Objective: To investigate the clinicopathologic features, molecular characteristics and prognosis of spread through air space (STAS) in patients with adenocarcinoma of the lung. Methods: Two hundred and eighty-eight lung adenocarcinoma patients with complete clinicopathologic and follow-up data were included. The patients were divided into STAS positive (178 cases) and negative (110 cases) groups.EGFR and KRAS gene mutations were detected by amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS), and ALK and ROS1 gene fusion were detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization method. The relationship between STAS and clinicopathologic, molecular features, and patient outcome was analyzed. Results: STAS was present in 61.8%(178/288) of lung adenocarcinomas. The positive rate of STAS in tumors >3 cm was significantly higher than that in tumors ≤3 cm (P=0.009), and was significantly higher in tumors with pleural invasion (P<0.01), venous invasion (P<0.01), lymphatic invasion (P<0.01), perineural invasion (P=0.029) and tumors with necrosis (P<0.01). STAS was also correlated with tumor recurrence (P<0.01) and advanced pathologic TNM stage (P=0.002). There was no significant correlation with patients′ gender, age and smoking history. Histologically, STAS was present in 58.0%(91/157), 67.6%(50/74), 2/6, 64.3%(27/42) and 8/9 of acinar, papillary, lepidic, solid and micropapillary adenocarcinomas, respectively. In addition, the positive rates of STAS in tumor with micropapillary (>5%) and without micropapillary pattern were 80.9%(55/68) and 55.9%(123/220), respectively (P<0.01). STAS was significantly higher in EGFR negative group (P=0.034), ALK gene rearrangement group (P=0.003) and ROS1 gene rearrangement group (P=0.012), but there was no significant correlation with KRAS mutation. Univariate survival analysis showed that patients with STAS had a shorter progression-free survival (PFS, P<0.01) and overall survival (P=0.013). Multivariate analysis confirmed that STAS was an independent predictor of PFS in lung adenocarcinoma patients (HR: 2.749, 95%CI: 1.550-4.876, P=0.001). Conclusions The presence of STAS in lung adenocarcinoma suggests high risk of recurrence and invasion and is thus an important prognostic factor. In addition, STAS is associated with EGFR mutation, ALK and ROS1 gene rearrangement.

Objective:To analyze the mediating effect of professional identity between teacher's support and student's learning engagement in nursing students.Methods:A total of 409 nursing students were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Their professional identity, teacher's support, learning engagement were evaluated by Professional Identification Scale (PIS), Nursing Students' Perceptions of Instructor Caring (NSPIC), and Utrecht Work Engagement Scale-Student (UWES-S). A mediating model was proposed and the impacts of professional identity on teacher's support and learning engagement were observed.Results:The average score of NSPIC was (4.60±0.67) points, that of PIS was (3.58±0.63) points, and that of UWES-S was (4.79±0.97) points. The scores of NSPIC and PIS were a highly positive correlation ( r=0.504, P<0.001). The scores of NSPIC was positively correlated with the scores of UWES-S ( r=0.362, P<0.001). The scores of PIS was positively correlated with the scores of UWES-S ( r=0.315, P<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that learning engagement of nursing students was associated with the total score of PIS and supportive learning atmosphere, which accounted for 16.6% of the total variability. Professional identity had a mediating effect between teacher's support and learning engagement, with statistic significance among all coefficients of each path ( P<0.05), and all the fitting indexes were good. Teachers support had direct effect (0.31) on learning engagement and indirect effect (0.11) on learning engagement through professional identity. Conclusion:Teacher's support can directly predict student's learning engagement and professional identity plays an mediating role between them.

OBJECTIVE： To study the relationships of polymorphism of MTRR gene rs1801394 locus and SLCO1B1 gene rs11045879 locus with drug concentration of methotrexate （MTX） and high-dose MTX （HD-MTX）-induced ADR in acute lymphoblastic leukemia （ALL） children. METHODS： From Oct. 2015 to Sept. 2018， 70 ALL hospitalized children of Han nationality in Sichuan area who received HD-MTX treatment and were in consolidation chemotherapy were selected retrospectively from Sichuan People’s Hospital. The blood concentration of MTX at 48 and 72 hours after administration was measured by EMIT. The genetic typing of MTRR gene rs1801394 locus and SLCO1B1 gene rs11045879 locus were detected with real-time PCR. The relationships of the polymorphism of MTRR gene and SLCO1B1 gene with MTX blood concentration [dose-corrected concentration （c48 h/D，48 h）， the proportion of children with different concentration of MTX （≤0.1， ＞0.1 μmol/L）] and ADR （such as myelosuppression， liver function damage， gastrointestinal response， mucosal damage， rash， etc.） were analyzed. Binary Logistic regression analysis for the correlation of ADR with different influencing factors （gene polymor- phism， blood concentration of MTX， immunophenotyping， body mass index， etc.） was carried out by Wald method. RESULTS： Totally 31， 32， 7 children with MTRR gene AA， AG and GG genotype， while 23， 37， 10 children with SLCO1B1 gene TT， TC and CC genotype were detected. The distribution of each genotype in 70 children conformed to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium （P＞0.05）. There was no significant difference in c48 h/D（48 h） of children and the proportion of children with different concentration of MTX （72 h） among difterent genotypes of MTRR and SLCO1B1 gene （P＞0.05）. There was statistical significance in the incidence of liver function injury in children with different genotypes of MTRR gene （P＜0.05）， and the AA genotype was significantly higher than the AG+GG genotype （P＜0.05）. There was no correlation of MTRR gene polymorphism with the incidence of other ADR， neither SLCO1B1 gene polymorphism with the incidence of ADR （P＞0.05）. The results of Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that liver function damage in ALL children was related to the gene polymorphism of MTRR； gastrointestinal reaction was related to whether the plasma concentration was more than 0.1 μmol/L at 72 h； mucosal damage was related to the immune type and BMI of children； the occurrence of skin allergy was correlated with body weight of children（P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS： Gene polymorphism of MTRR rs1801394 locus may associated with the occurrence of HD-HTX-induced liver function injury in ALL children， but its polymorphism and gene polymorphism of SLCO1B1 rs11045879 locus are not related to MTX blood concentration in ALL children.
