Journal of Chinese Physician 2021;23(4):520-524
Objective:To study the expression and clinical significance of serum neutrophil elatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and tumor necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) in patients with lupus nephritis (LN).Methods:97 LN patients who received treatment in Hanzhong 3201 Hospital from January 2016 to December 2019 were selected as study objects. Among them, 38 cases were in the active group and 59 cases were in the inactive group, and 51 cases for physical examination were selected as the control group. The levels of serum NGAL, MCP-1, TWEAK and LN renal function was examined and compared in each group. The diagnostic value of serum NGAL, MCP-1 and TWEAK expression on LN disease activity was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:The levels of serum NGAL, MCP-1 , TWEAK, serum creatine (Scr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), 24 h urinary protein and dsDNA in the active and inactive groups were higher than those in the control group, and the above indexes in the active group were higher than those in the inactive group ( P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum NGAL, MCP-1 and TWEAK levels in LN patients were positively correlated with systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI) score, Scr, BUN, 24 h urine protein and dsDNA levels ( P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under curve (AUC) of combined serum NGAL, MCP-1 and TWEAK in predicting disease activity of LN patients was 0.865, and the specificity, sensitivity, AUC and Youden index were higher than single index. Conclusions:The expression of NGAL, MCP-1 and TWEAK in LN patients during the active period is increased and closely related to the activity of disease. It is of high application value for predicting LN activity, and can be used as biomarkers for clinical prediction of LN activity.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of lentinan injection combined with recombinant human endostatin in treatment of gastric cancer patients with abdominal cavity metastasis.Methods:A total of 80 gastric cancer patients with abdominal cavity metastasis were treated in the People's Hospital of Haian City in Jiangsu Province from January 2017 to December 2019 were selected. They were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group according to the number table method, 40 cases in each group. The control group was given FOLFOX (oxalipatin + calcium leucovorin + fluorouracil) chemotherapy combined with recombinant human endostatin, and the observation group was in combination of lentinan injection on the basis of the control group. The short-term efficacy, tumor markers before and after treatment, immune function, angiogenesis related factors levels and adverse reactions of the two groups were analyzed.Results:After treatment, the short-term effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group [67.5% (27/40) vs. 47.5% (19/40), χ2 = 4.256, P < 0.05]. The level of tumor markers like tumor supplied group of factors (TSGF), carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA), and carbohydrate antigen 72-4 (CA72-4) of both groups after treatment was decreased compared with that before treatment; after treatment, the level of TSGF, CEA and CA72-4 in the observation group was lower than that in the control group [TSGF: (48.99±3.14) U/ml vs. (55.17±3.68) U/ml, t = -8.080, P < 0.01; CEA: (0.40±0.09) ng/ml vs. (0.47±0.10) ng/ml, t = -3.291, P = 0.002; CA72-4: (3.51±1.14) U/ml vs. (8.42±2.57) U/ml, t = -11.045, P < 0.01]. The proportion of CD3 +, CD4 +, and the ratio of CD4 +/CD8 + of both groups after treatment was decreased compared with that before treatment. The proportion of CD3 +, CD4 +, and the ratio of CD4 +/CD8 + in the observation group was higher than that in the control group after treatment [CD3 +: (38.53±5.12)% vs. (31.82±4.75)%, t = 6.076, P < 0.01; CD4 +: (25.36±4.39)% vs. (19.12±3.91)%, t = 6.713, P < 0.01; CD4 +/CD8 +: 1.05±0.24 vs. 0.83±0.19, t = 4.546, P < 0.01]. The level of angiogenesis-related factors like p53, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and transforming growth factor β 1 (TGF-β 1) of the two groups after treatment was decreased compared with that before treatment. The level of p53, VEGF, and TGF-β 1 in the observation group was lower than that in the control group after treatment [p53: (132.86±31.24) ng/L vs. (163.24±33.27) ng/L, t = -4.210, P < 0.01; VEGF: (425.23±36.79) ng/L vs. (673.57±63.28) ng/L, t = -21.458, P < 0.01; TGF-β 1: (35.87±4.03) ng/ml vs. (38.26±4.32) ng/ml, t = -2.559, P = 0.012]. The incidence of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳadverse reactions in the observation group was lower than that in the control group [47.5% (19/40) vs. 62.5% (25/40), χ2 = 6.142, P < 0.05].

Objective:
To investigate the knowledge, attitude and practice of hepatitis B prevention and control among junior high school students in Linping District, Hangzhou City, so as to provide insights into management of hepatitis B among adolescents.
Methods:
Two classes were sampled using a cluster sampling method from grades 2 in 12 public junior high schools in Linping District, and all students in these two classes were enrolled. Students' knowledge, attitude and practice of hepatitis B prevention and control were collected using questionnaire surveys, and factors affecting knowledge, attitude and practice of hepatitis B prevention and control were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 1 102 questionnaires were allocated and 1 094 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 99.27%. The respondents included 540 males (49.36%) and 554 females (50.64%), and 542 rural students (49.54%) and 552 urban students (50.46%). The awareness of hepatitis B prevention and control knowledge was 43.60%, and a low awareness rate was seen for the item “use of condom may prevent hepatitis B” (21.12%). The percentage of correct attitudes towards hepatitis B prevention and control was 57.77%, and a low percentage was found for the item “individuals living with hepatitis B will tell others” (38.67%). The percentage of positive practices towards hepatitis B prevention and control was 80.07%, and a low percentage was seen for the item “hepatitis B vaccines have been inoculated in recent five years” (16.54%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified gender (females, OR=1.483, 95%CI: 1.159-1.898), household registration (urban, OR=1.300, 95%CI: 1.011-1.670), and parental highest educational level (high school or technical secondary school, OR=0.703, 95%CI: 0.532-0.929) as factors affecting the awareness of hepatitis B prevention and control knowledge among junior high students, and parental highest educational level (high school or technical secondary school, OR=0.705, 95%CI: 0.533-0.934) and serving as class cadres (OR=1.449, 95%CI: 1.128-1.860) were factors affecting the attitudes hepatitis B prevention and control, while household registration (urban, OR=1.566, 95%CI: 1.144-2.143) and route of acquiring hepatitis B control knowledge (internet or magazine, OR=0.473, 95%CI: 0.288-0.776) were factors affecting the formation of practices towards hepatitis B prevention and control.
Conclusions
The overall awareness of and percentage of attitudes towards hepatitis B prevention and control, and the percentage of hepatitis B vaccination are low among junior high school students in Linping District. Targeted health education pertaining to hepatitis B prevention and control is required to be reinforced and promotion of hepatitis B vaccination is recommended.
9.Aromatase inhibitors in adjuvant endocrine treatment of breast cancer: ending the debate of sequence or upfront?——interpretation of BIG 1-98 clinical trial
Cancer Research and Clinic 2010;22(3):152-154
The third generation of aromatase inhibitors (AI) play an important role in the adjuvant treatment of hormonal positive postmenopausal breast cancer. Compared with tamoxifen, either upfront or sequential using of Al can both significantly improve the outcome of breast cancer patients. However, there is a continuous debate of sequence or upfront usage of Al in clinical applications. With the publication result of BIG 1-98 clinical trial and interpretation of the data, we can further recognize and optimize the usage of Al in breast cancer treatment.
10.Recent advance in treatment and prognosis of gastrointestinal stromal tumors
International Journal of Surgery 2008;35(11):774-777
Gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST) ,a kind of rare tumor,takes 1%~3% of all tumors in digestive tract,but are the most common in mesenehymal neoplasm.At present,the primal treatment of GIST is surgical operation,standard and rationality of surgery is the significant fatter that affects its curative effect.While imatinib is the main therapeutic tool for GIST that can' t benn resected or recurrence after operation.There is no definite circumscription between optimum and malignancy,there are many factors that influence the prognosis of GIST.We commonly apply Fletcher grading to evaluate the risk of GIST.
