1.Research progress on clinical factors for predicting radiation pneumonitis
Chinese Journal of Radiation Oncology 2021;30(3):305-310
Radiation pneumonitis (RP) is the most common adverse event of thoracic radiotherapy, which primarily occurs within the 3 months after the beginning of radiotherapy. RP can not only negatively affect the pulmonary function and quality of life of patients, but also limit the prescribed dose and the implementation of radiotherapy plan, lower the radiotherapy efficacy and even lead to death. Currently, multiple studies have been conducted to explore the predictive factors of RP. In this article, clinical predictive factors including dosimetric parameters, peripheral blood cells along with cytokines and pulmonary function parameters were classified and illustrated, aiming to provide valuable predictive indicators for clinical use and reduce the incidence of RP.
2.New progress in clinical research of SPECT quantitative techniques
Chinese Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging 2021;41(5):309-312
The traditional SPECT has been considered unable to quantitatively analyze due to the limitations of device performance and reconstructing algorithm. Because of the development of SPECT devices, the emergence of SPECT/CT, and the improvement of reconstructive algorithms, SPECT can be used for quantitative analysis like PET. The current quantitative SPECT researches focus on the usefulness of quantitative SPECT technology in clinical diagnosis and the guidance and evaluation of radionuclide therapy. This review summarizes the development of SPECT quantification, the current status of quantitative SPECT researches in clinical diagnosis and radionuclide therapy, as well as the limitations and advantages of SPECT quantification.
3.Prenatal management of multifetal pregnancies containing monochorionic fetuses
Chinese Journal of Perinatal Medicine 2021;24(4):245-248
Multifetal pregnancies with monochorionicity are more complicated, for which pregnancy monitoring and intrauterine intervention are of great importance. For dichorionic triamniotic triplets with MC twin, multifetal pregnancy reduction measures included cardiac injection of potassium chloride at 11 to 14 weeks of gestation for reduction to monochorionic singleton, and radiofrequency ablation after 16 weeks of gestation to preserve the dichorionic diamniotic twins. Moreover no significant difference was observed in the pregnancy outcomes between the two methods. Fetalscopic laser surgery can significantly improve the perinatal prognosis of multiple pregnancies complicated by twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome. Umbilical occlusion and transection can be used for the reduction of triplets containing monochorionic monoamniotic twins to avoid fetal death caused by entanglement of the umbilical cord. Cardiac injection of potassium chloride is appropriate for reducing the two fetuses in the same chorionic sac for trichorionic quadruamniotic pregnancy. Selective fetal reduction is applicable for MC triplets or quadruplets pregnancy, however, relevant studies are all with a small sample size, which requires full consultation and individualized treatment.

Chinese Journal of Digestive Endoscopy 2021;38(4):318-320
To investigate the clinical effect of pantoprazole combined with traditional Chinese medicine for gastroesophageal reflux. A total of 50 cases of gastroesophageal reflux selected from January 2019 to December 2019 in Aviation General Hospital were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group. The control group was given pantoprazole, and the observation group was given traditional Chinese medicine combined with pantoprazole. Both groups were treated for 28 days. The recovery of clinical symptoms, status of esophageal mucosa by endoscopy and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. The clinical symptoms and status of esophageal mucosa in both group were obviously improved. Efficiency of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group( P<0.05). No serious adverse reactions happened during treatment. Pantoprazole combined with traditional Chinese medicine has definite clinical effects in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux, which can improve the clinical symptoms and the recovery of esophageal mucosa of patients with high safety.
5.Clinical value and prospect of extracellular vesicle miRNAs as novel liquid biopsy molecular biomarkers of tumor
Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2021;44(3):250-254
Extracellular vesicles (EV) miRNAs are a class of small non-coding RNAs that are encapsulated in membrane-containing vesicles from a variety of cells, and which can mediate intercellular communication and transfer of functional molecules. EV miRNAs in circulation can be served as novel molecular markers for cancer diagnosis, monitoring and prognosis, and also the most promising liquid biomarkers for clinical translation and utility currently, while optimal research strategy is crucial for identifying valuable EV miRNAs in clinical study. Moreover, EV miRNAs have recently also been implicated in cancer progression as direct regulators of metabolic reprogramming, mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition, angiogenesis, anti-cancer immune response and drug resistance in the tumor microenvironment. Study on some key EV miRNAs involving in those processes may highlight their potential utility as liquid biopsies in early diagnosis, companion diagnosis, metastasis, therapeutic control, prognosis analysis as their therapeutic potential for patients with cancer.

In order to evaluate the diagnostic value of determing the serum strotium levelfor the drowning diagnosis,we carried out this study.The results of our expe-rirnental study are summarized as follows:(1).The blood Sr level determinationcould be used as a confirmatory test of drowning merely at the early stage(wi-thin 5 min)of drowning;(2).It could give some help for diagnosing the case ofdrowning submerged in water within 24 hours.It was showed that the durationof submersion has influence upon the postmortem blood Sr level.The blood Srlevel was measured in two submerged cases in medico-legal practice.One died ofdrowning and the another was postmortem sbmersion after electrocusion.It is inter-esting that the results of blood Sr determination of human being were more acc-urate than experimental animals.Therefore,we consider that the further studyabout this project is required.
10.A STUDY OF THE INTERACTION BETWEEN PERIPHERAL NERVES——RESEARCH ON MECHANISM OF PROPAGATED SENSATION ALONG THE CHANNELS
Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University(Medical Sciences) 1981;0(02):-
With regard to the nature of meridians, the authors have presented the hypothesis of dual reflex in 1977. This means that acupunture can invoke some effects not only through CNS (long reflex), but through the connection of peripheral nerve terminals to transmit messages (short reflex). In this experiment, rats were anaesthetized by rethane. The superficial peroneal nerve (SPN) and the deep peroneal nerve (DPN) were found out and cut off in order to break off their connection to CNS. With electrical stimulation of SPN, the action potential (AP) on the DPN was recorded at the same time. AP was induced only in a few cases (5.7%). But, after electroacupuncture was reapplied to Zusanli (ST-39) point for 30 rain, we stimulated SPN with electricity. This showed that APs were recorded on DPN in 17 among 27 rats (58.6%). Since some tissues around Zusanli point involve both SPN and DPN, the results suggest that messages are transmitted between nerve terminals under certain condition and that impluses on a nerve stem may stimulate another nerve terminal. This might be the essence of propagated sensation along the channels.
