OBJECTIVE To analysis the clinical and pathological characteristics of lymph nodes metastasis in pediatric patients with differentied thyroid carcinoma(pDTC),and to develop a nomogram for predicting lymph nodes metastasis in patients with pDTC.METHODS Four cohorts were integrated in this study,including internal training cohort(1419 cases)and validation cohort(609 cases)from the Surveillance,Epidemiology,and End Results(SEER)database of the National Cancer Institute,TCGA-pDTC cohort(20 cases from the Cancer Genome Atlas Program)and YHD-pDTC cohort(39 cases from true world).The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(Lasso)and logistic regression were used to screen factors related to lymph nodes metastasis in the presence and exclusion of T stage in pDTCs based on internal training cohort and construct nomograms.Calibration curve,receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,area under the ROC curve(AUC)and decision curve analysis(DCA)were used to evaluate model performance in the other three cohorts.RESULTS Multivariate logistic regression results showed that pathology[OR(95%CI):0.020(0.010-0.060),P<0.001],M stage[OR(95%CI):29.550(3.190-273.490),P=0.003],and T stage[OR(95%CI):2.210(1.820-2.680),P<0.001]were independent factors affecting lymph nodes metastasis in pDTCs.Through the internal training set,internal validation set,YHD-pDTC cohort and TCGA-pDTC cohort,the AUC values were 0.734(0.709,0.758),0.752(0.716,0.788),0.969(0.920,1),and 0.600(0.342,0.858)in that order,and the calibration curves are close to the perfect reference line.T stage is a better predictor of lymph nodes metastasis than extraperitoneal intrusion and tumor size.CONCLUSION Pathology,M stage,and T stage are risk factors for predicting lymph nodes metastasis in pDTCs.The nomogram established on this basis can make individualized predictions of the probability of lymph nodes metastasis in pDTCs.

Objective:To explore the relationship between general demographic characteristics,inflammatory indicators,nutritional indicators,pathological data and lymph node metastasis in endometrial cancer(EC)pa-tients,and to construct and validate a model for preoperative prediction of lymph node status in endometrial canc-er patients.Methods:The preoperative clinical data of 473 patients with EC who underwent surgical treatment in the Zhu Jiang Hospital of Southern Medical University from January 2010 to April 2024 were retrospectively ana-lyzed.The independent risk factors of lymph node metastasis of endometrial cancer were screened by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses,and the nomogram prediction model was constructed by R soft-ware.The performance of the model was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,calibra-tion curve and clinical decision curve.Results:Menopausal status,high grade biopsy pathology,CA125 ≥24.47U/ml,systemic immune inflammatory index(SII)≥710.91,and prognostic nutritional index(PNI)＜52.90 were in-dependent risk factors for lymph node metastasis in endometrial cancer(OR＞1,P＜0.05).The nomogram model constructed based on these five factors had an AUC of 0.853 in the training set and 0.871 in the test set.The cali-bration curve fitted well,and the clinical decision curve shows a positive benefit.Conclusions:The endometrial cancer lymph node metastasis prediction model constructed based on menopausal status,biopsy pathology,CA125,SII,and PNI has good accuracy and fit,with certain clinical application value.

Drug addiction is a serious public health problem worldwide,for which there are currently no established therapeutic medications.Since the legalization of cannabis and the approval of cannabidiol(CBD)by the US Food and Drug Administration,its therapeutic potential for the treatment of substance abuse has been widely explored.Numerous studies have shown that CBD can reduce drug reward in animal models of addiction such as self-administration,conditioned positional preference,and intracranial self-stimulation.CBD can also reduce withdrawal symptoms from substances such as amphetamines,opioids,cocaine,marijuana,alcohol,and nicotine.The mechanisms by which CBD modulates drug addiction,however,are complex and understudied.Here we review studies of CBD related to addictive drugs to clarify the regulatory mechanisms of CBD in drug addiction and provide references for related studies on substance abuse.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological features and prognostic factors of follicular dendritic cell carcinoma(FDCS).Methods Hospital records of 23 patients diagnosed with FDCS were retrospectively re-viewed.The morphological,immunohistochemical features,including the detection of CD21,CD23,and CD35 using the EnVision method,and in-situ hybridization for Epstein-Barr virus encoded nuclear RNA(EBER)were evaluated.Clinicopathological characteristics were analyzed for the evaluation of prognosis.Results The median age of all 23 pa-tients was 50 years(range:27 to 72)and the female to male ratio was 1.3.The median maximum diameter of tumor was 7.0 cm(range:0.5 to 20.0 cm).One case was located in cervical lymph node,while another 22 were discovered in extranodal sites.20 cases were single organ and 3 cases were multiple organs involvement.Microscopically,tumor cells exhibited spindle,oval,or markedly pleomorphic morphology,accompanied by variable lymphoplasmacytic infil-tration in the stroma.CD21,CD35 and CD23 were positive in 22 of 23(95.6％),23 of 23(100.0％)and 4 of 15(26.7％)patients,respectively.EBER in-situ hybridization was positive in 9 of 23 patients(39.1％).The median follow-up time was 84.0(95％CI:50.7-117.3)months,and the 5-year survival rate was 80.2％(95％CI:62.8-97.6).Twelve(52.2％)patients were alive,5(21.7％)were dead,and 6(26.1％)were lost of follow-up.We es-tablished a pathological scoring system containing 5 indexes,i.e.,tumor maximum diameter,mitotic figures,tumor necrosis,cellular pleomorphism and histologic types.Patients with greater than 4 points had a significant poor progno-sis.Conclusion FDCS features a broad spectrum of histologic appearances and behavior.Combined morphological observations(HE staining),applications of a panel of follicular dendritic cell markers and EBER in-situ hybridization are helpful for accurate diagnosis.FDCS poses risks for recurrence,metastasis and death,and those with greater than 4 points in the scoring system have a significant poor prognosis.Long-term follow up is needed.

Purpose To investigate the expression of fork-head box protein A1(FOXA1)in esophageal squamous cell car-cinoma(ESCC)and its association with clinicopathologic char-acteristics and prognosis.Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to detect FOXA1 protein expression in 532 cases of esopha-geal squamous cell carcinoma.The correlation between FOXA1 protein expression and clinicopathologic features and prognosis of patients was analyzed.Results In 532 cases of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,183 cases overexpressed FOXA1 pro-tein(34.4％).FOXA1 overexpression was associated with ES-CC vascular infiltration(P=0.032),poorly differentiation(P=0.032),and tumor size(P＜0.001).The overall survival(OS)and disease free survival(DFS)of patients with stage Ⅰ+Ⅱ esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with high FOXA1 ex-pression tended to be poor(OS:P=0.094;DFS:P=0.107).In ESCC patients with survival longer than 24 months,the high FOXA1 expression group had significantly shorter OS and DFS(OS:P=0.048;DFS:P=0.047).Multivariate survival anal-ysis showed that the depth of tumor invasion was an independent prognostic factor affecting the prognosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.Conclusion FOXA1 is overexpressed in e-sophageal squamous cell carcinoma,and its high expression is related to tumor size,vascular infiltration and poorly differentia-tion.Patients with high FOXA1 expression tended to have poor prognosis in OS and DFS.When OS and DFS≥24 months,high FOXA1 expression may be used as a reference indicator for poor prognosis in ESCC patients.

Objective: To investigate the correlation between campus bullying and suicidal tendency symptoms comorbidity with addictive behavior among middle and high school students in Hainan Province, so as to provide a theoretical basis for health education and behavioral intervention in schools. Methods: In July 2023, an anonymous questionnaire survey was conducted among 6 654 middle and high school students in Hainan Province, selected by probability proportional sampling and stratified cluster random sampling method. Campus bullying, suicidal tendency and addictive behavior were determined according to the relevant items in the questionnaire on health related behaviors of Chinese students health status and influencing factors questionnaire, and self designed questionnaire. The co occurrence of campus bullying and suicidal tendency among students was analyzed. The binary Logistic regression method was used to analyze the correlation between the co occurrence of campus bullying and suicidal tendency and the addictive behavior of middle school students. Results: The report rate of campus bullying among middle and high school students in Hainan Province was 28.48%, the suicidal tendency was 15.25%, and the co occurrence of campus bullying and suicidal tendency was 8.00%. The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that middle school students and left behind students were prone to campus bullying and suicide tendency ( OR =1.55, 1.52, P <0.05), while Internet addiction, gambling and current smoking showed significant positive correlation with comorbidity of campus bullying and suicide tendency ( OR =3.14, 2.18, 2.07, P < 0.05 ). Conclusions Middle and high school students with addictive behavior have a higher possibility of comorbidity of campus bullying and suicidal tendency. The comprehensive intervention of addictive behavior can reduce the incidence of co occurrence of campus bullying and suicidal tendency, so as to improve health and wellbeing of middle school students.

Objective To explore the expression and clinical significance of Yes-associated protein 1(YAP1)in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.Methods Immunohistochemical method was used to detect YAP1 expression in 439 cases of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.The differences of YAP1 expression and clinical parameters were analyzed between YAP1 positive group and YAP1 negative group.Kaplan-Meier curve was used to analyze the influence of YAP1 expression on survival of patients.Results The positive rate of YAP1 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma was 30.52% .The tumor invasion was deeper in YAP1 positive group(P＜0.001).Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that YAP1 positive patients had longer disease-free survival(DFS)and overall survival(OS)among patients surviving longer than 30 months(P＜0.05).The multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the invasion depth of tumor was an independent factor affecting DFS(HR=1.371,95% CI 0.993-1.894,P=0.035)and OS(HR=1.489,95% CI 1.066-2.080,P=0.020).Conclusions YAP1 has a certain percentage of positive rate in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma;for patients with survival longer than 30 months,YAP1 positive indicates a better prognosis.
