Objective:To analyze the fail mode of neoadjuvant therapy combined with surgery for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) after long-term follow-up.Methods:Clinical data of consecutive 238 patients with locally advanced resectable ESCC who underwent neoadjuvant therapy combined with surgery in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from September 2012 to October 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The failure mode in the whole cohort was analyzed after long-term follow-up. The overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS) rates were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method. Survival differences were determined by log-rank test.Results:The pathological complete response (pCR) rate was 42.0% in 238 patients. After a median follow-up of 46.1 months, tumor progression occurred in 96 patients (40.3%), including 25 patients (10.5%) with local recurrence, 61 patients (25.6%) with distant metastases, and 10 patients (4.2%) with simultaneous local recurrence and distant metastases. The median OS and DFS were 64.7 months and 49.9 months. And the 3-, 5-, and 7-year OS and DFS rates were 70.0%, 52.8%, 36.4% and 63.5%, 42.5%, and 30.0%, respectively. The 3-, 5-, and 7-year locoregional recurrence-free survival rates and distant metastasis-free survival rates were 86.0%, 71.4%, 61.2% and 70.6%, 55.9%, 43.0%. Compared with non-pCR patients, the overall progression rate and distant metastasis rate of pCR patients were lower (26.0% vs. 50.7%, 16.0% vs. 32.6%, both P<0.05). And the 3-, 5-, and 7-year OS (83.0% vs. 60.2%, 69.7% vs. 41.7%, 50.4% vs. 27.7%, all P<0.001) and DFS rates (80.4% vs. 51.4%, 63.9% vs. 31.2%, 45.9% vs. 20.3%, all P<0.001) were significantly better in pCR patients. Conclusions:Distant metastasis is the main failure mode of patients with locally advanced ESCC after neoadjuvant therapy. Patients with postoperative pCR can achieve better long-term survival.

Objective:To analyze the failure patterns and survival after stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in patients with T 1-2N 0M 0 non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). Methods:Clinical data of early-stage NSCLC patients who received SBRT at Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from January 2012 to September 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The primary observed endpoint was the pattern of disease progression, which was divided into intra-field recurrence, regional lymph node recurrence and distant metastasis. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Univariate analysis was conducted by log-rank test, and multivariate analysis was performed by Cox's model.Results:A total of 147 patients with 156 lesions were included. The median follow-up time was 44.0 months (16.5-95.5 months). A total of 57 patients (38.8%) progressed: 14 patients (24.5%) had recurrence with the 1-, 3-, and 5-year local recurrence rates of 2.0%, 10.9%, and 14.3%, respectively; 36 patients (63.2%) had Distant metastasis with the 1-, 3- and 5-year distant metastasis rates of 12.2%, 22.4% and 28.6%, respectively; and 7 patients (12.3%) had recurrence complicated with distant metastasis. The 3-, 5- and 7-year OS rates were 80.5%, 64.2% and 49.9% for all patients, respectively. The median OS was 78.4 months. The 3-, 5- and 7-year PFS rates were 64.8%,49.5% and 41.5%, with a median PFS of 57.9 months (95% CI: 42.3-73.5 months). Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that biologically equivalent dose and age were the factors affecting the efficacy of SBRT (both P<0.05). Conclusion:Distant metastasis is the main failure pattern in patients with T 1-2N 0M 0 NSCLC after SBRT. High-risk population should be selected for further systematic treatment to improve the efficacy.

OBJECTIVES:
Patients with classical type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) require lifelong dependence on exogenous insulin therapy due to pancreatic beta-cell destruction and absolute insulin deficiency. T1DM accounts for about 90% of children with diabetes in China, with a rapid increase in incidence and a younger-age trend. Epidemiological studies have shown that the overall glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and compliance rate are low in Chinese children with T1DM. Optimal glucose control is the key for diabetes treatment, and maintaining blood glucose within the target range can prevent or delay chronic vascular complications in patients with T1DM. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the glycemic control of children with T1DM from Hunan and Henan Province with flash glucose monitoring system (FGMS), and to explore factors associated with glycemic variability.
METHODS:
A total of 215 children with T1DM under 14 years old were enrolled continuously in 16 hospitals from August 2017 to August 2020. All subjects wore a FGMS device to collect glucose data. Correlation of HbA1c, duration of diabetes, or glucose scan rates with glycemic variability was analyzed. Glucose variability was compared according to the duration of diabetes, HbA1c, glucose scan rates and insulin schema.
RESULTS:
HbA1c and duration of diabetes were positively correlated with mean blood glucose, standard deviation of glucose, mean amplitude of glucose excursions (MAGE), and coefficient of variation (CV) of glucose (all P<0.01). The glucose scan rates during FGMS wearing was significantly positively correlated with time in range (TIR) (P=0.001) and negatively correlated with MAGE and mean duration of hypoglycemia (all P<0.01). Children with duration ≤1 year had lower time below range (TBR) and MAGE when compared with those with duration >1 year (all P<0.05). TIR and TBR in patients with HbA1c ≤7.5% were higher (TIR: 65% vs 45%, TBR: 5% vs 4%, P<0.05), MAGE was lower (7.0 mmol/L vs 9.4 mmol/L, P<0.001) than those in HbA1c >7.5% group. Compared to the multiple daily insulin injections group, TIR was higher (60% vs 52%, P=0.006), MAGE was lower (P=0.006) in the continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion group. HbA1c was lower in the high scan rates (≥14 times/d) group (7.4% vs 8.0%, P=0.046), TIR was significantly higher (58% vs 47%, P<0.001), and MAGE was lower (P<0.001) than those in the low scan rate (<14 times/d) group.
CONCLUSIONS
The overall glycemic control of T1DM patients under 14 years old in Hunan and Henan Province is under a high risk of hypoglycemia and great glycemic variability. Shorter duration of diabetes, targeted HbA1c, higher glucose scan rates, and CSII are associated with less glycemic variability.

Objective:To investigate the level of rumination and its influential factors among Chinese psychiatry nurses who go through work place violence.Methods:In this study, 150 psychiatry nurses were recruited from Affiliated Brain Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University (specialize in psychiatry), via the combination of convenient sampling and snowball sampling. Chinese Event-related Rumination Inventory (C-ERRI) was applied in the survey.Results:The total score of C-ERRI was (22.11±9.62) points, and the scores of intrusive rumination subscale and deliberate rumination subscale were (12.99±5.58) and (9.12±6.01) points, respectively. Multiple Linear Regression Analysis show that assault frequency in recent year ( B=-3.195, P<0.01) and whether got injury in the recent assault ( B=8.591, P<0.01) were predictors of deliberate rumination, which account for 26.8% variance of the equation. Gender (male) ( B=-2.415, P<0.01), Injury frequency in recent year ( B=2.864, P<0.01) and whether got injury in the recent assault ( B=8.949, P<0.01) were predictors of intrusive rumination. They account for 36.0% variance of the equation. Conclusion:In this study, the level of rumination among Chinese psychiatry nurses was low. Their rumination style was deliberate rumination.

Near-infrared spectroscopy is a device used to determine whether traumatic intracranial hemorrhage has occurred and is primarily used for screening in emergency situations. In this study we examined the applicability of this equipment in postmortem inspection. This study included 124 autopsy cases and 59 postmortem inspection cases performed in the National Forensic Service from July 2017 to October 2018. We carried out the test using Infrascanner Model 2000 (Infrascan Inc.). Autopsy cases were divided into four groups (epidural hemorrhage or subdural hemorrhage group, traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage or cerebral contusion group, nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage group, and control group) and analyzed. There was no difference in the test results according to the presence and type of intracranial hemorrhage. The possibility that variables related to postmortem change affected the test results was considered. In conclusion, this study confirmed that near-infrared spectroscopy is not suitable for the detection of traumatic intracranial hemorrhage in postmortem inspection.

The expression of histone lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) in colorectal cancer cells is increased, and LSD1 is closely related to its occurrence, development, proliferation, invasion and metastasis. LSD1 is a demethylase whose function depends on flavin adenine dinucleoside. It can specifically catalyze the demethylation reaction of histone lysine, and regulate the expression of target genes by reaction of demethyl and dimethyl (H3K4me, H3K4me2, H3K9me, and H3K9me2) at the 4th and 9th positions of lysine H3. Targeted inhibition of LSD1 has been proved to be able to exert significant anti-tumor effect, but since the tumors involve multiple centers and factors, later studies have found that single inhibition of LSD1 cannot completely and effectively kill tumor cells. Moreover, the specificity of the LSD1 catalytic substrate depends to a large extent on the synergistic factors that bind to it and form complexes. The double-target inhibitors based on LSD1 shows more remarkable effect in tumor inhibition. Therefore, finding the combined synergistic factors of LSD1 may provide the basis for the research of multi-target inhibitors.

Objective To survey the current situation and explore the association between empathic ability and job adjustment disorder of pediatric nurses. Methods The Jefferson scale of empathy health professionals and job adjustment disorder scale were used for the survey among 189 pediatric nurses. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the association between empathic ability and job adjustment disorder of pediatric nurses. Results The total score of empathic ability of pediatric nurses was (76.32 ±5.03), the score of their job adjustment disorder was (23.69 ±6.03). Their empathic ability and its dimensions were significantly negatively related with job adjustment disorder (P <0.01). Conclusions The empathic ability of pediatric nurses was at a medium to low level, job adjustment disorder was at a medium to high level. The higher level of pediatric nurses' empathic ability, the lower level of job adjustment disorder is. Hospital staff should take measures to improve pediatric nurses' empathic ability, and the pediatric nurses themselves should also actively cultivate their own perception, and improve the empathic ability so as to better acclimatize themselves to pediatric nursing job and reduce the degree of job adjustment disorder.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of Lingshao-Zaoren granule in the treatment of female overactive bladder. Methods A total of 60 female OAB patients who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into 2 groups, 30 cases in each group. The control group recieved the Tolterodine Tartrate Sustained Release Tablets and the Lingshao-Zaoren granule placebo, and the treatment group used the Tolterodine Tartrate Sustained Release Tablets and the true Lingshao-Zaoren granule treatment. Both groups were treated for 4 weeks. Overactive bladder symptom scale (OABSS) was used to determine the severity of OAB.Results After treatment 14,28 d,OABSS scores of the treatment group(5.3 ± 2.3,1.4 ± 1.2 vs.8.4 ± 2.4,F=137.209),and control group(7.8 ± 1.9,6.8 ± 1.4 vs.8.6 ± 2.6,F=8.927),were significantly lower than the baseline of each group respectively (P<0.01). Besides, OABSS scores of the treatment group after 14 and 28 d were significantly lower than the control group (t=4.668, 15.678, P<0.01). The pain scores (5.9 ± 1.9, 2.7 ± 1.1 vs.9.5 ±2.3,F=108.819)of treatment group at 14 and 28 d were significantly lower than the baseline(P<0.01);and the pain scores of treatment group at 14 and 28 d were significantly lower than the control group (t=6.342, 14.812,P<0.01).The lower abdomen discomfort scores at 14,28 d in treatment group(1.9 ± 1.4,1.1 ± 1.0 vs. 3.3 ±1.1,F=28.762),and control group(2.7 ±1.0,2.4 ±0.8 vs.3.4 ±1.2,F=12.103)were significantly lower than the baseline of each group (P<0.01); and the abdominal discomfort scores of treatment group at 14, 28 d were significantly lower than the control group (t=2.521, 5.041, P<0.05 or P<0.01).
