Chinese Journal of Radiation Oncology 2021;30(3):239-243
Objective::To preliminarily investigate the values of failure mode and postoperative radiotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with chest wall invasion.Methods:A total of 69 T 3 stage NSCLC patients who underwent thoracic surgery in our hospital from 2010 to 2018 and presented with postoperative pathological findings of chest wall invasion were recruited. The outcomes between the post-operative radiotherapy and non-radiotherapy groups were assessed by propsensity matching analysis. Kaplan- Meier survival analysis and Cox’s model prognostic factors analysis were performed. Results:The median survival time of 69 patients was 25 months and the median progression-free survival was 8 months. Thirty-six cases were diagnosed with primary stage M 0 including 28 cases (78%) of R 0 resection and 33 cases (48%) were diagnosed with stage M 1a and received non-R 0 resection because of pleural metastases. In total, 53 cases (77%) suffered from disease progression, and 26 cases (38%) experienced local recurrence including 58% of mediastinal lymph node recurrence and 36% of chest wall tumor bed recurrence. Distant metastases were observed in 50 cases (73%) including 43% of pleural metastases. Univariate analysis showed that age, pathological staging, range of primary lesion invasion, postoperative radiotherapy and postoperative targeted therapy were significantly associated with overall survival (all P<0.05). The overall survival in the postoperative radiotherapy group was better than that in the non-radiotherapy group. No statistical difference was observed in the progression-free survival, local recurrence-free survival and distant metastasis-free survival between two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:For NSCLC patients with chest wall invasion, distal metastasis failure is the main cause, while local failure mainly consists of mediastinal lymph node and chest wall recurrence. Postoperative radiotherapy may improve survival. Nevertheless, the combination and benefit degree of postoperative comprehensive treatment need to be further confirmed by prospective studies.

Objective:
To construct a prediction model of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in middle-aged and elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), so as to provide basis for early screening and prevention of T2DM complicated with NAFLD.
Methods:
Patients aged 45 years and above and diagnosed with T2DM in Karamay Hospital of People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region in 2021 were collected as the study subjects. The data of general demographic characteristics and biochemical test results were collected. The patients were randomly divided into training group (n=3 241) and validation group (n=1 389) according to the ratio of 7∶3. LASSO regression and multivariable logistic regression model were used to select predictive factors. The nomograph model for prediction of NAFLD risk in T2DM patients was established. The predictive value of the model was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC), adjusted curve and decision clinical analysis.
Results:
Totally 4 630 T2DM cases were included, including 1 279 cases (27.62%) complicated with NAFLD. LASSO regression and multivariable logistic regression analysis identified gender, age, diastolic blood pressure, body mass index, alanine transaminase, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein cholesterol and platelet count as risk prediction factors for NAFLD in T2DM patients. The area under the ROC curve was 0.823 (95%CI: 0.814-0.832) for the training group and 0.809 (95%CI: 0.799-0.818) for the validation group, and Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed a good fitting effect (P>0.05). Decision curve analysis showed higher net clinical benefit of using the predictive model to predict NAFLD risk when the risk threshold probability was 0.27 to 0.85.
Conclusion
The nomogram model established has a good predictive value for the risk of NAFLD in T2DM patients aged 45 years and above.

Objective Controversies exist as to the influences of the characteristics of lymph node metastasis ( LNM) on the prognosis of low-grade endometrial carcinoma ( LGEC) .The aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors of LNM and their im-pact on the prognosis of LGEC. Methods This study included 218 LGEC patients treated by retroperitoneal lymph node dissection. We analyzed the pathologic characteristics of LNM and its relationship with the survival rate of the patients. Results LNM was ob-served in 37 of the 218 patients (16.97%), including 20 cases of pelvic (54.05%), 6 cases of para-aortic (16.22%), and 11 ca-ses of both pelvic and para-aortic ( 29.73%) LNM.Independent risk factors of LNM included deep myometrial infiltration ( OR:5.21, 95%CI:2.77-9.81), cervical stromal involvement (OR:3.15, 95% CI:1.12-8.35), lymphovascular invasion (OR:1.15, 95%CI:1.02-1.30), and abnormally high serum CA125 (OR:3.46, 95%CI:1.56-7.67) (P<0.05).There were sig-nificant differences in the 3-year survival rate between the patients with LNM and those without LNM (83.8%vs 95.0%, P<0.05) as well as in the 3-year tumor-free survival rate (73.0% vs 90.1%, P<0.05). Conclusion Deep myometrial infiltration, cervical stromal involvement, lymphovascular invasion, and abnormally high serum CA125 are the risk factors of LNM in LGEC patients, and LNM affects the prognosis of the LGEC patients.
