Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of oral pyrotinib in treatment of patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer in the real world, and to explore its influencing factors.Methods:The clinical data of 148 patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer treated with oral pyrrolitinib in Shanxi Cancer Hospital from September 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The efficacy was evaluated according to the efficacy evaluation criteria for solid tumors, version 1.1, and the adverse effects were graded according to the National Cancer Institute common terminology criteria of adverse effects, version 4.0. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw progression-free survival (PFS) curves, the patients were stratified by different clinical characteristics, and log-rank test was used for univariate analysis of PFS; the multivariate analysis of PFS was performed using Cox proportional hazards model.Results:The objective response rate (ORR) of 148 patients was 71.6% (106/148), and the disease control rate (DCR) was 89.2% (132/148). The overall median PFS time was 11.0 months (95% CI 10.1-11.9 months), and the median PFS of 19 patients with brain metastases was 10.0 months (95% CI 7.4-12.6 months). The differences in PFS between patients stratified by disease-free interval (DFI), the number of metastatic site and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score were statistically significant (all P < 0.05), but the difference in PFS between patients with negative and positive hormone receptor was not statistically significant ( P > 0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that DFI (>1 year vs. ≤1 year: HR = 5.254, 95% CI 0.728-37.933, P = 0.046) and ECOG score (≥2 points vs. 0-1 point: HR = 2.454, 95% CI 1.261-4.788, P = 0.008) were independent influencing factors of PFS. The most common ≥grade 3 adverse effects were diarrhea (31 cases, 20.9%) and hand-foot syndrome (38 cases, 25.8%). Conclusions:The pyrotinib has definite efficacy and good safety in the treatment of HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer in the real world, especially for patients with DFI > 1 year and ECOG score 0-1 point, the efficacy and safety are particularly good.

Objective:To recognize the overall situation of the core competency of medical professional postgraduate, analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the training process, and provide basis for better optimization and revision of training objectives and training plans.Methods:An anonymous online questionnaire was conducted among 264 postgraduates majoring in clinical medicine to recognize the cognition and self-evaluation of core competence, and analyze the differences in scores of different grades and types. SPSS 23.0 was used for independent-samples t test; and one-way analysis of variance to analyze categorical variables. Results:The doctoral degree students' core competency results were higher than those of master degree students, and those of the senior students were higher than junior students ( P<0.05). "System Improvement Ability" [master degree students (2.94±1.07), first-year students (2.82±0.97)], "Patient Management" [(first-year students (2.77±1.22)], "Academic Research" [first-year students (2.90±1.03)], and 4 other indicators were the weakness of students (all less than 3 scores). Conclusion:The students have a good sense of professional identity for doctors. The different depth of the clinical practice education is the possible cause which brings about the differences among students with different degrees. We should focus on strengthening the training for the "shortcomings" in the core competence of students.

Objective : To investigate the expression characteristics of mu opioid receptor ( MOR) in rat colon smooth muscle cells by cultured rat primary colonic smooth muscle cells . Methods : colonic smooth muscle cells were isolated , cultured and identified ; immunofluorescence double labeling method was used to observe the distribution characteristics of MOR , Endomorphin⁃2 (EM2) , and calmodulin (CaM) in colonic smooth muscle cells ; Western Blot method was used to detect the expression of MOR and EM2 in smooth muscle cells of the colon .

Results: The colonic smooth muscle cells were cultured and identified . The positive cells labeled with α ⁃smooth muscle actin ( α ⁃SMA) accounted for more than 95% of the total number of cells . Immunofluorescence double labeling showed that there were MOR and EM2 distributions in colonic smooth muscle cells , and all MOR and EM2 positive cells coexisted with α ⁃SMA . Western Blot results showed that there were MOR and EM2 expressions in colonic smooth muscle cells . CaM in the ACh group significantly increased at 10 minutes (P < 0. 05) , CaM in the EM2 group significantly decreased ( P < 0. 05) ; The calciumion imaging results showed that alone applied ACh , the calciumion concentration in smooth muscle cells significantly increased ( P <0. 05) ; Alone applied EM2 , the calciumion concentration in colonic smooth muscle cells was down⁃regulated (P <0. 05) ; Applied ACh and EM2 sequentially , EM2 significantly reduced the increase of the calciumion concentration in smooth muscle cells induced by ACh (P < 0. 05) . Conclusion MOR and EM2 are expressed in colonic smooth muscle cells , and EM2 may inhibit the expression of CaM and reduce the concentration of calcium ions through MOR .

Objective:To assess the safety and efficacy of riboflavin/ultraviolet-A-induced accelerated epithelium-off corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) for teenagers with keratoconus.Methods:In this case series study, 25 eyes of 18 patients with primary keratoconus who underwent riboflavin/ultraviolet-A-induced accelerated epithelium-off CXL in Zhengzhou Second People's Hospital from January 2017 to February 2018 were included, and the average age of patients was (14.4±1.3) years.The uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), spherical equivalent (SE), maximum keratometry reading (K max), thinnest corneal thickness (TCT), posterior corneal elevation (PCE) and endothelial cell density (ECD) were measured before and after CXL.The patients were followed up for one year.The complications and adverse reactions were recorded.The study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by an Ethics Committee of Zhengzhou Second People's Hospital (No.KY2017002). Written informed consent was obtained from each patient and their guardian prior to the surgery. Results:The mean UCVA (LogMAR) was 0.96±0.35 at baseline, which was significantly improved to 0.84±0.33 at 1 year postoperatively ( t=-5.765, P<0.01). The mean BCVA (LogMAR) was 0.45±0.22 preoperatively, which was significantly improved to 0.34±0.26 at 1 year postoperatively ( t=-4.843, P<0.01). The mean SE was (8.66±5.11)D at baseline, which was significantly higher than (8.07±5.21)D at 1 year postoperatively ( t=-3.253, P=0.003). The K max was reduced from (58.58±9.07)D preoperatively to (56.25±9.98)D at 1 year postoperatively, with significant difference between the two time points ( t=-4.357, P<0.01). The K max was reduced more than 1 D in 17 eyes (68%), was stable in 6 eyes(24%), and was increased more than 1 D in 2 eyes (8%). The TCT was reduced from (485.0±32.5)μm at baseline to (475.3±35.5)μm at 1 year postoperatively, with significant difference between the two time points ( t=-4.266, P<0.01). The differences of PCE and ECD between preoperative and postoperative 1 year were not statistically significant ( t=1.023, P=0.316; t=-1.424, P=0.167). There was one eye suffering peripheral sterile corneal infiltrate 2 days postoperatively, and favorable prognosis was achieved after the topical steroids application.No complication was encountered in other subjects. Conclusions:Riboflavin/ultraviolet-A-induced accelerated epithelium-off CXL is safe and effective in teenagers with keratoconus during the 1-year follow-up.The long-term effects need further observation.

OBJECTIVE： To prepare Adriamycin hydrochloride （DOX） magnetic thermosensitive liposome （MTSL）， investigate its physicochemical properties， magnetic effect and photothermal effect， so as to provide reference for tumor chemo- therapy and photodynamic/photothermal therapy. METHODS： Using DOX as model drug， TiO2@Fe3O4 as photosensitizers and magnetic materials， DOX-TiO2@Fe3O4-MTSL was prepared with membrane dispersion method. The morphology and dispersibility were observed； particle size and Zeta potential were detected； encapsulation efficiency of the liposome were determined by centrifugal ultrafiltration and HPLC. Its paramagnetism property was also detected by magnetometer. Compared with DOX solution， in vitro release behavior of the liposome was investigated by dialysis method， and the release curves at different temperatures （at 37， 43 ℃） were compared. The photothermal conversion effect of the liposome and the production of reactive oxygen species （ROS） in human breast cancer MCF-7 cells were investigated by near infrared laser irradiation at 808 nm. RESULTS： Prepared DOX-TiO2@Fe3O4-MTSL was brown-black with good water dispersion， and was spherical in shape and uniform in size under electron microscopy. Average particle size was 250.6 nm； polydispersity index was 0.107； Zeta potential was （－7.76±3.41）mV； encapsulation efficiency was （92.3±3.2）％. Under the external magnetic field， the liposome could move in a directional direction and had obvious paramagnetism. Compared with DOX solution， the liposomes released slowly and showed obvious sustained- release characteristics. Compared with at 37 ℃， the drug release of liposome speeded up significantly at 43 ℃.With the increase of laser （808 nm） irradiation time， the temperature of the liposome kept rising， which had obvious photothermal conversion effect and could induce the increase of ROS in MCF-7 cells. CONCLUSIONS： DOX-TiO2@Fe3O4-MTSL is prepared succe- ssfully， which has uniform appearance， good physical and chemical properties. It has obvious paramagnetism sustained release effect and photothermal conversion efficiency， and can promote ROS production in MCF-7 cells under near infrared laser irradiation at 808 nm.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of fine needle aspiration biopsy combined with BRAFV600E gene mutation detection in elderly patients with thyroid nodules.Methods A total of 168 elderly patients with thyroid nodules suspicious for malignancy on ultrasound from January 2017 to December 2017 at our hospital were enrolled in this study.Using color Doppler ultrasound,185 thyroid nodules were found.Fine needle aspiration cytology(FNAC)and BRAFV600E gene mutation detection were performed before surgery and the findings were compared with postoperative pathological results.The diagnostic value of single and combined detection of FNAC and BRAFV600E gene mutation was evaluated.Results Among 185 thyroid nodules,there were 146 malignant lesions including 137 papillary carcinomas and 9 follicular carcinomas,and 39 benign lesions including 31 cases of nodular goiter,5 cases of Hashimoto's thyroiditis and 3 cases of adenoma.The sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,positive predictive value and negative predictive value of FNAC were 79.5％,59.0％,75.1％,75.2％,and 45.6％,respectively.The sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,positive predictive value and negative predictive value of BRAFV600E gene mutation detection were 78.1％,51.3 ％,72.4 ％,84.4 ％ and 51.2 ％,respectively.The sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,positive predictive value and negative predictive value of the combined detection were 93.4％,77.5％,86.2％,90.8％ and 53.4％,respectively.The sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,positive predictive value and negative predictive value of the combined detection were higher than those of either method used alone (all P＜0.05).Conclusions For some thyroid nodules that cannot be unequivocally diagnosed as benign or malignant by FNAC,the combined detection of FNAC and BRAFV600E gene mutation can significantly improve the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of malignancy detection,differentiate between benign and malignant nodules,and help formulate operation plans and subsequent treatment.

Objective To summarize the clinical features of patients with ovarian tumor associated anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis,and to explore the influence of operation patterns on the prognosis.Methods The clinical data of ovarian tumors with anti-NMDAR encephalitis in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2009 to December 2018 were collected,and the clinical characteristics,treatment and prognosis were analyzed.Results A total of 110 patients with ovarian tumors and anti-NMDAR encephalitis were collected.All patients were positive for anti-NMDAR antibodies in serum and/or cerebrospinal fluid.The age of onset ranged from 10 to 35 years (24.6 ±5.7).About 60.9％ patients'initial symptom was psychosis.The main clinical features were psychosis (97.3％),seizures (83.6％),conscious disturbance (72.7％),autonomic dysfunction (64.5％),dyskinesia (64.5％),central hypoventilation (54.5％) and impaired memory (31.8％).Most patients'symptoms were relieved after surgery and immunotherapy.Postoperative pathological results revealed that ovarian teratoma accounted for 97.8％ of the ovarian tumor.The prognosis of patients with surgery was better than the patients without surgery,with statistically significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).The prognosis of patients with adnexectomy was better than the patients with ovarian tumor excision,with statistically significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Anti-NMDAR encephalitis,with psycho-neurological symptoms as dominant manifestation,is usually associated with ovarian tumor.For young female patients with psychosis,clinicians should be alert to the possibility of anti-NMDAR encephalitis and screen for tumor.Patients with adnexectomy and immunotherapy can get a better prognosis.

Objective: To investigate the effect of dietary control combined with different exercise modes on plasma vaspin, irisin, and metabolic parameters in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) through a randomized open parallel-controlled study. Methods: The patients aged 30-65 years who visited Tianjin Third Central Hospital from January 2013 to December 2014 and were diagnosed with NAFLD by liver ultrasound and fat content determination were screening, and 474 patients were enrolled in this randomized controlled trial and divided into aerobic exercise group, resistance exercise group, and control group. All patients received dietary intervention. The three groups were compared in terms of biochemical parameters, fat content, NFS score, energy metabolic parameters, body composition index, and levels of vaspin and irisin at baseline and after 6 months of intervention. SPSS 19.0 was used for statistical analysis. The t-test, the Mann-Whitney U test, the chi-square test, and an analysis of variance were used for comparison between groups. The multiple imputation method was used for missing data, and the results were included in the intention-to-treat analysis. Results: There were no significant differences in age, sex, anthropometrical parameters, and biochemical parameters between the three groups at baseline. Compared with dietary control alone, aerobic exercise and resistance exercise helped to achieve significant reductions in waist circumference, diastolic pressure, percentage of body fat, volatile fatty acid, fasting blood glucose, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, free fatty acid, uric acid, alanine aminotransferase, and liver fat content after 6 months of intervention (P < 0.05). The aerobic exercise group had a significant increase in non-protein respiratory quotient and significant reductions in body mass index and aspartate aminotransferase after intervention, as well as a significant increase in resting energy expenditure and significant reductions in abdominal fat ratio and total cholesterol after 6 months of resistance exercise (P < 0.05). The aerobic exercise group and the resistance exercise group had a significant reduction in vaspin and a significant increase in irisin after intervention (P < 0.05), and the resistance exercise group had significantly greater changes in these two adipokines than the aerobic exercise group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Exercise therapy is an effective method for the treatment of metabolism-associated diseases, and a combination of resistance and aerobic exercises is more reasonable and effective in clinical practice. As a relatively safe exercise mode, resistance exercise can also effectively improve the metabolic state of NAFLD patients.

Objective: To analyze the mental health status and its impact factors among nurses, finding ways to improve the mental health of nurses. Methods: A total of 13 425 female healthcare workers aged from 18 to 65 were selected as study objects. The survey was conducted with unified design questionnaire. The survey included the basic situation of the individuals and SCL-90 questionnaire. Comparing the female doctors, the mental health status and its impact factors of nurses were analyzed. Results: The income, age, education and occupation, which include shift work, heavy work load and overtime work are different between nurses and doctors. The main mental health problems of nurses were obsessive-compulsive symptoms, depressive symptoms and somatization. The results of univariate analysis indicated that shift work, overtime work, and heavy work load affected the positive rate of each factor. The results of multivariate analysis showed that occupation, shift work, overtime work, and heavy work load have significant adverse effects on the positive rate of the total score in female healthcare workers (P<0.01) . The positive rate of each dimension of SCL-90 in nurses is significantly higher than that of doctors. Conclusion The mental health problems of nurses are significantly higher than doctors. The main reasons are low occupational level and adverse workstyles which include shift work, heavy workload and so on. Health administration and hospital management departments should pay much more attention to the mental health of nurses, improving their mental health through a variety of ways.
