Objective This study aims to develop a prognostic risk prediction model for gastric cancer based on m1A/m5C/m6A/m7G regulated genes and to investigate the relationship between this model and immunology.Methods The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)gastric cancer dataset was utilized to identify m1A/m5C/m6A/m7G regulated genes with significant expression differences.A prognostic risk score(RS)model was constructed using univariate Cox regression analysis and the LASSO algorithm.The RS model was validated using the Kaplan-Meier(K-M)statistic and cell lines for RT-qPCR biological validation.A nomogram model was created using univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses.The CIBERSORT algorithm and ESTIMATE package were employed to conduct immune correlation analysis.Results A prognostic RS model based on eight methylation regulated genes was developed to classify patients with gastric cancer as high-risk or low-risk.These eight genes showed significant expression in gastric cancer cell lines(P<0.05).The TCGA-gastric cancer training set and GSE62254-validation set showed a substantial connection(P<0.001)between overall survival rate(OS)and grouping status.The nomogram survival models accurately predicted 1-year(C-index = 0.703),3-year(C-index = 0.729),and 5-year(C-index = 0.734)survival rates.Immune correlation analysis showed that compared to the low-risk group,the high-risk group had higher immune scores and higher expression of immune checkpoint-related genes(P<0.05).Conclusion We created a reliable prognostic RS model based on m1A/m5C/m6A/m7G regulated genes that can predict gastric cancer prognosis and guide individualized immunotherapy decisions.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of achieving textbook outcome (TO) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and to construct a nomograph model to explore its predictive value in TO.Methods:The clinical data of 205 patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma treated by PD in Henan University People's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2022 were analyzed retrospectively, including 88 males and 117 females with the age of (61.3±9.8) years old. Patients were divided into two groups based on whether they achieved TO after surgery: TO group ( n=113) and non-TO group ( n=92). Clinical data such as age, gender, intraoperative blood loss, operation time, blood transfusion volume, pancreatic CT value, and tumor differentiation degree were collected. Logistic regression analysis screened the influencing factors of PD postoperative TO and built a nomogram model. The performance of the nomogram model was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration diagram, and decision curve analysis. Results:Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the higher the degree of tumor differentiation was in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (high differentiation to medium differentiation: OR=7.20, 95% CI: 1.20-43.28; high differentiation to low differentiation: OR=16.55, 95% CI: 2.01-136.11), CT value>38.45 Hu ( OR=0.29, 95% CI: 0.13-0.65), blood transfusion volume ≤350 ml ( OR=8.05, 95% CI: 2.94-22.01) and operative time ≤407.5 min ( OR=10.88, 95% CI: 3.90-30.41), the easier it was to achieve TO after PD (all P<0.05). Based on the above influencing factors, a nomogram model of the postoperative effect of PD on TO was established, and the consistency index of this column graph model was 0.863 (95% CI: 0.816-0.911). The sensitivity and specificity of ROC curve were 0.804 and 0.752, respectively. The calibration diagram showed that the calibration curve fits well with the ideal curve, and the decision curve showed that the model had obvious positive net benefit. Conclusion:The degree of tumor differentiation, CT value, blood transfusion volume, and operation time are independent influencing factors for the achievement of TO after PD in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and the nomogram model constructed based on which has good predictive performance for TO.

Objective:To investigate the expression levels of miRNA-21 (miR-21) and miRNA-330 (miR-330) in serum exosomes of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases, and the correlation of the two with the prognosis of patients.Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted. A total of 125 NSCLC patients who were admitted to the Affiliated People's Hospital of Shandong First Medical University from March 2021 to September 2022 were prospectively selected, and the brain metastasis was determined by CT, contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of the head, or surgical pathology. The NSCLC patients were divided into the metastatic group (58 cases) and the non-metastatic group (67 cases) according to whether they had brain metastases, and 50 patients with benign lung diseases and 50 healthy subjects who underwent physical examination in the same period were selected as benign group and healthy control group respectively. Serum samples were collected from all subjects (including patients' pre-treatment samples), the exosomes were extracted, and real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to determine the relative expression of miR-21 and miR-330 in exosomes at the transcriptional level, and electrochemiluminescence immunoassay was used to detect the levels of serum tumor markers [neuron-specific enolase (NSE), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCCA)]. The levels of miR-21 and miR-330 in serum exosomes and serum tumor markers in the 4 groups were compared, and the correlation between miR-21 and miR-330 in serum exosomes of NSCLC patients with brain metastases before treatment and the correlation between miR-21, miR-330 and serum tumor markers were analyzed by Pearson method. Using brain metastases identified by CT, contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of the head or surgical pathology as the gold standard, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn to determine the occurrence of brain metastases in NSCLC patients based on the levels of miR-21, miR-330 and their combination in the serum exosomes before treatment. NSCLC patients were divided into the poor prognosis group and the good prognosis group according to whether or not they died of tumor during the follow-up period, and the clinical characteristics and levels of miR-21 and miR-330 in serum exosomes before treatment were compared between the two groups. The independent influencing factors of death due to tumor in NSCLC patients were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression.Results:Among 125 NSCLC patients, 68 (54.4%) were male and 57 (45.6%) were female; the age was (63±5) years old, ranging from 49 to 82 years old; 89 patients (71.2%) were adenocarcinoma and 36 patients (28.8%) were squamous cell carcinoma. The transcriptional level relative expression of miR-21 in serum exosomes of healthy control group, benign group, non-metastatic group and metastatic group increased sequentially, the transcriptional level relative expression of miR-330 decreased sequentially, the protein concentrations of NSE, CEA and SCCA increased sequentially, and the differences between each two groups were statistically significant (all P<0.001). Pearson correlation analysis showed that in the serum exosomes of NSCLC patients with brain metastases before treatment, miR-21 was positively correlated with serum NSE, CEA and SCCA levels ( r values were 0.641, 0.785 and 0.612, respectively; P values were 0.015, 0.011 and 0.019, respectively), miR-330 in the serum exosomes before treatment was negatively correlated with serum NSE, CEA, and SCCA levels ( r values were -0.612, -0.689 and -0.587, respectively; P values were 0.016, 0.021 and 0.013, respectively), and miR-21 was positively correlated with miR-330 in the serum exosomes before treatment ( r = -0.529, P = 0.023). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of miR-21, miR-330 and their combination in serum exosomes before treatment for determining the occurrence of brain metastases in NSCLC patients were 0.861 (95% CI: 0.792-0.931), 0.894 (95% CI: 0.840-0.947) and 0.906 (95% CI: 0.849-0.963), and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.001). The optimal cut-off value of miR-21 relative expression was 1.625, and the corresponding sensitivity and specificity were 77.4% and 71.5%, respectively; the optimal cut-off value of miR-330 was 0.611, and the corresponding sensitivity and specificity were 81.1% and 74.9%, respectively; the sensitivity and specificity when the two were combined to reach the optimal cut-off value were 84.5% and 73.8%, respectively. NSCLC patients were followed up for a median time of 19 months (95% CI: 17-21 months), and 23 cases (18.4%) died due to the tumor during the follow-up period. The proportions of patients with age ≥60 years old, clinical stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ and brain metastases and the relative expression of miR-21 in serum exosomes before treatment in the poor prognosis group were higher than those in the good prognosis group, the relative expression of miR-330 in the serum exosomes before treatment was lower than that in the good prognosis group, and the differences were all statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the high age (≥60 years old vs. <60 years old, OR = 3.750, 95% CI: 1.191-11.806, P = 0.024), late clinical stage (stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ vs. stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ, OR = 4.667, 95% CI: 1.303-16.716, P = 0.018), brain metastasis (with metastasis vs. non-metastasis, OR = 2.573, 95% CI: 1.008-6.611, P = 0.049), and elevated relative expression of miR-21 in serum exosomes before treatment ( OR = 2.585, 95% CI: 1.198-6.152, P = 0.008) were the independent risk factors for death due to tumor in NSCLC patients, and elevated relative expression of miR-330 in serum exosomes before treatment was an independent protective factor for death due to tumor ( OR = 0.821, 95% CI: 0.715-0.954, P < 0.001). Conclusions:miR-21 level is high and miR-330 level is low in serum exosomes of NSCLC patients with brain metastases before treatment, and there is a negative correlation between them, and they are closely related to various serum tumor markers of NSCLC patients with brain metastases and NSCLC patients' prognosis; the combination of the two may predict the occurrence status of brain metastases in NSCLC.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and pathological features and improve the acknowledgement of intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN) of pancreas.Methods:Six cases with ITPN in the Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University combined with 40 cases from PubMed and CNKI were retrospectively analyzed. There were 25 males and 21 females, aged (58.6±16.0) years. The clinical manifestations, pathological features, treatment and so on were analyzed.Results:All cases were treated with surgery. The main clinical symptoms were upper abdominal pain and discomfort (23 cases, 50.0%), followed by jaundice (9 cases, 19.6%). Seven cases (15.2%) had no clinical symptoms. Three cases (6.5%) had low back discomfort, chills and other rare symptoms, and 4 cases (8.7%) had no clinical symptoms mentioned in the literature. Tumors of 27 cases (58.7%) located in the head of the pancreas, 9 cases (19.6%) in the body and tail, 4 cases (8.7%) in the whole pancreas, 3 cases (6.5%) in the body, 2 cases (4.3%) in ampulla and 1 case (2.2%) in head and body. Most of the tumors located in the main pancreatic duct. Microscopically, back-to-back tubular glands were densely arranged, parts of them with papillary structure, with obvious cell atypia and many mitoses. Twenty-two cases (47.8%) of ITPN were completely confined to the pancreatic duct, and 24 cases (52.2%) were with associated invasive carcinoma. Tumor cells were positive for cytokeratin 7 and mucin 1, but negative for cytokeratin 20, synaptophysin, chromogranin and trypsin. Mucin 2, mucin 5AC and mucin 6 were negative in most cases. Ki-67 ranged from 10% to 70%.Conclusion:Pancreatic ITPNs were mostly located in the pancreatic head, confined to the main pancreatic duct, and were mostly manifested as pain and discomfort in the upper abdomen. Surgery was the main treatment. Tumors cells of ITPN were arranged in tubular and papillary, with severe epithelial atypia and special immunophenotype, parts of cases accompanied with associated invasive carcinoma.

Objective:To study the correlation between serum bilirubin and cystatin C in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 750 patients who were in the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from June 2017 to May 2018. The clinical data were collected, and the correlation between serum total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, indirect bilirubin and cystatin C was analyzed.Results:According to the results of single factor analysis, after adjusting the related confounding factors, the smooth curve fitting showed that there was a U-shaped relationship between the total bilirubin, indirect bilirubin and cystatin C. When the total bilirubin was <15.9 μmol/L, for every increase of 1 μmol/L in total bilirubin, cystatin C decreased 0.008 mg/L ( β = - 0.008, 95% CI - 0.014 to - 0.002, P<0.01); when indirect bilirubin was <11.5 μmol/L, for every increase of 1 μmol/L in indirect bilirubin, cystatin C decreased 0.011 mg/L ( β = - 0.011, 95% CI - 0.018 to - 0.003, P<0.01). When cystatin C was grouped according to the normal range (cystatin C<1.25 mg/L), after adjusting the related confounding factors, the smooth curve fitting showed that there was a U-shaped relationship between the total bilirubin and indirect bilirubin with cystatin C; when total bilirubin was <15.5 mol/L, for every increase of 1 μmol/L in total bilirubin, the risk of cystatin C exceeding the normal value was reduced by 17% ( OR = 0.83, 95% CI 0.71 to 0.96, P<0.01); when total bilirubin was ≥15.5 μmol/L, for every increase of 1 μmol/L in total bilirubin, the risk of cystatin C exceeding the normal value was increased by 12% ( OR = 1.12, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.25, P<0.05); when indirect bilirubin was <11.8 μmol/L, every increase of 1 μmol/L in indirect bilirubin, the risk of cystatin C exceeding the normal value was reduced by 20% ( OR = 0.80, 95% CI 0.67 to 0.95, P<0.01). However there was no significant correlation between direct bilirubin and cystatin C. Conclusions:There is a U-shaped relationship between total bilirubin, indirect bilirubin and cystatin C. At physiological concentrations, the increase of total bilirubin and indirect bilirubin can reduce cystatin C.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and efficacy of drug treatment in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) at different ages of onset.Methods:The clinical data of 87 children with IBD admitted to Department of Gastroenterology in Children′s Hospital, Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 2009 to December 2018 were collected. The patients were divided into four groups according to the age of onset: 0 -<2 years old group (36 cases), 2 -<6 years old group (10 cases), 6 -<10 years old group (12 cases) and 10 -<18 years old group (29 cases). The clinical manifestations, laboratory examination, endoscopic findings, pathologic and genetic changes, and treatment were compared among different age groups with chi-square test or Fisher′s exact text.Results:(1) A total of 87 patients were diagnosed with IBD, including 50 Crohn′s disease (CD) (57%), 25 ulcerative colitis (UC) (29%) and 12 unclassified inflammatory bowel disease (IBD-U) (14%). (2) Patients with fever accounted for 78% (28/36) and 8/10 in the 0 -<2 years old group and 2 -<6 years old group, respectively. Patients with abdominal pain and perianal diseases accounted for 6% (2/36) and 47% (17/36) in the 0 -<2 years old group, and their proportions were significantly different among the four groups (χ 2=8.369, 40.317 and 13.130, all P<0.05). (3) Leukocytosis, thrombocytosis and anemia were more common in the 0-<2 years old group, seen in 72% (26/36), 31% (11/36) and 81% (29/36), respectively. There were significant differences in the changes of complete blood count among the four groups (χ 2=21.919, 8.095 and 11.520, all P<0.05). (4) Colonic involvement accounted for 85% (17/20) in the 0 -<2 years old CD patients. While in the CD patients over 6 years old, 61% (14/23) had inflammation of ileum and colon, with a significant difference compared to that in patients under 6 years old (19% (5/27) , χ 2=9.455, P=0.003). Also, the location of bowel inflammation among the four groups were significantly different (χ 2=21.120, P<0.01). (5) Noncaseating granulomas were found in 15 (30%) CD patients, and crypt abscess was found in 11 (44%) UC patients. (6) Among the 24 patients whose genes were analyzed by high throughput sequencing, 12 had pathogenic single gene mutation. (7) There were 25 patients treated with total enteral nutrition. Among the 25 patients treated with thalidomide, 20 (80%) had clinical remission or partial remission. Among the 19 CD patients treated with infliximab (IFX), 14 had clinical remission at the 6 th week of treatment, and the proportion of remission maintenance at the 30 th week of treatment was 12/14. (8) The rate of clinical remission or partial remission was 64% (23/36) in the 0 -<2 years old group, 8/10 in the 2 -<6 years old group, 11/12 in the 6 -<10 years old group, and 83% (24/29) in the 10 -<18 years old group. Conclusions:The proportion of CD was higher than that of UC in this study. Infant onset inflammatory bowel disease was more likely to present with perianal lesions, and was usually associated with leukocytosis, thrombocytosis and anemia, and has high possibility of single gene mutation. IFX may be effective in treating CD.
