Objective To observe the change of the serum trough concentration and its pharmacokinetics of vancomycin in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), and to analyze the factors influencing vancomycin concentration. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted. Steady-state trough concentrations of vancomycin from patients (18-80 years old) with SAP concomitantly with G+ infection admitted to Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from January 2010 to December 2016 were enrolled. According to the usage time of vancomycin, the patients with SAP were divided into early group (onset within 21 days), middle group (onset between 21-28 days) and late group (onset over 28 days). The gender, age, body weight, clinical diagnosis, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ ) score, renal function, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were recorded. Influencing factors of vancomycin was analyzed by multiple linear regression and stepwise regression. Results Fifty-eight patients were enrolled who contained 134 times trough concentrations of vancomycin. There were 41 patients enrolled and 61 times of trough concentrations in the early group, 24 patients enrolled and 33 times of trough concentrations in the middle group, and 28 patients enrolled and 40 times of trough concentrations in the late group. There was no significant difference in gender, age, body weight, serum creatinine, creatinine clearance (CCr), albumin, APACHE Ⅱ score among the three groups. There was significantly difference in the duration from the onset time to vancomycin administration between early, middle groups and late group (days:15.9±3.2, 23.3±2.2 vs. 35.0±6.7, both P < 0.05). The positive liquid balance in early group was lower than that of late group (mL: 1565.2±3132.1 vs. 3675.1±3411.5, P < 0.01), while it was increased in the middle group as compared with that of late group (mL: 5078.7±3892.4 vs. 3675.1±3411.5, P < 0.05). The average daily dose of vancomycin in the early, middle and late groups were (14.7±5.0), (15.0±2.8), (17.0±4.2) mg/kg, respectively, and there was no significant difference (P > 0.05). Compared with the standard concentration (15 mg/L) of vancomycin, the serum trough concentration of vancomycin was significantly reduced in SAP patients [(7.5±4.3) mg/L, P < 0.01]. Apparent volume of distribution (Vd) was (72.4±15.4) L, and clearance rate (CL) was (9.0±2.8) L/h. According to the Bayesian, the serum trough concentration of vancomycin was significantly reduced in early group and middle group compared with late group (mg/L: 5.0±2.1, 7.3±2.5 vs. 11.5±5.1, both P < 0.01), CL was significantly increased (L/h: 10.5±3.0, 8.1±1.9 vs. 7.4±1.9, both P < 0.05), and Vd was significantly increased in early group compared with late group (L: 73.7±15.5 vs. 71.0±12.6, P < 0.05). It was shown by multiple linear regression analysis that there was strong relationship between serum trough concentration and the serum creatinine, CCr, average daily dose and the starting time of vancomycin treatment (r value were 0.449, -0.318, 0.373, 0.763, respectively, all P < 0.05). Conclusions The serum trough concentration of vancomycin was significantly reduced in SAP patients. And the earlier usage of vancomycin, the lower of the trough concentration is. Therefore, higher dosage regimen was needed to ensure the clinical effect, and reduce the bacterial resistance.

Objective To evaluate the serum trough concentration and the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD)of vancomycin in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), and analyze the effect of vancomycin continuous infusion for optimizing the characteristics of its PK/PD.Methods The inhospital patients with SAP received vancomycin treatment and admitted to emergency intensive care unit (EICU) of Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from January 2011 to December 2016 were enrolled. Steady-state trough concentrations of vancomycin from patients were collected retrospectively. The SAP patients were divided into augmented renal clearance (ARC) and non-ARC groups, as well as systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and non-SIRS groups according to the patients with or without symptom above. Adjustments of increased dosage or 24-hour continuous infusion or increase vancomycin dose were made for patients if the steady-state trough concentrations fell below the target level. Steady state trough concentration for vancomycin intermittent infusion or steady state concentration for vancomycin continuous infusion was determined by the fluorescence polarization immunoassay method. PK parameters of vancomycin were calculated using the Bayesian estimator and the area under the serum drug concentration-time curve (AUCc-t), the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and AUCc-t/MIC was recorded and calculated.Results The steady state trough concentration or steady state concentration from 61 patients with SAP were collected with mean steady state trough concentration of vancomycin of (7.7±4.4) mg/L, which was significantly lower than standard concentration (15 mg/L,P < 0.001). Apparent volume of distribution (Vd) and clearance of vancomycin was (1.06±0.26) L/kg and (8.9±2.8) L/h. The serum steady state trough concentration of vancomycin in ARC group (n = 33) was significantly lower than that in non-ARC group (n = 28; mg/L: 6.7±3.5 vs. 8.2±4.1, P < 0.01), clearance was significantly increased (L/h: 9.8±2.9 vs. 7.7±2.2,P < 0.01). Compared with non-SIRS group (n = 31), the serum steady state trough concentration of vancomycin in SIRS group (n= 30) was significantly lowered (mg/L: 6.1±3.2 vs. 13.0±4.2,P < 0.01), and clearance was significantly increased (L/h: 9.4±2.0 vs. 7.1±2.1,P < 0.05). Compared with the only increasing vancomycin dose group (n = 29), vancomycin continuous infusion for 24 hours (n = 21) could significantly reduce daily dosage (mg/kg: 13.6±3.9 vs. 19.1±3.5,P < 0.01), increase the serum trough concentration (mg/L: 18.1±7.0 vs. 12.6±5.3,P < 0.01), and improve the AUCc-t/MIC.Conclusions The serum trough concentration of vancomycin was significantly reduced in SAP patients with ARC. The more serious of the SIRS is, the lower the vancomycin trough concentration is. Vancomycin 24-hour continuous infusion could optimize the PK/PD parameters, decrease the daily dose, increase the clinical effect, and reduce the bacterial resistance.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy and toxicity of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) in radical radiotherapy for cervical cancer.Methods:Clinical data of 1002 patients with cervical cancer treated with radical radiotherapy at Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from September 2013 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were divided into the IMRT group and 3D-CRT group according to the technology of external beam radiation therapy (EBRT). After 1∶1 propensity score matching (PSM), clinical prognosis of patients receiving IMRT or 3D-CRT was compared. Continuous data were expressed as Mean ± SD or median . Categorical data were described by case number (percentage). Quantitative data were compared by t-test. Qualitative data were compared by chi-square test or Fisher's exact test. Survival rates in two groups were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. Results:The percentage of patients who received pelvic and para-aortic radiotherapy in the IMRT group was significantly higher than that in the 3D-CRT group (14.9% vs. 1.2%, P<0.001). The percentage of patients whose positive lymph nodes dose reached 55 Gy or more in the IMRT group was significantly higher than that in the 3D-CRT group (26.6% vs. 15.5%, P=0.002). In the IMRT group, the 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate (74.6% vs. 68.9%, P=0.084) and overall survival (OS) rate (79.4% vs. 74.9%, P=0.270) were slightly higher than those in the 3D-CRT group, but there were no significant differences between two groups. In the IMRT group, the local recurrence (3.0% vs. 6.9%, P=0.020) and distant lymph node metastasis rates (4.2% vs. 9.0%, P=0.013) were significantly lower compared with those in the 3D-CRT group. In terms of acute radiotherapy toxicities, grade 3-4 leukopenia (46.3% vs. 37.9%, P=0.028) and anemia (18.8% vs. 14.0%, P<0.001) occurred significantly more frequently in the IMRT group than in the 3D-CRT group. Conclusions:Both IMRT and 3D-CRT could achieve good therapeutic outcomes in radical radiotherapy of cervical cancer. IMRT can boost the radiation dose of metastatic lymph nodes and has significant advantages in reducing local recurrence and distant lymph node metastasis.

Background and objective Subsolid pulmonary nodules tend to exhibit considerably slower growth rates than solid lesions, nevertheless, higher malignancy probability. hTe diagnosis of indeterminate nodules largely depends on the growth evaluation during follow-up. hTe growth can manifested as an increase in size or the appearance and/or subsequent increase of solid components. hTe mass relfect the product of volume and density and can be more sensitive in growth evalu-ation. However, the repeatability needs a further validation. hTe purpose of this study is to assess the intra and inter-observer variability of mass measurement for subsolid nodules. Methods 80 subsolid nodules in 44 patients were retrospectively en-rolled. Both the volume and mass were measured by two radiologists using blind method independently. Intra-observer and inter-observer variability were analyzed and compared by Bland-Altman method intra-class correlation test and Wilcoxon test. Results Sotfware achieved satisifed segmentation for 92.5%nodules. Of them, 35%underwent manual modiifcation. hTe 95%limits of agreement for intra-observer variability were-11.5%-10.4%for mass and-8.4%-8.8%for volume. hTe 95%limits of agreement for inter-observer variability were-17.4%-19.3%for mass and-17.9%-19.4%for volume.hTe intra-class correlation foeffcients between volume and mass measument was 0.95 and 0.93 (both P<0.001) and no signiifcant differences (P=0.78, 0.09) was found for intra-and inter-observer variability. Manual modiifcation of the segmentation caused the worse mass mea-surement repeatability in spite of the reader satisfaction. Conclusion hTe repeatability of mass measurement has no signiifcant difference with that of volume measurement and may act as a reliable method in the follow-up of subsolid nodules.

Objective: To investigate the role of piperine on the transformation of endothelial cells into fibroblasts. Methods: Cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs, 4-6 passage) were used for the main experiments. The transformation models of endothelial cells into fibroblasts were induced by transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) stimulation. HUVECs were divided into 6 groups: control group, TGF-β group and 4 groups treated with various concentrations of piperine (1, 5, 10, 20 μmol/L). CKK-8 was used to detect cell proliferation. The CD31/α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) expression level was detected by fluorescent staining. The vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-cadherin)/vimentin expression was detected by immunofluorescence staining. RT-PCR was used detect the mRNA expressions of transformation markers. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of snail and twist. Results: TGF-β increased HUVECs proliferation (P<0.05), which could be significantly inhibited by 10 and 20 μmol/L of piperine, but not by 1 and 5 μmol/L of piperine. Immunofluorescence results demonstrated that TGF-β increased HUVECs transformation to fibroblasts as shown by downregulated expression of endothelial markers CD31, VE-cadherin, and upregulated expression of α-SMA and vimentin, again, these effects could be attenuated by 10 and 20 μmol/L piperine. The expression levels of collagen type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ were significantly higher in TGF-β group than in control group (P<0.05), significantly lower in TGF-β+10 μmol/L piperine group and TGF-β+20 μmol/L piperine group than in TGF-β group (P<0.05).In addition, RT-PCR results showed that TGF-β increased mRNA expression of transformation markers (snail1, snail2, twist1, twist2), while 10 and 20 μmol/L of piperine could significantly downregulated the mRNA expressions of these markers. The protein expression levels of snail and twist were significantly higher in TGF-β group than in control group (both P<0.05), which was significantly lower in TGF-β+20 μmol/L piperine group than in TGF-β group (both P<0.05). Conclusions Piperine can inhibit the transformation of endothelial cells into fibroblasts. This effect might be viewed as one of the potential mechanisms of reduced myocardial fibrosis post piperine treatment.

Objective To investigate the correlation between total burden of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) and cognitive impairment in patients with acute basal ganglia infarction. Methods Patients with acute basal ganglia infarction for the first time were enrolled, and the general data of the enrolled patients were collected. Patients were assessed by Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA). Based on MoCA assessment, patients were then divided into cognitive impairment (CI) group and non-cognitive impairment (NCI) group. CSVD total load scores were conducted afterwards in order to analyze the correlation between the total load of different degrees of cerebral small vessel disease and cognitive impairment. Results A total of 178 patients were enrolled in this study: 135 in the CI group and 43 in the NCI group. There were significant differences in age (t=4.11, P=0.04) but not in high-density lipoprotein (t=2.92, P=0.09), and glycosylated hemoglobin C (t=3.02, P=0.08) between the two groups. The infarct volume was larger in the CI group (CI group: 424.72±36.55, NCI group: 227.02±34.62, t=4.022, P=0.046). There were significant differences in a sing1e lentiform nucleus (χ2=19.08, P<0.01), caudal Nucleus(χ2=9.97, P<0.01), infarction at the site of internal capsule(χ2=3.85, P=0.05), the infarct site involved lentiform nucleus, internal capsule and caudate nucleus at(χ2=4.30, P=0.04), and numbers of patients with moderate-to-severe internal carotid artery stenosis (χ2=4.14, P=0.04) as well as numbers of patients with moderate-to-severe intracranial artery stenosis (χ2=4.19, P=0.04). Similarly, there were significant differences in CSVD total burden (t=3.62, P<0.01), deep white matter hyperintensity (t=9.02, P<0.01), and cerebral microbleeds (t=5.54, P=0.02) between CI group and NCI group. The comparisons on MoCA score, visuospatial and execution, attention, language, generalization and abstraction, memory and orientation but not naming were statistically significant between the two groups. The logistic regression equation showed that CSVD total burden (OR=0.316, 95%Cl: 0.185~0.541, P<0.001), age (OR=0.924, 95%Cl: 0.884~0.967, P=0.001) and infarct volume (OR=0.924, 95%Cl: 0.884~0.967, P=0.001), (95%Cl: 1.000~1.003, P=0.047) was significantly associated with cognitive impairment in patients with acute basal ganglia infarction. Conclusion High CSVD total load score, older age and larger infarct volume may be risk factors for cognitive impairment in patients with acute basal ganglia infarction.

To explore the level of hsa_circ_0001588 in plasma of patients with gastric cancer and to analyze the relationship between the plasma level of hsa_circ_0001588 and clinical characteristic,toll like receptors 4(TLR4)and T lymphocyte subsets,this study enrolled 124 gastric cancer patients who were treated in our hospital from March 2021 to May 2022 as study group.Simultaneously,another 130 patients diagnosed with superficial gastritis by gastroscopy were selected as benign group,and 130 healthy individuals were set as control group.The plasma hsa_circ_0001588 level was measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction,the plasma level of TLR4 was detected by double antibody sandwich ELISA,and plasma CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,and CD4+/CD8+levels were tested by Wmini5146 flow cytometry.Then the diagnostic efficacy of plasma hsa_circ_0001588,TLR4 and T lymphocytes for gastric cancer was evaluated,and the correlation between the level of hsa_circ_0001588 in plasma and the level of TLR4 and T lymphocytes in gastric cancer patients was verified.Data showed that the levels of hsa_circ_0001588,TLR4 and CD8+in plasma of study group were higher than those of benign group and control group,while the levels of CD3+,CD4+and CD4+/CD8+were lower than those of benign group and control group(P＜0.05).Furthermore,a decrease was observed in plasma hsa_circ_0001588 level in gastric cancer patients after surgery compared to baseline data.Among gastric cancer patients of different clinicopathological characteristics,patients with high clinical stage,high degree of infiltration,poor differentiation and distant metastasis had high plasma hsa_circ_0001588 level(P＜0.05).Diagnostic analysis denoted that the separate test of plasma hsa_circ_0001588,TLR4 and T-lymphocytes all had good diagnostic efficacy for gastric cancer,while combined test showed the highest diagnostic efficacy.Comparison among gastric cancer patients revealed that high hsa_circ_0001588 expression group had lower expression of CD3+,CD4+and CD4+/CD8+,and higher expression of TLR4 and CD8+than those of low hsa_circ_0001588 expression group(P＜0.05),suggesting that plasma hsa_circ_0001588 level was negatively correlated with CD3+,CD4+and CD4+/CD8+expression,but positively correlated with TLR4 and CD8+.In conclusion,the level of hsa_circ_0001588 in plasma is elevated in patients with gastric cancer,and it has a negative correlation with CD3+,CD4+and CD4+/CD8+,but positive correlation with TLR4 and CD8+expression.

Objective:To explore the recurrence pattern and prognosis of cervical cancer after radical chemoradiotherapy.Methods:Clinical and follow-up data of 1 359 patients with stage Ⅰ-ⅣA (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics 2009 staging) who received radical radiotherapy in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from August 2011 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The survival and prognostic factors of 249 patients with recurrence / metastasis with detailed data were analyzed. The primary endpoint was post-recurrence / metastasis survival time. Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the survival rate, log-rank test was used for single factor analysis, and Cox model was used for multi-factor analysis.Results:The distant metastasis rate of 249 patients was 77.5%, and the local recurrence rate was 36.9%. According to the location of metastasis and recurrence, 56 cases with recurrence in the field of radiotherapy alone were assigned into group A, 157 cases with recurrence outside the radiation field alone were allocated into group B (56 cases with lymph node recurrence in group B1, 78 cases with blood metastasis in group B2, and 23 cases with lymph node and blood metastasis simultaneously in group B3), and 36 cases with combined recurrence and metastasis in and out of the field of radiotherapy were assigned into group C. The median survival time of patients in groups A, B1, B2, B3 and C was 13, 24, 13, 11 and 9 months, respectively (all P<0.001). According to the interval from initial diagnosis to recurrence / metastasis, 110 cases were classified in ≤1 year group, 74 cases in >1-2 years group, and 65 cases in >2 years group. The median survival time of patients in the three groups was 11, 14, and 22 months, respectively (all P<0.001). According to the management of recurrence / metastasis, 138 cases received palliative treatment, 15 cases received local treatment, 45 cases received systemic treatment, and 51 cases received combined treatment. The median survival time of patients among four groups was 9, 37, 20 and 32 months, respectively (all P<0.001). The results of multi-factor analysis showed that age, recurrence / metastatic site, retreatment methods, time interval between initial treatment and recurrence /metastasis were the independent prognostic factors affecting the survival (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Distant metastasis is the main failure pattern after radical radiotherapy. Patients with metastasis out of irradiated regions, especially those with only lymph node metastasis, have good prognosis. Active retreatment and time interval between initial diagnosis and recurrence / metastasis are important prognostic factors.
