Objective To investigate the associations between expression of Tensin1 protein and clinicpathological characteristics and prognoses of gastric cancer (GC) patients.Methods The retrospective casecontrol study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 163 GC patients who were admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University between July 31,2011 and December 31,2013 were collected.The GC tissues and adjacent normal tissues were taken to paraffin imbedding,and then were detected by immunohistochemistry.Observation indicator:(1) expressions of Tensinl protein in GC tissues and adjacent normal tissues;(2) association between expression of Tensinl protein in GC tissues and clinicopathological characteristics;(3) followup and survival situations;(4) prognostic factors analysis.Follow-up using telephone interview was performed to detect survival up to January 1,2017.Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range).Count data were analyzed using the chi-square test or pairing chi-square test.The survival curve and rate were respectively drawn and calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method,and Log-rank test was used for survival analysis.The univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were done using the COX roportional hazard model.Results (1) Expressions of Tensinl protein in GC tissues and adjacent normal tissues:immunohistochemistry showed that Tensinl protein in GC tissues and adjacent normal tissues mainly expressed in cytoplasm.Of 163 patients,154 (66 with high expression and 88 with low expression) and 9 had respectively positive and negative expressions of Tensinl protein in GC tissues;79 (37 with high expression and 42 with low expression) and 84 had respectively positive and negative expressions of Tensinl protein in adjacent normal tissues,with statistically significant differences in positive expression ratio and expression levels (x2=64.65,12.93,P＜0.05).(2) Association between expression of Tensinl protein in GC tissues and clinicopathological characteristics:high expression rate of Tensinl protein in GC tissues were respectively 31.34％ (21/67) in GC patients with tumor metastases and 46.88％ (45/96) in GC patients without tumor metastasis,with a statistically significant difference (x2 =3.95,P＜0.05).(3) Follow-up and survival situations:all the 163 patients were followed up for 3.3-64.7 months,with a median time of 28.7 months.The 3-year cumulative disease-free survival rate and cumulative overall survival rate in GC tissues were 63.12％,74.22％ in 66 patients with high expression of Tensinl protein and 47.30％,55.74％ in 97 patients with low and negative expressions of Tensin1 protein,showing statistically significant differences in above indicators (x2 =4.58,4.11,P＜0.05).Survival analysis of subgroups showed that 3-year cumulative disease-free survival rate in GC tissues of patients with maximum tumor dimension ≥ 5 cm,nerve and / or vascular invasions and stage Ⅲ of TNM staging were 45.98％,62.79％,52.75％ in patients with high expression of Tensin1 protein and 18.11％,31.10％,32.80％ in patients with low and negative expressions of Tensin1 protein,with a statistically significant difference (x2 =5.85,7.89,4.96,P＜0.05).The 3-year cumulative overall survival rate was respectively 66.00％,75.75％,67.93％ in patients with high expression of Tensin1 protein and 30.74％,40.15％,44.67％ in patients with low and negative expressions of Tensinl protein,with statistically significant differences (x2 =7.59,9.62,4.32,P ＜ 0.05).(4) Prognostic factors analysis:results of univariate analysis showed that maximum tumor dimension,histological grade,nerve and / or vascular invasions,postoperative TNM staging,postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and expression of Tensin1 protein were related factors affecting prognoses of GC patients [hazard ratio (HR) =3.66,2.45,2.17,3.36,0.41,0.54,95％ confidence interval (CI):2.09-6.41,1.43-4.19,1.17-4.04,1.52-7.41,0.23-0.72,0.31-0.96,P＜0.05].Results of multivariate analysis showed that maximum tumor dimension ≥ 5 cm and grade Ⅲ of histological grade were independent risk factors affecting prognoses of GC patients (HR=3.21,2.17,95％CI:1.63-6.32,1.18-3.99,P＜0.05),and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and high expression of Tensin1 protein were independent protective factors affecting prognoses of GC patients (HR=0.50,0.44,95％CI:0.28-0.90,0.24-0.82,P＜0.05).Conclusion High expression of Tensin1 protein may inhibit GC metastasis,and it is also an independent protective factor affecting prognoses of GC patients.

Objective:To explore the prediction model of tissue chip technology for the chemotherapy response of patients with colorectal cancer.Methods:217 patients with colorectal cancer who had received standardized chemotherapy in the Affiliated People’s Hospital of Ningbo University from Jan. 2017 to Dec. 2019 were prospectively selected. The patients were randomly divided into training set (152 cases) and test set (65 cases) according to the ratio of 7:3, and were followed up for 6 months. The clinical data of the patients in the training set were compared, the expression levels of Ang-2, caspase-3 and CD147 in the patients were analyzed by tissue microarray technology, and the related factors affecting the responsiveness of colorectal cancer chemotherapy were analyzed by the Logistic regression model. R software was used based on the training set. A nomogram prediction model was built and model performance on the test set was evaluated.Results:One case was excluded from the training center, and 151 cases were finally included, including 93 cases in the chemotherapy response group and 58 cases in the chemotherapy response group. The tumor diameter, serum carcinoembryonic antigen, caspase3, Ang2 expression level, and the proportion of clinical stage IV in the poor chemotherapy group were significantly higher than those in the good chemotherapy group (all P<0.05) ; Logistic regression showed tumor diameter ( OR=2.394), serum carcinoembryonic antigen ( OR=1.878), caspase-3 ( OR=4.261), Ang-2 expression level ( OR=5.457), and clinical stage IV ( OR=5.954) were independent risk factors for adverse drug reactions in patients with colorectal cancer (all P<0.05). The consistency index (C-index) for predicting the factors related to adverse chemotherapy reactions in patients with colorectal cancer was 0.915. External verification showed that the sensitivity was 86.96%, the specificity was 92.50%, and the accuracy was 90.48% (42/65) . Conclusion:The expression levels of Ang-2 and caspase-3 are correlated with the responsiveness of colorectal cancer to chemotherapy, and can be used as predictive indicators to evaluate the responsiveness of colorectal cancer to chemotherapy.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features of patients with severe dengue (SD) in Guangdong Province, and to improve the understanding of the diagnosis and treatment of SD in China.Methods:The clinical data, laboratory examination and etiological test results of 257 SD cases from 29 dengue fever designated hospitals in Guangdong Province from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2019 were respectively collected. The relevant indicators of the criteria for severe organ involvement were quantified. Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the risk factors for the development of multiple organ failure in SD patients.Results:Among the 257 SD patients, age was (64.1±20.1) years old, with 65.4%(168/257) of them ≥60 years old, 142 were male and 115 were female. One hundred and fifty-two (59.1%) patients had underlying conditions, including 115(44.7%) patients with hypertension. The clinical manifestations were mainly fever (98.4%(253/257)), fatigue (70.0%(180/257)), cough or expectoration (44.4%(114/257)), lethargy or irritability (39.3%(101/257)), vomiting (30.4%(78/257)), abdominal pain or tenderness (20.6%(53/257)), hepatomegaly (2.3%(6/257)), bleeding tendency (59.5%(153/257)), and pleural effusion or ascites (43.6%(112/257)). Platelet count levels were decreased in 90.9%(231/254) of the cases, and 97.1%(234/241) of patients had normal or decreased hematocrit. The most common of severe manifestations were severe organ involvement (61.1%(157/257)), followed by severe bleeding (37.0%(95/257)) and severe plasma leakage (30.0%(77/257)). Severe organ involvements were more common in the kidney (27.6%(71/257)) and heart (26.8%(69/257)). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age (odds ratio ( OR)=1.051, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 1.004 to 1.100, P=0.035), hypertension ( OR=5.224, 95% CI 1.272 to 21.462, P=0.022), elevated aspartate aminotransferase (AST) level ( OR=1.002, 95% CI 1.001 to 1.003, P=0.001), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) ( OR=1.050, 95% CI 1.005 to 1.098, P=0.030), and international normalized ratio (INR) ( OR=4.604, 95% CI 1.601 to 13.238, P=0.005) were risk factors for the development of multiple organ failure in SD patients. The detection results of serum samples form 113 SD patients in acute phase showed that dengue virus (DENV)-1 accounted for 89.4%(101/113), DENV-2 accounted for 9.7%(11/113), and DENV-3 accounted for 0.9% (1/113). Conclusions:Elderly and those with co-existing conditions such as hypertension in SD patients in Guangdong Province are more common. Severe organ involvement such as kidney and heart is the main cause of SD. DENV-1 infection is predominant. Significant elevated levels of AST, BUN and INR may be related to a poor prognosis.
