Cancer: Towards a general theory of the target

General theories (GT) are reductionist explications of apparently independent facts. Here, in reviewing the literature, I develop a GT to simplify the cluttered landscape of cancer therapy targets by revealing they cluster parsimoniously according to only a few underlying principles. The first principle is that targets can be only exploited by either or both of two fundamentally different approaches: causality‐inhibition, and ‘acausal’ recognition of some marker or signature. Nonetheless, each approach must achieve both of two separate goals, efficacy (reduction in cancer burden) and selectivity (sparing of normal cells); if the mechanisms are known, this provides a definition of rational treatment. The second principle is target fragmentation, whereby the target may perform up to three categoric functions (cytoreduction, modulation, cytoprotection), potentially mediated by physically different target molecules, even on different cell types, or circulating freely. This GT remains incomplete until the minimal requirements for cure, or alternatively, proof that cure is impossible, become predictable.     

尺神经原位松解术与尺神经皮下前置术治疗肘管综合征近期疗效比较的回顾性研究

目的:比较尺神经原位松解术与尺神经皮下前置术治疗肘管综合征(CuTS)近期疗效。方法:本研究为回顾性研究,选取2016年7月～2017年7月期间我院二部收治的60例CuTS患者,根据手术方式的不同分为A组(n=32,尺神经原位松解术)和B组(n=28,尺神经皮下前置术),比较两组患者优良率、并发症、围术期指标、感觉运动功能(肌力、小指指端两点辨别觉、神经传导速度)以及DASH上肢功能障碍(DASH)评分。结果:B组术后12个月的优良率为92.86%(26/28),高于A组的68.75%(22/32)(P0.05)。两组术后并发症总发生率比较差异无统计学意义(P0.05)。两组术后12个月肌力、神经传导速度升高,且B组高于A组(P0.05),两组术后12个月小指指端两点辨别觉降低,且B组低于A组(P0.05)。两组术后3个月、术后6个月、术后12个月DASH评分呈下降趋势,且B组低于A组(P0.05)。B组手术切口长度、手术时间长于A组(P0.05),两组术后住院时间比较差异无统计学意义(P0.05)。结论:与尺神经原位松解术相比,尺神经皮下前置术治疗CuTS患者,虽然手术切口长度、手术时间相对较长,但其优良率更高,同时可有效恢复患者感觉运动功能及减轻其上肢功能障碍,且不增加并发症发生率,具有一定的临床应用价值。

目的:探讨沐舒坦联合布地奈德雾化治疗新生儿胎粪吸入综合征的临床效果及安全性。方法:选择2017年1月～2018年2月我院新生儿科收治的76例新生儿胎粪吸入综合征患儿,按照随机数字表法将其分成两组,每组38例。对照组患者采用布地奈德雾化治疗,观察组在对照组的治疗基础上加用沐舒坦治疗,分析和比较两组的治疗效果,患儿治疗前后动脉血气分析指标变化以及预后情况。结果:治疗后,观察组临床总有效率明显高于对照组,观察组呼吸困难缓解时间、肺部湿罗音消失时间、发绀消失时间、血氧饱和度恢复时间均显著较对照组短(P0.05)。两组患儿治疗后PaCO_2、FIO_2、OI均较治疗前降低,PaO_2均较治疗前上升,其中观察组PaCO_2、FIO_2、OI明显低于对照组,PaO_2高于对照组,上述差异均具有统计学意义(P0.05)。观察组总并发症发生率显著低于对照组(P0.05),患儿治愈率显著高于对照组(P0.05),两组死亡率比较差异无统计学意义(P0.05)。结论:与布地奈德雾化治疗相比,沐舒坦联合布地奈德雾化治疗新生儿胎粪吸入综合征患儿可以更有效缩短临床症状改善时间,改善患儿肺功能及预后,且安全性更高。     

Repellent efficacy of essential oils and plant extracts against Tribolium castaneum and Plodia interpunctella

This study was conducted to investigate the repellent efficacy of essential oils (Origanum vulgare, Pimpinella anisum, and Tanacetum cinerariifolium) and four plant extracts (Agastache rugosa, Capsicum annuum, Citrus reticulata, and Ginkgo biloba) against Tribolium castaneum (adults and larvae) and Plodia interpunctella (larvae). Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis revealed the presence of carvacrol, anethole, and jasmolin I as the predominant constituent in O. vulgare, P. anisum, and T. cinerariifolium, respectively. Furthermore, ethyl hexopyranoside, 9,12‐octadecadienoic acid, cyclopentanol, and 2‐cresol were identified in A. rugosa, C. annuum, C. reticulata, and G. biloba, respectively. The repellent efficacy of each essential oil, plant extract, and the combination of oils was evaluated using a specially designed cylinder trap for 120 h. Among the three oils, O. vulgare and T. cinerariifolium had greatest repellent efficacy against P. interpunctella larvae. T. cinerariifolium exhibited effective repellence against the adults and larvae of T. castaneum. Therefore, O. vulgare (O) and T. cinerariifolium (T) were selected for further investigation of combined effects. Two essential oils were mixed in three different ratios of OT1 (1:3), OT2 (1:1), and OT3 (3:1). The repellent efficacies of OT1 and OT2 against the adults of T. castaneum were significantly greater than that of OT3. OT1 was effective against the larvae of T. castaneum, whereas OT2 was effective against the larvae of P. interpunctella. OT1 enhanced the repellent efficacy by approximately five times against larvae of T. castaneum, compared with that of T. cinerariifolium. Overall, OT1 was selected as the best repellent substance against all the tested insects.     

不同体质量指数对腹腔镜结直肠癌切除术患者临床疗效和远期预后的影响

摘要 目的：研究不同体质量指数（BMI）对腹腔镜结直肠癌切除术患者临床疗效和远期预后的影响。方法：将从2014年1月～2016年1月于我院接受腹腔镜结直肠癌切除术治疗的110例患者纳入研究。将所有受试者根据BMI的差异分作正常组（18.6 kg/m²≦BMI<23.0 kg/m²）35例、超重组（23.0 kg/m²≦BMI<25.0 kg/m²）53例、肥胖组（BMI≧25.0 kg/m²）22例。分析三组患者各项基线资料,临床疗效,术后并发症发生情况,远期预后等方面的差异。结果：三组患者各项基线资料比较差异均不明显（均P＞0.05）。肥胖组手术时长为（268.01±36.14）min,均明显高于正常组、超重组的（211.73±30.56）min、（224.12±34.87）min（均P＜0.05）;三组术中失血量、肛门排气时间以及住院康复时间对比均不明显（均P＞0.05）。三组患者术后肺部感染、下肢静脉血栓、切口感染以及吻合口出血发生率对比均不明显（均P＞0.05）。正常组5年生存率为45.71%（16/35）,超重组5年生存率为47.17%（25/53）,肥胖组5年生存率为45.45%（10/22）,三组比较差异无统计学意义（均P＞0.05）。结论：不同BMI对腹腔镜结直肠癌切除术患者的手术时长具有一定影响,但和远期预后无关,值得临床重点关注。
