Objective To investigate the survival rates of main malignant tumors in Nanhui district. Methods Total 5 783 cases, registered as new cases with malignant neoplasm from 2002 to 2004 in Nanhui, were followed up. Data was studied by survival analysis with SPSS 13.0 of life table and Kaplan -Meier. Results The average annual crude incidence of malignant tumors was 267.57 / 100 000, the World standardized incidence rate of 209.98 / 100 000. Cancer Incidence in the top five ranks followed by lung, liver, stomach, colon and esophageal cancer, the incidence was 43.06 / 100 000, 28.65 / 100 000, 26.82 / 100 000, 18.63 / 100 000 and 9.57 / 100 000, respectively. The difference of the survival rates between the top five cancers was remarkable. Survival rates of cancers among males from the lowest to the highest were liver, lung, esophagus, stomach and intestines. Survival rates of cancers among females from the lowest to the highest were of liver, lung, esophagus, stomach, intestines, cervical and breast. The male or female main cancer's relative survival rate droped along with the age rising. Conclusion The survival status was better in the patients with intestine cancers and female patients with breast cancer, but worse in patients with liver, ung and esophageal cancer.

AIM: To investigate the possibility of 3T3 fibroblast growth on blood fibrin clot in culture medium with recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor (rhbFGF). METHOD: Growth of the cells on blood fibrin clot was studied by phase-contrast, scanning and transmission electron microscopy and by Giemsa stain and MTT assay. RESULTS: The optimal concentration of rhbFGF for proliferation and survival of the cells was 100 ng/mL. The cells also grew on blood fibrin clot scaffold in the low-serum medium containing 100 ng/mL rhbFGF, and a greater number of the cells survived after 48 hours incubation compared to that after 24 hours. The elongated filopodia appeared to bridge the gaps among the fibroblasts after 24 hours incubation. Further incubation to 72 hours, a greater number of platycytes were found to be joined together by lamellopodia. CONCLUSION: 3T3 fibroblasts could grow and survive on blood fibrin clot in the low-serum medium containing rhbFGF, and a combination of blood fibrin clot and rhbFGF may have over proportional effects on wound healing.

CONCLUSION: The blood fibrin clot, with its low immunogenicity, could be used as a bionic support for three-dimensional tissue culture, and also a physiological carrier to distribute the growth factor rhbFGF for the cells.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and prognostic factors of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in elderly patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 87 elderly patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer who received IMRT and 79 elderly patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer who received three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) from January 2005 to December 2015 in Changzhou Cancer Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University were retrospectively analyzed, and their efficacy and adverse reactions were observed. The log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards model were used for univariate and multivariate analyses to analyze the prognostic factors of patients receiving IMRT.Results:In the IMRT group, 27 cases (31.0%) achieved complete remission, and 60 cases (69.0%) achieved partial remission; in the 3DCRT group, 18 cases (22.8%) achieved complete remission, and 61 cases (77.2%) achieved partial remission. There was no statistical difference in the short-term efficacy (CR+PR) between the two groups ( χ2 = 1.43, P = 0.232). The 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival rates in the IMRT group were 77.0%, 46.0% and 23.0%, respectively, and the 3DCRT group were 70.1%, 40.5% and 10.1%, respectively. There was a statistical difference in the overall survival between the two groups ( χ2 = 4.89, P = 0.027). For elderly patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer who received IMRT, univariate analysis showed that gender, lesion location, T stage, gross tumor volume, and short-term efficacy were prognostic factors (all P < 0.05); multivariate analysis showed that lesion location, T stage, gross tumor volume, and short-term efficacy were independent prognostic factors (all P < 0.05). In the IMRT group, the incidence rate of ≥ grade 2 radiation pneumonitis was 10.3% (9/87), the incidence rate of ≥ grade 2 radiation esophagitis was 32.2% (28/87), the incidence rate of leukopenia was 18.4% (16/87), and the incidence rate of hemoglobin reduction was 7.0% (6/87), and there was no statistical difference in the incidence of acute adverse reactions between the IMRT group and the 3DCRT group (all P > 0.05). Conclusions:IMRT has more advantages than 3DCRT in the treatment of elderly patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer, especially those with upper cervical and thoracic lesion, T 1-3 stage, gross tumor volume ≤40 cm 3, and complete remission in a short term can benefit from it, and the adverse reactions are mild.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of stone extraction with a single peroral choledochoscopy system under direct visualization and conventional X-ray endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for non-difficult common bile duct stones.Methods:A total of 164 patients with common bile duct stones who underwent stone extraction by using the single peroral choledochoscopy system under direct visualization (the observation group, n=82) and conventional X-ray endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) (the control group, n=82) from January 2018 to April 2022 in Dongfang Hospital, Beijing University of Chinese Medicine were enrolled. The observation group was directly selected from the database, while the control group was randomly matched by age stratification with baseline data validated. The success rates of intubation, stone removal, postoperative complication incidence, and radiation exposure between the two groups were compared. Results:There was no significant difference between the baseline data of the observation group and the control group ( P>0.05). The number of patients with detected stones≥2 in the observation group and the control group were 59 (71.95%) and 37 (45.12%) respectively with significant difference ( χ 2=12.16, P=0.001). The success rates of bile duct intubation in the observation group and the control group were both 100.00% (82/82). The success rates of stone extraction were 98.78% (81/82) and 100.00% (82/82) respectively with no significant difference ( P>0.05). The one-time stone removal rates of the two groups were 93.90% (77/82) and 92.68% (76/82) respectively with no significant difference ( χ2=0.10, P=0.755). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications between the observation group and the control group ( P>0.05). The amount of intraoperative ray exposure volume in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group [10.20 (6.69, 18.94) mGy VS 15.41 (10.70, 22.77) mGy, U=2 462.00, P=0.003]. Conclusion:The efficacy and safety of stone extraction with single peroral choledochoscopy system under direct visualization are comparable to those of traditional X-ray ERCP for non-difficult common bile duct stones, but it can significantly reduce the intraoperative ray exposure volume during therapeutic ERCP stone extraction.

Objective: To analyze the status of dietary sodium intake of Chinese adult residents in fifteen provinces in 2015. Methods: Data were collected from 2015 China Nutrition Transition Cohort Study. This cohort study used a three consecutive 24-h retrospective method to record food intake and weighing method to record household condiment consumption. In this study, 14 847 residents aged 18 years and over with complete data from 15 provinces in 2015 were selected for the comparison of dietary sodium intake (median) with different characteristics. Results: Among the 14 847 residents, 47.1% were males, and the rural and northern residents accounted for 60.1% and 37.7%, respectively. Median sodium intake was 3 960.0 mg/d among residents in 2015. The sodium intake of males (4 272.1 mg/d) was higher than that of females (3 716.6 mg/d). Across age subgroups, sodium intake was highest among residents aged 45-59 years (4 257.0 mg/d; 18-44 years old, 3 867.1 mg/d; ≥60 years old, 3 799.0 mg/d). Sodium intake was higher in rural area (4 042.9 mg/d) than in urban area (3 866.8 mg/d), higher in north (4 229.2 mg/d) than in south (3 806.8 mg/d) (all P values <0.05). 11.8% of residents with dietary sodium intake were below 2 000 mg/d. The main sources of dietary sodium were condiments (79.4%), regular cooking foods (11.9%) and processed foods (8.7%). Among the condiments, the salt and soy sauce accounted for 63.6% and 10.4%, respectively. Conclusion In 2015, Chinese adult residents had higher dietary sodium intake with gender and regional differences. Condiments were the main source of dietary sodium.

Objective:To develop and validate the models based on mixed enhanced computed tomography (CT) radiomics and deep learning features, and evaluate the efficacy for differentiating pancreatic adenosquamous carcinoma (PASC) from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) before surgery.Methods:The clinical data of 201 patients with surgically resected and histopathologically confirmed PASC (PASC group) and 332 patients with surgically resected histopathologically confirmed PDAC (PDAC group) who underwent enhanced CT within 1 month before surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from January 2011 to December 2020 were retrospectively collected. The patients were chronologically divided into a training set (treated between January 2011 and January 2018, 156 patients with PASC and 241 patients with PDAC) and a validation set (treated between February 2018 and December 2020, 45 patients with PASC and 91 patients with PDAC) according to the international consensus on the predictive model. The nnU-Net model was used for pancreatic tumor automatic segmentation, the clinical and CT images were evaluated, and radiomics features and deep learning features during portal vein phase were extracted; then the features were dimensionally reduced and screened. Binary logistic analysis was performed to develop the clinical, radiomics and deep learning models in the training set. The models' performances were determined by area under the ROC curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and decision curve analysis (DCA).Results:Significant differences were observed in tumor size, ring-enhancement, upstream pancreatic parenchymal atrophy and cystic degeneration of tumor both in PASC and PDAC group in the training and validation set (all P value <0.05). The multivariable logistic regression analysis showed the tumor size, ring-enhancement, dilation of the common bile duct and upstream pancreatic parenchymal atrophy were associated with PASC significantly in the clinical model. The ring-enhancement, dilation of the common bile duct, upstream pancreatic parenchymal atrophy and radiomics score were associated with PASC significantly in the radiomics model. The ring-enhancement, upstream pancreatic parenchymal atrophy and deep learning score were associated with PASC significantly in the deep learning model. The diagnostic efficacy of the deep learning model was highest, and the AUC, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the deep learning model was 0.86 (95% CI 0.82-0.90), 75.00%, 84.23%, and 80.60% and those of clinical and radiomics models were 0.81 (95% CI 0.76-0.85), 62.18%, 85.89%, 76.57% and 0.84 (95% CI 0.80-0.88), 73.08%, 82.16%, 78.59% in the training set. In the validation set, the area AUC, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of deep learning model were 0.78 (95% CI 0.67-0.84), 68.89%, 78.02% and 75.00%, those of clinical and radiomics were 0.72 (95% CI 0.63-0.81), 77.78%, 59.34%, 65.44% and 0.75 (95% CI 0.66-0.84), 86.67%, 56.04%, 66.18%. The DCA in the training and validation sets showed that if the threshold probabilities were >0.05 and >0.1, respectively, using the deep learning model to distinguish PASC from PDAC was more beneficial for the patients than the treat-all-patients as having PDAC scheme or the treat-all-patients as having PASC scheme. Conclusions:The deep learning model based on CT automatic image segmentation of pancreatic neoplasm could effectively differentiate PASC from PDAC, and provide a new non-invasive method for confirming PASC before surgery.

ObjectiveTo explore the characteristics and regulatory mechanisms of cholestatic liver injury （CLI） caused by traditional Chinese medicine based on data mining， network pharmacology， and molecular docking. MethodChina National Knowledge Infrastructure and PubMed were searched for the relevant literature on CLI caused by traditional Chinese medicine from inception to 2024， and the information was standardized， summarized， and analyzed by cluster analysis. The Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform （TCMSP）， Integrative Pharmacology-based Research Platform of Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCMIP）， GeneCards， Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man （OMIM）， and DisGeNET were used to retrieve the active ingredients and targets of core medicines. The Venn diagram was established to map the common targets shared by the core medicines and CLI. Cytoscape 3.10.2 was used to construct the protein-protein interaction （PPI） network of the common targets. DAVID was used for gene ontology （GO） and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） enrichment of the core targets. Finally， molecular docking was performed by AutoDock Vina. ResultA total of 849 eligible articles were included in this study， from which 64 active ingredients of 39 herbal medicines that can cause cholestasis were counted and categorized according to the 2020 edition of the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China. The frequency of the medidicnes followed a descending order of heat-clearing medicines， exterior-releasing medicines， blood-activating and stasis-resolving medicines， purgative medicines， phlegm-resolving and cough- and dyspnea-relieving medicines， tonics， wind- and dampness-expelling medicines， interior-warming medicines， urination-promoting and dampness-draining medicines， Qi movement-regulating medicines， hemostatics， toxin-removing， worm-killing， and itch-relieving medicines， astringent medicines， dampness-eliminating medicines， and tranquiling medicines. The cluster analysis revealed that the reports of CLI caused by heat-clearing medicines accounted for the highest proportion of 39.69%. Among the heat-clearing medicines， Gardeniae Fructus （92 articles， accounting for 10.84%）， Scutellariae Radix （76 articles， 8.95%）， and Sophorae Flavescentis Radix （69 articles， 6.95%） were frequently reported. The core targets of cholestasis induced by Chinese herbal medicines reported to cause CLI mainly included tumor necrosis factor （TNF）， peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha （PPARA）， farnesoid X receptor （FXR）， glutamic-pyruvic transaminase 2 （GPT2）， superoxide dismutase 1 （SOD1）， interferon gamma （IFN-γ）， interleukin-6（IL-6）， CD36， Apolipoprotein A1（APOA1）， Angiotensin converting enzyme（ACE）， Cytochrome P450 3A4 enzyme（CYP3A4）， Protein kinase B1（Akt1）， APOB， albumin（ALB）， ATP binding cassette transporter A4（ABCB4）， SLC10A1， Estrogen Receptor alpha （ESR1）， signal transducer and activator of transcription1（STAT1）， β-actin（ACTB）， Endothelin 1（EDN1）， ABCG2， and peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma（PPARG）. The signaling pathways involved included bile secretion， ABC transporter， steroid biosynthesis， DNA adducts， drug metabolism， cytochrome P450， peroxisomes， primary bile acid biosynthesis， retinol metabolism， and Toll-like receptor. The molecular docking results showed that the active ingredients （e.g.， baicalin and berberine） of the heat-clearing medicines reported by high frequency to cause CLI had high binding affinity to the targets including ABCG2， IFN-γ， EDN1， IL-6 and SOD1， with the binding energy in the range of -13 kcal·mol^-1 to -9 kcal·mol^-1， and the regulatory pathways were highly correlated with transporters， microvascular function regulation， inflammation， and oxidative stress， which was consistent with the cluster analysis. ConclusionThe available reports about the Chinese herbal medicines causing CLI mainly focused on heat-clearing medicines， and the core targets included ABCG2， IFN-γ， EDN1， IL-6， and SOD1. The regulatory pathways were mainly related to transporters， microvascular function regulation， inflammation， and oxidative stress.
