Objective: To examine the causal relationship between inflammatory factors and breast cancer using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach, so as to provide the basis for the prevention and treatment of breast cancer. Methods: Data of 91 inflammatory cytokines (n=14 824) and 5 subtypes of breast cancer (n=247 173) were collected from genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) associated with 91 inflammatory factors were selected as instrumental variables. MR analyses were performed using the inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method with inflammatory factors as exposure factors and breast cancer as outcome variables. The risk of type I error and the effect of multiple testing were reduced using the FDR correction method. The stability and reliability of the results were verified using Steiger test of directionality, MR-Egger regression, MR-PRESSO test and leave-one out method. Results: Twenty-three inflammatory factors, including β nerve growth factor, interleukin-5, cystatin D and C-X-C chemokine ligand 1 were statistically associated with breast cancer (all P<0.05). After FDR adjustment, only evaluated abundance of oncostatin-M was found to be statistically associated with an increased risk of Basal-like (triple-negative) breast cancer (OR=1.186, 95%CI: 1.081-1.302, P=0.001, q=0.029), and the other 22 inflammatory factors had a high risk of type I error (all q>0.1). The sensitivity analysis indicated that the results were robust. No instrumental variables were found to have a significant impact on the results, which could exclude the influence of heterogeneity, horizontal pleiotropy, and reverse causality on the outcome. Conclusion The increased abundance of oncostatin-M may increase the risk of Basal-like (triple-negative) breast cancer.

Objective To investigate the safety and effectiveness of Glifeet in bowel preparation before colonoscopy.Methods A prospective,single blind,randomized controlled trial of patients undergoing colonos-copy was conducted.A total of 67 inpatients were randomized to the control group,who received a low-residue and semiliquid diet (n =31)and the experimental group,who received Glifeet all day (n =36)before the proce-dure.All patients took polyethylene glycol electrolyte powder 1 000 ml at 7 pm on the day before colonoscopy and 2 000 ml at 8 am on the examination day.Bowel preparation quality was scored using the Boston Bowel Prepara-tion Scale (BBPS).Side effects were also observed.Results The time of the first bowel movement of the experi-mental group was significantly shorter [(77.43 ±54.21)min VS (149.35 ±118.15)min,P =0.002].An in-creased defecating frequency was observed in the experimental group,but there was no significant difference when compared with the control group (11.44 ±6.95 VS 8.74 ±3.58,P =0.055).Patient tolerance and acceptance did not differ.There was no significant difference in BBPS between the two groups.But the bowel preparation quality of the right colon was significantly better in the experimental group (2.56 ±0.50 VS 2.23 ±0.81,P =0.045). Conclusion Glifeet could meet the needs of basic energy in most patients for colonoscopy.Furthermore,Glifeet is well tolerated and can partially improve the quality of bowel preparation.

Objective To evaluate the effect of oxidative injury induced by peroxide oxidase on Klotho expression in mouse renal tubular epithelial cells (TCMK-1) and to explore the possible pathway.Methods TCMK-1 cells were exposed to H2O2 of different concentrations.Reactive oxygen species (ROS) was examined byflow cytometrry.Cell viability was assessed by CCK-8.Cell apoptosis was evaluated by flow cytometry and Hoechst 33258 staining.The expression of Klotho,apoptosis-associated proteins and anti-oxidant enzymes were determined by Western blotting.Results Compared with control group,after H2O2 stimulating TCMK-1 cell,ROS was dramatically elevated (all P ＜ 0.05) and the expression of anti-oxidant enzymes,SOD2 and CAT went down (all P ＜ 0.05);the expression of Klotho was inhibited (all P ＜ 0.05);cell viability of TCMK-1 cells was decreased (all P ＜ 0.05) in a dose-dependent manner (0.3 to 0.9 mmol/L);cell apoptosis was significantly increased in TCMK-1 cells following the concentration of H2O2 (all P ＜ 0.05);Bax/Bcl-2 and the phosphororation of JNK and p38 were obviously elevated in TCMK-1 by H2O2 induction (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Oxidative injuries induced by H2O2 significantly suppresses the expression of Klotho in TCMK-1 cells.And cell apoptosis was increased,p38 and JNK pathway was activated.

Objective To investigate the regularity and predictors of weight loss during concurrent chemo-radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients. Methods A retrospective study was carried out on 82 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma ,with average age of 45 years ,who received concurrent chemoradiotherapy at the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University. Paired t-test was used to analyze the weight loss pattern during chemoradiotherapy. The Spearman′s rank correlation analysis was used to investigate the correlation between high weight loss(HWL)and the clinical factors. Results The paired t-test showed that the weight of the patients decreased continuously every week during chemoradiotherapy(P < 0.05),and the value dropped most significantly during the 4th week. Among these 82 patients,32 were determined as HWL(weight loss > 10%). Spearman′s rank correlation analysis showed that HWL was associated with older age,female,higher T and TNM stage,3D-CRT technology,the higher dose of radiotherapy in nasopharynx and in neck lymph node,and decreases of leukopenia and hemoglobin over degree Ⅱ(P<0.05). Conlousions Weight may decrease continuously every week during chemoradiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients. Age,gender,T stage,TNM stage,radio-therapy dose,and leukopenia and hemoglobin decreases may be predictors for weight loss degree during concurrent chemoradiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of children with high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) receiving lasting remission after severe infection.Methods:The data of 3 children with high-risk ALL who were treated in Children's Hospital Affiliated of Zhengzhou University in 2014, 2015 and 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. The clinical and laboratory characteristics of all patients were also analyzed, and the relevant literatures were reviewed.Results:All 3 children were clinically classified as high-risk ALL with severe infection. A variety of anti-infective drugs and blood products were used in the treatment, and all achieved lasting remission.Conclusions:Children with high-risk ALL after severe infection can acquire lasting remission, which may be related with the production of infection stimulating inflammatory factors and cytokines to activate certain immune pathways, or various kinds of antibiotics, blood products participating in the immune regulation to make the body regain the immune surveillance function of the tumor cells.

Objective To study the characteristic of acoustically short latency negative response (ASNR) in auditory brainstem response (ABR) evoked by tone burst in children with hearing loss. Methods ABRs to click and tone burst were recorded from 0～6 years old children with hearing loss using SmartEP auditory evoked potential system. The threshold and latency was analyzed if ASNR was recorded. Results Among all the 80 ears tested, ASNR were recorded in 7 ears (8.75%) when using click, and in 40 ears (50%) when using tone burst. ASNR was most frequently evoked by 1 kHz tone burst (in 37 ears), and 2 kHz (in 25 ears) was the second. Among the ears with ASNR, the lowest threshold of ABR wave V was 65 dB nHL. The lowest threshold of ASNR was 80dB nHL. The latencies of ASNR for 0.5,1,2 and 4 kHz tone burst was 6～8, 5～7,3～5 and 3～4 ms, respectively. The latency decreased along with the increase of intensity. Conclusion ASNR can be recorded while recording tone-burst ABR, but it has no effect in predicting hearing level using the wave V threshold of tone-burst ABR.

creatinine concentration. Conclusion Bisphosphonates can decrease serum total calcium levels in hypercalcemia crisis caused by PHPT effectivelywith mild adverse events.

Objective:To explore whether Internet continuous nursing can reduce anxiety and depression, chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, improve treatment compliance and reduce adverse reactions in patients with colorectal cancer undergoing oxaliplatin chemotherapy.Methods:A total of 69 patients with colorectal cancer in the Department of oncology, General Hospital of Northern War Zone from July 2019 to June 2020 were selected and divided into the observation group (34 cases) and the control group (35 cases) by random digits table method. The control group was given conventional nursing mode, and the observation group was given Internet continuity nursing mode. All patients were followed up to 3 months after the end of chemotherapy. The basic information, treatment anxiety and depression, chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, compliance, incidence of adverse reactions and patient satisfaction of the two groups were compared.Results:There was no significant difference in the anxiety and depression before and after chemotherapy, chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy after chemotherapy( P>0.05). After 3 months of chemotherapy, the anxiety and depression and chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy were (20. 97± 3.46),(14.27 ± 1.14) points in the observation group, and (24. 99 ± 1.11),(18.16 ± 2.55) points in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 3.80, 5.09, P<0.05). In the control group, there were 19 cases of regular review, 20 cases of persistent chemotherapy, 21 cases of disease awareness, 21 cases of scientific diet, 19 cases of psychological compliance and 19 cases of self-protection. In the observation group, there were 28 cases of regular review, 29 cases of persistent chemotherapy, 30 cases of disease awareness, 28 cases of scientific diet, 30 cases of psychological compliance and 28 cases of self-protection. The treatment compliance in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (χ 2 values were 4.186-9.657, P<0.05). In the control group, there were 7 cases of peripheral neurotoxicity, 2 cases of acute laryngopharyngeal paresthesia, 18 cases of gastrointestinal reaction and 4 cases of hematotoxicity. Fourteen cases of gastrointestinal reaction in the observation group. The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was lower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 8.26, P<0.05). In the control group, 6 were very satisfied, 27 were satisfied and 2 were good.The observation group was very satisfied and satisfied with 16 people and 18 people. The satisfaction in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z value was 1.853, P<0.05). Conclusions:Internet continuous nursing can effectively reduce the anxiety and depression of patients and chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, improve the treatment compliance of patients, reduce the adverse reactions after medication, and improve the quality of life of patients, which is worthy of application and promotion.

Objective: To understand the trends in malnutrition among primary and middle school students of Han nationality in Hainan Province from 2005 to 2019, so as to provide a basis for improving nutrition intervention measures for children and adolescents. Methods: A sample of 32 949 Han nationality primary and middle school students aged 7-18 years old in Hainan Province were investigated in 2005, 2010, 2014 and 2019 based on national survey on student physical fitness and health. The Malnutrition Screening Standard of Schoolage Children and Adolescents was used to screen malnutrition. Statistical analysis was performed using the χ2 test and the χ2trend test. Results: In the four surveys conducted during 2005 to 2019, the prevalence of malnutrition among primary and middle school students were 22.12%, 18.80%, 15.89% and 9.56%, respectively, with an increase of -12.56% and an average annual increase of -5.82%. The decreasing trend of malnutrition by year was statistically significant (χ2trend=600.72, P<0.01), and the proportion of emaciation type was the highest (8.87%-20.15%). The detection rates of malnutrition among all students aged 7 to 18 showed a decreasing trend from 2005 to 2019 (χ2trend=56.44, 60.04, 61.48, 42.49, 51.81, 50.81, 72.86, 101.34, 86.38, 24.81, 17.72, 10.38, P<0.01). From 2005 to 2019, the detection rates of malnutrition in boys were higher than that of girls (in 4 surveys), and that in rural students from 2005 to 2014 of 3 surveys were higher than that in towns (χ2=92.07, 35.16, 25.29, 29.98; 64.35, 4.26, 6.32, P<0.05). Conclusions The malnutrition of Han nationality primary and middle school students aged 7-18 years in Hainan Province show a trend of improvement year by year from 2005 to 2019, despite the overall high detection rate. Wasting is the most common type of malnutrition. The epidemic of malnutrition varies by age, sex and areas. Further targeted measures should be taken to strengthen intervention in the diet of primary and middle school students, to improve the nutritional status of children and adolescents.
