Objective To study the five-year survival status and influencing factors of elderly patients with lung cancer complicated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods A cohort study was conducted to follow up 450 patients with lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who were hospitalized in our hospital from January 2018 to December 2023. The endpoint of the follow-up was the end of a five-year period or death. The Life Tables method was used to calculate survival rates and plot survival curves. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the influencing factors of five-year survival. Results The results indicated that the overall five-year survival rate of patients was 4.89%, and it decreased year by year. Cox regression analysis showed that age, gender, family functioning, and psychological status significantly influenced patient survival rate (all P<0.05). Stratified analysis found that the smoking status, family functioning, and psychological status of male patients all had an impact on survival rate (all P<0.05), while the psychological status of female patients had a more significant impact on survival (P=0.008). Conclusion This study provides a scientific basis for comprehensive intervention of elderly lung cancer patients with COPD. It is recommended that clinical attention should be paid to psychological and family factors to improve patient prognosis.

ObjectiveTo prepare a recombinant PETase with a dual-catalytic-triad and to evaluate its efficiency in the biodegradation of polyethylene terephthalate （PET）. MethodsBased on the crystal structure of wild-type PETase， point mutations （T88H/L117D） were introduced via site-directed mutagenesis. The recombinant protein was prepared using prokaryotic expression and chromatography purification techniques. The enzymatic hydrolysis of the mutant PETase was assessed by relatively quantifying the products mono （2-hydroxyethyl） terephthalate （MHET） and terephthalic acid （TPA）. ResultsBoth wild-type and mutant PETases accumulated as inclusion bodies， accounting for approximately 20% of the total bacterial protein. After solubilization in urea， the proteins were eluted at 300 mmol/L imidazole during affinity chromatography purification， with concentrations of 1.824 and 1.833 mg/mL and purities of 83.11% and 84.32%， respectively. Subsequent anion-exchange chromatography yielded highly pure enzymes in the 200 mmol/L NaCl fraction： 2.776 mg/mL （96.86% purity） for the wild type and 1.967 mg/mL （95.13% purity） for the mutant. Following refolding， the final concentrations were 0.484 mg/mL for the wild type and 0.991 mg/mL for the mutant. Hydrolysis assays revealed that the mutant released MHET and TPA at （237.67±17.00）% and （197.33±12.01）% of the wild-type levels， respectively. ConclusionThe T88H/L117D dual-catalytic-triad PETase is successfully prepared and it significantly enhanced PET-degrading activity， thus， it′s a promising biocatalyst for PET bioremediation.

Objective To explore the relationship between overactive bladder(OAB)and neuropsychological characteristics in patients with cerebral small-vessel disease(CSVD).Methods A total of 208 patients with CSVD admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Shihezi University from December 2023 to November 2024 were selected as research subjects.They were divided into OAB group(44 cases)and non-OAB group(164 cases)according to overactive bladder symptom score.The general information and imaging data of two groups of patients were compared.The cognitive function,anxiety and depression of patients were evaluated by using Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA),digit span test(DST),auditory verbal learning test(AVLT),verbal fluency test(VFT),clock drawing test(CDT),Hamilton anxiety scale(HAMA)and Hamilton depression scale(HAMD).Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of OAB in patients with CSVD.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between imaging indicators and anxiety symptoms of patients in OAB group.Results The HAMA and HAMD scores of patients in OAB group were higher than those in non-OAB group(P＜0.05),but there were no statistically significant differences in MoCA,DST,AVLT,VFT,and CDT scores between two groups(P＞0.05).There was a statistically significant difference in the incidence of anxiety among patients with different degrees of OAB(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis after adjusting for confounding factors showed that anxiety was an independent influencing factor for OAB in patients with CSVD(P＜0.05).The periventricular white matter hyperintensity of patients in OAB group was negatively correlated with the HAMA score(P＜0.05),while basal ganglia lacunar infarction,centrum semiovale lacunar infarction,basal ganglia enlarged perivascular space and centrum semiovale enlarged perivascular space were all positively correlated with the HAMA score(P＜0.05).Conclusion The anxiety and depression symptoms of patients with CSVD accompanied by OAB were more severe than those of non-OAB patients.Anxiety may be an independent influencing factor for the occurrence of OAB in patients with CSVD.
