Objective:To investigate the utilization of health management services and its influencing factors among new urban population.Methods:It is a cross-sectional study. From July 2020 to March 2021, a stratified random sampling method was used to extract 1978 new urban population in Jining city, and an anonymous self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted using a self-made questionnaire ′Residents Health Questionnaire′. The survey included general demographic characteristics, personal behavior lifestyle and medical care status. The χ2 test and binary logistic regression were used to analyze the factors influencing the utilization of health management services by new urban population. Results:The overall utilization of health management services in the new urban population was 47.22%. There were significant differences in utilization of health management services among new urban population with different gender, age, education level, occupation and monthly income. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that female ( OR=1.354, 95% CI: 1.094-1.676), people aged over 60 years ( OR=1.873, 95% CI: 1.413-2.483), people with a mean monthly income over 3 000 yuan ( OR=1.498, 95% CI: 1.123-1.997), people engaged in light manual labor ( OR=1.596, 95% CI: 1.003-2.539), people who exercise regularly( OR=2.400, 95% CI: 2.028-2.841) and people having social basic medical insurance ( OR=2.633, 95% CI: 2.042-3.394) had better utilization of health management projects. People who sat more than 3 hours a day ( OR=0.630, 95% CI: 0.532-0.745) had lower utilization of health management care. Conclusion:The utilization of health management projects in the new urban population is low. Gender, age, monthly income, physical exercise, sedentary time, daily labor intensity and social basic medical insurance status are the main influencing factors.

Objective:To explore the markers predicting the efficacy of anti-programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1)/PD-1 ligand (PD-L1) immunotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and analyze their relationships with the tumor immune microenvironment.Methods:(1) Gene expression profile data and relevant clinical data of 55 NSCLC patients receiving anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monotherapy from two independent clinical cohorts were downloaded from the GEO database. Genes associated with progression-free survival (PFS) were screened using univariate Cox regression analysis. (2) Twenty-six pathological tissue specimens of NSCLC patients who received anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monotherapy in the Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (CICAMS) from April 2016 to August 2019 prior to the screening of genes were selected to verify the predictive value of the screened genes using immunohistochemistry. (3) The relationship between efficacy predictive markers and PD-L1 and infiltrating immune cells in the tumor immune microenvironment was analyzed using NSCLC gene expression profile downloaded from the TCGA database.Results:Univariate Cox regression analysis revealed that only T-Cell Surface Glycoprotein CD3 Gamma Chain (CD3G) was a risk predictive gene for PFS in NSCLC patients in both clinical cohorts of the GEO database (GSE93157: P = 0.049; GSE136961: P = 0.034). Further Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that PFS was significantly prolonged in the high CD3G expression group ( P = 0.012). The results of survival analysis in the CICAMS clinical cohort also demonstrated that NSCLC patients with high CD3G expression had a better prognosis after receiving anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monotherapy ( P = 0.001) compared with those with low CD3G expression. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses also showed that CD3G was an independent predictor of PFS (univariate: P = 0.002; multivariate: P = 0.001). The tumor immune microenvironment analysis showed that CD3G was positively correlated with PD-L1 expression (lung adenocarcinoma: r = 0.44, P < 0.001; lung squamous cell carcinoma: r = 0.37, P < 0.001) and the infiltration level of CD8 + T cells (lung adenocarcinoma: r = 0.13, P = 0.002; lung squamous cell carcinoma: r = 0.70, P < 0.001). CD3G was also positively correlated with the expression of CD8 + T cell chemokines CCL5, CXCL9, CXCL10 and CXCL11. Conclusion:Patients with NSCLC with high CD3G expression have greater clinical benefits after anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monotherapy compared with those with low CD3G expression. CD3G can be used as a potential marker to predict the efficacy of immunotherapy for NSCLC.

Objective:To explore the diagnosis, treatment and prognostic of pediatric intracranial atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor(AT/RT).Methods:A total of 15 pediatric patients with intracranial AT/RT were treated between January 2012 and June 2019 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University.The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed.Overall survival (OS) rate and progression free survival (PFS) rate were calculated by adopting Kaplan- Meier method.The differences between the 2 groups were tested by performing Log- rank method, and the prognostic factors were analyzed by COX regression. Results:There were 12 males and 3 females, with the median age of 5.5 years (ranging from 8 months to 17.1 years). All patients underwent surgical resection.Gross-total resection (GTR) was achieved in 10 cases and subtotal resection (STR) was carried out in 5 patients.The conducted treatments were as follows: surgery+ radiotherapy+ chemotherapy+ intrathecal injection in 6 cases, surgery+ chemotherapy+ intrathecal injection in 4 cases, surgery+ radiotherapy in 2 cases, and surgery alone in 3 cases.Until January 2020, the median survival time of all the 15 patients was 18 months (ranged 1-27 months), and the survival rate was 33.3%.The 1-year OS rate and PFS rate for all 15 cases were 71.5% and 49.7%, respectively.The 2-year OS rate and PFS rate were 17.9% and 0, respectively. Log- rank analyses revealed that the 1-year OS rates of children less than 3 years old and those older than 3 years were 87.5% and 57.1%, respectively ( χ2=6.057, P=0.014). The 1-year OS rates of children with GTR and those with STR were 90.0% and 40.0%, respectively ( χ2=6.057, P=0.014). The 1-year OS rates of children with tumor dissemination and those without tumor dissemination were 100.0% and 33.3%, respectively( χ2=9.865, P=0.002). The 1-year OS rates of children in the standard-risk group and those in the high-risk group were 88.9% and 41.7%, respectively ( χ2=5.111, P=0.024). COX regression analyses proved that age, the extent of tumor resection, tumor dissemination and risk stratification are independent risk factors for prognosis [hazard radio( HR)=3.411, 3.795, 5.245, 3.397; P=0.025, 0.011, 0.001, 0.017]. Conclusions:Pediatric intracranial AT/RT is rare.The preliminary diagnosis and prognosis are difficult and poor, respectively.The complete resection of tumors with maximal safety remains the primary treatment.Age, the extent of tumor resection, tumor dissemination and risk stratification are independent prognostic factors for AT/RT children.

Objective:A multi-center and large sample volume study was conducted on the verification and improvement of the early established criteria for intelligent routine urinalysis validation (including the microscopic review rules and manual validation rules, referred to as intelligent criteria for short), in order to improve the clinical application of this intelligent criteria.Methods:A total of 31 456 urine specimens were collected from the inpatients and outpatients in six hospitals in China, from March to September 2019. Firstly, 3105 specimens were analyzed for preliminary verification and improvement of the intelligent criteria based on the results of the microscopic examination and manual validation. Secondly, 28 351 specimens were used to verify the clinical application of the improved intelligent criteria. All samples were manually validated as reference.Results:The approval inconsistency rate of the manual validation rules in the original intelligent criteria was 8.59% (202/2 352), and the interception inconsistency rate was 8.84% (208/2 352). The false negative rate and the microscopic review rate of the microscopic review rules were similar to the previous results. Based on an in-depth analysis of big data and the discussions by senior technicians from eight hospitals, one microscopic review rules and four manual validation rules were added, meanwhile two manual validation rule was deleted. The manual validation standards were unified. Finally, the intelligent criteria was improved. Based on the improved intelligent criteria, for microscopic review rules, the false positive rate, false negative rate (misdiagnosis rate), and microscopic review rate did not change significantly, which were 14.72% (457/3 105), 4.06% (126/3 105), and 24.73% (768/3 105), respectively. The approval inconsistency rate and the interception inconsistency rate of manual validation rules were both reduced to 0; the total manual validation rate of the intelligent criteria was 50.89% (1 580/3 105), and the auto-validation rate was 49.11% (1 525/3 105). The large sample volume verification results were consistent with the preliminary verification results of the improved intelligent criteria.Conclusion:This multi-center and large sample volume study had shown that the improved intelligent criteria had better clinical performance.

The abnormal characteristics and unacceptable Delta check of the specimens also need to be concerned at the same time.The false negative rate and false positive rate, true negative rate, true positive rate and pass correct rate of autoverification were verified and compared with the rate of the second phase verification when the autoverification rule was established. The false negative rate, false positive rate, true negative rate and true positive rate of the Delta check rule which 54 716 specimens touched were calculated and compared with the second phase verification rate when the autoverification rule was established.The results of microscopic examination were used as the gold standard for the calculation of the rates, and P<0.05 was considered as a significant difference. The false positive and true positive of 1 012 autoverification rules were analyzed item by item.The false positive and true positive of 108 specimens which touched blast cell autoverification rule were analyzed terms by terms. The mean TAT and median TAT of 528 010 specimens and 193 750 outpatient specimens were calculated respectively, and the report percentages of 528 010 samples that TAT<30, 30-60 and>60 min were calculated respectively. Analyze and evaluate the application suitability of autoverification rules to juge whether they meet the needs of doctors and laboratory. The design process and the rules and application process of autoverification were optimized and improved.Results:The autoverification pass rate was 63.06% (332 971/528 010), the interception rate was 36.94% (195 039/528 010). The false negative rate was 1.00% (1/600), the false positive rate was 12.67% (76/600), the true negative rate was 49% (294/600), the true positive rate was 37.33% (224/600), and the correct rate was 98% (294/300).

Objective To investigate the expression of SOX4 and C/EBPα mRNA in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and their clinical significances. Methods Bone marrow samples from 68 cases of CML including 57 newly diagnosed patients and 11 patients treated with imatinib were collected, and peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 30 healthy people were collected as healthy control. The expression of SOX4 and C/EBPαmRNA and protein levels were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. The relations between the expression of SOX4 and C/EBPα and the influences of imatinib on SOX4 and C/EBPα were analyzed. Results The expression level of SOX4 mRNA was increased in newly diagnosed CML patients compared with that of normal control group (6.545 5±1.495 2 vs. 0.059 6±0.018 8, t=3.139, P=0.002 3), but the expression level of C/EBPαmRNA was significantly decreased (0.238 8±0.033 8 vs. 0.810 5±0.056 2, t=9.240, P<0.000 1). The expression levels of SOX4 and C/EBPαmRNA had no significant correlation with age, gender, white blood cell count (WBC) and bcr-abl of newly diagnosed patients (all P>0.05). The expression level of SOX4 mRNA in 5 patients treated with imatinib was decreased (0.120 6 ±0.044 9 vs. 0.557 9±0.144 8, t=2.885, P=0.020 4), and the expression level of C/EBPαmRNA was increased (0.330 3±0.042 4 vs. 0.150 5±0.046 5, t=2.855, P=0.021 3). The expression level of SOX4 mRNA in 6 patients who developed blast phase during the treatment of imatinib was increased (0.469 9±0.123 0 vs. 0.050 2±0.036 6, t=2.370, P=0.039 3), and the expression level of C/EBPα mRNA was decreased (0.197 9 ±0.064 7 vs. 0.378 7±0.042 9, t=2.327, P=0.042 3). The expression of SOX4 mRNA was negatively correlated with C/EBPα mRNA (t=-0.554 6, P=0.002 8). Conclusions In newly diagnosed CML, the expression level of SOX4 is increased, C/EBPα is decreased compared with that of healthy control, and both have negative correlation. In the patients in blast phase after imatinib treatment, SOX4 gene is up-regulated, and C/EBPα is down-regulated. C/EBPα-SOX4 axis may play a role in the occurrence and development of CML. SOX4 may be a new molecular target for the treatment of CML.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the expression and the possible mechanism of the transcription factor C/EBPα in chronic myeloid leukemia(CML).
METHODSBone marrow samples from 50 CML patients(including 33 patients in chronic phase, 7 in accelerated phase and 10 in blast crisis)and peripheral blood specimens of 20 healthy donors were collected. The expression of C/EBPα gene and the effect of Imatinib on its expression was detected by RT- PCR. C/EBPα gene was inserted into lentivirus expression vector pLVX- EGFP- 3FLAG- Puro by recombinant DNA technology to construct C/EBPα stable expression in K562 cells. Cell proliferation was assayed by CCK-8. The expressions of Foxo3a and Bim genes were detected by RT-PCR.
RESULTSThe level of C/EBPα expression was significantly declined in CML patients compared with that of normal control group(P<0.01)and had negative correlation with bcr- abl expression(Spearman r=- 0.505, P<0.01). The stable K562- C/EBPα cell line was successfully established and confirmed by RT-PCR and Western blot. Cell proliferation ability was lower in the K562- C/EBPα group than that in the non- transfection and mock-vehicle groups. The expressions of Foxo3a and Bim genes were 1.06 ± 0.06 and 0.53 ± 0.07, respectively, which was higher than that of nontransfection and mock-vehicle groups(P<0.01, P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONC/EBPα expression was decreased in CML patients, overexpression of C/EBPα could inhibit K562 cell growth.
