ObjectivesTo investigate the influence of scanning parameters (tube voltages and tube currents) on image quality and corresponding radiation doses with simulated lung nodules in chest CT.MethodsThe anthropomorphic chest phantoms with 12 simulated, randomly placed nodules of different diameters and densities in the chest were scanned by different scanning parameters. The detection rate, degree of nodular deformation, image quality (with both subjective and objective evaluation) and the corresponding radiation doses were recorded and evaluated, and the correlation between nodule detection rate, degree of nodular deformation, radiation dose and image quality using different scanning parameters was analyzed.ResultsThe image quality improved with the increase of tube voltage and tube current (P<0.05). When the tube current was constant, the CT values of the vertebral decreased gradually with the increase of tube voltages (P<0.05); however, significant difference was not detected in CT values of the lung field (P>0.05). When the tube current was 100 mAs, the lung nodules with CT values of +100 HU and −630 HU showed statistical difference when using different tube voltage (P<0.05); but there was no significant difference in nodules of −800 HU (P=0.57). When tube voltage was 100 kV and 120 kV each, it was possible to detect all lung nodules with a detection rate of 100%. The detection rate was 33% and 66% in 3 mm diameter when the tube current was 80 kV/15 mA and 80 kV/20 mA, respectively. The nodules deformation in nodules with a CT value of −630 HU and diameter less than 5 mm was the most prominent (P<0.05). After analyzing the relationship between image quality and radiation doses using different tube voltages, we established a system of correlation equations: 80 kV: Y=2.625X+0.038; 100 kV: Y=14.66X+0.158; 120 kV: Y=18.59X+0.093.ConclusionsThe image quality improves with the increase of tube current and tube voltage, as well as the corresponding radiation doses. By reducing the tube voltage and increasing the tube current appropriately, the radiation doses can be reduced. Follow-up CT examination of pulmonary ground glass nodules should apply the same tube voltage imaging parameters, so as to effectively reduce the measurement error of nodule density and evaluate the change of nodules more accurately.
Objective To explore value of multidisciplinary team (MDT) model in diagnosis and treatment of patients with advanced special thyroid cancer who lost chance of operation. Method Two patients with the advanced special thyroid cancer who lost chance of operation were treated by low dose apatinib (250 mg/d) after the MDT discussion. Results One medullary thyroid cancer patient with the compressing of the trachea for mediastinal metastatic lymphadenopathy and inability to lie down underwent the multiple surgical treatment, the therapeutic effect was poor. Then low dose apatinib (250 mg/d) was performed, the patient could supine, breathe smoothly, and move freely, whose life quality was obviously improved, the mediastinal lymph nodes reduced and no serious drug toxicity occurred on month 1 after the treatment. One undifferentiated thyroid cancer patient with the lung metastasis, hemoptysis, and tumor invasion resulted in the inability to lie down and having difficulty in breathing, these symptoms still existed and more pleural effusion occurred after the resection of the invaded trachea. Then low dose apatinib (250 mg/d) was performed, the patient could supine, the pleural effusion disappeared, the hemoptysis stopped, the breathing was smooth, and could do some minor housework, no drug toxicity occurred on month 1 after the treatment. Conclusion After MDT discussion, low dose apatinib in treatment of advanced special thyroid cancer is reliable and safe and has a good short-term effect, which could be used as a new remedy, but long-term effect should be further researched by increasing case samples and a long-term following-up.
Objective To investigate the effect of the synthetic bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2)derived peptide on the osteogenic induction in the marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs）and to evaluate the osteoinductivity and dosedependence of the BMP-2 derived peptide in vitro. Methods MSCs of 4-week old Wistar rats were separated and cultured. In the 3rd passage, the conditional culture medium was changed, in which the BMP-2-derived peptide in the following doses was added: 300,200, 100, 50, and 0 μg/ml, respectively (Groups A-E). The activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP）and the amount of calciumdeposition were meassured at 5，10，15 and 20 days during the culture with the conditional culture medium. The real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (FQ-PCR) was performed to measure the mRNA expressions of collagen type Ⅰ, osteopontin (OPN), and osteocalcin（OCN）and to measure the osteoinductivity of the BMP-2-derived peptide in the different concentrations.Results Under the inverted phase contrast microscope, MSCs cultured in the conditional culture medium for 3-4 days were changed in shape, from long fusiform to short fusiform or polygon. As the concentration of the BMP-2-derived peptide increased, the time for MSCs to change into the osteoblasts decreased. There was a significantly greater level of the ALP activity and amount of the calcium deposition in Groups A and B than in the other groups（Plt;0.05）. However,there was no significant difference between Group A and Group B （Pgt;0.05）. Theresult of FQPCR showed that after MSCs were cultured in the different doses of theconditional culture medium for 14 days, the mRNA expressions of collagen type Ⅰ, OPN andOCN were at higher levels. An increasing order in the level of the cycle threshold (Ct) was found in the following groups: Agt;Bgt;Cgt;D. Almost no expression was found in Group E. The Ct levels were significantly greater in Groups A and B thanin Groups C and D（Plt;0.05）. However, there was no significant difference between Group A and Group B （Pgt;0.05）.ConclusionThe BMP-2-derived peptide can greatly promote differentiation of MSCs into the osteoblasts, the promotion of osteogenesis has a dosedependent pattern, and the best inducing dosage is 200 μg/ml.
ObjectiveTo develop reporting guideline for dose-response meta-analysis (DMA), so as to help Chinese authors to understand DMA better and to promote the reporting quality of DMA conducted by them. MethodPubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, and WanFang Data were searched from Jan 1st 2011 to Dec 30th 2015 to collect DMA papers published by Chinese authors. The number of these publications by years, whether and what kind of reporting guideline was used, and whether the DMA method claimed in these publications was correct were analysed. Then we drafted a checklist of items for reporting DMA, and organized a discussion meeting with experts from the fields of DMA, evidence-based medicine, clinical epidemiology, and clinicians to collect suggestions for revising the draft reporting guideline for DMA. ResultsOnly 33.73% of the publications clarified it is a DMA on the title and 48.02% of them reported risk of bias. Almost 38.49% of the publications didn't use any reporting guidelines. Fourteen of them claimed an incorrect use of methodology. We primarily took account for 47 potential items related to DMA based on our literature analysis results and existing reporting guidelines for other types of meta-analyses. After the discussion meeting with 6 experts, we revised the items, and finally the G-Dose checklist with 43 items for reporting DMA was developed. ConclusionThere is a lack of attention on reporting guidelines in Chinese authors and evidence suggests these authors may be at risk of incomplete understanding on reporting guidelines. It is strongly recommended to use reporting guidelines for DMA and other types of meta-analyses in Chinese authors.
Therapeutic effect of fixed-dose combination therapy (Polypill) for cardiovascular disease is a hot spot in the field of cardiovascular medicine. A variety of Polypill have been developed for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease, and a plenty of clinical evidence of Polypills for cardiovascular disease has been accumulated all over the world. In this paper, we raise ideas and expectation about research & development thinking of Polypill and Chinese herbal compound prescription based on a meta-analysis of efficacy and safety of Polypill in the prevention of cardiovascular disease (published in JAMA in Nov. 2014) as well as main clinical research literature in this field in recent years.
Objectives To investigate calcium supplement in pregnancy for prevention of preeclampsia and relevant outcomes. Methods The Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, CBM, WanFang Data, VIP and CNKI databases were searched online to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of calcium supplement in pregnancy for prevention of preeclampsia and relevant outcomes from inception to July 2018. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by RevMan 5.3 software. Results A total of 33 RCTs involving 29 234 subjects were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: compared with control group, the calcium supplement group was associated with lower preeclampsia (RR=0.48, 95%CI 0.38 to 0.62, P<0.000 01) and gestational hypertension (RR=0.65, 95%CI 0.55 to 0.77,P<0.000 01) incidence. The incidence of premature delivery, intrauterine growth retardation and severe preeclampsia in calcium supplement group was lower than that in placebo group, and the neonatal weight in calcium was higher than that in placebo group. However, there was no significant difference in the pregnancy cycle between the two groups. Conclusions Current evidence shows that calcium supplement is associated with lower risk of preeclampsia and gestational hypertension. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify the above conclusion.
Objective To assess the effectiveness and safety of autologous stem cell transplantation after high-dose chemotherapy in first-line treatment of follicular lymphoma. Method Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of autologous stem cell transplantation after high-dose chemotherapy in first-line treatment of follicular lymphoma were collected from MEDLINE (1990-2009), EMBASE (1990-2009), OVID (1990-2009), and the Cochrane Library (Issue 2, 2009), and the proceedings of ASH were searched manually. The methodological quality of included studies was evaluated, and data analysis was performed with software STATA 10.0 and RevMan 4.3. Result A total of 4 RCTs involving 941 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that overall survival rate (HR=0.82, 95%CI 0.49 to 1.15), event-free survival rate (HR=0.35, 95%CI 0.24 to 0.47), total remission rate (RR=0.35, 95%CI 0.96 to 1.30), and secondary malignant tumor incidence rate (RR=1.68, 95%CI 0.47 to 6.07). Conclusion According to the present evidences, autologous stem cell transplantation after high-dose chemotherapy can not improve overall survival rate and total remission rate, but can improve event-free survival rate, and do not increase secondary malignant tumor incidence rate. However, more high-quality, multiple-center, large-sample randomized controlled trials are required.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of death among the tumors in the whole world. Although new diagnostic techniques have been developed for nearly 20 years, the mortality is still high. Until now, no randomized controlled trial of chest x-ray and sputum cytology showed the improvement of the survival rate of lung cancer. Low-dose CT can screen more patients in early stage, however, overdiagnosis, cost and the quality of studies should be considered. Further studies of RCTs should be done to clarify these questions.
