Objective To evaluate the significance of AFP-IgM, this is one of new tumor markers, in the diagnosis of primary hepatocellular carcinoma (PHC). Methods The contents of AFP-IgM and AFP in serum of 103 healthy subjects, 74 patients suffered primary hepatic carcinoma, 27 patients affected by liver cirrhosis and 63 patients affected by chronic hepatitis were detected by means of enzyme linked immunosorbent assay and electrochemiluminescence. No-PHC is comprised of liver cirrhosis,chronic hepatitis and health subjects as control group. Results The area under ROC curve of AFP was larger than that of AFP-IgM (0.85 vs 0.72, Z=3.21) and the best cut-off value of AFP-IgM and AFP was 3×105-AU/L and 10 ug/L respectively, which was determined by ROC curve. Under the cut-off value, the sensitivity of AFP- lgM and AFP for PHC were 64.9% and 79.7%, and the specificity were 75.6% and 80.3%, yet their efficacies were similar. However, for early diagnosis of liver cancer (stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ), the area under ROC curve of AFP-IgM was larger than that of AFP (0.91 vs 0.82,Z=1.73). The sensitivity of AFP-IgM andAFP were 94.4% and 72. 2%, and the specificity were 81.9% and 79.9%. The differences of AFP-IgMand AFP for early diagnosis of liver cancer were statistically significant. When both of the test results combined AFP-IgM with AFP are positive, it can be diagnosed as liver cancer. The specificity of combineddetermination of the two forms was 89.1%, and the efficacy was 79. 0%. Conclusions Both of thesensitivity and specificity of the AFP-IgM test were higher than that of the AFP for early diagnosis of livercancer. We also found that combined determination of the two forms significantly increased the specificityand the positive predictive value for the diagnosis of PHC, thus AFP-IgM was of especially significance forearly diagnosis of liver cancer.

Objective: To explore mental health status of vocational college students and its association with physical exercise and exercise motivation, so as to provide data support for the promotion of physical exercise, exercise motivation theory and the protection of mental health among vocational college students. Methods: From June 2 to July 2, 2023, a convenience sampling method was used to select 1 763 college students from three vocational colleges in Sichuan, Chongqing, and Guizhou for the survey. Physical Activity Rating Scale (PARS-3), Motives for Physical Activities Measure-Revised (MPAM-R), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and Flourishing Scale (FS) were used to assess physical exercise, exercise motivation, depressive symptoms and flourishing levels of vocational college students. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between physical exercise, exercise motivation, depression as the negative indicator of mental health and flourishing as the positive indicator of mental health. Results: There were negative correlations between physical exercise, exercise motivation and their five factors with depression scores among vocational college students ( r=-0.162--0.133, P <0.01). Physical exercise, health motivation and pleasure motivation were positively correlated with flourishing and its eight factors among vocational college students ( r= 0.054 -0.099, P <0.05). Depression scores and flourishing scores varied significantly across students with different levels of physical exercise and exercise motivation ( F=11.18-15.69, 2.80-16.05, P <0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that physical exercise, health motivation, and total exercise motivation scores were negatively correlated with depressive symptoms ( β = -0.02 , -0.11, -0.35), and physical exercise, health motivation, pleasure motivation, and total exercise motivation scores were positively correlated with flourishing ( β =0.31, 0.32, 0.50, 0.30) ( P <0.05). Conclusions Physical exercise and exercise motivation are significantly associated with mental health of vocational college students. Enhancing physical exercise and increasing exercise motivation in aspects of health and pleasure can promote mental health of vocational college students.

Objective To investigate potential causative associations between immunophenotype traits and cervical cancer by using two-sample Mendelian randomization(MR)analysis.Methods The genetic instrumental variables(IVs)of 731 immunophenotypes of peripheral blood were obtained from the GWAS Catalog database.The GWAS summary data of cervical cancer were obtained from FinnGen database.The inverse-variance weighted(IVW),weighted mode,weighted median,and MR Egger methods were used for evaluations.The sensitivity analysis and reverse Mendelian randomization analysis were conducted to eliminate bias and reverse causality.The MR Steiger directionality test was further used to ascertain the reverse causal relationship between immune cells and cervical cancer.Results A total of 71 immune cell subtypes associated with cervical cancer were identified,of which 31 had a strong association.The majority of the B cell panel was protective factors for cervical cancer.B-cell activating factor receptor(BAFF-R)was the most frequently expressed molecule in this analysis.It is expressed on several B cell subtypes.The CD20 on IgD+CD38+B cell(OR=1.887,95%CI:1.078-3.306,P=0.026)is the risk factor for cervical cancer.In cDC panels,the CD123 expression on plasmacytoid dendritic cell(OR=2.48,95%CI:1.229-5.003,P=0.011),CD123 expression on CD62L+plasmacytoid dendritic cell(OR=2.5,95%CI:1.231-5.077,P=0.011),CD80 expression on plasmacytoid dendritic cell(OR=2.62,95%CI:1.244-5.515,P=0.011),and CD80 expression on CD62L+plasmacytoid dendritic cell(OR=2.641,95%CI:1.246-5.596,P=0.011)were positively associated with the incidence of cervical cancer.All gynecological cancers in this study have no statistically significant effect on immune cells,according to reverse MR analysis.Conclusion This study emphasized the genetically predicted causality between immune cells and cervical cancer.In clinical practice,it is important to pay attention to the screening of peripheral blood immune cells for patients with cervical cancer.

Objective To construct c-Met CAR-T cells secreting PD-1 antibodies to reduce immune inhibitory effect of tumor cells and enhance the efficacy of CAR-T cell therapy against pancreatic cancer.Methods Kaplan-Meier Plotter,GEPIA,and Timer 2.0 bioinformatics databases were used to analyze c-Met expression in pancreatic cancer and its correlation with survival and immune infiltration status.In clinical samples of pancreatic cancer and pancreatic cancer Aspc-1 cells,c-Met and PD-L1 expressions were detected using immunohistochemistry or flow cytometry.Using gene editing technology,PD-1 secretory antibodies and HIS tags were linked to second-generation c-Met CAR molecules to construct PD-1/c-Met CAR plasmids,which were then packaged into lentiviruses for infection of activated T cells.The positive rate and cell subset distribution of CAR-T cells were analyzed with flow cytometry,and secretory PD-1 antibodies in cell supernatants were detected using Western blotting.The target cell killing efficiency and proliferative activity of the modified CAR-T cells were evaluated after activation,and cytokine secretion was analyzed using ELISA.Results The expression of c-Met was significantly higher in pancreatic cancer than in normal tissues,and its expression level was negatively correlated with the patients'survival and positively correlated with immune cell infiltration.The clinical samples of pancreatic cancer tissues expressed significantly higher levels of c-Met and PD-L1 than the adjacent tissues,and 90.7%and 57.7%of Aspc-1 cells were positive for c-Met and PD-L1,respectively.The constructed PD-1/c-Met CAR-T cells were capable of secreting PD-1 antibodies and showed a significantly higher killing efficiency against tumor cells than c-Met CAR-T cells at an effector-to-target ratio of 20:1,with also a higher proliferative activity after target cell stimulation and higher levels of IL-2 and TNF-α secretin.Conclusion PD-1/c-Met CAR-T cells have higher killing efficiency against pancreatic cancer cells with also higher proliferative activity than c-Met CAR-T cells.

Objective:To improve the understanding of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients with bone marrow (BM) monoclonal plasma cell ratio of less than 10%.Methods:The clinical characteristics, laboratory examination, response to treatment, and prognosis of 36 NDMM patients with BM plasma cell ratio of less than 10% at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2009 to December 2017 were summarized retrospectively. In the same period, other age- and gender-matched 72 NDMM patients were selected as the control group, whose BM plasma cell ratio was equal to or greater than 10%.Results:First, the patients in the study group accounted for 4.4% of the whole MM population (36/818) , among which only 11 (30.6%) were classified as International Staging System (ISS) Ⅲ, which was significantly lower than that in the control group[45 (62.5%) ] ( P=0.002) . Extramedullary disease (EMD) was more common in the study group (33.3% vs 5.6%, P<0.001) . The median quantity of serum M protein (g/L) in the less than 10% group was 1.04 (0-50.10) , which was significantly lower than that in the control group [4.50 (0-63.10) ] ( P=0.016) , similar to the median quantity of 24-h urinary light chain (510 mg vs 2800 mg, respectively, P=0.023) . Second, the median progression-free survival (PFS) times of front-line regimen in the study and control groups were 26.4 and 19.9 months, respectively ( HR=1.703, 95% CI 0.167-0.233, P=0.002) . In addition, the overall survival (OS) times were 65.8 and 46.2 months, respectively ( HR=2.626, 95% CI 0.439-0.541, P=0.058) . Third, the study group was reclassified based on the quantity of M protein. The median OS times in patients with low/high tumor load were 66.4 and 24.0 months, respectively ( HR=2.349, 95% CI 0.603-0.696, P=0.046) . The median PFS times were 33.1 and 15.5 months, respectively ( HR=1.806, 95% CI 0.121-0.399, P=0.077) . Bortezomib-based regimens did not affect the clinical outcomes. Conclusion:The subpopulation of patients with MM with BM monoclonal plasma cell ratio less than 10% has specific clinical characteristics, including an early disease stage and a lower overall tumor load. Although more patients of this minor group presented with an extramedullary disease, their response rate to the initial treatment and survival outcome are better than those of patients with BM monoclonal plasma cell ratio more than 10%.

Objective: To investigate the associations between various blood test parameters including MLR (monocyte-lymphocyte ratio) and prognosis in post-operative esophagogastric junction cancer patients. Methods: We retrospectively studied the preoperative and postoperative data of 309 patients who underwent radical surgery for esophagogastric junction cancer. The relationship between MLR, neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and overall survival (OS) was analyzed. Results: The cutoff values of MLR、NLR and PLR were 0.201, 1.697 and 96.960, respectively. The median OS was 51.4 months for all the patients in the study group (n=309). MLR in patients with esophagogastric junction carcinoma was associated with gender, depth of invasion, histological grade, TNM stage, NLR and PLR (P<0.05). PLR was associated with tumor size, TNM stage, NLR and MLR (P<0.05). NLR was associated with gender, tumor size, TNM stage, PLR and MLR (both P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that tumor size, depth of tumor invasion, metastasis of lymph nodes, pathological grading, nerve infiltration, lymphovascular invasion, TNM staging, PLR and MLR were associated with the median overall survival time (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that TNM stage, nerve infiltration and MLR were independent prognostic predictors for patients with esophagogastric junction cancer (P<0.05), but not PLR or NLR. Setting the optimal cut-off value of the MLR in 0.201, the area under the curve was 0.603, significantly larger than that of PLR and NLR (P<0.05). Conclusions Preoperative MLR is a very useful predictor of patients with esophagogastric junction cancer who underwent radical rescetion. Preoperative MLR> 0.201 is an independent risk factor for postoperative survival in patients with esophagogastric cancer, and PLR> 96.960 may predict a poor prognosis risk.

Objective To characterize the distribution and assess the exposure to phthalic acid esters （PAEs） in the indoor dust of Shanghai City. Methods Samples were collected from 33 sampling sites， including homes， hotels， offices and public places， in Shanghai in 2018， 2019， and 2020. The samples were pretreated by 100 sieves， extracted and concentrated， and then analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in selected ion mode （SIM）. Results Results on the characteristics of PAEs in indoor dust in different places showed that concentrations of PAEs were in a range of <0.01-2 464 mg·kg^-1.The average concentration of 16 PAEs was 613 mg·kg^-1. Bis（2-ethylhexyl） phthalate （DEHP）， di-iso-butyl phthalate （DiBP）， di-n-butyl phthalate （DBP） and di-n-octyl phthalate （DnOP） were the main components of PAEs in indoor dust， accounting for approximately 99.5% of 16 PAEs. The intake of DEHP， DBP， DEP and BBP was lower than the tolerable daily intake （TDI） and reference doses （RfD） set by EU CSTEE and U.S. EPA. Conclusion Average daily dose （ADD） via indoor dust is estimated， and the order of intake through different pathways is hand-oral intake>skin contact>respiratory inhalation. Exposure risk of PAEs in children is greater than that in adults.
