Methods： The clinical data of 206 advanced NSCLC patients who were treated with CM and Western medicine in Beijing Cancer Hospital from April 1999 to July 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. Long-term survivors were defined as OS ≥ 3 years after treatment with CM and chemotherapy. Twenty-eight patients had OS ≥ 3 years, 178 had OS 〈 3 years, and all clinical data were statistically analyzed with the Cox model. Variables were gender, age, smoking status, performance status （PS） score, pathological type, clinical stage, first-line chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and use of CM. Univariate survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank sequential inspection. Multivariate survival analysis was used to analyze the meaningful factors of univariate survival analysis with the Cox model. Results： The survival rate of patients with OS ≥ 3 years was 13.6% （28/206）. Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that PS score, clinical stage, disease control rate to first-line chemotherapy, and use of CM were independent factors of long- term OS （all P〈0.05）. However, gender, age, smoking, and use of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine- kinase inhibitor were not significant （P〉0.05）. Conclusion： PS score, clinical stage, disease control rate to first- line chemotherapy, and use of CM are probably independent prognostic factors for long-term OS in patients with advanced NSCLC.展开更多
文摘癌症相关性疲乏(cancer-related fatigue,CRF)是癌症患者的最常见症状,它可以是手术、放疗及化疗的不良反应,也可以是一些无疾病状态的癌症患者的常见症状,还可以是肿瘤进展患者的临床表现。CRF的发病机制仍不是十分清楚,国外许多学者认为,CRF的发生与癌症患者的炎性细胞因子增多有关。评估CRF最简单的方法是使用美国国家癌症网(National Comprehensive Cancer Network,NCCN)推荐的疲乏单项直观模拟标度尺来测量。关于CRF的临床干预策略,NCCN将其分为三部分:积极治疗患者的干预,长期随访患者的干预和临终关怀患者的干预。具体措施有:对患者及家庭成员进行疲乏的教育和咨询、采取一般应对策略和进行具体的干预(包括非药物干预和药物干预)。
