Objective:To understand the current state of financial toxicity and suicide risk in head and neck cancer patients, to investigate the correlation between the level of financial toxicity and suicide risk in head and neck cancer patients, and to provide a basis for reducing the level of financial toxicity and the risk of suicide in head and neck cancer patients.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted, from March 1 to July 31, 2022, 150 head and neck cancer patients were selected from Oncology Department of East Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Universityby by convenient sampling method. The survey was carried out by means of the general questionnaire, Comprehensive Score for Financial Toxicity based on the Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (COST-PROM), Cancer Suicide Risk Scale (CSRS), and then analysis the datum.Results:The score of COST-PROM of 150 head and neck cancer patients was (18.00 ± 6.12) points, and the score of CSRS of head and neck cancer patients was (36.31 ± 8.51) points. The total score of economic toxicity was significantly negatively correlated with the total score of suicide risk and its dimensions ( r values were -0.446 to 0.235, all P<0.05). The total score of suicide risk was negatively correlated with the total score of economic toxicity and the scores of each dimension ( r values were -0.446 to -0.251, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Patients with head and neck cancer were at higher risk of suicide, and financial toxicity was a significant contributing factor to suicide risk, with higher levels of financial toxicity associated with a higher risk of suicide. Reducing the level of financial toxicity in patients with head and neck cancer has important implications for reducing their risk of suicide.

Metformin is currently a strong candidate anti-tumor agent in multiple cancers. However, its anti-tumor effectiveness varies among different cancers or subpopulations, potentially due to tumor heterogeneity. It thus remains unclear which hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patient subpopulation(s) can benefit from metformin treatment. Here, through a genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9-based knockout screen, we find that DOCK1 levels determine the anti-tumor effects of metformin and that DOCK1 is a synthetic lethal target of metformin in HCC. Mechanistically, metformin promotes DOCK1 phosphorylation, which activates RAC1 to facilitate cell survival, leading to metformin resistance. The DOCK1-selective inhibitor, TBOPP, potentiates anti-tumor activity by metformin in vitro in liver cancer cell lines and patient-derived HCC organoids, and in vivo in xenografted liver cancer cells and immunocompetent mouse liver cancer models. Notably, metformin improves overall survival of HCC patients with low DOCK1 levels but not among patients with high DOCK1 expression. This study shows that metformin effectiveness depends on DOCK1 levels and that combining metformin with DOCK1 inhibition may provide a promising personalized therapeutic strategy for metformin-resistant HCC patients.

Objective:To study the coronal bone structure matching of distal radius in normal population and some patients with postoperative distal radius fracture, and to explore the clinical significance of coronal bone structure reduction of distal radius fracture.Methods:CT scans of 80 asymptomatic wrists were performed. Mimics 20.0 and 3-Matic research software were used to measure the matching data of coronal bone structure of the distal radius. Total of 44 patients with distal radius fractures treated with open reduction and volar plate fixation were collected. According to the data coronal bone structure of the distal radius, the matching group was in the normal range, and the mismatching group was less than the normal range. X-ray films were used to evaluate fracture healing, humeral height, ulnar angle and palm tilt angle at 3 months and 12 months after operation. The clinical indexes of wrist pain, wrist function, grip strength and activity were recorded in 2 groups. The DASH score was used for evaluation, and statistical comparisons was made between the two groups of related indicators.Results:The coronal bone structure matching value of the distal radius in 80 normal adults was 45.0%±16.2%. All the 44 patients with distal radius fracture were followed up for an average of 16 months. The postoperative wound healing was good, and the bone healing standard was reached 3 months after the operation. 3 months after surgery, radius height, ulnar deviation angle and palmar inclination angle of the mismatched group were all smaller than those of the matched group, but the differences had no statistical significance. The pronation angle in the mismatched group (68.82°±11.62°) was lower than that in the matched group (76.91°±9.14°), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.567, P=0.014). The DASH score in the mismatched group (15.53±2.36) was higher than that in the matched group (13.62±2.52), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.591, P=0.013). 12 months after surgery, the VAS score of the matched group (2.08±2.95) was less than that of the mismatched group (2.95±1.24), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.348, P=0.024). There was no significant difference in wrist range of motion, grip strength and DASH score between the two groups. Conclusion:The coronal bone structure matching of distal radius is about 45.0% in normal population. Early wrist dysfunction, limited pronation, and wrist pain may occur when the postoperative matching degree of the distal radius fracture is not within the normal range.

Objective:To explore the operative effect and treatment strategies for the low distal humerus fracture.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 16 patients with the low distal humerus fracture between January 2016 and January 2018 at Department of Orthopaedics, Shanghai Tongji Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University.All fractures were coronal fractures of humeral head, partly combined fractures of humeral trochlea or posterior part. Fractures were classified according to Dubberley classification as 9 cases in type Ⅰ, 3 cases in typeⅡ and 4 cases in type Ⅲ.Selection of the kind of operative approach and internal fixation was made according to the fracture type and shape. For simple coronal fractures of humeral head or combining humeral trochlea fractures, which were relatively stable, single or multiple countersunk screws fixation by the lateral approach were chosen.For humeral head coronal fractures, which combining obviously displaced comminuted humeral trochlea factures, posterolateral locking plates and countersunk screws internal fixation by the olecranon osteotomy approach were chosen. The incision and elbow soft tissues were observed within 2 weeks after operation.The radiographic evaluation of fracture reduction, bone healing, internal fixation, arthritis and elbow range of motion were made at 3, 6, 12 months after operation. The Mayo elbow functional scores were documented for analysis of elbow joint function, and compared between different surgery groups by Kruskal-Wallis H test. Results:The follow-up time was (22.1±9.2)months(range: 15 to 39 months). The incisions healed well in 2 weeks after operation without soft tissue infection, necrosis or vascular complications. There was no fracture reduction loss or internal fixation loosening according to radiographic evaluation 3 months after operation. One case of ectopic ossification was observed 6 months after operation and inhibited by the treatment of non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.One case of ulnar neuritis occurred after operation and released after removing the long screw and loosing the ulnar.Osteoarthritis images were observed at the end of follow-up.Arc of motion was (120.4±11.2) ° in flexion and (5.5±1.9) ° in extension. The Mayo score was 88.7±9.1, including 11 excellent, 4 good, and 1 fair.The Mayo score was 90.1±3.7 in Dubberley classification type Ⅰcases, 89.7±4.6 in type Ⅱ cases and 84.5±5.8 in type Ⅲ cases. There were no significant differences in Mayo scores between 3 types cases according to Kruskal-Wallis H test. Conclusion:Choosing the appropriate surgical approach and composite internal fixation according to the fracture types and shapes of low distal humerus fracture, anatomic reduction of the articular surface and early functional exercise are the keys to obtain ideal curative effect.
