Objective The purpose of this study was to determine the value of K-ras mutation in DNA extracted from the plasma as clinical indicator of colorectal cancer. Methods Point mutation at codon 12 of K-ras gene was assayed by polymerase chain reaction of sequence-specific primers in DNA extracted from the plasma and tumors from 32 patients with colorectal cancer. The mutation was further confirmed by dideoxy-mediated chain-termination method of DNA sequencing. Results Fourteen patients (44%) had a codon 12 K-ras mutation within their primary tumors and identical mutations were found in the plasma DNA of 13 patients (93%). Mutant DNA was not detected in the plasma specimens of 18 patients whose tumors tested negative for K-ras alterations or in 5 healthy control subjects. Conclusion Preliminary results suggest the detection of K-ras mutations in circulating DNA extracted from the plasma specimens may have some clinical uti- lity in the detection of colorectal cancer.

Objective:
To investigate the disease burden of occupational pneumoconiosis from 2009 to 2021 in Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide insights into formulating occupational pneumoconiosis prevention and control measures.
Methods:
Data on occupational pneumoconiosis in Jinhua City from 2009 to 2021 were collected through Occupational Disease and Health Hazard Monitoring Information System including demographic characteristics, disability level, age, pneumoconiosis type and stage, and analyzed years live dwith disability (YLD), years of life lost (YLL) and disability adjusted life years (DALY) by different genders, pneumoconiosis stages, pneumoconiosis types, ages and disability levels.
Results:
A total of 244 occupational pneumoconiosis cases were diagnosed in Jinhua City from 2009 to 2021, of which 225 cases were male, accounting for 92.21%. The median age of onset was 44.50 (interquartile range, 23.00) years. There were 229 deaths, with a median age of 78.00 (interquartile range, 13.00) years. The DALY was 3 791.88 person-years, YLD was 2 428.21 person-years (64.04%) and YLL was 1 363.67 person-years (35.96%). The YLD was 3 647.8 person-years in men, which was higher than 144.08 person-years in women (P<0.05). The YLD of asbestosis cases was lower than that of silicosis, coal workers' pneumoconiosis and other pneumoconiosis (P<0.05). The YLL was not statistically significant in the stage and type of occupational pneumoconiosis (P>0.05). The YLD was higher among cases at ages of less than 40 years, and lower among cases at ages of 60 to 69 years and 70 years and over (P<0.05); the YLL was lower among cases at ages of 70 years and over (P<0.05). The cases with second/third level of disability had the highest YLD, followed by the cases with fourth/fifth level of disability, and the cases with sixth/seventh level of disability had the lowest YLD (P<0.05).
Conclusions
The disease burden of occupational pneumoconiosis in Jinhua City from 2009 to 2021 is mainly induced by disability, and the disease burden caused by silicosis is the highest. With the progress of pneumoconiosis stages and disability levels, the life loss continues to increase.
