Objective:To investigate whether systemic immune inflammation index(SII)-C-reactive protein/albumin(CRP/Alb)can predict postoperative survival in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)patients.Methods:A total of 262 patients with NSCLC who underwent surgery in Hebei Provincial People's Hospital from January 2017 to November 2020 were included.SII and CRP/Alb expressions in patients after surgery were analyzed by K-M survival curve analysis,Cox multivariate risk regression analysis and ROC curve analysis.Results:Patients with high SII expression(>961.78)and high CRP/Alb expression(>0.025)had worse outcomes than patients with low SII and CRP/Alb expressions,respectively(P<0.001).SII-CRP/Alb score(P=0.032),age≥60 years(P=0.038)and T stage T2～T3(P<0.001)were significantly associated with shorter overall survival.AUC of SII-CRP/Alb scores were larger than SII and CRP/Alb scores,respectively.Conclusion:SII-CRP/Alb score can effectively evaluate postoperative survival status of patients with NSCLC,and SII-CRP/Alb score are independent predictors of postoperative overall survival in NSCLC patients.

Objective To investigate the effects of gypenoside(Gyp)on proliferation,migration and invasion of hu-man prostate cancer cell line PC-3.Methods PC-3 cells were treated with 200-1 200 μg/mL Gyp to determine the optimal concentration.PC-3 cells were divided into control,Gyp-L group(400 μg/mL),Gyp-M group(600 μg/mL)and Gyp-H group(800 μg/mL),and Gyp-H+8-bromo-cAMP group(100 μmol/L PKA activator).Colony formation assay was applied to detect cell proliferation.Apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry.Scratch experiment was applied to detect the migration ability.Transwell assay was applied to detect the invasive ability.ELISA experiment was applied to detect cAMP level in each group.Western blot was applied to detect the expres-sion of E-cadherin,N-cadherin,Snail,PKA and CREB proteins.Results Gyp inhibited PC-3 proliferation in a concentration dependent manner.Gyp concentration of 400,600 and 800 μg/mL was selected for subsequent experiments.Compared with the control group,colony formation,number of invasive cells,scratch healing rate,the levels of Snail,N-cadherin,PKA,cAMP,and CREB proteins in the Gyp-L,Gyp-M,and Gyp-H groups were significantly reduced(P＜0.05),but the apoptosis rate as well as the level of E-cadherin protein were significantly increased(P＜0.05).PKA activator attenuated the inhibitory effect of Gyp on the malignant behavior of prostate cancer cells.Conclusions Gyp inhibits proliferation,migration and invasion,and promotes apoptosis in prostate cancer cell line PC-3.

Objective To measure the air-absorbed dose rate of gamma radiation in public areas for the situation of the local radiation environment. Methods Using a large-volume γ spectrometer system with a NaI(Tl) detector mounted on a UAV, we conducted large-scale airborne radiation monitoring in public areas in southwestern China, to measure the air-absorbed dose rate at a height of 1 m from the earth’s surface. Results The airborne radiation monitoring data were used to analyze the local radiation environment. The mean air-absorbed dose rate at a height of 1 m was 43.6 ± 12.9 nGy/h. Seven abnormal radiation points were detected, and two of them were located where construction was ongoing. At one of the abnormal radiation points, FH40G meter measurements showed that the air-absorbed dose rate at a height of 1 m was up to 22.0 μGy/h. Field soil samples were collected for HPGe γ spectrometer analysis: the ²³²Th radionuclide activity concentration was 96.0 kBq/kg, and the ²²⁶Ra radionuclide activity concentration was 9.9 kBq/kg. Conclusion Using the UAV-mounted large-volume γ spectrometer system with NaI(Tl) detectors for large-scale airborne monitoring is a fast and effective method for dragnet monitoring of the level of radiation in public areas.

Maxillary sinus floor lifting surgery is a commonly used surgical method in the field of oral implantology to solve the problem of insufficient vertical bone in the posterior maxillary area.It includes internal and external maxillary sinus lifting.Platelet-rich fibrin(PRF),as a second-generation platelet concentrate,has certain osteoinductive properties and can promote the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells.In maxillary sinus floor lifting surgery,PRF is often mixed with bone grafting materials or used alone,which has great application prospects.Based on current research,the molecular mechanism of PRF promoting osteogenic differen-tiation of maxillary sinus mucoperiosteal has not been reported in detail,and the application of PRF in maxillary sinus floor lifting surgery is still controversial.This article reviewed the mechanism of PRF in promoting osteogenic differentiation of maxillary sinus mucoperiosteal after maxillary sinus floor lifting surgery,as well as the different application methods of PRF in maxillary sinus floor lifting surgery based on relevant literature,in order to provide a reference for clinicians to rationally use PRF in maxillary sinus floor lifting surgery and furtherly promote the clinical application of PRF.

Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma(IVLBCL)is an aggressive extranodal large B-cell lymphoma,cocurrence in the same organ with other malignancies is very rare,especially in the lung.Here,we report a rare case of lung adenocarcinoma with IVLBCL.The patient was admitted to the hospital due to diarrhea associated with fever and cough.A computed tomography(CT)scan of the chest showed an irregular patchy high-density shadow in the upper lobe of the right lung with ground-glass opacity at the margin.After admission,the patient was given anti-infection treatment,but still had inter-mittent low fever(up to 37.5 oC).The pathological diagnosis of percutaneous lung biopsy(PLB)was lepidic-predominant ad-enocarcinoma with local infiltration,which was proved to be invasive nonmucinous adenocarcinoma of the lung with IVLBCL after surgery.This paper analyzed the clinicopathological characteristics and reviewed the relevant literature to improve the knowledge of clinicians and pathologists and avoid missed diagnosis or misdiagnosis.

With the research progress on the biology and pathogenesis of cancer, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have come into being, bringing a new hope for the survival of patients with advanced cancer and opening a new era of cancer immunotherapy. However, with the wide application of immunotherapy in clinical practice, ICI-related adverse events (irAEs) have gradually emerged and are widely known by first-line clinicians. ICIs primarily activate T cells that can attack normal tissues and organs in the body and cause a variety of adverse reactions. Checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (CIP) is one of the rare complications with poor prognosis in irAEs. This article reviews the therapeutic mechanism of some ICIs; the incidence, risk factors, pathogenesis, and clinical and imaging manifestations of CIP; and the classification and treatment management of CIP.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy at 1-year follow-up of the use of drug-coated balloon (DCB) for the treatment of femoropopliteal in-stent restenosis (ISR).Methods:This study enrolled 252 patients undergoing Orchid DCB angioplasty for peripheral arterial disease in the femoral-popliteal segment. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Forty-nine patients were eligible, including 29 (59.2%) chronic total occlusions belonging to TransAtlantic Inter-Society Consensus-Ⅱ(TASC Ⅱ) D, 7 (14.3%) thrombosis, and 14 (28.6%) moderate to severe calcifications. The mean lesion length was (215.9±97.1) mm. 69.4% were of occlusive lesions (Tosaka Ⅲ category). Only 1 provisional stent was implanted. 98% patients had severe claudication or even worse. Of these cases, 34 (73.9%) showed improvements in Rutherford category, while 11 (23.9%) did not change and 1 (2.2%) case deteriorated. The average value of ABI was 0.478±0.264 before surgery and 0.907±0.207 at the end of follow-up. The improvement in Rutherford category ( P<0.01) and ABI ( P<0.005) were both significant. The primary patency (PP) was 80.4%, and the freedom from clinically driven TLR was 84.8% at 1 year. During the follow-up period, there was no all-cause death and major limb amputation. Conclusion:This multicenter study demonstrated the effectiveness of DCB as a treatment for complicated and extensive ISR lesions within 12 months.
