ObjectiveTo investigate the associations of multiple glycolipid metabolic indicators and their cumulative abnormality burden with incident colorectal cancer risk in a general population-based prospective cohort, and to examine the mediating role of glycolipid metabolic abnormalities in the relationships between smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, and colorectal cancer incidence. MethodsA total of 17 897 eligible participants recruited from the Taizhou Cohort between 2011 and 2014 were included. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to assess the associations of conventional and derived glycolipid indicators, as well as a glycolipid abnormality index constructed from total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, fasting plasma glucose, and insulin, with incident colorectal cancer risk. Restricted cubic spline models were applied to evaluate dose-response relationships for major indicators. Receiver operating characteristic curves were generated to compare predictive performance across indicators. Mediation analyses were conducted to assess the mediating effects of the glycolipid abnormality index on the associations of smoking, alcohol consumption, and physical activity with colorectal cancer incidence. ResultsDuring a median follow-up of 11.2 years, 102 incident colorectal cancer cases were identified, with an incidence density of 51.2 per 100 000 person-years. After adjustment for potential confounders, Cox proportional hazards regression analyses showed that decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol was associated with a 1.74-fold higher risk of colorectal cancer (HR=1.74, 95%CI: 1.03‒2.95), elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol was associated with a 1.78-fold higher risk (HR=1.78, 95%CI: 1.05‒3.02), and abnormal fasting plasma glucose was associated with a 1.86-fold higher risk (HR=1.86, 95%CI: 1.15‒3.02). Triglycerides and fasting plasma glucose showed an approximately linear increasing association with colorectal cancer risk in multivariable restricted cubic spline models. The glycolipid abnormality index showed a clear gradient association with colorectal cancer risk; participants with three or more abnormal indicators had a 3.08-fold higher risk than those without abnormalities (HR=3.08, 95%CI: 1.60‒5.92). The area under the curve was 0.795, higher than that of individual glycolipid indicators and other combined indices, and gender-stratified analyses showed generally consistent patterns. Glycolipid metabolic abnormalities partially mediated the associations of smoking, alcohol consumption, and physical activity with colorectal cancer incidence, with mediation proportions of 8.33%, 9.45%, and 9.04%, respectively. ConclusionGlycolipid metabolic abnormalities are associated with an increased risk of incident colorectal cancer. The glycolipid abnormality index shows an increasing relationship with colorectal cancer risk and demonstrates better discrimination, and it partially mediates the associations of smoking, alcohol consumption, and physical activity with colorectal cancer incidence in the overall population.

Objective: To identify optimal recommendations for 24 hour movement behaviors in relation to obesity indicators among children and adolescents, so as to provide scientific evidences for targeted obesity prevention strategies. Methods: From April to June 2024, 242 participants (96 children aged 6-11, 146 adolescents aged 12-18) were recruited from two schools(one combined junior and senior high school, one consistent school for 12 years) in Tianjin for performing physical examination. Obesity indicators including body mass index Z scores (BMI Z ), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), body fat percentage (FAT), and fat mass index (FMI) were measured. Measurement of 24 hour movement behaviors using an accelerometer, comprised moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), light physical activity (LPA), sedentary behavior (SB), and sleep (SLP). The optimal movement duration and interval for children and adolescents were determined through optimal time zone analysis. Results: Significant associations were found between 24 hour movement behaviors and BMI Z ( F =2.35) and WHR ( F =3.55) in children, as well as BMI Z ( F = 3.57 ), FAT ( F =2.44), and WHR ( F = 3.61 ) in adolescents (all P <0.05). The results of optimal time zone analysis showed that optimal daily durations were MVPA 63( 40- 70) min, LPA 257(220-270) min, SB 467(390-600) min, SLP 653(590-680) min for children, and MVPA 65(40-70) min, LPA 262(220-270) min, SB 484(440-600) min, SLP 629(510-670) min for adolescents. Conclusion The recommended amount of 24 hour movement for children and adolescents based on obesity indicators could provide reference for informing the development of Chinesespecific guidelines,and promote healthy lifestyles among children and adolescents.

Objective:To explore the risk fall death associated with compound hot extremes.Methods:This study collected data on fall deaths in Guangdong, Hunan, and Zhejiang Provinces from 2013 to 2018 and matched their exposure to meteorological data. Based on a time-stratified case-crossover design, a conditional logistic regression model embedded with a cross-basis function of the distributed lag nonlinear model was applied to estimate the risk of fall to death due to compound hot extremes.Results:Compared with regular days, compound hot extremes significantly increased the risk of death from falls ( OR=1.19, 95% CI: 1.09-1.30), and women ( OR=1.27, 95% CI: 1.11-1.45) and the elderly age 65 and above ( OR=1.24, 95% CI: 1.12-1.39) were more sensitive to compound hot extremes. The maximum duration of compound hot extremes was 7 days, and the maximum intensity was 6.2 ℃, and the duration and intensity were proportional to the risk of death from falls. The risk of death from falls increased by 12% ( OR=1.12, 95% CI: 1.06-1.18) each day, increasing in duration after linearization. The risk of death from falls increased by 16% ( OR=1.16, 95% CI: 1.10-1.22) for each 1 ℃ increase in linearized intensity. Conclusion:Compound hot extremes increase the risk of death cases from falls.

Objective:To investigate the effects of oral propranolol on the heart rate and blood glucose levels in children with hemangiomas receiving hospital care.Methods:A total of 259 children [77 males and 182 females, aged (125.2±85.4) days, weighted (6.3±1.6) kg], who were treated with oral propranolol for the first time under hospital care from January 2013 to August 2021, were retrospectively analyzed. After fasting, the patients administered the same dose of propranolol once daily (0.5-2.5 mg/kg). Fasting blood glucose and heart rate were measured in all children before propranolol administration and after 2 h. Heart rate was measured at 1, 3 and 6 h after propranolol administration for three consecutive days. Adverse reactions were observed and recorded.Results:Within three days of oral propranolol administration, the heart rates at 1, 3 and 6 h after propranolol administration were lower than those before propranolol administration (all P<0.001). Within three days after taking propranolol and 2 h after taking propranolol daily, blood glucose levels reduced in all children (all P<0.001). During the hospitalization period, the incidence of adverse reactions was 5.4% (14/259), including lesion ulcers in four cases, upper respiratory tract infection with fever in four, reduced eating in two, nausea and vomiting in one, lethargy in one, sinus tachycardia in one, and hyperkalemia in one. No serious adverse reactions were life-threatening. Conclusion:After oral administration of propranolol, the heart rate and blood sugar of the children decrease to different degrees compared with those before propranolol administration.

Objective:To assess the effectiveness of a 6-month Ba Duan Jin exercise program in improving the balance of community-dwelling older adults.Methods:A two arms, parallel-group, cluster randomized controlled trial was conducted in 1 028 community residents aged 60-80 years in 40 communities in 5 provinces of China. Participants in the intervention group (20 communities, 523 people) received Ba Duan Jin exercise 5 days/week, 1 hour/day for 6 months, and three times of falls prevention health education, and the control group (20 communities, 505 people) received falls prevention health education same as the intervention group. The Berg balance scale (BBS) score was the leading outcome indicator, and the secondary outcome indicators included the length of time of standing on one foot (with eyes open and closed), standing in a tandem stance (with eyes open and closed), the closed circle test, and the timed up to test.Results:A total of 1 028 participants were included in the final analysis, including 731 women (71.11%) and 297 men (28.89%), and the age was (69.87±5.67) years. After the 3-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 3.05 (95% CI: 2.23-3.88) points ( P<0.001). After the 6-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 4.70 (95% CI: 4.03-5.37) points ( P<0.001). Ba Duan Jin showed significant improvement ( P<0.05) in all secondary outcomes after 6 months of exercise in the intervention group compared with the control group. Conclusions:This study showed that Ba Duan Jin exercise can improve balance in community-dwelling older adults aged 60-80. The longer the exercise time, the better the improvement.

Objective: To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety between neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery and surgery alone in the treatment of resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Methods: Literature review was performed from Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CBM, Wanfang Data, CNKI and Chongqing VIP. The randomized controlled clinical trials of concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery versus surgery alone in the treatment of resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma were retrieved. The meta-analysis of survival data, R₀ resection rate, incidences of postoperative complications and peritreatment mortality was conducted by using RevMan 5.3 software. Results: A total of 1450 patients from 11 controlled clinical trials were included in this meta-analysis. The results of the meta-analysis showed that concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery group had significantly higher 2-and 5-year overall survival rate (RR=1.14, 95%CI: 1.05-1.23, P=0.00) and progression-free survival rate (RR=1.56, 95%CI: 1.05-2.32, P=0.03). R₀ resection rate were also improved in concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery group (RR=1.10, 95%CI: 1.05-1.14, P=0.00). Compared with the surgery alone group, the incidence of arrhythmia in the concurrent chemoradiotherapy plus surgery group was significantly higher (RR=2.45, 95%CI: 1.37-4.38, P=0.00). However, there was no significant difference in the overall incidence of postoperative complications (RR=1.12, 95%CI: 0.79-1.59, P=0.51) and incidence of peritreatment mortality (RR=1.78, 95%CI: 0.90-3.52, P=0.10) between two groups. Conclusions Neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery improves the survival and R₀ resection rate over surgery alone among patients with resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, whereas it does not increase the risk of postoperative complications. Consequently, neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery is an optimal treatment for patients with resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety between neoadjuvant therapy followed by radical surgery and definite chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of Ⅰ B2-Ⅱ B cervical cancer.Methods A computerized search was performed in PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,CBM,Wanfang Data,CNKI and VIP to collect controlled clinical trials related to neoadjuvant therapy followed by radical surgery versus definite chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of ⅠB2-ⅡB cervical cancer.The meta-analysis of survival data and adverse events was performed by Review Manager 5.3 software.Results Nine controlled clinical trials involving 3 914 patients were included in this meta-analysis.There were no significant differences in overall survival (HR =0.83,P =0.31) and progression-free survival (HR=O.85,P=0.57) between two groups.Compared with patients receiving definite chemoradiotherapy,those in the neoadjuvant therapy group had a significantly lower risk of irradiation enteritis (RR=0.27,P=0.03),whereas no significant difference was observed in the risk of irradiation cystitis (RR=0.30,P=0.34) and grade ≥ 3 neutropenia (RR=0.77,P=0.46) between two groups.Conclusion In the treatment of locally advanced ⅠB2-Ⅱ B cervical cancer,two modalities show similar survival benefits.Although the neoadjuvant therapy group yields a lower incidence of irradiation enteritis,the incidence rates of irradiation cystitis and grade ≥3 neutropenia do not significantly differ between two groups.Neoadjuvant therapy followed by radical surgery is not superior to the standard therapeutic regime.

Objective To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety between high-dose (74 to 80 Gy) and conventional-dose (64.0 to 70.2 Gy) conventionally fractionated external beam radiotherapy for stage T1b-4No-1M0 prostate cancer in this meta-analysis.Methods A literature search was performed in PubMea,ambasa,aochrane Librara,aeb of Scienca,aBa,aanfang Data,aNKI and Chongqing VIP to collect clinical trials on high-dose versus conventional-dose conventionally fractionated external beam radiotherapy of prostate cancer from the inception to July 1,2018.The included literatures were evaluated by Cochrane quality evaluation criteria and subject to meta-analysis by using Review Manager 5.3 statistical software.Results A total of 7 randomized controlled clinical trials involving 4 132 patients were included in the meta-analysis.The meta-analysis showed that the high-dose and conventional-dose groups yielded similar 10-year overall survival (RR=1.01,95％CI:0.96 to 1.07,P=0.64) and 10-year prostate cancer-specific survival (RR=1.01,95％CI:0.98 to 1.03,P=0.47).The biochemical failure rate in the high-dose group was significantly lower than that in the conventional-dose group (RR =0.78,95％CI:0.70 to 0.86,P＜0.01).Compared with the conventional-dose groua,ahe incidence of late grade ≥ 2 gastrointestinal and genitourinary adverse reactions (RR=1.48,95％CI:1.31 to 1.67,P＜0.01;RR=1.35,95％CI:1.06 to 1.73,P=0.02) was significantly higher in the high-dose group.Conclusion High-dose conventionally fractionated external beam radiotherapy has advantages in reducing the biochemical failure rate of patients with stage T1b-4N0-1M0 prostate cancer.Nevertheless,whether it can improve overall survival and prostate cancer-specific survival remains to be validated.High-dose radiotherapy also induce a higher incidence rate of late grade ≥ 2 gastrointestinal and genitourinary adverse reactions compared with conventional-dose radiotherapy.
