Patients with unresectable cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) face a poor prognosis, and there are few effective treatment options for the disease. The standard of care for patients with locally advanced or metastatic CCA is chemotherapy with a gemcitabine-based doublet. Unfortunately, the clinical benefit obtained with these regimens is modest, with a median overall survival of about one year. For CCA that is chemotherapy-refractory or recurs after first-line chemotherapy, the treatment options are even more limited, and no relevant randomized controlled data are available. In recent years, molecular profiling has shed light on the molecular basis of CCA and identified subgroups of patients that might benefit from a personalized treatment approach. These efforts resulted in the recent FDA approval of the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibitor, pemigatinib, as a second-line treatment for patients with advanced CCA harboring an FGFR2-fusion or rearrangement. Several other targeted agents also are under evaluation in patients with CCA, of which the isocitrate dehydrogenase inhibitor has had the most promising results. Finally, immunotherapy is being explored as a new treatment approach for advanced CCA patients; indeed, the immune checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab can already be used to treat CCAs that are mismatch repair deficient. This review is a comprehensive overview of the treatment options for CCA and offers a glimpse into what the future could hold for these patients.

目的研究口腔黏膜恶性黑色素瘤的临床病理特征、治疗方式及预后情况,为临床提供参考。方法对19例原发性口腔黏膜恶性黑色素瘤患者的临床表现、治疗方式及随访结果进行回顾性分析。结果口腔黏膜恶性黑色素瘤患者病损表现为口腔黏膜黑色肿块,19例患者中,病损发生于牙龈者11例(58%),发生于腭部者7例(37%),发生于舌部者1例(5%);不同部位发生率差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。8例患者有区域淋巴结转移,转移率为42%,其中4例为多个部位转移,区域淋巴结转移部位共计15个;19例患者,仅手术治疗者3例,仅冷
牙周炎为牙菌斑导致的牙周组织炎症,可累及牙骨质、牙周膜及牙槽骨,由CD4+T细胞引发的免疫反应是牙周炎加重的关键因素,树突状细胞及核因子⁃κB受体活化因子配体(receptor activatorofNF⁃κB li⁃gand,RANKL)途径的激活是牙槽骨吸收的重要环节,促炎因子IFN⁃γ、TNF⁃α、IL⁃1β在牙周炎的发生发展中亦发挥重要作用。白细胞介素⁃37(interleukin⁃37,IL⁃37)为IL⁃1家族新发现的细胞因子,具有a~e共5个剪切变异体,其中由第4号外显
目前心脏骤停(Cardiac Arrest,CA)已成为全球性的重大公共卫生问题,发病率高,生存率低。体外心肺复苏(Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation,ECPR)作为一种新的支持治疗手段,可以缩短传统CPR的时间,提高CA患者的生存率。而在ECPR的发展中,动物模型的建立对于ECPR技术的深入探索和推广起着重要的作用。本文对目前ECPR动物模型的研究进行了回顾,主要包括以大鼠和猪为主的ECPR动物模型的动物选取、模型建立方法以及检测指标方面目前主流的研

目的探讨颌面颈部巨大神经纤维瘤的多学科诊疗模式,为临床提供参考。方法由口腔颌面外科主诊,麻醉科、ICU、血管外科、胸外科等多学科参与、共同制定治疗方案的2例颌面颈部巨大神经纤维瘤患者实施围术期全程管理的流程进行回顾性分析。结果2例患者的多学科治疗过程(麻醉⁃栓塞⁃协同手术⁃ICU复苏⁃术后管理)均按术前计划顺利实施,术中未出现多学科风险评估未预测到的不良事件或意外,均完成手术治疗,且未发生严重并发症。2例术后病理报告均为神经纤维瘤,患者伤口均I期愈合。结论多学科诊疗模式可在颌面颈部巨大神经纤维瘤的诊治中发
多项研究已经证明了心脏再同步化治疗(CRT)在慢性心力衰竭患者中的有益作用,但仍有20%~40%的患者不能从中获益。CRT无反应或反应不佳有多种潜在原因。左心室电极植入位点的的选择及植入方式是决定CRT疗效的关键性因素。因此,本文就左心室最佳起搏位点的选择机制与植入方案的进展做一综述。
糖尿病相关心力衰竭是临床常见的慢性疾病,其发病涉及多种机制。钠-葡萄糖协同转运蛋白-2(SGLT-2)抑制剂在多个糖尿病相关临床试验中观察到可以改善心力衰竭患者预后,成为心力衰竭治疗领域的值得关注的药物。本文将介绍糖尿病相关心力衰竭的发病机制、SGLT-2抑制剂治疗心力衰竭的可能机制及糖尿病相关心力衰竭的临床管理,重点介绍SGLT-2抑制剂在心力衰竭中的应用。
