Objective:To evaluate the sedative effect of remimazolam for induction of general anesthesia in elderly patients.Methods:One hundred patients of both sexes, aged 65-75 yr, with American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ, undergoing elective general anesthesia requiring tracheal intubation, were divided into 4 groups ( n=25 each) using a random number table method: propofol group (group P) and three different doses of remimazolam groups (group R1, group R2 and group R3). In group P, general anesthesia was induced with propofol 1.5 mg/kg intravenously injected over 30 s, cisatracurium 0.2 mg/kg and fentanyl 4 μg/kg were intravenously injected when bispectral index (BIS) value ≤ 60, and endotracheal intubation was performed.In R1, R2 and R3 groups, general anesthesia was induced with 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 mg/kg of remimazolam intravenously injected over 30 s, respectively, cisatracurium 0.2 mg/kg and fentanyl 4 μg/kg were intravenously injected when BIS value ≤ 60, and endotracheal intubation was performed.When the BIS value was > 60 during the induction of anesthesia, propofol 0.5 mg/kg was intravenously injected per time for rescue sedation in group P, and remimazolam 0.05 mg/kg was intravenously injected per time for rescue sedation until the BIS value ≤ 60, with the interval between the two injections > 1 min in R1, R2, and R3 groups.The onset time of propofol or remazolam was recorded.The occurrence of hypertension, hypotension, bradycardia, hypoxemia, injection pain and rescue sedation during the induction of anesthesia was recorded.The occurrence of intraoperative awareness was recorded during follow-up at 1 day after surgery. Results:Compared with group P, the rate of rescue sedation was significantly increased in group R1, the incidence of hypoxemia was significantly reduced in R1 and R2 groups, the onset time was significantly prolonged, and the incidence of hypotension, bradycardia and injection pain was decreased in R1, R2 and R3 groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group R1, the rate of rescue sedation was significantly decreased in R2 and R3 groups ( P<0.05). Compared with R1 and R2 groups, the incidence of hypoxemia was significantly increased in group R3 ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of hypotension, hypoxemia and injection pain among R1 group, R2 group and R3 group ( P>0.05). No hypertension and intraoperative awareness was found in the four groups. Conclusion:Remimazolam can be safely and effectively used for sedation during induction of general anesthesia in elderly patients, and the optimal dose is 0.3 mg/kg.

Objective To investigate the acute adverse reactions of craniospinal irradiation with helical tomotherapy in medulloblastoma patients and its risk factors. Methods A total of 20 patients with medulloblastoma who received craniospinal irradiation with helical tomotherapy between October 2012 and September 2016 in Air Force General Hospital were selected. The acute adverse events of 20 patients during the treatment were record. According to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) version 4.0, the adverse reactions were divided into the mild group (grade 0-Ⅱ) and severe group (grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ) adverse reactions. And the risk factors were also analyzed. Results The non-hematological adverse reactions included fatigue (55％), vomiting (45％) and headache (25％). The hematological adverse reactions included leukopenia (95％), thrombocytopenia (55％) and lower hemoglobin (45％), and the incidence of severe adverse reactions was 35％ (7/20), 20％ (4/20) and 0 ( 0/20 ) , respectively . Leukopenia occurred in 18 patients ( 90％) at the beginning of radiotherapy within 2 weeks, and thrombocytopenia occurred in 8 patients (40％) at the beginning of radiotherapy after 2 weeks. Single factor analysis showed that there were no statistical differences in hematological adverse events of gender, age and radiation dose of spinal cord (all P>0.05). The incidence of leukopenia for the patients who received the chemotherapy before the radiotherapy was higher than that for the patients without the chemotherapy before the radiotherapy (P< 0.05). Conclusions The hematological adverse reactions were the major acute adverse events during the craniospinal irradiation with helical tomotherapy in patients with medulloblastoma. Theincidence of leukopenia and thrombocytopenia is common, and the incidence of hematological adverse reactions is higher after the chemotherapy. Thus, the close monitoring of hemogram change and treatment of hematological adverse reactions in time during the radiotherapy should be taken into the consideration.

Objective To introduce the therapeutic procedures of helical tomotherapy based total marrow irradiation(HT-TMI), and validate the feasibility of TMI. Methods At 1 week before bone marrow transplantation,12 patients received TMI conditioning regimen at a prescriptive dose of 12 Gy in 3 times,once daily. Patient immobilization, CT simulation, target delineation, plan design and dosimetric verification were implemented in sequence according to the TMI procedures. The dosimetric paramaters of the target and normal tissues were analysed. The correlation between the dose verification and image-guided results was observed. Results Compared with total body irradiation(TBI), TMI could significantly reduce the irradiation dose to normal tissues. The median dose D50of all normal tissues except the oral cavity were lower than 6 Gy,where The D50of lens,brain,lung and liver are (1.8±0.1) Gy, (5.7±0.2) Gy, (5.2±0.2) Gy, and (4.6±0.2) Gy, respectively. Pass rate of γ Index was larger than 95% with 3mm/3% criterian for each section. The positioning error of head and neck was relatively lower than that of pelvis at x-axis,and was higher at z-axis.Conclusions Helical tomotherapy based TMI is a feasible and reasonable approach,which has evident dosimetric advantage.

With the rapid development of sequencing technologies towards higher throughput andlower cost, sequence data are generated at an unprecedentedly explosive rate. To provide an efficientand easy-to-use platform for managing huge sequence data, here we present Genome Sequence Archive (GSA; http://bigd.big.ac.cn/gsa or http://gsa.big.ac.cn), a data repository for archiving rawsequence data. In compliance with data standards and structures of the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration (INSDC), GSA adopts four data objects (BioProject, Bio Sample,Experiment, and Run) for data organization, accepts raw sequence reads produced by a variety of sequencing platforms, stores both sequence reads and metadata submitted from all over the world,and makes all these data publicly available to worldwide scientific communities. In the era of bigdata, GSA is not only an important complement to existing INSDC members by alleviating theincreasing burdens of handling sequence data deluge, but also takes the significant responsibilityfor global big data archive and provides free unrestricted access to all publicly available data insupport of research activities throughout the world.

Objective To study the dose characteristics of Body γ Knife and Tomotherapy treatment plans for hepatocellular carcinoma,and compare their differences between organs at risk (OAR) dose and the range of low dose.Methods CT simulation images of twelve patients with hepatocellular carcinoma were selected,the target volume and OAR were drew by doctor.Body γ Knife and Tomotherapy treatment plans were optimized with their own planning station.The dosimetric characteristics were evaluated by dose volume histograms and were compared.To analyze the difference between the two techniques,the paired t-test was applied.Results The Dmax and Dmean of target with Body γ Knife were higher than Tomotherapy (P =0.002,0.000),but the conformal index of PTV of Tomotherapy was superior to the Body γ Knife (P =0.001).The Dmax of spinal cord and left kidney with Body γ Knife was lower than Tomotherapy (P =0.013,0.012),and it was also in the Dean of stomach and left kidney (P =0.010,0.023).In the volume dose comparison,the V40,V35,V30,V25 and V20 of normal tissue (all Body-PTV) and liver (all liver-GTV) with Body γ Knife were higher than Tomotherapy (P =0.001,0.001,0.001,0.007,0.029),but the V10 and V5 were lower (P =0.019,0.031),the Dmax of stomach,Dmean of right kidney and liver were no statistical difference (P =0.247,0.308,0.401).Conclusions Both treatment plans could meet the clinical dosimetric need,by the same prescription dose,Dmax and Dmean of target of Body γ Knife were higher than Tomotherapy.Tomotherapy had excellent dose-target conformal and could reduce the range of V25-V40 of OAR and normal tissue,but the range of V5-V10 was increased obviously.

Objective To seek a optimization method for lung cancer planning with Helical TomoTherapy for reducing the low dose area of total lung.Methods CT images of thirty patients with unilateral lung cancer were selected.Seven plans (Groups A,B,C,D,E,F and G) were generated for each patient using an identical optimization procedure with the conditions that implemented contralateral lung with unblocked (control group),1/4 directional block,1/2 directional block,directional block,1/4 complete block,1/2 complete block and complete block,respectively.The benefits in different schemes of reducing the low dose area of normal lung tissue were estimated,in order to provide a reference treatment plan scheme in clinical.Results Groups B,C,D and E had less influence on the target than that of group A.And there were no statistical difference between the target dosimetric parameters.The median dose and average dose of group F were increased within 0.5 Gy.The conformal index of group G had great influence on the target.The low dose area of total lung were reduced effectively in Groups C,D,E,F and G,the average decrease of V5 and V10 was 8.06％-45.26％ and 6.21％-33.95％,respectively.The V20 decreased by 1.71％-3.78％ in directional block group,while V20 increased in complete block group (2.07％-5.07％).The single treatment time was increased by 8.51％-79.22％.Conclusions The results showed that the low dose area of total lung was higher for the plan without any block limitation.It could reduce the low dose area of total lung with directional block.We should lengthen the blocking arc of contralateral lung with directional block based on the fractional treatment time and the patient's physical condition.A certain arc of contralateral lung with complete block could effectively reduce low dose area.When complete block was used,it is suggested that the arc was no more than half of the contralateral lung.

Objective To identify dosimetric predictors for the development of gastrointestinal toxicity in patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma treated with TOMO radiotherapy .Methods From January 2014 to Janu-ary 2015 ,we analysed the medical records of 68 pancreatic cancer patients who received helical tomotherapy from Air Force General Hospital .The stomach and duodenum were contoured separately to determine their dose volume histogram(DVH)parameters.Chi-square test was employed to analyze the count data .Spearman correlation anal-ysis was used to analyze the relationship between occurrence of gastrointestinal toxicity and clinical and physical factors.Logistic regression models was performed to identify risk factors associated with gastrointestinal toxicity . Results The median follow-up was 9 months(4~16 months).18 patients experienced grade II acute gastroin-testinal toxicity ,1 patient experienced grade Ⅲ acute gastrointestinal toxicity , whereas 17 patients experienced grade II late gastrointestinal toxicity ,1 patient experienced grade Ⅲlate gastrointestinal toxicity .On UVA,the vol-ume,Dmean,D1,D3,D5,D10,V5 to V40,and V5′to V45′of duodenum were significantly associated with GradeⅡor higher gastrointestinal toxicity ( P <0.05 ) .The MVA, V45′of duodenum was independent predictor for gradeⅡor higher gastrointestinal toxicity(P<0.05).The ROC analysis also showed that V45′of 0.5cm3 was the optimal threshold to predict for gastrointestinal toxicity for the entire cohort .Conclusion V45′of duodenum is of greater importance in the judgment of occurrence of hypofractioned radiation -induced gastrointestinal toxici-ty.

Tomotherapy plans were produced using a combination of field widths (1 cm, 2.5 cm and 5 cm) and pitches (0.15, 0.30, and 0.45) for seven patients with brain metastases from lung cancer, the plans were compared with dosimetric parameters, protection of organs at risk (OAR) dose and treatment times. All plans were defined that CTV with 30Gy and GTV 50 Gy by ten fraction synchronously. The results showed that the mean dose and CI for GTV was statistical difference (P = 0.002 1, P = 0.012 8), OARs were within the normal range, the treatment time increased inversely proportional to the jaw width, but had lesser impact on the pitch. This study showed plans produced with 5 cm jaw was an effective method for patients with brain metastases from lung cancer.
