Objective To observe the efficacy of hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy(HAIC)combined with lenvatinib for treating Barcelona clinic liver cancer(BCLC)stage B or C hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC),and to explore the impact factors of patients'survival time.Methods Data of 104 patients with BCLC stage B or C HCC were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into observation group(n=46,underwent HAIC combined with lenvatinib)and control group(n=58,underwent HAIC alone).The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of treatments,as well as patients'overall survival(OS)and progression free survival(PFS)were recorded and compared between groups.Cox regressions were used to explore the impact factors of patients'survival time.Results Three months and 6 months after HAIC,the results of modified response evaluation criteria in solid tumors(mRECIST)in observation group were both better than those in control group(both P＜0.05),while no significant difference was found between groups one year after HAIC(P＞0.05).The overall survival rate in observation group was higher than that in control group(P＜0.05),while there was no significant difference of progression free survival rate between groups(P＞0.05).The incidence of rash in observation group was higher than that in control group(P＜0.05).Multiple Cox regression showed prolonged OS in HCC patients in observation group(hazard ratio[HR]=0.425,95%CI[0.255,0.791])compared with that in control group.Compared with pre-treatment Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group(ECOG)score 1,AFP≥400 μg/ml,the number of tumor foci≥3 and BCLC stage C,pre-treatment ECOG score 0,AFP＜400 μg/ml,the number of tumor foci≤2 and BCLC stage B were all independent protective factors of OS in HCC patients(all P＜0.05).Conclusion HAIC combined with lenvatinib was safe and effective for treating BCLC stage B or C HCC.Pre-treatment ECOG score,serum AFP level,the number of tumor foci and BCLC stage were all independent impact factors of OS.

Objective:To investigate the value of flattening filter-free (FFF) mode in postoperative deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) intensigy-modulated radiotherapy for left breast cancer.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. Clinical data of 21 patients with left breast cancer who underwent DIBH intensity-modulated radiotherapy after modified radical surgery in Meizhou People's Hospital from January 2021 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. On the DIBH-mode CT of each patient, the 7-field intensity-modulation plan was designed using the plan developed in the 6 MV FFF-mode (FFF group) or the plan developed in the 6 MV flattening filter (FF)-mode (FF group). The target areas and organs at risk, dosimetric and biological parameters, and dose validation results were compared between the two plans.Results:Twenty-one patients were female with the age [ M ( Q1, Q3)] of 47 years old (32 years old, 61 years old). The percentage of target areas receiving 95% of the prescribed dose (V 95%) was (95.9±0.8)% and (95.7±1.9)% in the FF and FFF groups ( t = 2.98, P = 0.089), and the maximum dose was (5 401±251) cGy and (5 424±201) cGy ( t = 2.85, P = 0.181), the fitness indices were 0.88±0.05 and 0.87±0.06 ( t = 0.32, P = 0.562), the homogeneity indices were 1.06±0.01 and 1.07±0.02 ( t = 2.91, P = 0.009), the equivalent uniform doses (EUD) were (51.81±0.21) Gy and (51.97±0.20) Gy ( t = 0.51, P = 0.309), and the tumor control probability (TCP) was (99.68±0.01)% and (99.61±0.02)% ( t = 0.81, P = 0.560). The plans of the FFF group and the FF group were compliant, and the doses of all organs at risk to be irradiated were within the clinically acceptable range, and the radiation doses in the FFF group in the left lung [5 Gy irradiated volume (V 5 Gy), mean dose (D mean), EUD and normal tissue complication rate (NTCP)], right lung (V 5 Gy and D mean), heart (V 10 Gy, D mean, EUD and NTCP), and right breast (V 5 Gy, D mean and EUD) were differently lower than those in the FF group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The monitor units in the FFF and FF groups were (984±132) MU and (751±145) MU ( t = -1.25, P < 0.001), and the total beam-on time was (1.4±0.3) min and (2.2±0.4) min ( t = 0.68, P < 0.001); individual field beam-on time was (12±7) s and (16±10) s ( t = 2.68, P = 0.001), and the beam-on time for each field in patients of the FFF group was less than 25 s; γ pass rates were (97.1±2.8)% and (97.6±2.1)% ( t = 0.59, P = 0.484). Conclusions:In the intensity-modulated radiotherapy of left breast cancer, the radiation dose of the energy to the critical organs in FFF mode is lower and has higher dose rate and shorter treatment time. FFF combined with DIBH technique has positive clinical significance in the intensity-modulated radiotherapy of breast cancer.

Objective To investigate the effects and mechanisms of modified Taohong Siwu Decoction on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats based on transcriptome sequencing.Methods Totally 15 SPF rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group,model group and modified Taohong Siwu Decoction group,with 5 rats in each group.The modified Taohong Siwu Decoction group was pre-administered with modified Taohong Siwu Decoction by gavage for 5 days,while the sham-operation group and model group were given equal volume of distilled water by gavage,myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury rat model was established.The cardiac function of the rats was assessed using echocardiography,serum oxidative stress and inflammatory factor contents were detected using reagent kits,TUNEL staining was used to detect myocardial cell apoptosis,transcriptome sequencing was performed on myocardial tissue,and differential expression genes were analyzed using Venn diagram and heatmap.GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were performed on common differentially expressed genes.RT-qPCR was used to validate differentially expressed genes PTX3 and EGR2.Results Compared with the sham-operation group,the EF and FS of the model group rats significantly decreased(P<0.01),the cells apoptosis rate of myocardial tissue and serum LDH,TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 contents significantly increased(P<0.01),and SOD activity and IL-10 content significantly decreased(P<0.01).Compared with the model group,the modified Taohong Siwu Decoction group showed a significant increase in EF and FS(P<0.05),while the cell apoptosis rate of myocardial tissue and serum CK-MB,LDH,TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 contents significantly decreased(P<0.01),and SOD activity and IL-10 content significantly increased(P<0.01).Transcriptome sequencing revealed 4 227 differentially expressed genes(2 259 upregulated and 1 968 downregulated)between the sham-operation group and the model group,1 933 differentially expressed genes(1 301 upregulated and 632 downregulated)between the sham-operation group and the modified Taohong Siwu Decoction group,and 94 differentially expressed genes(46 upregulated and 48 downregulated)between the model group and the modified Taohong Siwu Decoction group.There were 35 common differential genes in the three groups,and the differential genes were mainly enriched in signaling pathways such as fluid shear stress and atherosclerosis,ubiquitin mediated proteolysis,C-type lectin receptor signaling pathway,sphingolipid signaling pathway,cell cycle,chemokine signaling pathway,lipid and atherosclerosis.RT-qPCR showed that gene expressions of PTX3 and EGR2 in myocardial tissue of the model group were significantly increased than that of the sham-operation group,and the gene expressions of PTX2 and EGR2 of modified Taohong Siwu Decoction group were significantly decreased than that of the model group(P<0.01).Conclusion Modified Taohong Siwu Decoction exhibits a certain protective effect against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats,characterized by improvements in rat cardiac function,reduction in cell apoptosis and inflammatory cytokine release,as well as alleviation of oxidative stress levels.The mechanism may be related to the regulation of PTX3 and EGR2 gene expression.

expression of NR2B.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the pathogenesis of erythrocytosis by detecting the key enzymes of glucose metabolism and glucose transporter in bone marrow erythrocytes of chronic mountain sickness (CMS), and analyzing its correlation with hemoglobin. METHODS: Twenty CMS patients hospitalized in Qinghai Provincial People's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were selected as CMS group. Twenty males with leukocyte count > 3.5×10⁹/L who had accepted bone marrow aspiration and had normal result were taken as control group. The mRNA and protein expression of key enzymes and glucose transporter in glucose metabolism in bone marrow CD71⁺ erythrocytes were detected by real time qPCR and Western blot, respectively. Glucose, lactic acid and 2,3-diphosphoglycerate in the bone marrow supernatant and serum were tested by ELISA. The mRNA and protein expression of key enzymes and glucose transporter, glucose, lactic acid and 2,3-diphosphoglycerate of the two groups were compared. Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlation between key enzymes, glucose transporter in glucose metabolism in bone marrow CD71⁺ erythrocytes and hemoglobin. RESULTS: The expression of HK2, GLUT1 and GLUT2 mRNA in the CMS group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.001), while the expression of HK1, OGDH and COX5B mRNA were not different. The expression of HK2, GLUT1 and GLUT2 protein in the CMS group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The levels of glucose and lactic acid in the bone marrow supernatant and serum in the CMS group were not different from those in the control group, while the level of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate was higher (P<0.001). Both HK2 and GLUT2 proteins were positively correlated with hemoglobin (r=0.511, 0.717). CONCLUSION CMS patients may increase glycolysis by increasing the expression of HK2, and promote the utilization of glucose through high expression of GLUT1 and GLUT2 to meet the need of energy supply.

Objective:We aimed to explore a colorectal cancer risk prediction model through machine learning algorithm based on the big data in laboratory medicine.Methods:According to the labeling of colonoscopy combined with pathology or referring to the ICD-10 code, the colonoscopy patients in Shanghai Changhai Hospital from 2013.1.1 to 2019.6.30 and the outpatients and inpatients from 2010.1.1 to 2019.6.30 were divided into colorectal cancer groups and non-colorectal cancer group. Four machine learning algorithms, Extreme gradient boosting(Xgboost),Artificial Neural Network(ANN),Support Vector Machine(SVM),Random Forest(RF), are used to mine all routine laboratory test item data of the enrolled patients, select model features and establish a classification model for colorectal cancer. And the effectiveness of the model was prospectively verified in patients in the whole hospital of Changhai Hospital from 2019.7.1 to 2020.8.31.Result:A colorectal cancer risk prediction model (CRC-Lab7) including 7 characteristics of fecal occult blood, carcinoembryonic antigen, red blood cell distribution width, lymphocyte count, albumin/globulin, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and hepatitis B virus core antibody was constructed by the XgBoost algorithm. The AUC of the model in the validation set and prospective validation set were 0.799 and 0.816, respectively, which was significantly higher than that of fecal occult blood (AUC was 0.68 and 0.706, respectively). It also has high diagnostic accuracy for colorectal cancer with negative fecal occult blood or under 50 years old.Conclusion:In this study, a colorectal cancer risk prediction model was established by mining routine laboratory big data. The model′s performance is better than fecal occult blood, and it has high diagnostic accuracy for colorectal cancer in patients with negative fecal occult blood and younger than 50 years old.

Objectives:To explore the value of heparin-binding protein (HBP) in the diagnosis and prognosis of patients with respiratory viral infections.Methods:The patients who were admitted to Emergency Department of Nanjing Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from November 2018 to November 2020 were selected as the viral infection group, and the non-infected patients admitted in the same period as the non-viral infection group. Data of all patients’ general clinical information, peripheral white blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), and HBP in 24 h were collected. The differences in various indicators were compared between the two groups of patients, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn, and the diagnostic value of each indicator for patients with respiratory virus infection were evaluated. The prognostic indicators such as sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score within 24 h were recorded, and duration of ICU stay, antiviral treatment, ventilator and vasoactive agents to total length of hospital stay of patients in the viral infection group were calculated. The Spearman correlation analysis of HBP and the above indicators was performed to determine the prognostic value of HBP in patients with respiratory virus infections.Results:A total of 106 patients were included in the viral infection group, and 107 in the non-viral infection group. There were no significant differences in sex, age, and body mass index (BMI) between the two groups of patients (P>0.05). Compared with the non-viral infection group, the serum CRP and HBP of the viral infection group were significantly higher (P<0.05), while the WBC and NLR levels were significantly lower (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in PCT between the two groups (P>0.05). HBP had the best diagnosis efficiency for respiratory viral infections, the areas under the ROC was 0.895, the optimal cut-off point was 13.625 μg/L, the sensitivity was 92.50% and the specificity was 76.60%. Correlation analysis showed that serum HBP levels within 24 h in the viral infection group were positively correlated with SOFA score and APACHEⅡ score in 24 h after admission (r = 0.756, P<0.05; r = 0.747, P<0.05). In the viral infection group, duration of ICU stay, antiviral treatment, and ventilator and vasoactive agents to total length of hospital stay were also positively correlated with serum HBP level (r = 0.873, 0.748, 0.830, and 0.794, P<0.05).Conclusions:HBP can be used as a favorable diagnostic indicator for patients with respiratory virus infections and has a good evaluation value for the prognosis.
