Antisense oligonucleotides are a type of gene therapy that targets mRNA and inhibits gene expression. They have been applied in the treatment of various diseases, but there are still problems with poor enzyme stability and high dosage in vivo, due to the shortage of appropriate delivery system. Insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) is a cell surface receptor with tyrosine kinase activity. Its expression is abnormal in a variety of malignant tumors. It mediates the malignant proliferation, migration and invasion of tumor cells through a variety of ways. In this study, an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO, N04) targeting IGF1R mRNA was designed and chemically modified (PS, 2'-OMOE), then neutral cytidine lipid DNCA and cystine backbone cationic lipid CLD (Mix) were used to encapsulate ASOs. The particle size, polymer dispersity index and ζ potential of the formulations were 151 nm, 0.18 and -3.9 mV. The nanoparticles entered liver cancer cells (HepG-2, Huh-7), silenced target mRNA, arrested cell cycle in S phase, promoted apoptosis, and inhibited the proliferation efficiently. These results indicate that Mix/N04_MOE5 has great potential in tumor treatment, which provides a basis for further research on novel agents against hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective To analyze the diagnostic quality of imported malaria in Hubei Province from 2019 to 2022, and to further improve the diagnostic level and consolidate the achievements in eliminating malaria. Methods The samples of reported malaria cases in Hubei were collected by the provincial reference laboratory (PRL) from 2019 to 2022. The microscopy and fluorescent PCR were performed to confirm the infection of plasmodium species of each case．The positive coincidence rate and species coincidence rate were analyzed and compared． Results A total of 257 imported malaria cases were reported in Hubei Province from 2019 to 2022. Among 229 malaria cases were confirmed, the overall coincidence for malaria diagnosis was 91.24% (229/251), and the overall coincidence rate for parasite species identification was 86.03% (197/229). The difference in species coincidence rate among different years was statistically significant (χ²=10.458, P<0.05). The coincidence rates of malaria diagnosis and parasite species identification in different cities (prefectures) of Hubei Province were 71.43% to 100.00% and 50.00% to 100.00%, respectively, with significant differences among different regions (χ²=29.283, P<0.05). The coincidence rates of malaria diagnosis and parasite species identification were 72.73% to 100.00% and 0.00% to 100.00% in different diagnostic institutions, and the coincidence rate of species identification in hospitals (87.61%) was higher than that in Centers for Disease Control institutions (54.55%) (χ²=81.275, P<0.05). The coincidence rates of Plasmodium falciparum, P. vivax, P. malariae, and P. ovale identification were 91.50%, 88.57%, 80.00%, and 58.06%, respectively (χ²=19.777, P<0.05). Conclusion The quality of the qualitative diagnosis of malaria cases reported online from 2019 to 2022 is generally high. However, the ability of Plasmodium typing needs to be improved. In the future, technical training and quality control should be strengthened to improve the malaria surveillance capability during the post-elimination stage.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors for early tumor recurrence and the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy in gallbladder carcinoma (GBC) patients after curative-intent resection.Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 506 patients with GBC in 11 medical centers, including The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University et al, from January 2016 to December 2020 were collected. There were 168 males and 338 females, aged (62±11)years. All patients underwent curative-intent resection of GBC, and they were divided into patients with and without early recurrence based on time to postoperative recurrence. Observation indicators: (1) treatment; (2) follow-up and survival of patients; (3) analysis of influencing factors for early tumor recurrence after curative-intent resection of GBC; (4) efficacy of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Univariate analysis was conducted using the corresponding statistical methods based on data type. Multivariate analysis was conducted using the Logistic regression model with forward method. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curve and calculate survival rate, and Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Treatment. Of 506 patients, there were 112 cases with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, and 394 cases without postopera-tive adjuvant chemotherapy. They underwent 5(range, 3-9)cycles of postoperative adjuvant chemo-therapy. (2) Follow-up and survival of patients. All 506 patients underwent postoperative follow-up, with the follow-up time of 55(range, 34-93)months. During the follow-up, there were 248 patients with tumor recurrence, including 158 cases of early recurrence and 90 cases of late recurrence, and there were 258 patients without tumor recurrence. Of 506 patients, 275 cases survived, and 231 cases died of multiple organ failure caused by tumor recurrence and metastasis. The postoperative recurr-ence-free survival time, overall survival time were 52(range,1-93)months, 62(range, 2-93)months. The 1-, 3-, 5-year disease-free survival rates and 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rates of the 506 pati-ents were 68.8%, 53.8%, 47.9% and 78.3%, 58.7%, 51.6%, respectively. Results of survival analysis showed that the median overall survival time of 158 patients with postoperative early recurrence and 348 patients without postoperative early recurrence (including 90 cases of late recurrence and 258 cases of no tumor recurrence) were 9(range, 2-73)months and unreached, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=456.15, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of influencing factors for early tumor recurrence after curative-intent resection of GBC. Results of multivariate analysis showed that carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) >5.0 μg/L, poorly differentiated tumor, liver invasion, and tumor N staging as stage N1-N2 were independent risk factors influencing early tumor recurrence after cura-tive-intent resection of GBC ( odds ratio=2.74, 6.20, 1.81, 2.93, 4.82, 95% confidence interval as 1.62-4.64, 1.82-21.12, 1.15-3.08, 1.68-5.09, 1.91-12.18, P<0.05), while postoperative adjuvant chemo-therapy was an independent protect factor ( odds ratio=0.39, 95% confidence interval as 0.21-0.71, P<0.05). (4) Efficacy of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. The median overall survival time of 394 patients without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and 112 patients with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy were 57(range, 2-93)months and unreached, showing a significant differ-ence between them ( χ2=9.38, P<0.05). Of the 158 patients with postoperative early recurrence after curative-intent resection of GBC, 135 cases didn't receive adjuvant chemotherapy and 23 cases received adjuvant chemotherapy, with the overall survival time of 8(range, 2-73)months and 17(range, 8-61)months, respectively, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=7.68, P<0.05). Conclusions:CEA >5.0 μg/L, poorly differentiated tumor, liver invasion, and tumor N staging as stage N1-N2 are independent risk factors influencing early tumor recurrence after curative-intent resection of GBC, while postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy is an independent protect factor. Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy can prolong the overall survival time of patients with post-operative tumor early recurrence.

Objective:To investigate the distribution and hantavirus (HV) carrying state in host animals of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Henan Province from 2019 to 2022.Methods:Host animal monitoring was carried out at the monitoring sites of HFRS in Henan Province. The real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect hantavirus in rat lungs. The types of hantavirus were analyzed. The positive samples were sequenced and then sequence homology and variation were analyzed.Results:A total of 1 308 rodents were captured from 2019 to 2022, 16 specimens of rat lungs tested positive for hantavirus nucleic acid. The positive rate of HV was 1.22% (16/1 308). According to type, the positive rate of HV in Apodius agrarius was the highest (68.75%, 11/16). According to distribution, the positive rate of HV in field samples was the highest (2.50%, 12/480), and the positive rate of HV in residential samples was 0.53% (4/759). The typing results of 16 positive samples showed that all viruses were hantavirus type Ⅰ (hantaan virus). The positive samples were sequenced and eight S gene fragments (GenBank number: OQ681444-OQ681451) and six M gene fragments (OQ681438-OQ681443) were obtained. The S and M gene fragments were similar to the Shaanxi 84FLi strain and Sichuan SN7 strain. Phylogenetic analysis of S and M gene fragments showed that they all belonged to the hantaan virus-H5 subtype. Amino acid sequence analysis revealed that, compared with the hantaan virus vaccine strain 84FLi, the 74th amino acid encoded by eight S fragments was replaced by aspartamide with serine. Tryptophan was replaced by glycine at the 14th position of Gn region in XC2022047, and isoleucine was replaced by alanine at the 359 position of XC2022022 and XC2022024.Conclusion:The hantavirus carried by host animals in Henan Province from 2019 to 2022 belongs to the type Ⅰ (hantaan virus), and Apodemus agrarius is still the dominant host animal of the hantaan virus. Compared with the vaccine strains, amino acid sites are replaced in the immune epitopes of the S and M gene fragments.

Objective:This paper provides a brief overview of the epidemiology of colorectal cancer in China and around the world, and discusses how to prevent colorectal cancer to reduce its disease burden.Method:Using the official database of GLOBOCAN 2020, the China Cancer Registry Annual Report compiled by the National Cancer Center, and data from CONCORD-3.Data management was performed by Microsoft Excel 2016 and R 4.2.1 Relevant graphs were generated using the ggplot2 package for result visualization.Result:An estimated 1 931 590 people were diagnosed with colorectal cancer worldwide in 2020 with an age-standardized incidence rate of 19.5 per 100 000. There were about 935 173 deaths caused by colorectal cancer internationally, with an age-standardized mortality rate of 9.0 per 100 000. Overall, colorectal cancer was the fourth most commonly diagnosed cancer and the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide in 2020. In China, the age-standardized incidence rate and mortality rate of colorectal cancer was 17.3 per 100 000 and 7.8 per 100 000, respectively. Gender differences in trends were observed, with a decreasing trend in incidence and mortality among females and an increasing trend in incidence and mortality among males. The primary risk factors for colorectal cancer include age, genetic factors, gastrointestinal disorders, dietary habits, and lifestyle et al.Conclusions:Colorectal cancer poses a significant burden globally and in China. The occurrence of colorectal cancer is closely related to physiology, genetics, behavioral habits, lifestyle, and disease factors. To better control the colorectal cancer burden with the lowest cost, specific measures should be taken to reduce exposure to established risk factors. By combining the disease prevention and control strategies of tertiary prevention in China with the characteristic factors of colorectal cancer, the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer may be effectively controlled.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of coronary artery tortuosity and its correlation with poor prognosis in patients with septal hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. Patients with septal HCM who were hospitalized in Fuwai Central China Cardiovascular Hospital and Zhengzhou University People′s Hospital between December 1, 2017 and June 10, 2021 were selected. Non-HCM patients were matched by gender, age, and hypertension as control group. Septal HCM was divided into two groups based on the presence or absence of coronary artery tortuosity. Clinical baseline data and coronary angiography findings were compared using a multifactorial logistic analysis of the risk factors for coronary artery tortuosity. Patients were followed up until July 1, 2022, with the primary outcome being the composite endpoint of malignant arrhythmia, ischemic stroke and all-cause death. Incidence densities were compared between the coronary artery tortuosity and non-coronary artery tortuosity groups of septal HCM patients. The Cox risk-ratio model was used to analyze risk factors for primary outcomes in septal HCM patients.Results:There were 156 patients in the septal HCM group and 156 patients in the control group, both aged (57.0±11.4) years, and 75 (48.1%) were female. The incidence of coronary artery tortuosity was significantly higher in the septal HCM group than in the control group (63.5% vs. 36.5%, P<0.01), and the coronary artery tortuosity score was also higher in the septal HCM group than in the control group ( P<0.01). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that septal HCM was a risk factor for coronary artery tortuosity ( OR=3.27, 95% CI: 2.02-5.29, P<0.01). In the septal HCM patients, after (2.5±1.2) years of follow-up, the incidence density of primary outcome was significantly higher in the coronary artery tortuosity group than in the non-coronary artery tortuosity group ( P=0.02), while each on-point in coronary artery tortuosity score increased the risk of primary outcome by 53% for septal HCM patients ( HR=1.53, 95% CI: 1.26-1.86, P<0.01). Conclusions:Patients with septal HCM are more prone to suffer coronary artery tortuosity and suffer from it to a greater extent. Coronary artery tortuosity is an important risk factor for adverse events in patients with septal HCM.

Lung cancer remains one of the leading cause of global cancer-related mortality, posing a significant burden of disease. Tobacco exposure stands as the foremost risk factor for lung cancer. Since the 1960, global efforts have gradually been implemented to control tobacco exposure, consequently reducing tobacco exposure levels within populations. This shift in exposure levels may have altered the epidemiological characteristics of lung cancer globally. This study aims to describe global lung cancer incidence data across five dimensions: age, gender, region, stage at diagnosis, and survival status, using global cancer registry data and relevant research findings. The objective is to elucidate the current epidemiological features of lung cancer worldwide, providing a scientific basis for lung cancer prevention and control. Furthermore, this study offers corresponding measures and recommendations for lung cancer prevention and control, aligning with the three-tiered cancer prevention strategy. Findings indicate that the incidence and mortality burden of lung cancer is significantly higher among the elderly population (aged 65 years and above) compared to the working-age population (aged 15-64 years). The aged-standardized incidence rate of lung cancer remains higher in males than in females, but the overall aged-standardized incidence rate of lung cancer in males shows a declining trend, while that in females shows an increasing trend. Regions with high and very high human development index (HDI) exhibit a substantially higher incidence and mortality burden of lung cancer compared to regions with low and very low HDI. Japan ranks highest in the diagnosis of stage Ⅰ lung cancer, with a diagnosis rate of 38.6%. Its age-standardized 5-year net survival rate is relatively high at 32.9%. Despite improvements in the survival status of lung cancer in certain countries like China and Japan, the overall prognosis for lung cancer remains pessimistic. Given the current epidemiological characteristics of lung cancer, reinforcing tobacco control measures and reducing female-specific lung cancer risk factors stand as significant goals for primary prevention. Promoting low-dose computed tomography screening for high-risk population, minimizing false-positive rates in lung cancer screening, and promoting medical system reforms and standardized treatment constitute principal measures for secondary and tertiary lung cancer prevention, respectively.

Objective:To analyze the incidence, mortality, and survival status and trends of lung cancer in China.Methods:The data of incidence, mortality, disability-adjusted life year (DALY), and survival status and trends of lung cancer in China were collected from GLOBOCAN 2020, Global Burden of Disease Study in 2019 (GBD2019) databases, and the CONCORD-3 project report. Joinpoint 5.0 software was used to analyze the age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) of lung cancer in China from 1990 to 2019. Data management was conducted by using Excel 2016, and relevant graphical representations were generated using the ggplot2 package in software R 4.2.1.Results:In 2020, a total of 815 563 lung cancer cases were newly reported in China with the ASIR of 34.8/100 000, in which 539 181 cases were reported in men, with the ASIR of 47.8/100 000, and 276 382 cases were reported in women, with the ASIR of 22.8/100 000. A total of 714 699 lung cancer deaths were reported in 2020, with the ASMR of 30.2/100 000. Among these deaths, there were 471 546 deaths in men with the ASMR of 41.8/100 000, and 243 153 deaths in women with the ASMR of 19.7/100 000. From 1990 to 2019, the ASIR and ASMR of lung cancer in both men and women showed increasing trends ( P<0.05). However, from 2010 to 2019, the ASIR and ASMR of lung cancer in men showed decreasing trends, with annual percent of change (APC) of -0.17% (95% CI: -0.24% - -0.09%) and -0.69% (95% CI: -0.79% - -0.59%), respectively. The ASIR and ASMR of lung cancer in women showed increasing trends from 2016 to 2019, with APC of 3.33% (95% CI: 2.73% - 3.88%) and 2.61% (95% CI: 1.99% - 3.28%), respectively. The five-year net survival rate for lung cancer was 19.8% in China (95% CI:19.4% - 20.2%) from 2010 to 2014. Conclusions:The morbidity and mortality of lung cancer in China remain at high levels, the prognosis of lung cancer was poor, and the disease burden of lung cancer would become more serious in the context of population aging, so three-level prevention of lung cancer should be implemented to address this problem. In addition, attention should be paid to the increasing trends of ASIR and ASMR of lung cancer in women in recent years. Further investigation of risk factors and targeted prevention are needed to curb the rising trend in the incidence of lung cancer in women.

A deep learning-based model for automatic diagnosis and classification of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis has been constructed.This model mainly included key points detection and Cobb angle measurement.748 full-length standing spinal X-ray images were retrospectively collected,of which 602 images were used to train and validate the model,and 146 images were used to test the model performance.The results showed that the model had good diagnostic and classification performance,with an accuracy of 94.5%.Compared with experts'measurement,94.9%of its Cobb angle measurement results were within the clinically acceptable range.The average absolute difference was 2.1°,and the consistency was also excellent(r2≥0.9552,P<0.001).In the future,this model could be applied clinically to improve doctors'diagnostic efficiency.
