Objective To systematically evaluate the effectiveness and safety of zoledronic acid combined with radiotherapy in treating bone metastasis of malignant tumor. Methods Such databases as PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library (Issue 10, 2012), CBM, CNKI, VIP and WanFang Data were searched to collect randomized clinical trials (RCTs) on bone metastasis of malignant tumor from inception to October, 2012. References of included studies were also retrieved. Two reviewers independently screened studies according to exclusion and inclusion criteria, extracted data, and assessed the methodological quality. Then, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.1 software. Results Twenty nine trials were included involving 2 021 patients. The results of meta-analysis showed that, compared with the radiotherapy alone group, zoledronic acid combined with radiotherapy improved the effectiveness rate of pain relieving at the end of treatment (OR=3.08, 95%CI 2.30 to 4.12, Plt;0.000 01), the effectiveness rate of pain relieving two weeks after treatment (OR=3.39, 95%CI 2.52 to 4.56, Plt;0.000 01), the quality of life (OR=2.74, 95%CI 1.66 to 4.52, Plt;0.000 01) and the ability of movement (OR=2.96, 95%CI 2.16 to 4.05, Plt;0.000 01). Zoledronic acid combined with radiotherapy also reduced the incidence of new bone metastasis (OR=0.21, 95%CI 0.10 to 0.45, Plt;0.000 1) and the incidence rate of bone-related events (OR=0.17, 95%CI 0.03 to 0.92, P=0.04). The adverse reactions of zoledronic acid combined with radiotherapy such as fever (OR=11.92, 95%CI 6.31 to 22.48, Plt;0.000 01) and hypocalcaemia (OR=8.82, 95%CI 1.61 to 48.36, P=0.01), significantly increased. Conclusion Compared with radiotherapy alone, zoledronic acid combined with radiotherapy can relieve bone metastatic pain, effectively enhance patients’ ability of movement, improve quality of life, and decrease new bone metastasis and the occurrence of bone-related events.

Methods The dose distributions for each beam in IMRT plans were measured with 0 degree gantry angle and actual gantry angle respectively. The γ percentage pass rate (according to 3% 3 mm) for each beam under each angle condition was obtained by the comparison between the measured dose distribution and the calculated dose map from the treatment planning system which was treated as the reference distribution. Then the absolute dose at the isocenter for each plan was measured at each angle condition and was analyzed. Results The variations of γ percentage pass rates between the two types of measurements were randomly distributed, and the deviations for 96.9% beams were less than±2.5%. The differences between absolute doses for 85.7% beams were less than±2% and the biggest deviation was -4.75%. Conclusion Verification of IMRT plans for the radiotherapy quality assurance using 2-Dimensional detector arrays in 0 degree gantry angle is safe and reliable.

The MLC-based step and shoot IMRT(sIMRT) plan needs much more segment member to meet clinical aims. In this study, several sIMRT plans using different segment number for postoperative rectal cancer were compared to find out the most reasonable segment number setting. Methods Ten patients with rectal carcinoma underwent postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy for rectal cancer from April to August 2010 were selected. For each patient, the angle of field, the prescription expected and the physical parameters optimized were kept the same, while only the number of segments was changed in sIMRT plans. The dose volume histogram-based parameters [conformity index (CI) and homogeneous index (HI)] and other parameters concerned were compared and analyzed. Results The indexes of dosimetry associated with the targets and risk organs showed no significant statistical difference among the 4 sIMRT plans with different segment numbers. The index CI of PTV in the sIMRT plan with 15 segments (CI 0.74±0.06) was less than that in the sIMRT plan with 25 segments (CI 0.82±0.03), the sIMRT plan with 40 segments plan (CI 0.81±0.06), and the sIMRT plan with 60 segments (CI 0.84±0.03) (Plt;0.05). There were significant differences in MU among the sIMRT plans with 15 segments (average MU: 458±56) , with 25 segments (average MU: 559±62 ), and with 40 segments (average MU: 614±74)or with the 60 segments (average MU: 622±82 (Plt;0.05). The more segments meant more MU and more irradiation time. Conclusion The sIMRT plan for patients of rectal cancer to receive postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy may require at least 25 segments to balance the accepted dose results and efficient delivering.

Objective To study the curative effects of keloid by operation combined with postoperative β radiation and silicone gel sheeting. Methods From 1996 to 2002, 598 patients with keloid(243 males, 355 females, aging 15-55 years with an average of 28.6 years) were treated by integrated therapy. Their disease courses were from 6 months to 6 years. The keloid area ranged from 1.0 cm×1.5 cm~8.0 cm×15 cm. First, keloid was removed by operation, and then the wounds weresutured directly(group suture) or covered with skin graft(group graft). In groupsuture, the operational sites were managed by β ray radiotherapy 24-48 hours after operation. The total doses of radiation were 12-15 Gy, 5 times 1 week(group suture A) and 10 times 2 weeks (group suture B). Radiotherapy was not taken until stitches were taken out in group graft, and then the same methods were adopted as group suture B. After radiotherapy, silicone gel sheeting was used in 325 cases for 3-6 months. Results All patients were followed up for 12-18 months. (1) The overall efficacy was 91.3% in group suture A(n=196), and 95.8% in group suture B (n=383), respectively. There was significant difference between the two groups(Plt;0.01). (2) Radiotherapy was of no effect in 6 cases of group graft(n=19). (3) Silicone gel sheeting had effectivenessin 185 cases. Silicone gel sheeting had no obvious effect on the overall efficacy, but it could improve the quality of texture and color of skin. Conclusion By use of integrated methods to treat keloid, if the wound can be sutured directly, skin grafting should not be adopted. The results in group suture B are better than those in group suture A; silicone gel sheeting should be used as possible.
