【Objective】 To investigate the recurrence of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN), and to explore the related factors of recurrence. 【Methods】 Clinical data of 367 RCC patients who underwent RAPN during 2015 and 2020 in our hospital were retrospectively collected. Patients were divided into recurrence group and non-recurrence group. The related factors of recurrence and 5-year cumulative recurrence rate of RCC and clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) in the recurrence group were analyzed. 【Results】 The median follow-up was 48 (IQR:38-60) months. Recurrence occurred in 9 patients, with a 5-year cumulative recurrence rate of 97.5%. For RCC patients, univariate analysis showed that tumor size, T-stage, R. E. N. A. L. score, R value, N value, and operation time were significantly associated with postoperative recurrence (P<0.05), while multivariate analysis showed that N value (HR=15.75, 95%CI:2.00-124.17, P=0.009) was an independent related factor. For ccRCC patients, univariate analysis showed that hypertension, tumor size, T-stage, R. E. N. A. L. score, N value, operation time and WHO/ISUP grade were significantly associated with postoperative recurrence (P<0.05), while multivariate analysis showed that WHO/ISUP grade (HR=4.99, 95%CI:1.04-24.01, P=0.045) was an independent related factor. 【Conclusion】 The 5-year cumulative recurrence rate of RCC patients after RAPN is 2.5%. N value and WHO/ISUP grade are the independent related factor of recurrence of RCC and ccRCC, respectively.

【Objective】 To compare the clinical efficacy of robot-assisted and open surgery in the treatment of renal carcinoma with inferior vena cava cancer thrombus, and to analyze the safety and feasibility of robot-assisted radical nephrectomy. 【Methods】 Clinical data of 55 patients surgically treated for renal carcinoma with Mayo Ⅰ-Ⅲ inferior vena cava tumor thrombus during Dec.2015 and Dec.2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Based on the operation methods, the patients were divided into the robotic surgery group (n=36) and open surgery group (n=19). The perioperative data, oncological results and survival of the two groups were compared. 【Results】 All operations were successful. The median operation time was 176 (IQR:137-234) min, and grade Ⅲ and above complications occurred in 9(16.4%) cases. The robotic surgery group had lower intraoperative blood loss [300 (IQR:200-625) mL vs.1 000 (IQR:600-1 184) mL] and blood transfusion ratio [(20/36) vs. (18/19)] than the open surgery group, but higher postoperative hemoglobin level[109(98-120) g/L vs. 90(84-100) g/L]. During a median follow-up of 26 (IQR:19-39) months, 19(34.5%) patients developed new metastases and 12(21.8%) patients died. The postoperative tumor-specific survival (HR=0.39, 95%CI:0.13-1.16, P=0.090) and overall survival (HR=0.71, 95%CI:0.22-2.23,P=0.554) were not significantly different between the two groups. 【Conclusion】 There are no significant differences in the incidence of postoperative complications, tumor-specific survival and overall survival between robot-assisted and open surgery for Mayo Ⅰ-Ⅲ inferior vena cava tumor thrombus, but the intraoperative blood loss in robotic group is lower than that in the open surgery group.

【Objective】 To compare the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of robot-assisted and open radical nephrectomy for complex kidney neoplasm >8 cm in diameter. 【Methods】 Clinical data of 24 patients with large kidney neoplasm undergoing robot-assisted radical nephrectomy (9 cases, 37.5%) and open radical nephrectomy (15 cases, 62.5%) during Nov.2015 and Aug.2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The surgical parameters, perioperative complications and follow-up outcomes were compared between the two groups. 【Results】 All operations were successful. Compared with the robot group, the open group had a higher incidence of clinical symptoms (93.3% vs.44.4%, P=0.015) and larger maximum tumor diameter (124 mm vs.95 mm, P=0.021). There were no significant differences in other preoperative characteristics between the two groups. The robot group had less intraoperative blood loss (100 mL vs.800 mL, P=0.006) and lower blood transfusion rate (0% vs. 60.0%, P=0.007) than the open group. During the median follow-up of 50 (range: 25-67) months, 4 patients in the open group and 1 in the robot group developed new metastases, and 4 patients in the open group died due to advanced tumor stage. 【Conclusion】 Robot-assisted radical nephrectomy is safe in the treatment of complex and large renal tumors, and causes less intraoperative blood loss than open surgery.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2022;43(8):1189-1192
Objective:
To explore dynamics of parenting styles of adolescents from 1999 to 2019 from the perspective of intergenerational conflict, to provide support for family education and adolescent healthy development.
Methods:
Using a multistage stratified cluster random sampling method, the unified questionnaire was administered to 2 590 students in the same sampling junior and senior high schools in 1999, 2009, and 2019 using the Egna Minnen av Barndoms Uppfostran own memories of parental rearing practices in childhood(EMBU).
Results:
Overall there were differences in the nine factors of parenting styles across generations ( F = 12.07-72.52, P <0.01), with decreasing ratings of warmth and understanding of father and mother (F1, M1), over interference of father (F3) over generations(F1:46.72±9.41, 45.87±11.33, 43.61±11.27; M1:51.56±9.38, 51.03±11.59, 46.23± 12.27 ; F3:19.03±4.00, 18.29±4.32, 17.95±4.51), and all other parenting styles rated higher in 2019 than in 2009 and 1999(except for the over protection and over interference of mother, and punishment, firm control of mother). Parenting styles across generations (except for the rejection and denial of father among girls) showed gender difference.The overall gender trend coincided with the total population trend. Parenting styles across generations varied significantly among middle and high school students( F =3.92-47.27, P <0.05 ), changes in F1 and F3 factors coincided with the overall decreasing trend. Factor analysis showed that parenting styles could be classified into two dimensions, with varied factor loading across generation.
Conclusion
Intergenerational decreases in parental emotional warmth and paternal interfering are observed in a sex and grade specific manner. Based on the diversity of needs and population differentiation, optimal intervention for comprehensive health development of adolescents are in great need to keep pace with the times and promoting the high quality development of adolescents.

Objective :
To explore the potential targets, pathways and related mechanisms of artesunate(ART) in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) based on network pharmacology and Bioinformatics.
Methods:
The potential targets of ART were screened through pharmmapper database, PPI network was constructed and visual analysis was performed.The data of 424 HCC samples were downloaded from TCGA database, the data information of potential target genes were screened, and the differentially expressed target genes were analyzed.The key target genes were screened by univariate-multivariate COX regression analysis.Molecular docking software was used to conduct molecular docking between ART and key target genes.Differential expression and survival analysis of key target genes were performed using network database GEPIA2. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was performed by R language. The effects of ART on the proliferation and migration of HCC cells were verified by MTS assay and scratch test. The expression of FABP5 in HCC cells was verified by qPCR and Western blot. Western blot was used to verify the protein changes of PI3K/AKT pathway.
Results :
A total of 282 potential target genes were screened by network pharmacology. Finally,three key target genes were screened out. The survival analysis of FABP5 in HCC was statistically significant(P<0. 01). Molecular docking showed that ART and FABP5 had the highest binding energy. Pathway enrichment analysis showed that FABP5 was mainly enriched in PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Cell experiments verified that ART could inhibit the expression level of FABP5,that ART could regulate the PI3K/AKT pathway,and that ART could inhibit the proliferation and migration of HCC cells.
Conclusion
FABP5 may regulate the PI3K/AKT pathway by inhibiting FABP5 and thus affect HCC cell proliferation and migration,and FABP5may serve as a new target gene for ART therapy of HCC.

Objective:
A prognostic risk model for lung adenocarcinoma patients was established based on the cancer genome atlas(TCGA) database to explore the prognostic performance of autophagy related gene risk model for lung adenocarcinoma patients and its correlation with immune microenvironment.
Methods:
Clinical information and transcriptome data of lung adenocarcinoma patients were downloaded and extracted from TCGA database,and 232 autophagy-related genes were screened from the human autophagy database.cox regression analysis was used to screen out four autophagy genes independently associated with prognosis.The prognostic prediction model of lung adenocarcinoma was constructed by risk score ,and the performance of prediction model was evaluated by ROC curve.The relationship between risk scores and tumor immune microenvironment was explored using ESTIMATE ( estimation of stromal and immune cells in malignant tumour tissues using expression data) and CIBERSORT algo- rithms.
Results:
Thirty differentially expressed autophagy-related genes were identified in lung adenocarcinoma, of which four autophagy genes (BIRC5,ERO1A,ITGB4,NLRC4 ) could predict the prognosis of the patients. Grouped by risk score,the Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that the survival rate of high-risk group was signifi- cantly lower than that of low-risk group(P<0. 000 1) .The ROC curve proved the accuracy of the model in predic- ting the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma ( AUC = 0. 757 ) .The ESTIMATE and CIBERSORT analyses revealed that the risk scoring model was associated with multiple immune cells and immune infiltrates in the tumor microenvi- ronment.
Conclusion
Compared with clinical data,the autophagy gene prognostic risk model can better predict the prognosis of patients with lung adenocarcinoma.In the high-risk group,CD4 + memory quiescent cells can im- prove prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma patients.

Objective:
To construct nomogram to predict the risk of bone metastasis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).
Methods:
The clinical data of NSCLC patients diagnosed in the hospital were retrospectively analyzed, including the occurrence of bone metastasis, age, gender, pathological type, smoking status, PS score, TN stage, metastasis of other sites before bone metastasis, carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA) level, alpha fetoprotein(AFP) level, serum calcium(Ca2+), serum phosphorus(P), alkaline phosphatase(ALP) level, which were determined by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC) and decision curve analysis were used, DCA was used to verify the accuracy and clinical benefit of the model, and nomogram was used to visualize the model.
Results:
Area under the ROC curve(AUC) showed that in the modeling group(n=138) and the validation group(n=92), the AUC value predicted by combined indicators(age, gender, pathological type, CEA, ALP)(modeling group=0.792, validation group=0.629) was higher than that predicted by single indicator.
Conclusion
The prediction model constructed in this study has good effect and can provide reference for clinical screening of high-risk patients with bone metastasis of NSCLC.

Chinese Journal of Lung Cancer 2021;24(9):646-652
Phosphorylation is the most common and important post-translational modification of proteins, which plays an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, development and metabolism, and is closely related to the tumorigenesis and metastasis of cancer. Protein kinases and phosphatases generally regulate protein phosphorylation levels as a pair of opposite acting enzymes. Protein phosphorylation in eukaryotes occurs mainly in serine, threonine, and tyrosine residues, and their roles in tumorigenesis and development have been extensively studied. But the roles on histidine phosphorylation is less known due to the immature mass spectrometry and enrichment techniques. In recent years, with the rapid development of related technologies and the discovery of new histidine phosphatases, researchers have paid more attention to the roles of histidine phosphorylation in tumors. Therefore, we aim to review the roles of histidine kinases and phosphatases in tumor.
