Objective To investigate the effect of psychological intervention on level of hope and quality of life in the breast cancer patients.Methods Ninety five breast cancer patients were randomized into intervention group and control group for an eight-week observation.Herth hope index(HHI)and Quality of life core questionnaire for European tumor patients(QLQ-C30)were used to observe the effect of psychological intervention on level of hope and quality of life in the breast cancer patients.Results Hope scores in total and in three subcategories were higher in intervention group((40.43±4.25),(13.28±1.61),(13.62±1.70),(13.53±1.52))than that in control group((37.82±4.49),(12.29±1.89),(12.90±1.67),(12.63±1.51))with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Scores for general quality of life,body function and role function were higher in intervention group((82.27±15.11),(75.89±12.24),(72.34±22.86))than that in control group((65.82±14.16),(68.30±16.42),(53.06±27.36))with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Scores for fatigue,pain,insomnia and loss of appetite were lower in intervention group((39.48±14.62),(25.18±16.98),(29.79±24.31),(18.44±21.77))than that in control group((49.43±17.58),(36.74±19.54),(46.26±28.72),(40.82±22.84))with statistically significant differences(P＜0.01).Conclusion-Psychological intervention could improve the level of hope and quality of life in the breast cancer patients.

OBJECTIVE To study the distribution and drug resistance of meticillin-resistante coagulase negative Staphylococcus(MRCNS) in neonate septicemia for rational use of antibiotics in clinic. METHODS The MRCNS isolates were detected by BD120 and ATB.Susceptibility test to 12 antibiotics was performed through disk diffusion test. RESULTS Totally 262 strains coagulase negative Staphylococcus(CNS) was isolated from 344 S.aureus strains.Among 262 CNS,there were 130 S.epidermidis strains(49.6%),94 S.hemolyticus strains(35.9%),21 S.hominis(8.01%),and 17 other kinds of Staphyloccus strains(6.49%).The isolated ratio of MRCNS was 65.0%(170/262).Susceptibility test showed that the MRCNS were multiple resistant. CONCLUSIONS CNS occupys the first place in infection of neonatal blood.The isolated ratio of MRCNS is high and shows multi-drug resistance.Vancomycin and some other glycopeptide antibiotics are the first choice for MRCNS infections.

Objective: To investigate the effect and safety of intensive hyperthermia combined with low-dose cisplatin plus radiotherapy in the treatment of patients with locally advanced NSCLC. Methods: From January 2012 to December 2015, 104 patients with locally advanced NSCLC were chosen in the Second People's Hospital of Weifang and randomly divided into two groups according to the digital table, with 52 patients in each group.The control group was given low-dose cisplatin plus radiotherapy, and the observation group was given intensive hyperthermia on the basis of control group.The ORR, DCR, median OS, median PFS, KPS score, the levels of coagulation function index and tumor markers before and after treatment and incidence of side effects in the two groups were compared. Results: The DCR of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group(86.54% vs.69.23%, χ²=8.24, P<0.05). The median OS and median PFS of the observation group were significantly longer than those of the control group(11.9 months vs.8.3 months; 7.5 months vs.4.7 months, t=2.56, 3.01, P<0.05). The KPS scores after treatment of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group and before treatment[(75.49±8.94)points vs.(68.65±7.06)points; (75.49±8.94)points vs.(62.23±6.34)points, t=2.78, 5.11, all P<0.05]. The levels of coagulation function index and tumor markers after treatment of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group and before treatment(t=3.14, 2.67, 3.59, 7.31; 4.89, 4.02, 4.70, 9.21; 2.44, 2.60, 3.20; 3.15, 3.78, 4.06; all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of side effects between the two groups(P>0.05). Conclusion Intensive hyperthermia combined with low-dose cisplatin plus radiotherapy in the treatment of patients with locally advanced NSCLC can efficiently control disease progress, increase survival benefits, higher quality of life, improve coagulation function, reduce the levels of tumor markers and possess satisfactory safety.

【Objective】 To establish the reference interval of Thromboelastography(TEG)of healthy adult in Hainan, compare with the interval provided by the manufacturers, and analyze the influencing factors. 【Methods】 A total of 308 healthy adult volunteers were included according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The TEG was analyzed based on adequate quality control, and the reference interval of each parameter was calculated with 95% CI. 【Results】 The reference interval of these volunteers were R 4.27~9.20 min, K 1.60~3.83 min, Angle 44.22°~67.78°, MA 47.82~64.17 mm, CI -5.63~1.12 and G 4.58~9.03. 14.94% (46/308) of these volunteers had at least one index exceeded the reference interval provided by manufacturers. A total of 74 healthy volunteers were diagnosed with coagulation disorder, with the specificity at 79.22%. Significant differences of R, K, Angle, MA, CI, G were observed between males and females (P<0.05). Hypercoagulability was not associated with the age. 【Conclusion】 This study established a reference interval of TEG of healthy adults in Hainan, which provided reference for related clinical and basic science study.

【Objective】 To investigate the correlation between preoperative thromboelastography (TEG) parameters and routine coagulation tests of malignant tumor patients. 【Methods】 A total of 79 patients with malignant tumors, receiving preoperative TEG tests and routine coagulation tests between January 2019 and June 2020, were included. The correlation and regression between coagulation indexes and TEG parameters were analyzed. 【Results】 In patients with malignant tumors, the coagulation time(K) was negatively correlated with Plt and fibrinogen (FIB), while Angle, Ma, and G were respectively positively correlated with Plt and FIB. 【Conclusion】 There is a correlation between preoperative TEG parameters and routine coagulation tests in patients with malignant tumors. There is complementarity but not reciprocal substitutability between these two tests.

ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (Arf6), a small G-protein of the Ras superfamily, plays pivotal roles in multiple cellular events, including exocytosis, endocytosis, actin remodeling, plasma membrane reorganization and vesicular transport. Arf6 regulates the progression of cancer through the activation of cell motility and invasion. Aberrant Arf6 activation is a potential therapeutic target. This review aims to understand the comprehensive function of Arf6 for future cancer therapy. The Arf6 GEFs, protein structure, and roles in cancer have been summarized. Comprehending the mechanism underlying Arf6-mediated cancer cell growth and survival is essential. The structural features of Arf6 and its efforts are discussed and may be contributed to the discovery of future novel protein-protein interaction inhibitors. In addition, Arf6 inhibitors and mechanism of action are listed in the table. This review further emphasizes the crucial roles in drug resistance and attempts to offer an outlook of Arf6 in cancer therapy.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of berberine (BBR) against ionizing radiation injury in rats and its mechanism of action. Methods Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into seven groups: normal control group, 1-Gy radiation group, 1-Gy radiation plus low-dose BBR (50 mg/kg) group, 1-Gy radiation plus high-dose BBR (150 mg/kg) group, 3-Gy radiation group, 3-Gy radiation plus low-dose BBR (50 mg/kg) group, and 3-Gy radiation plus high-dose BBR (150 mg/kg) group. All the groups except the normal control group were exposed to external irradiation with a medical electron linear accelerator, followed by BBR administration by gavage for consecutive ten days. The serum levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), reduced glutathione (GSH), and malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured by using the micromethod. The pathological changes of the bone marrow and small intestine were observed with HE staining. Results Compared with the normal control group, the radiation groups showed significantly increased MDA levels (P < 0.05), significantly decreased SOD and GSH levels (P < 0.05), and more severe pathological damage of the bone marrow and small intestine. Compared with the radiation groups, the BBR groups showed significantly decreased MDA levels (P < 0.05), significantly increased SOD and GSH levels (P < 0.05), and reduced pathological damage to the bone marrow and small intestine, which were more marked in the high-dose BBR group. Conclusion BBR has a certain protective effect against radiation injury in rats, which may be through increasing the activity of antioxidant substances, enhancing free radical clearance, and thereby alleviating free radicals-caused oxidative damage.

Reprogramming of energy metabolism is one of the basic characteristics of cancer and has been proved to be an important cancer treatment strategy. Isocitrate dehydrogenases (IDHs) are a class of key proteins in energy metabolism, including IDH1, IDH2, and IDH3, which are involved in the oxidative decarboxylation of isocitrate to yield α-ketoglutarate (α-KG). Mutants of IDH1 or IDH2 can produce d-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2HG) with α-KG as the substrate, and then mediate the occurrence and development of cancer. At present, no IDH3 mutation has been reported. The results of pan-cancer research showed that IDH1 has a higher mutation frequency and involves more cancer types than IDH2, implying IDH1 as a promising anti-cancer target. Therefore, in this review, we summarized the regulatory mechanisms of IDH1 on cancer from four aspects: metabolic reprogramming, epigenetics, immune microenvironment, and phenotypic changes, which will provide guidance for the understanding of IDH1 and exploring leading-edge targeted treatment strategies. In addition, we also reviewed available IDH1 inhibitors so far. The detailed clinical trial results and diverse structures of preclinical candidates illustrated here will provide a deep insight into the research for the treatment of IDH1-related cancers.

Copy number variations (CNVs), which can affect the role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), are important genetic changes seen in some malignant tumors. We analyzed lncRNAs with CNV to explore the relationship between lncRNAs and prognosis in bladder cancer (BLCA). Messenger RNA (mRNA) expression levels, DNA methylation, and DNA copy number data of 408 BLCA patients were subjected to integrative bioinformatics analysis. Cluster analysis was performed to obtain different subtypes and differently expressed lncRNAs and coding genes. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was performed to identify the co-expression gene and lncRNA modules. CNV-associated lncRNA data and their influence on cancer prognosis were assessed with Kaplan-Meier survival curve. Multi-omics integration analysis revealed five prognostic lncRNAs with CNV, namely
