Objective:To construct a nomogram based on preoperative MRI imaging features for the prediction of muscle-invasive upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma（UTUC）and evaluate its performance.Methods:This retrospective cohort study analyzed the clinical data of 99 UTUC patients treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from April 2018 to May 2024. Among them，69（69.7%）were male and 30（30.3%）were female，with a median age of 67.0 years. All patients underwent preoperative MRI and radical nephroureterectomy. According to postoperative pathology，tumors staged ≥ T 2 were assigned to the muscle-invasive group，and those staged ≤ T 1 were assigned to the non-muscle-invasive group. Baseline data，pathological information，and imaging characteristics were collected and compared between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors for muscle-invasive UTUC，and a nomogram was constructed. The diagnostic performance of the model was assessed using receiver operating characteristic（ROC）curves，calibration curves，and decision curve analysis（DCA）. Results:Among the 99 patients，70（70.7%）were diagnosed with muscle-invasive UTUC，and 29（29.3%）with non-muscle-invasive UTUC. The muscle-invasive group had significantly larger tumor size［4.5（2.8，7.0）cm vs. 3.0（2.3，4.5）cm， P = 0.029］，a higher incidence of multifocal tumors［37.1%（26/70）vs. 3.5%（1/29）， P < 0.001］，patchy tumors［30.0%（21/70）vs. 6.9%（2/29）， P = 0.019］，spiculated tumor margins［52.9%（37/70）vs. 17.2%（5/29）， P = 0.001］，tumor compression on renal parenchyma or periureteral/peripelvic fat［68.6%（48/70）vs. 10.3%（3/29）， P < 0.001］，high-grade pathology［92.9%（65/70）vs. 75.9%（22/29）， P = 0.043］，lymph node metastasis［28.6%（20/70）vs. 0， P = 0.001］，and lymphovascular invasion［42.9%（30/70）vs. 10.3%（3/29）， P=0.002］. The apparent diffusion coefficient（ADC）values［0.9（0.8，1.1）× 10 -3 mm2/s vs. 1.1（1.0，1.4）× 10 -3 mm2/s， P < 0.001］and normalized ADC（NADC）values［0.8（0.7，1.0）vs. 0.9（0.8，1.1）， P = 0.002］were significantly lower in the muscle-invasive group. Univariate logistic regression identified multifocality，patchy tumor patterns，spiculated tumor margins，tumor compression on renal parenchyma or periureteral/peripelvic fat，and low NADC values as risk factors for muscle-invasive UTUC（all P < 0.05）. Multivariate analysis revealed multifocality（ OR = 17.903，95% CI 1.650 - 194.253， P = 0.018），tumor compression on renal parenchyma or perirenal / ureteral fat（ OR = 14.690，95% CI 3.069 - 70.323， P < 0.001），and low NADC value（ OR = 0.016，95% CI 0.001 - 0.471， P = 0.017）as independent risk factors. A nomogram was constructed based on these factors. The area under the ROC curve（AUC）of the model was 0.898（95% CI 0.838 - 0.957），with an optimal cutoff value of 0.639. The model showed an accuracy of 83.8%，sensitivity of 81.4%，and specificity of 89.7%. Calibration curves indicated good calibration，and DCA showed that the model provided substantial clinical net benefit. Conclusions:This study constructed a nomogram based on preoperative MRI features，including tumor multifocality，compression on renal parenchyma or periureteral/peripelvic fat and NADC value，which demonstrates good predictive performances for muscle-invasive UTUC.

Objective:To analyze the incidence, mortality, survival patterns, and distribution characteristics of modifiable risk factors for colorectal cancer in selected global regions.Methods:Secondary analysis was conducted using data from the GLOBOCAN database and previous literature. We described the number of cases and age-standardized rates (ASRs) of incidence and mortality for colorectal cancer in China, the United States, the United Kingdom, and globally in 2022 and 2020, with gender-stratified analysis. ASRs were calculated using Segi's world standard population. Temporal trends in 5-year net survival rates were compared across three periods (2000-2004, 2005-2009, 2010-2014) among countries. Regional distribution differences in colorectal cancer deaths attributable to modifiable risk factors by gender were assessed in China.Results:In 2022, global colorectal cancer incidence and mortality were estimated at 1.926 million new cases and 904 000 deaths. China accounted for 27% of both global incidence (517 000 cases) and mortality (240 000 deaths). China's age-standardized incidence rate (20.1 per 100 000) was lower than those of the United States (27.0 per 100 000) and the UK (30.9 per 100 000). However, China's mortality rate (8.6 per 100 000) exceeded that of the US (7.9 per 100 000) but was lower than the UK (11.8 per 100 000). Compared to 2020, China demonstrated significant mortality reductions in 2022: males declined from 14.8 to 10.9 per 100 000, females from 9.4 to 6.5 per 100 000. Five-year net survival rates in China improved across periods for colon cancer (51.4%, 55.6%, 57.6%) and rectal cancer (49.5%, 52.5%, 56.9%), yet remained consistently lower than US and UK rates. Modifiable risk factors contributed to 45.1% of male and 41.4% of female colorectal cancer deaths in China, with marked regional disparities.Conclusions:China exhibits higher colorectal cancer incidence and mortality than global averages, with survival gaps persisting compared to developed nations. Regionally tailored comprehensive prevention strategies are essential to reduce disease burden through risk factor modification and optimized clinical management.

Objective To explore the risk factors for recurrent laryngeal nerve(RLN)invasion in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC)based on ultrasound image characteristics,construct a regression equation,and explore its predictive value for providing a reference for the clinical prevention and treatment of RLN invasion in PTC patients.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 1 195 patients who were pathologically diagnosed with PTC in the Affiliated TCM Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University and Nanfang Hospital,Southern Medical University from January 2020 to November 2024.These patients were divided into invasion group(n=28)and non-invasion group(n=1167)according to whether they had RLN invasion or not.The clinical data,pathological data and ultrasound image characteristics were compared between two groups.The risk factors for RLN invasion in PTC patients were identified using multifactorial Logistic regression to construct a regression equation which was then evaluated using the likelihood ratioχ2.Moreover,the Hosmer-Lemeshow test was utilized to assess the goodness of fit,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted to analyze the predictive value of the regression equation for RLN invasion in PTC patients,and the area under the curve(AUC)was calculated.Results The proportions of patients with tumor located in the posterior sagittal position,maximum tumor diameter≥1 cm,capsule contact and lymph node metastasis were higher in invasion group than in non-invasion group(P<0.05).Multifactorial Logistic regression analysis identified tumor located in the posterior sagittal position(OR=1.079,95%CI:1.031-1.129),maximum tumor diameter≥1 cm(OR=2.408,95%CI:1.256-4.617),capsule contact(OR=3.171,95%CI:1.724-5.833),and lymph node metastasis(OR=3.425,95%CI:1.884-6.226)as independent risk factors for RLN invasion in PTC patients(P<0.05).The regression equation was constructed as followed:logit(P)=-8.552+tumor located in the posterior sagittal position×0.076+maximum tumor diameter≥1 cm×0.879+capsule contact×1.154+lymph node metastasis×1.231.The likelihood ratioχ2 evaluation of the regression equation suggested that the regression equation was effectively constructed(P<0.001).Hosmer-Lemeshow test for the goodness of fit of the regression equation showed that the regression equation was well fitted(P>0.05).ROC curve analysis revealed that when logit(P)>0.875,the AUC value was 0.901(95%CI:0.882-0.917),with a sensitivity of 75.00%and a specificity of 88.95%.Conclusion The occurrence of RLN invasion in PTC patients is associated with tumor located in the posterior sagittal position,maximum tumor diameter≥1 cm,capsule contact,and lymph node metastasis,and the regression equations constructed based on these factors can well predict the occurrence of RLN invasion in PTC patients and is expected to provide an effective guidance for clinical practice.

Objective:To determine the total and age-specific cut-off values of total prostate specific antigen (tPSA) and the ratio of free PSA divided total PSA (fPSA/tPSA) for screening prostate cancer in China.Methods:Based on the Chinese Colorectal, Breast, Lung, Liver, and Stomach cancer Screening Trial (C-BLAST) and the Tianjin Common Cancer Case Cohort (TJ4C), males who were not diagnosed with any cancers at baseline since 2017 and received both tPSA and fPSA testes were selected. Based on Cox regression, the overall and age-specific (＜60, 60-＜70, and ≥70 years) accuracy and optimal cut-off values of tPSA and fPSA/tPSA ratio for screening prostate cancer were evaluated with time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curve (tdROC) and area under curve (AUC). Bootstrap resampling was used to internally validate the stability of the optimal cut-off value, and the PLCO study was used to externally validate the accuracy under different cut-off values.Results:A total of 5 180 participants were included in the study, and after a median follow-up of 1.48 years, a total of 332 prostate cancer patients were included. In the total population, the tdAUC of tPSA and fPSA/tPSA screening for prostate cancer were 0.852 and 0.748, respectively, with the optimal cut-off values of 5.08 ng/ml and 0.173, respectively. After age stratification, the age specific cut-off values of tPSA in the <60, 60-<70, and ≥70 age groups were 3.13, 4.82, and 11.54 ng/ml, respectively, while the age-specific cut-off values of fPSA/tPSA were 0.153, 0.135, and 0.130, respectively. Under the age-specific cut-off values, the sensitivities of tPSA screening for prostate cancer in males <60, 60-70, and ≥70 years old were 92.3%, 82.0%, and 77.6%, respectively, while the specificities were 84.7%, 81.3%, and 75.4%, respectively. The age-specific sensitivities of fPSA/tPSA for screening prostate cancer were 74.4%, 53.3%, and 55.9%, respectively, while the specificities were 83.8%, 83.7%, and 83.7%, respectively. Both bootstrap's internal validation and PLCO external validation provided similar results. The combination of tPSA and fPSA/tPSA could further improve the accuracy of screening.Conclusion:To improve the screening effects, it is recommended that age-specific cut-off values of tPSA and fPSA/tPSA should be used to screen for prostate cancer in the general risk population.

Objective:To provide supports for the cancer prevention and control strategies in China by comparing the disease burden, epidemic trends, 5-year relative survival rate and major determinants of common cancers between China and the United States.Methods:A descriptive secondary analysis was conducted using data extracted from the GLOBOCAN database, the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database, Global Burden of disease 2019 database, and previous studies. The main indicators included the cases of malignant tumors in different sites, the cases of deaths, the age-standardized incidence (world standard incidence) and mortality (world standard mortality), the 5-year relative survival rate, and population attributable fraction (PAF).Results:In 2022, an estimated 4.825 million new cases and 2.574 million deaths of malignant neoplasms in China. The world standard incidence rate (201.6/100 000) in China was lower than that in the United States (367.0/100 000), and the world standard mortality rate (96.5/100 000) was higher than that in the United States (82.3/100 000). Lung cancer ranked first in the disease burden of malignant tumors in China, the new cases and deaths accounted for 22.0% and 28.5% of all malignant tumors, respectively. The top three malignant tumors in China were breast cancer (11.5%), prostate cancer (9.7%) and lung cancer (9.5%), which were also among the top five causes of death. However, the second to fifth leading causes of death from malignant tumors in China were digestive system tumors (liver cancer 12.3%, stomach cancer 10.1%, colorectal cancer 9.3%, and esophageal cancer 7.3%). From 2000 to 2018, the world standard incidence of malignant tumors showed an increasing trend and the world standard mortality of malignant tumors showed a decreasing trend in China, while the world standard incidence and mortality of malignant tumors in the United States showed a significant decreasing trend after 2000. The incidence of breast cancer, colorectal cancer and thyroid cancer increased rapidly in China, while the incidence and mortality of stomach cancer, liver cancer and esophageal cancer decreased, but they still had a heavy disease burden. From 2003 to 2015, the overall 5-year relative survival rate of malignant tumors increased from 30.9% to 40.5% in China. However, with the exception of esophageal cancer, the 5-year relative survival rates of other major malignant tumors were lower than those in the United States. In 2019, the PAF of malignant tumors death attributable to potential modifiable risk factors was 48.3% in China, which was similar to the United States (49.8%). Of these, smoking was the most important attributable risk factor, and the PAF was more than 30% both in China and the United States. In addition, about 18.8% of malignant tumors were caused by preventable chronic infections, such as hepatitis B virus and Helicobacter pylori, while less than 4% of malignant tumors in the United States were caused by infection.Conclusions:China has made great progress in the prevention and treatment of malignant tumors, but it still faces a serious disease burden. The cancer spectrum is changing from developing countries to developed countries. We should pay attention to modifiable factors, take comprehensive measures, and prevent cancer scientifically.
