Objective:To investigate the risk factors of type 1 gastric neuroendocrine tumor (g-NET) in patients with autoimmune gastritis(AIG).Methods:From September 1, 2016 to February 28, 2022, 123 patients with AIG visited the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively enrolled, including 37 cases with type 1 g-NET and 86 cases without type 1g-NET. The clinical data, serological indicators, and endoscopic manifestation of all the patients were analyzed, including the age at the time of AIG diagnosis (hereinafter referred to as the age at diagnosis), levels of gastrin 17 and pepsinogen Ⅰ (PGⅠ), presence or absence of gastric fundus and gastric body polyps, etc. The independent risk factors of type 1 g-NET in AIG patients were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was plotted to analyze the optimal cut-off value, sensitivity and specificity of the independent risk factors in predicting type 1 g-NET in AIG patients. Independent sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:Compared with those of the AIG patients without type 1 g-NET, the age at diagnosis of AIG patients with type 1 g-NET was younger ((57.49±11.16) years old vs. (48.49±10.96) years old), the level of gastrin 17 was higher (200.21 ng/L, 121.85 ng/L to 244.40 ng/L vs. 244.40 ng/L, 182.50 ng/L to 248.02 ng/L), and the proportion of patients with gastric fundus and gastric body polyps was higher(18.6%, 16/86 vs. 56.8%, 21/37), and the differences were statistically significant( t=-4.13, Z=-3.06, χ2=17.90; P<0.001, =0.002 and <0.001). The results of univariate logistic analysis showed that the age at diagnosis ( OR=0.931, 95% confidence interval (95% CI)0.895 to 0.967), gastrin 17( OR=1.012, 95% CI 1.005 to 1.019), PGⅠ( OR=0.974, 95% CI 0.950 to 0.998)and gastric fundus and gastric body polyps( OR=5.742, 95% CI 2.461 to 13.399)were the influencing factors of type 1 g-NET in AIG patients ( P<0.001, =0.001, =0.033 and <0.001). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the age at diagnosis( OR=0.921, 95% CI 0.881 to 0.964), gastrin 17( OR=1.011, 95% CI 1.001 to 1.020), gastric fundus and gastric body polyps( OR=7.696, 95% CI 2.710 to 21.857)were the independent risk factors of type 1 g-NET in AIG patients ( P<0.001, =0.024 and <0.001). The results of ROC analysis demonstrated that the optimal cut-off values for the age at diagnosis and gastrin 17 in predicting type 1 g-NET were 56.50 years old and 206.40 ng/L, respectively; with sensitivity of 83.8% and 70.3%, respectively, and specificity of 54.7% for both ( P<0.001 and=0.003). Conclusion:The age at diagnosis< 56.50 years old, gastrin 17>206.40 ng/L and the presence of gastric fundus and gastric body polyps are independent risk factors of type 1 g-NET in AIG patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinical manifestations, endoscopic characteristics, and prognostic factors of patients with colorectal extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma.Methods:The clinical data of 52 patients with colorectal extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2013 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Their clinical manifestations and endoscopic characteristics were summarized, and the prognostic factors were analyzed by Cox regression model.Results:Among the 52 patients with colorectal extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma, there were 35 males and 17 females, with a male-to-female ratio of 2.06∶1. Among the general symptoms, abdominal pain was the most common (39 cases), and B symptoms occurred in 47 patients, among which fever was the most common lymphoma B symptom (42 cases), and gastrointestinal perforation was the most common complication (18 cases). Forty-three patients underwent colonoscopy, and the main manifestations under endoscopy were the ulceration type (24 cases). The ulcers were irregular at the edges and often covered with moss at the bottom. The median survival time was 4.3 months. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that hemocytic syndrome ( HR=8.50,95% CI: 1.679-8.328, P=0.001), serum albumin ( HR=3.59,95% CI: 1.017-6.551, P=0.048), and with or without chemotherapy ( HR=0.31, 95% CI: 0.246-1.061, P=0.025) were independent factors influencing the overall survival of patients with colorectal extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma. Conclusions:Colorectal extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma is a rare disease with a very poor prognosis. When patients present with abdominal pain and lymphoma B symptoms, and when ulcers with irregular edges and moss covering the bottom are found under endoscopy, the disease should be considered, and endoscopic biopsy should be taken in time for pathological diagnosis. The prognosis of patients with hemophagocytic syndrome and hypoproteinemia is poor. This disease should be treated with chemotherapy and surgery, and on this basis, hemophagocytic syndrome and hypoproteinemia should be treated to improve the prognosis of patients.

In the study of cardiovascular diseases,Peroxiredoxin 6(PRDX6)is the only mammalian 1-Cys member of the Peroxiredoxin(PRDX)family and has attracted much attention.PRDX6 plays a unique role in oxidative stress due to its peroxidase activity and phospholipase A2 activity,and has been shown to participate in redox homeostasis and phos-pholipid metabolism.In recent years,the role of PRDX6 in the occurrence and development of cardiovascular diseases has received great attention.However,there is no unified understanding of the function of PRDX6 in the cardiovascular system at present.This article aims to briefly summarize the research progress of PRDX6 in cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis,pulmonary hypertension,myocardial infarction,heart failure,abdominal aortic aneurysm,and systemat-ically review the expression changes,mechanism of action,and possible therapeutic potential of PRDX6 in these cardiovas-cular diseases,hoping to provide new ideas and strategies for cardiovascular diseases intervention.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive malignant brain tumor in adults and is poorly controlled. Previous studies have shown that both macrophages and angiogenesis play significant roles in GBM progression, and co-targeting of CSF1R and VEGFR is likely to be an effective strategy for GBM treatment. Therefore, this study developed a novel and selective inhibitor of CSF1R and VEGFR, SYHA1813, possessing potent antitumor activity against GBM. SYHA1813 inhibited VEGFR and CSF1R kinase activities with high potency and selectivity and thus blocked the cell viability of HUVECs and macrophages and exhibited anti-angiogenetic effects both in vitro and in vivo. SYHA1813 also displayed potent in vivo antitumor activity against GBM in immune-competent and immune-deficient mouse models, including temozolomide (TMZ) insensitive tumors. Notably, SYHA1813 could penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and prolong the survival time of mice bearing intracranial GBM xenografts. Moreover, SYHA1813 treatment resulted in a synergistic antitumor efficacy in combination with the PD-1 antibody. As a clinical proof of concept, SYHA1813 achieved confirmed responses in patients with recurrent GBM in an ongoing first-in-human phase I trial. The data of this study support the rationale for an ongoing phase I clinical study (ChiCTR2100045380).
