With the extensive use of information technology and the development of big data technology, the traditional treatment methods for cancer are not meeting our needs.The application of medical large data has now changed our tumor treatment model profoundly, but also brings a deeply cognition to the nature of malignant tumor.Development of medical big data analysis and management technologies are driving malignancy treatment model fromindividual treatment era into the precision medicine era, which allows us to change the prediction, diagnosis, treatment and monitor of malignancy.There are also a variety of challenges to resolve.

Objective: To study difference of the immune response between oral administration and intraperitoneal injection of total polysaccharide of Sijunzi decoction (SJTP) in mice. Methods: The immunosuppressed mice model was established by intraperitoneal injection of cyclophosphamide (CY). The effects of SJTP on the weight of immune organs,hemolysin response and delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) were observed,and the influences on normal mouse spleen lymphocytic proliferation of mice were also studied. Results:SJTP can remarkably counteract the immunosuppression induced by CY, decrease the weight loss immune organs,increase the hemolysin response and DTH,and promote the proliferation of lymphocytes.The effect of oral administration is superior to intrapertoneal injection.Conclusion:SJTP can improve the humoral and cellalar immunity of mice.The immune activities resulting from oral administration of SJTP have some special characteristics,and its possible mechanism is also discussed.

BACKGROUND:Prolonged therapy with lamivudine has been associated with tyrosine-methionine-aspartate-aspartate mutation, which results in hepatitis B recurrence. Recently, antiviral agents, such as entecavir, have high efficacy and low resistance rate in hepatitis B-related liver disease. However, the researches on the effect of entecavir in preventing hepatitis B recurrence after liver transplantation are rare. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of entecavir combined with low-dose hepatitis B immunoglobulin in preventing hepatitis B recurrence after liver transplantation. METHODS:The fol ow-up data of 253 patients who had liver transplantation for hepatitis B virus related liver disease were retrospectively analyzed. Al patients received nucleoside analogues therapy formal y before liver transplantation. The effects of entecavir+hepatitis B immunoglobulin and lamivudine+hepatitis B immunoglobulin were compared in al the patients and the patents with hepatitis B recurrence risk factors (positive preoperative HBeAg, DNA-positive hepatitis B virus, hepatoma and tyrosine-methionine-aspartate-aspartate mutation). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 253 patients received hepatitis B virus-related liver transplantation, and 29 patients died. There were 202 patients in lamivudine group in which 26 patients were dead and 16 patients had hepatitis B virus recurrence, and the recurrence rate was 7.92%(16/202). However, entecavir group had 51 patients without hepatitis B virus recurrence in which three patients were dead. There were significant differences in the mortality rate and recurrence rate between two groups. Compared with the lamivudine+hepatitis B immunoglobulin, entecavir+hepatitis B immunoglobulin could effectively reduce the recurrence rate of the patients with hepatitis B virus-related risk factors. Hepatitis B immunoglobulin was terminated and nucleoside analogues were modulated when recurrence appeared. Al patients hepatitis B virus DNA were control ed less than 500 IU/mL and liver function returned to normal level. Log-rank test showed that there was no significant difference in the long-term survival rate after timely treatment of hepatitis B virus recurrence. With the prevention of nucleoside analogues combined with hepatitis B immunoglobulin therapy, timely treatment of hepatitis B recurrence has little influence on the prognosis. Entecavir combined with hepatitis B immunoglobulin can effectively prevent the hepatitis B recurrence. For the patients with hepatitis B virus-related risk factors, entecavir combined with hepatitis B immunoglobulin can better reduce the recurrence rate of hepatitis B than lamivudine+hepatitis B immunoglobulin after liver transplantation.

Conclusion Tp genotypes are diversified in patients with early syphilis in Guangxi, and the genotype 14 d/f is predominant.

ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors for tumor recurrence and death after liver transplantation in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and their survival. MethodsThe patients with HCC who underwent liver transplantation in The Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2005 to February 2019 were enrolled, and according to the presence or absence of HCC recurrence after liver transplantation, they were divided into recurrence group and non-recurrence group. The t-test or the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional-hazards regression model analyses were used to determine the risk factors for HCC recurrence and death after liver transplantation. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to investigate the predictive value of death-related risk factors after liver transplantation. ResultsA total of 391 HCC patients who underwent liver transplantation were enrolled, with a median follow-up time of 2 years, among whom 78(19.95%) experienced HCC recurrence. Preoperative alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) level＞200 ng/ml (recurrence: hazard ratio ［HR］=252, 95% confidence interval ［CI］: 1.58-4.03, P＜0.001; death: HR=2.99, 95%CI: 1.59-5.62, P＜0.001］, total tumor diameter (recurrence: HR=1.20, 95%CI: 1.12-1.28, P＜0.001; death: HR=1.10, 95%CI: 1.02-1.17, P=0.002), and vascular invasion (recurrence: HR=1.15, 95%CI: 1.04-1.26, P=0.016; death: HR=1.10, 95%CI: 1.03-1.18, P=0.004) were independent risk factors for tumor recurrence and death after liver transplantation. The 1-, 5-, and 10-year overall survival rates after liver transplantation were 94.8%, 84.2%, and 83.5%, respectively, and the 1-, 5-, and 10-year disease-free survival rates were 840%, 75.1%, and 75.1%, respectively. AFP, involvement of major blood vessels, body mass index, and total tumor diameter had a certain value in predicting the death of HCC patients with recurrence, with an area under the ROC curve of 0.789 (95% CI: 0.719-0858). ConclusionTumor biological features before transplantation are the key factors for tumor recurrence after transplantation.

Objective:To assess the susceptibility of gonococcal clinical isolates to gentamicin in Guangxi region, China, and to analyze the correlation between the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of gentamicin and MICs of 7 other antibiotics.Methods:From December 2020 to December 2021, 584 gonococcal clinical isolates were collected from 37 medical institutions in 14 prefecture-level cities in Guangxi region. The susceptibility of gonococcal clinical isolates to ceftriaxone, cefixime, azithromycin, spectinomycin, penicillin, tetracycline, ciprofloxacin and gentamicin was determined by using an agar dilution method. The MIC values of antibiotics were logarithmically transformed with base 2, and Spearman correlation analysis was carried out to evaluate the correlation between the MIC of gentamicin and MICs of the other 7 antibiotics.Results:The MIC of gentamicin ranged from 1 to 16 mg/L, and the MIC50 and MIC90 values were 4 and 8 mg/L, respectively; 361 strains (61.8%) were fully sensitive to gentamicin with the MIC ≤ 4 mg/L, 223 strains (38.2%) moderately sensitive with the MIC ranging from 8 to 16 mg/L, and no gentamicin-resistant strains were found. The number of strains resistant to azithromycin, penicillin, tetracycline and ciprofloxacin was 136 (23.3%), 415 (71.1%), 339 (58.0%) and 574 (98.3%) respectively, the number of lowly sensitive strains to ceftriaxone and cefixime was 17 (2.9%) and 6 (1.0%) respectively, and no spectinomycin-resistant strains were found. Spearman correlation analysis showed that the MIC of gentamicin was weakly correlated with the MICs of azithromycin, spectinomycin, penicillin, tetracycline, and ciprofloxacin (all P < 0.05), but was uncorrelated with the MICs of ceftriaxone and cefixime (both P > 0.05) . Conclusion:All gonococcal clinical isolates tested in this study showed a certain degree of susceptibility to gentamicin, and cross-resistance between gentamicin and other antibiotics was less likely to occur.

Objective:To investigate the effect of high-dose vitamin B6 on stress-induced liver cell death in rats with severe trauma and its possible mechanism.Methods:Thirty-two male SD rats were selected and divided into sham surgery group, sham surgery+B6 group, trauma group, and trauma+B6 group by using a random number table, with 8 rats in each group. Rat models of severe trauma were established by inducing abdominal wall injury, bilateral femoral fractures, unilateral cranial injury, and withdrawal of 4 ml blood from the femoral artery. The sham surgery+B6 group and trauma+B6 group were treated with saline solution plus high-dose vitamin B6, while the sham surgery group and trauma group with infusion of saline solution only. At 36 hours after injury, rat liver tissues were collected for the following experiments: (1) the genes differentially expressed in the liver tissues of the rats of the trauma group and the trauma+B6 group were screened with next-generation sequencing, followed by an analysis of the possible involvement of cell death pathways; (2) validation was conducted to ascertain whether high-dose vitamin B6 could influence various cell death pathways in the liver cells in the sham surgery group, sham surgery+B6 group, trauma group, and trauma+B6 group: apoptosis was confirmed through terminal-deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining; necroptosis was verified by mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) immunohistochemical staining; autophagy was examined via transmission electron microscopy; ferroptosis was confirmed by detecting oxidative malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, oxidized glutathione levels, Prussian blue staining with diaminobenzidine (DAB) enhancement, transmission electron microscopy, and immunohistochemical staining for acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4); (3) Biological information analyses [Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), and Gene Enrichment analysis (GSEA)] were performed for biological processes and signaling pathways represented by liver tissue sequencing results of rats between the trauma group and the trauma+B6 group.Results:(1) In the liver tissues of rats, there were 344 significantly differentially expressed genes between the trauma group and trauma+B6 group, comprising 137 upregulated genes and 207 downregulated genes, of which 18 genes were associated with apoptosis, autophagy, necroptosis, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis. (2) No significant differences were found in TUNEL staining among the sham surgery group, sham surgery+B6 group, trauma group or trauma+B6 group; MLKL protein expression levels in the liver tissues after trauma were improved, of which the trauma+B6 group was lower than that of the trauma group; Electron microscopy showed that autophagic activity in the liver cells were significantly increased after trauma, which was significantly lower of the trauma+B6 group than that of the trauma group; MDA levels in the rat liver tissues were (0.20±0.05)nmol/mg, (0.17±0.07)nmol/mg, (0.69±0.11)nmol/mg and (0.52±0.07)nmol/mg in the sham surgery group, sham surgery+B6 group, trauma group, and trauma+B6 group respectively ( P<0.01), with the trauma group having the highest MDA levels and trauma+B6 group having lower MDA levels than the trauma group; Oxidized glutathione levels in the liver tissues of the four groups were (11.75±2.09)μmol/g, (11.69±1.66)μmol/g, (19.75±3.40)μmol/g, and (14.51±1.46)μmol/g respectively ( P<0.01), with the trauma group having the highest levels and trauma+B6 group having lower levels than the trauma group; Significantly increased iron deposition was observed in the liver tissues after trauma, with lower iron deposition in trauma+B6 group than the trauma group; Electron microscopy revealed significantly lower mitochondrial membrane density in the trauma+B6 group compared to the trauma group. ACSL4 protein expression level was lower in the trauma+B6 group compared to the trauma group; (3) GO, KEGG and GSEA enrichment analyses suggested that high-dose vitamin B6 may enhance cholesterol synthesis metabolism in the liver cells and alleviate oxidative stress to reduce liver cell damage and restore normal liver cell function after trauma. Conclusions:High-dose vitamin B6 attenuates stress-induced liver injury in rats with severe trauma by inhibiting the progression of necroptosis, autophagy and ferroptosis. Its molecular mechanism may be associated with enhanced hepatic cholesterol synthesis metabolism and alleviation of oxidative stress in the liver cells.

Objective: To evaluate the preliminary efficacy and safety of the 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin (FOLF-OXIRI) and capecitabine, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin (CAPIRINOX) regimens as first-line therapy for unresectable advanced colorectal cancer. Methods: Between January 2013 and November 2018, 73 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) were analyzed. All patients received first-line chemotherapy. Of them, 45 patients were administered FOLFOXIRI, and the remaining 28 patients were ad-ministered CAPIRINOX. The clinical outcomes and safety profiles were evaluated according to the objective response rate (ORR), con-version resection rate, and adverse effects. Results: The ORR, median progression-free survival (mPFS), and R0 resection rate in the FOLFOXIRI group were not statistically different from those in the CAPIRINOX group (60% vs. 57.1%, 7.7 months vs. 9.6 months, 24.4% vs . 17.9% , respectively; P>0.05). No treatment-related deaths occurred. The major adverse events were leukopenia, neutropenia, fa-tigue, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, alopecia, aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase elevation, and neurotoxicity. The to-tal rate of grade 3/4 adverse events in the FOLFOXIRI group was 33.3% (15/45), while the total rate of grade 3/4 adverse events in the CAPIRINOX group was 46.4% (13/28). Toxicities between the two groups were not statistically significant (P=0.263). Conclusions: Both the FOLFOXIRI and CAPIRINOX regimens are effective as first-line treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer. The triple-agent chemo-therapy was associated with good efficacy and tolerable toxicity.

BACKGROUND: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths, patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) usually have distant metastases, such as bone metastasis, brain metastasis, and lung metastasis. The purpose of this study was to explore the risk factors for bone metastasis in NSCLC patients. METHODS: A total of 176 cases of NSCLC were selected from May 2009 to May 2011, and patients were divided into two groups, namely the bone metastasis group and non-bone metastasis group. The general clinicopathological data of the two groups and analyzing the independent risk factors of bone metastasis were compared. RESULTS: In the general clinicopathological data of NSCLC patients. The thrombus or not and tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage were closely related to the occurrence of bone metastasis, and were statistically significant (all P<0.01). Prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time, Fibrinogen, thrombin time, blood platelet, D-Dimer and alkaline phosphatase have significantly difference between the two groups (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that fibrinogen, activated partial thromboplast in time, alkaline phosphatase, T4 phase, N3 phase and d-dimer were independent risk factors for bone metastasis in NSCLC patients. CONCLUSIONS Fibrinogen, alkaline phosphatase, T3, N2 stage and D-Dimer is the independent risk factors of bone metastases in patients with NSCLC.
