In recent years, with the continuous progress of medical technology, the survival rate of cancer patients after treatment has been continuously improved, and more and more young cancer patients begin to pay attention to the fertility problem after survival. For prepubertal or adolescent cancer patients who require urgent chemoradiotherapy, and for reproductive female patients, ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) follows by transplantation is the only option to preserve their fertility at present. Although the OTC technology has been carried out as a routine clinical project in a few medical institutions in China, it is still in the stage of clinical trial research in majority medical institutions. There are still many technical and ethical challenges in clinical practice of OTC technology. Therefore, this paper discussed the ethical principles that should be followed in clinical practice of human OTC and transplantation, and briefly analyzed the corresponding ethical issues. When implementing this technology, the indications should be followed strictly, the wishes of patients should be respected and true and full informed consent should be obtained while ensuring that the cancer treatment of patients is not delayed. Besides, it is significants to accumulate enough experience for minor patients to fully protect their rights and interests and promote the construction of relevant national laws and regulations.

BACKGROUND:Atlantoaxial dislocation is often facilitated by interlaminar bone grafting.However,there are relatively few reports on the treatment of complex atlantoaxial dislocation with posterior atlantoaxial lateral mass interarticular release and fusion. OBJECTIVE:To explore the safety and effectiveness of atlantoaxial dislocation treated by simple posterior atlantoaxial lateral block interarticular release and fusion. METHODS:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 30 patients with atlantoaxial dislocation who were treated from January 2017 to July 2021,all of whom suffered from reducible atlantoaxial dislocation.Posterior atlantoaxial lateral mass interarticular release and fusion were performed in all patients.During the surgery,patented instruments were used to release the atlantoaxial lateral mass joint,and posterior screw reduction and fixation were used with bone grafting in the lateral mass joint space.The postoperative follow-up period was 6 to 24 months,mean(13.0±5.4)months.During the follow-up period,cervical MRI was reviewed to observe the decompression of the upper cervical spine.X-ray films and CT scans were reviewed to observe the reduction of the upper cervical spine,as well as the internal fixation for looseness and breakage.CT scans were reviewed to assess interlateral block implant fusion.The Japanese Orthopaedic Association score was used to evaluate the improvement of spinal cord function.The neck disability index and the quality of life scale were used to assess the improvement of daily life function.The atlanto-anterior interspace and atlanto-planar spinal effective space were used to evaluate atlantoaxial repositioning and decompression. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The surgery of 30 patients went smoothly,and no serious complications such as spinal nerve and vertebral artery injuries occurred during the operation.Postoperative review of cervical MRI showed that the spinal cord compression was lifted.X-ray film and CT showed that the atlanto-anterior gap was significantly reduced;the effective space of atlantoaxial spinal cord was significantly increased,and neurological dysfunctional symptoms were significantly reduced.(2)During the follow-up period,X-ray film and CT showed that the internal fixation was solid;no broken nails or rods occurred,and there was no recurrence of atlantoaxial dislocation.(3)The Japanese Orthopaedic Association scores,neck disability index,and quality of life scores were significantly improved at the last follow-up compared with the preoperative period(P<0.05).The average improvement rate of Japanese Orthopaedic Association scores at the last follow-up was 73.1%.The average neck disability index was 8.80%.All of the patients had a continuous bone-scalp connection between atlantoaxial lateral block joints to achieve osseous fusion.(4)These findings indicate that the use of simple posterior atlantoaxial lateral block interarticular release and fusion for the treatment of atlantoaxial dislocation can significantly increase the fusion rate and shorten the fusion time.

Objective To investigate the regulatory mechanism of apurnic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1(APE1)in the transformation of chronic intestinal inflammation to colitis-associated colorectal cancer(CAC).Methods C64S mutant(APE1C64S)mice and APE1 wild type(APE1WT)mice were randomly divided into experimental group and control group.In vivo CAC model was established by azoxymethane(AOM)and dextran sulfate sodium salt(DSS)solution.Immunohistochemistry(IHC)and multiple IHC(mIHC)assays were used to observe the expression of APE1 and immune cell infiltration in colon tissues of each group.A mouse colon cancer cell line MC38 with stable knockdown of APE1 was constructed by lentivirus transfection,and subcutaneous tumor bearing experiments were performed in APE1WT and APE1C64S mice to confirm that tumor cell-derived APE1 caused immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment.The expression of APE1 and CXCL1[chemokine(C-X-C motif)ligand 1]and the infiltration of immune cells in tumor-bearing specimens were analyzed by IHC and mIHC assays.The tumor specimens of a 28-year-old female patient with CAC from Army Medical Center of PLA were analyzed for the expression of APE1 and CXCL1 and the infiltration of immune cells in the tumor and adjacent inflammatory tissues by IHC and mIHC assays.Results Compared with the control group and APE1WT erperimental group,APE1C64S erperimental group had significantly reduced disease activity index and tumor formation,polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cells(PMN-MDSCs)infiltration,and CD4+and CD8+T cells(P＜0.05).No significant differences were observed in tumor growth and immune cells between APE1WT and APE 1C64S mice bearing subcutaneous tumors.However,in the tumor-bearing experiment using tumor cells with knockdown of APE1,the tumor growth was significantly lower and the number of infiltrated PMN-MDSCs was reduced,while those of CD4+and CD8+T cells were significantly increased(P＜0.05).Furthermore,high expression of APE1 and increased infiltration of PMN-MDSCs were found in the tumor tissues of the young CAC patient,and CD8+T cells were significantly reduced in the tumor tissues compared with the inflammatory tissues(P＜0.05).Conclusion APE1-redox in tumor cells can promote the infiltration of PMN-MDSCs and reduce the number of T cells,thereby forming an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and mediating the occurrence and development of CAC.

Objective To explore the relationship between the expression of lncRNA MGP-AS2 in bladder cancer tissues and the survival of bladder cancer patients,and to study the impact of MGP-AS2 on the biological function of bladder cancer cells and possible mechanism.Methods The TANRIC database was used to analyze MGP-AS2 expression level in bladder cancer tissues and its relation-ship with patient survival.Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)was used to detect the expression level of MGP-AS2 in bladder cancer cell lines.The MGP-AS2 overexpression plasmid and negative control(NC)plasmid were transfected into bladder cancer 5637 cells,respectively,as the MGP-AS2group and NC group.Plate cloning experiment,cell scratch experiment and Tr-answell experiment were used to analyze the effects of MGP-AS2 overexpression on the proliferation,migration and invasion of bladder cancer 5637 cells.Dual-luciferase reporter gene experiment was used to verify the targeted binding between MGP-AS2 and miR-18a.The TANRIC database was used to analyze the correlation between MGP-AS2 and miR-18a expression.RT-qPCR method was used to analyze the effect of MGP-AS2 overexpression on the expression of miR-18a in bladder cancer 5637 cells.Western blot method was used to detect the effect of MGP-AS2 overexpression on the expression of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway proteins in bladder cancer 5637 cells.Results The expression level of MGP-AS2 in bladder cancer tissue was significantly lower than that in normal bladder tis-sues(P＜0.01).The overall survival and disease-free survival of patients with high expression of MGP-AS2 were significantly longer than those of patients with low expression of MGP-AS2(P＜0.01).The expression level of MGP-AS2 in bladder cancer cell lines were lower than those in SV-HUC-1 cells(P＜0.05).The bladder cancer cells with the lowest MGP-AS2 expression was 5637 cells(P＜0.01).Compared with the NC group,overexpression of MGP-AS2 could significantly inhibit the proliferation,migration and invasion a-bility of 5637 cells(P＜0.01).Dual-luciferase reporter gene experiment confirmed that MGP-AS2 could target and bind to miR-18a(P＜0.01).Compared with the NC group,overexpression of MGP-AS2 could downregulate the expression of miR-18a(P＜0.01).After overexpression of MGP-AS2,Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway proteins were all down-regulated in bladder cancer 5637 cells(P＜0.01).Conclusion MGP-AS2 is low-expressed in bladder cancer,and the expression level of MGP-AS2 is correlated with the prognosis of bladder cancer patients.MGP-AS2 may inhibit the transduction of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway by adsorbing miR-18a,thereby inhibiting the progression of bladder cancer.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) under enhanced regional and conventional anesthesia for multisegmental acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar fractures (m-ASOTLF).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the data of 91 patients with m-ASOTLF who were admitted to Honghui Hospital of Xi′an Jiaotong University from January 2021 to December 2022, including 36 males and 55 females, aged 55-80 years [(67.4±7.3)years]. According to American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification system, 18 patients were classified as grade I, 52 grade II, and 21 grade III. Injured segments included T 6-T 10 in 23 patients, T 11-L 2 in 47 and L 3-L 5 in 21. All the patients were treated with PVP, among whom 45 were given enhanced regional anesthesia (enhanced anesthesia group) and 46 regional conventional anesthesia (conventional anesthesia group). The following indicators were compared between the two groups: the operation time, intraoperative bleeding, intraoperative heart rate, intraoperative mean arterial pressure (MAP), number of intraoperative fluoroscopies, and total amount of bone cement injected; the visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry dysfunction index (ODI) before surgery, at 1 day, 1 month after surgery and at the last follow-up; the mini-mental state examination (MMSE) before surgery, at 1, 6, and 12 hours after surgery; the anterior vertebrae height (AVH), middle vertebrae height (MVH), and vertebral kyphosis angle (VKA) before and at 1 day after surgery; the incidence of complications such as bone cement leakage. Results:All the patients were followed up for 12-20 months [(15.8±2.6)months]. There were no significant differences between the two groups in the operation time, intraoperative bleeding, intraoperative heart rate, intraoperative MAP, number of intraoperative fluoroscopies or total amount of bone cement injected ( P>0.05). No significant differences were found between the two groups in VAS or ODI before surgery and at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). The VAS scores in the enhanced anesthesia group were (2.5±0.4)points and (1.8±0.3)points at 1 day and 1 month postoperatively respectively, which were both lower than (3.5±0.4)points and (2.0±0.5)points in the conventional anesthesia group ( P<0.01). The ODI values in the enhanced anesthesia group were 39.8±3.3 and 26.5±5.0 at 1 day and 1 month postoperatively respectively, which were both lower than 43.8±7.5 and 30.3±6.4 in the conventional anesthesia group ( P<0.01). The VAS and ODI at all postoperative time points decreased in both groups compared with those before surgery, with significant differences among those at all postoperative time points ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the MMSE scores before, at 1, 6, and 12 hours after surgery ( P>0.05). The MMSE scores at 1 and 6 hours postoperatively were lower than that preoperatively in both groups ( P<0.05), and it was increased at 6 hours compared with that at 1 hour postoperatively ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the MMSE scores at 12 hours postoperatively and preoperatively in both groups ( P>0.05). The differences between the two groups in AVH, MVH, or VKA preoperatively were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The AVH and MVH at 1 day postoperatively in the enhanced anesthesia group were (22.4±4.2)mm and (22.7±3.7)mm respectively, which were both higher than those in the conventional anesthesia group [(19.3±3.7)mm and (20.1±6.3)mm] ( P<0.05 or 0.01); the VKA at 1 day postoperatively in the enhanced anesthesia group was (13.9±3.7)°, which was lower than that in the conventional anesthesia group (15.8±4.1)° ( P<0.05). The AVH, MVH, and VKA in both groups were all improved at 1 day postoperatively compared with those preoperatively ( P<0.05). The incidence of bone cement leakage in the enhanced anesthesia group was 6.7% (3/45), which was lower than 21.7% (10/46) in the conventional anesthesia group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with conventional regional anesthesia, PVP under enhanced regional anesthesia for m-ASOTLF has more advantages in early postoperative pain relief, improvement of spinal function, restoration of vertebral height and reduction of bone cement leakage.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of cervical decompression performed at different times in the treatment of incomplete cervical spinal cord injury.Methods:A multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 96 patients with incomplete cervical spinal cord injury admitted to six hospitals including Honghui Hospital affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University, etc, from May 2018 to May 2021. There were 36 females and 60 males, aged 28-42 years [(35.2±6.7)years]. The injured segments were at C 3 in 7 patients, C 4 in 15, C 5 in 20, C 6 in 23 and C 7 in 31.

The intraoperative blood loss and postoperative drainage volume in the early group were (312.5±5.2)ml and (165.3±45.8)ml, which were higher than those in the late group [(253.5±40.0)ml, (120.4±60.6)ml] and the delayed group [(267.3±36.8)ml and (130.4±38.6)ml] (all P<0.01). There was no significant difference between the late group and the delayed group (all P>0.05). The length of hospital stay in the early group was (5.2±1.6)days, which was shorter than that in the late group [(7.6±2.3)days] and the delayed group [(8.0±1.3)days] (all P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the late group and the delayed group ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the Cobb angle, height of intervertebral space and space occupation of the spinal canal among the three groups before and at postoperative 3 days (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the ASIA score, ASIA motor score, ASIA light tactile score, ASIA acupuncture sensation score, VAS score, JOA score and NDI among the three groups before surgery (all P>0.05). At postoperative 3 months, 1 year and at the last follow-up, the ASIA grading of the early group was better than that of the late group and the delayed group ( P<0.05 or 0.01), but there was no statistically significant difference between the late group and the delayed group (all P>0.05). The ASIA motor scores of the early group were (56.4±4.5)points, (76.3±3.6)points and (85.4±6.5)points at postoperative 3 months, postoperative 1 year and the last follow-up, respectively, which were higher than those in the late group [(52.3±2.4)points, (60.3±8.6)points and (72.3±2.4)points] and the delayed group [(51.9±2.3)points, (62.8±4.6)points and (71.9±1.3)points]; the ASIA light tactile scores of the early group were (70.2±2.9)points, (72.6±4.3)points and (78.3±2.3)points, which were higher than those in the late group [(66.2±3.7)points, (68.3±1.6)points and (73.3±1.6)points] and the delayed group [(65.2±2.1)points, (67.8±1.9)points and (72.3±2.5)points]; acupuncture sensation scores of the early group were (71.9±3.1)points, (80.1±3.8)points and (89.1±7.6)points, which were higher than those in the late group [(67.4±2.7)points, (72.6±3.7)points and (77.9±1.8)points] and the delayed group [(68.3±2.2)points, (72.6±3.1)points and (77.2±1.9)points] (all P<0.05). VAS scores of the early group at postoperative 3 months, 1 year and at the last follow-up were (4.3±0.6)points, (2.4±0.3)points and (1.6±0.2)points, which were lower than those in the late group [(5.1±1.3)points, (4.1±0.6)points and (3.0±0.6)points] and the delayed group [(5.0±1.7)points, (4.0±0.8)points and (3.1±0.2)points]; JOA scores of the early group were (12.8±1.6)points, (14.4±2.6)points and (17.9±3.3)points, which were higher than those in the late group [(11.9±1.9)points, (13.3±1.6)points and (8.9±1.3)points] and the delayed group [(11.6±1.8)points, (13.2±1.4)points and (9.3±2.1)points]; NDI scores of the early group were 12.1±3.3, 10.1±2.1 and 7.3±1.4, which were lower than those in the late group (14.4±3.1, 12.3±1.6 and 8.9±1.3) and the delayed group (14.1±2.3, 12.9±1.9 and 9.5±2.1) (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in all the above-mentioned scores at postoperative 3 months, 1 year and at the last follow-up between the late group and the delayed group (all P>0.05). The incidence of complications was 25.0% (9/36) in the early group, 27.3% (9/33) in the late group and 37.0% (10/27) in the delayed group (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with within 24-72 hours and 4-14 days after injury, cervical decompression performed within 24 hours after injury for patients with incomplete cervical spinal cord injury can shorten the length of hospital stay, improve the function of the spinal cord nerves and relieve pain, with no increase of the incidence of complications.

The discussion and research on the clinical dominant diseases of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） have attracted increasing attention. Through approaches including modern technology， evidence-based medical methods， and multi-disciplinary treatment， we should construct a sound TCM inheritance and innovation system， establish a collaborative innovation mechanism， and integrate major research projects， striving to make breakthroughs in TCM theory， methodology， standards， and regulation system， promoting the scientific and technological progress of TCM， and thereby improving its curative effect. The China Association of Chinese Medicine （CACM） carried out a series of youth salon seminars for clinical dominant diseases in TCM， discussing and sorting out the advantages of the dominant diseases in clinical diagnosis and treatment of TCM and integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine in specific diseases or fields. Authoritative experts in the industry were invited to give comment and guidance to form a report. Centering on clinical research of dominant diseases， thematic research was carried out in the aspects of practice， human experience-based evidence， and transformation path. Through the systematic study of the dominant diseases， the advantages of TCM in different stages of disease treatment were excavated to constantly improve the prevention and treatment ability of TCM and carry forward the advancement of TCM theory and practice. At the same time， the communication and understanding between traditional Chinese and western medicine were improved， laying the foundation for the further formation of industry guidelines or consensus and comprehensive promotion. These seminars are expected to provide references for the development of policy planning， clinical diagnosis and treatment， health economy， and social services in TCM and lay the foundation for the formation of a new modern diagnosis and treatment system with Chinese characteristics.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacies of O-arm combined with CT three-dimensional navigation system assisted screw placement versus manual screw placement in treating lower cervical fracture and dislocation.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was used to analyze the clinical data of 41 patients with lower cervical fracture and dislocation, who were treated in Honghui Hospital, Xi′an Jiaotong University from May 2021 to February 2022. The patients included 26 males and 15 females, aged 31.5-48.6 years [(41.5±15.0)years]. The injured segments were C 3 in 3 patients, C 4 in 12, C 5 in 13, C 6 in 10 and C 7 in 3. Nineteen patients were treated with cervical pedicle screws by O-shaped arm combined with CT three-dimensional navigation system (navigation group, 76 screws) and 22 by bare hands (traditional group, 88 screws). The total operation time, effective operation time, single nail placement time, single screw correction times, screw distance from anterior cortex, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative fluoroscopic radiation dose, incision length and length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups, and the height of intervertebral space, Cobb angle, interbody slip distance and American Spinal injury Association (ASIA) grade were compared before operation and at 3 days after operation. Visual analogue score (VAS), Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score, and neck dysfunction index (NDI) were evaluated before operation, at 3 days, 3 months after operation and at the last follow-up. Accuracy of screw placement and incidence of complications (adjacent facet joint invasion, infection, screw loosening) were detected as well. Results:All the patients were followed up for 11.1-13.9 months [(12.5±1.4)months]. The total operation time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative fluoroscopic radiation dose and incision length in the navigation group were more or longer than those in the traditional group (all P<0.05). The effective operation time, single nail placement time, single nail correction times and screw distance from anterior cortex in the navigation group were markedly less or smaller than those in the traditional group (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the length of hospital stay between the two groups ( P>0.05). There were significant improvements in the height of intervertebral space, Cobb angle and interbody slip distance between the two groups at 3 days after operation (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the height of intervertebral space, Cobb angle, interbody slip distance or ASIA grade between the two groups before operation or at 3 days after operation (all P>0.05). Compared with pre-operation, the VAS, JOA score and NDI were significantly improved in both groups at 3 days, 3 months after operation and at the last follow-up (all P<0.05), with further improvement with time. There was no significant difference in VAS between the two groups before operation or at 3 months after operation (all P>0.05), but it was markedly lower in the navigation group compared with the traditional group at 3 days after operation and at the last follow-up (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in JOA score or NDI between the two groups before operation or at 3 days and 3 months after operation (all P>0.05), but both were lower in the navigation group compared with the traditional group at the last follow-up (all P<0.05). The accuracies of placement of grade 0 and grade 0+1 screws were 92.0% (70/76) and 96.6% (73/76) in the navigation group, respectively, which were markedly higher than 88.7% (78/88) and 93.5% (82/88) in the traditional group (all P<0.05). The rates of adjacent facet joint invasion of A, B, and C degrees were 71.2% (54/76), 28.8% (22/76) and 0% (0/76) in the navigation group, respectively, while the invasion rates were 60.5% (53/88), 32.3% (28/88) and 7.3% (7/88) in the traditional group ( P<0.05). No screw loosening was noted in the navigation group, but the screw loosening rate was 9.1% (8/88) in the traditional group ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Compared with manual screw placement, O-arm combined with CT three-dimensional navigation system assisted screw placement for lower cervical fracture and dislocation has the advantages of shorter effective operation time, quicker screw placement, stronger screw holding force, better cervical stability, slighter postoperative pain, higher screw placement accuracy, and lower facet joint invasion and screw loosening rates.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) before treatment for pathological complete response (pCR) in patients with breast cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy.Methods:The clinicopathological data of 119 patients with primary breast cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy and subsequent breast-conserving or modified radical surgery from Cangzhou Central Hospital of Hebei Province between January 2010 to March 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, and patients were divided into pCR group ( n=19) and non-pCR group ( n=100) based on postoperative pathology. The SIRI before treatment between the two groups was compared. The patients were divided into SIRI≤0.25 ( n=10) , 0.26-0.50 ( n=42) , 0.51-0.75 ( n=29) , 0.76-1.00 ( n=19) , and >1.00 ( n=19) groups according the SIRI before treatment, and the pCR ratios of the five groups were compared. Spearman correlation analysis was applied to evaluate the relationship between SIRI before treatment and pCR, logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influencing factors of pCR for neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer patients, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of SIRI before treatment for pCR of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. Results:Tumor size ( Z=2.26, P=0.024) , axillary lymph node metastasis ( χ2=5.73, P=0.017) , human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) ( χ2=8.77, P=0.003) , Ki-67 ( Z=2.68, P=0.007) , cytological nuclear grade ( χ2=5.08, P=0.024) , neutrophil count before treatment ( Z=2.44, P=0.015) , monocyte/lymphocyte ratio before treatment ( Z=3.04, P=0.002) , and SIRI before treatment ( Z=3.29, P=0.001) had statistical differences between the pCR and non-pCR groups. The pCR ratios were 50% (5/10) in the SIRI ≤0.25 group, 21% (9/42) in the 0.26-0.50 group, 10% (3/29) in the 0.51-0.75 group, 11% (2/19) in the 0.76-1.00 group, and 0 (0/19) in the >1.00 group, with a statistic difference ( χ2=14.28, P=0.006) . SIRI before treatment was negatively related with pCR ( r=-0.30, P=0.001) . Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that tumor size ( OR=0.50, 95% CI: 0.28-0.89, P=0.019) , axillary lymph node metastasis ( OR=5.43, 95% CI: 1.19-24.83, P=0.029) , HER-2 ( OR=7.54, 95% CI: 1.65-34.36, P=0.009) , Ki-67 ( OR=1.03, 95% CI: 1.01-1.05, P=0.008) , cytological nuclear grade ( OR=0.20, 95% CI: 0.04-0.92, P=0.038) , neutrophil count before treatment ( OR=0.54, 95% CI: 0.32-0.92, P=0.023) , monocyte/lymphocyte ratio before treatment ( OR=0.00, 95% CI: 0.00-0.01, P=0.007) , and SIRI before treatment ( OR=0.03, 95% CI: 0.00-0.37, P=0.007) were influencing factors for pCR of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. Multivariate logistic regression analysis confirmed that tumor size ( OR=0.31, 95% CI: 0.14-0.72, P=0.007) , axillary lymph node metastasis ( OR=10.97, 95% CI: 1.35-89.61, P=0.025) , HER-2 ( OR=6.47, 95% CI: 1.18-35.65, P=0.032) , Ki-67 ( OR=1.04, 95% CI: 1.00-1.07, P=0.029) , cytological nuclear grade ( OR=7.87, 95% CI: 1.01-61.35, P=0.049) , and SIRI before treatment ( OR=0.03, 95% CI: 0.00-0.58, P=0.020) were independent influencing factors for pCR of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. The ROC curve showed that the area under the curve of SIRI before treatment for predicting pCR was 0.74 (95% CI: 0.65-0.82) , sensitivity was 68.0%, and specificity was 75.3%. The area under the curve of monocyte/lymphocyte ratio before treatment for predicting pCR was 0.72 (95% CI: 0.63-0.80) , sensitivity was 48.0%, and specificity was 84.2%. The area under the curve of neutrophil count before treatment for predicting pCR was 0.68 (95% CI: 0.59-0.76) , sensitivity was 61.0%, and specificity was 83.7%. Conclusion:SIRI before treatment may serve as a marker for predicting pCR in patients with breast cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy, patients with low SIRI are more likely to obtain pCR.

In recent years, with the continuous progress of medical technology, the survival rate of cancer patients after treatment has been continuously improved, and more and more young cancer patients begin to pay attention to the fertility problem after survival. For prepubertal or adolescent cancer patients who require urgent chemoradiotherapy, and for reproductive female patients, ovarian tissue cryopreservation (OTC) follows by transplantation is the only option to preserve their fertility at present. Although the OTC technology has been carried out as a routine clinical project in a few medical institutions in China, it is still in the stage of clinical trial research in majority medical institutions. There are still many technical and ethical challenges in clinical practice of OTC technology. Therefore, this paper discussed the ethical principles that should be followed in clinical practice of human OTC and transplantation, and briefly analyzed the corresponding ethical issues. When implementing this technology, the indications should be followed strictly, the wishes of patients should be respected and true and full informed consent should be obtained while ensuring that the cancer treatment of patients is not delayed. Besides, it is significants to accumulate enough experience for minor patients to fully protect their rights and interests and promote the construction of relevant national laws and regulations.
