ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of sorafenib in the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma.Methods The clinical date of 33 patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma from September 2007 to April 2012 was reviewed retrospectively.26 were males and 7 were females,with an average age of 69 years.Pathological diagnosis showed 30 clear cell RCCs,2 papillary RCCs,and 1 unclassified RCC.These patients were treated by sorafenib 400 mg twice a day until intolerable toxicity or disease progression.The primary end points were objective response rate,clinical benefit rate,median survival time,median progression-free survival and the incidence of adverse reaction.Results All patients were evaluable for response and toxicity,with 8 patients (24%) of partial remission,19 cases (58%) of stable disease,and 6 cases (18%) of disease progression.The disease control rate was 82%,the median progression-free survival was 10.2 months,while the median survival time was 16.5 months.The common adverse reactions included hand-foot skin reaction (61%),diarrhea (46%),hypertension (21%).Most adverse reactions occurred around the second week after drug therapy,with the duration unequal.The majority of adverse reactions could be released by symptomatic treatment,which did not affect the medication.Conclusion Sorafenib has good short term efficacy for patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma,and most adverse reactions were tolerable.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of Jingganquzhi decoction(JQ,净肝祛脂汤) in treating non-alcoholic fatty liver.Methods Eighty patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver were randomly divided into treatment group to receive JQ and control group to receive Dongbaogantai(DG,东宝肝泰) orally for 3 months.The changes of liver function,blood lipids,B ultrasonic examination were observed.Results After the treatment,the liver function criteria: alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),alkaline phosphatase(ALP),?-glutamyltransferase(?-GGT) and blood lipids of triglycerides(TG),total cholesterol(TC) were lower than those before the treatment,while the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C) was higher than that before the treatment in both groups(all P

ABSTRACT
The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology has performed series of teaching reforms for the seven-year medical students.For the theory classes,all the teachers are the senior ones who can enhance the bilingual teaching and combine the clinical cases with the latest development in the subject.We let the interns follow the diagnosis and treatment of the patients just as the patients'relatives.We also let a tutor to guide each intern to help him master the basic clinical art.During the ward inspection for teaching,we let the students be the main speaker,hoping that we can build a new student-centered teaching model.
