ObjectiveTo explore the relationship among the aggressive behavior,hostile attribution bias and childhood trauma in schizophrenic patients.Methods 135 schizophrenic patients were tested with Modified Overt Aggression Scale (MOAS),the Chinese-version of the Ambiguous Intentions Hostility Questionnaire (AIHQ-C) and Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ).According to the score of the MOAS,the patients were divided into the aggressive group ( n =58 ) and the non-aggressive group ( n =77 ).The hostile attribution bias and the childhood trauma were compared between the two groups,and correlation and hierarchical regression analysis were used to investigate the relationships of the variables.ResultsCompared with the non-aggressive patients,the aggressive patients had significantly higher AIHQ-C total hostility bias score (6.27 ± 1.20 vs 5.90 ± 0.97,P ＜0.05 ),total blame bias score (8.04 ± 1.97 vs 6.91 ± 2.10,P ＜ 0.01 ) and total aggression bias score ( 6.17 ±1.02 vs 5.59 ± 1.04,P ＜ 0.01 ).Correlation analysis showed that the MOAS score,AIHQ scores and the total score of CTQ were significantly positively correlated with each other ( r =0.171 ～ 0.350,P ＜ 0.05 ～0.01 ).Regression analysis indicated the hostile attribution bias directly predicted the aggressive behavior( β =0.342,P ＜0.05) and completely mediated the relationship between the childhood trauma and the aggressive behavior.ConclusionThe aggressive behavior in schizophrenic patients is associated with the experience of childhood trauma and the attribution style.The childhood trauma indirectly influences the aggressive behavior by the mediating of the hostile attribution bias.

OBJECTIVETo explore the feasibility of short-term neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC), and to compare clinical efficacy of short-term neoadjuvant chemotherapy with different ways.

METHODSClinical data of 310 AGC patients treated with one course of NACT using EOF regimen(epirubicin, oxaliplatin and fluorouracil plus calcium folinate) in our hospital from January 2008 to December 2011 were retrospectively analyzes. Efficacy was compared between regional arterial infusion chemotherapy and intravenously chemotherapy.

RESULTSAll the 310 AGC patients completed one course of NACT and none was interrupted by adverse events. Postoperative pathological remission rate was 33.9% (105/310) and 5 patients (1.6%) had complete pathological remission. The pathologic response rate in the regional arterial infusion chemotherapy group was higher than that in the intravenously chemotherapy group(42.4% vs. 23.6%, P = 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that chemotherapy method(HR=1.827, 95% CI:1.006-3.316, P = 0.048) was associated with significantly higher pathologic response.

CONCLUSIONSPathological response rate is quite low following short-term NACT. Regional arterial infusion chemotherapy with short-term NACT can improve the pathological response rate of advanced gastric cancer.

Objective:To develop a color-moment based model for frozen-section diagnosis of thyroid lesions, and to evaluate the model′s value in the frozen-section diagnosis of thyroid cancer.Methods:In this study, 550 frozen thyroid pathological slides, including malignant and non-malignant cases, were collected from Taizhou Central Hospital (Taizhou University Hospital), China, between June 2018 and January 2020. The 550 digitalized frozen-section slides of thyroid were divided into training set (190 slides), validation set (48 slides), test set A (60 slides) and test set B (252 slides). The tumor regions on the slides of malignant cases in the training and validation sets were labeled by pathologists. The labeling information was then used to train the thyroid frozen-section diagnosis models based on the voting method and those based on the color moment. Finally, the performance of two pathological slide diagnosis models was evaluated using the test set A and test set B, respectively.Result:The classification accuracy of the thyroid frozen-section diagnosis model based on the voting method was 90.0% and 83.7%, using test sets A and B, respectively, while that based on color moments was 91.6% and 90.9%, respectively. For actual frozen-section diagnosis of thyroid cancer, the model developed in this study had higher accuracy and stability.Conclusion:This study proposes a color-moment based frozen-section diagnosis model, which is more accurate than other classification models for frozen-section diagnoses of thyroid cancer.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of comprehensive treatment for synchronous primary advanced gastric and esophageal cancer by propensity score matching(PSM).Methods A total of 2 551 patients with advanced gastric cancer admitted to Jiangsu Province Hospital of Chinese Medicine from January 2013 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.Among them,45 patients with synchronous primary esophageal cancer were distributed to the observation group,and 2 506 patients without esophageal cancer were distributed to the control group.Through the PSM method,the control group was matched with the observation group and the equilibrium samples of covariates between two groups were obtained.The overall survival(OS)between the two groups were compared.Results Both observation and control group contained 45 patients in this study.According to the treatment regimen,the patients in the observation group was divided into radical resection treatment subgroup(n=22)and chemoradiotherapy(CRT)subgroup(n=23).In the radical resection subgroup,4 patients underwent the simultaneous surgical resection of gastric and esophageal tumors through proximal gastrectomy with the Ivor Lewis operation.Eighteen patients underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)of their esophageal tumors and gastric cancer radical resection.Radical resection of gastric cancer combined with preoperative chemoradiotherapy of esophageal cancer was performed in the CRT subgroup.Survival analysis showed that OS in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group(P=0.042)and there was no significant difference in OS between the radical resection subgroup and the control group(P=0.799).The 1-,3-,and 5-year survival rates of the patients in the CRT subgroup were significantly lower than those of the control group(P=0.003).While the 1-,3-,and 5-year survival rates of the patients in the radical resection subgroup were not statistically significant,compared to those of the CRT subgroup(P=0.071).Conclusions Multidisciplinary and comprehensive treatment can significantly improve the prognosis of patients with synchronous primary advanced gastric and esophageal cancer.Radical resection of gastric cancer combined with ESD of esophageal cancer is an optional treatment for patients with gastric cancer complicated with early esophageal cancer.Radical resection of gastric cancer combined with CRT of esophageal cancer can improve the prognosis of patients with advanced gastric cancer complicated with unresectable esophageal cancer.
