Objective:To evaluate the effect of image-guided with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) based on volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT)-flattening filter free (FFF) on the setup errors of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in patients with spinal metastatic tumors.Methods:The clinical data of 15 patients with spinal metastatic tumors who underwent SBRT in Jilin Cancer Hospital from August 2020 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The radiotherapy dose of bone metastasis was 32 Gy per 4 times and CBCT scanning was performed before and after radiotherapy. Every patient received radiotherapy 4 times; all 15 patients underwent SBRT 60 times in total and 120 CBCT volume images were finally obtained and analyzed. The systematic error (Σ) and random error (σ) were calculated at different correction threshold levels. The translational setup error and rotational setup error at the left-right (X axis), head-foot (Y axis) and front-back (Z axis) directions before and after radiotherapy were compared, which were expressed as Σ ± σ.Results:The pre-SBRT and post-SBRT translational setup errors were (0.14±0.27) cm and (0.07±0.19) cm, respectively ( P<0.001) in the X direction, (-0.05±0.33) cm and (0.00±0.19) cm, respectively ( P = 0.001) in the Y direction, (-0.13±0.19) cm and (-0.02±0.14) cm, respectively ( P = 0.012) in the Z direction. The pre-SBRT and post-SBRT rotational setup errors were (-0.31±0.76)° and (-0.09±0.34)°, respectively ( P < 0.001) in the X direction, (-0.13±0.88)° and (-0.07±0.36) °, respectively ( P < 0.001) in the Y direction, (0.10±0.51)° and (0.16±0.38)°, respectively ( P < 0.001) in the Z direction. Conclusions:CBCT correction could reduce Σ and σof the translational setup and rotational setup, increase the accuracy of SBRT based on VMAT-FFF for patients with spinal metastatic tumors.

Objective:To compare the dosimetric differences between accelerated partial breast irradiation intensity modulated radiation therapy (APBI-IMRT) and whole breast irradiation with simultaneous integrated boost intensity modulated radiotherapy (WBI-SIB-IMRT) for early-stage breast cancer after breast-conserving surgery.Methods:A total of 35 patients with early-stage breast cancer in Jilin Province Cancer Hospital between July 2009 and December 2014 after breast-conserving surgery were enrolled. The targeted regions of APBI-IMRT and WBI-SIB-IMRT were created for each patient. The dosimetric difference comparison of the targeted region and normal tissues was evaluated by using dose volume histogram (DVH).Results:There was no significant difference in the dosimetric comparison of gross tumor volume (GTVtb) and planning gross tumor volume (PGTVtb) after correction of cumulative radiation effect (CRE) between WBI-SIB-IMRT group and APBI-IMRT group (both P > 0.05). The dose of clinical target volume (CTV) and planning target volume(PTV) in APBI-IMRT group was higher than that in WBI-SIB-IMRT group [CTV: (4 720±71) cGy vs. (3 889±79) cGy, t = 3.184, P = 0.027; PTV: (4 675±164) cGy vs. (3 807±199) cGy, t = 2.751, P = 0.032] after CRE correction. Compared with WBI-SIB-IMRT group, the dose of ipsilateral lung tissue and left heart tissue in APBI-IMRT group was decreased after CRE correction [(558.5±8.9) cGy vs. (1 304.9±34.4) cGy, t = -7.328, P = 0.001; (35.5±5.3) cGy vs. (843.0±41.5) cGy, t = -8.137, P = 0.001]. V 5/3.6 Gy, V 10/7.3 Gy, V 15/10.9 Gy, V 20/14.6 Gy, V 25/18.2 Gy and V 30/21.9 Gy of the ipsilateral lung and V 30/21.9Gy, V 40/29.2Gy of left heart in all breast cancer patients after two chemotherapy treatments had significant differences (all P = 0.001). Conclusion:Compared with WBI-SIB, APBI-IMRT can improve the dose distribution in target area and reduce the volume of high dose irradiation in organs at risk.

Objective:
The aim was to investigate the genotype distribution of two major epitopes of large surface protein (PreS1) of hepatitis B in Chinese patients and to explore the association between the genotypes of these two epitopes, and to determine whether PreS1 full-length genotype could be revealed according to the polypeptide sequence of key epitopes.
Methods:
HBV DNA was extracted from the serum of patients for PCR amplification. 278 samples amplified successfully were sequenced and compared with the known HBV sequences in Genbank to determine the two key epitopes of HBV PreS1 genotype (amino acid epitope 21-47 and 94-117, abbreviated as P21 and P94) and PreS1 full-length genotypes. The correlation among three genotyping approaches was analyzed by Cohen’s kappa coefficient to verify the consistency between the key-epitope genotyping and the full-length preS1 genotyping.
Results:
232 samples were successfully sequenced. The genotyping based on the kind of P21 epitope protein sequence, 201 cases for genotype C, 23 cases for genotype B and 8 cases for uncertain genotypes and genotyping based on the form of P94 epitope protein sequence, 199 cases for genotype C, 25 cases for genotype B and 8 cases for indeterminate genotypes. Lastly, the genotyping based on sequence of the full-length PreS1 sequence, 207 and 25 cases for genotype C and B. P21 or P94 epitope genotyping and PreS1 full length genotyping were highly consistent, respectively, 96.55% and 96.12%, and the two epitopes (P21and P94) genotyping have parallel consistency (93.10%).
Conclusion
In this study, an innovatively genotyping method based on the amino acid sequence of key epitopes was proposed. The genotypes of HBV in china were mainly B and C genotypes, and the genotypes of key conserved epitopes of HBV PreS1 were highly consistent with the full-length genotyping ( > 96%). Moreover, genotyping with one or two key epitopes can be used in place of the full-length genotyping.

To improve overall satisfaction of patients with the hospital and build a harmonious doctor-patient relationship, a survey on satisfaction of patients with ECG examination was conducted in a tertiary A hospital. The analysis was carried out from the aspects of inspection environment, inspection process, inspection experience and overall satisfaction. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the effect of various variables on satisfaction. This paper found that the overall satisfaction rate of patients with ECG examination was 85.18%, lower than that of outpatients. Patients with different characteristics had different satisfaction degree with ECG examination. Patient satisfaction was lower on Mondays and Wednesdays than that on other inspection days, and was lower between 10 a.m. and 14 p.m. The longer the waiting time, the lower satisfaction degree of patients with examination. Based on the results, hospitals should improve the construction of humanistic soft environment to improve the medical environment, scientifically plan the medical treatment process of ECG examination, and further strengthen doctor-patient communication. The ECG room should further promote its management level and strengthen its cultural construction.

BACKGROUND:
To compare the efficacy and safety of dose-adjusted etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin plus rituximab (DA-EPOCH-R) with standard rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) in Waldeyer's ring diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (WR-DLBCL) at a single institution.
METHODS:
This retrospective study included 115 newly diagnosed patients with WR-DLBCL, of whom 68 patients received R-CHOP, and 47 patients received DA-EPOCH-R as their first-line treatment. The baseline features of the two groups were well balanced using a 1:1 propensity score matching method, and a total of 84 cases were obtained, including respective 42 cases in the R-CHOP and DA-EPOCH-R groups, for further survival and prognosis analysis. The primary objectives included progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
RESULTS:
During a median follow-up of 45 months, there were nine (21.4%) deaths in the R-CHOP group and two (4.8%) in the DA-EPOCH-R group. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed statistically significant improvements in PFS and OS in patients with DA-EPOCH-R compared with those treated with R-CHOP (log-rank test, P = 0.025 and P = 0.035, respectively). The 2-year PFS and OS rates in the DA-EPOCH-R group were 90.1% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 81.4-99.8%) and 95.2% (95% CI: 89.0-100.0%), respectively, and 80.5% (95% CI: 69.3-93.6%) and 90.5% (95% CI: 52.8-99.8%) in the R-CHOP group. Patients without B symptoms and elevated lactate dehydrogenase levels had a higher PFS in the DA-EPOCH-R group, with P values of 0.038 (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.11; 95% CI: 0.01-0.88) and 0.042 (HR: 0.19; 95% CI: 0.04-0.94), respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in clinical responses and treatment-related toxicities between the two groups.
CONCLUSION
Compared with patients received R-CHOP, those treated by DA-EPOCH-R had superior PFS, OS, and controlled toxicity in patients with WR-DLBCL.
