Objective To explore the roles of transfer RNA-derived small RNAs(tsRNAs)in the oncogenesis and progression of lung adenocarcinoma by analyzing the differential expression of tsRNAs in lung adenocarcinoma and the relationship between the expression levels of tsRNAs in lung adenocarcinoma and the prognosis of patients in order to further screen and validate the tsRNAs associated with lung adenocarcinoma.Methods The differential expression of tsRNAs between lung adenocarcinoma tissues and normal tissues was analyzed based on the database of the Computational Medicine Center.The effects of tsRNAs expression levels on the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma patients were analyzed based on the Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)database(TCGA-LUAD).The target genes were predicted based on TRFtarget2.0 and tRFTar databases.Gene ontology(GO)enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway analysis were performed based on DAVID and KOBA KEGG online websites.The expression levels of target genes in lung adenocarcinoma tissues and normal tissues were analyzed based on the University of ALabama at Birmingham CANcer data analysis Portal(UALCAN)database.In vitro cell proliferation,migration,and invasion assays were performed to investigate the biological functions of tRF-19-69M8LOJX in lung adenocarcinoma cells.Results Compared with the normal tissues,tRF-19-69M8LOJX was up-regulated in lung adenocarcinoma tissues(log2FC=4.28,FDR＜0.05).High expression level of tRF-19-69M8LOJX was associated with shorter progression-free survival(HR=1.565,95％CI=1.142-2.145,P=0.005).And its overexpression promoted cell proliferation and migration(P＜0.001),and invasion(P=0.009)of A549 cells,and up-regulated COL1A1(P=0.002)and VCAN(P=0.022)significantly in the tRF-19-69M8LOJX overexpression cell model.Conclusion tRF-19-69M8LOJX is up-regulated in lung adenocarcinoma tissues.And its high expression is closely associated with poor prognosis.The tsRNA may play an important role in the pathogenesis and development of lung adenocarcinoma.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the clinical characteristics and prognosis of 85 newly diagnosed patients with follicular lymphoma (FL), as well as the prognostic value of comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) in patients with FL aged ≥ 60 years old.Methods:The clinical data and prognosis of 85 newly diagnosed FL patients admitted from August 2011 to June 2022 were collected. The clinical features, laboratory indicators, therapeutic efficacy, survival and prognostic factors of patients were statistically analyzed, and the prognosis of patients was stratified using various geriatric assessment tools.Results:① The patients with FL were mostly middle-aged and older, with a median age of 59 (20-87) years, including 41 patients (48.2%) aged ≥60 years. The ratio of male to female was 1∶1.36. Overall, 77.6% of the patients were diagnosed with Ann Arbor stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ, and 17 cases (20.0%) were accompanied by B symptoms. Bone marrow involvement was the most common (34.1%). ②Overall, 71 patients received immunochemotherapy. The overall response rate was 86.6%, and the complete recovery rate was 47.1% of 68 evaluated patients. Disease progression or relapse in the first 2 years was observed in 23.9% of the patient. Overall, 14.1% of the patients died during follow-up. ③Of the 56 patients receiving R-CHOP-like therapies, the 3-year and 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 85.2% and 72.8%, respectively, and the 3-year and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 95.9% and 88.8%, respectively. The univariate analysis showed that age ≥60 years old ( HR=3.430, 95% CI 1.256-9.371, P=0.016), B symptoms ( HR=5.030, 95% CI 1.903-13.294, P=0.016), Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) <45.25 ( HR=3.478, 95% CI 1.299-9.310, P=0.013), Follicular Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (FLIPI) high-risk ( HR=2.918, 95% CI 1.074-7.928, P=0.036), and PRIMA-prognostic index (PRIMA-PI) high-risk ( HR=2.745, 95% CI 1.057-7.129, P=0.038) significantly predicted PFS. Moreover, age ≥60 years old and B symptoms were independent risk factors for PFS. Progression of disease within 24 months (POD24) significantly predicted OS in the univariate analysis. Conclusions:FL is more common among middle-aged and older women. Age, B symptoms, PNI score, FLIPI high-risk, PRIMA-PI high-risk, and POD24 influenced PFS and OS. The CGA can be used for treatment selection and risk prognostication in older patients with FL.

Polatuzumab vedotin (Pola) is a novel antibody-drug conjugate targeting CD79b, which has been shown to be effective in treating newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) during clinical trials. This study aims to conduct a retrospective analysis of the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment of a patient with refractory secondary central nervous system lymphoma at Beijing Hospital, alongside a review of relevant literature. This study included a 79-year-old female patient who was diagnosed with DLBCL affecting the ilium, sacrum, spinal cord, and nerve roots and had an IPI score of 5 and a high-risk score according to MSKCC. She showed a geriatric comprehensive assessment (IACA) score of 2, which was categorized under the unfit group. Her initial treatment comprised chemo-free therapy and radiotherapy, followed by progression. In the second-line treatment, a Pola-based regimen was applied, and the patient achieved a complete response, suggesting that this regimen may be a therapeutic option for patients with DLBCL involving the central nervous system.

Objective:To investigate the intervention effects and influencing factors of family management intervention on parents' disease management ability, family function of children with coronary artery lesions in Kawasaki disease.Methods:This was a quasi experimental study. Conveniently, 88 parents of children with Kawasaki disease coronary artery lesions from the Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from March 2020 to June 2021 were selected for the study, and they were divided into the control group and the intervention group according to the order of the first consultation with 44 cases in each group. In the control group, conventional care and health education were used, while in the intervention group, a 6-month family management intervention was implemented on the basis of the control group. Family Management Measure (FaMM), Family Assessment Device (FAD) were used to assess the parents' disease management ability, family function before and after the intervention, respectively.Results:A total of 88 study subjects completed the pre-intervention survey in this study, and a total of 79 study subjects were surveyed when they returned to the hospital for review at the end of 6 months of intervention, including 40 in the intervention group and 39 in the control group, with a missed rate of 10.23% (9/88). There was no significant difference in the score of FAD, FaMM, Kawasaki disease knowledge questionnaire before the intervention between the two groups ( P>0.05). The scores of FAD in the intervention group was (21.58 ± 4.60) points, which was lower than that in the control group (24.62 ± 5.28) points, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.73, P <0.05). The scores of FaMM in the intervention group was (46.83 ± 6.02) points, which was higher than that in the control group (42.72 ± 6.09) points, and the differences was statistically significant ( t=-3.01, P <0.05). The age of the child, and whether the child was an only child were the influencing factors of the difference in disease management ability, and the difference in the family function of the parents of the child, respectively (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Family management intervention can improve the disease management ability of the parents of children with coronary artery lesion, improve family function. In the future, targeted interventions can be conducted according to different ages of children, and different family members' composition in order to obtain better intervention effects.

Objective:To explore the relationship between semi-quantitative parameters of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) and long-term prognosis of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and to find prognostic indicators from non-invasive images of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods:Data were collected from January 2011 to January 2012 via a prospective clinical trial with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Clinical information was from 71 patients who completed the treatment plan with long-term follow-ups and UICC 2010 stage Ⅲ, Ⅳ A, Ⅳ B. The patients received three cycles of Taxotere-Platinol-Fluorouracil (TPF) regimen chrono-chemotherapy, followed by two cycles of concurrent paclitaxel chemotherapy with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). DCE-MRI examination was performed before induction chemotherapy to obtain DCE-MRI related semi-quantitative parameters. Correlation analysis was conducted between DCE-MRI related semi-quantitative parameters and short-term efficacy of nasopharyngeal lesions after concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Results:Of all 77 patients, 71 completed treatment and were followed up from 9 to 86 months, with a median follow-up of 77 months, with 80.2% and 67.6% in 3- and 5-year OS, 73.2% and 60.5% in 3- and 5-year PFS, respectively. Evaluation of short-term efficacy of nasopharyngeal lesions after concurrent chemoradiotherapy: the difference in tissue arrival time of contrast agent between complete response (CR) group and partial response (PR) group was statistically significant ( t=0.537, P<0.05). Univariate survival analysis found that OS ( χ2=3.982, P<0.05) and PFS ( χ2=4.019, P<0.05) in the group with short contrast arrival time were significantly higher than those in the group with long contrast arrival time. OS ( χ2=7.593, P<0.05) and PFS ( χ2=5.624, P<0.05) of patients aged over 45 years were significantly lower than those aged less than 45 years. Cox multivariate regression model showed that advanced clinical stage (stage Ⅳ A, Ⅳ B) ( P=0.048) and age≥45 years ( P=0.031) were independent prognostic factors of OS in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Long arrival time of contrast agent ( P=0.018), age≥45 years ( P=0.004), advanced N(2-3) stage ( P=0.032) and enhancement peak<3 000 ( P=0.005) were independent prognostic factors of PFS in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Conclusions:The arrival time of the contrast agent in DCE-MRI may be a reliable prognostic factor for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of exosomes derived from renal cancer cell line ACHN on the proliferation and apoptosis of ACHN cells and explore the mechanism.

METHODSExosomes derived from ACHN cells were separated and purified by ultrafiltration and sucrose gradient centrifugation. The effects of the exosomes on the proliferation and apoptosis of ACHN cells were analyzed with CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry, respectively. The changes of mRNA and protein expressions of cyclin D1, caspase-3 were examined using RT-PCR and Western blotting, and the changes in the protein expression of p-Akt and p-ERK1/2 were detected with Western blotting.

RESULTSExosomes were successfully purified by ultrafiltration and sucrose gradient centrifugation. Compared with the control cells, ACHN cells treated with the exosomes showed enhanced proliferative activity with suppressed cell apoptosis. Exosomes treatment upregulated cyclinD1 mRNA and protein expression, down-regulated caspase-3 protein expression without affecting caspase-3 mRNA expression, and upregulated the expression of p-Akt and p-ERK1/2.

CONCLUSIONExosomes can promote the growth and proliferation and inhibit the apoptosis of renal cancer cell line ACHN. Removal of the exosomes from the microenvironment of renal cancer or inhibition of its function can be new strategies for treatment of renal cancer.

The inhibitory effects of Endostar in combination with radiotherapy in BALB/c nude mice model of human CNE2 nasopharyngeal carcinoma and the mechanism were investigated. In nude mice model of CNE2 nasopharyngeal carcinoma, the inhibitory rate and the sensitizing enhancement ratio (E/O) were calculated according to the tumor volumes in different groups. The expression of microvascular density (MVD) in tumor tissues was examined by using immunohistochemistry staining. The transcription of VEGF gene was detected by using RT-PCR. The inhibitory rate in Endostar+ radiotherapy group was higher than in other groups. In Endostar+radiotherapy group, the tumor volume was significantly decreased and the E/O ratio was 2.335, suggesting that Endostar could be a radiosensitizer. The expression of MVD of tumor tissues in Endostar+radiotherapy group was reduced significantly. The expression of the MVD in treatment groups was significantly different from that in control group (P<0.05). Compared to other groups, VEGF mRNA expression in Endostar+radiotherapy group was decreased remarkably. Endostar in combination with radiotherapy significantly inhibited the growth of CNE2 tumor. The combination therapy decreased the expression of VEGF, and inhibited tumor angiogenesis and proliferation. When combined with radiotherapy, Endostar acted as a radiosensitizer.
