Objective The leptin receptor,encoded by the LEPR gene,is involved in tumorigenesis.A potential functional variant of LEPR,rs1137101(Gln223Arg),has been extensively investigated for its contribution to the risk of digestive system(DS)cancers,but results remain conflicting rather than conclusive.Here,we performed a case-control study and subsequent meta-analysis to examine the association between rs1137101 and DS cancer risk. Methods A total of 1,727 patients with cancer(gastric/liver/colorectal:460/480/787)and 800 healthy controls were recruited.Genotyping of rs1137101 was conducted using a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP)assay and confirmed using Sanger sequencing.Twenty-four eligible studies were included in the meta-analysis. Results After Bonferroni correction,the case-control study revealed that rs1137101 was significantly associated with the risk of liver cancer in the Hubei Chinese population.The meta-analysis suggested that rs1137101 is significantly associated with the risk of overall DS,gastric,and liver cancer in the Chinese population. Conclusion The LEPR rs1137101 variant may be a genetic biomarker for susceptibility to DS cancers(especially liver and gastric cancer)in the Chinese population.

Diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, collectively referred to the " Three Highs, " represent increasingly prevalent metabolic risk factors in China. Many individuals experience all three conditions concurrently, significantly heightening the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Although the National Metabolic Management Center(MMC) has been established for over eight years and has its unique features, the awareness, treatment, and control rates of these diseases in China remain low, and the efficiency of community management is insufficient. According to the previous two editions of management guidelines and the most recent domestic and international diagnostic and treatment guidelines, this paper conducts an in-depth analysis of the operational experience and management strategies of the MMC. Its aim is to improve the efficiency of grassroots MMC mode management for " Three Highs" patients and ensure that patients receive more standardized management.

Objective: To examine the clinical value of fluorescence-guided indocyanine green (ICG) laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy in the treatment of primary hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods: Data from patients diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma and who underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy with ICG fluorescence navigation in the Department of Liver Surgery and Liver Transplantation Center of West China Hospital between September 2020 and May 2022 were retrospectively collected. There were 53 males and 19 females, with an age of (55.5±12.9)years(range:42.6 to 68.4 years). Among them, 13 of the cases underwent laparoscopic anatomical liver resection(LALR) guided by tans-arterial ICG,43 of the cases received LAIR guided by portal vein negative ICG, and 16 of the cases received LALR positive by portal vein. Comparison among the three groups was performed by one-way ANOVA; and the rank sum test was used for comparison between groups. The counting data was expressed as percentage,and the χ2 test or Fisher's exact probability method was used for comparison between groups. Results: (1) Postoperative pathology: Resection R0 was achieved in all operations. The maximum tumor diameter of the patients in the arterial staining group, the reverse staining group, and the positive staining group(M (IQR)) was 2.5 (2.4) cm, 3.0 (2.5) cm and 3.0(2.4) cm,respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in the maximum tumor diameter between the three groups (P=0.364). The minimum tumor margin was 1.1 (1.1) cm, 1.0 (1.0) cm, 1.1 (1.6) cm in the the arterial staining group, reverse staining group and the positive staining group, respectively. There was no significant difference in the margin among the three groups (P=0.878). (2) Operation conditions: the operation time of the arterial staining group, the negative staining group, and the positive portal staining group was (348±93)minutes,(277±112)minutes,and (295±116)minutes,respectively. There were no significant differences in operation time among the three groups (P=0.134). The intraoperative blood loss of the three groups was 80(150)ml,200(350)ml,and 100(150)ml,respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in intraoperative bleeding volume between the three groups(P=0.743). All cases were not transfused during the operation and were not converted to laparotomy. ALT in the arterial staining group was higher than in the negative staining group in the first two days after the operation ((559±398)IU/L307(257) IU/L, q=235.5,P=0.004;(611±389)IU/L(331±242) IU/L, q=265.2, P=0.002). There was only one case of a grade III complication (Clavien-Dindo grading system) postoperative complication in the negative and positive staining group of the portal vein, respectively. Tumor markers in all patients decreased to the normal range after 2 months of operation. Conclusion: Laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy guided by ICG fluorescence through arterial staining and portal vein staining is safe and feasible for primary hepatocellular carcinoma treatment.

Objective:This study uses two markers of resting-state functional MRI (r-fMRI) to investigate changes in spontaneous neural activity and their correlation with postpartum depression (PPD) severity.Methods:A total of 15 individuals with PPD, who met the diagnostic criteria for DSM-5 unipolar depression, 24-Item Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD 24) scores greater than 20, Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) score≥12, and 16 postpartum healthy mothers (control group) matched with age and education were examined using r-fMRI. Two-sample t-test was used to compare the amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) and regional homogeneity (ReHo) values between groups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to determine the correlation between the ALFF and ReHo of the abnormal brain region and the HAMD 24 and EPDS scores. Results:Compared with the healthy control (HC), PPD showed increased ALFF in the right cerebellum anterior lobe culmen and the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), and decreased ALFF in the right parietal lobe (individual voxel P<0.005, cluster size >10 voxels, Alphasim correction). PPD had increased ReHo values in the left superior?frontal?gyrus,?orbital?part, inferior?frontal?gyrus,?orbital?part, middle?frontal?gyrus, precuneus, inferior?parietal lobule than HC. Decreased ReHo values were found in the right inferior?occipital?gyrus, inferior?frontal?gyrus, frontal lobule and left cerebellum inferior semi-lunar lobule (individual voxel P<0.005, cluster size>10 voxels, Alphasim correction). The ALFF value of the left DLPFC was positively correlated with the HAMD 24 score in PPD ( r=0.585, P=0.022). Age, body mass index and education years of each subject was included as covariates, partial correlation coefficient was still statistically significant ( r = 0.561, P = 0.046). Conclusion:This r-fMRI study suggested that changes in the spontaneous neural activity of these regions were related to emotional responses. PPD cases with high ALFF values in the left DLPFC had severe depression.

Objective To investigate the effects of different concentrations and adsorption methods of aluminum hydroxide adjuvant produced by different manufacturers on the immunogenicity of the diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis and inactivated poliovirus combined vaccine ( DTaP-sIPV) . Methods Five anti-gens of DTaP were adsorbed onto different concentrations (0. 42 mg/ml, 0. 47 mg/ml and 0. 52 mg/ml) of aluminum hydroxide from different manufacturers through sequential and separate adsorption. Adsorbability, anti-pertussis toxin ( PT)/filamentous hemagglutinin ( FHA)/pertactin ( PRN)/diphtheria toxoid ( DT)/tet-anus toxoid ( TT) antibodies and the potency of vaccines were detected. Results The adsorbability of alu-minum hydroxide adjuvant slightly decreased with the reduction of concentration. No significant difference in potency and antibody level was observed between sequential and separate adsorption. Moreover, no signifi-cant difference in antibody level was observed between vaccines prepared with aluminum hydroxide adjuvant produced by General Chemical Corp and our institute. Conclusion Aluminum hydroxide adjuvant produced by our institute at the concentration of 0. 52 mg/ml and separate adsorption method are suitable for prepara-tion of DTaP-sIPV.
