Purpose To explore the key molecules mechanisms underlying the selective activation of macrophage and the regulation of Dicer expression induced by glioblastoma(GBM)cells,as well as its prognostic significance.Methods Glioblastoma conditional medium(GCM)was fractionated by molecular weight using ultrafiltration.Specif-ic molecular weight components of GCM that upregulate Dicer expression in mouse bone marrow derived macrophages(BMDMs)were identified.Secreted proteins were identified by mass spectrometry(MS).The correlation between candidate proteins and GBM prognosis was analyzed using the TCGA and CGGA database.In vitro experiments of the candidate proteins on Dicer expression in BMDMs were further carried out.Results GCM components with a molecu-lar weight of>50 kDa significantly upregulated Dicer expression in BMDMs.MS identified five key secreted proteins:Prg4,Psap,Hexa,Aebp1,and Itih2.High expression of Prg4 was significantly positively correlated with poor progno-sis in GBM patients(P<0.001)and was associated with the expression of selective macrophage activation markers.Recombinant Prg4 protein stimulated BMDMs and induced Dicer expression in mouse BMDMs.Conclusion This study reveals that glioma cells induce Dicer expression in macrophages by secreting Prg4,providing a theoretical basis for GBM therapeutic strategies targeting the Prg4-Dicer axis.

Oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMD) refer to a group of diseases occurring on the oral mucosa that harbor the potential to progress into oral squamous cell carcinoma, including oral leukoplakia, oral erythroplakia, discoid lupus erythematosus of the oral mucosa, oral submucous fibrosis, oral lichen planus, actinic cheilitis, etc. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one type of diseases characterized by chronic hyperglycemia, with a high incidence and mortality rate worldwide. Hyperglycemia is the characteristic metabolic change in DM patients and those in the pre-diabetic stage, playing a determinative role in many complications related to DM. A number of clinical studies had revealed an association between hyperglycemia and OPMD, as well as its malignant transformation. This article will review the potential regulatory effects and mechanisms of high glucose states, such as diabetes, on OPMD, and assess the correlation between hyperglycemia and the malignant transformation of OPMD.

The strategy of pelvic lymph node dissection in patients with localized intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer(PCa)has been one of the research hotspots in recent years. This review synthesizes recent progress in clinical,diagnostic imaging and immunological aspects of pelvic lymph node dissection.It is found that the detection rate of metastatic lymph nodes in patients with localized intermediate-risk PCa is relatively low,and the survival benefit after dissection is not significant. PSMA PET/CT examination can be used instead of lymph node dissection for staging. Extended lymph node dissection in patients with localized high-risk PCa can achieve a higher detection rate of metastatic lymph nodes and possible survival benefits. However,excessive lymph node dissection can weaken the response ability to immunotherapy. The strategy for pelvic lymph node dissection in patients with localized intermediate-high-risk PCa needs further study.

Adriamycin is a widely used anti-tumor drug.Targeting mitochondrial fusion proteins/mitofusion 1/2(MFN1/2)and nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2(NRF2)can up-regulate the expression of mitochondrial fusion protein through PKCε/Stat3/MFN2,SIRT1/MFN2,AMPK/NRF2 and other signaling pathways,promote mitochondrial fusion,maintain kinetic balance and protect mitochondrial function,reduce myocardial cell apoptosis and reduce cardiac toxicity.Understanding the regulatory role and mechanism of mitochondrial fusion in doxorubicin-induced cardio toxicity will provide new strategies for the prevention and treatment of diseases.

Objective To develop a basic competency assessment scale for generalist nurse in palliative care and test its reliability and validity.Methods The pre-test scale items pool was formed after literature review,internal discussion in the group,consultation with experts and small sample pre-survey. From January to March 2021,the pre-test scale was used to investigate 1000 nurses in various wards including internal medicine,surgery,emergency,obstetrics and gynaecology,and intensive care units.The results were analyzed by SPSS software and AMOS software to undertake item analysis,exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis to develop the final scale.Results Five common factors and 37 entries were identified by factor analysis and explained 71.031% of the total variance.The Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.953,the split-half reliability and the test-retest reliability of the scale was 0.772 and 0.963.The confirmatory factor analysis model fitted well,with x2/df=2.57,root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA)=0.059,comparative fit index (CFI)=0.909,incremental fit index(IFI)=0.910,and Tucker-Lewis index(TLI)=0.901.Conclusion Our developed basic competency assessment scale for generalist nurse in palliative care has good reliability and validity,and can be used to evaluate the basic competency of palliative care for generalist nurses.
