Objective·To investigate the efficacy and safety of a dose-reduced,all-oral lenalidomide/melphalan/prednisone acetate(RMP)regimen in elderly and frail patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma(NDMM).Methods·Elderly and frail NDMM patients who visited the Department of Hematology of Ruijin Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine,and the Third People's Hospital of Kunshan from April 2018 to March 2024 were retrospectively included.Clinical data and laboratory indicators were collected,and all patients were treated with the RMP regimen.SPSS 27.0 and R software were used for statistical analysis.Independent t-test was applied to normally distributed quantitative data,Mann-Whitney U test to non-normally distributed quantitative data,and x2 test and Fisher's exact probability method to qualitative data.Kaplan-Meier survival curves and Log-rank test were used for survival analysis.Results·Among the 22 elderly and frail NDMM patients treated with RMP,the median age was 76.3(68.4,95.0)years,and the median follow-up time was 25.5 months.The overall response rate(ORR)was 68.2%,and the rate of≥very good partial response(VGPR)was 36.4%.The median progression-free survival(PFS)was 20.53 months.The median PFS in the≤75-year-old group was 25.23(95%CI 12.95?37.52)months,while in the>75-year-old group it was 18.23(95%CI 14.86?21.61)months.There was no significant difference between the two groups.The median PFS in the≥partial response(PR)group was 20.67(95%CI 13.57?27.76)months,and in the

Objective:To explore the potential prognostic value of the HAMP(hepcidin)gene in gastric adenocarci-noma and its correlation with immune infiltration in gastric cancer.Methods:This study systematically analyzed the ex-pression characteristics of the HAMP gene using bioinformatics approaches based on mRNA data from 448 gastric ad-enocarcinoma tissues and non-tumor tissues in the TCGA database.Firstly,the cBioPortal platform was employed to analyze the genetic variation features of the HAMP gene,and the LinkedOmics database was used to evaluate the corre-lation between its methylation status and expression levels.Kaplan-Meier survival analysis with log-rank test was per-formed to assess the relationship between HAMP expression levels and patient prognosis.Furthermore,by integrating TIMER2.0 and TISIDB databases,we systematically evaluated the correlation between HAMP expression and immune-related genes as well as immune cell infiltration.Gene Set Enrichment Analysis(GSEA)was conducted to investigate HAMP-associated signaling pathway characteristics.Finally,STRING and Gepia databases were utilized to construct a protein-protein interaction network of HAMP and identify core interacting genes,comprehensively evaluating the role of HAMP in immune infiltration in gastric adenocarcinoma.Results:The expression level of HAMP was significantly higher in gastric adenocarcinoma tissues compared to normal tissues(P<0.01),and its elevated expression was strongly associ-ated with poor patient prognosis,manifested by significantly shorter overall survival(OS),progression-free survival(PFS),and post-progression survival(PPS)(all P<0.05).Genomic analysis revealed that HAMP mutations in gastric cancer were predominantly amplification-type,and its methylation level showed a positive correlation with mRNA expression(r=0.14,P<0.001).Immunological analysis demonstrated that high HAMP expression was significantly correlated with multiple key immune checkpoint molecules(PD-1:rho=0.274;PD-L1:rho=0.211;CTLA-4:rho=0.199,all P<0.001)and immune cell infiltration(dendritic cells:r=0.548;macrophages:r=0.414;neutrophils:r=0.374,all P<0.001).Pathway enrichment analy-sis indicated that the high HAMP expression group was significantly enriched in immune-related pathways including anti-gen presentation and NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity.Furthermore,protein-protein interaction network analysis identified core interacting genes such as TREM2 and TYROBP,suggesting that HAMP may participate in tumor immune regulation through specific molecular networks.Conclusion:HAMP is highly expressed in gastric cancer,and its high expression significantly reduces the survival time of gastric adenocarcinoma patients,demonstrating prognostic value.HAMP ex-pression is positively correlated with most immune-related genes in STAD and significantly associated with the abun-dance of multiple immune cell infiltration levels,serving as an independent prognostic factor related to immune infiltration.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic and nonspecific disease affected by both genetic and environmental factors. Ecological and social environmental factors, including air pollutants, heavy metals, industrial pollutants and organic pollutants, diet, and lifestyle, influence the occurrence and development of IBD and regulate IBD gene expression through epigenetics and gut microbiota. This article summarizes the role of environmental factors in IBD and explores the ways in which they influence the regulation of gene expression.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic gastrointestinal inflammatory disorder with unclear etiology. Existing studies indicate that diet plays an important role in both the pathogenesis and prognosis of IBD. This review summarizes clinical evidence regarding the association between diet and the development of IBD, analyze the current nutritional status of the IBD population at the prognosis level and underlying mechanisms of dietary interventions in disease management, and explores the application of precision nutrition in personalized care. The review ultimately aims to provide guidance for developing more precise and personalized dietary management strategies for IBD patients.

Aim To investigate the impact of G pro-tein-coupled estrogen receptor 1(GPER1),also known as GPR30 playing a significant role in the nerv-ous system,on neuronal damage and cognitive dysfunc-tion following epileptic seizures.Methods The pro-tein expression levels of GPER1 and the DNA damage marker γ-H2AX in epileptic rats were assessed using Western blot.The hippocampal neuronal damage and apoptosis in pilocarpine-induced epilepsy models were evaluated using Nissl and TUNEL staining techniques,compared with GPER1 knockdown(GPER1-KD)rats with wild-type(WT)controls.The behavioral activi-ties,including memory and spatial learning,were mo-nitored during the chronic phase of epilepsy using the IntelliCage system.Results Compared to the control group,GPER1 protein expression in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus significantly increased 24 hours post-epilepsy onset.In the GPER1-KD+EP group,hipp-ocampal neuronal damage was more severe,with a sig-nificant increase in apoptotic neurons compared to the WT+EP group.The IntelliCage data revealed that during free exploration,nose contact,position learn-ing,and reverse position learning stages in the GPER1-KD+EP group exhibited fewer visits and a higher error rate than in the WT+EP group.Conclu-sions Deficiency in GPER1 impairs memory and spa-tial learning abilities following epilepsy,potentially due to exacerbated neuronal injury,apoptosis,and inflam-mation.GPER1 represents a promising therapeutic tar-get for mitigating post-epileptic nerve damage and cog-nitive impairment.

Objective:To investigate effect of quality improvement based on the Attitude-Skill-Knowledge(ASK)model on quality of life and emotion in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods:This random-ized controlled study enrolled 220 AMI patients admitted in Liyang People's Hospital between October 2020 and Oc-tober 2022.They were divided into control group(n=110,routine nursing)and intervention group(n=110,addi-tional quality improvement intervention based on ASK model).After 2-month intervention,scores of Patient Health Questionaire-9(PHQ-9),Beck Anxiety Inventory(BAI)and General Quality of life Inventory(GQOLI-74),cardiac function and satisfaction for nursing were compared between two groups.Results:After 2-month intervention,compared with patients in control group,those in intervention group had significant higher score of GQOLI-74[(372.82±23.07)points vs.(306.48±15.53)points],significant lower scores of PHQ-9[(9.58±2.41)points vs.(15.36±3.51)points]and BAI[(8.61±0.24)points vs.(16.81±3.54)points],levels of N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)[(5.03±1.15)pg/ml vs.(13.11±1.22)pg/ml],cardiac troponin I(cTnⅠ)[(2.90±0.51)pg/ml vs.(4.76±1.32)pg/ml]and creatine kinase isoenzyme MB(CK-MB)[(8.70±2.31)ng/ml vs.(13.63±2.63)ng/ml](P＜0.001 all).Total satisfaction for nursing in intervention group was significantly higher than that of control group(94.55％vs.83.64％,P=0.009).Conclusion:Quality improvement based on Attitude-Skill-Knowledge model could improve cardiac function and quality of life as well as negative emotion in AMI patients with high satisfaction.
