Objective To observe the variety of liver and kidney function during lung transplantation and discuss its reference value of diagnosis and therapy in clinical acute rejection(AR).Methods The variety of TBIL, ALT and CRE were dynamically studied and analyzed before and after lung transplantation in 2 cases shared one same donor's lung block.Results During the use of CSA,TBIL diversely procedurally raised and it got right when AR was under control; when illness was worsen,ALT abnormally raised and CRE had no remarkably change.Conclusion TBIL is the sensitivity index of hepatotoxicity of immunity inhibitor CSA after lung transplantation. The abnormal change of ALT is the index of disease turnover.

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) defines shift work as any arrangement of daily working hours other than the standard daylight hours (typically 7:00/8:00 am–5:00/6:00 pm). To meet the needs of rapid socioeconomic development, shift work is becoming more and more common. The impact of shift work, especially night shift work, on human health cannot be ignored. Female's health is not only important to the well-being of themselves, but also has a far-reaching impact on their children and even their entire family. Increasing epidemiological studies have focused on the effects of night shift work on female's reproductive health. This article reviewed epidemiological evidence of the associations between night shift work and reproductive outcomes, e.g. menstrual cycle, endometriosis, pregnancy rate, adverse pregnancy outcomes, and ovarian cancer. The potential biological mechanisms connecting night shift work to female reproductive health were also introduced, e.g. melatonin regulation, clock gene regulation, and sex hormone regulation. Through this review, we propose to provide a reference for determining occupational risk factors, conducting subsequent relevant studies, and formulating rational health promotion strategies.

Objective:To investigate the effects of TRIB3 activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway on the growth and pro-liferation of laryngeal carcinoma TU686 cells in vitro and expression of peripheral immunosuppressive molecules in transplanted mice.Methods:Protein and RNA expressions of TRIB3 were detected in vitro cells(human immortalized epidermal cell line HaCat and laryngeal carcinoma cell line TU686)and tissues(laryngeal carcinoma and adjacent tissues),respectively.Laryngeal carcinoma TU686 cells were cultured in vitro and divided into negative control group(NC group)and TRIB3 knockdown group(sh-TRIB3 group),total protein and RNA of cells were extracted to verify the expression level of TRIB3 in two groups.After successful verifica-tion,proliferation ability of TU686 cells was detected by CCK-8,colony cloning and flow cytometry.Protein expression levels of Wnt,Cyclin-D1,C-myc,β-catenin and p-β-catenin in two groups were detected by Western blot.Correlation analysis verified the correla-tion between TRIB3 and Wnt,Cyclin-D1,C-myc,β-catenin,p-β-catenin protein expressions.TRIB3-low expressing nude mouse transplanted tumor model(TRIB3 sgRNA group)was constructed by knockdown the TRIB3 core plasmid,and a parallel control group(Control sgRNA group)was set up,tumor growth volume and weight were observed,and serum immunosuppressive molecules expres-sions was determined by ELISA.Results:Compared with HaCat cells and normal paracarcinoma tissues,TRIB3 was highly expressed in TU686 cells and laryngeal carcinoma tissues.Compared with negative control group,proliferation ability of TU686 cells was signifi-cantly inhibited after TRIB3 knockdown,and cell growth was blocked in G1/S phase.Expressions of Wnt,Cyclin-D1,C-myc andβ-catenin protein in Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway were decreased significantly,while expression of p-β-catenin was increased significantly.TRIB3 was significantly correlated with protein expression levels of Wnt,Cyclin-D1,β-catenin and p-β-catenin.The in vivo results showed that compared with Control sgRNA group,tumor growth volume and weight of mice in TRIB3 sgRNA group were significantly decreased,and expressions of serum immunosuppressive molecules IL-4,IL-6,IL-10,TGF-β and PGE2 were signifi-cantly decreased.Conclusion:TRIB3 is highly expressed in TU686 cells,and TRIB3 can inhibit growth and proliferation of TU686 cells and transplanted tumors by activating Wnt/β-catenin-related signaling pathways,and reverse tumor immunosuppressive microen-vironment,suggesting that TRIB3 may be an effective target for laryngeal cancer.

Objective:To investigate the prognosis of patients with initially resectable gastric cancer liver metastasis (GCLM) who were treated by different modalities, and analyze the influencing factors for prognosis of patients.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 327 patients with initially resectable GCLM who were included in the database of a nationwide multicenter retrospective cohort study on GCLM based on real-world data from January 2010 to December 2019 were collected. There were 267 males and 60 females, aged 61(54,68)years. According to the specific situations of patients, treatment modalities included radical surgery combined with systemic treatment, palliative surgery combined with systemic treatment, and systemic treatment alone. Observation indicators: (1) clinical characteristics of patients who were treated by different modalities; (2) prognostic outcomes of patients who were treated by different modalities; (3) analysis of influencing factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM; (4) screening of potential beneficiaries in patients who were treated by radical surgery plus systemic treatment and patients who were treated by palliative surgery plus systemic treatment. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the rank sum test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rate and draw survival curve, and Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using the COX proportional hazard regression model. The propensity score matching was employed by the 1:1 nearest neighbor matching method with a caliper value of 0.1. The forest plots were utilized to evaluate potential benefits of diverse surgical combined with systemic treatments within the population. Results:(1) Clinical characteristics of patients who were treated by different modalities. Of 327 patients, there were 118 cases undergoing radical surgery plus systemic treatment, 164 cases undergoing palliative surgery plus systemic treatment, and 45 cases undergoing systemic treatment alone. There were significant differences in smoking, drinking, site of primary gastric tumor, diameter of primary gastric tumor, site of liver metastasis, and metastatic interval among the three groups of patients ( P<0.05). (2) Prognostic outcomes of patients who were treated by different modalities. The median overall survival time of the 327 pati-ents was 19.9 months (95% confidence interval as 14.9-24.9 months), with 1-, 3-year overall survival rate of 61.3%, 32.7%, respectively. The 1-year overall survival rates of patients undergoing radical surgery plus systemic treatment, palliative surgery plus systemic treatment and systemic treatment alone were 68.3%, 63.1%, 30.6%, and the 3-year overall survival rates were 41.1%, 29.9%, 11.9%, showing a significant difference in overall survival rate among the three groups of patients ( χ2=19.46, P<0.05). Results of further analysis showed that there was a significant difference in overall survival rate between patients undergoing radical surgery plus systemic treatment and patients undergoing systemic treatment alone ( hazard ratio=0.40, 95% confidence interval as 0.26-0.61, P<0.05), between patients undergoing palliative surgery plus systemic treatment and patients under-going systemic treatment alone ( hazard ratio=0.47, 95% confidence interval as 0.32-0.71, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of influencing factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM. Results of multivariate analysis showed that the larger primary gastric tumor, poorly differentiated tumor, larger liver metastasis, multiple hepatic metastases were independent risk factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM ( hazard ratio=1.20, 1.70, 1.20, 2.06, 95% confidence interval as 1.14-1.27, 1.25-2.31, 1.04-1.42, 1.45-2.92, P<0.05) and immunotherapy or targeted therapy, the treatment modality of radical or palliative surgery plus systemic therapy were independent protective factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM ( hazard ratio=0.60, 0.39, 0.46, 95% confidence interval as 0.42-0.87, 0.25-0.60, 0.30-0.70, P<0.05). (4) Screening of potentinal beneficiaries in patients who were treated by radical surgery plus systemic treatment and patients who were treated by palliative surgery plus systemic treatment. Results of forest plots analysis showed that for patients with high-moderate differentiated GCLM and patients with liver metastasis located in the left liver, the overall survival rate of patients undergoing radical surgery plus systemic treatment was better than patients undergoing palliative surgery plus systemic treatment ( hazard ratio=0.21, 0.42, 95% confidence interval as 0.09-0.48, 0.23-0.78, P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared to systemic therapy alone, both radical and palliative surgery plus systemic therapy can improve the pro-gnosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM. The larger primary gastric tumor, poorly differen-tiated tumor, larger liver metastasis, multiple hepatic metastases are independent risk factors for prognosis of patients with initial resectable GCLM and immunotherapy or targeted therapy, the treatment modality of radical or palliative surgery plus systemic therapy are independent protective factors for prognosis of patients with initially resectable GCLM.
