进展期胃癌术后感染并发症对术后辅助化疗的影响 [j].
BACKGROUND:The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of postoperative infectious complications on adjuvant chemotherapy administration in patients with gastric cancer. METHODS:A retrospective review of 308 patients who underwent curative resection for gastric cancer was performed. Patients were divided into two groups based on the presence (90 patients, 29.2%) or absence (218 patients, 70.8%) of postoperative infectious complications to analyze clinicopathological characteristics, treatment factors and survival. RESULTS:Fewer patients with postoperative infectious complication received adjuvant chemotherapy compared to those without postoperative infectious complication. The proportion of patients who started treatment within 6 weeks after surgery was significantly lower in patients with postoperative infectious complication. The treatment completion rate was significantly lower in patients with postoperative infectious complication. The number of treatment cycles and relative dose intensity was significantly lower in patients with postoperative infectious complication. In univariate analysis, only postoperative infectious complication was significantly associated with continuation of adjuvant chemotherapy. Multivariate analysis demonstrated tumor depth, nodal involvement, postoperative infectious complication and adjuvant chemotherapy were significantly associated with overall survival. CONCLUSION:Postoperative infectious complications are significantly associated with the delay of adjuvant chemotherapy and predict adverse clinical outcome in patients with gastric cancer.
背景: 本研究旨在探讨胃癌患者术后感染并发症对辅助化疗的影响。 方法: 回顾性分析308例胃癌根治术患者的临床资料。根据有无术后感染并发症 (90例,29.2%) 或有无术后感染并发症 (218例,70.8%) 将患者分为两组,分析临床病理特征、治疗因素及生存情况。 结果: 与无术后感染并发症的患者相比,术后感染并发症的患者接受辅助化疗的患者较少。在术后感染并发症患者中,术后6周内开始治疗的患者比例明显较低。术后感染并发症患者的治疗完成率明显较低。术后感染并发症患者的治疗周期数和相对剂量强度显著降低。在单因素分析中,只有术后感染性并发症与继续辅助化疗显著相关。多因素分析显示肿瘤深度、淋巴结转移、术后感染并发症和辅助化疗与总生存期显著相关。 结论: 胃癌术后感染性并发症与辅助化疗的延迟和不良临床预后显著相关。

METHODS::The ATP binding-cassette superfamily corresponds the mostly transmembrane transporters family found in humans. These proteins actively transport endogenous and exogenous substrates through biological membranes in body tissues, so they have an important role in the regulation of many physiological functions necessary for human homeostasis, as well as in response regulation to several pharmacological substrates. The development of multidrug resistance has become one of the main troubles in conventional chemotherapy in different illnesses including cancer, being the increased efflux of antineoplastic drugs the main reason for this multidrug resistance, with a key role of the ABC superfamily. Likely, the interindividual variability in the pharmacological response among patients is well known, and may be due to intrinsically factors of the disease, genetic and environmental ones. Thus, the understanding of this variability, especially the genetic variability associated with the efficacy and toxicity of drugs, can provide a safer and more effective pharmacological treatment, so ABC genes are considered as important regulators due to their relationship with the reduction in pharmacological response. In this review, updated information about transporters belonging to this superfamily was collected, the possible role of these transporters in cancer, the role of genetic variability in their genes, as well as some therapeutic tools that have been tried to raise against main transporters associated with chemoresistance in cancer.
METHODS:BACKGROUND:Cholinergic neurotransmission regulates neuroinflammation in Parkinson disease (PD). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS:The authors conducted a delayed-start study of donepezil for cognitive decline in non-demented PD patients. The study consisted of a 96-week randomized placebo-controlled double-blind phase 1, followed by a 24-week donepezil extension phase 2. The primary outcome measure was a change in the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) at week 120. RESULTS:A total of 98 patients were randomly allocated to the early-start (donepezil-to-donepezil) and delayed-start (placebo-to-donepezil) groups. Mean (SD) of the baseline MMSE was 27.6 (2.0) and 28.0 (2.1), respectively. MMSE change at week 120 was better in the early-start group than in the delayed-start group, but the difference was not significant. The MMSE declined in apolipoprotein ε4 carriers, but not in non-carriers, and the factor interaction (intervention × ε4 genotype) was highly significant (P < 0.001). Analyzed with the interaction, the difference was significant (group difference 1.95 [0.33 to 3.57], P = 0.018). The MMSE decline slope in phase 1 was significantly better in the early-start group than in the delayed-start group (P = 0.048). CONCLUSIONS:Cognitive function deteriorated in ε4 carriers, but not in non-carriers, and early-start donepezil may postpone cognitive decline in the former.
METHODS::Since the discovery of dental pulp stem cells, a lot of teams have expressed an interest in dental pulp regeneration. Many approaches, experimental models and biological explorations have been developed, each including the use of stem cells and scaffolds with the final goal being clinical application in humans. In this review, the authors' objective was to compare the experimental models and strategies used for the development of biomaterials for tissue engineering of dental pulp with stem cells. Electronic queries were conducted on PubMed using the following terms: pulp regeneration, scaffold, stem cells, tissue engineering and biomaterial. The extracted data included the following information: the strategy envisaged, the type of stem cells, the experimental models, the exploration or analysis methods, the cytotoxicity or viability or proliferation cellular tests, the tests of scaffold antibacterial properties and take into account the vascularization of the regenerated dental pulp. From the 71 selected articles, 59% focused on the "cell-transplantation" strategy, 82% used in vitro experimentation, 58% in vivo animal models and only one described an in vivo in situ human clinical study. 87% used dental pulp stem cells. A majority of the studies reported histology (75%) and immunohistochemistry explorations (66%). 73% mentioned the use of cytotoxicity, proliferation or viability tests. 48% took vascularization into account but only 6% studied the antibacterial properties of the scaffolds. This article gives an overview of the methods used to regenerate dental pulp from stem cells and should help researchers create the best development strategies for research in this field.
