Objective: To analyse the fractions and trends of cancer burden attributable to population ageing, adult population size, age-specific incidence and case fatality rate in China between 1990 and 2019. Methods: We extracted data from the database of Global Disease Burden Study, including the number of cancer cases, deaths and corresponding population of 29 cancer types for Chinese adults aged 25 years and older from 1990 to 2019. Using the cancer deaths in 1990 as a reference, we employed a decomposition method to express cancer deaths as the product of four factors among men and women from 1991 to 2019. The fractions attributable to cancer deaths among total cancer deaths in that year were calculated and its time trends were assessed. Results: In 2019, we estimated that there were 2 690 000 cancer deaths among adults aged 25 and older in China. Of which, cancer deaths attributable to population ageing, adult population size, age-specific cancer incidence and case fatality rate were 740 000 (27.5% of total cancer deaths in 2019), 1 091 000 (40.6%), 198 000 (7.3%) and -728 000 (-27.1%), respectively. In 2019, lung cancer, stomach cancer, esophageal cancer, liver cancer and colorectal cancer ranked the top five cancers among population ageing attributable to cancer deaths. For 29 cancer types, the fractions of population ageing attributable to cancer deaths among total deaths of that cancer were ranged from 9.3% to 40.5%. The ageing attributable to cancer deaths and its fractions were increased rapidly since 1997, while those estimates were negative before 1997. Conclusions: The population ageing process in China was one of the major contributors to the increase in cancer burden in recent years, which has caused more cancer deaths than that by age-specific cancer incidence. Accordingly, activities toward healthy ageing would be the key to cancer prevention and control.

Objective: To depict gastric cancer burden trends globally and analyze geographical and socioeconomic disparities among different countries and territories. Methods: We extracted the data from Global Burden of Disease 2019 Database. We conducted the Joinpoint regression and calculated the average annual percent change (AAPC) and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) for age-standardized gastric cancer incidence and mortality from 1990 to 2019. Linear regression was performed to measure the association of sociodemographic index (SDI) with each country's gastric cancer incidence and mortality AAPC. We applied the age-period-cohort analysis to assess the cohort effect on gastric cancer incidence and mortality. Results: The AAPCs for gastric cancer age-standardized incidence and mortality rates from 1990 to 2019 were -1.27% (95% CI: -1.43%, -1.11%) and -1.87% (95% CI: -2.01%, -1.72%), respectively. SDI levels were negatively associated with AAPCs, which means that countries with higher SDI had higher AAPC (P<0.001). The decrease of gastric cancer burden in countries with low or medium SDI levels was slower than that globally. The age-period-cohort analysis indicated that countries with higher SDI levels had more apparent decline in birth cohort effects from 1900 to 1999. Conclusions: Countries with different socioeconomic levels have various decreasing rates for gastric cancer incidence and deaths. Countries with higher SDI levels have higher declining rates for gastric cancer burden.

This paper investigated the effects of regular aerobic exercise on protein oxidative stress and apoptosis in aging rat striatum, and further analyzed its target proteins and mechanism based on differential carbonylation proteomics. Totally 24 specific pathogen-free (SPF) 23-month-old male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into aged sedentary control group (Con-SED, n = 12) and aged regular aerobic exercise runner group (Aero-EXE, n = 12). The medium intensity of regular aerobic exercise model: The intensity of maximum oxygen consumption (VO

Objective:To explore the effect of Duanteng Yimu decoction （DTYM） on the activation of the human umbilical vein endothelial cell （HUVEC） model and the effect on related activated proteins and vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） signaling pathway. Method:After DTYM （200， 400 g·mL^-1） treatment of HUVEC induced by VEGF and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， cell proliferation， migration， and tubulogenesis were detected by cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay， 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine （EdU） assay， transwell migration assay， phalloidin staining， and matrix gel card method. The mRNA expression of adhesion factors， including E-selectin， intercellular adhesion molecule-1 （ICAM-1）， and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 （VCAM-1） was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）. The expression of von Willebrand factor （VWF）， platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule-31 （CD31）， angiogenic factor cysteine-rich-61 （CYR61）， angiopoietin-1 （ANG-1）， VEGF， and VEGF receptor-2 （VEGFR2） was detected by Western blot. Immunofluorescence was used to determine CD31 expression. Result:Compared with the normal group， the model group showed potentiated proliferation， migration， and tubulogenesis of HUVEC （P<0.05， P<0.01）， elevated mRNA expression of E-selectin， ICAM-1， and VCAM-1 （P<0.01）， up-regulated protein expression of VWF， CD31， ANG-1， CYR61， VEGF-α， and phospho （p）-VEGFR2 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and increased CD31 immunofluorescence intensity （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the DTYM groups displayed blunted proliferation， migration， and tubulogenesis of HUVEC （P<0.05， P<0.01）， decreased mRNA expression of E-selectin， ICAM-1， and VCAM-1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， down-regulated protein expression of VWF， CD31， ANG-1， CYR61， VEGF-α， and p-VEGFR2 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and weakened CD31 immunofluorescence intensity （P<0.01）. Conclusion:DTYM inhibits HUVEC proliferation， migration， adhesion， and tubulogenesis， which is associated with the regulation of CD31， VWF， CYR61， and ANG-1 expression in HUVEC and the VEGF signaling pathway.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of Duanteng Yimu decoction （DTYM） in the inhibition of pannus formation in collagen-induced arthritis （CIA） mice. Method:Twenty-four SPF-grade DBA/1 male mice were randomly divided into the following four groups： a blank group （NC group）， a model group （CIA group）， a methotrexate group （MTX group）， and a DTYM group， with six mice in each group. The mice， except for those in the NC group， were modeled. From the second immunization， the medium， MTX （1 mg·kg^-1）， and DTYM （15.4 g·kg^-1） were administered at an equal volume by gavage for 35 days. Mice were observed for general condition and the arthritis index. The knee and ankle joints were scanned by microcomputed tomography （micro CT）. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） and safranin O/fast green staining were performed to observe pathological changes. Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect the expression of platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 （CD31）， vascular endothelial growth factor-α （VEGF-α）， vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 （VEGFR2）， and phosphorylated（p）-VEGFR2. Result:Compared with the NC group， the CIA group showed red and swollen ankle joints， increased arthritis index scores （P<0.05， P<0.01）， manifest injury in the knee and ankle joints， reduced cartilage thickness， elevated Micro CT bone destruction scores of knee and ankle joints （P<0.01）， and up-regulated absorbance values of synovial CD31， VEGF-α， VEGFR2， and p-VEGFR2 （P<0.01）. Compared with the CIA group， the DTYM group showed relieved ankle joint redness and swelling， reduced arthritis index scores of mice three weeks after administration （P<0.05， P<0.01）， intact joint surfaces of the knee and ankle joints， thickened cartilage， declining Micro CT bone destruction scores in both the knee and ankle joints （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and lowered absorbance values of CD31， VEGF-α， VEGFR2， and p-VEGFR2 in the synovium （P<0.01）. Conclusion:DTYM can inhibit the pannus formation in CIA mice presumedly by regulating the VEGF pathway.

OBJECTIVE: To understand and analyze the rules of endurance exercise on the cerebral cortex adaptive mechanism in aged rats. METHODS: In this study, 3-month-old (n=20), 13-month-old (n=24) and 23-month-old (n=24) specific-pathogen free (SPF) male Sprague-Dawley Rat (SD) rats were divided into young (Y-SED), middle-aged (M-SED) and old-aged (O-SED) sedentary control group, and the corresponding Y-EX, M-EX and O-EX in the endurance exercise runner group. The 10-weeks of regular moderate-intensity aerobic exercise intervention were carried out in the endurance exercise runner group. The exercise mode is treadmill exercise (slope 0), and the exercise intensity gradually increases from 60%～65% of the maximum oxygen consumption (V·O) to 70%～75%, and the exercise time is 10 weeks. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining was used to detect age-related morphological changes. The expressions of superoxide dismutase(SOD) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and the expressions of synapsin 1 (SYN1) and Ca/calmodulin- dependent protein kinases IIα (CaMK IIα) / AMP-activated protein kinase α1(AMPKα1) / mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway -related genes were detected. RESULTS: The cerebral cortex structure of the rats in each group showed age-related aging changes, the expression of SOD in the cortex showed a gradual decline, the expression of BDNF showed an age-increasing trend, and the expression levels of SYN1 and CaMK IIα were increased with age. The changes in AMPKα1 and SirT2 and IP3R, AKT1 and mTOR mRNA levels were increased slightly in middle-aged rats and decreased in aged rats. Compared with the rats in each sedentary control group, the nucleus of the cerebral cortex was tightly arranged and the number of nuclei observed under the microscope was increased significantly in each exercise group. Exercise promoted the expressions of SOD, BDNF and synaptophysin SYN1 in the cortex of rats, and the expression levels of SOD and BDNF in aged rats were up-regulated significantly (P＜ 0.01). The expression level of SYN1 in rats was up-regulated significantly (P＜0.05) in the young and aged rats. The expression of CaMK IIα in the cortex of middle-aged and aged rats was up-regulated (P＜0.01), while the expression level of CaMK IIα in young rats was down-regulated (P＜0.01). Exercise could up-regulate the expression level of AMPKα1 in the cortex of young rats (P＜ 0.05), but not in middle-aged and old-age rats. Exercise could up-regulate the expression of SirT2 in the cortex of rats in all age groups (P＜0.05). Exercise up-regulated the expression of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (IP3R)/ protein kinase B 1(AKT1) /mTOR in the cortex of rats, among which young IP3R was significantly up-regulated (P＜0.01) in the young group, mTOR was significantly up-regulated in young and middle-aged group (P＜0.01), and mTOR was also significantly up-regulated in the aged group (P＜0.05). CONCLUSION Endurance exercise up-regulates BDNF expression, regulates CaMKIIα signaling, activates AMPK signaling pathway and IP3R / AKT1 / mTOR signaling pathway, and improves synaptic plasticity in the cortex.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy of primary prophylaxis of voriconazole against invasive infection of pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) during remission-induction chemotherapy (RIC) of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

METHODSClinical data of 102 de novo AML patients who received primary anti-IPA prophylaxis during the first induction chemotherapy were analyzed retrospectively. All the cases were divided into voriconazole-treated group and posaconazole-treated group according to the prophylactic agent. The incidences of IPA and systemic antifungal treatment during induction chemotherapy were analyzed for both groups.

RESULTSAmong 102 enrolled cases, 42 cases received voriconazole and other 60 received posaconazole as primary prophylaxis. IPA occurred in 3 cases of voriconazole group (1 probable, 2 possible); IPA occurred in 4 cases of posaconazose group, and all were possible cases. The incidence of IPA during remission-induction chemotherapy in variconazole group equaled to posaconazose group (7.1% vs. 6.7%) (P=0.925). Beside IPA cases, 2 cases in voriconazole group and 4 cases in posaconazole group received intravenous anti aspergillosis drugs preemptive treatment, and no significant difference of prophylactic success rate was observed between two groups (88.1% vs. 86.7%) (P=0.831). Visual disturbance was the most common adverse event occurred in voriconazole group, but no significant differences of incidences of other adverse effects were observed when compared with posaconazole group.

CONCLUSIONAccording to similar prophylactic effect with posaconazole, voriconazole appears to be a good alternative for primary prophylaxis of IPA during remission-induction chemotherapy in AML patients.
