Objective:
To investigate the prevalence and associated factors of eating out among children and adolescents aged 6-17 in Hebei Province, and to explore the association between eating out and overweight/obesity.
Methods:
Data came from Children and Nurse Nutrition Health Monitoring of China during 2016-2017. Questionnaire surveys and anthropometric measures was conducted among 3 330 children aged 6-17 in 12 survey sites. Multivariate Logistics stepwise regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of eating out and the relationship between eating out and overweight/obesity.
Results:
The proportion of eating out was 16.19%, and the rate of overweight and obesity was 29.43%. Multivariate analysis showed that the older children (junior high school students:OR=1.36; high school students:OR=3.57, both P<0.05) and adolescents from highincome families (10 000~<20 000 CNY:OR=1.48; ≥20 000 CNY:OR=2.93, both P<0.05) were more likely to eat out. Children and adolescents living in rural areas (OR=0.20, P<0.01), nononlychild (OR=0.76, P=0.02), day school students (OR=0.21, P<0.01), and the primary caregivers of the elderly (OR=0.69, P=0.03) were less likely to eat out. In addition, eating out was statistically associated with an increased risk of overweight and obesity (OR=1.31, P<0.01).
Conclusion
Eating out is common among children and adolescents aged 6-17 in Hebei Province. Residency, age, household income, onechild family, boarding and and eating out behaviors of primary caregivers are associated with eating out among children and adolescents. Eating out may increase the risk of overweight/obesity in children.

Objective:Recently, increasing number of lung cancer patients benefit from immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). However, the data of Chinese small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients is limited. This study aims to analyze the response and survival data of ICIs treatment in SCLC and to explore the predictive biomarkers.Methods:Forty-seven SCLC patients who received ICIs treatment from Peking University Cancer Hospital from May 2017 to September 2019 was recruited. Clinical characteristics including sex, age, smoking status, ICIs strategy, PD-L1 expression and therapeutic efficacy were collected to explore the clinical predictive biomarkers for SCLC ICIs treatment.Results:Among the 47 patients, 18 (38.3%) cases were partial repose (PR), 11 (23.4%) were stable disease (SD), 18 (38.3%) were progressive disease (PD), and the objective response rate (ORR) was 38.3%, disease control rate (DCR) was 61.7%, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.3 months. ICIs monotherapy accounts for 27.7%, the ORR was 15.4%, DCR was 53.8%, median PFS was 2.7 months. Combined therapy accounts for 72.3%, the ORR was 47.1%, DCR was 64.7%, median PFS was 5.4 months. Fourteen (29.8%) patients received ICIs as the first line treatment, their ORR was 85.7%, DCR was 100%, median PFS was 9.1 month. The ORR was not related to the age, sex, body mass index (BMI), smoking status and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression ( P>0.05). The ORRs were higher in patients underwent PD-L1 monotherapy ( P=0.001), combined therapy ( P=0.002) and received ICIs as the first line treatment ( P<0.001). Log-rank analysis indicated that the PFS of female patients were 12.0 months, significantly longer than 4.4 months of male patients in ICIs treatment ( P=0.038). Patients who received PD-L1 monotherapy, combined treatment, or ICIs as the first line treatment had longer PFS than their counterparts, though no statistical significant was observed ( P>0.05). Cox multivariate analysis showed that, the gender was not an independent predictor for PFS in ICIs treatment ( HR=3.777, 95% CI=0.974~30.891, P=0.054). Conclusions:Immunotherapy is an effective treatment strategy for SCLC. Patients who receive combined ICIs treatment, first line ICIs treatment and PD-L1 treatment may get greater benefits. PD-L1 expression cannot predict the response and PFS in SCLC ICIs treatment.

Objective:
To explore the correlation of non-coding RNA and the tumor-associated antigen midkine (MK) in SKOV3cells and the clinical significance for diagnosis of ovarian cancer.
Methods:
The Agilent′s gene chips (miRNAs chip and lncRNAs chip) were used to analyze the differential expression of miRNAs and lncRNAs in both MK-overexpressing SKOV3-MK cells and the control SKOV3-Con cells to screen the potential biomarkers in ovarian cancer. The clinical significance of midkine in the serum and tissues samples was analyzed for the patients with ovarian cancer by quantitative PCR combined with clinical data.
Results:
Compared with control SKOV3-con cells, MK overexpression significantly promoted the expressions of 11 miRNAs and 7 lncRNAs in SKOV3 cells (P<0.01, ratio>3 fold), reduced the expressions of 8 miRNAs and 13 lncRNAs (P<0.01, ratio<0.3). Results of qPCR showed that the expression level of miR489 was significantly lower in ovarian cancer tissues than that of the contralateral normal ovarian tissues, while HOTAIR was significantly elevated (P<0.05). The expression level of HOTAIR in the serum of ovarian cancer patients was significantly higher than that in healthy controls group with same age (0.036±0.024 vs 0.019±0.020, P=0.002). ROC curve analysis of HOTAIR showed that the specificity was 66.7%, the sensitivity was 75.6% and the AUC value was 0.749 as a marker for serum detection of ovarian cancer when the cutoff value was 0.017 6.
Conclusion
Long-chain non-coding RNA HOTAIR may be served as a potential biomarker in serum of ovarian cancer patients.

Objective To evaluate the effects of chronic disease management on carotid atherosclerosis. Methods From May 2016 to October 2016, 500 subjects with carotid atherosclerosis diagnosed by ultrasound at the Physical examination center of the First Hospital of Jilin University were enrolled. The participants were aged 55?65(60.7±3.5) years. They were divided into the control group (n=250) and intervention group (n=250) using a random number table; a total of 20patients, 13 in the control group and 7 in the intervention group, were lost to follow-up at the end of the study. The control group only received anti-atherosclerosis treatment, while the intervention group underwent additional chronic disease management, and a 1-year follow-up study was conducted. The health of all the subjects was assessed at the beginning of the study and after the study, based on the health file. The chi-square test, two independent sample t-tests, and rank sum test were used to evaluate the effect of chronic disease management on carotid atherosclerosis. Results After 1 year of intervention, the proportion of patients with an unhealthy lifestyle (smoking, excessive drinking, high-salt diet intake, high-fat diet intake, lack of exercise, and overweight/obesity) decreased in the intervention group(10.3%, 13.1%, 7.8%, 8.6%, 6.2%, 28.0%, vs. 28.8%, 35.0%, 21.0%, 22.6%, 13.2%, 39.5%; χ2=26.49, 33.01, 17.09, 18.03, 6.80, 7.21; P<0.05), while the drug compliance increased(44.4% vs. 35.4%, χ2=4.15, P<0.05), and the total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoproteincholesterol (LDL-C), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), uric acid (UA) and blood pressure (BP) compliance rate also increased (91.8%, 73.3%, 83.1%, 83.1%, 52.3%, 76.5%, 74.1%, 60.5%, vs. 67.5%,72.8%,28.0%,58.8%, respectively; χ2=26.86, 8.92, 15.97, 7.49, 29.81, 17.39, respectively; P<0.05); all indicators, except the drug compliance control rate, were better than those in the control group. After 1 year of intervention, the degree of carotid atherosclerosis in the intervention group was significantly reduced compared to that in the control group. Conclusions Chronic disease management could effectively interfere the control risk factors of atherosclerosis, such as smoking, drinking, obesity or overweight, BP, levels of FPG, blood lipids, and UA, improve drug compliance, delay the progression of atherosclerosis and provide a basis for the construction of the atherosclerosis management model.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of mammalian sterile 20-like kinase 1 (MST1) in cervical cancer. Methods Immunohistochemical method was applied to detect the expression level of MST1 protein in specimens of cervical cancer tissues (n=139) and pericarcinomatous tissues (n=20, with≥4 cm distance from the primary tumor's edge). Western blot assay and qPCR were used to detect the protein and mRNA transcription expression levels of MST1 in 20 pairs of cervical cancer tissues and pericarcinomatous tissues, respectively. The correlation between MST1 expression, clinic pathological features and the prognosis were analyzed. Results MST1 was mainly expressed in cytoplasm. The positive expression rate of MST1 was significantly lower in cervical cancer tissues (27%, 38/139) than that in pericarcinomatous tissues (80%, 16/20,χ2=21.62, P<0.01). The expressions levels of MST1 protein and mRNA were both lower in the cervical cancer tissues (P<0.01). In cervical cancer, the positive expression rate of MST1 inⅠb+Ⅱa stage was higher than that ofⅡb+Ⅳstage (P<0.05), the positive expression rate of MST1 in lymph node metastasis was lower than that of without lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05). Values of age, tumor size, histological type and differentiation degree showed no significant difference to positive expression rate of MST1. Moreover, the negative expression of MST1 displayed a significantly poorer overall survival time than that of positive expression of MST1 (Log-rank χ2=28.35, P < 0.01). Conclusion MST1 shows a lower expression in cervical cancer, which may be a new target for clinical treatment and prognosis of cervical cancer.

Background and objective Lacking of typical symptoms, more than 70% of patients with lung cancer are diagnosed as advanced-stage disease. Patients suffer from solid organs metastasis with different clinical features and prog-nosis. With development of new technology, more and more lung cancer patients are diagnosed with pancreatic metastasis. The aim of this study was to investigate clinicopathologic and survival difference by retrospective analysis among lung cancer patients with pancreatic metastases.Methods Of the patients with lung cancer diagnosed by pathology and thorough staging evaluation and treated at Beijing Cancer Hospital with long follow-up during July 1996 and June 2017, 35 cases had pancreatic metastases.Results There were 28 cases diagnosed as small cell lung cancer, 3 cases diagnosed as adenocarcinoma and 4 cases diagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma. There were 15 cases with pancreatic metastases in head of pancreas and 20 cases in body and tail of pancreas, 23 cases presented with isolated metastasis and 12 cases with multiple metastases. Pathological type was prognostic factor for lung cancer patients with pancreatic metastases.Conclusion Pancreatic metastases represents an uncommon site of extrathoracic spread of disease for part of patients with advanced lung cancer. Lung cancer with pancreatic metastases should be treated by combined therapy, especially by systemic chemotherapy. Pathological type was prognostic fac-tor for lung cancer patients with pancreatic metastases.
