Background: Fibrobronchoscopy is a common adjunct tool that requires anesthesia and is widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of various respiratory diseases. However, current anesthesia methods, such as spray, nebulized inhalation, and cricothyroid membrane puncture, have their own advantages and disadvantages. Recently, studies have shown that bronchoscopic direct-view glottis anesthesia is a simple and inexpensive method that shortens the examination time and provides excellent anesthetic results.

This study aimed to investigate the effect and mechanism of puerarin on the invasion and metastasis of A549 lung cancer cell line.
Methods: A medium containing puerarin was prepared according to the gradient concentration, and 10, 20, and 40 µmol/L were selected as the experimental group (low, medium, and high concentration groups, respectively) according to the cytotoxicity experiment.
Article Synopsis
- * It involved 44 patients, with half receiving the combination treatment and the other half receiving capecitabine alone; results showed that the combination group had significantly better outcomes in terms of progression-free survival, objective response rate, and disease control rate.
- * Both treatment options were well-tolerated, but the combination therapy led to a higher incidence of mild bleeding, suggesting it may offer more benefits while maintaining a similar safety profile compared to capecitabine alone.
Background: Adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma (ACP) is a benign but maldevelopmental tumor with a high recurrence rate.
Objective: Theaim of this study was to investigate the dysregulated biological molecules that play important roles in the recurrence of ACP.
Methods: We first performed microarray analysis on tumor samples from two pediatric patients with recurrent ACP and from two pediatric ACP patients without recurrence after a one-year follow-up.
