Objective To analyze predictive factors on survival in patients with completely resected high-risk Ⅱ/Ⅲ stage colorectal cancer after adjuvant chemotherapy.Methods According to random number table, 76 cases with completely resected high-risk Ⅱ/Ⅲ stage colorectal cancer after adjuvant chemotherapy were selected, who newly diagnosed and hospitalized in 2004. Their disease-free and overall survivals were followed up.Thymidylate synthase gene polymorphism and microsatellite instability were tested in these cases with microdissection combined with polymerase chain reaction and capillary electrophoresis. Correlation of these factors including clinical characteristics, thymidylate synthase gene polymorphism and microsatellite instability to survival was analyzed with SPSS13.0 software. Results Histologic grades and evaluated lymph node number had significantly difference between two groups of distinct prognosis (χ2 = 7.827, P =0.003 and χ2 = 9.265, P =0.018, respectively), which were also independent predictors on survival proved by COX regression analysis (χ2 = 40.472, P =0.000 and χ2 = 39.528, P =0.000, respectively).Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the median disease-free and overall survival of poor-differentiated adenocarcinoma patients were significantly shorter than those of high and intermediate-differentiated ones (27.67 vs 61.13months, χ2 = 45.015, P =0.000 and 43.13 vs 64.21 months, χ2 = 35.514, P =0.000, respectively), as well, the median disease-free and overall survival of patients with the evaluated lymph node number less than 11 were poorer than those of more than 11 ( 45.65 vs 68.47 months, χ2 = 23.134, P =0.011 and 53.10 vs 70.18months, χ2 = 22.896, P =0.013, respectively).Conclusion Poor-differentiated adenocarcinoma and evaluated lymph node number less than 11 may be predictors on poor survival in patients with completely resected highrisk Ⅱ/Ⅲ stage colorectal cancer after adjuvant chemotherapy.

Objective To study PTEN protein expression and clinical significance in patients with diffuse large B cell lymphoma. Methods Immunohistochemical staining was used to determine the PTEN protein expression in 40 cases of primary diffuse large B lymphoma tissuse. The results were analyzed by Kaplan-Merie survival analysis, Log-Rank test and Logistic regression analysis. Results PTEN protein was positive in 16 cases and negative in 24 cases. There was no significant difference between two groups in twoyear overall survival rate(62.5 % vs 66.7 %, P >0.05). Survival analysis showed that patient' s survival time gradually were reduced with extended time between PTEN protein-positive group and negative group, lower in PTEN-positive group than the negative group, but there was no significant difference in survival curve (P >0.05) in the two groups. We compared characteristics of patients between PTEN protein positive and negative groups,including molecular type, patient' s age, stage, LDH, physical score and extranodular invasion, there was no significant difference among them. PTEN protein was not correlated with prognosis, while International Prognosis Index(IPI) was still a risk factor (OR >1). Conclusion PTEN protein expression may not predict the outcome in diffuse large B cell lymphoma, but IPI still is a predictor.

Objective To explore the prognostic significance of p53 mutation protein in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma for the purpose of individualized therapy. Methods Newly diagnosed 62 cases were randomly chosen from our hospital, p53 mutation protein and CD10, bcl-6, MUM1 were tested by immunohistochemistry. Correlation of p53 mutation protein with patients ' characteristics, genotype and survival were analysed in the study. Results p53 mutation protein was found in 48.4 % (30/62) of patients.Its expression was only related to initial treatment response (x2 =20.365, P =0.040), including complete remission rate of 33.3 % (10/30) in positive group and 59.4 % (19/32) in negative group, and non-germinal center genotype (x2=31.023, P =0.021) with 83.3 % in positive group and 56.2 % in negative group. No other correlation was not verified with clinical features. Multivariate survival analysis showed that p53 mutation protein was an independent predictor for shorter progress-free and overall survival in positive group (x2 =30.784, P =0.005 and x2 =35.276, P =0.006). Conclusion p53 mutation protein should be an independent predictor with poor prognosis and to direct personalized therapy.

Objective:To establish a model C-GALAD for detecting hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) from the chronic liver disease and healthy people based on the serum markers.Methods:A clinical cohort including 229 hepatocellular carcinoma patients, 2 317 patients with chronic liver disease and 982 healthy people, was retrospectively collected from eight hospitals or physical examination institutions from April 2018 to October 2020. The data were divided into a training set and a testing set by stratified sampling with a 6∶4 ratio. A predictive model was established on the training set using a logistic backward regression method and validated on the testing set. In addition, clinical data from March to July 2021 in Beijing You′ an Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, including 84 patients with liver cancer and 204 patients with chronic liver disease collected were used for external independent validation of the model. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) area under curve (AUC), the sensitivity and the specificity were used to evaluate the effectiveness of the model.Results:Through the logistic backward regression method, the seven signatures including age, gender, alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), alpha-fetoprotein alloplasm-3 ratio (AFP-L3%), des-gamma-carboxyprothrombin(DCP), platelet (PLT) and total bilirubin (TBIL) were selected as risk factors in the detection model. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the model on the testing set was 0.954, with an 88.04% sensitivity and a 94.85% specificity, and the AUC of model on the external independent validation set was 0.943, with an 89.29% sensitivity and a 90.2% specificity, which were better than other published models.Conclusion:The C-GALAD Ⅱ model can accurately predict the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma occurrence, and thus provide a trustworthy diagnosis method of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective: To investigate the mechanism of miR-31-5p/tension protein 1 gene (TNS1) axis modulating radiotherapy resistance in breast cancer. Methods: The breast cancer tissues and corresponding para-cancerous tissues of 21 patients with breast cancer, who underwent surgical resection at Department of Cancer Radiotherapy of Nanyang Central Hospital from July 2017 to December 2017, were collected for this study; breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7，MDA-MB-23 and SKBR-3) were also collected; qPCR was applied to detect the expression level of miR-31-5p in breast cancer tissues and cell lines. The radiation resistant cell line MCF-7R was constructed by using 6 MV-X ray radiotherapy treatment. Subsequently, the influence of over-expression/kockdown of miR-31-5p on radiation sensitivity of MCF-7 and MCF-7R cells were detected by colony formation assay, Transwell assay and Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining flow cytometry assay, respectively. Moreover, luciferase reporter assay was used to verify whether TNS1 was a target gene of miR-31-5p. Results: Compared with para-cancerous tissues, normal mammary epithelial MCF-10A cells and MCF-7 cells, miR-31-5p was low-expressed in breast cancer, cell lines and MCF-7R (all P<0.01). Over-expression of miR-31-5p resulted in inhibited invasion and promoted apoptosis of MCF-7R cells (P<0.01), whereas miR-31-5p knockdown got opposite results in MCF-7 cells. Moreover, luciferase reporter assay confirmed that TNS1 was a target gene of miR-31-5p. Over-expression of miR-31-5p inhibited invasion and increased radio-sensitivity, apoptosis of MCF-7R cell via targeting TNS1 (P<0.01), whereas knockdown of miR-31-5p significantly promoted the invasion but reduced apoptosis of MCF-7R cells (all P<0.01), and further up-regulated the radio-sensitivity of MCF-7R cells. Conclusion: miR-31-5p/TNS1 axis regulates the radiotherapy resistance of breast cancer, and over-expression of miR-31-5p may reverse the resistance of MCF-7R to radiotherapy.

Background The subway environment, characterized by dense crowds, relatively enclosed architectural structures, and insufficient ventilation, poses various health hazards. Population health risk attributable to subway hygiene have become an important public health issue. Objective To evaluate the current environmental hygiene of metro line X in Nanjing, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of harmful factors and the establishment of relevant standards. Methods Station halls, platforms, and carriages of Nanjing metro line X were monitored in March 2023. Six stations were selected by stratified sampling, and monitored once during the morning peak hours (9:00—11:00). Carriage monitoring was conducted after a full day of operation (21:00—22:00). The monitoring indicators included physical factors such as temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, illuminance, and noise (A-weighted); air quality factors such as carbon dioxide (CO₂), carbon monoxide (CO), respirable particulate matter (PM₁₀), fine particulate matter (PM_2.5), ammonia (NH₃), formaldehyde, benzene, toluene, xylene, total volatile organic compounds (TVOC), ozone (O₃), total bacterial count, and total fungi count; hygiene status of the inner surface of the central air conditioning ventilation system, such as dust accumulation, total bacterial count, and total fungi count; supply air, such as PM_10, PM_2.5, total bacterial count, and total fungi count; and surface microorganisms on objects, such as total bacterial count, total fungi count, coliform bacteria, and Staphylococcus aureus. Results were evaluated and discussed according to Hygienic indicators and limits for public places (GB 37488-2019) and Hygienic specification of central air conditioning ventilation systems in public buildings (WS 394-2012). Results The environmental temperature medians (P₂₅, P₂₅) in the platforms and carriages of Nanjing metro line X were 20.7 (19.95, 21.65) ℃ and 21.8 (19.80, 35.80) °C, respectively, which exceeded the standard limits. The relative humidity and noise level in the carriages were 38.80% (24.6%, 46.3%) and 79.50 (76.25, 82.00) dB, respectively, failing to meet the national health standards. The total fungi count in supply air in 22.2% of the monitoring points exceeded the standard value. Coliform bacteria and Staphylococcus aureus were detected on the surfaces of some high-touch objects, with the bathroom faucet being the most severely contaminated. The medians (P₂₅, P₂₅) of temperature [21.8 (19.8, 35.8) ℃], wind speed [0.48 (0.39, 1.02) m·s⁻¹], noise [79.5 (76.25, 82.00) dB, and CO₂ content [0.079% (0.070%, 0.091%)] in the carriages were higher than those in the station halls and platforms (P<0.05). There were significant differences in microclimate, air particulate matter, and air microbial levels between urban and suburban stations (P<0.05); the concentrations of PM₁₀ [0.076 (0.046, 0.079) mg·m⁻³)] and PM_2.5 [0.063 (0.044, 0.068) mg·m⁻³)] in suburban stations were 2 times higher than those of urban stations. The temperature [21.60 (20.45, 21.80) ℃], humidity [45.20% (40.95%, 50.10%)], CO₂ [0.100% (0.100%, 0.825%)], and PM₁₀ concentration [0.070 (0.041, 0.080) mg·m⁻³] in transfer stations were all significantly higher than those in non-transfer stations (P<0.05). The temperature at stations was significantly correlated with the CO₂ content (r_s=0.6107, P<0.001), the concentration of air particulate matter and the content of air microorganisms were positively correlated with the relative humidity (P<0.05), and the air PM₁₀ and PM_2.5 concentrations were positively correlated with the total bacterial count and the total fungi count (P<0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between the total bacterial count and the total fungi count on the inner surface of the air duct (r_s=0.5877, P<0.05). The concentrations of PM₁₀ and PM_2.5 in supply air were positively correlated (r_s=0.9635, P<0.001), and both were also positively correlated with the total bacterial count in supply air (r_s=0.6848 and 0.6511, P=0.002 and 0.003). Conclusion All chemical factors of metro line X in Nanjing meet the national standards, while physical factors (temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, and noise) exceed the standards, and coliform bacteria and Staphylococcus aureus are detected on the surfaces of bathroom faucets and carriage poles. It is advisable to reinforce microclimate management and noise reduction measures in carriages, while ensuring regular cleaning and disinfection of public facilities and equipment.
