Abstract

The clinical effect of interventional therapy on gastric cancer after chemotherapy and effect on inflammatory factors in peripheral blood serum of patients were investigated. A retrospective analysis of 429 patients with gastric cancer treated in Xiangyang No. 1 People's Hospital, Hubei University of Medicine from July 2008 to December 2014 was performed. Among them, 220 patients received interventional therapy after chemotherapy as the experimental group, and 209 patients received conventional therapy as the control group. Serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), tumor markers CA19-9, interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) levels were measured before and after chemotherapy. The correlation between the concentration of CEA and CA19-9 before and after treatment and the levels of IL-6, IL-8 and IL-10 were analyzed in the experimental group, and all patients were followed up for 3 years. There were no significant differences in CEA, CA19-9, IL-6, IL-8 and IL-10 between the two groups before chemotherapy (P>0.05). After treatment, the concentrations of CEA, CA19-9, IL-6, IL-8 and IL-10 in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group before and after treatment (P<0.05). The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of the experimental group were significantly better than those in the control group (P<0.05). Pearson's correlation analysis showed that the concentrations of CEA and CA19-9 in the serum of the experimental group before and after treatment were positively correlated with the levels of IL-6, IL-8 and IL-10 (P<0.05). The 3-year overall survival rate of the study group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). Cox regression analysis showed that age, Borrmann classification, degree of differentiation, and history of Helicobacter pylori infection were independent prognostic factors for patients with gastric cancer. Compared with traditional treatment, interventional therapy can greatly improve the recovery of gastric cancer patients after chemotherapy, reduce the occurrence of complications and inflammation, and improve the survival rate of patients.
