statistically significant(t=4.518,P=0.034).After followed for 12-36 months,the patients in the breast conserving group were all alive and one case of local recurrence.According to breast shape evaluation criteria,34 patients were excellent,accounting for 80.9%;good for the five cases,accounting for 11.9%;bad of two cases,accounting for 4.8% and the excellent rate was 92.9%.According to the patients' own judgment on the breast shape,37 cases were very satisfied,accounting for 88.1%;basic satisfaction for three cases,accounting for 7.1%;dissatisfied 2 cases,accounting for 4.8% and the satisfaction rate was 95.2%.Conclusion Patients with breast cancer of Ⅱ,Ⅲ period before breast-conserving surgery taking chemotherapy can reduce the clinical stage while the postoperative efficacy and breast appearance are good with important clinical value.

Objective To evaluate the effect of slow-release microcapsules of HCF( hepatocyte growth factor) on angiogenesis in infracted myocardium.Method Myocardial infarction was induced in 30 New Zealand rabbits by ligating the middle of left descending coronary artery. Group Ⅰ ( n = 10) was served as a control group, group Ⅱ ( n =10) as a blank microcapsule group, group Ⅲ ( n = 10) as experimental group with each microcapsule contains 1 μgHGF as HCF group. In group Ⅱ andⅢ, 5 blank microcapsules or FGF slow-release microcapsules were implanted into myocardium under epicedium between the left descending coronary artery and left circumflex branch. The heart function of each rabbit was evaluated with echocar-diography and cheterization, angiogenesis was evaluated by immunohistochemical technique 6 weeks later.Result As compared with group Ⅰ and Ⅱ , rabbits treated with HGF had higher microvessel counts ( P < 0. 01), and LVFS and EF were significantly increased [ (101. 28±19. 50,105. 28 ±18. 28,161. 28 ±15. 85, P <0.01 ]. Conclusion Subepicardial implantation of HGF slow release microcapsule in the infracted rabbit model can enhance effective angiogenesis and improve left ventricular function.

Objective:To observe the effect of emotional stimulation on the formation process of atherosclerosis ( AS) ,and explain the role of hydrogen sulfide ( H2 S) in atherosclerotic lesions. Methods:Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into AS group, qi-stagnation and blood-stasis AS group and the control group. The AS group was fed with special diets, the qi-stagnation and blood-stasis AS group was fed with special diets and emotional stimulation, and the control group was fed with normal diets. During the experiment, the indicators including the characterization score, H2 S content, four items of the natural bleeding and blood coagula-tion, tissue blood flow and blood lipid were respectively detected in the 4 th, 8 th and 12 th week. Results:Compared with those in the AS group, since the 4 th week, the rats in qi-stagnation and blood-stasis AS group were with significantly decreased activity, slow re-sponse, lackluster fur and dark purple tongue (P<0. 01);the level of plasma lipid increased significantly, and increased further with time extension(P<0. 05 or P<0. 01);since the 8 th week, APTT and FIB changed significantly (P<0. 05),the blood flow to skin, liver and kidney decreased significantly (P<0. 05);the content of H2S was significantly higher in the 12 th week (P<0. 01). Con-clusion:Emotional stimulation promotes the formation of AS model,and the gas molecule system of H2 S plays a regulatory role in the qi-stagnation and blood-stasis AS animal model.

OBJECTIVE To determine the distribution of allergens in patients with allergic rhinitis in Wenzhou area. METHODS Patients with AR symptoms from January 2013 to December 2014 were given skin prick test (SPT). The clinical data about SPT was retrospectively colleceted to analyze SPT results. RESULTS 1. Among 2991 individuals, the total positive rate of SPT was 82.0%, with Dermatophagoides farinae (Der. f) and Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (Der.p) as the most common allergens; the positive rate of inhalant allergen was obviously higher than that of ingestive ones, with significantly statistical difference(χ2=2006.557,P<0.01). Most of patients were allergic to double allergens; the intensity of Der.f and Der.p mainly presented as (++++), with no significant difference(Z=-0.391, P=0.696). 2. There was significant difference of variation with seasons(χ2=34.254, P<0.01). 3. No significant difference of positive rate were observed in different AR-courses(χ2=16.102, P<0.01). 4. Significant difference of positive rate was found among different age-groups; The positive rate was increased along with growing age, got peak at group of 10-12 years old, and then got down after that. CONCLUSION Dust mite was the main allergen coursed AR in Wenzhou area. Seasons and age were two important factors effecting on positive of SPT and onset of AR. The positive rate of allergens was related to age.

Objective To explore the effect of 12-week simplified Tai Chi training on rehabilitation and neuromuscular control in individuals with chronic ankle instability(CAI).Methods Thirty-four partic-ipants with CAI were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group,each of 17.The control group received 12-week health education,while the experimental group underwent simpli-fied Tai Chi training for the same length.Before and after the intervention,both groups were evaluat-ed their self-reported instability feeling,ankle muscle strength,proprioception and dynamic postural stability.Results After intervention,a significant increase was observed in the average Cumberland An-kle Instability Tool(CAIT),the maximum extension distance in the posteromedial and posterolateral di-rections of the modified Star Excursion Balance Test(mSEBT)in,as well as the ankle peak torque in plantarflexion,inversion and eversion(P<0.05)in the experimental.Moreover,the ankle passive motion proprioceptive threshold in plantarflexion and inversion decreased significantly in the experimental group after intervention(P<0.05).Meanwhile,after intervention,the average CAIT score,maximum ex-tension distances in the posteromedial and posterolateral directions in the mSEBT,and the ankle peak torques in plantarflexion,inversion and eversion of the experimental group were significantly higher than the control group(P<0.05),while the ankle passive motion proprioceptive threshold in plantarflex-ion was significantly lower than the latter(P<0.05).Conclusion Twelve-week simplified Tai Chi train-ing can improve the clinical subjective instability of CAI participants,maybe related to the improve-ment of ankle muscle strength,proprioception and dynamic postural stability.Therefore,it is suggest-ed that simplified Tai Chi should be one of the rehabilitation methods for CAI patients.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for nonunion after surgery for femoral shaft fractures in order to reduce them.Methods:The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed of the 804 patients with femoral shaft fracture who had been treated from January 2014 to December 2020 at Department of Orthopaedics, Xijing Hospital. There were 575 males and 229 females, aged from 18 to 96 years (average, 43.7 years). The patients were divided into 2 groups according to whether nonunion had occurred after surgery: a nonunion group of 112 cases and a fracture healing group of 692 cases. The preoperative general data, such as age, gender and fracture type, as well as intraoperative and postoperative data, such as operation time, internal fixation method, reduction method and internal fixation failure, were compared between the 2 groups. Items with P<0.05 were included in the multivariate logistic regression analysis to identify the risk factors for nonunion. Results:There were statistically significant differences between the nonunion group and the fracture healing group in smoking history, drinking history, injury mechanism, injury type, multiple injuries, fracture AO classification, fixation method, internal fixation failure, postoperative infection and use of non-steroid anti-inflammtory drugs ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that smoking ( OR=3.261, 95% CI: 2.072 to 5.133, P<0.001), high energy injury ( OR=2.010, 95% CI: 1.085 to 3.722, P=0.026), multiple injuries ( OR=3.354, 95% CI: 1.985 to 5.669, P<0.001), AO type 32-C fracture (type 32-C fracture used as a reference, P=0.034), internal fixation failure ( OR=3.517, 95% CI: 1.806 to 6.849, P<0.001), external stent fixation (external stent fixation used as a reference, P=0.009) were the risk factors for nonunion after femoral shaft fractures. Conclusions:After surgery for patients with femoral shaft fracture, special attention should be paid to those with a smoking habit, high-energy injury, multiple injuries, AO type 32-C fracture, external stent fixation or a failed internal fixation, because they are high-risk groups prone to postoperative nonunion.

Because of the limited effect of traditional treatment methods such as surgical treatment, radiotherapy and chemotherapy,the emergence of immunotherapy has brought new hope for the treatment of patients with bladder cancer. As an immune checkpoint inhibitor, programmed death receptor 1/programmed death receptor-ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitor has shown good anti-tumor activity and safety in the treatment of advanced bladder cancer, and has been recommended for advanced bladder cancer as second-line treatment by NCCN guidelines. PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor for the treatment of bladder cancer has covered the first-line and second-line treatment, as well as maintenance therapy after first-line chemotherapy of locally advanced or metastatic bladder cancer, adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapy of muscle-invasive bladder cancer, treatment of high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer failed by Bacille Calmette-Guérin vaccine perfusion, and bladder preservation therapy of muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Some of related studies have achieved certain results, and some are in progress, both of which need to be further examined. Maybe it can provide new guidance and ideas for clinical treatment of bladder cancer.
