2.Research progress on lung cancer caused by welding fumes
China Occupational Medicine 2022;49(2):222-227
Welding fumes exposure increased the risk of lung cancer. The factors that cause lung cancer included:welding fume
of chromium,nickel and their compounds,smoking and asbestos dust,welding types and welding materials. The results of
animal experiments showed that the metal compounds in welding fumes could be deposited in lung tissue and caused persistent
mild inflammation which led to increase lung tumor in animal models. Chromium,nickel,iron compounds could cause tumor
separately. The use of tumor initiator pretreatment led to increase the number of lung tumor with statistical significance. The
mechanisms of lung cancer development include chronic inflammation that caused by continuous deposition of carcinogenic
metal oxides such as chromium and nickel in the lung. Free radicals peroxidation causes DNA damage,which acts on tumor
related
genes and causes their abnormal expression and generates lung tumor cells. Activating telomerase activity may promote
normal cells transform into immortalized tumor cells. By activating nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor-2 and nuclear factor
Kappa B signaling,welding fumes cause inflammation,DNA damage and formation of lung tumor cells. Welding fumes also
intervenes immune modulatory system and leads to tumor cell formation.

China Oncology 2017;27(8):655-660
Background and purpose: Paget's disease (PD) of the breast is a rare disease. The survival of PD was reported to be related to the characteristics of the underlying carcinoma. This study aimed to investigate the char-acteristics and survival of PD patients with underlying invasive breast carcinoma (IBC). Methods: Fifty-four patients diagnosed with PD and an associated IBC in Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center from 2002 to 2007 were re-cruited in this study as study group. Since most PD overexpress HER-2, 72 patients with HER-2-overexpressing breast cancer were randomly recruited as control group. This study compared survival between these two groups. Results:Twenty-five (46.3%) patients in study group had no clinical manifestation of PD and were diagnosed unexpectedly by a histologic examination. Thirty-five (64.8%) patients in study group had tumors larger than 2 cm, twenty-six(48.1%) patients in study group had chance of axillary lymph node involvement. Compared with control group, patients in study group tended to have more events (5-year relapse-free survival: 76.4% vs 48.5%, P<0.01). In the control group, most events occurred in the first 3 years after operation, while recurrence might happen all along in the 5 years after opera-tion in study group. Patients in study group also had a poorer overall survival than in control group (61.0% vs 80.6%, P=0.01). Conclusion: Patients with Paget's disease and underlying invasive breast cancer tend to have poorer survival than those with HER-2-overexpressing breast cancer.
