Objective:To investigate the effects of psychological state on the setup errors of radiotherapy for breast cancer patients.Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted. A total of 193 breast cancer patients in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College from October 2022 to May 2023 were selected. Radiotherapy was performed after fixation with an integrated multi-functional device for the head, chest and abdomen. Psychological status of patients was assessed by using 9-item health questionnaire (PHQ-9) and generalized anxiety disorder 7 self-rating scale (GAD-7) before first radiotherapy, the 10th radiotherapy and the last radiotherapy. Based on the results of the questionnaires, patients were divided into psychological problem (anxiety or depression) group and non-psychological problem group. The general data and setup errors of radiotherapy in both groups were compared.Results:All the 193 patients were female, with a median age of 47 years. There were 53 patients in psychological problem group and they underwent a total of 507 image-guided procedures, with setup errors [ M ( Q1, Q3)] of 0.18 (0.07, 0.33), 0.20 (0.10, 0.33) and 0.19 (0.09, 0.30) in the left-right (X), superior-inferior (Y), and anterior-posterior (Z) directions, respectively; the remaining 140 patients in non-psychological problem group underwent 1 240 image-guided procedures, with setup errors [ M ( Q1, Q3)]of 0.17 (0.08, 0.30), 0.20 (0.10, 0.30) and 0.18 (0.09, 0.28) in the X, Y, and Z directions, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( Z values were -3.78, -2.00; P < 0.001, P = 0.046). Conclusions:Anxiety and depression have an influence on the setup errors of radiotherapy in patients with breast cancer. In the processs of radiotherapy for breast cancer, it is important to pay attention to the psychological status of patients.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of hepatitis B in Guangzhou from 2006 to 2018. Methods The data were retrieved from the National Infectious Disease Surveillance Information Report Management System. Descriptive methods were used to analyze and summarize the results. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis of classification data, and Joinpoint software was used to analyze the annual change percentage and trend. Results A total of 292 674 cases of hepatitis B were reported in Guangzhou from 2006 to 2018, and the annual average reported incidence was 182.2 per 100,000. Chronic hepatitis B was the main type, accounting for 89.9%. The incidence rate of males (241.6 / 105) was higher than that of females (117.9 / 105), with a ratio of 2.0:1. During the period from 2006-2018, the reported incidence of hepatitis B in Guangzhou first increased, reached the highest in 2008, and then decreased year by year. There was no significant difference in the number of HBV cases among different months. The average onset age of hepatitis B reported in Guangzhou was 39.3 years old, and the average onset age increased year by year from 2006 to 2018. Conclusion The incidence rate of hepatitis B in Guangzhou has decreased since 2008, but it was still higher than the national average incidence rate. The hepatitis B infection in Guangzhou remains a big issue. It is suggested to further strengthen the prevention and control of hepatitis B in adults by maintaining a national immunization program for children, thereby reducing the epidemiological level of hepatitis B in Guangzhou.

With increasing use of carbapenem antibiotics , carbapenems-resistant gram-negative bacteria are spreading, and carbapenemase-producing is the main mechanism of carbapenems resistance . Rapid and accurate identification of carbapenemase and its type is of great importance to timely and effective treatment and control of infections .Chromogenic /Fluorogenic culture media, modified Hodge test and double disk synergy test are traditional methods for carbapenemase detection , but all are time-consuming. Biochemical method is more time efficient and with high sensitivity and specificity , but cannot be used to identify subtypes.Now matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization -time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) has been successfully applied in the identification of species , subtypes and detection of drug -resistant genes.And among various carbapenemase gene detection techniques , next generation sequencing (NGS) can also be used for the detection of integrons , transposons and plasmids, which is important in both epidemiology and resistant mechanism studies .This article reviews the advantages and disadvantages of various methods for phenotype and gene detection of carbapenemase .

Objectives To investigate the clinical significance of dual energy spectral CT (DESCT) in quantitatively differentiating peripheral lung cancers from pulmonary inflammatory masses.Methods Sixty patients with 35 lung cancers and 25 inflammatory masses underwent DESCT to get arterial phase (AP) images and venous phase (VP) images.Iodine concentrations in the central and peripheral zone of the masses were measured and normalized to the aorta as normalised iodine concentration (NIC).The difference of NIC between central and peripheral zone of the masses (dNIC) was calculated.The spectral attenuation curve was obtained automatically and the slope of curve (λHU) was also calculated in the two groups.The quantitative parameters was presented as M (Q1,Q3),and Wilcoxon signed rank test was used to compare above two independent samples.Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to calculate the sensitivity and specificity.Results NICs in the central zone of peripheral lung cancers were significantly lower than that of inflammatory masses:mean NICs were 0.03 (0,0.05) versus 0.12 (0.07,0.20) in AP,and 0.14 (0.12,0.19) versus 0.30 (0.21,0.57) in VP (Z=-4.14,-3.70,respectively,P＜0.01).While the dNIC values of lung cancers were significantly higher than that of inflammatory masses:dNIC values were 0.08 (0.05,0.11) versus 0.04 (-0.02,0.08) in AP,and 0.23 (0.17,0.34)versus 0.07 (-0.04,0.08) in VP(Z=-2.56,-4.00,respectively,P＜0.05).Mean λHU values of lung cancers were also lower than inflammatory masses:1.03 (0.67,1.67)versus 2.75 (1.61,3.19) in AP,and 1.58 (1.30,2.17) versus 3.25 (2.37,4.54) in VP (Z=-3.90,-4.42 respectively,P＜0.01).According to ROC curves,cutoff value of λHU =2.11 in VP had the highest sensitivity (89％) and specificity (91％) in differentiating peripheral lung cancers from inflammatory masses.Conclusions Contrast-enhanced dual energy spectral CT imaging with some quantitative parameters such as normalised iodine concentration,dNIC,and the slope of spectral attenuation curves may be a promising new method for differentiating peripheral lung cancers from inflammatory masses.
