Objective To investigate the effect of chemotherapy drugs on the expression of carci-noembryonic antigen (CEA) in the gastric tissue with precancerous lesions in ectopie cancer. Methods There were 45 cases of cancer patients (precancerous lesions group), the pathological biopsy showed that there were atypical hyperplasia or intestinal metaplasia by gastroscope before chemotherapy. Gastruscope was done before chemotherapy and after six cycles of chemotherapy. Gastric tissue was taken respectively in the same site. The expression of CEA was measured in the gastric tissue. Normal gastric tissue taken from 10 cases of cancer patients was served as control. Compared respectively the expression of CEA in the gastric tissue in control group and precancerous lesions group, in precancerous lesions group between before and after treatment. Results CEA expression in the gastric tissue was (27.76±9.67), (3.32±0.60)μg/L in precancerous lesions group and control group respectively, there was significant difference between two groups(P<0.05). CEA expression in the gastric tissue was (27.76±9.67), (26.60±10.80)μg/L before and after treatment in precancerous lesions group respectively, P<0.05. CEA expression in the gastric tissue before treatment was (23.11±4.11), (17.10±1.66)μg/L, after treatment was (21.11±5.66), (15.10±3.31)μg/L in the mild to moderate atypical hyperplasia, mild to moderate intestinal metaplasia respectively, there was significant difference between before and after treatment in the mild to moderate precancerous lesions. There was no significant difference between before and after treatment in the severe precancerous lesions. Conclusions Chemotherapy drugs can significantly reduce the expression of CEA in the gastric tis-sue in the mild to moderate precancerous lesions. The results suggests that mild to moderate precancerous lesions can be reversed.

The purpose of risk assessment is to evaluate the permissible exposure level under specific risk factors.To extrapolate the human acceptable daily intake (ADI) and/or reference dose (RfD), the traditional method uses the no-observed-adverse-effect level ( NOAEL ) to quantify toxicity after being divided by uncertainty factor.There are many limitations with NOAEL method in safety evaluation,for it relies too much on experimental design.Benchmark dose ( BMD) approach is a more reliable method with many advantages.BMD approach and its analysis software, the advantages of BMD over NOAEL, the application and methodological perfection in risk assessment of long-team exposure toxicity are presented in this review.

Group C Streptococcus (GCS) and Group G Streptococcus (GGS) distinctly differ from other Streptococcus in biochemical reactions, hemolytic properties, host species, and clinical characteristics.GCS and GGS are common colonizers of the skin, throat and female genitourinary tract of human body.The classification of GCS and GGS is complex and has been continuously corrected and revised over the past few decades.The outbreak of GCS and GGS infections mostly likely arises from environmental factors.GCS and GGS have similar pathogenicity, bacterial resistance characteristics, and clinical characteristics to group A Streptococcus.They can lead to various invasive infections, and Penicillin is still the first choice for their treatment currently.GCS and GGS infections are more severe than other Streptococcus infections.In this article, the classification and clinical characteristics of GCS and GGS were reviewed.

Objective To study the effect of baseline clinical characteristics of elderly female patients on their long-term ischemic cardiovascular events.Methods Of the 614elderly patients admitted to our center from April 2008to July 2010,144elderly female patients were divided into female cardiovascular events group(n=43)and female control group(n=101),470elderly male patients were divided into male cardiovascular events group(n=127)and male control group(n= 343).Their baseline clinical characteristics were compared.The patients were followed up for 4.5-6.7(5.6±0.9)years,during which the relationship between first ever acute ischemic cardiovascular events and their clinical factors were analyzed.Results The incidence of grade 2hypertension,grade 3hypertension and hypercholesterolemia,the ratios of antiplatelet drug therapy,CCB therapy and hypoglycemic drug therapy were significantly higher while the history of smoking was significantly shorter,the incidence of chronic renal insufficiency and the ratios of statins therapy,nitrates therapy and ACEI/ARB therapy were significantly lower in female patients than in male patients.The incidence of chronic renal insufficiency was significantly higher in female cardiovascular events group than in female control group(9.3％vs 1.0％,P=0.03).The age was significantly older,the incidence of CHD,ischemic cerebral stroke,chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and the ratio of nitrates therapy were significantly higher in male cardiovascular events group than in male control group.Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that the endpoint events were related with CHD,grade 2hypertension,grade 3hypertension,hypercholesterolemia,chronic renal insufficiency in female patients(HR=2.56,95％CI:1.19-5.54,P=0.017;HR=3.29,95％ CI:1.14-9.52,P=0.028;HR=2.77,95％CI:1.08-7.12,P=0.034;HR=2.61,95％CI:1.27-5.36,P=0.009;HR=22.70,95％CI:5.22-98.78,P=0.000)and were related with age,CHD and ischemic cerebral stroke in male patients(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion The effect of baseline clinical characteristics of elderly patients on their long-term ischemic cardiovascular events is different in males and females.The incidence of long-term cardiovascular events is closely related with the risk factors for cardiovascular disease in elderly females.

Objective:To investigate the effect of homocysteine (Hcy) on cerebral perfusion and cognitive function in patients with arteriosclerotic cerebral small vessel disease (aCSVD).Methods:A total of 117 patients with aCSVD who visited the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from June 2020 to September 2022 were enrolled and divided into the aCSVD cognitive impairment group (aCSVD-CI, n=57) and aCSVD non-cognitive impairment group (aCSVD-NCI, n=60) according to the Montreal Cognitive Assessment score. Serum Hcy measurement, cognitive function assessment, and three-dimensional pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling perfusion imaging scan were performed in all patients, and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to explore risk factors for cognitive impairment in patients with aCSVD. The cerebral blood flow and perfusion differential brain regions of the whole brain, grey matter, and white matter were compared between the two groups. Partial correlation analyses were performed between the serum Hcy, overall cognitive function scores and cerebral blood flow in grey matter, as well as between the cerebral blood flow in the perfusion differential brain area and cognitive function scores. The mediating effect model was used to analyze the role of grey matter blood flow in the relationship between serum Hcy and overall cognition. Results:The serum Hcy level in the CSVD-CI group was higher than that in the CSVD-NCI group [16.38(14.02, 18.58) μmol/L vs 14.40 (11.93, 15.73) μmol/L, Z=-3.81, P<0.001]. In terms of cerebral perfusion, compared with the aCSVD-NCI group, the aCSVD-CI group had significantly lower cerebral blood flow in grey matter ( Z=-3.22, P=0.001), left middle frontal gyrus ( t=-4.91, P<0.05), right middle frontal gyrus ( t=-5.14, P<0.05), and right orbital medial frontal lobe ( t=-4.38, P<0.05). In contrast, the left hippocampus ( t=4.58, P<0.05) had increased cerebral blood flow. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that serum Hcy level was independent risk factor for cognitive impairment in aCSVD after controlling for multiple risk factors. Partial correlation analysis showed that left middle frontal gyrus blood flow ( r=-0.39, P=0.006), right middle frontal gyrus blood flow ( r=-0.44, P=0.002), and right orbital medial frontal lobe cerebral blood flow ( r=-0.43, P=0.002) were negatively correlated with the Stroop Color Word Test-C results. Left hippocampal cerebral blood flow was negatively correlated with Auditory Word Learning Test-long-delayed recall ( r=-0.43, P=0.002). Further mediation analysis showed that the effect of Hcy on cognitive function was partly mediated by grey matter cerebral blood flow (indirect effect=-0.11, P<0.001). Conclusion:Hcy is an independent risk factor for cognitive impairment in aCSVD, and part of the effect of elevated Hcy on cognitive impairment in aCSVD may be mediated by decreased gray matter cerebral perfusion.

Objective:To compare the clinical value of stent assisted intestinal bypass and temporary loop ileostomy in laparoscopic low anterior resection of rectal cancer.Method:In this retrospective analysis, 57 patients undergoing laparoscopic low anterior resection for rectal cancer in the First Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University from Jan 2020 to Jan 2022 were divided into intestinal bypass group (36 cases) and loop ileostomy group (21 cases).Result:There were no significant differences in postoperative GI function recovery and postoperative complication rate between the two groups (all P>0.05). The levels of albumin, prealbumin and hemoglobin in the intestinal bypass group were better than those in the ileostomy group when evaluated on 3rd months after operation [(40.5±2.3) g/L vs. (38.1±2.6)g/L、(26.4±2.7)mg/dl vs. (24.5±2.0)mg/dl、(137.6±5.9) g/L vs. (134.0±7.0) g/L, t=3.605、2.743、2.085, all P<0.05]. Hospital expenses of the intestinal bypass group was lower [(571 000±7 500) yuan vs. (69 300±9 100) yuan, t=-5.477, P<0.05]. Conclusion:Compared with traditional ileostomy, the stent assisted intestinal bypass reduces trauma with lower expenses and improves patients' status after laparoscopic low anterior resection for rectal cancer.

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor （GDNF） and androgen receptor （AR） in testicular peritubular cells （TPCs） of cryptorchidism mouse models and explore the theoretical significance of cryptorchidism-induced spermatogenesis dysfunction. MethodsA total of 30 five-week-old male ICR rats were divided randomly by using random number table method into 6 groups. Cryptorchidism was surgically induced in 3 randomly selected groups and the other 3 groups underwent sham surgery as the control groups. On days 4， 7 and 14 after surgery， we harvested the mice testes of the 3 groups and their corresponding control groups， then measured the testicular volumes， analyzed the testicular histopathology and detected the mRNA and protein expression levels of AR and GDNF in TPCs by immunofluorescence， real-time PCR and Western blot. ResultsIn normal control groups， on days 4， 7 and 14 after surgery， the testicular volumes were （125.58±19.22） mm³，（123.45±20.12） mm³， （140.09±13.62） mm³ ， respectively. Clear layers of spermatogenic cells were well arranged and abundant sperm cells were found. Peritubular cells were morphologically homogeneous， with slim-spindle appearance and normal cell thickness. The mRNA expression levels of AR were 1.00±0.05， 1.06±0.07 and 1.19±0.13； GDNF mRNA 1.00±0.04， 1.09±0.05， and 1.10±0.07. The protein expression levels of AR were 1.01±0.01， 0.79±0.02 and 1.01±0.04； GDNF protein （18.68±0.43） pg/mL， （14.39±0.36） pg/mL and （16.88±0.37） pg/mL. In cryptorchidism groups， on days 4， 7 and 14 after surgery， the testicular volumes were （115.64±3.91） mm³， （69.51±14.97） mm³ and （44.86±5.56） mm³， respectively. Spermatogenic cells were disorganized， seminiferous tubules were disrupted， peritubular cells shrank， bent and fractured. The mRNA expression levels of AR were 0.76±0.06， 0.53±0.04， and 0.29±0.02； GDNF mRNA 0.72±0.05， 0.42±0.02 and 0.30±0.03. The protein expression levels of AR were 0.54±0.02， 0.98±0.04 and 0.31±0.01； GDNF protein （8.50±0.34） pg/mL， （17.44±0.32） pg/mL and （6.83±0.34） pg/mL. Statistically significant differences （P < 0.05） were found in 7-day and 14-day testicular volumes between control and cryptorchidism groups but not in the 4-day testicular volume （P > 0.05）. Testicular volumes， AR and GDNF mRNA and protein expression in control groups had no statistically significant difference （P > 0.05）， while those in cryptorchidism groups showed a trend of gradual decline in the amount and the differences between groups were statistically significant （P < 0.05）. ConclusionsIn surgery-induced cryptorchidism mice， after the induction， the expression of AR and GDNF in TPCs showed a gradual decrease over time. AR and GDNF play a major role in mediating the TPCs damage in cryptorchidism. This study provides a theoretical basis for mechanism researches of cryptorchidism-induced spermatogenesis dysfunction.
