Objective To evaluate the prognostic value of endosomal sorting complex required for transport(ESCRT)-related genes in osteosarcoma(OS)based on bioinformatics.Methods Preprocessing was performed on 88 OS sequencing samples(with 29 death outcomes)downloaded from the TARGET database and 257 patient clinical information.The Cox proportional hazards model was constructed using the survival package to screen ESCRT genes related to the survival.The STRING database was used to construct a protein-protein interaction(PPI)network,and core genes were selected based on PPI.KEGG enrichment analysis was performed on the selected core genes with more than 5 nodes.Lasso regression analysis was applied to identify ESCRT-related genes more closely related to the prognosis of OS patients.Results A total of 1 486 ESCRT-related genes were identified,of which 164 were associated with the survival.CLTC,MYC,INSR,PTPN1,and TNFRSF1A were identified as core genes related to the prognosis of OS patients.OS patients were randomly divided into a training set(n=44)and a validation set(n=44).In the training set,OS patients in the high-risk group had the significantly shorter overall survival than those in the low-risk group(P<0.05),and the similar results were obtained in the validation set(P<0.01).The ROC(receiver operating characteristic)curve showed an AUC of 0.846 in the training set and 0.877 in the validation set.Prognostic survival analysis and differential analysis of core genes revealed no difference in MYC between high-and low-risk groups in the validation set,and no difference in INSR in the training set.In the overall dataset,all prognostic core genes showed significant differences(P<0.05).Survival analysis of core genes using the R package Survival showed significant differences in survival rates for four genes(CLTC,INSR,PTPN1,TNFRSF1A)except MYC(P>0.05).Univariate independent prognostic analysis identified three genes(TNFRSF1A,PTPN1,MYC)associated with OS survival.Multivariate independent prognostic analysis ultimately identified two key genes(TNFRSF1A,PTPN1)as independent factors influencing OS survival prognosis and closely related to OS patient survival.Conclusion A risk scoring model for OS survival prognosis based on the expression of two key genes,TNFRSF1A and PTPN1,was been successfully constructed using bioinformatics and it can provide more options for clinical treatment and survival prognosis assessment of OS.

Objective To investigate the impact of social psychological factors on adherence among subjects with chronic diseases during the early phase of new drug clinical trials and propose strategies to optimize trial outcomes.Methods Between December 2020 to December 2023,observational datas were collected from subjects participating in new drug clinical trials in the Frist Hospital of Jiaxing,including customized sociodemographic informations,Eysenck personality questionnaire(EPQ)survey results,symptom checklist 90(SCL-90)scores,Beck anxiety inventory(BAI)scores,Beck depression inventory(BDI)scores.The SCL-90 was further categorized into ten factor scores,and the EPQ was evaluated based on four dimensional standard T-scores.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify the related factors.Results Univariate analyses showed that gender,willingness to go out,EPQ_T neuroticism,SCL-90,SCL somatic,SCL obsessive compulsive,SCL interpersonal,SCL depression,SCL anxiety,SCL psychoticism,SCL other,BAI scores,and BDI scores were associated with adherence in subjects with chronic diseases.Multivariate analysis confirmed that a higher willingness to go out,elevated BAI and BDI scores were positively associated with non-adherence risk,whereas an increase in the SCL-90 somatization factor scores were inversely related to adherence risk in subjects with chronic diseases.Conclusion Identifying and managing anxiety and depression among subjects with chronic diseases,as well as understanding their outdoor plans,are crucial for enhancing adherence during the early stages of new drug clinical trials.In certain instances,subjects with chronic diseases heightened awareness of bodily discomfort may paradoxically promote adherence.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the applicability of Singapore Ministry of Manpower( MOM) risk model and MES model in risk assessment of occupational health hazard caused by chemical poisons in shoemaking enterprises. METHODS: A medium-sized shoemaking enterprise in Guangzhou City was selected as the research object to carry out on-the-spot investigation of occupational health,measure the level of chemical hazards in the air of the workplace. Occupational health risk assessment of chemical toxins in the workplace was conducted using the MOM model and the MES model,and the results of the two evaluations were compared. RESULTS: The occupational chemical hazards in workplace of the shoemaking enterprise mainly included the toluene,xylene,ethyl acetate,butyl acetate,n-hexane,and 1,2-dichloroethan( 1,2-DCE). The concentration-time weighted average( CTWA) of 1,2-DCE at the stitching post,methylbenzene at the brush coating post and ethyl acetate at the cleaning post exceeded occupational exposure limits. The MOM model assessment results showed that methylbenzene was of high risk and 1,2-DCE was of medium risk in brush coating post. n-Hexane and1,2-DCE were of medium risk in stitching post. Ethyl acetate and 1,2-DCE was of medium risk in cleaning post. The results of the MES model evaluation showed that the risk level of n-hexane and 1,2-DCE used in sticking,brush coating and cleaning posts was extremely high and the remaining chemicals were highly dangerous. CONCLUSION: Both MOM model and MES model can easily predict and assess the occupational health risk of various posts in shoemaking enterprises to some extent. The assessment result of MES model is more practical than that of MOM model.
