Methods: Sixty-seven patients undergoing radical esophageal cancer surgery were divided \u0000into GDFT group (GDFT \u0000therapy) and control group (conventional \u0000liquid therapy). The changes in patients’ pulmonary function, cognitive function and inflammatory response were \u0000evaluated. Results: Both alveolar-arterial oxygen partial pressure \u0000difference [P(A-a)O2] \u0000and respiratory index (RI) \u0000increased at one-lung ventilation for 30 minutes (T2) and decreased \u0000at one-lung ventilation for 60 minutes (T3), and after surgery (T4) in the two groups, and \u0000the GDFT group was lower than the control group (P 0.05); \u0000theoxygenation index (OI) of the two groups decreased at T2, T3, \u0000and T4 compared with that at T1 (before one-lung ventilation), and the GDFT group was higher than the control \u0000group (P 0.05). At T4 and \u0000T5, the tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin 6 (IL-6), \u0000central nervous system specific protein (S100β), and neuron specific enolase (NSE) in the GDFT group were lower \u0000compared to the control group (P 0.05), \u0000while interleukin-10 (IL-10) was higher compared to the control group (P 0.05); the incidence of perioperative neurocognitive \u0000disorder (PND) in the GDFT group was lower than that in the control group (P 0.05). Conclusion: GDFT can help prevent lung \u0000injury during radical esophageal cancer surgery under one-lung ventilation, \u0000reduce the body’s \u0000inflammatory response, and reduce the incidence of perioperative cognitive \u0000disorder to a certain extent.","PeriodicalId":66197,"journal":{"name":"癌症治疗(英文)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44095078","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They are a \u0000heterogeneous group of pathologies and represent a serious health problem by their frequency, severity and treatment difficulties. The prognosis \u0000of malignant gliomas remains poor despite all the medical advances. Materials and Methods: It is a retrospective study included 20 cases of \u0000malignant glial tumors treated at the \u0000medical oncology department, Fattouma Bourguiba hospital in Monastir \u0000between 2012 and 2016, according to the STUPP protocol. Results: These \u0000were 12 men and 8 women with a median age of 43. Clinical signs were not very \u0000specific, dominated by intracranial hypertension and deficit signs. Imagery referred to the diagnosis of malignant gliomas in \u00001st intention. Surgery consisted of a macroscopically complete exeresis \u0000in (15%) cases, a partial exeresis in (50%), the rest of the patients had a \u0000stereotactic biopsy. Histology found GBM in 16 patients (80%), 2 cases of Grade \u0000III anaplastic astrocytoma (10%), 1 case of anaplastic oligodendroglioma (5%), \u0000and 1 case of Grade III anaplastic eppendymoma (5%). Most of our patients \u0000received concurrent radio-chemotherapy and adjuvant TMZ chemotherapy was \u0000administered in 15 patients, 7 of whom received the full 6 scheduled cures. A \u0000relapse treatment was decided in only one of the 12 patients who relapsed. 6 \u0000patients are still alive. The median survival is 11.27 months. In our series, \u0000overall survival was related to histological type (p = 0.006) and neurological \u0000status assessed at the end of RT-CT (p = 0.001). While age, general condition \u0000score, type of surgery, and post-therapeutic development did not show a statistically significant \u0000relationship, although survival rates were consistent with the criteria assessed.
