Objective To observe the value of serum soluble receptor of advanced glycation endproducts (sRAGE) combined with lung function and high resolution lung CT (HRCT) in predicting the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) developing non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods From January 2019 to June 2021, 140 patients with COPD combined with NSCLC, 137 patients with COPD, and 133 patients with NSCLC were enrolled in the study from the People's Hospital of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. General data, clinical symptoms, pulmonary function indexes and HRCT emphysema indexes (EI) were collected. Serum sRAGE levels of these patients were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Clinical characteristics of patients with COPD complicated with NSCLC were analyzed. Serum sRAGE, lung function and lung HRCT were combined to evaluate the correlation between the degree of emphysema and the occurrence of NSCLC in COPD, and receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed for diagnostic efficiency. Results Compared with NSCLC group, COPD combined with NSCLC group had higher proportion of male patients, higher proportion of elderly patients, higher smoking index, and higher proportion of squamous cell carcinoma (P<0.05). FEV1 and FEV1%pred in COPD combined with NSCLC group were significantly lower than those in COPD group and NSCLC group. The Goddard score and EI values of emphysema were significantly increased (P<0.05). Serum sRAGE was significantly lower than that of COPD group and NSCLC group (P<0.05). Serum sRAGE level was positively correlated with FEV1%pred (r=0.366, P<0.001) and FEV1/FVC (r=0.419, P<0.001), and negatively correlated with Goddard score (r=–0.710, P=0.001) and EI value (r=–0.515, P<0.001). Binary multi-factor logistic regression analysis showed that age, smoking index, EI, Goddard score, RV/TLC were positively correlated with the risk of COPD developing NSCLC, while FEV1%pred, FVC, FEV1/FVC and serum sRAGE were negatively correlated with the risk of COPD developing NSCLC. ROC curve results showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of single diagnosis of sRAGE was 0.990, and the optimal cut-off value of 391.98 pg/mL with sensitivity of 93.3% and specificity of 89.7%. The AUC of sRAGE combined with age, smoking index, EI, Goddard score, FEV1%pred, FVC, FEV1/FVC, RV/TLC was 1.000 with sensitivity of 96.7%, specificity of 96.6%, and Yoden index of 0.933. Conclusion The combination of serum sRAGE, lung function and HRCT emphysema score can improve prediction of NSCLC occurrence in COPD.
We have performed guided chemoembolization on 84 patients of moderate and advanced carcinoma of liver using adriamycin lipiodol emulsion (A/L) since 1986. Result showed that the rate of improvement of symptoms was 86.1%, in 75% cases the AFP were decreased and in 79.2% the size of tumor were reduced. The mean survival time was 10.3 months which was much higher than that of the control group (5.6 months,Plt;0.001). THe survival rates of 1/2,1,2,3 year were 89.3%,43.4%,13.5% and 3.8% respctively that were significantly higher than those of the control group (51.2%, 11.5%,0) (Plt;0.01). Three patients underwent secondary resection after using A/L chemoembolization ans gelatin spinge central embolization with a longer survival rate. This may be a good method of treatment to the nonresectable liver cancers and may also be an easy way for postoperative observation.

ObjectiveTo study on the first metastasis pattern and prognostic factors in patients with recurrent and metastatic breast cancer.MethodsThe study selected 147 patients with metastatic breast cancer who were diagnosed for the first time in the Breast Thyroid Center and Oncology Department, the People's Hospital of Wuhan University from June 2016 to June 2018. The model of first metastasis and the first diagnosis of prognosis may be affected. The age at diagnosis of breast cancer, tumor size, lymph node metastasis, hormone receptor status, HER-2 status, number of metastatic organs, tumor location, molecular typing, etc. were retrospective analyzedResultsThe most common metastatic sites for breast cancer was bone metastases in 55 patients (37.41%), followed by lung metastasis and liver metastases, 29 (19.73%) and 24 (16.33%), respectively. Univariate analysis showed that the number of lymph node metastasis, HER-2 status, organ number of first-time metastasis, and endocrine therapy were significant factors affecting metastatic survival time, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the number of lymph node metastasis, the number of metastatic organs and HER-2 were independent risk factors for advanced breast cancer (P<0.05).ConclusionsThe most common metastasis of breast cancer patients after surgery is bone, followed by lung metastasis and liver metastasis. The number of lymph node metastases, the number of metastatic organs, HER-2 status, and endocrine therapy are independent factors influencing the prognosis of patients with recurrent metastasis.
ObjectiveTo analyze the efficacy and safety of immunotherapy and bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy (BIC), bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy (BC), chemotherapy (CT), immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy (IC), bevacizumab combined with immunotherapy (BI), bevacizumab (B) in the first-line treatment of advanced wild-type non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer. MethodsThe PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and Web of Science databases were searched to collect phase Ⅱ/Ⅲ randomized controlled trials (RCTs) related to the objectives of the study from January 2010 to December 1, 2022. After two investigators independently screened the literatures, extracted the data and evaluated the risk of bias of the included studies, a reticular meta-analysis was performed using R 3.6.1 software. ResultsA total of 11 RCTs were finally included, including 5 329 patients and six treatment combinations. Meta-analysis results showed that BIC was superior to CT for progression-free survival (PFS) (HR=0.34, 95% CI 0.18 to 0.69), but BIC did not show a significant advantage over the other groups for overall survival (OS). Bayesian ranking results showed that the BIC group had the greatest probability in terms of OS, PFS, and ORR. Among all programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expressing subgroups, there was no significant difference in OS between BIC, BC, IC, CT, BI, and B. Compared with CT, IC was significantly improved in OS (HR=0.68, 95%CI 0.52 to 0.92), PFS (HR=0.58, 95%CI 0.45 to 0.75), and ORR (HR=0.47, 95%CI 0.33 to 0.66). ConclusionIn the first-line treatment of wild-type advanced non-squamous NSCLC, immunotherapy and bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy may improve the efficacy in the short term, but do not change the long-term survival time. Immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy can significantly improve the survival time and prognosis of patients compared with chemotherapy alone. Due to the limited quantity and quality of the included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
Objectives To systematically review the efficacy and safety of docetaxel or epirubicin based regimens in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer. Methods We searched EMbase, PubMed, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CBM, CNKI and WanFang Data from inception to March 2017, to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on docetaxel or epirubicin based regimens in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. Results A total of 12 RCTs involving 984 advanced gastric cancer patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that docetaxel based regimens were superior to epirubicin based regimens in ORR (RR=1.21, 95%CI 1.02 to 1.43, P=0.03), DCR (RR=1.13, 95%CI 1.01 to 1.26, P=0.03), 1-year survival rate (RR=1.26, 95%CI 1.01 to 1.56, P=0.04) and 2-year survival rate (RR=3.03, 95%CI 1.59 to 5.75, P=0.000 7), while there was no statistical difference between two groups in the incidence of grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ adverse events. The results of sensitivity analysis showed that docetaxel based regimens were superior to epirubicin based regimens in 2-year survival rate (RR=2.56, 95%CI 1.06 to 6.19, P=0.04), but there were no statistical differences in ORR (RR=1.13, 95%CI 0.88 to 1.45, P=0.34), DCR (RR=1.02, 95%CI 0.85 to 1.21, P=0.84) and 1-year survival rate (RR=1.29, 95%CI 0.92 to 1.80, P=0.14). The results of sensitivity analysis indicated that the overall outcomes might be affected by the risk bias of included studies. The comparision between docetaxel based regimens and epirubicin based regimens was consistent with the overall outcomes in the incidence of grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ adverse events. Conclusions Compared with epirubicin based regimens, docetaxel based regimens may have more clinical benefits for advanced gastric cancer patients. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify above conclusions.
