ABSTRACT

@#Objective To investigate the value of endovascular therapy for cognitive dysfunction in patients with moderate or severe vertebrobasilar artery stenosis. Methods A total of 78 patients with cognitive dysfunction due to basilar artery stenosis who were treated in the Outpatient and Inpatient Department of Neurology,People's Hospital of Rizhao,China from March 2019 to November 2022 were prospectively enrolled and divided into endovascular stenting(EVS) group and non-EVS group according to whether they underwent endovascular therapy. Before and after treatment,attention and processing speed-trail making test(TMT)-A,executive function-TMT-B,and mini-mental state examination(MMSE) were conducted. These neuropsychological tests were carried out again after 6 months of follow-up. Computed tomography perfusion examination was performed twice before and after treatment to evaluate the patients' cerebral blood perfusion. The clinical data of the two groups were compared to summarize the therapeutic effect on cognitive dysfunction. Results A total of 78 patients,aged(45.03±13.00)years,with a male-to-female ratio of 1.79∶1,were included in the study. There were no significant differences between the EVS group and the non-EVS group in age,sex,years of education,hypertension,diabetes,stroke history,smoking history,and drinking history(P>0.05). Within one week after treatment,MMSE improvement was significantly different between the EVS group and the non-EVS group(P<0.001). There were no significant differences in the changes in TMT-A and TMT-B between the two groups(P>0.05). After 6 months of follow-up,the improvements in MMSE,TMT-A,and TMT-B in the EVS group were better than those in the non-EVS group(P<0.05). In the EVS group,cerebral blood perfusion was significantly improved,the time to peak was significantly shortened,and the cerebral blood flow was increased. No similar changes were observed in the non-EVS group. Conclusion Endovascular stenting for vertebrobasilar artery stenosis has a certain clinical value in improving cognitive function,and the effect becomes more obvious with the extension of time.

ABSTRACT

Since the first application of whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT) to brain metastases in 1950 s,it has been regarded as a standard treatment for brain metastases of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Recently,more accurate radiotherapy technique and more effective systemic therapy have been developed.Especially,the molecular targeted drugs are upgraded rapidly with stronger targeting capability and better permeability of the central nervous system.With the prolonged survival of patients,long-term damage to the nervous system induced by WBRT causes widespread concerns.This article will review the related controversies and research progress in the application of WBRT to NSCLC with brain metastases in modern integrated therapy.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: Lung adenocarcinoma (LA) is one of the major types of lung cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an essential role in regulating responses of natural killer (NK) cells to cancer malignancy. However, the mechanism of miR-218-5p involved in the killing effect of NK cells to LA cells remains poorly understood. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The expression of miR-218-5p was examined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Serine hydroxymethyl transferase 1 (SHMT1) level was detected by qRT-PCR or western blots. Cytokines production of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected by ELISA. The killing effect of NK cells to LA cells was investigated using lactate dehydrogenase cytotoxicity assay kit. The interaction of miR-218-5p and SHMT1 was probed by luciferase activity assay. Xenograft model was established to investigate the killing effect of NK cells in vivo. RESULTS: miR-218-5p was enhanced and SHMT1 was inhibited in NK cells of LA patients, whereas stimulation of interleukin-2 (IL-2) reversed their abundances. Addition of miR-218-5p reduced IL-2-induced cytokines expression and cytotoxicity in NK-92 against LA cells. Moreover, SHMT1 was negatively regulated by miR-218-5p and attenuated miR-218-5p-mediated effect on cytotoxicity, IFN-γ and TNF-α secretion in IL-2-activated NK cells. In addition, miR-218-5p exhaustion inhibited tumor growth by promoting killing effect of NK cells. CONCLUSION: miR-218-5p suppresses the killing effect of NK cells to LA cells by targeting SHMT1, providing a potential target for LA treatment by ameliorating NK cells function.

ABSTRACT

Surgery,radiotherapy and chemotherapy are three traditional treatments for malignant tumors.With the development of medicine,immunotherapy has been gradually adopted as an emerging therapy of malignancies.Recent clinical studies have demonstrated that the combination of radiotherapy and immunotherapy can induce the abscopal effect and improve the prognosis of patients.Compared with the conventional radiotherapy,stereotactic radiotherapy has a larger single dose and higher accuracy,which is more likely to induce the bystander effect and anti-tumor response.The combination of stereotactic radiotherapy and immunotherapy has been proven to be a more promising therapy in certain clinical trials.However,not all types of tumors can benefit from such combined therapy in clinical practice.The optimal dose,fraction pattern and lesion of radiotherapy,immune enhancement and safety remain to be further clarified.In this article,the research progress,related controversies and future research direction of stereotactic radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy for malignancies were reviewed.

ABSTRACT

Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by dysregulated host responses to infection. Despite decades of research, it remains the leading cause of death in intensive care units (ICUs). None of the current treatment, including antibiotics, organ protection and liquid resuscitation, is specifically effective for sepsis. Immunosuppression is one of the currently accepted pathogenesis and immunotherapy is one of the hot spot of current sepsis research. Immune related treatments include restricting the release of pathogen toxin and its removal, controlling the excessive inflammatory reaction and apoptosis inhibition, etc. Numerous pre-clinical studies using immunomodulatory agents such as interleukin-7 (IL-7), anti-programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) antibody and others, have demonstrated reversal of T cell dysfunction and improved survival resulting from reviewing recent advances in immunotherapy of sepsis. Therefore, immunotherapy may be a new way of sepsis treatment.

ABSTRACT

Objective To improve the understanding of leptomeningeal metastasis (LM),we analyzed the data of clinical manifestations,imaging findings and cytological analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in a group of patients with LM of malignant solid tumors.Methods The clinical data of 94 patients with LM of malignant solid tumors between 2009 and 2014 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.We compared the clinical manifestations and auxiliary examinations of patients with different pathological types of LM.The Chi-square test was used to compare the results.Results The pathological types included adenocarcinoma (61),small cell carcinoma (24),squamous carcinoma (6),melanoma (1),large-cell carcinoma (1),and hepatocellular carcinoma (1).The median age was 58 (37-75) and the median KPS score was 40 (10-80).About 98.9% (93/94) patients had neurologic symptoms.Neuroimaging examination was performed in 84 patients,with the sensitivity of 88.1% (74/84);cytological analysis of CSF was performed in 85 patients,with the sensitivity of 88.2% (75/85);while CSF biochemical examination was performed in 85 patients,with the sensitivity of 90.6% (77/85).The sensitivity of cytology in adenocarcinoma (96.6%,56/58) was higher than those in small cell carcinoma (80%,16/20;P =0.056).The sensitivity of neuroimaging in small cell carcinoma (95.8%,23/24) was higher than that in adenocarcinoma (83.3%,45/52;P =0.409).However,the sensitivity of cytology (1/5) and neuroimaging (4/6) in squamous carcinoma was low,which led to the need of comprehensive analysis for the diagnosis.The incidence of headache,spinal nerve-related symptoms,ependymal enhancement and metastatic nodules of lumbosacral intraspinal in adenocarcinoma and small cell carcinoma showed statistically significant difference,which was 88.5% (54/61) and 29.2% (7/24;P < 0.01),18.0% (11/61) and 45.8% (11/24;P =0.008),2/6 and 25.0% (6/24;P=0.017),1.9% (1/61)and50.0% (12/24;P < 0.01),respectively.Conclusions Neuroimaging and CSF examination are still the key points for the diagnosis of LM of malignant solid tumors.The clinical manifestations are correlated with pathological types of primary tumor.
