Gastric cancer is a high-incidence malignancy that poses a serious threat to public health in China, ranking among the top three cancers in both incidence and mortality. The majority of patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage, resulting in limited treatment options and poor prognosis. To address key challenges in gastric cancer diagnosis and treatment, a research team led by Professor Jiafu Ji at Peking University Cancer Hospital has focused on the project "Development and Dissemination of Precision Medicine Approaches in Gastric Cancer Management". Through a series of high-quality multicenter clinical studies, the team established a set of new international standards in perioperative treatment, individua-lized drug selection, intelligent noninvasive diagnostics, and novel immunotherapy strategies. These advances have significantly improved treatment efficacy and reduced surgical trauma, achieving key technological breakthroughs in diagnosis, therapy, and mechanistic understanding, and systematically enhancing outcomes for gastric cancer patients. The project ' s findings had a broad international impact, including hosting China ' s first International Gastric Cancer Congress. Through nationwide dissemination, they have promoted the development of precision diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer as a discipline, and led the formulation of the National Health Commission's guidelines for gastric cancer diagnosis and treatment. In recognition of its achievements, the project was awarded the First Prize of the 2024 Chinese Medical Science and Technology Award.

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum fibroblast growth factor 2(FGF2)and angiotensin converting enzyme 2(ACE2)levels with the severity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)and their predictive value for prognosis.Methods A total of 114 COPD patients treated in Hainan Cancer Hospital from June 2020 to June 2022 were selected as the study group.According to the severity of the disease,COPD patients were divided into acute exacerbation stage and stable stage.Another 114 healthy subjects were selected as control group.Serum FGF2 and ACE2 levels were detected by enzyme-linked immu-nosorbent assay.Pearson method was used to analyze the correlation between serum FGF2 and ACE2 and pul-monary function indicators.Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of poor prognosis in COPD patients,and receiver operating characteristics(ROC)curve was plotted to analyze the predictive value of serum FGF2 and ACE2 for poor prognosis in COPD patients.Results Serum FGF2 level in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05),and serum ACE2 level,the ratio of exertional expiratory volume in the first second to predicted(FEV1％),the ratio of FEV1 to forced vi-tal capacity(FEV1/FVC),and peak expiratory flow rate(PEF)in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Serum FGF2 level in acute exacerbation was significantly higher than that in stable stage(P＜0.05),serum ACE2 level,FEV1％,FEV1/FVC and PEF were significantly low-er than that in stable stage(P＜0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum FGF2 and ACE2 levels were negatively correlated(P＜0.05),and serum FGF2 and ACE2 were correlated with FEV1％,FEV1/FVC and PEF(P＜0.05).The serum FGF2 level in the poor prognosis group was significantly higher than that in the good prognosis group(P＜0.05),and the serum ACE2 level was significantly lower than that in the good prognosis group(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that FGF2 was a risk factor for adverse prognosis in COPD patients(P＜0.05),and ACE2 was a protective factor(P＜0.05).According to ROC curve,the combination of serum FGF2 and ACE2 predicted the AUC of poor prognosis in COPD patients better than that predicted separately(Z=2.514,2.610,both P＜0.05).Conclusion Serum FGF2 level in-creased and ACE2 level decreased in COPD patients,both of which are closely related to the severity of the disease.Combined detection has certain predictive value for poor prognosis in COPD patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of asiaticoside on blood pressure and relaxation of thoracic aorta in rats and explore the underlying mechanism.Methods SD rats treated with 50 and 100 mg/kg asiaticoside by daily gavage for 2 weeks were monitored for systolic blood pressure changes,and histological changes of the thoracic aorta were evaluated using HE staining.In isolated rat endothelium-intact and endothelium-denuded thoracic aorta rings,the effects of asiaticoside on relaxation of the aortic rings were tested at baseline and following norepinephrine(NE)-and KCl-induced constriction.The vascular relaxation effect of asiaticoside was further observed in NE-stimulated endothelium-intact rat aortic rings pretreated with L-nitroarginine methyl ester,indomethacin,zinc protoporphyrin Ⅸ,tetraethyl ammonium chloride,glibenclamide,barium chloride,Iberiotoxin,4-aminopyridine,or TASK-1-IN-1.The aortic rings were treated with KCl and NE followed by increasing concentrations of CaCl2 to investigate the effect of asiaticoside on vasoconstriction induced by external calcium influx and internal calcium release.Results Asiaticoside at 50 and 100 mg/kg significantly lowered systolic blood pressure in rats without affecting the thoracic aorta histomorphology.While not obviously affecting resting aortic rings with intact endothelium,asiaticoside at 100 mg/kg induced significant relaxation of the rings constricted by KCl and NE,but its effects differed between endothelium-intact and endothelium-denuded rings.In endothelium-intact aortic rings pretreated with indomethacin,ZnPP Ⅸ,barium chloride,glyburide,TASK-1-IN-1 and 4-aminopyridine,asiaticoside did not produce significant effect on NE-induced vasoconstriction,and tetraethylammonium,Iberiotoxin and L-nitroarginine methyl ester all inhibited the relaxation effect of asiaticoside.In KCl-and NE-treated rings,asiaticoside obviously inhibited CaCl2-induced vascular contraction.Conclusion Asiaticoside induces thoracic aorta relaxation by mediating high-conductance calcium-activated potassium channel opening,promoting nitric oxide release from endothelial cells and regulating Ca2+ influx and outflow,thereby reducing systolic blood pressure in rats.

Objective: This study aimed to determine the predictive performance of non-contrast CT (NCCT) signs for hemorrhagic growth after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) when stratified by onset-to-imaging time (OIT). Materials and Methods: 1488 supratentorial ICH within 6 h of onset were consecutively recruited from six centers between January 2018 and August 2022. NCCT signs were classified according to density (hypodensities, swirl sign, black hole sign, blend sign, fluid level, and heterogeneous density) and shape (island sign, satellite sign, and irregular shape) features. Multivariable logistic regression was used to evaluate the association between NCCT signs and three types of hemorrhagic growth: hematoma expansion (HE), intraventricular hemorrhage growth (IVHG), and revised HE (RHE). The performance of the NCCT signs was evaluated using the positive predictive value (PPV) stratified by OIT. Results: Multivariable analysis showed that hypodensities were an independent predictor of HE (adjusted odds ratio [95% confidence interval] of 7.99 [4.87–13.40]), IVHG (3.64 [2.15–6.24]), and RHE (7.90 [4.93–12.90]). Similarly, OIT (for a 1-h increase) was an independent inverse predictor of HE (0.59 [0.52–0.66]), IVHG (0.72 [0.64–0.81]), and RHE (0.61 [0.54– 0.67]). Blend and island signs were independently associated with HE and RHE (10.60 [7.36–15.30] and 10.10 [7.10–14.60], respectively, for the blend sign and 2.75 [1.64–4.67] and 2.62 [1.60–4.30], respectively, for the island sign). Hypodensities demonstrated low PPVs of 0.41 (110/269) or lower for IVHG when stratified by OIT. When OIT was ≤ 2 h, the PPVs of hypodensities, blend sign, and island sign for RHE were 0.80 (215/269), 0.90 (142/157), and 0.83 (103/124), respectively. Conclusion Hypodensities, blend sign, and island sign were the best NCCT predictors of RHE when OIT was ≤ 2 h. NCCT signs may assist in earlier recognition of the risk of hemorrhagic growth and guide early intervention to prevent neurological deterioration resulting from hemorrhagic growth.

Objective To investigate the Gram-positive coccus resistance in nationwide's tertiary hospitals and understand the trend of antimicrobial resistance.Methods All the clinical isolates were collected from 19 hospitals and the minimal inhibitory concentrations(MICs)were tested using agar/broth dilution method recommended.Results A total of 1 974 pathogenic Gram-positive coccus from 19 tertiary hospitals in 19 cities nationwide over the period from July 2021 to June 2022 were studied.Based on the MIC results,the prevalence of methicillin resistant Stapylococcus aureus(MRSA)and methicillin resistant Stapylococcus epidermidis(MRSE)were 36.4％and 79.9％respectively.No vancomycin insensitivity Staphylococcus was detected.Staphylococcus aureus were 100％susceptibility to linezolid and teicoplanin.Antibiotic resistance rate of Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium to ampicillin were 3.1％and 92.9％.The detectation rate of vancomycin resistant Enterococcus(VRE)was 1.6％.Nonsusceptibility rate of Enterococcus faecalis to linezolid was 32.2％,two consecutive monitoring rises and nonsusceptibility rate of Enterococcus faecium(12.5％)was also significantly increased.The prevalence of penicillin non-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae(PNSSP)was 0.8％based on non-meningitis and parenteral administration criterion,decrease of nearly 30 percentage points from the previous surveillance.While for cases of oral penicillin,the rate was 71.8％,showing similar to last time.The results indicated that the number of strains with higher MIC value of penicillin(MIC ≥4 mg·L-1)decreased significantly.There were no significant differences of resistance rates of Stapylococcus aureus,Stapylococcus epidermidis,Enterococcus faecalis,Enterococcus faecium and Streptococcus pneumoniae among various groups such as different department,age,or specimen source.Conclusion VRE detection ratio stablized at a relatively low level.The number of Streptococcus pneumoniae with higher MIC value of penicillin decreased significantly compared with the previous monitoring.The increase of linezolidin-insensitive Enterococcus was noteworthy.

Objective To investigate the Gram-negative bacteria resistance in nationwide's tertiary hospitals and understand the trend of antimicrobial resistance.Method All the clinical isolates were collected from 19 hospitals and the minimal inhibitory concentrations(MICs)were tested using agar/broth dilution method recommended.Results A total of 4 066 pathogenic isolates from 19 tertiary hospitals in 19 cities nationwide over the period from July 2021 to June 2022 were studied.Based on the MIC results,Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae showed extended spectrum β-lactamase(ESBLs)phenotype rates of 55.0％and 21.0％,respectively,ESBLs phenotype rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae keep going down.The ratios of carbapenems resistance Klebsiella pneumoniae increased by 5 percentage points compared with the previous monitoring.Carbapenems,moxalactam,sitafloxacin,β-lactam combination agents,fosfomycin trometamol,and amikacin displayed desirable antibacterial activity against Enterbacterales,susceptibal rates were above 75％.In addition,tigacycline,omacycline,colistin and fluoxefin maintained good antibacterial activity against their respective effective bacteria/species,and the bacterial sensitivity rates by more than 80％.Resistance rates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannnii to imipenem were 26.3％and 72.1％and multidrug-resistant(MDR)detection rates were 41.1％and 77.3％,extensively drug-resistant(XDR)were 12.0％and 71.8％,respectively.Comparison of drug resistance rates from different wards,ages and specimen sources indicated that the proportion of resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae and Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from intensive care unit(ICU)were significantly higher than non-ICU.Carbapenem resistance rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from ICU were more than 35％.Resistance rates of Haemophilus influenzae isolated in children to β-lactam,macrolide,clindamycin and ESBLs detection rate in Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from children were more than those from adults and the old people,so bacterial resistance in children is an important problem in China.Conclusion ESBLs detection rate of Escherichia coli increased slightly after years of continuous decline.The proportion of carbapenem resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa was stable,but the resistance rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Acinetobacter baumannii to carbapenems was still increased,which should be paid more attention.

Objective:To establish the common carotid artery aneurysm models of Wallstent double stent overlapping implantation in miniature pigs, and evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this procedure by observing the imaging and pathological changes.Methods:Sidewall aneurysm and fusiform aneurysm models in Bama miniature pigs were established surgically and 2 Wallstent stents were overlapped and implanted in situ. Aneurysm healing immediately after surgery and during 8 weeks of follow-up were evaluated according to 2D-DSA by O'Kelly-Marotta (OKM) grading scale and Kamran scale; degrees of stent adhesion immediately after surgery and status of stent endothelialization and aneurysm healing at 2, 4, and 8 weeks after surgery were observed by high resolution C-arm CT(HR-CBCT) and optical coherence tomography (OCT); and the changes of stent endothelialization were evaluated by comparing the HR-CBCT and OCT results with histopathology at 8 weeks after surgery. Perioperative adverse events were recorded.Results:After successful establishment of common carotid artery aneurysm models (including 4 sidewall aneurysms and 4 fusiform aneurysms with average diameter of [11.0±2.8] mm) in 8 miniature pigs, a total of 16 Wallstent stents (2 in each aneurysm) were implanted across the aneurysmal neck, with a technical success rate of 100%. No serious complications such as acute stent thrombosis, or aneurysm rupture and bleeding were observed in the perioperative period. The 2D-DSA immediately after surgery showed obvious intracranial contrast agent retention in 6 patients (1 patient in grading 1, 3 in grading 2, and 2 in grading 3) and aneurysm occlusion in 2 patients (grading 4). Eight weeks after follow-up, all 8 aneurysms had complete occlusions (grading 4); and 2 experimental pigs had in-stent restenosis, with stenosis rates of 52% and 67%, respectively. HR-CBCT and OCT immediately after surgery and during follow-up indicated that the stent metal braid was gradually covered by proliferating intima, with disappeared aneurysm. The cause of in-stent restenosis in 2 experimental pigs was local intima hyperplasia resulted from poor stent adhesion, and pathological findings indicated that the intima hyperplasia was mainly composed of smooth muscle cells and fibrous connective tissues.Conclusion:In animal models, Wallstent stent overlapping implantation is safe and effective in common carotid aneurysms, but intraoperative adverse adhesion of overlapping stent should be avoided.
