Objective To translate the good death inventory-short form(GDI-SF)into Chinese and test its reliability and validity among bereaved family members of cancer patients.Methods A Chinese version of GDI-SF was created through translation,reconciliation,back translation,expert panel review and pilot testing.Then the inventory was administered to 699 bereaved family members of cancer patients recruited by convenience sampling.Reliability and validity were assessed.Results Toally 305 family members finished the study.The item-level content validity index(I-CVI)and average content validity index(S-CVI/Ave)were both 1.00.Exploratory factor analysis yielded 5 common factors:professional medical care(6 items),preparation for farewell(4 items),dignity and life value(4 items),natural death and moral support(2 items),and physical and mental comfort(2 items).These factors explained 52.176%of total variance.Overall Cronbach α coefficient of the Chinese version GDI-S was 0.779,and split-half reliability was 0.731.The Pearson correlation coefficient range between the score of each item of the Chinese version of GDI-SF and the score of its corresponding dimension was 0.591 to 0.769(P<0.01).Conclusion The Chinese version GDI-SF exhibits acceptable reliability and validity assessment of the quality of good dying in cancer patients from the perspective of bereaved family members.

Objective To investigate the microstructural changes of white matter in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis(RRMS)and its correlation with clinical functional scores.Methods A total of 20 patients with RRMS(RRMS group)and 20 healthy controls(HC)(HC group)were selected and underwent diffusion tensor imaging(DTI)and expanded disability status scale(EDSS)scores.Patients with RRMS were categorized into two groups based on their EDSS scores,including MS-1 group(motor dysfunction with visual impairment)and MS-2 group(motor dysfunction).Image processing was performed via tract-based spatial statistics(TBSS).Group comparisons were executed using the t-test,while correlations were analyzed utilizing Spearman correlation.Results In the RRMS group,reduced fractional anisotropy(FA)values were accompanied by increased mean diffusivity(MD)and radial diffusivity(RD)values in the forceps major,forceps minor,bilateral cingulum,bilateral uncinate fasciculus,bilateral superior longitudinal fasciculus,bilateral inferior longitudinal fasciculus,bilateral inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus,bilateral corticospinal tract and bilateral anterior thalamic radiation compared with the HC group.Additionally,In the RRMS group,increased axial diffusivity(AD)values were noted in the forceps major,forceps minor,bilateral superior longitudinal fasciculus(temporal),right inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus,bilateral corticospinal tract and right anterior thalamic radiation compared with the HC group.Compared with the MS-2 group,the MS-1 group exhibited higher FA values in the right cingulum(cingulate gyrus part)and higher AD values in the left cingulum(cingulate gyrus part).Correlation analysis revealed negative correlations between the FA values of the forceps major,right superior longitudinal fasciculus and the motor function scores in RRMS group.Conversely,positive correlations were identified between the MD values of the forceps minor,right superior longitudinal fasciculus,right inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus,left corticospinal tract and the RD values of the forceps minor,right cingulum(hip-pocampus),right superior longitudinal fasciculus,and left corticospinal tract,as well as the motor function scores.Conclusion RRMS patients exhibit microstructural damage in white matter and are associated with motor dysfunction,which provides imaging support for the pathological mechanisms underlying motor dysfunction in RRMS patients.

OBJECTIVE To observe the effect of the Chinese herbal compound Weidiao No.3 Formula(WD-3)combined with immunotherapy and chemotherapy on survival outcomes in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)with lung-spleen qi dificiency type.METHODS A total of 216 patients with stage Ⅲb-Ⅳ NSCLC without driver gene mutations and with lung-spleen qi vacuity pattern and admitted to the oncology departments of Wuxi Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Jiangnan Uni-versity Affiliated Hospital between January 1,2020,and March 1,2025,were enrolled.Based on whether they received WD-3 oral treatment(≥3 months),they were divided into a Chinese medicine exposure group(n=98;WD-3+immunotherapy combined with chemo-therapy)and a non-exposure group(n=118;immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy alone).Propensity score matching(PSM)was used to balance baseline characteristics.Overall survival(OS),progression-free survival(PFS),and baseline characteristics were com-pared between the two groups.Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the association between exposure and outcome,and sensitivity analysis was performed.RESULTS After PSM,there were no statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups(P>0.05).After matching,the median OS(32.92 months)and median PFS(9.07 months)in the Chinese medicine exposure group were longer than those in the non-exposure group(23.24 months and 7.89 months,respectively),with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Multivariate analysis was conducted,incorporating age,PD-L1 expression,KPS score,pathological type,and other factors as covariates to assess the independent association between WD3 exposure and OS and PFS outcomes.The results indicated that WD3 exposure was statistically significant in reducing the risk of death(OS outcome)and disease progression(PFS outcome).Specifically,for the OS outcome,the HR was 0.626,with a 95%CI of 0.438 to 0.894,and P=0.01;for the PFS outcome,the HR was 0.721,with a 95%CI of 0.535 to 0.972,and P=0.032.Sensitivity analysis showed robust results(E-value>2.1).CONCLUSION WD-3 combined with immunotherapy and chemotherapy may prolong OS and PFS and reduce mortality risk in patients with advanced NSCLC without driver gene mutations and with lung-spleen qi dificiency type,achieves adequate therapeutic effects.

This study aims to describe the population and regional distribution characteristics of smoking behavior among adult twins in the China Twin Registry (CNTR), as well as the concordance rates for smoking behavior in monozygotic and dizygotic twins, and estimate the heritability. The study population included adult twins in CNTR who had smoking questionnaire data. A random-effects regression model was used to describe the distribution of smoking behavior among different subgroups based on various characteristics. The concordance of smoking behavior between different zygosity groups was calculated, and heritability was estimated. A total of 28 444 twin pairs were included in this study, with an average age of (36.6±12.0) years. Among male twins, 41.2% were current smokers, while only 1.2% of females smoked. Higher smoking rates were observed among male smokers in the 50-59 age group ( z=23.0, P<0.001), northern regions ( z=2.9, P<0.01), rural areas ( z=-5.2, P<0.001), those who were divorced/widowed ( z=3.8, P<0.001), and first-born twins ( z=-4.3, P<0.001), while lower smoking rates were found in those with higher education ( z=-16.1, P<0.001) and unmarried individuals ( z=-16.0, P<0.001). The smoking concordance rate for male monozygotic twins was 69.6%, significantly higher than the 57.3% concordance rate for dizygotic twins ( χ 2=105.0, P<0.05). The heritability of smoking behavior in male twins was estimated at 28.9% (95% CI: 24.3%-33.4%). Stratified analyses showed differences in heritability across regions and age groups: the heritability in northern regions was 32.6% (95% CI: 27.3%-38.0%), higher than the 21.0% (95% CI: 12.4%-29.5%) observed in southern regions; the highest heritability of 35.1% (95% CI: 26.3%-43.9%) was found in the 18-29 age group, with heritability decreasing with age. In conclusion, the smoking rate and influencing factors in the twin population are similar to those in the general population, with unique characteristics, such as higher smoking rates in first-born twins. Genetic factors have a significant impact on smoking behavior.

Objective:To describe the distribution characteristics of alcohol consumption in adult twins in the Chinese National Twin Registry (CNTR), and further explore the influence of genetic factors on alcohol consumption in adult twins.Methods:The subjects of the study were twins registered by CNTR in 11 project areas across China from 2010 to 2018. A total of 56 966 twins (28 483 pairs) aged 18 years and above who answered questions about drinking behavior were included, and the random effect model was used to describe the population and regional distribution characteristics of alcohol consumption. Intra-pair analysis was performed to calculate the concordance rate and heritability of their alcohol consumption.Results:The age of all subjects was (36.6±12.0) years, and current drinkers accounted for 16.6% (9 461/56 966) of all subjects. In men, those aged 50-59 years, those in northern China, those living in rural area, those with low education level and those with high BMI, the proportions of current drinkers were higher. After excluding 468 pairs of twins who had stopped alcohol use and 21 764 pairs of twins who had no drink or had small amount drink, an intra-pair analysis was conducted in 4 929 pairs of same-sex twins, and found that the concordance rate of alcohol consumption was 64.0% (2 059/3 215) in monozygotic twins, and 52.6% (902/1 714) in dizygotic twins, the difference was significant ( P<0.001), and the heritability of alcohol consumption was 24.1% (95% CI: 18.9%- 29.3%). The further stratified analysis found that in southern men, the heritability was highest in those aged 40-49 years (36.1%, 95% CI: 21.6%-50.7%), while in northern men, the heritability was highest in those aged 50-59 years (34.2%, 95% CI: 18.1%-50.3%). Conclusions:In adult twins in China, there were population and regional differences in the distribution of alcohol consumption behavior, and alcohol consumption was influenced by genetic factors, and gender, age and region had potential modifying effects.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between individual and combined exposure to ambient air pollutants and vitamin D, as well as the potential role of ultraviolet radiation (UVR) in mediating the relationships.Methods:This study included 6 967 participants from the China Kadoorie Biobank, whose baseline (2004-2008) blood 25-hydroxyvitamin D had been tested. The average monthly concentrations of pollutants (PM 2.5, PM 10, NO 2, O 3) and the UVR estimates in the month of blood sample collection were derived from the ChinaHighAirPollutants and ultraviolet datasets covering China, respectively. Linear models and multinomial logistic regression models were used to analyze the associations of each air pollutant with vitamin D concentrations and groups. Principal component analysis integrated with quantile-based g-computation was applied to evaluate the co-effects and relative contribution weights of air pollutants. Mediation analyses were performed to investigate the potential role of UVR. Results:PM 2.5, PM 10, NO 2, and O 3 were individually associated with vitamin D concentrations, as well as vitamin D groups: insufficiency (20-30 ng/ml) and deficiency (<20 ng/ml). For each 10 μg/m3 increase in monthly PM 2.5, PM 10, NO 2, and O 3, the percentage changes (95% CIs) in vitamin D concentrations were -1.71% (-2.16% - -1.26%), -1.30% (-1.60% - -1.00%), -3.77% (-4.60% - -2.93%), and 1.27% (0.91%-1.63%), respectively, with corresponding ORs (95% CIs) for vitamin D deficiency of 1.17 (1.06-1.29), 1.12 (1.05-1.19), 1.66 (1.38-2.00), and 0.81 (0.74-0.89). The mixture of the first principal component of PM 2.5 and PM 10 (PM), along with NO 2 and O 3, was negatively correlated with vitamin D. The percentage change (95% CI) in vitamin D concentrations for a one-quintile increase in the mixture was -2.20% (-3.56%- -0.82%), with NO 2 contributing the most (83%), followed by PM (17%). UVR-mediated association was 12.2% (95% CI：2.5%-23.0%) for PM 2.5 and 4.9% (95% CI：2.2%-8.0%) for PM 10 with vitamin D concentrations, respectively. Conclusion:Higher concentrations of particulate matter, NO 2, and a mixture of air pollutants were associated with lower vitamin D concentrations in Chinese adults, with reduced UVR acting as a partial mediator in the particulate matter-vitamin D relationship.
