Background and purpose: Increasing evidence has indicated that polymorphisms in the microRNA (miRNA, miR) binding site of target gene can alter the ability of miRNA and modulate the risk of cancer. We aimed to investigate the association between a miR-520a binding site single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs141178472 in the PIK3CA 3’UTR and the risk of colorectal cancer in a Chinese Han population. Methods:The polymorphism rs141178472 was analyzed in a case-control study, including 386 colorectal cancer patients and 394 age-and sex-matched controls. The relationship between the polymorphism and the risk of colorectal cancer was examined by statistical methods. Results:Individuals carrying the rs141178472 CC genotype or C allele had an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer (CC vs TT, OR=1.716, 95%CI:1.084-2.716, P=0.022;C vs T, OR=1.258, 95%CI:1.021-1.551, P=0.033). Furthermore, the expression of PIK3CA was detected in the peripheral blood mononucleated cell of colorectal cancer patients, suggesting that mRNA levels of PIK3CA might be associated with SNP rs141178472. Conclusion:These ifndings provide evidence that a miR-520a binding site polymorphism rs141178472 in the PIK3CA 3’UTR may play crucial roles in the etiology of colorectal cancer.

BACKGROUND: The real mechanism of systemic sclerosis is still not clear, it is found clinically that there are psychological stress factors of different forms before the attack.OBJECTIVE: To deeply investigate the psychosocial factors in patients with systemic sclerosis, and primarily analyze the role of psychological stress factors by comparing with national norms and controls as well as combining with clinical immunological test.DESIGN: A controlled observation.SETTING: The experiments were carried out in the Department of Geriatrics, the First Hospital Affiliated to Medical College, Zhejiang University and the Department of Surgery, Hangzhou Tongji Hospital.PARTICIPANTS: Between December 2002 and September 2005. 26 patients with systemic sclerosis (systemic sclerosis group), who received thoracic duct lymph drainage therapy, and 30 inpatients with chronic gastritis(control group) were selected from the same disease area of the Department of Internal Medicine, the First Hospital of Medical College, Zhejiang University.METHODS: All the patients filled the general information inventory, the contents included were age, gender, main symptoms, disease course, special examination, diagnosis and drug therapy. The psychosocial scale was used to evaluate the psychosocial factors. Life event scale (LES) was used to assess the life events stress, including profession, learning, marriage and love, family and child, economics, justice, interpersonal relationship and other common life events. The simplified coping style questionnaire (SCSQ)was applied to assess the coping styles, including 8 main components: confrontation, indifference, self-control, seeking help, self-blame, escape, planning and reassessment, and then the habitual coping styles were divided into negative ones and positive ones. The Eysenck personality questionnaire (EPQ) was used to evaluate the personality characters, it consisted of4 subscales: extraversion-introversion scale, neuroticism scale, psychoticism scale, lie and cover up scale. The fasting blood samples (3 mL) were drawn from the patients to detect serum levels of immunoglobulin G (IgG), immunoglobulin A (IgA) immunoglobulin M (IgM) and complement C3 with immunoturbidimetry, and the correlations between IgG and other factors were analyzed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The evaluative results of psychosocial scale and results of clinical immunological detection were mainly observed.RESULTS: All the 56 patients finished the scale survey and immunological detection, and all were involved in the analysis of results. The total number of life events, number of negative events and LEU value of negative events in LES were all significantly greater in the systemic sclerosis group than in the control group. For the coping style, the dimension of positive coping was less but that of negative coping was more in the systemic sclerosis group than in the control group. For EPQ, the scores of extraversion-introversion were lower but the scores of neuroticism in both males and females in the systemic sclerosis group were higher than in the control group and norms. For the immunological detection, the levels of lgG, lgA and lgM were all higher in the systemic sclerosis group than in the control group, but C3 level had insignificant difference between the two groups.IgG had negative correlations with the number of negative events, dimension of negative coping and the score of extraversion-introversion in EPQ.CONCLUSION: Patients with systemic sclerosis have obvious psychological stress, negative coping style, unstable mood and abnormal humoral immune function. Psychosocial stress has influence on immunology, it is indicated that psychological stress is closely correlated with the attack of systemic sclerosis.

Objective To observe the effects of individual prehabilitation on the functional outcome six weeks after total knee arthroplas-ty (TKA). Methods The patients undergoing TKA from March, 2013 to August, 2015 were randomly divided into prehabilitation group (n=30) and control group (n=29). The prehabilitation group received individual rehabilitation since enrolled in the study. The control group re-ceived no prehabilitation. All the patients received regular pre-surgical education, surgery and post-surgical rehabilitation. Both groups were evaluated with Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) of pain, active range of motion (AROM), Manual Muscle Test (MMT), fall index, TimedUp and Go(TUG), and Hospital for Special Surgery-Knee Scale (HSS-KS). Results The scores of NRS reduced six weeks after TKA (t>2.342, P<0.05) in both groups, and was lower in the prehabilitation group than in the control group before and six weeks after TKA (t>2.827, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in AROM of knee flexion when enrolling and before TKA in both groups (t<0.648, P>0.05), and it increased in the control group six weeks after TKA (t>3.555, P<0.01), and no increasement was found in the prehabilitation group (t<1.608, P>0.05);the AROM of knee extension increased before TKA in the control group (Z=-2.257, P=0.024), and no increasement was found in the prehabilitation group (Z=0, P=1.000), and it decreased six weeks after TKA in both groups (Z>2.247, P<0.05). The muscle strength of trunk extention and flexion enhanced before TKA in the prehabilitation group (t>2.387, P<0.05), and no change was found in the control group (t<0.940, P>0.05). The muscle strength of trunk extensor and the upside of rectus abdominis showed no statistical difference between two groups six weeks after TKA (t<1.656, P>0.05), the muscle strength of the downside of rectus abdominis and external oblique was more in the prehabilitation group than in the control group (t=2.585, P=0.013). There was no significant difference in the fall index be-fore TKA (t<0.350, P>0.05), and it was lower in the prehabilitation group than in the control group six weeks after TKA (t=-2.837, P=0.007). The time of TUG shortened before TKA in the prehabilitation group (t=3.554, P=0.002), and it prolonged in the control group (t=-4.507, P<0.001), there was no significant difference in it between two groups six weeks after TKA (t=-0.497, P=0.622). The score of HSS-KS increased before TKA (t=-2.621, P=0.015) in the prehabilitation group, and no increasement was found in the control group (t=2.073, P=0.053), and they were higher in the prehabilitation group than in the control group before and six weeks after TKA (t>2.092, P<0.05). Conclusion Individual prehabilitation could reduce pain, and improve the trunk muscles, the ability of walking and the function of the knee before and six weeks after TKA.
