Objective:To investigate the risk factors and prognostic value of the textbook outcome (TO) in patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC) who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgical resection.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. A total of 253 patients with AGC who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with gastrectomy and D2 lymphadenectomy in the Department of Gastric Surgery, Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from January 2010 to December 2019 were retrospectively included. There were 195 males and 58 females, aged (60.3±10.0) years (range: 27 to 75 years). The patients were then divided into the TO group ( n=168) and the non-TO group ( n=85). Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent predictors of TO. Univariate and multivariate Cox analysis were used to analyze independent prognosis factors for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Propensity score matching was performed to balance the TO and non-TO groups, and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rates and draw survival curves. Results:Among the 253 patients, 168 patients (66.4%) achieved TO. The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group score ( OR=0.488, 95% CI: 0.278 to 0.856, P=0.012) and ypN stage ( OR=0.626, 95% CI:0.488 to 0.805, P<0.01) were independently predictive of TO. Multivariate analysis revealed that TO was an independent risk factor for both OS ( HR=0.662, 95% CI: 0.457 to 0.959, P=0.029) and DFS ( HR=0.687, 95% CI: 0.483 to 0.976, P=0.036). After matching, the 5-year OS rate (42.2% vs. 27.8%) and the 5-year DFS rate (37.5% vs. 27.8%) were significantly higher in the TO group than in the non-TO group (both P<0.05). Furthermore, patients in the non-TO group benefited significantly from postoperative chemotherapy (both P<0.05), but those in the TO group did not (both P>0.05). Conclusion:TO is an independent prognosis factor in patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery for AGC and is associated with postoperative chemotherapy benefits.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) during clopidogrel treatment in patients with ischemic stroke.Methods:Patients with ischemic stroke who received maintenance dose of clopidogrel (75 mg/d) in the Department of Neurology, Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from January 2017 to March 2021 were retrospectively included. The highest quartile (Q4) of the TyG index was defined as insulin resistance. Platelet reactivity was assessed by thromboelastogram and clopidogrel HTPR was defined as the clot strength induced by adenosine diphosphate (MA ADP) >47 mm. Multivariate regression model was used to analyze the independent correlation between TyG index and platelet reactivity. Results:A total of 83 patients were included. The TyG index showed a linear correlation with MA ADP. The patients were divided into 4 groups according to the quartile of TyG index. The incidence of clopidogrel HTPR increased significantly with the increase of the quartile of the TyG index ( Ptrend=0.017). Multivariate analysis showed that there was a significant independent correlation between insulin resistance and clopidogrel HTPR (odds ratio 4.597, 95% confidence interval 1.285-16.446; P=0.019). Conclusions:In patients with ischemic stroke treated with clopidogrel, the incidence of clopidogrel HTPR gradually increases with the increase of the quartile of the TyG index. The insulin resistance assessed by the TyG index is independently associated with clopidogrel HTPR.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of action and prognostic value of Dynamin 3 (DNM3) in gastric cancer.Methods:The bioinformatic analysis, experimental study and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data, fresh gastric cancer tissues, paired normal tissues and the corresponding paraffin sections of 153 gastric cancer patients who underwent radical gastrectomy in Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from January 2013 to July 2018 were collected. Tissues and the corresponding paraffin sections were subjected to quanti-tative real-time polymerase chain reaction, immunoblotting assay, flow cytometric cell cycle assay and immunohistochemical staining, respectively, and clinicopathological data were used for prognostic analysis. The stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) dataset from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database was collected for bioinformatic analysis. Observation indicators: (1) DNM3 gene expression in TCGA-STAD in gastric cancer; (2) mutations and copy number alterations of DNM3 in gastric cancer; (3) methylation level of promoter of DNM3 in gastric cancer; (4) relative protein expression of DNM3 and p53 in gastric cancer; (5) DNM3 correlation and enrichment analysis; (6) ratio of G0/G1 phase, S phase and G2/M phase of cell cycle progression; (7) correlation between immune cell infiltration and DNM3 in gastric cancer; (8) correlation between results of immunohistochemical (IHC) staining and clinical features; (9) analysis of independent factors influencing 5-year overall survival rate of gastric cancer patients. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean±SD, and comparison among multiple groups was conducted using the ANOVA and further comparison between two groups was conducted using the LSD. Comparison between two groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and compari-son between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the rank sum test. The Pearson correlation coefficient or Spearman correlation coefficient was used to test the correlation between groups. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using the COX proportional risk regression model. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curves and calculate survival rates, and the Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. The Benjamini-Hochberg false discovery rate correction was used for adjusting of the P-value. Results:(1) DNM3 gene expression in TCGA-STAD. The expression levels of DNM3 gene in the 27 tumor tissues and paired normal tissues of the TCGA-STAD database were 0.775(0.605,1.161) and 1.216(0.772,1.681), showing a significant difference between them ( Z=?2.64, P<0.05). The messenger RNA (mRNA) expression levels of DNM3 gene in 48 pairs of gastric cancer tissues and paired normal tissues of the author′s center were 4.370(2.870,6.040) and 2.520(0.850,4.170), showing a significant difference between them ( Z=?4.39, P<0.05). (2) Mutations and copy number alterations of DNM3 in gastric cancer. There were 16 gastric cancer patients in the TCGA-STAD database with DNM3 mutation or somatic copy number alterations, including 6 cases with missense mutations, 1 case with truncated mutation, 8 cases with copy number gain and 1 case with copy number loss. The mRNA expression levels of DNM3 gene before and after mutation in the 370 gastric cancer patients of the TCGA-STAD database were 6.13(5.40,7.08) and 5.02(3.98,5.46), showing a significant difference between them (Log 2FC=?1.11, Z=?2.59, P<0.05). (3) Methylation level of promoter of DNM3 in gastric cancer. There were 372 gastric cancer patients in the TCGA-STAD database undergoing DNM3 methylation and mRNA examinations, and the results showed that levels of methylation and mRNA expression of DNM3 was 0.198 (-0.458, 0.301) and 6.014 (5.141, 6.628), respectively. The levels of methylation in DNM3 was negatively correlated with its mRNA expression ( r=?0.38, P<0.05). Results of follow-up in 32 patients showed that the 3-year overall survival rate of 16 cases with high levels of methylation in DNM3 and 16 cases with low levels of methylation in DNM3 was 18.8% and 41.3%, respectively, showing a significant difference between them ( hazard ratio=1.40, P<0.05). Results of immunoblot-ting assay showed that the relative expression level of DNM3 protein in the AGS cells treated with 0, 0.5, and 1.0 μmol/L of 5-azacytidin was 0.270±0.020, 0.357±0.051 and 0.599±0.039, respectively, showing a significant difference among the three groups ( F=57.84, P<0.05). The relative expression level of DNM3 protein in the HGC-27 cells treated with 0, 0.5, and 1.0 μmol/L of 5-azacytidin was 0.316±0.038, 0.770±0.031 and 0.877±0.052, respectively, showing a significant difference among the three groups ( F=156.30, P<0.05). (4) Relative protein expression of DNM3 and p53 in gastric cancer. Results of immunoblotting assay showed that the relative expression of DNM3 and p53 protein was 0.688±0.047 and 0.872±0.041 in the AGS cells transfected with pCMV-DNM3 plasmid, versus 0.249±0.029 and 0.352±0.020 in the AGS cells transfected with control plasmid, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two types of cells ( t=13.77,19.74, P<0.05). The relative expression of DNM3 and p53 protein was 0.969±0.069 and 1.464±0.081 in the HGC-27 cells transfected with pCMV-DNM3 plasmid, versus 0.456±0.048 and 0.794±0.052 in the HGC-27 cells transfected with control plasmid, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two types of cells ( t=10.57, 12.06, P<0.05). (5) DNM3 correlation and enrichment analysis. Results of correlation analysis showed that DNM3 was positively correlated with genes such as RBMS3, CNTN4 and PDE1A ( r=0.52, 0.52, 0.50, P<0.05) and negatively correlated with genes such as SLC25A39, PAICS and GAPDH ( r=?0.41, ?0.40, ?0.40, P<0.05) in gastric cancer. Results of gene set enrichment analysis showed that the set of genes related to ribosome and oxidative phosphorylation were upregulated in gastric cancer patients with DNM3 low expression [normalized enrichment score (NES)=?3.30, ?2.16, P<0.05], while the set of genes related to immunomodulatory interactions between lymphocytes and non-lymphoid cells were upregulated in gastric cancer patients with DNM3 high expression (NES=1.67, P<0.05). Results of gene ontology analysis showed that the low expression of DNM3 was associated with the separation of mitotic sister chromatid (No.0000070), nonsense-mediation of nuclear transcriptional mRNA catabolic process, sister chromatid separation (No.0000819), nuclear transcriptional mRNA catabolic process and regulation of oxidative phos-phorylation (NES=?2.29, ?3.10, ?2.33, ?2.56, ?2.68, P<0.05). Results of Kyoto encycl opedia of genes and genomes analysis showed that metabolic pathway related to ribosome and oxidative phosphory-lation were upregulated and crosstalked in gastric cancer with low expression of DNM3 (NES=?3.34, ?2.21, P<0.05). (6) Ratio of G0/G1 phase, S phase and G2/M phase of cell cycle progression. Results of flow cytometric cell cycle experiments showed that the proportions of G0/G1 phase, S phase and G2/M phase in the cell cycle was 65.1%±3.0%, 17.3%±3.0% and 17.6%±1.0% in the AGS cells transfected with pCMV-DNM3 plasmid, versus 53.4%±4.0%, 26.3%±2.0% and 20.3%±3.0% in the AGS cells transfected with control plasmid, showing significant differences in the proportions of G0/G1 phase and S phase in the two types of cells ( t=4.05, 4.32, P<0.05). (7) Correlation between immune cell infiltration and DNM3 in gastric cancer. Results of immune cell infiltration examination showed that the expression level of DNM3 was positively associated with mast cells, NK cells, pDCs, B cells, follicular helper T cells, effector memory T cells, T cells, central memory T cells, CD8 T cells, DC cells, macrophages, γ-δ T cells (Tgd), iDCs and eosinophils infiltration (Spearman correlation coefficients as 0.41, 0.29, 0.26, 0.20, 0.22, 0.22, 0.13, 0.16, 0.15, 0.14, 0.14, 0.17, 0.18, 0.22, P<0.05) and negatively associated with Th17 cell, Th2 cells and NK CD56 dim cells infiltration ( r=?0.18, ?0.23, ?0.10, P<0.05). (8) Correlation between results of IHC staining and clinical features. Results of IHC staining analysis showed that the IHC score of DNM3 was 3(2,4) in the 105 gastric cancer tissues, versus 6(4,9) in the 105 paired normal tissues, showing a significant difference between them ( Z=-7.35, P<0.05). There were significant differences in gender, tumor location and N stating between the 70 patients with low expression of DNM3 and the 35 patients with high expression of DNM3 ( χ2=4.29, 7.67, 6.86, P<0.05). (9) Analysis of independent factors influencing 5-year overall survival rate of gastric cancer patients. Results of multivariate analysis showed that stage pT3?4 and low IHC score of DNM3 were independent risk factors for 5-year overall survival rate of gastric cancer patients ( hazard ratio=1.91, 0.51, 95% confidence interval as 1.06?3.43, 0.26?0.98, P<0.05). The 5-year overall survival rate was 44.3% in patients with low expression of DNM3, versus 65.7% in gastric cancer patients with high expression of DNM3, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=5.02, P<0.05). Conclusion:DNM3 is a tumor suppressor and an independent predictor of poor prognosis for gastric cancer, which may regulate gastric cancer cell cycle and immunosuppression in the tumor microenvironment through methylation.

Objective:This study aimed to investigate the viability and safety of a novel defecator in managing rectal fecal impaction.Methods:In a descriptive case series, this new defecator was administered to constipated individuals among the ages of 18 and 80 years who met the diagnostic criteria for rectal fecal impaction and were identified with acute rectal fecal impaction through CT scans. The contraindications for this defecator included: (1) Anal stenosis, acute intestinal obstruction, and intestinal perforation; (2) Concomitant rectal malignant tumors; (3) Coagulation dysfunction, low platelet counts, gastrointestinal bleeding, or other bleeding risks; (4) Patients with severe underlying conditions affecting the heart, brain, lungs, or other systems; (5) Individuals with mental health disorders. Based on these criteria, clinical data from 42 patients with rectal fecal impaction who underwent treatment with the new defecator at Deyang People's Hospital between July 2020 and April 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The defecator comprises three components: a head, a spiral rod, and a handle, constructed from disposable stainless steel wire. The treatment procedure involves the following steps: The patient assumes a flexed, supine position on their left side with their buttocks slightly protruding from the bed's edge. A transparent sealing bag is affixed to the buttocks, centered around the anus. With gloved hands inserted through the bag's entrance, a cotton ball soaked in liquid paraffin lubricates the anal canal and the head of the defecator's spiral rod. The defecator is then slowly rotated and inserted into the anus, with careful attention to any changes in resistance. Once the spiral rod is fully inserted, the patient is instructed to inhale and defecate while the defecator is slowly withdrawn, carrying the dislodged fecal matter, and depositing it into the sealed bag. This operation is repeated 2 to 3 times, followed by the injection of either 100 ml of 36°C normal saline or 60 ml of liquid paraffin into the rectum. After a 5 to 8-minute wait, the patient assumes a squatting position to expel any remaining feces from the rectum. The study assessed the operation time, single treatment success rate, pain levels during treatment, and the occurrence of complications.Results:All 42 patients successfully underwent treatment with the new defecator device, achieving a single treatment success rate of 100%. The average operation time was 11.0 minutes (range: 9.0 to 13.3 minutes). During treatment, 20 cases (47.6%) reported moderate to severe anal pain, with 1 case (2.4%) experiencing anal fissure bleeding, and 6 cases (14.3%) reporting discomfort such as palpitations and sweating. No serious complications, including rectal perforation, were observed in any case.Conclusion:The new defecator device demonstrates ease of use and safety, making it a feasible option for treating acute rectal fecal impaction.

OBJECT IVE To provide scientific evidence for the quality standard research of Qingyi mixture （QM）qualitatively and quantitatively. METHODS The high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC）fingerprint of QM was established ，and the chemical pattern recognition analysis was carried out. At the same time ，the contents of 8 components such as chlorogenic acid in the preparation were determined. The determination was performed on Agilent SB-C 18 column with 0.1％ phosphoric acid-acetonitrile as mobile phase （gradient elution ）at the flow rate of 0.6 mL/min. The column temperature was 35 ℃，and detection wavelength was set at 254 nm. Similarity Evaluation System of Chromatographic Fingerprint of Traditional Chinese Medicine（2012 edition），SPSS 20.0 and SIMCA 14.1 were used to perform similarity evaluation ，cluster analysis （CA），principle component analysis （PCA）and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA）of QM samples. RESULTS A total of 22 common peaks were calibrated by 15 batches of QM ，and the similarity was over 0.975. Twenty-two common peaks were assigned and 8 of them were identified. CA ，PCA and OPLS-DA divided the 15 batches of QM into two categories. Meanwhile，5 differential components were screened out ，i.e. peak 9（cichoric acid ），peak 14（baicalin），peak 18，peak 19 and peak 21 （baicalein）. The contents of 8 components，such as chlorogenic acid ，ferulic acid ，cichoric acid ，hesperidin， baicalin，salvianolic acid B ，baicalein and paeonol ，were 0.077-0.094，0.165-0.190，0.100-0.114，0.083-0.107，0.556-0.615，0.288-0.314，0.152-0.188 and 0.114-0.128 mg/g，respectively. CONCLUSIONS The established HPLC fingerprint and content determination method can provide reference for the quality standard research of QM.

Objective To investigate the correlation between total burden of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) and cognitive impairment in patients with acute basal ganglia infarction. Methods Patients with acute basal ganglia infarction for the first time were enrolled, and the general data of the enrolled patients were collected. Patients were assessed by Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA). Based on MoCA assessment, patients were then divided into cognitive impairment (CI) group and non-cognitive impairment (NCI) group. CSVD total load scores were conducted afterwards in order to analyze the correlation between the total load of different degrees of cerebral small vessel disease and cognitive impairment. Results A total of 178 patients were enrolled in this study: 135 in the CI group and 43 in the NCI group. There were significant differences in age (t=4.11, P=0.04) but not in high-density lipoprotein (t=2.92, P=0.09), and glycosylated hemoglobin C (t=3.02, P=0.08) between the two groups. The infarct volume was larger in the CI group (CI group: 424.72±36.55, NCI group: 227.02±34.62, t=4.022, P=0.046). There were significant differences in a sing1e lentiform nucleus (χ2=19.08, P<0.01), caudal Nucleus(χ2=9.97, P<0.01), infarction at the site of internal capsule(χ2=3.85, P=0.05), the infarct site involved lentiform nucleus, internal capsule and caudate nucleus at(χ2=4.30, P=0.04), and numbers of patients with moderate-to-severe internal carotid artery stenosis (χ2=4.14, P=0.04) as well as numbers of patients with moderate-to-severe intracranial artery stenosis (χ2=4.19, P=0.04). Similarly, there were significant differences in CSVD total burden (t=3.62, P<0.01), deep white matter hyperintensity (t=9.02, P<0.01), and cerebral microbleeds (t=5.54, P=0.02) between CI group and NCI group. The comparisons on MoCA score, visuospatial and execution, attention, language, generalization and abstraction, memory and orientation but not naming were statistically significant between the two groups. The logistic regression equation showed that CSVD total burden (OR=0.316, 95%Cl: 0.185~0.541, P<0.001), age (OR=0.924, 95%Cl: 0.884~0.967, P=0.001) and infarct volume (OR=0.924, 95%Cl: 0.884~0.967, P=0.001), (95%Cl: 1.000~1.003, P=0.047) was significantly associated with cognitive impairment in patients with acute basal ganglia infarction. Conclusion High CSVD total load score, older age and larger infarct volume may be risk factors for cognitive impairment in patients with acute basal ganglia infarction.

Platelets buoy up cancer metastasis via arresting cancer cells, enhancing their adhesion, and facilitating their extravasation through the vasculature. When deprived of intracellular and granular contents, platelet decoys could prevent metastatic tumor formation. Inspired by these, we developed nanoplatesomes by fusing platelet membranes with lipid membranes (P-Lipo) to restrain metastatic tumor formation more efficiently. It was shown nanoplateletsomes bound with circulating tumor cells (CTC) efficiently, interfered with CTC arrest by vessel endothelial cells, CTC extravasation through endothelial layers, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of tumor cells as nanodecoys. More importantly, in the mouse breast tumor metastasis model, nanoplateletsomes could decrease CTC survival in the blood and counteract metastatic tumor growth efficiently by inhibiting the inflammation and suppressing CTC escape. Therefore, nanoplatelesomes might usher in a new avenue to suppress lung metastasis.

Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in the world. China is still the country with the highest incidence of gastric cancer and most patients with gastric cancer are in locally advanced stage at the first diagnosis. Traditional radical surgery combined with post-operative adjuvant treatment is difficult to further improve the prognosis of patients. In recent years, the exploration and application of neoadjuvant treatment modes such as chemotherapy, radio-therapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy in locally advanced gastric cancer have made continuous progress. However, there is still no consensus on the benefit population, regimen options, and efficacy evaluation of neoadjuvant therapy. The authors review and comb the research progress and controversy of neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced gastric cancer.
