Objective To explore the imaging characteristics of lung cancers associated with cystic airspaces (LCCA) and the effects of different treatment regimens. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical and radiological data of LCCA patients who underwent surgical resection and pathological confirmation at the Department of Thoracic Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from 2016 to 2023. The relationship between various radiological classifications and clinical pathology was studied. Based on the postoperative adjuvant treatment follow-up results, the effects of different treatment regimens were analyzed. Results A total of 147 patients were included, including 90 males and 57 females, with a median age of 63 (55, 70) years. There were 21 patients of imaging typeⅠ, 50 patients of typeⅡ, 57 patients of type Ⅲ, and 19 patients of type Ⅳ. The lobulation sign or burr sign of typeⅠcyst walls (P=0.004), and intracystic septa (P=0.030) were more commonly seen in the high-aggressiveness group. The components of the cyst walls or nodules of types Ⅰ-Ⅳ in the high-aggressiveness group were mostly solid or sub-solid (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that subsolid cyst wall (OR=4.734, P=0.023), solid cyst wall (OR=97.972, P<0.001), and the lobulation sign or burr sign of the cyst wall (OR=13.215, P=0.024) were independent risk factors for aggressiveness. Fifty-eight patients received adjuvant therapy after surgery, including 22 in the chemotherapy group, 15 in the targeted therapy group, and 21 in the combined therapy group. The progression-free survival of the combined therapy group was better than the other two groups (P=0.045). Conclusion There is a correlation between the imaging features of LCCA and pathological aggressiveness. Compared to postoperative targeted therapy or chemotherapy alone, postoperative chemotherapy combined with targeted therapy can improve the progression-free survival of LCCA patients.

Drug resistance is one of the key factors affecting the effectiveness of cancer treatment methods, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy. Its occurrence is related to factors such as mRNA expression and methylation within cancer cells. If drug resistance in patients can be accurately identified early, doctors can devise more effective treatment plans, which is of great significance for improving patients' survival rates and quality of life. Cancer drug resistance prediction based on artificial intelligence (AI) technology has emerged as a current research hotspot, demonstrating promising application prospects in guiding clinical individualized and precise medication for cancer patients. This review aims to comprehensively summarize the research progress in utilizing AI algorithms to analyze multi-omics data including genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics, proteomics, metabolomics, radiomics, and histopathology, for predicting cancer drug resistance. It provides a detailed exposition of the processes involved in data processing and model construction, examines the current challenges faced in this field and future development directions, with the aim of better advancing the progress of precision medicine.

The HDAs (a subfamily of histone deacetylases), a class of Zn2+-dependent histone deacetylases, are highly homologous to the reduced potassium dependency 3 (RPD3) in yeast. HDAs extensively regulate chromosome stability, gene transcription, and protein activity by catalyzing the removal of acetyl group from histone and non-histone lysine residues. HDA-mediated deacetylation is essential for plant growth, development, and responses to abiotic stress. We review the research progress in HDAs regarding the discovery, structures, classification, deacetylation process, and roles in regulating plant responses to abiotic stress. Furthermore, this paper prospects the future research on HDAs, aiming to provide theoretical support for the research on epigenetic regulation mediated by HDAs.

Objective:To assess the efficacy of neoadjuvant treatment with PD-1 (programmed cell death protein 1) inhibitors combined with paclitaxel (albumin-conjugated) and cisplatin (TP regimen) for locally advanced hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma and laryngeal organ function preservation.Methods:Data of 53 patients, including 51 males and 2 females, aged 38-70 years old, who were diagnosed with locally advanced hypopharyngeal squamous carcinoma confirmed by histology and enhanced CT at the Cancer Prevention and Control Center of Sun Yat-sen University during the initial treatment from January 1, 2019 to January 15, 2023, were retrospectively analyzed. All patients received neoadjuvant therapy with PD-1 inhibitors combined with albumin-bound paclitaxel (260 mg/m 2) and cisplatin (60 mg/m 2) for 3 to 4 cycles. The main outcome measures were larynx dysfunction-free survival (LDFS), overall survival (OS), and progression-free survival (PFS). Survival curves were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox multifactorial analysis was further performed if Cox univariate analysis was statistically significant. Results:The overall efficiency was 90.6% (48/53). The 1-year and 2-year LDFS rates were 83.8% (95% CI: 74.0% to 94.8%) and 50.3% (95% CI: 22.1% to 91.6%), the 1-year and 2-year OS rates were 95.2% (95% CI: 88.9% to 100.0%) and 58.2% (95% CI: 25.6% to 81.8%), and the 1-year and 2-year PFS rates were 83.9% (95% CI: 74.2% to 94.9%) and 53.5% (95% CI: 32.1% to 89.1%). Adverse events associated with the neoadjuvant therapy were mainly myelosuppression (45.3%), gastrointestinal reactions (37.7%) and hypothyroidism (20.8%). Conclusion:The neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma using PD-1 inhibitors combined with paclitaxel and cisplatin can provide with a higher survival rate with a improved laryngeal organ function preservation rate.

Objective:To investigate the iodine nutritional status of pregnant women in Jilin Province and its correlation with the distribution characteristics of water iodine in external environment, providing a basis for scientific iodine supplementation and prevention of iodine deficiency disorders.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the iodine survey data of drinking water for residents in Jilin Province in 2017 and the monitoring data of iodine deficiency disorders in 2021. The water iodine, salt iodine, and urinary iodine level of pregnant women were analyzed.Results:In 8 866 water samples from 873 townships (streets, hereinafter referred to as townships) of 60 counties (cities, districts) in 9 cities (autonomous prefectures) throughout the province, the median of water iodine was 4.60 μg/L, ranging from 0.00 to 81.30 μg/L. Among them, there were 758 townships with a median water iodine < 10 μg/L, accounting for 86.83% (758/873); 107 townships with a water iodine of 10 - < 40 μg/L, accounting for 12.26% (107/873). The median salt iodine was 23.50 mg/kg in 6 000 household consumption salt samples. The iodized salt coverage rate, iodized salt qualified rate, and qualified iodized salt consumption rate were 99.50% (5 970/6 000), 97.30% (5 809/5 970), and 96.82% (5 809/6 000), respectively. The iodized salt coverage rate in 9 cities (autonomous prefectures) were > 95%, the iodized salt qualified rate and qualified iodized salt consumption rate were > 90%. The median urinary iodine in 6 000 pregnant women's urine samples was 169.05 μg/L. Except for Bayshan City, which was iodine-deficient, the other 8 cities (autonomous prefectures) were iodine-suitable. The results of correlation analysis showed that there was no correlation between the urinary iodine level of pregnant women and the distribution of water iodine in the external environmental at the municipal (autonomous prefecture) level ( r = 0.60, P = 0.089). Conclusions:Most townships in Jilin Province are iodine-deficient in the external environment, and there are no water-borne high iodine area. The iodized salt coverage rate, iodized salt qualified rate, and qualified iodized salt consumption rate all meet the national standards. The iodine nutrition of pregnant women is generally at a suitable level, but there are still some areas where pregnant women are iodine-deficient, and there is no correlation with the distribution of water iodine.
