OBJECTIVE To explore the pharmaceutical care of reactivating anthracycline chemotherapy in patients with advanced breast cancer complicated with thyroid cancer. METHODS Clinical pharmacists participated in the whole treatment process of a patient with advanced breast cancer complicated with thyroid cancer and provided personalized medication recommendations. Considering that the patient currently has multiple primary anti-tumor drug resistance, clinical pharmacists recommend reactivating the EC rescue protocol (intravenous infusion of epirubicin hydrochloride 140 mg+cyclophosphamide 1 g, d1, 21 days for a cycle). The cumulative lifetime dose of epirubicin and the optimal course of chemotherapy was estimated according to the body weight change of the patient. Given the issue that abnormal fluctuation of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) level during chemotherapy may increase the risk of cardiac toxicity, clinical pharmacists suggest adopting a dose adjustment strategy of “fast first and slow later” for Levothyroxine sodium tablet according to the target range of TSH and test results. RESULTS The doctors adopted the pharmacists’ suggestion; the clinical pharmacists assisted the doctors in reactivating the anthracycline-based 7-cycle combination regimen, during which the patient had no significant cardiac adverse events and was repeatedly evaluated as stable. TSH decreased steadily after Levothyroxine sodium tablets were added, and no adverse reaction related to TSH inhibition was observed. CONCLUSIONS Patients with primary drug-resistant breast cancer complicated with thyroid cancer may be reactived anthracyclines if necessary, but baseline cardiac function and thyroid hormone levels should be tested before initiation, and cardiac toxicity risk assessment should be performed in combination with the patient’s history. Clinical pharmacists should actively exert their professional advantages to carry out whole-process pharmaceutical care for such patients, so as to ensure the safety of drug use for patients.

Objective To investigate CT and MRI findings of giant cell tumors of the temporal bone(GCTTB).Methods CT and MRI features of 5 cases pathologically proven GCTTB were retrospectively reviewed.The lesion characteristics,including location, size,shape,margin,attenuation on CT scans,signal intensity on MR images,and enhancement pattern were documented and analyzed.Results In all 5 patients,the lesions were located adj acent to the mandibular fossa.These lesions were round or oval in shape,predominantly demonstrated as expansive lytic bone destruction containing hyperattenuating septa,calcifications,non-sclerotic borders,and discontinuous bony shells,with“boundary angle”sign.No soft tissue masses were found around the lesions.These lesions with different content demonstrated various MRI signal intensity,and the solid component enhanced intensely.Conclusion GCTTB is rare.Features such as expansive growing pattern,discontinuous bony shell,intralesional septa,calcification,and “boundary angle”sign are common,which may help in the radiographic diagnosis of giant cell tumor.

Objective To investigate the early diagnosis value of MR by detecting spinal inflammatory lesions in ankylosing spon-dylitis (AS).Methods Forty patients were involved in this study,including 20 cases with short inflammatory back pain (IBP)histo-ry (duration ≤18 months)and 20 cases with long IBP history (duration ≥24 months).MR images were analyzed retrospectively. Results Patients with a short history of IBP had 7 lesions in vertebral bodies (anterior/posterior spondylitis and spondylodiscitis) and 33 lesions in posterior spinal structures (arthritis of costovertebral joints,costotransversal joints,zygapophyseal joints and en-thesitis of spinal ligaments).Patients with a long history of IBP had 27 lesions in vertebral bodies and 24 lesions in posterior spinal structures.Patients with a short history of IBP had significantly more lesions in posterior spinal structures than in vertebral bodies with 82.5% (33/40)vs 1 7.5% (7/40),respectively (P <0.01).In contrast,patients with a long history of IBP had significantly more inflammation in vertebral bodies with 79.4% (27/34)vs 20.6% (7/34),respectively (P <0.01).Conclusion Inflammatory spinal lesions in patients with a short history of IBP are seen more often in the posterior structures.Early detection of inflammatory spinal lesions by MRI is useful for early diagnosis of AS.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the risk factors of postoperative complications in gastric carcinoma patients complicated with liver cirrhosis.
METHODSA retrospective research of 41 gastric cancer patients with liver cirrhosis who underwent surgical therapy was performed. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis was carried out to determine risk factors of postoperative complications.
RESULTSThere were no postoperative death in this cohort. Twenty-seven(65.9%) patients developed postoperative complications. As determined by the Logistic regression analysis, Child-Pugh score(OR=27.96, 95% CI:1.16-672.23), albumin level(OR=17.98, 95% CI:1.28-253.36) and intraoperative blood loss(OR=10.60, 95% CI:1.21-92.82) were independent risk factors of postoperative complications.
CONCLUSIONAs for gastric cancer patients with liver cirrhosis, positive perioperative management, adjustment of Child-Pugh classifications score, following damage control principle during operation and reducing the intraoperative bleeding may decrease the morbidity of postoperative complications.

Objective To investigate the expressions and clinical significance of Ki-67,p53,and survivin in esophageal cancer and precancerosis.Methods The expressions of Ki-67,p53,and survivin proteins were detected by immunohistochemical staining in 40 normal esophageal mucosa,136 precancerosis (42 mild atypical hyperplasia,43 moderate atypical hyperplasia,and 51 severe atypical hyperplasia),and 68 esophageal cancer tissues.The correlation of three proteins expressed in esophageal carcinoma tissues was analyzed.Results The positive expression rate of Ki-67 was 0 (0/40)for normal epithelium,35.7% (15/42) for mild dysplasia,51.2% (22/43) for moderate dysplasia,74.5% (38/51) for severe dysplasia,92.6% (63/68) for squamous carcinoma,respectively.The positive expression rate of p53 protein was 0 (0/40) for normal epithelium,28.6% (12/42) for mild dysplasia,46.5% (20/43) for moderate dysplasia,52.9% (27/51) for severe dysplasia,67.6% (46/68) for squamous carcinoma,respectively.The positive expression rate of survivin protein was 0 (0/40) for normal epithelium,38.1% (16/42) for mild dysplasia,55.8% (24/43) for moderate dysplasia,64.7% (33/51) for severe dysplasia,89.7% (61/68) for squamous carcinoma,respectively.Rank correlation analysis showed that abnormal expressions of Ki-67,p53,and survivin were correlated significantly with the pathological grading of the lesions (r =0.637,0.454,0.590,P <0.01).The expressions of Ki-67,p53,and survivin were positively correlated in esophageal carcinoma (r =0.407,0.646,P < 0.01).Conclusions The abnormal expressions of Ki67,p53,and survivin were associated with the processes of the esophageal canceration,and the joint detection with three parameters has important clinical value.

To develop a specific, rapid and convenient method based on molecular motor biosensor to detect food-borne rotavirus. A specific probe was encompassed the conservative region of rotavirus's VP7 segment, and a molecular motor detect device was constructed by connecting probes to F0F1-ATPase molecular motor through biotin-streptavidin system. This biosensor's sensitivity was 0.005 ng/mL for rotavirus RNA. Extracted virus RNA was conjugated with the biosensor separately, at the same time ATP was synthesized. By comparing fluorescence intensity, we can detect rotavirus RNA in samples. This method possessed specificity for rotavirus, without any cross-reaction with Hepatitis A virus and noroviris, and it could be accomplished within 1 h. We detected 15 samples using this method and the results were compared with RT-PCR results. This method is sensitive and specific for rotavirus, and it can be used to detect food-borne rotavirus.
