Objective:To investigate the impact of neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy on the safety and efficacy of radical resection in patients with cT3-4NxM0 gastric cancer.Methods:A retrospective cohort study method was used. The clinicopathological data of 515 patients who underwent radical gastrectomy after neoadjuvant treatment at Second Department of Gastric Surgery,Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center and Department of Gastric Surgery,Zhangzhou Hospital Affiliated to Fujian Medical University from January 2020 to June 2023 were collected. Among them,379 patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone(chemotherapy group),and 136 patients received neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy(immunotherapy group). There were 382 males and 133 females,with an age of (58.4±10.9)years(range:26 to 85 years). To reduce the influence of potential confounding factors,a 1∶1 propensity score matching method was adopted,and the clamp value was 0.02. The peri-operative safety,imaging and postoperative pathological tumor regression,and prognosis were compared by independent sample t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ 2 test or Fisher exact probability method between the two groups. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curves, and the differences between groups were compared by Log-rank test. Results:After matching, there were 101 patients in each of the chemotherapy group and the immunotherapy group. The baseline data of the patients in the two groups were evenly distributed (all P>0.05). According to the RECIST 1.1 criteria, the complete response rate (11.9% (12/101) vs. 4.0% (4/101)), partial response rate(68.3%(69/101) vs. 53.4%(54/101)), stable disease rate (17.8%(18/101) vs. 39.6%(40/101)) and disease progression rate (2.0%(2/101) vs. 3.0%(3/101)) between the immunotherapy group and the chemotherapy group were no statistical defferences ( χ2=14.374, P=0.002), and objective response rate (80.2%(81/101) vs. 57.4%(58/101), χ2=12.203, P<0.01) in the immunotherapy group was higher than that in the chemotherapy group. The results of postoperative pathological examination showed that the immunotherapy group had a higher complete response rate (16.8%(17/101) vs. 6.9% (7/101), χ2=4.728, P=0.030) and major pathological response rate (42.6%(43/101) vs. 23.8% (24/101), χ2=8.062, P=0.005). For the two groups, the operation time (175.0(76.0)minutes vs. 160.0 (30.0)minutes, Z=-0.059, P=0.953), intraoperative blood loss (110.0 (150.0)ml vs. 100.0 (120.0)ml, Z=-0.370, P=0.712), overall incidence of postoperative complications (20.8%(21/101) vs. 18.8%(19/101), χ2=0.125, P=0.724) and incidence of severe complications (5.0%(5/101) vs. 3.0%(3/101), χ2=0.130, P=0.718) were comparable. The median follow-up time of all patients was 46 months(range: 19 to 61 months). The 3-year overall survival rate (63.2% vs. 54.4%, P=0.035) and progression-free survival rate (59.1% vs. 45.6%, P=0.022) of the immunotherapy group were higher than those of the chemotherapy group. Meanwhile, there were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of neoadjuvant-treatment-related adverse events (48.5%(49/101) vs. 40.6% (41/101), χ2=1.283, P=0.411) and the incidence of severe adverse reactions of grade 3 or above (13.9% (14/101) vs. 10.9% (11/101), χ2=0.257, P=0.522) between the two groups. Conclusion:Neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy can significantly improve the imaging and postoperative pathological tumor response rates and 3-year survival rate of patients with locally advanced gastric cancer,without increasing the incidence of postoperative complications and neoadjuvant treatment-related adverse event.

Objective: This study is to investigate the effectiveness of philtrum repairment for-microform cleft lip, using muscle tension line group reconstruction. Methods: This is a retrospective study of 19 consecutively primary microform cleft lip repairment patients, from January 2015 to December 2017. All the patients were provided muscle tension line reconstruction (group 1) or traditional muscle repairment by horizontal mattress sutures (group 2). The philtral ridge and dimple were evaluated by scores. The statistical analyses were performed using unpaired t-test by Prism 6.0 software. Results: The philtral ridge score was higher in group 1 than group 2 (4.15±0.56 vs. 2.73±0.32, P<0.01). The philtral dimple score of group 1 increased either, when compared with group 2 (2.36±0.50 vs.1.45±0.28, P=0.0004). Conclusions Functional reconstruction of philtrum, using muscle tension line group repair, has satisfactory results in philtral ridge and philtral dimple.

Objective: In clinical, cephalic index is the most common method to evaluate scaphocephaly. However, cephalic index alone is not sufficient to describe the nuances of skull shape. The authors hypothesize that the location of euryon could be a valuable and practical index as the supplement of cephalic index to better describe the skull. Methods: This is a retrospective study. CT scans of 17 scaphocephaly patients and 17 normal controls were included. Eight of 17 scaphocephaly patients have 6 months postoperative CT scan. The preoperative location of euryon of scaphocephaly patients was compared to that of the controls and postoperative. The horizontal location of euryon was defined as the ratio of the distance, from the most prominent point of forehead to euryon, to anteroposterior cranial length. The vertical location of euryon was defined as the ratio of the vertical distance, from the nasion to euryon, to cranial height. Results: Both the horizontal and vertical locations of euryon of preoperative scaphocephaly patients were significantly decreased compared to normals (46.50%±4.02% vs. 50.39%±2.21%, t=3.49, P=0.0014; 35.78%±8.62% vs. 52.6%±8.08%, t=5.86, P<0.001). Both the postoperative horizontal vertical locations of euryon were significantly increased, when compared to preoperative (47.25%±4.23% vs. 44.02%±3.72%, t=2.42, P=0.045; 42.39%±9.06% vs. 35.18%±5.36%, t=2.554, P=0.0379). Conclusions The location of euryon could be a practical and valuable index to describe the nuances of skull shape.

Objective: To assess the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in SLCO1B3 gene with prognosis of breast cancer (BC) patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy of TA regimen (taxane and antharcycline drugs). Methods: 439 female BC patients were recruited and treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy of TA regimen. A blood sample (2 ml) of peripheral blood was collected from each patient before chemotherapy. Tagging SNPs (tag-SNPs) were selected. We investigated the association of tag-SNPs with prognosis, by Sequenom Mass ARRAY system platform, characterizing tag-SNPs. The hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for progression or death were calculated by multivariable-adjusted Cox regression model. Results: Seven tag-SNPs (rs11045689, rs200104106, rs3764006, rs3834935, rs4149117, rs7305323 and rs73241801) were selected for study. Compared with individuals carrying the rs11045689 GG genotype, individuals carrying rs11045689 AA genotype performed worse PFS and OS, with the HR (95% CI) for progression being 1.39 (1.11~1.75) and the HR (95% CI) for death being 1.38 (1.04~1.83). Compared with individuals carrying the rs73241801 CC genotype, individuals carrying rs73241801 TT genotype performed better OS (P=0.041), with the HR (95% CI) for death being 0.65 (0.44~0.94). The number of risk allele was significantly associated with PFS (P=0.012) and OS (P=0.017) of BC patients by accumulation analysis. Compared with individuals carrying one or less than one risk allele, individuals carrying four risk alleles performed worse PFS and OS, with the HR (95% CI) for progression being 1.37 (1.09~1.72) and the HR (95% CI) for death being 1.36 (1.02~1.81). Conclusion The variations of rs11045689 and rs73241801 in SLCO1B3 gene were significantly associated with prognosis of BC patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy of TA regimen, which might serve as biomarkers for predicting prognosis of BC patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
