Objective To investigate the screening results and factors affecting abnormal detection rates among high-risk groups of esophageal cancer and to explore effective intervention measures. Methods We investigated and collected the information on gender, education level, age, marital status, symptoms of reflux esophagitis (heartburn, acid reflux, belching, hiccup, foreign body sensation in the pharynx, and difficulty swallowing), consumption of pickled vegetables, salt use, and esophageal cancer incidence of villagers in a natural village in Wenfeng District, Anyang City, Henan Province. Changes in reflux esophagitis symptoms in the high-incidence area of esophageal cancer before and after 16 years were observed, and the relationship of such changes with esophageal cancer was analyzed. Results In 2008, 711 cases were epidemiologically investigated, including 213 cases with one of the symptoms of reflux esophagitis such as heartburn, acid reflux, belching, hiccups, foreign body sensation in the pharynx, and difficulty swallowing (sorted in accordance with the abovementioned symptoms; if there are multiple symptoms, then the former is taken); 55 cases with at least two related symptoms, among which the most symptom was heartburn in 108 cases (15.1%); followed by acid reflux, belching, etc. In 2024, the same group of people was investigated, and eight people were missing because of relocation. A total of 703 people were successfully investigated, of which 189 cases (26.8%) had one of the symptoms of reflux esophagitis, such as heartburn (sorted in accordance with relevant symptoms, if there are multiple symptoms, then the former will be selected); 167 cases (23.7%) had at least two related symptoms, among which the most symptom was heartburn in 139 cases (19.7%); followed by acid reflux. Over 16 years, among the 703 people investigated, 45 cases had esophageal cancer and they had one or more of the abovementioned symptoms. No significant differences in the reflux esophagitis-like symptoms were found between 2008 and 2024 (P=0.26); no significant differences in the composition of reflux esophagitis-like symptoms were found between 2008 and 2024 (P=0.299). Conclusion The detection rate of reflux esophagitis-related symptoms in the population in a high-risk area of esophageal cancer has not decreased in the past 16 years, and the high-risk factors still exist. Esophageal cancer is closely related to reflux esophagitis, and clinical practice can provide early diagnosis and treatment for high-risk population.

The molecular mechanisms underlying the health-promoting effects of exercise remain to be fully elucidated. As a bridge between genetics, exercise and phenotype, metabolites can be detected in high throughput through metabolomics, offering valuable insights into mechanism elucidation and disease prediction. Metabolic homeostasis is intricately regulated by various factors, including enzyme activity and transporters. Integration of multiple omics technologies such as genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics enables the comprehensive elucidation of the metabolic network modulated by exercise interventions and facilitates the identification of key metabolic markers. This review summarizes the current research advancements, biological functions, discovery methods, and applications of exercise-induced multi omics metabolic markers, furnishing a theoretical foundation for understanding the mechanisms of exercise-induced health benefits and enabling precision interventions. Relevant literatures from 2000 to 2025 were systematically retrieved from databases including PubMed, CNKI and other databases with the keywords such as “multi-omics”, “metabolic biomarkers”, “exercise”, “health”. Subsequently, the identified literature was meticulously screened to meet the specified criteria and was subsequently incorporated into the study. (1) Exercise induces profound alterations in metabolite levels within the body, with particular emphasis on markers associated with sugar, lipid, and protein metabolism being extensively investigated. As an intensity marker, lactate is implicated in the regulation of fat browning (UCP-1), angiogenesis (VEGF), mitochondrial function (PGC-1α) and metabolic homeostasis (HIF-1α/CES2). Following resistance training, pyruvate levels increase, and an aberrant pyruvate to lactate ratio (approximately 10) may indicate mitochondrial dysfunction. Supplementation with pyruvate has been shown to reduce weight and lipid levels. Ketone bodies regulate metabolism by inhibiting lipolytic enzyme activity and promoting insulin secretion. Plasma ketone body concentrations rise after high-intensity exercise, with levels positively associated with central fatigue. Carnitine levels elevate post-endurance training, and supplementation with carnitine has been linked to increased lean body mass and enhanced cognitive function in older individuals. Serum alanine levels rise following resistance training and, as a precursor of carnosine, supplementation can elevate carnosine concentration by 80%, exerting antioxidant and neuroprotective effects. Creatine, a pivotal molecule in phosphogen energy supply, exhibits a 93% increase in plasma levels post-marathon, with its metabolism intricately related to AMPK activation. (2) Metabolites play a crucial role in disease prediction, particularly in the context of cardiovascular disease where 18 metabolites including glycoprotein acetyl and ketone bodies have been shown to enhance the performance of prediction models. Similarly, in diabetes research, acylcarnitine and other metabolites can improve prediction model efficacy. The combination of multiple metabolites has been found to substantially enhance predictive capabilities for various conditions such as cancer, aging, and other risks, surpassing the predictive power of traditional indicators. (3) Genomics investigations have unveiled the genetic underpinnings of exercise-related metabolites. VO₂max, a significant exercise phenotype with heritability estimates ranging from 0.59 to 0.66, exhibits a negative correlation with the susceptibility to diabetes and cardiovascular disease. SNPs associated with VO₂max, such as variants in the FSHR gene, are positively linked to serum creatinine levels. Reduced creatinine levels have been associated with an elevated risk of T2DM. These findings suggest that creatinine serves as a potential marker of exercise metabolism. (4) Transcriptomic studies have elucidated the molecular mechanisms by which exercise modulates metabolites. Acute exercise induces rapid alterations in the expression profiles of 9 132 transcripts. Exercise elicits upregulation of genes involved in the fructose/mannose metabolic pathway (such as SORD, PFKFB3), suggesting these metabolites may serve as pivotal mediators in the beneficial effects of exercise on Parkinson’s disease. Altitude training enhances the expression of the PHOSPHO1 gene, which encodes an enzyme facilitating choline synthesis. Choline deficiency has been linked to insulin resistance. Choline supplementation has been shown to augment the effects of resistance training, underscoring the significance of choline as a key marker in exercise-mediated metabolic health promotion. (5) Proteomic analyses have unveiled the key mechanisms through which exercise modulates metabolism. Endurance training induces significant alterations in myofibrillar expression, with 237 slow muscles and 172 fast muscles proteins showing differential regulation, of which 65% are associated with metabolism, including ACSL1 and ECHS1. Various training modalities elicit distinct phosphorylation modifications, exemplified by the negative correlation between LDHA3 phosphorylation and lactate levels. Endurance training upregulates SLC25A15 expression in adipose tissue, enhancing arginine synthesis. The post-exercise elevation of plasma GPLD1 levels mimics the neuroprotective effects of exercise on the brain. These findings present novel targets for investigating exercise-related metabolic markers. The application of multi omics technologies has expedited the identification and mechanistic analysis of both established and novel sports-related metabolic markers like lactate. Integrated multi omics strategies (e.g., genome-metabolome) enable the simultaneous examination of metabolic markers and their regulatory mechanisms, facilitating the discovery of exercise-related genetic markers and pivotal regulatory proteins. However, challenges persist, including inadequate data integration and a lack of standardization. Future endeavors should focus on developing dynamic monitoring tools, integrating state-of-the-art approaches such as single-cell/spatial omics, and leveraging AI algorithms for optimized analysis to construct precise predictive models for maximizing health benefits in exercise.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of Venetoclax combined with CACAG regimen in treatment of patients with refractory/relapse acute myeloid leukemia(R/R AML).Methods:The study was a singlecenter prospective clinical trial.The enrolled patients met the criteria for R/R AML.Treatment included Azacidine(75mg/m2,d1-7),Ara-C(75-100 mg/m2,q12h,d1-5),Aclacinomycin(20 mg d1,d3,d5),Chidamide(30 mg d1,d4),Venetoclax(100 mg d1,200 mg d2,400 mg d3-d14,in combination with Triazole Drug,reduced to 100 mg/d),and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor(300 μg/d until neutrophil recovery).The primary endpoint of observation was overall response rate after 1 course of treatment.Results:A total of 19 patients were enrolled from January 2022 to April 2023.After 1 course of treatmen,the overall response rate was 81.3％(13/16),the CR rate was 68.8％(11/16),and the PR was 12.5％(2/16).Among the 11 patients who got CR/CRi,8 cases achieved CRm(minimal residual disease negative CR)and 3 cases did not.As of March 27,2023,the median follow-up time was 111(19-406)days.The six-month overall survival and progression-free survival rates were both 55.7％,the 1-year overall survival and progression-free survival rates were 46.4％and 47.7％,respectively.In addition,compared with the non-CRm group,CRm patients had a better PFS(377 days vsi11 days,P=0.046).Treatment-related adverse events were mainly 3-4 degrees of bone marrow suppression,complicated by various degrees of infection(n=12),hypokalemia(n=12)and hypocalcemia(n=10)and elevated liver enzymes(n=8),of which 3/4 degrees accounted for 47.4％(9/19).Conclusion:The Venetoclax combined with CACAG regimen is an effective salvage therapy for patients with R/R AML,with high remission rate and safety profile.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics,coexisting gene mutations and prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia(AML)patients with GATA2 gene mutation.Methods:The clinical data of 370 newly diagnosed AML patients treated in our hospital from January 2008 to January 2021 was analyzed retrospectively,the next-generation sequencing technology was used to detect the mutated genes in those patients.The clinical characteristics of AML patients with GATA2 mutations,the co-mutated genes of GATA2 mutations,and the effect of GATA2 mutation on prognosis were analyzed.Results:A total of 23 patients(6.2％)with GATA2 mutation was detected in 370 AML patients.Compared with GATA2 non-mutation group,patients in GATA2 mutation group were mostly normal karyotypes(P=0.037)and in low-risk cytogenetic stratification(P=0.028).The incidence of CEBPAdm and NRAS in GATA2 mutation group was significantly higher than that in GATA2 non-mutation group(P=0.010,P=0.009).There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of sex,age,white blood cell count(WBC),platelet count,hemoglobin,bone marrow(BM)blast,induction chemotherapy regimen and CR rate(P＞0.05).Among the 23 patients with GATA2 mutation,the most common co-mutated genes were CEBPAdm,NRAS(both 39.1％),NPM1,FLT3,TET2,WT1(all 17.4％),ASXL1 and IDH1(both 13.0％).Survival analysis showed that there was no statistical difference in 5-year overall survival(OS)and leukemia-free survival(LFS)rates between patients with and without GATA2 mutations in whole cohort(n=370)(P=0.306,P=0.308).Among 306 patients without CEBPAdm,the 5-year OS and LFS rates in GATA2 mutation group showed an increasing trend compared with GATA2 non-mutation group,but the difference was not statistically significant(P=0.092,P=0.056).Among 64 patients with CEBPAdm,there was no statistically significant difference in 5-year OS rate between the GATA2 mutation group and the GATA2 non-mutation group(P=0.104),but the 5-year LFS rate of the GATA2 mutation group was significantly decreased(P=0.047).Among the 23 patients with GATA2 mutation,16 cases received the"3+7"induction regimen,of which 12 cases received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT);7 cases received the"DCAG"induction regimen,of which 3 cases received allo-HSCT.The CR rate was not statistically different between the"3+7"regimen group and the"DCAG"regimen group(P=1.000).The 5-year OS rate and LFS rate in the transplantation group were significantly higher than the chemotherapy group(P=0.021,P=0.020).Conclusion:GATA2 mutation is more common in AML patients with normal karyotype and low-risk cytogenetic stratification,and it is significantly associated with CEBPAdm and NRAS co-mutations.The prognostic significance of GATA2 is influenced by CEBPAdm.The choice of"3+7"or"DCAG"induction regimen in patients with GATA2 mutation does not affect their CR rate,while the choice of allo-HSCT can significantly improved the prognosis compared with chemotherapy only.

Objective: To compare the long-term clinical and radiographic outcomes of transforaminal endoscopic lumbar discectomy (TELD) versus microdiscectomy (MD). Methods: The data of 154 patients with lumbar disc herniation (LDH) who underwent TELD (n = 89) or MD (n = 65) were retrospectively analyzed. The patients’ clinical outcomes were evaluated using visual analogue scales for leg and low back pain, the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score, and the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). The evolution of radiographic manifestations was observed during follow-up. Potential risk factors for a poor clinical outcome were investigated. Results: During a mean follow-up of 5.5 years (range, 5–7 years), the recurrence rate was 4.49% in the TELD group and 1.54% in the MD group. All scores significantly improved from preoperatively to postoperatively in both groups (p < 0.01). The improvement in the ODI and JOA scores was significantly greater in the TELD than MD group (p < 0.05). Forty-seven patients (52.8%) in the TELD group and 32 (49.2%) in the MD group had Modic changes before surgery, most of which showed no changes at the last follow-up. The degeneration grades of 292 discs (71.0%) were unchanged at the last follow-up, while 86 (20.9%) showed improvement, mostly at the upper adjacent segment. No significant difference was observed in the intervertebral height index or paraspinal muscle-disc ratio. Conclusion Both TELD and MD provide generally satisfactory long-term clinical outcomes for patients with LDH. TELD can be used as a reliable alternative to MD with less surgical trauma. Modic type II changes, decreased preoperative intervertebral height, and a high body mass index are predictors of a poor prognosis.
