Gastric cancer is a common malignant tumor with complex pathological mechanisms， a low early diagnosis rate， and a high mortality rate. However， surgical treatment， targeted therapy， and chemotherapy have their treatment limitations and toxic side effects. Therefore， exploring the pathogenesis and mechanism of gastric cancer and finding effective treatment methods are important. At present， researches has found that tumor epithelial cells exhibit individual differences in molecular characteristics and exhibit metabolic heterogeneity that affects cell phenotype and function. The interaction between metabolites and cytokines can inhibit the formation of the tumor immune microenvironment and promote malignant progression. Therefore， metabolic reprogramming is regarded as a key feature of tumors and plays an important role in the process of tumor occurrence and development. However， the continuous deterioration of gastric cancer may be closely related to changes in the energy metabolism of cancer cells. Gastric cancer cells may regulate the dysregulation of synthesis or decomposition pathways such as glucose metabolism， amino acid metabolism， lipid metabolism， and nucleotide metabolism and activate associated signaling pathways， key proteins， and genes， leading to proliferation， invasion， and metastasis of cancer cells. In recent years， there has been a close relationship between the effective intervention by traditional Chinese medicine in gastric cancer and the regulation of metabolic reprogramming. There has been some progress in the intervention research on effective ingredients and formulas of traditional Chinese medicine for cancer. This article summarized existing Chinese and foreign literature on how gastric cancer cells affect disease progression by regulating their related metabolic networks， such as glucose metabolism， amino acid metabolism， lipid metabolism， and nucleotide metabolism， as well as how effective ingredients and formulas of traditional Chinese medicine enhance anti-tumor effects through targeted metabolism. It reviewed metabolic reprogramming intervention in gastric cancer， providing a reference for research on metabolic reprogramming regulation by traditional Chinese medicine and new targets and strategies for the treatment and prognosis of gastric cancer.

Objective To explore the biological function and downstream mechanism of ETS1 in glioma.Methods Bioinformatics and immunohistochemistry were used to analyze the differential expression characteristics of ETS1 in gliomas;qRT-PCR was employed to detect the expression level of ETS1 mRNA and lncRNA X-inactive specific transcript(XIST).CCK-8 and 5-ethyl-2′-deoxyuridine experiments were conducted to detect cell growth.Western blot was used to detect the expression of apoptosis-related proteins(Bax,Bak,Bcl-2).PROMO database was utilized to predict the binding sites between ETS1 and XIST promoter.Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay and chromatin immunoprecipitation-quantitative polymerase chain reaction assays were performed to verify the binding relationship between ETS1 and the XIST promoter region.cBioPortal database was used to analyze the correlation between the expression of ETS1 mRNA and XIST in glioma tissues.Results The expression levels of ETS1 mRNA and protein were significantly upregulated in glioma(P<0.05).The depletion of ETS1 significantly inhibited the proliferation of glioma cells and promoted cell apoptosis(P<0.05).ETS1 could target and bind with the XIST promoter and promote the expression of XIST(P<0.05).The overexpression of XIST reversed the effects of ETS1 on the proliferation of glioma cells and the promotion of cell apoptosis(P<0.05).Conclusion ETS1 is highly expressed in glioma tissues.It could promote the expression of lncRNA XIST,boost the proliferation of glioma cells,and inhibit cell apoptosis.

Objective:To explore the independent risk factors of portal vein thrombosis (PVT) in liver cirrhosis, and to establish and evaluate a risk prediction model for PVT in patients with cirrhosis.Methods:A total of 295 cases of cirrhosis hospitalized in Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from December 2019 to October 2021 were divided into a modeling set ( n=207) and an internal validation set ( n=88) by the random number table. In addition, patients with cirrhosis hospitalized in Yichang Central People's Hospital, Wuhan Puren Hospital, No.2 People's Hospital of Fuyang City and People's Hospital of China Three Gorges University during the same period were collected as an external validation set ( n=92). The modeling set was divided into PVT group ( n=56) and non-PVT group ( n=151). Univariate analysis was used to preliminarily screen the related indicators of PVT, and then multivariate logistic regression analysis with forward stepwise regression was used to determine independent risk factors for PVT. A nomogram prediction model was constructed based on the independent risk factors obtained. The internal and external validation set were used to verify the predictive ability of the model. Distinction degree was used to evaluate the ability of the model to distinguish patients with or without PVT. Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test was used to evaluate the consistency between predicted risk and the actual risk of the model. Results:Univariate analysis showed that smoking, history of splenectomy, trans-jugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS), gastrointestinal bleeding and endoscopic variceal treatment, and levels of hemoglobin, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and D-dimer were significantly different between the PVT group and the non-PVT group ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis found that smoking ( P=0.020, OR=31.21, 95% CI: 1.71-569.40), levels of D-dimer ( P=0.003, OR=1.12, 95% CI: 1.04-1.20) and hemoglobin ( P=0.039, OR=0.99, 95% CI: 0.97-1.00), history of TIPS ( P=0.011, OR=18.04, 95% CI: 1.92-169.90) and endoscopic variceal treatment ( P=0.001, OR=3.21, 95% CI: 1.59-6.50) were independent risk factors for PVT in patients with liver cirrhosis. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) for the internal validation set was 0.802 (95% CI: 0.709-0.895) ( P<0.001), and the AUC for the external validation set was 0.811 (95% CI: 0.722-0.900) ( P<0.001). Both AUC were larger than 0.75. The calibration curve of Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test showed that the P values of both internal validation set ( χ2=3.602, P=0.891) and the external validation set ( χ2=11.025, P=0.200) were larger than 0.05. Conclusion:Smoking, history of TIPS or endoscopic variceal treatment, levels of D-dimer and hemoglobin are independent risk factors for PVT in patients with liver cirrhosis. The prediction nomogram model based on the above factors has strong predictive ability.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided coil embolization combined with endoscopic cyanoacrylate injection for gastric fundal varices with large spontaneous shunt.Methods:Data of 24 patients with gastric fundal varices with large spontaneous shunt (the smallest diameter was 5-15 mm) treated by EUS-guided coil embolization combined with endoscopic cyanoacrylate injection in Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from December 2016 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The short-term efficacy (the rates of technical success, five-day rebleeding and six-week mortality) and long-term efficacy (the rates of one-year rebleeding, one-year mortality and three-year mortality) and safety (ectopic embolism) were evaluated.Results:The technical success rate was 91.7% (22/24), and the five-day rebleeding rate was 0 (0/22). Computed tomography angiography of portal vein reexamined 2 days after the treatment showed embolism of splenic vein in 1 patient (4.5%). The median follow-up time was 14.9 months (ranging 1.0-48.6 months) and 2 patients were lost during follow-up. The six-week mortality was 0 (0/20), and the one-year rebleeding rate was 35.0% (7/20). Among 12 patients who underwent endoscopy in the follow-up, 5 had aggravation of esophageal varices, and 5 had aggravation of portal hypertension gastropathy. The one-year and three-year mortalities were 5.0% (1/20) and 20.0% (4/20), respectively, neither of which was related to such events as bleeding or ectopic embolism.Conclusion:EUS-guided coil embolization combined with endoscopic cyanoacrylate injection for gastric fundal varices with large spontaneous shunt is effective and safe in short term, with a low rate of ectopic embolism. Long-term efficacy and safety need to be further confirmed.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of lactulose combined with polyethylene glycol for bowel preparation before colonoscopy in patients of different risks.Methods:A total of 208 patients undergoing colonoscopy were enrolled, including 108 high-risk and 100 low-risk patients. The high-risk patients were divided into group A (54 taking lactulose + polyethylene glycol) and group B (54 taking polyethylene glycol), and the low-risk patients were divided into group C (49 taking lactulose + polyethylene glycol) and group D (51 taking polyethylene glycol). The Boston bowel preparation score, cecal intubation time, withdrawal time, the detection rate of colonic polyps and adenoma, and the incidence of adverse reactions were observed.Results:Among the high-risk patients, the Boston bowel preparation score and adenoma detection rate in group A [(6.35±1.15) scores, 46.3%] were significantly higher than those in group B [(5.76±0.89) scores, 22.2%, both P<0.05], and the first defecation interval in group A was significantly shorter than that in group B [(1.20±0.85) h VS (3.29 ± 2.93) h, P<0.05]. There was no significant difference in adequate bowel preparation rate, polyp detection rate, frequency of defecation or incidence of adverse reactions between group A and B. In the low-risk patients, the first defecation interval in group C was significantly shorter than that in group D [(1.65 ± 1.35) h VS (3.42 ± 2.64) h, P<0.05], and the incidence of adverse reactions was significantly lower than that in group D (44.9% VS 64.7%, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in adequate bowel preparation rate, Boston bowel preparation score, adenoma detection rate, polyp detection rate or frequency of defecation between group C and D. Conclusion:For the high-risk patients, the effect of lactulose combined with polyethylene glycol for bowel cleansing is better than that of traditional polyethylene glycol in the improvement of the Boston bowel preparation score, adenoma detection rate, and the first defecation interval. For low-risk patients, lactulose combined with polyethylene glycol regimen has few advantages over traditional polyethylene glycol regimen.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of different endoscopic treatment strategies for grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ internal hemorrhoids.Methods:Clinical data of 107 internal hemorrhoid patients who received endoscopic sclerotherapy or band ligation in Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from December 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively studied. Postoperative adverse events, efficacy, and satisfaction were followed up.Results:Among the 107 patients, there were 45 patients (42.06%) with grade Ⅰ, 55 (52.34%) with grade Ⅱ, and 6 (5.60%) with grade Ⅲ. At the same time, 94.39% (101/107) patients underwent other gastrointestinal endoscopic treatment. The postoperative follow-up time ranged from 3 to 25 months, with a median of 5 months. A total of 84 patients underwent routine endoscopic injection sclerotherapy, and 8 had adverse events after the surgery. The overall effective rate was 97.61% (82/84), and satisfaction rate was 95.24% (80/84). Nine underwent endoscopic foam sclerotherapy, and no postoperative adverse events were observed. The overall effective rate and the satisfaction rate were both 100.00% (9/9). Among the 11 patients undergoing endoscopic band ligation, 2 had adverse events after the surgery. The overall effective rate was 81.82% (9/11), and the satisfaction rate was 72.73% (8/11). Three patients underwent sclerotherapy combined with ligation, and 2 had postoperative adverse events. The overall effective rate was 100.00% (3/3), and the satisfaction rate was 66.67% (2/3). Sclerotherapy was generally superior to ligation in operation cost. Further subgroup analysis for grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients showed that for grade Ⅰ patients, sclerotherapy was better than band ligation in the incidence of postoperative pain ( P<0.05), and for grade Ⅱ patients, no statistically significant differences were observed in adverse events, effective rate and satisfaction rate ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Both endoscopic injection sclerotherapy and band ligation for internal hemorrhoids are safe and effective, and may not increase the risk of adverse events when simultaneously completed with other gastrointestinal endoscopic treatment.

Methods: A total of 164 patients, diagnosed with COVID-19 and admitted to Guangzhou Eighth People's Hospital from January to February 2020, were selected as the research group and divided into three groups (ordinary, severe, and critically severe pneumonia) according to the disease severity. Meandwhile 66 non-infected patients during the same period were selected as negative control group. The expressions of WBC, LYM, CRP, SAA, and PCT were retrospective studied and compared between groups. The diagnostic values of WBC, CRP, SAA and the combination of these three markers in all patients with COVID-19 and in different severity groups were analyzed by ROC curve. Results: Compared with control group (WBC count :8.13(6.51,9.42)×10⁹/L, LYM count:2.00(1.28,2.43)×10⁹/L), WBC count [4.94(4.05, 6.67) ×10⁹/L] and LYM count [1.33(0.94, 1.96) ×10⁹/L] of COVID-19 patients were significantly reduced (Z=-7.435, P<0.01; Z=-4.906, P<0.01) . Compared with the control group [CRP: 1.36 (0.57~5.67) mg/ml; SAA:[4.98 (4.80~15.75) mg/mL], CRP [7.93 (2.45~23.98) mg/ml] and SAA [34.13 (4.83~198.40) mg/ml] were increased in research group (Z=-5.72, P<0.01; Z=-4.166, P<0.01) . PCT in the control group and the research group were 0.100 0(0.030 6~0.100 0)ng/ml and 0.044 5(0.031 6~0.077 0)ng/ml, respectively. There was no statistical difference between two groups (Z=-1.451, P=0.147) . The areas under the ROC curve (AUC) of WBC, CRP and SAA in patients with COVID-19 were 0.814, 0.742, 0.673, respectively (P<0.01), while the AUC of the combination of three indexes for COVID-19 diagnosis was 0.882, with 83.33%(55/66) specificity and 84.76% (139/164) sensitivity, P<0.01.The AUCs of WBC, CRP, and SAA for predicting severe and critically severe COVID-19 were 0.799, 0.779, and 0.886 , respectively (P<0.01), and the AUC of the combination of three indexes for the diagnosis of severe and critically severe COVID-19 was 0.924, with 78.67% (118/150) specificity and 14/14 sensitivity (P<0.01). Conclusion Combining detection of WBC, CRP and SAA can improve the specificity and sensitivity of COVID-19 diagnosis, with a high diagnostic value for severe and critically severe COVID-19.

Objective To discuss the safety and clinical efficacy of modified traction method using endoloop and clip for endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD).Methods Fifty patients who underwent ESD at Renmin Hosptial of Wuhan University between August 2016 and February 2017 were randomly divided into two groups, including 25 patients in modified ESD group and 25 patients in conventional ESD group as control. The therapeutic conditions, dissection time and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups. Results In the modified ESD group, the dissection time of submucosal exposure to the full dissection (19. 9±6. 5 min VS 26. 4±9. 2 min, P＝0. 001), total dissection time (27. 5±8. 1 min VS 35. 1± 10. 7 min, P＝0. 003), and dissection time per unit area (2. 4±1. 1 min/cm2VS 3. 3±1. 3 min/cm2, P＝0. 009) were significantly shorter compared with those in the control group. There were 1 case of delayed bleeding in the modified group and 2 cases in the control group with no significant difference ( P＝0. 248). No perforation occurred. Conclusion The modified traction method using endoloop and clip for ESD is safe and effective with a shorter operation time.

Through the discussion of the basic components and development of experimental animal ethical education and the effect of strengthening animal ethical education on comprehensive experimental teaching of preclinical medicine,this paper analyzed the status of animal ethical education in the comprehensive experimental teaching of preclinical medicine,and pointed out the medical students' existing problems of animal ethical education in the comprehensive experimental teaching of preclinical medicine,including that they didn't understand the real meaning of animal experiments and the experimental attitude was not correct;they ignored the feelings of experimental animals and increased the pain of experimental animals;school did not provide specialized animal ethics education and related animal ethics research was inadequate.And this paper put forward the countermeasures aiming at the as follows,teachers need to expound animal ethics knowledge before the experiment,strengthen experimental operation management and standardize the operation of animal experiments;the teachers should teach by personal example and verbal instruction and pay attention to animal ethical education in the experimental teaching process.
