Objective To evaluate the clinical curative effect and prognosis of hand-assisted laparoscopic (HALS) and laparoscopic assisted surgery for Siewert Ⅱ,Ⅲ gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (AEG).Methods A retrospective analysis of 105 patients with advanced Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG between Jan 2012 and Jan 2013 was made on the operation time,amount of blood loss,number of lymph nodes dissected,postoperative complications,postoperative hospital stay and postoperative 5-year survival rate.Results HALS resulted in significantly shorter operation time and the average postoperative hospital stay [(203±54) min比(283±72) min,t=-4.902,P=0;(10±4) d 比(13±3)d,t=-0.939,P =0.002] for advanced Siewert type Ⅱ and Ⅲ AEG.There was no conversion to open surgery in HALS group,while there was 3 cases in laparoscopy assisted surgery group (x2 =4.118,P =0.042).5 year overall survival (OS) in HALS group was 46.7％ (95％ CI39.98-53.88),and it was 60.9％ for stage Ⅱ patients 37.8％ for stage Ⅲ.5 years OS rate was not significantly different between the two groups.Conclusion HALS compared with laparoscopy assisted surgery in the treatment of advanced Siewert type Ⅱ and type Ⅲ AEG has shorter operation time,higher safety operation,shorter postoperative recovery time.The number of patients with postoperative complications and the 5-year survival rate after surgery are not significantly different between the two groups.

Objective To investigate the influence of the Janus kinase-signal transducer and transcription activator(JAK-STAT)signaling pathway mediated by Kruppel-like factor 14(KLF14)on the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods From January 2018 to September 2019,NSCLC tissues from 80 patients and malignancy-free paracancerous tissues from 25 patients were collected.Medical follow-up ended in April 2023.Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of KLF14 in tissues,and the patients were divided into a high-expression group and a low-expression group according to the median level of KLF14 expression.Over-expres-sion or knock-down of KLF14 and JAK1 was achieved by transfection of KLF14 and JAK1 overexpression plasmid in A549 cells and transfection of KLF14 and JAK1 specific short hairpin RNA(shKLF14 and shJAK1)in HCC827 cells.The proliferation activity of cells was analyzed by cell clone formation test.Transwell analyzed the migration and invasion of cells.Results As compared with the normal paracancerous tissues,the expression of KLF14 in NSCLC tissue decreased(P<0.001).The low expression of KLF14 was significantly correlated with tumor diameter of>3 cm,lymph node metastasis and clinical stage Ⅲ(P<0.05).There was a significant difference in the overall survival rate between the high KLF14 expression group and the low KLF14 expression group,and the patients with low KLF14 expression had poor prognosis(P = 0.039).After overexpression of KLF14,the proliferation ability of A549 cells and the number of migration and invasion of these cells decreased significantly(P<0.05);while after knock-down of KLF14,the proliferation ability of HCC827 cells and the number of migration,and invasion of these cells increased significantly(P<0.05).As compared with Vector + KLF14 group,the number of colonies,migration and invasion of A549 cells in JAK1 + KLF14 group increased significantly(P<0.05).As compared with shNC + shKLF14 group,the number of colonies,migration and invasion of HCC827 cells in shJAK1 + shKLF14 group decreased significantly(P<0.05).Conclusions Low expression of KLF14 is associated with poor overall survival in NSCLC patients.Up-regulation of KLF14 significantly inhibits the proliferation and metastasis of lung cancer cells in vitro,and its mechanism may be related to inhibition of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway.

Objective: To analyze the status and trends of physical fitness test data among college freshmen with different body mass index (BMI) groups from 2014 to 2024, providing the scientific evidence for monitoring and intervening in college students physical health. Methods: A census was conducted on all 67 949 freshmen at Civil Aviation University of China from 2014 to 2024. Physical tests included vital capacity, sit and reach, sit ups, 50 m sprint, standing long jump, pull ups, and 800 m/1 000 m run. Freshmen were divided into underweight, normal weight, overweight and obese groups according to WHO BMI standards. The Kruskal-Wallis H test was used to compare differences in physical fitness indicators across gender and BMI groups, while the Mann-Kendall trend test was employed to detect upward or downward trends in physical indicators over time. Results: From 2014 to 2024, statistically significant differences were observed in vital capacity, 50 m sprint, standing long jump, and sit and reach among different BMI groups for both genders (boy: Z =2 396.40, 4 160.33, 4 662.23, 531.85; girl: Z =593.37, 308.86, 499.37, 128.70). Significant differences were also found in 1 000 m run and pull ups for boys, and 800 m run and sit ups for girls across BMI groups (boy: Z =6 574.80, 6 880.48; girl: Z =528.56, 146.18) ( P <0.01). Overall physical test scores showed a declining trend during 2014-2024, particularly pronounced in overweight and obese groups. Male vital capacity in 2014 exceeded national survey data( d =320 mL), with the gap widening to 734 mL by 2019, while the female vital capacity difference increased from 271 mL in 2014 to 576 mL in 2019. Male 1 000 m run times were 23.0 s and 17.5 s faster than national data in 2014 and 2019 respectively, while female 800 m run times were 22.3 s and 21.5 s faster than corresponding national data. Conclusions Physical health status among freshmen at this university varies across BMI groups and changes over time. Although overall test scores remain higher than national levels, the declining trend in physical fitness performance requires attention.
