Many epidemiological studies have shown inconsistent effects of statins on lung cancer, but some observational studies have showed that statins had protective effect on lung cancer among elderly people. So we preformed this meta-analysis to find whether statins were chemopreventive. Methods: We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE and Web of Science databases from inception to September, 2013. A total of 23 studies were selected, including 15 observational studies and 8 randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Both fixed and random-effects models were used to calculate pooled estimates in primary and sensitivity analyses. We used Q and 12 statistics to assess statistical heterogeneity, and evaluated publication bias by Begg's test and Egger's test. Results: No association between statins and lung cancer risk was identified either in the meta-analysis among RCTs [relative risk (RR): 0.95, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 0.85-1.06] or observational studies (RR: 0.89, 95% CI: 0.77-1.04). We also selected 6 observational studies that all researched on elderly people. The result of meta-analysis showed that there was still no protective effect between statins and lung cancer among elderly people (RR: 1.03, 95% CI: 0.96-1.11). Conclusions: Our results did not support a protective effect of statins on the overall lung cancer risk and the lung cancer risk among elderly people. More well-designed RCTs are needed to enhance our understanding of the chemopreventive effect of statins on lung cancer.展开更多

However, the results were conflict. To clarify the impact of polymorphisms of "XPA", "XPC", "XPD/ERCC2", on lung cancer risk, a meta-analysis was performed in this study. Methods: The electronic databases PubMed and Embase were retrieved for studies included in this meta-analysis by "XPA", "XPC", "XPD/ERCC2", "lung", "cancer/neoplasm/tumor/carcinoma", "polymorphism" (An upper date limit of October, 31, 2009). A meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship among XPA, XPC and XPD polymorphism and lung cancer risks. Results: A total of 31 publications retrieved from Pubmed and Embase included in this study. XPC A939C CC genotype increased lung cancer risk in total population (recessive genetic model: OR=1.23, 95% CI:1.05-1.44; homozygote comparison: OR=1.21,95%CI:1.02-1.43and CC vs. CA contrast: OR=1.25,95%CI:1.06-1.48), except in Asians. XPD A751C, 751C allele and CC genotype also increased lung cancer risk in total population and in Caucasians (recessive genetic model: Total population: OR=1.20, 95%CI:1.07-1.35). No significant correlation was found between XPD A751C and lung cancer risk in Asians and African Americans. XPD G312A AA genotype increased lung cancer risk in total population, in Asians and Caucasians(recessive genetic model: Total population: OR=1.20, 95%CI: 1.06-1.36). No significant association was found between XPA G23A, XPC C499T, XPD C156A and lung cancer risk. Conclusion: Our results suggest that the polymorphisms in XPC and XPD involve in lung cancer risks. XPA polymorphisms is less related to lung cancer risk.展开更多

We therefore conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the predictive role of PD-L1 in NSCLC patients. We systematically collected relevant studies from Pub Med, Embase, Web of Science and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. The pooled hazard ratios(HRs) with 95% confidence intervals(CIs) for overall survival(OS), and odd ratios(ORs) with 95% CIs for clinicopathologic factors were calculated. A total of 15 studies involving 3605 patients were included in this meta-analysis. The results showed no prognostic role of PD-L1 in the whole patients(HR=1.60, 95% CI: 0.88–2.89, P=0.123). Subgroup analysis showed that PD-L1 was associated with decreased OS in Asian patients(HR=2.00, 95% CI: 1.55–2.57, P〈0.001). Among all the clinicopathologic factors, PD-L1 overexpression was significantly in relevance with poor tumor cell differentiation(HR=1.84, 95% CI: 1.49–2.28, P〈0.001), late stage(HR=1.21, 95% CI: 1.02–1.43, P=0.026) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase(ALK) translocation(HR=2.63, 95% CI: 1.08–6.40, P=0.034), but not with other factors. In conclusion, our meta-analysis demonstrated that PD-L1 has a prognostic role in Asian patients with NSCLC.展开更多

The present meta-analysis was performed to review the recent advances with the selective oral EGFR-TK inhibitor gefitinib among EGFR mutation positive patients with NSCLC. Methods: Using the keywords “gefitinib” and “lung cancer” MEDLINE was searched. The primary reports of interest were the randomized controlled trials in NSCL published in peer-reviewed journals. Three recent studies concerning the effect of gefitinib in NSCLC were identified to be relevant for the meta-analysis based on their similarity in terms of study design. PFS and objective response rate (ORR) in gefitinib and platinum/taxane combination were compared by the Hazard ratio (HR) or Odds Ratio (OR) of meta-analysis. Results: The HR (95%CI) of the meta-analysis of 0.41 (0.34 - 0.49) demonstrated that in patients EFGR mutation positive patients, PFS was significantly longer among those who received gefitinib compared to platin derivative/taxane combination. Furthermore, OR of the meta-analysis for ORR was 3.83 (2.72 - 5.40). While hematological toxicity was observed in the majority of the taxane/platinum group, major adverse events in gefitinib patients were skin rashes/acnea, dry skin, elevated liver enzymes and diarrhea. Conclusions: This meta-analysis strongly confirms the efficacy and better tolerability of gefitinib in EGFR positive NSCLC, and the importance of EGFR mutation testing in order to plan first-line treatment in routine clinical practice in NSCLC.展开更多

Data for the predictive value of miRNA let-7, miR-21, and miR-205 are inconclusive. The aim of the present analysis was therefore to evaluate the expression and the prognostic role of the above mentioned miRNAs?in early-stage?(T1N0) NSCLC patients. Methods: Quantification of let-7g, miR-21, and miR-205 expression was carried out into 105 early-stage NSCLC by quantitative Real Time-PCR (qRT-PCR).?Results: a significant association between the low miR-205 expression and ADC histotype (p??0.0001) compared to SCC?was found;moreover, survival analysis showed thattumors with a high?miR-205 expression had a significantly shorter mean PFS and OS compared to the patients with a low expression of this miRNA (p = 0.02 and p = 0.03, respectively). No other statistically significant correlations were observed between the analysed miRNAs and the main clinico-pathological characteristics of the NSCLC patients. Conclusion: The results indicated that miR-205 could represent a useful marker in the prognostic management of the early-stage (T1N0) NSCLC patients.展开更多

文摘Objective: A number of studies have reported the association of "XPA", "XPC", "XPD/ERCC2" gene polymorphisms with lung cancer risk. However, the results were conflict. To clarify the impact of polymorphisms of "XPA", "XPC", "XPD/ERCC2", on lung cancer risk, a meta-analysis was performed in this study. Methods: The electronic databases PubMed and Embase were retrieved for studies included in this meta-analysis by "XPA", "XPC", "XPD/ERCC2", "lung", "cancer/neoplasm/tumor/carcinoma", "polymorphism" (An upper date limit of October, 31, 2009). A meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship among XPA, XPC and XPD polymorphism and lung cancer risks. Results: A total of 31 publications retrieved from Pubmed and Embase included in this study. XPC A939C CC genotype increased lung cancer risk in total population (recessive genetic model: OR=1.23, 95% CI:1.05-1.44; homozygote comparison: OR=1.21,95%CI:1.02-1.43and CC vs. CA contrast: OR=1.25,95%CI:1.06-1.48), except in Asians. XPD A751C, 751C allele and CC genotype also increased lung cancer risk in total population and in Caucasians (recessive genetic model: Total population: OR=1.20, 95%CI:1.07-1.35). No significant correlation was found between XPD A751C and lung cancer risk in Asians and African Americans. XPD G312A AA genotype increased lung cancer risk in total population, in Asians and Caucasians(recessive genetic model: Total population: OR=1.20, 95%CI: 1.06-1.36). No significant association was found between XPA G23A, XPC C499T, XPD C156A and lung cancer risk. Conclusion: Our results suggest that the polymorphisms in XPC and XPD involve in lung cancer risks. XPA polymorphisms is less related to lung cancer risk.

文摘Accumulating studies explored the clinicopathologic and prognostic value of programmed death ligand-1(PD-L1) in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC), but the results were controversial. We therefore conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the predictive role of PD-L1 in NSCLC patients. We systematically collected relevant studies from Pub Med, Embase, Web of Science and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. The pooled hazard ratios(HRs) with 95% confidence intervals(CIs) for overall survival(OS), and odd ratios(ORs) with 95% CIs for clinicopathologic factors were calculated. A total of 15 studies involving 3605 patients were included in this meta-analysis. The results showed no prognostic role of PD-L1 in the whole patients(HR=1.60, 95% CI: 0.88–2.89, P=0.123). Subgroup analysis showed that PD-L1 was associated with decreased OS in Asian patients(HR=2.00, 95% CI: 1.55–2.57, P〈0.001). Among all the clinicopathologic factors, PD-L1 overexpression was significantly in relevance with poor tumor cell differentiation(HR=1.84, 95% CI: 1.49–2.28, P〈0.001), late stage(HR=1.21, 95% CI: 1.02–1.43, P=0.026) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase(ALK) translocation(HR=2.63, 95% CI: 1.08–6.40, P=0.034), but not with other factors.

文摘Objective:To study is to evaluate the diagnostic value of the expression of thymidine kinase 1(TK1)in lung cancer through literature review and meta-analysis.Methods:Firstly,we searched Pubmed,Embase,Cochrane,Web of Science,CBM,CNKI,Wanfang and other databases up to June 2022.Then two researchers separately selected the clinical study on diagnosis of lung cancer by the expression of the TK1 and treatment and obtained the full text of the literature.Then we evaluated the systematic quality and bias risk of the included literatures by using Revman 5.3 software,and the consistency among the covariables in meta analysis.Finally,the Sensitivity(Sen),the Specificity(Spe)and other indicators were analyzed by using Stata16.0 software.Results:The study included 37 literatures,including 3218 lung cancer cases and 2976 control cases.The meta-analysis showed that the Ser and Spe of the expression of the TK1 in the diagnosis of lung cancer were 0.63(95%CI:0.57,0.68)and 0.88(95%CI:0.84,0.91),while positive likelihood ratio(PLR)was 5.34(95%CI:4.02,7.1)and negative likelihood ratio(NLR)was 0.42(95%CI:0.37,0.48),diagnostic odd sratio(DOR)was 12.69(95%CI:8.91,18.08),and the area under the ROC curve(AUC)was 0.82(95%CI:0.79,0.85).When TK1,CEA and CYFRA21-1 were used as combined diagnostic indexes of lung cancer,Sen was 0.82(95%CI:0.76,0.86),Spe 0.78(95%CI:0.46,0.94),PLR 3.69(95%CI:1.28,10.66),NLR 0.24(95%CI:0.18,0.31),DOR 15.59(95%CI:4.56,53.36),AUC 0.84(95%CI:0.80,0.87).The Youden index of combined diagnosis was 0.60,which was higher than that of TK1 alone.Conclusion:TK1 alone as a diagnostic index of lung cancer has low Sen,but its Sep is higher.So it has a certain diagnostic value.TK1 combined with CEA and CYFRA21-1 has higher Sen in the diagnosis of lung cancer,and the diagnostic value is better.
文摘Purpose: The discovery of EGFR mutations renewed interest in lung cancer translational research since EGFR-dependent pathway plays an important role in the development and progression of human epithelial cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The present meta-analysis was performed to review the recent advances with the selective oral EGFR-TK inhibitor gefitinib among EGFR mutation positive patients with NSCLC. Methods: Using the keywords “gefitinib” and “lung cancer” MEDLINE was searched. The primary reports of interest were the randomized controlled trials in NSCL published in peer-reviewed journals. Three recent studies concerning the effect of gefitinib in NSCLC were identified to be relevant for the meta-analysis based on their similarity in terms of study design. PFS and objective response rate (ORR) in gefitinib and platinum/taxane combination were compared by the Hazard ratio (HR) or Odds Ratio (OR) of meta-analysis. Results: The HR (95%CI) of the meta-analysis of 0.41 (0.34 - 0.49) demonstrated that in patients EFGR mutation positive patients, PFS was significantly longer among those who received gefitinib compared to platin derivative/taxane combination. Furthermore, OR of the meta-analysis for ORR was 3.83 (2.72 - 5.40). While hematological toxicity was observed in the majority of the taxane/platinum group, major adverse events in gefitinib patients were skin rashes/acnea, dry skin, elevated liver enzymes and diarrhea. Conclusions: This meta-analysis strongly confirms the efficacy and better tolerability of gefitinib in EGFR positive NSCLC, and the importance of EGFR mutation testing in order to plan first-line treatment in routine clinical practice in NSCLC.

文摘Objective:To systematically evaluate TCM of Fuzheng and Kangai combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of Advanced NSCLC,including the efficacy and effect on the quality of life of patients.Methods:Two researchers independently searched the literature of clinical trails from Jan.2010 until Jun.2020 in the Cochrane Library,Pubmed,Embase,CBM,CNKI,WanFang Data and VIP database.Also,they had been evaluated and extracted strictly by REVMAN 5.3.Results:A total of 1303 patients were included in 15 articles.The meta analysis shows that the TCM of Fuzheng and Kangai combined with chemotherapy can improve the objective response rate[OR=2.14,95%CI(1.67,2.74),P<0.00001],disease control rate[OR=2.54,95%CI(1.88,3.42),P<0.00001]and KPS score[OR=3.28,95%CI(1.92,5.60),P<0.0001],decrease the incidence rate of liver injury[OR=0.34,95%CI(0.21,0.54),P=0.003],hemoglobin reduction[OR=0.53,95%CI(0.28,1.01),P=0.05],leukopenia[OR=0.22,95%CI(0.13,0.39),P<0.00001],thrombocytopenia[OR=0.32,95%CI(0.21,0.50),P<0.00001],toxic effects on the digestive systems[OR=0.30,95%CI(0.19,0.46),P<0.00001].Conclusions:the experimental group was better than control one in short-term efficacy and KPS score.Furthermore,the experimental group can reduce the incidence rate of myelosuppression,toxicity of digestive system and liver.
文摘Background: Published data have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) could play a potential role as diagnostic and prognostic indicators in cancers. Data for the predictive value of miRNA let-7, miR-21, and miR-205 are inconclusive. The aim of the present analysis was therefore to evaluate the expression and the prognostic role of the above mentioned miRNAs?in early-stage?(T1N0) NSCLC patients. Methods: Quantification of let-7g, miR-21, and miR-205 expression was carried out into 105 early-stage NSCLC by quantitative Real Time-PCR (qRT-PCR).?Results: a significant association between the low miR-205 expression and ADC histotype (p??0.0001) compared to SCC?was found;moreover, survival analysis showed thattumors with a high?miR-205 expression had a significantly shorter mean PFS and OS compared to the patients with a low expression of this miRNA (p = 0.02 and p = 0.03, respectively). No other statistically significant correlations were observed between the analysed miRNAs and the main clinico-pathological characteristics of the NSCLC patients. Conclusion: The results indicated that miR-205 could represent a useful marker in the prognostic management of the early-stage (T1N0) NSCLC patients.
