Objective To explore the correlation of MET status in patients with advanced prostatic acinar adenocarcinoma with the clinical pathological parameters and prognosis. Methods The specimen from 135 patients with advanced prostatic acinar adenocarcinoma was included. The expression of c-MET protein was detected via immunohistochemistry, and MET gene amplification was assessed by fluorescence in situ hybridization. The relationships of c-MET expression and gene amplification with clinicopathological features and prognosis were analyzed. Results The positive expression rate of c-MET was 52.60% (71/135). Compared with the c-MET expression in adjacent tissues, that in tumor tissues showed lower heterogeneous expression. Among the cases, 1.71% (2/117) exhibited MET gene polyploidy, but no gene amplification was detected. Positive c-MET expression was significantly correlated with high Gleason scores and grade groups (P=0.0073). However, no significant relationship was found between c-MET expression and progression-free survival or post-treatment t-PSA levels. Conclusion c-MET protein is expressed at a relatively low level in advanced prostatic acinar adenocarcinoma, suggesting that c-MET may not be a viable target for ADC drug development in prostatic acinar adenocarcinoma.

OBJECTIVE To investigate whether aldo-keto reductases(AKRs)can act as a nitrore-ductase(NR)and bioactivate aristolochic acid Ⅰ(AA-Ⅰ)to produce AA-Ⅰ-DNA adducts.METHODS① Human-induced hepatocytes(hiHeps)and human bladder RT4 cells were used as tool cells and treated with AA-Ⅰ0,0.5,1.0 and 2 μmol·L-1 for 24 h.Cell viability was detected using the CCK-8 method,and the half maximal inhibition concentration(IC50)was calculated using the CCK-8 method and the level of DNA adduct production was calculated.②hiHeps and RT4 cells were treated with AKR inhibitor luteotin(0,5,10 and 25 μmol·L-1)+AA-Ⅰ 0.2 and 1.0 μmol·L-1 for 24 h,respectively,and the levels of DNA adducts were detected by a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometer(LC-MS/MS).③hiHeps cells were incubated with 80 nmol·L-1 small interfering RNAs(si-AKRs)for 48 h and treated with AA-Ⅰ1.0 μmol·L-1 for 24 h.Real-time qualitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method was used to detect the mRNA expression of AKRs gene and LC-MS/MS technology was used to investigate the effect of specific AKR gene knockdown on DNA adduct levels.④500 nmol·L-1 human AKR recombinant proteins AKR1A1 and AA-Ⅰwere incubated in vitro under anaerobic conditions and the formation of AA-Ⅰ-DNA adducts was detected.RESULTS ①The IC50 of AA-Ⅰto hiHeps and RT4 cells was 1.9 and 0.42 μmol·L-1,respec-tively.The level of DNA adduct production of the two cell lines was significantly different(P<0.01).② Luteolin≥5 μmol·L-1 significantly inhibited the production of AA-Ⅰ-DNA adducts in both cells(P<0.05),and there was a concentration-dependent effect in hiHeps cells(P<0.01,R=0.84).③In the AKR family,the knockdown of AKR1A1 gene up to 80%inhibited the generation of AA-Ⅰ-DNA adducts by 30%-40%.④The AA-Ⅰ-DNA adducts were detected in the incubation of recombinant protein AKR1A1 and AA-Ⅰ under anaerobic conditions in vitro,approximately 1 adduct per 107 nucleotides.CONCLU-SION AKR1A1 is involved in AA-Ⅰ bioactivation,providing a reference for elucidation of the carcino-genic mechanism of AA-Ⅰ.

Objective:To explore the sleep status and impact factor analysis of patients in clinical trials of antineoplastic drugs, and provide a basis for improving the sleep status and impact analysis of patients in clinical trials of antineoplastic drugs.Methods:From April to May 2023, 107 oncology patients in the Phase I Clinical Trial Ward of the Affiliated East Hospital of Tongji University were selected as the research objects by convenient sampling method. The general information questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index Scale (PSQI), Numeric rating scale (NRS), Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7) and Depression Self-Ration Tool Scale (PHQ-9). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis methods were used to carry out a cross-sectional investigation and the relevant factors affecting patients′sleep.Results:Totally 103 questionnaires were effectively collected. The 103 patients′ age ranged from 20 to 75 years old, including 61 males and 42 females. 47.57% (49/103) patients in clinical trials of antineoplastic drugs had abnormal sleep. The average score of patients (PSQI) (7.66 ± 3.93) was higher than the average score of the domestic norm (3.88 ± 2.52), and there was significant statistical difference ( t = 9.76, P<0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that pain ( OR = 3.004, 95% CI 1.135-7.948, P<0.05) and trial cycle ( OR = 0.432, 95% CI 0.191-0.978, P<0.05) were significant risk factors for abnormal sleep quality. Conclusions:The incidence of abnormal sleep quality in patients of clinical trials of antineoplastic drugs is high, but the sleep quality is poor. The factors that affect the sleep quality of patients in clinical trials of antineoplastic drugs are mainly related to the patient′s trial cycle and cancer pain. According to these characteristics, individualized programs should be developed to improve the sleep quality of patients with advanced cancer, so as to improve the quality of life of patients with advanced cancer.

Objective:To explore the effect of communication competence and psychological resilience on job burnout among Operating Room nurses.Methods:From March to June 2023, randomized clustering sampling was used to select 138 registered Operating Room nurses from four ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Taizhou for investigation. The survey was conducted using the general information questionnaire, Operating Room Nurses' Job Stressor Scale, Chinese version of the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, Nurses' Clinic Communication Competence Scale, and Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey. Hierarchical linear regression analysis was used to explore the effects of communication competence and psychological resilience on job burnout among Operating Room nurses.Results:A total of 138 questionnaires were sent out, and 133 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 96.38% (133/138). Among 133 Operating Room nurses, the job burnout score was (56.35±9.28), and the communication competence, psychological resilience, and work stress scale scores were (196.71±18.92), (78.09±18.31), and (96.37±22.47), respectively. Pearson correlation showed that job burnout among Operating Room nurses was negatively correlated with psychological resilience ( r=-0.475, P<0.01) and communication competence ( r=-0.241, P<0.01), and positively correlated with work stress ( r=0.360, P<0.01). Hierarchical linear regression analysis showed that, after controlling for other variables, psychological resilience and communication competence were the influencing factors of job burnout among Operating Room nurses ( P<0.01), which could explain 17.70% of the variation. Conclusions:The level of job burnout among Operating Room nurses is relatively high, and psychological resilience and communication competence are independent influencing factors. Managers can provide psychological counseling and support services for Operating Room nurses, offer communication competence training programs, and prevent and reduce job burnout among Operating Room nurses.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of oral-nasal oxygen supply mouth guard in painless gastroscopy for snoring patients.Methods:The snoring patients who underwent painless gastroscopy at two Endoscopy Centers of Shanghai East Hospital, Tongji University in July 2022 were randomly divided into the observation group (using oral-nasal oxygen supply mouth guard) and the control group (using ordinary nasal oxygen tube and mouth guard). Parameters such as the wearing time and the removal time of the mouth guard, lowest pulse oxygen saturation (SpO 2), incidence of hypoxemia, and the satisfaction of medical staff were compared between the two groups. Results:The wearing time of mouth guard was 11.63±0.84 seconds and the removal time was 5.33±0.76 seconds in the observation group ( n=40), which were lower than those in the control group ( n=47) (14.91±1.21 seconds, t=-14.463, P<0.001; 10.38±0.80 seconds, t=-30.095, P<0.001). The wearing satisfaction score was 9.80±0.61, the lowest SpO 2 was (96.70±3.42)%, the removal satisfaction score was 9.75±0.67, and the anesthesiologists' satisfaction score was 9.20±1.42 in the observation group, which were higher than those in the control group [7.70±0.93, t=12.209, P<0.001; (94.06±3.72)%, t=3.417, P=0.001; 7.96±0.98, t=9.803, P<0.001; 8.13±1.35, t=3.615, P=0.001] with significant difference. There was no significant difference in the incidence of hypoxemia [10.00% (4/40) VS 14.89% (7/47), χ2=0.130, P=0.718] and endoscopic physician satisfaction score (9.30±0.97 VS 9.02±1.31, t=1.112, P=0.269) between the two groups. Conclusion:The oral-nasal oxygen supply mouth guard is easy to wear and remove, effectively reducing SpO 2 fluctuations during painless gastroscopy for snoring patients. It can enhance medical staff satisfaction with high clinical value.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of colorectal cancer patients with different mismatch repair (MMR) statuses and their correlation with KRAS/NRAF/BRAF (KNB) gene mutations. Methods The clinicopathological data of 477 patients with colorectal cancer were collected, and MMR, microsatellite instability (MSI), and KNB status were detected via immunohistochemistry (IHC), PCR–capillary electrophoresis, and next-generation sequencing (NGS), respectively. The clinicopathological features of patients with different MMR statuses and correlations with KNB mutations were analyzed. Results Compared with the patients in the pMMR group, the patients in the classical dMMR group were younger, included more females, and exhibited more tumors in the right colon, mostly mucinous adenocarcinoma and poorly differentiated tumors (all P<0.05). The tumors in the nonclassical dMMR group were commonly found in the right colon and were prone to special histologic types (all P<0.05). MLH1-PMS2 codeletion, BRAF mutation, and KRAS G13 codon mutation were common in patients in both the classical and the nonclassical dMMR groups (both P<0.05). The results of MMR IHC (100%) were highly consistent with those of MSI PCR (99.1%). Patients in the classical dMMR group with KRAS mutations were younger, included more males, and were prone to specific histologic types, but distant metastasis was rare (all P<0.05). Conversely, lymph node metastasis was rare in patients in the nonclassical dMMR group with KRAS mutations (P=0.005). The mutation rate of the MSH6 gene was relatively high in the nonclassical dMMR group (P=0.002), and all patients presented complete deletion of MLH1-PMS2 combined with nonclassical expression of MSH6 (100%). Five patients with medullary carcinoma components had complete deletions of MLH1-PMS2. Among the five patients, three had combined nonclassical expression of MSH2/MSH6. Two of the three patients carried the MSH6 gene c.3261 locus mutation. Conclusion The clinicopathologic features of patients with classical/nonclassical dMMR colorectal cancer differ from those of patients with pMMR, and MMR IHC could be used to predict effectively the MSI status. The clinicopathologic features differ between classical and nonclassical dMMR colorectal cancer patients with KRAS mutations, but both groups present codeletion of MLH1-PMS2, BRAF mutation, and KRAS G13 codon mutation. In patients with nonclassical dMMR, complete deletion of MLH1-PMS2 combined with nonclassical expression of MSH6 is common. Mutations in the MSH6 gene may play a key role in the development of colorectal cancer with medullary carcinoma components.
