ObjectiveTo investigate the expression level of mammalian sterile 20-like kinase 1 （MST1） in prostate cancer （PCa） tissues， its biological functions， and its regulatory effects on androgen receptor （AR） and vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） expression. MethodsImmunohistochemistry was performed to detect MST1 expression in 77 prostate cancer tissues and 34 benign prostatic hyperplasia （BPH） tissues， and the relationship between MST1 expression and clinicopathological parameters was analyzed. MST1-overexpressing C4-2 and LNCaP cell lines were constructed. CCK-8 assay， Transwell migration assay， and angiogenesis assay were conducted to evaluate the effects of MST1 on cell proliferation， migration， and angiogenesis. The expression changes of AR and VEGF were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot. ResultsMST1 expression was significantly lower in PCa tissues compared with BPH tissues （P=0.012）. Low MST1 expression was significantly associated with tumor metastasis （P=0.033）. MST1 overexpression inhibited C4-2 cell proliferation and migration， with transmembrane migrated cells reduced by 53.6% （P<0.01）. MST1 overexpression decreased the mRNA and protein expression levels of AR and VEGF （P<0.05）. Angiogenesis assay demonstrated that the length of new vessel structure was significantly reduced （P<0.05）. ConclusionMST1 shows a low expression level in PCa tissues and is associated with tumor metastasis. MST1 exerts tumor-suppressive effects in prostate cancer by inhibiting cell proliferation， migration， and angiogenesis， as well as downregulating the expression of AR and VEGF， indicating its potential as a therapeutic target for prostate cancer.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of physical activity(PA)in overweight and obese children from the individual,family and environment levels.Methods Using a stratified cluster random sampling method,315 children[mean age:9.57±1.45 years;201 boys(63.8%)and 114 girls(36.2%)]were selected from two classes of every grade of one public elementary school in the four main urban districts of Shijiazhuang.Hierarchical linear regression models were employed to ana-lyze the influence of 20 factors on individual,family and environment levels on PA among them.Re-sults Children's age(β=-0.02),sex(βmale=0.12),sedentary time(β=-0.07),ball skills(β=0.12),perceived motor competence(β=0.18),primary caregiver's PA(β=0.17),parental PA support(β=0.10)and home/neighborhood PA environment(β=0.40)were significant factors of their moderate-to-vigorous physical activities(P<0.05).For light physical activity(LPA)and total PA,only sedentary time(βLPA=-0.57,βtotal=-0.52),parental support for children's PA(βLPA=0.15,βtotal=0.16),and home/neighborhood PA environment(βLPA=0.17,βtotal=0.15)were significant predictors(Pall<0.05).Conclusion The influencing factors of PA among overweight and obese children are complex and multidimensional.Elements at the individual,family and environment levels all play significant roles.Therefore,future interventions and policies aimed at promoting PA in this population should take these multifaceted de-terminants into consideration.

Objective:To understand the incidence of diabetes and influencing factors, the trend of FPG change and risk for mortality in HIV-infected individuals after antiretroviral therapy (ART) in Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture (Dehong).Methods:The HIV/AIDS treatment database was collected from China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention. This retrospective cohort study was conducted in HIV-infected individuals with access to ART in Dehong during 2004-2020.The Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to analyze the incidence density of diabetes, the influencing factors and risk for mortality in HIV-infected individuals with access to ART, mixed linear effects model was used to analyze the trend of FPG change and predict FPG in those with different glucose metabolic status at baseline survey. Statistical analysis was performed using software SAS 9.4.Results:A total of 8 763 HIV-infected individuals were included, in whom 8 432 (96.2%) had no diabetes, 331 had diabetes. The incidence density of diabetes was 2.31/1 000 person years. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis revealed that 30- 59 years old, BMI ≥24.0 kg/m 2, Efavirenz (EFV) based initial treatment regimen and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) at baseline survey were significantly and positively associated with incidence of diabetes. Mixed effect model revealed that FPG was positively correlated with the duration of ART, age and baseline FPG. Suffering from diabetes was a risk factor for mortality in HIV-infected individuals both at baseline survey and during follow-up. Conclusions:The risk for diabetes increased in HIV-infected individuals who were 30-59 years old, baseline BMI ≥24.0 kg/m 2, received EFV based initial treatment, and IFG in HIV-infected individuals after antiretroviral therapy in Dehong, 2004-2020. It is important to pay close attention to their blood glucose, and patients with high blood glucose should receive treatment as early as possible.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of detachable string magnetically controlled capsule endoscopy(ds-MCE)in patients with liver cirrhosis.Methods Patients with liver cirrhosis were screened for esophagogastroduodenoscopy(EGD)and ds-MCE examination to assess the accuracy of ds-MCE in identifying gastroesophageal varices,high-risk esophageal varices and portal hypertensive gastropathy using EGD as the gold standard,and evaluate the detection of portal hypertensive enteropathy and the comfort level of patients.Results From May 2021 to July 2022,a total of 53 patients with liver cirrhosis were successfully enrolled.With EGD as the gold standard,ds-MCE detected esophageal varices with 95.45％for sensitivity,100％for specificity and adjusted positive predictive value(PPV),95.65％for adjusted negative predictive value(NPV),and 0.877 for Kappa value(P＜0.001).For detection of gastric varices,ds-MCE had sensitivity,specificity,adjusted PPV,and adjusted NPV of 93.94％,90％,90.38％and 93.69％,and Kappa value of 0.839(P＜0.001).For detection of portal hypertension gastropathy,ds-MCE had sensitivity,specificity,adjusted PPV and adjusted NPV of 80％,90.70％,89.59％and 81.93％,and Kappa value of 0.657(P＜0.001).In differentiating high-risk esophageal varices,the sensitivity,specificity,adjusted PPV,and adjusted NPV were 76％,100％,100％and 77.43％,respectively;Kappa value was 0.770(P＜0.001).Of the patients with liver cirrhosis,26.0％(13/50)were diagnosed with portal hypertensive enteropathy.The main mucosal changes were edema,erythema,and vascular dysplasia.The ds-MCE comfort score of 3(2,4)was higher than that of the traditional EGD 1(0,3)(P＜0.000 1).Conclusion Compared with EGD,ds-MCE is an accurate,safe,feasible and comfortable method for detecting esophagogastric varices and portal hypertensive gastropathy in patients with liver cirrhosis.It is a potential alternative to EGD screening surveillance of gastroesophageal varices in patients with liver cirrhosis.

Objective:To detect the status of PIK3CA in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) , and to analyze the relationships between PIK3CA mutation and clinical features and its impact on prognosis.Methods:From January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2018, 50 patients with primary TNBC admitted to Xinxiang Central Hospital of Henan Province were collected. The PIK3CA mutation status was detected, and the relationships between PIK3CA mutation and clinical characteristics of patients with TNBC and its impact on prognosis were analyzed.Results:PIK3CA gene mutation was detected in 9 of 50 TNBC patients, with a mutation frequency of 18.0%. H1047R mutation was found in 4 cases, E545K mutation in 3 cases and E542K mutation in 2 cases. PIK3CA gene mutation was not associated with age ( χ2=3.55, P=0.060) , tumor location ( χ2=1.01, P=0.315) , tumor size ( χ2<0.01, P>0.999) , lymph node status ( χ2=0.76, P=0.385) , clinical stage ( χ2=0.65, P=0.420) , Ki-67 value ( χ2<0.01, P>0.999) , P53 status ( χ2=0.02, P=0.894) and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) status ( χ2=1.65, P=0.200) . Prognostic analysis showed that 3-year disease-free survival rates of wild-type PIK3CA patients was significantly higher than that of mutant PIK3CA patients (80.5% vs. 11.1%, χ2=28.23, P<0.001) . Conclusion:The frequency of PIK3CA gene mutation is higher in TNBC patients. There is no correlation between PIK3CA mutation and clinicopathologic features in TNBC patients. PIK3CA gene mutation may be significantly associated with poor prognosis of TNBC patients.
