[Purpose]To analyze the incidence and mortality of liver cancer in Fusui County of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in 2019 and the trend of change from 201 1 to 2019.[Meth-ods]Based on the incidence and mortality data of liver cancer in Fusui County from 2011 to 2019,the crude incidence rate,crude mortality rate,age-standardized rate by Chinese standard population(ASIRC/ASMRC),age-standardized rate by world standard population(ASMRW/ASM-RW),disability-adjusted life years(DALY),years of life lost(YLL),years of lived with disability(YLD)were calculated.The Joinpoint linear regression model was used to calculate the average annual percentage change(AAPC)of the ASIRC/ASMRC and DALY rate of liver cancer in Fusui County from 2011 to 2019.[Results]In 2019,there were 345 new cases and 298 deaths of liver cancer in Fusui County,accounting for 28.49%and 35.86%of all new cases and death cases of malignant tumors in Fusui County,respectively.The crude incidence rate,ASIRC and ASIRW were 74.71/105,67.55/105 and 65.63/105,respectively;the crude mortality rate,ASMRC and ASMRW were 64.53/105,58.78/105 and 56.88/105,respectively.In 2019,ASIRC/ASMRC of men were higher than those of women(105.32/105 and 95.67/105 for men;27.26/105 and 19.11/105 for women).The peak incidence and mortality rates were in the 65~69 and 80~84 age groups,re-spectively.The incidence rate of liver cancer in Fusui County declined from 82.50/105 in 2011 to 67.55/105 in 2019,with an AAPC of-3.01%(P=0.024),but the mortality rate did not have sig-nificant changes(AAPC=-1.44%,P=0.224).The rate of DALY decreased from 14.51/105 to 10.36/105,with an AAPC of-2.82%(P=0.050).[Conclusion]The incidence rate and DALY rate of liv-er cancer in Fusui County showed an overall decreasing trend from 2011 to 2019,but still re-mained at a high level.It is necessary to further strengthen the prevention,screening and early treatment of liver cancer in this region,especially for men and the elderly.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of improving liver injury by enhancing the abundance of Akkermansia mu-ciniphila(AKK bacteria)with hepatocyte-specific Yap1 knockout during PD-1 monoclonal antibody treatment.Methods:Hepatocyte-specific Yap1 knockout mice(genotype Yap1Flox/Flox;albumin-Cre,labeled as Yap1LKO)and control mice(genotype Yap1Flox/Flox,labeled Yap1Flox),aristolocholic acidⅠ(AAⅠ)and CCl4 were used to induce liver injury,Yap1LKO mice and Yap1Flox mice were randomly di-vided into control group and PD-1 monoclonal antibody group.After the intervention,real-time PCR detected changes in the abun-dance of AKK bacteria in the fecal microbial DNA of mice,16S rRNA gene sequencing further analyzes intestinal flora changes,the livers of mice were made into wax blocks for HE staining to observe the histopathological changes of the liver.Results:Yap1Flox mice exhibited balloon-like edema degeneration of hepatocytes and infiltration of inflammatory factors in the manifold area,compared with Yap1Flox mice,Yap1LKO mice had reduced the abundance of AKK bacteria in the intestine,fibrosis of the liver,and the degree of dam-age was more serious;PD-1 monoclonal antibody treatment alone did not increase the abundance of AKK bacteria in the intestines of mice,and fibrosis appeared in the liver;however,the abundance of intestinal AKK bacteria in Yap1LKO mice treated with PD-1 mono-clonal antibody increased,the ratio(F/B value)of Firmicutes to Bacteroides at the phylum level decreased,and the morphology of he-patocytes returned to normal and the degree of liver damage decreased.Conclusion:In AAⅠ and CCl4 induced liver injury mice,he-patocyte-specific Yap1 knockout reduced the abundance of AKK bacteria in the intestine,and the degree of liver injury was more se-vere than that in Yap1Flox mice.When treated with PD-1 monoclonal antibody,hepatocyte-specific Yap1 knockout could increase the abundance of AKK bacteria in the intestine,change the composition of intestinal flora,maintain intestinal homeostasis and ameliorate liver injury.

Taking chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) as an example, the frontier technologies in data science have been introduced into the inheritance, innovation and development of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), providing reference for conducting real-world clinical research on specialized diseases of TCM. This paper put forward the construction of CAG data science system by elaborating the connotation of data science and its application value in TCM, and discussed the path to build CAG data science system, namely through "data acquisition-knowledge expression-knowledge reasoning" to establish CAG database, knowledge base and develop diagnosis platform differentiating diseases and syndromes. Besides, this paper analyzed the prospects of CAG data science in improving data governance ability and knowledge discovery efficiency, deepening the level of knowledge sharing, promoting interdisciplinary integration, and strengthening the integration process of industry, academia and research.

ObjectiveTo construct traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) diagnostic scale of turbid toxin syndrome in order to provide corresponding reference for the standardization of TCM syndromes and studies. MethodsWe systematically searched the Chinese Medical Dictionary (CMD), China Knowledge Network (CNKI), Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform (WF) and VIP database for TCM classics and modern literature on turbid toxin syndrome, and initially screened the four diagnosis information of turbid toxin syndrome, established a pool of information entries, and conducted a cross-sectional clinical survey. Discrete trend method, correlation coefficient method, Cronbach's coefficient method, and factor analysis method were applied to objectively screen the entries. The diagnostic scale of turbid toxin syndrome were constructed through three rounds of Delphi method expert survey to determine the scale entries, using hierarchical analysis to get the judgement matrix scores and relative weight of each entry, after passing consistency test and then isometric expansion of the relative weight of the entries to get the weight of each entry and assign the value. ResultsA total of 35 articles were included, 45 entries were obtained after the initial screening. After the clinical investigation, 12 entries were not suitable by the discrete trend method, 23 entries not suitable by correlation coefficient method, 13 entries by the internal consistency screening were removed with the Cronbach's alpha coefficient rising, and 10 entries not suitable by the factor analysis method. Twenty-two entries were retained after objective screening by the combined use of the four statistical methods. The positive coefficients of experts in the three rounds of Delphi method of expert consultation were 96.67%, the coefficients of expert authority were 0.834, 0.856, and 0.867, and the coefficients of co-ordination were 0.126, 0.326, and 0.312, respectively. After consulting with clinical experts, and three rounds of Delphi method survey and hierarchical analysis method weight assignment, the diagnostic scale entries of turbid toxin syndrome were finally established. Primary symptoms: dark red or purple and dusky tongue, yellowish greasy or dry coating (10 points); sticky and unpleasant stools (8 points); disharmony of tastes including halitosis, sticky and greasy taste in the mouth, dry mouth and bitter taste in the mouth (6 points); unfavourable or yellowish or red urination (5 points); and dark complexion (4 points). Secondary symptoms: heavy body (3 points); dizziness (3 points); profuse, sticky, foul-smelling secretions (2 points); wiry and slippery, or slippery, or slippery and rapid pulse (2 points); feeling of hardness in the abdomen (1 point). ConclusionUsing Delphi method combined with the hierarchical analysis method, combining qualitative and quantitative study, a diagnostic scale of turbid toxin syndrome was initially developed.
