The effect of salt-water bath in the management of treatment-related peripheral neuropathy in cancer patients receiving taxane and platinum-based treatment

ObjectivesIn a clinical setting, patients have been observed to complain of discomfort and to discontinue treatment because of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. This experimental study was conducted to determine the effect of a salt-water bath in the management of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.MethodOne hundred and three patients who received taxane and platinum-based chemotherapy due to cancer and developed peripheral neuropathy associated with the treatment between December 2018 and June 2020 were included in the study. The patients were assigned to the control and experimental groups (1-warm salt-water and 2-cold salt-water) following the randomization checklist. While control groups did not receive any interventions, the patients in the salt-water group were asked to apply warm (41 °C) or cold-water (23–26 °C) baths to their hands/feet for 30 min every other day for 14 days. The data were collected at the beginning of the study and at the end of its first and second weeks using the Patient Information Form and National Cancer Institute (NCI)-CTCAE v5.0 toxicity criteria as well as the EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC QLQ-CIPN20 quality of life scales.ResultsThe patients had a mean age of 55.6 ± 10.3, and most of them were treated following a breast cancer diagnosis. At the beginning of the study, Grade 3 peripheral neuropathy severity and quality of life scores of the cold/warm salt-water and control groups were similar. Due to repeated follow-ups, it was determined that the peripheral neuropathy severity decreased and the quality of life scores increased statistically significantly in the patients in the cold salt-water bath group compared to the control group.ConclusionThis study's results suggest that a cold salt-water bath can be an effective approach in managing the development of peripheral neuropathy due to taxane and platinum-based treatment.

Heparanase-1 is downregulated in chemoradiotherapy orbital rhabdomyosarcoma and relates with tumor growth as well as angiogenesis

AIM:To determine the role of heparanase-1(HPSE-1)in orbital rhabdomyosarcoma(RMS),and to investigate the feasibility of HPSE-1 targeted therapy for RMS.METHODS:Immunohistochemistry was performed to analyze HPSE-1 expression in 51 cases of orbital RMS patients(including 28 cases of embryonal RMS and 23 cases of alveolar RMS),among whom there were 27 treated and 24 untreated with preoperative chemoradiotherapy.In vitro,studies were conducted to examine the effect of HPSE-1 silencing on RMS cell proliferation and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs).RD cells(an RMS cell line)and HUVECs were infected with HPSE-1 sh RNA lentivirus at a multiplicity of infection(MOI)of 10 and 30 separately.Real-time PCR and Western blot were applied to detect the m RNA and protein expression levels of HPSE-1.Cell viability of treated or control RD cells was evaluated by cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)assay.Matrigel tube formation assay was used to evaluate the effect of HPSE-1 RNAi on the tube formation of HUVECs.RESULTS:Immunohistochemistry showed that the expression rate of HPSE-1 protein was 92.9%in orbital embr yonal RMS and 91.3%in orbital alveolar RMS.Tissue from alveolar orbital RMS did not show relatively stronger staining than that from the embryonal orbital RMS.However,despite the types of RMS,comparing the cases treated chemoradiotherapy with those untreated,we have observed that chemoradiotherapy resulted in weaker staining in patients’tissues.The expression levels of HPSE-1 declined significantly in both the m RNA and protein levels in HPSE-1 sh RNA transfected RD cells.The CCK-8 assay showed that lentivirus-mediated HPSE-1 silencing resulted in significantly reduced RD cells viability in vitro.Silencing HPSE-1 expression also inhibited VEGF-induced tube formation of HUVECs in Matrigel.CONCLUSION:HPSE-1 silencing may be a promising therapy for the inhibition of orbital RMS progression.     

Effect and Safety of Tongyan Spray (通咽喷雾剂) on Hyoid Motion in Patients with Dysphagia after Ischemic Stroke

Objective: To observe the effects and safety of Tongyan Spray (通咽喷雾剂) on the range and time of hyoid motion in patients with ischemic post-stroke dysphagia. Methods: Seventy-two patients with ischemic post-stroke dysphagia were selected and randomly assigned to a treatment group (36 cases) and a control group (36 cases) by a random number table from January 2013 to October 2014. All patients swallowed 4 kinds of barium meals with different traits respectively, and each patient underwent video fluoroscopy (VF) examination twice. In the treatment group, Tongyan Spray was sprayed to the pharynx on both sides and the middle part once respectively. The spray was applied 30 min before the second examination. Purified water at room temperature was used as placebo in the control group. The changes in the range and time of hyoid motion in both groups were observed before and after treatment. Results: Six patients dropped out in each group, and 60 patients completed the study and were included in the final analysis. Significant improvement was observed in the range of superior hyoid excursion distance and the time of hyoid motion in the treatment group compared with the control group (P<0.05). There were no obvious adverse reactions observed in oral mucosa in both groups during the whole study. Conclusion: Tongyan Spray was an effective and safe medicine for improving swallowing function in patients with ischemic post-stroke dysphagia.

急性缺血性脑卒中血管介入治疗方法和装置的研究进展

机械血栓切除术可治疗伴大血管闭塞的前循环和后循环急性缺血性脑卒中。机械血栓切除术失败后仍应进行支架植入术;接触抽吸术与支架取栓术的优劣难分仲伯;伴大血管闭塞的动脉粥样硬化性前循环急性缺血性脑卒中,血管成形术和(或)支架置入术要优于支架取栓术;支架取栓术加动脉内溶栓治疗有叠加效应,但机械血栓切除术加静脉溶栓则无叠加效应;远程缺血预处理和替罗非班有减少手术并发症的功效;紫杉醇洗脱支架和新型支架是值得推广的新型血管内治疗装置。
