Abstract Objective:The purpose of this study is to retrospectively observe the clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of docetaxel hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) combined with endostar in treatment of malignant ascites. Methods:56 cases of malignant ascites admitted to Zhejiang Hospital from July 2019 and October 2020 had received no less than second-line chemotherapy. The observation group (n = 29) was treated with endostar 60mg d1,4,7 Q3W intraperitoneal injection combined with docetaxel 60mg/m2 d4 HIPEC Q3W for 2 cycles. The control group (n = 27) was just treated with docetaxel 60mg/m2 d1 HIPEC Q3W for 2 cycles. The general clinical data and qualitative data of the treatment results were processed by SPSS26.0 using χ2 test, and quantitative data were processed by t test. When P < 0.05, statistical data can be considered statistically significant.Results:There were significant differences between the observation group and the control group in objective response rate (ORR) (65.5% vs 37.0%,P=0.033),in the improvement rate of KPS (48.3% vs 22.2%, P=0.042),also in the median control time (57dvs 45d,P=0.027). The incidence of III to IV adverse reactions was low, and no treatment-related death was observed. There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups.Conclusion:Endostar combined with docetaxel HIPEC has good clinical effect on malignant ascites and can improve patients’ quality of life, and the adverse reactions can be tolerated.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of sequential butylphthalide therapy combined with dual antiplatelet therapy in the treatment of elderly patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI). Methods: One hundred and twenty-two elderly patients with ACI who were admitted to the department of neurology of our hospital at May 2016-August 2018 were selected grouped into a control group and an observation group by random number table method, 61 in each group. On the basis of conventional treatment, the patients in the control group were given dual antiplatelet therapy (aspirin enteric-coated tablets + clopidogrel bisulfate tablets), while the patients in the observation group were given sequential butylphthalide therapy on the basis of the control group. The clinical effects of the two groups were compared after four weeks of treatment, and the changes of National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), ADL score, plasma 3-mercaptopyruvate sulphurtransferase (3-MST) and Amyloid β42 (Aβ42) levels and the occurrence of adverse reactions during treatment were recorded. Results: The clinical efficacy of the observation group was better than that of the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in NIHSS and ADL scores between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05). After treatment, the NIHSS and ADL scores of the observation group were better than those of the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in plasma levels of 3-MST and AB42 between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05). The level of plasma 3-MST in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, and the level of plasma Aβ42 was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). No serious adverse reactions occurred during the treatment period in both groups. Conclusion: Butylphthalide sequential therapy combined with dual antiplatelet therapy is effective in the treatment of elderly ACI. It can effectively improve the plasma level of 3-MST and decrease the plasma level of Aβ42, which is conducive to improving the living ability and neurological function of patients and has high safety. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.36.4.1831 How to cite this:Wo X, Han J, Wang J, Wang X, Liu X, Wang Z.
