Objective To investigate the expression of c-Myc in gastric mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and its implications on prognosis.Methods The clinical data of 79 patients hospitalized in our hospital from 2009 to 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.In these patients,38 patients were low-grade MALT lymphoma,20 patients were high-grade MALT lymphoma,21 patients were diffused large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL).Real-time PCR was used to detect the levels of c-Myc expression in gastric MALT tissues and pair-matched adjacent normal tissues.The relationship between the expression of c-Myc and prognosis of patients was evaluated combing with the clinical data.Results Compared with the normal tissues,the expression levels of c-Myc protein were 15.7％ (6/38),25％ (5/20) and 28.5％ (6/21)in patients with low-grade MALT lymphoma,high-grade MALT lymphoma,and DLBCL.The relative expression levels of cMyc mRNA were gradually elevated in low-grade MALT lymphoma,high-grade MALT lymphoma and DLBCL.The tumor size and depth of invasion can influence the expression level of c-Myc.Survival analysis found that the overall survival rates and relapse-free survival rates were lower in patients with c-Myc positive expression than those of patients with negative expression (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion C-Myc plays a key role in the malignant transformation of gastric MALT lymphoma.

Objective To identify the role of miR-124 in regulating the radiosensitivity and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods Transient transfection of cells with miR-124 mimic or inhibitor was performed and wound-healing assay was used to investigate the role of miR-124 in the EMT of NPC. The apoptosis affected by miR-124 was also measured after irradiation , followed by investigating the cell proliferation by EdU assay. Finally , proteins of Akt and ERK associated with EMT and radiosensitivity, were measured by western blot. Results The migration index from NPC cell line indicated that miR-124 repressed the EMT. The results from caspase-3 activity assay showed that caspase-3 activity after irradiation significantly increased in miR-124 mimic group compared with the control group (P < 0.01). It was also confirmed that irradiation led to a higher percentage of apoptosis in miR-124 group compared with the control group in NPC cells. Cell proliferation after irradiation was significantly decreased in MiR-124 group as compared with control group . MiR-124 inhibited the protein expression of p-Akt . Conclusion MiR-124 may repress the EMT and decrease radio-resistance of NPC via p-Akt signaling pathway , which may provide a new insight into radio-resistance in NPC.

Objective The radiotherapy resistance is one of important causes for nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) treatment failure.Junctional adhesion molecule A(JAMA)is closely correlated with the tumor poor prognosis.Thus this experiment is to in vestigate the relationship between JAMA expression and the radiosensitivity of NPC.Methods To overexpress or interfere the JAMA expression in CNE2 and HONE1 cell lines.Then different doses of X-ray were adopted to conduct irradiation.The cell clone formation capacity and cellular apoptosis change were detected after 24 h.The role of JAMA in the NPC radiotherapy was understand.The related signal pathway protein in cell lines with different JAMA expression was detected by Western blot.Results The cell lines with low JAMA expression were more sensitive to radiotherapy:After low JAMA expression,the D0 value in the CNE2 cell line was decreased from 3.26 ±0.78 to 1.92 ± 0.23;the Dq value was decreased from 46.51 ± 4.27 to 32.12 ± 3.19.The radio therapy induced apoptosis was significantly increased in the cell lines with low JAMA expression,after low JAMA expressing,thcellular apoptosis was elevated from 6.9 ％ ± 0.9 ％ to 13.7 ％ ± 1.3 ％;the HONE1 cellular apoptosis was elevated from 6.5 ％ + 1.1 ％ to 12.3 ％ ± 1.7％;JAMA overexpression cell lines were significantly decreased.The preliminary mechanism research results showed that JAMA played the effect via Akt signal pathway.Conclusion This research results verifiy that JAMA expression level is closely correlated with the radiosensitivity of NPC cell line:JAMA can increase the radiotherapy resistance of NPC cell lines,which provides a new feasible research direction for NPC enhancing radiosensitivity.

Objective:To investigate risk factors of arrhythmia in elderly patients with early lung cancer after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection to construct a prediction model.Methods:Two hundreds and twenty elderly patients with early lung cancer after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection were retrospectively chosen in the period from January 2017 to January 2023 in Guang'an People's Hospital of Sichuan Province. The occurrence of arrhythmia was calculated, and the clinical data of patients with arrhythmia and those without arrhythmia were compared. Logistic regression was employeed to analyze the independent influencing factors of arrhythmia in elderly patients with early lung cancer after thoracoscopic pneumonectomy. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of regression model on arrhythmia after thoracoscopic pneumonectomy in elderly patients with early lung cancer.Results:Forty-one of 220 (18.64%) elderly patients with early lung cancer treated by thoracoscopic pneumonectomy had arrhythmia. There were statistically significant differences between patients with arrhythmia and patients without arrhythmia in age ( χ2=17.76, P<0.001), combined with essential hypertension ( χ2=21.06, P<0.001), forced expiratory volume in one second as a percentage of predicted value (FEV 1%) ( χ2=17.88, P<0.001), left atrium anterior-and-posterior diameter ( χ2=37.82, P<0.001), operation type ( χ2=27.09, P<0.001) and postoperative constipation ( χ2=18.25, P<0.001). The results of multivariate analysis showed that age>75 years old ( OR=22.17, 95% CI: 3.78-130.11, P=0.001), combined with essential hypertension ( OR=26.55, 95% CI: 3.99-176.95, P=0.001), FEV 1%≤70% ( OR=6.20, 95% CI: 1.37-28.11, P=0.018), left atrium anterior-and-posterior diameter>40 mm ( OR=10.84, 95% CI: 2.24-52.45, P=0.003), thoracoscopic lobectomy ( OR=7.07, 95% CI: 1.62-30.80, P=0.009), and postoperative constipation ( OR=79.97, 95% CI: 11.87-538.83, P<0.001) were all independent risk factors for arrhythmia after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection in elderly patients with early lung cancer. A prediction model was established for statistically significant indicators in multivariate analysis, ln ( P/1- P) =-7.89+3.10×age+3.28×combined with essential hypertension+1.82×FEV 1%+2.38×left atrium anterior-and-posterior diameter+1.96×operation type+4.38×postoperative constipation ( P was the prediction probability of P value in regression model). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of predict arrhythmia after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection in elderly patients with early lung cancer were 0.64, 0.71, 0.68, 0.74, 0.76, 0.87 and 0.98, respectively. The Yoden index was 27.29%, 42.28%, 34.92%, 47.42%, 73.63%, 50.97% and 91.97%, respectively. Conclusion:Age>75 years old, combined with essential hypertension, FEV 1%≤70%, left atrium anterior-and-posterior diameter>40 mm, thoracoscopic lobectomy and postoperative constipation are all independent risk factors for arrhythmia after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection in elderly patients with early lung cancer. Nomogram model based on the above risk factors has high efficacy in predicting arrhythmia occurance after thoracoscopic pulmonary resection.

Objective: To investigate the incidence of abnormal spinal curvature and related factors among middle school students in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, so as to provide evidence for abnormal spinal curvature prevention and treatment. Methods: By using a random stratified cluster sampling method, 87 908 students of middle and high school students from all 12 counties(districts) were investigated via questionnaires for abnormal spinal curvature and health influencing factors in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Chi square test was used to perform demographic characteristics and univariate analysis, and binary multivariate Logistic regression model was used to screen the risk factors for spinal curvature abnormalities in middle school students. Results: A total of 3 131(3.56%) students with spinal curvature abnormalities were detected, with boys (3.69%) higher than that of girls(3.44%), urban areas (6.15%) higher than that of the suburban counties (2.50%), and high school students ( 4.97 %) higher than that of junior high school(2.73%) students( χ 2=4.01, 702.19, 299.36, P <0.05). The detectable rate of spinal curvature abnormalities increased with grade ( χ 2 trend =309.29, P <0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that factors influencing abnormal spinal curvature included myopia, overweight, obesity, the frequency of classroom seating arrangements, time spent on homework/reading after school every day, time spent in daytime outdoor activities, self imposed requirements for posture of sitting and standing, phase of studying, gender, and area ( OR =0.53-2.55, P <0.05). Conclusion Abnormal spinal curvature is strongly correlated to nutritional status, myopia, sitting posture when reading and writing, sedentary time, and time spent in outdoor activities. The collaboration of multiple departments is required to establish anenvironment to protect the spine, early detection and early intervention.
