RÉSUMÉ

BACKGROUND@#Adjuvant (chemo)radiotherapy (A(C)RT) may be an important supplement to surgery for extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (EHCC). However, whether all patients would achieve benefits from A(C)RT and which adjuvant regimen, adjuvant radiotherapy (ART) or adjuvant chemoradiotherapy (ACRT), would be preferred, are still undetermined. The low incidence of EHCC makes it difficult to carry out randomized controlled trials (RCTs); therefore, almost all clinical studies on radiotherapy are retrospective. We have conducted a meta-analysis of these retrospective studies.@*METHODS@#We conducted a meta-analysis of current retrospective studies using PubMed, Embase, and ClinicalTrials databases. All studies published in English that were related to A(C)RT and which analyzed overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), or locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRFS) were included. Estimated hazard ratios (HRs) were calculated for OS, DFS, and LRFS.@*RESULTS@#Data from eight studies including 685 patients were included. Our analysis showed that A(C)RT significantly improved OS (HR 0.69, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.48-0.97, P=0.03), DFS (HR 0.60, 95% CI 0.47-0.76, P<0.0001), and LRFS (HR 0.27, 95% CI 0.17-0.41, P<0.00001) of EHCC overall. In subgroups, patients with microscopically positive resection margin (R1) could achieve a benefit from A(C)RT (HR 0.44, 95% CI 0.27-0.72, P=0.001). No statistically OS difference was observed in negative resection margin (R0) subgroup (HR 0.98, 95% CI 0.30-3.19, P=0.98).Significant OS benefit was found in patients who received concurrent ACRT (HR 0.40, 95% CI 0.26-0.62, P<0.0001), while the result of ART without chemotherapy showed no significant benefit (HR 1.14, 95% CI 0.29-4.50, P=0.85). In the distal cholangiocarcinoma subgroup, no significant difference was seen when ACRT and ART were included (HR 0.61, 95% CI 0.14-2.72, P=0.52), but a significant difference was seen when analyzing the concurrent ACRT only (HR 0.29, 95% CI 0.13-0.64, P=0.002).@*CONCLUSIONS@#A(C)RT may improve OS, DFS, and LRFS in EHCC patients, especially in those with R1 resection margins. ACRT may be superior to ART especially in distal patients.

RÉSUMÉ

Objective To investigate the changes of plasma miRNA-124 and miRNA-765 levels in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI).Methods Thirty sTBI patients,admitted to our hospital from January 2009 to March 2010,and 24 healthy volunteers were included in the study.Quantitative RT-PCR was employed to determine the levels of miRNA-124 and miRNA-765 in the plasma and traumatic brain tissues at different time points after injury; receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to explore the potential of miRNA-124 and miRNA-765 as diagnostic TBI biomarkers.Results MiRNA-124 level dominantly increased 6 h after TBI and continued to rise 12 and 24 h,while miRNA-765 reached its peak level at 12 h after TBI in patients with sTBI,enjoying significant differences as compared with those in the matched healthy volunteers(t=2.41,P=0.001).miR-124 level (t=2.686,P=0.001) and miR-765 level (t=2.673,P=0.000) in the contusion and laceration tissues after sTBI predominantly increased as compared with those in the normal brain tissues surrounding to the contusion and laceration tissues,with significant difference.ROC curve analysis indicated that miR-124 and miR-765 were good diagnostic markers of sTBI (area under the curve:0.98 and 0.79).Conclusion Plasma-derived miR-124 and miR-765 change significantly,which could be employed as diagnostic markers for sTBI.

RÉSUMÉ

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the factors affecting extracellular glycerol (Gly) in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (STBI).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Perilesional extracellular Gly and cerebral blood flow (CBF) in 53 patients with STBI were consecutively monitored. Simultaneously, the intracranial pressure (ICP) and cerebral perfusion pressure (CCP) were monitored. The hourly minimum of CCP and CBF and the hourly maximum of ICP levels were matched with the hourly Gly. Gly values were divided into several groups according to regional ICP (less than 15 mm Hg or larger than 15 mm Hg), CCP (less than 70 mm Hg or larger than 70 mm Hg), CBF (less than 50 AU or 50-150 AU) and the outcomes (death or persistent vegetative state group, severe or moderate disability group, and good recovery group).</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>In comparison with the severe or moderate disability group, the Gly concentration of the death or persistent vegetative state group increased significantly, but CBF and CCP decreased significantly. In comparison with the good recovery group, the Gly concentration of the severe or moderate disability group increased significantly, but CBF and CCP decreased significantly. The Gly concentrations in patients with ICP larger than 15 mm Hg, CCP less than 70 mm Hg and CBF less than 50 AU were respectively higher than those of patients with ICP less than 15 mm Hg, CCP larger than 70 mm Hg and 50 AU less than CBF less than 150 AU. In patients with diffuse axial injury, the mean Gly concentration was (201.17+/-55.00) micromol/L, which was significantly higher than that of the patients with epidural hematoma (n equal to 7, 73.26+/-8.37, P less than 0.05) or subdural hematoma (n equal to 9, 114.67+/-62.88, P less than 0.05), but it did not increase significantly when compared with those in patients with contusion(n equal to 24, 167.48+/-52.63).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Gly can be taken as a marker for degradation of membrane phospholipids and ischemia, which reflects the severity of primary or secondary insult.</p>

RÉSUMÉ

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effect of mild hypothermia on glucose metabolism and glycerol of brain tissue in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (STBI) using clinical microdialysis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thirty-one patients with STBI(GCS less than or equal to 8) were randomly divided into hypothermic group(Group A) and control group(Group B). Microdialysis catheters were inserted into the cerebral cortex of perilesional and normal brain tissue. All samples were analyzed using CMA microdialysis analyzer.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>In comparison with the control group, lactate/glucose ratio(L/G), lactate/pyruvate ratio(L/P) and glycerol(Gly) in perilensional tissue were significantly decreased; L/P in normal brain tissue was significantly decreased. In control group, L/G, L/P and Gly in perilensional tissue were higher than that in normal brain tissue. In the hypothermic group, L/P in perilensional tissue was higher than that in relative normal brain.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Mild hypothermia protects brain tissues by decreasing L/G, L/P and Gly in perilensional tissue and L/P in "normal brain" tissues. The energy crisis and membrane phospholipid degradation in perilensional tissue are easier to happen after traumatic brain injury, and mild hypothermia protects brain better in perilensional tissue than in normal brain tissue.</p>

RÉSUMÉ

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the changes of extracellular glucose (Glu), lactate (Lac), and the ratio of lactate/pyruvate (L/P) in patients with traumatic brain injury under different body temperatures.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Catheters for microdialysis were punctured into the penumbra zone of injured brain tissue (INJ), relatively normal brain tissue (NOR), and abdominal subcutaneous tissue (ABD) respectively in 51 patients to collect the fluid. The perfusion rate was 0.3 microl/min and one tube of fluid was collected for each hour. The average collection time was (67.10 +/- 18.27) hours. Concentrations of Glu, Lac, and pyruvate (Pyru) in the fluid were analyzed using CMA microdialysis analyzer. Patients were divided into 7 groups according to their rectal temperature (RT) values, which were RT < 33.0 degrees C, 33.0-33.9 degrees C, 34.0-34.9 degrees C, 35.0-35.9 degrees C, 36.0-36.9 degrees C, 37.0-37.9 degrees C, and > or = 38.0 degrees C.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The concentration of Glu in ABD was significantly higher than that in the brain tissue (P < 0.05). The Glu in NOR were significantly higher and the highest in 33.0 degrees C compared with that in the INJ when RT < 36.0 degrees C (P < 0.05). The concentration of Lac in ABD was significantly lower than that in brain (P < 0.05). The Lac in NOR were much higher than that in INJ when RT < 35.0 degrees C or > or = 37.0 degrees C (P < 0.05). The ratio of L/P decreased along with the increase of body temperature (P < 0.001). The ratio of L/P significantly decreased in an order of INJ > ABD > NOR when RT was lower than 33.0 degrees C, which was changed to the order of NOR > INJ > ABD when RT was higher than 34.0 degrees C.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Treatment of hypothermia may play more protective role when RT were between 33-34 degrees C or 36-37 degrees C.</p>
