RESUMO
The Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO) issued the new version of the guidelines on diagnosis and treatment of NSCLC in April 2023.The new version updated the diagnostic and therapeutic strategy of rare oncogenic mutations, including ROS1 fusion, BRAF V600E mutation, NTRK fusion, MET exon 14 skipping mutation, RET fusion, and EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation, in NSCLC.This review will interpret the most important updates in the guidelines 2023 regarding the diagnosis as well as first-line and post-line therapies of these rare oncogenic mutations.
RESUMO
Objective To analyze the growth and development status of children with severe β-thalassemia major (β-TM) in Bazhong area and its correlation with hemoglobin concentration (HGB) and serum ferritin (SF) level, and to provide a theoretical basis for the diagnosis and treatment of children with β-TM in Bazhong area. Methods A total of 292 children with β-TM admitted to Bazhong Central Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were selected. The Z-score method was used to evaluate the growth and development of the children. According to the growth and development of the children, they were divided into the normal group (normal growth and development, n=163) and delayed group (growth and development delay, n=129). Another 60 healthy children were selected as the control group. The levels of HGB, serum SF, free triiodothyronine (FT3), free tetraiodothyroxine (FT4), and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) were compared among the three groups of children, and clinical data such as age, sex and age of onset were collected from the case system. Univariate analysis and logistic regression were used to analyze the independent risk factors of growth and development delay in β-TM children. Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlation between growth retardation and HGB and serum SF levels in β-TM children. Results The serum SF and TSH levels in the delayed group were significantly higher than those in the normal group and the control group, while the levels of HGB and serum FT4 were significantly lower than those in the normal group and control group (P2000 ng/mL were risk factors for growth retardation in β-TM children (P2000 ng/mL, the height, weight, and HGB and serum SF levels should be monitored regularly.
RESUMO
Radiation induced lung injury (RILI) is a serious complication in patients received thoracic radiotherapy. The main clinical symptom of RILI includes short of breath, low fever and cough, seriously affect the survival of patients. How to better prevent and treat RILI is an urgent problem. Target theory, cytokine theory, free radical theory, and vascular endothelial cell damage theory are the main mechanisms of RILI. Among them, reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced during radiotherapy can induce tissue damage throughout the course of RILI, and have a direct effect on both radiation pneumonitis and radiation-induced lung fibrosis. Anti-oxygen therapy including thiol compounds, antioxidant enzymes, and plant antioxidants have been applied in the prevention and treatment of RILI. This article reviews the research and application of antioxidant therapy in RILI. .
RESUMO
Cancer associated fibroblast (CAF) is the most important component in the tumor environment,and some researchers even propose that CAF can be the new target in cancer therapy.However what make it difficult for researchers are the various origins of the CAF,such as resident fibroblast,epithelium,endotheliocyte,mesenchymal cell,stem cell and so on.The various origins define their different phenotypes and functions.Further understanding about the origins of the CAF will help us to explore a novel approach for cancer therapy.
