Objective To study the mechanism of oxidative stress involved in the pathogenesis and relapse of acute monocytic leukemia (M5 ).Methods We detected reactive oxide species (ROS)levels,conducted plasma analysis obtained from 76 M5 patients at diagnosis and at relapse,and observed the ultrastructure of mitochondria of mononuclear cells in peripheral blood by transmission electron microscope.Results Compared with that in the control group,the average fluorescence intensity of intracellular ROS was significantly increased in M5 groups, especially in the relapse patients (P < 0.05 ).Low total antioxidative capacity (T-AOC)and antioxidant enzyme activity were characteristic of M5 at both diagnosis and relapse. However, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH ), malondialdehyde (MDA)and 8-hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanine (8-OHdG)increased significantly at both diagnosis and relapse (P < 0.05 ).Prominent ultrastructural abnormalities (mitochondrial swelling,outer membrane blebs,and aberrant cristae disorder)were present in patients with primary M5,and they were obviously abnormal in relapsing M5 patients.Conclusion Oxidative stress is the initiating factor of M5.Mitochondria are the main intracellular location for ROS generation.To maintain the dynamic balance between ROS and antioxidant defence may be the critical factor for preventing relapse.

5.Research progress on prognostic factors of cervical cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2022;49(5):307-313
At present, the clinical judgment of cervical cancer prognosis is mainly based on common pathological factors, such as tumor size, lymph node metastasis, and the depth of interstitial invasion. In recent years, with the advancement of technology, many biomarkers have been proved to be closely related to the diagnosis and prognosis of cervical cancer. Hematological parameters and other medical diseases also affect the survival of cervical cancer patients to some extent.

Chinese Journal of Radiological Medicine and Protection 2022;42(5):373-378
Objective:To compare the toxicity and prognosis of patients with stage Ⅲ cervical cancer treated using different regimens.Methods:A retrospective analysis was carried out for 194 patients with stage Ⅲ cervical cancer determined according to the revised 2018 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics staging system (16 cases of stage Ⅲ A, 23 cases of stage Ⅲ B, 136 cases of stage Ⅲ C1, and 19 cases of stage Ⅲ C2) admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2010 to December 2020. They were divided into a radical radiotherapy±chemotherapy group (81 cases) and a radical hysterectomy + radiotherapy±chemotherapy group (113 cases) according to different treatment method. The difference in toxicity between the two groups was determined using the χ2 test. The survival curves and progression-free survival curves were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the Log rank test was also performed. The differences in toxicity and prognosis were further analyzed in 136 patients with stage Ⅲ C1 cervical cancer result patients in the radical radiotherapy±chemotherapy group were more likely to have hemoglobin decline ( χ2=10.68, P=0.004), rectal mucositis ( χ2=14.41, P=0.001), and vaginal fistula ( χ2=7.16, P=0.012) of grades 3 and 4. Patients in the radical hysterectomy+ radiotherapy±chemotherapy group were more likely to have increased aspartate aminotransferase ( χ2=10.96, P=0.002) and alanine aminotransferase ( χ2=8.49, P=0.010). The differences were statistically significant. The 5-year progression-free survival rate of the radical radiotherapy±chemotherapy group was 58.3%, which was lower than that of the radical hysterectomy + radiotherapy±chemotherapy group (74.5%; χ2=5.33, P=0.021). Among the 136 patients with stage Ⅲ C1 cervical cancer, the ones in the radical radiotherapy±chemotherapy group (34 cases) were more likely to develop rectal mucositis ( χ2=13.25, P=0.003), while the ones in the radical hysterectomy + radiotherapy±chemotherapy group (102 cases) were more likely to have elevated aspartate aminotransferase ( χ2=6.18, P=0.046). The differences were statistically significant. The 5-year survival rates of the radical radiotherapy±chemotherapy group and the radical hysterectomy+ radiotherapy±chemotherapy group were 85.5% and 86.3%, respectively. The difference was not statistically significant ( P=0.893). The 5-year progression-free survival rates of the radical radiotherapy±chemotherapy group and the radical hysterectomy + radiotherapy±chemotherapy group were 65.6% and 77.1%, respectively. The difference was not statistically significant ( P=0.244). Conclusions:For patients with stage Ⅲ cervical cancer, the ones in the radical radiotherapy±chemotherapy group were more likely to progress and have a poorer prognosis compared with the ones in the radical hysterectomy+ radiotherapy±chemotherapy group. For patients with stage Ⅲ C1 cervical cancer, there was no significant difference in the prognosis of patients between the groups. The two treatment method lead to different toxicity, with no obvious advantages and disadvantages. Considering the risks and economic burdens caused by surgery, radical radiotherapy and chemotherapy is recommended for patients with stage Ⅲ C1 cervical cancer.

Objective:To investigate whether ferroptosis of nerve cells exists in a rat model of neuropathic pain (NP), and to explore the mechanism of O 3 treatment of NP. Methods:Sixty male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: neuropathic pain model group (NP group), sham operation group (Sham group) and ozone group (O 3 group). The partial sciatic nerve ligation was used in the NP and O 3 groups to construct a neuropathic pain model. The Sham group was subjected to sham surgery. In the O 3 group, 15 μl of O 3 (40 μg/ml) was injected locally at the injury site, and the NP and Sham were injected with the same amount of air, once per day. The mechanical contraction response threshold (MWT) and thermal contraction latency (TWL) of the rats were measured 1 day before the surgery (T0) and 1, 3, 7, 14 days after the surgery (T1 to T4). The spinal cord segments of rats were collected. The expression levels of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and long chain fatty acid coenzyme A synthetase 4 (ACSL4) at T1 to T4 was detected using Western Blot. The number of NeuN+ neuron cells in the spinal dorsal horn at T4 was detected using immunofluorescence technology. The specific changes of ferroptosis at T4 was observed by a transmission electron microscopy. Iron deposition in the spinal dorsal horn at T1 to T4 was measured using ferroptosis kits. Results:Compared with the Sham group, rats in the NP group and O 3 group showed decreasing of MWT decreased and shortening of TWL at T2 to T4, decreasing of NeuN+ neurons in spinal dorsal horn at T4, specific changes of ferroptosis in mitochondria at T4, and increasing of iron content in nerve tissue at T2 to T4. Compared with the Sham group, rats in NP group showed decreasing of GPX4 level and increasing of ACSL4 level. Compared with the NP group, rats in the O 3 group showed increasing of MWT and prolonging of TWL at T2 to T4, increasing of the GPX4 level and decreasing of ACSL4 level at T2 to T4, increasing of the number of NeuN+ neuron cells in the spinal dorsal horn, improving of the mitochondrial atrophy of nerve cells, and decreasing of the iron content in nerve tissue at T2 to T4. The above results are statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism of O 3 in treating neuropathic pain may be through inhibition of iron death.

Objective To investigate the changes and related factors of maternal thyroid autoantibodies during early pregnancy. Methods Urinary iodine concentration( UIC) , serum thyroid stimulating hormone( TSH) , free thyroxine ( FT4 ) , thyroid-peroxidase antibody ( TPOAb ) , thyroglobulin antibody ( TgAb ) concentrations were determined in 7 190 women during early pregnancy in an iodine-sufficient region of China. Results The prevalence of TPOAb positivity and TgAb positivity were 8. 7% and 12. 0% respectively. The prevalence of overt hypothyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism increased significantly in group of thyroid antibody positivity. The prevalence of TPOAb positivity and TgAb positivity presented a U-shaped curve, ranging from mild iodine deficiency to iodine excess, especially increased significantly in the group with UIC<100 μg/L. Conclusion Prevalence of thyroid antibodies positivity became higher during early pregnancy. The positive thyroid autoantibodies during pregnancy were significantly associated with maternal hypothyroidism. Both iodine excess and iodine deficiency are risk factors of positive thyroid antibodies.
