【Objective:】 To investigate the cognition, attitude and influencing factors of hospice care among high school students in Guangzhou, and to provide basis for improving the understanding level of hospice care and death education among adolescents. 【Methods:】 A total of 226 questionnaires were collected by convenient sampling and questionnaire survey. The questionnaire covered two parts: basic information of the respondents, cognition and attitude towards hospice care (including four dimensions: basic knowledge of hospice care, knowledge of pain control, attitude and thought of hospice care, and attitude towards hospice care education). Excel software was used to preliminary screen, preprocess and establish database of data. SPSS21.0 was used for statistical analysis. T-test and ANOVA were used for difference analysis, multiple linear regression was used for correlation analysis. 【Results:】 High school students had a basic understanding of hospice care. Among the four dimensions of basic knowledge of hospice care, knowledge of pain control, attitude and thought of hospice care, and attitude towards hospice care education, the cognition of "knowledge of pain control" dimension was the weakest link, and the entry of "attitude and thought of hospice care" had the highest score, which was the strong cognitive link. 【Conclusion:】 The main influencing factors of high school students’ cognition of hospice care were family structure, family residence and whether they have understood hospice care. This paper recommended that schools should add medical humanities education courses related to hospice and death education, and cooperate with hospice care centers to carry out hospice care experience practices. It was also suggested that relevant departments or organizations should make full use of mainstream media, such as online media and WeChat public accounts, to strengthen the popularity and popularization of hospice care education and science popularization from multiple channels and aspects, and improve the level and quality of hospice care education for young people.

Objective:To investigate the clinical utility of 68Ga-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) PET/CT in the detection of primary and metastatic gastric signet-ring cell carcinoma (GSRCC) and compared the results with those of 18F-FDG PET/CT. Methods:A total of 21 patients (10 males, 11 females, average age 52 years) with primary and metastatic GSRCC who underwent 68Ga-FAPI and 18F-FDG PET/CT at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University from June 2020 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Pathological results of surgery and (or) biopsy were used as the " gold standard" for final diagnosis. In cases whose surgery or tissue biopsies were not available, clinical and radiographic follow-up results were used as the reference standards. Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare the SUV max of 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAPI. McNemar χ2 test was used to compare the detection rate between 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT. Results:68Ga-FAPI PET/CT showed higher SUV max than 18F-FDG in primary tumors (5.3(2.4, 15.7) vs 2.4(1.8, 2.5); z=2.31, P=0.021), local recurrences (7.8(6.0, 8.9) vs 2.4(1.9, 3.4); z=2.20, P=0.028), lymph nodes metastases (7.7(4.5, 12.2) vs 2.4(1.9, 3.6); z=6.01, P<0.001) and bone/visceral metastases (6.7(5.3, 11.1) vs 2.4(2.0, 3.4); z=11.36, P<0.001). Regarding diagnostic accuracy, 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT showed higher sensitivities than 18F-FDG for primary tumors (7/9 vs 2/9; χ2=3.20, P=0.063) and local recurrences (7/7 vs 2/7; χ2=3.20, P=0.063). It also demonstrated higher lesion detection rates than 18F-FDG for suspicious lymph node metastases (86%(65/76) vs 32%(24/76); χ2=31.37, P<0.001) and bone/visceral metastases (99%(184/185) vs 39%(73/185); χ2=107.08, P<0.001). Conclusions:68Ga-FAPI PET/CT showed higher tumor uptake and lesion detection rate than 18F-FDG in the primary and metastatic GSRCC. 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT demonstrates good diagnostic performance for tumor detection, staging, and restaging of GSRCC, which is helpful to further guide clinical treatment strategy.

Acute lung injury (ALI), as a common clinical emergency, is pulmonary edema and diffuse lung infiltration caused by inflammation. The lack of non-invasive alert strategy, resulting in failure to carry out preventive treatment, means high mortality and poor prognosis. Stimulator of interferon genes (STING) is a key molecular biomarker of innate immunity in response to inflammation, but there is still a lack of STING-targeted strategy. In this study, a novel STING-targeted PET tracer, [¹⁸F]FBTA, was labeled with high radiochemical yield (79.7 ± 4.3%) and molar activity (32.5 ± 2.9 GBq/μmol). We confirmed that [¹⁸F]FBTA has a strong STING binding affinity (K_d = 26.86 ± 6.79 nmol/L) and can be used for PET imaging in ALI mice to alert early lung inflammation and to assess the efficacy of drug therapy. Our STING-targeted strategy also reveals that [¹⁸F]FBTA can trace ALI before reaching the computed tomography (CT) diagnostic criteria, and demonstrates its better specificity and distribution than [¹⁸F]fluorodeoxyglucose ([¹⁸F]FDG).

Objective:To analyze the social family factors influencing language delay in children with the age ranging from 18 to 42 months in Xiamen.Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted to evaluate children with language delay (case group) and normal controls (control group) in Child Health Clinic and Developmental Behavior Clinic of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University between July 2017 and July 2019 via a self-made questionnaire and a language development scale, and the case-control ratio was 1∶4.The chi- square test, Logistic regression and generalized multifactor dimensionality reduction (GMDR) were adopted for statistical analysis, and the correction analysis was performed with Bonferroni correction. Results:A total of 126 children with language delay were collected in the case group, with the ratio of male to female being 2.05∶1.00. The control group was included 504 cases.There was no significant difference in gender and age between both groups.The chi- square test showed that there were statistical differences in maternal culture and screen time distribution between both groups ( P<0.05/13). Besides, the multivariate Logistic regression analysis suggested that significant risk factors for language delay in children included maternal culture, maternal-child interaction, and screen time.The GMDR analysis showed that screen time was the optimal single-mode for children at risk of language delay, while maternal culture and screen time constituted a statistically different two-factor model.Moreover, the marital-child interaction was included into the three-factor model. Conclusions:Screen time and maternal culture were the most important risk factors for language delay in children of Xiamen, and both factors would interact with maternal-child interaction, which could exert impacts on language delay in children.

Objective To investigate the expression of apolipoprotein (Apo) F in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its application value in the prognosis of patients with HCC. Methods 50 HCC samples were procured from patients undergoing surgical resection in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between September 2015 and September 2016, and all the samples were confirmed by postoperative pathological examination. The informed consents of all patients were obtained and the local ethical committee approval was received. There were 37 males and 13 females, aged from 31-67 with a median age of 53 years old. The expression of ApoF mRNA in HCC tissues was detected by RT-PCR. The expression profile was analyzed by using data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). The expression of ApoF between two groups were compared by t test. Correlation analysis of clinical related parameter was conducted by Chi-square test, and survival prognosis was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier test and Log rank test. Results The average relative expression of ApoF mRNA in HCC tissues was 0.15±0.07, significantly lower than 0.55±0.09 in the adjacent tissues (t=-6.26, P<0.05). GEO online analysis showed that expression of ApoF was significantly correlated with the status of liver cirrhosis, and most HCC patients with liver cirrhosis presented low expression of ApoF (χ2=4.626, P<0.05). The 5-year disease-free survival was respectively 55.9% and 32.0% in ApoF high expression group and low expression group, where significant difference was observed (χ2=3.939, P<0.05). Conclusions Low expression of ApoF exists in HCC tissues, and it is related to the liver cirrhosis status of patients. Patients with low ApoF expression present poorer prognosis. ApoF plays a role in inhibiting the cancer.

Objective To explore the correlation between resistins rs2161490and rs1423096 genotype with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)in Guangdong.Methods Collected 178 blood of newly diagnosed T2DM in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 2015 to November 2015 as the patient group and 192 blood of healthy physi-cal examination as the control group.Analysis of the two groups of gene distribution frequency was to reach the genetic equi-librium,comparative two gene loci frequencies of resistin rs2161490 and rs1423096 in case group and control group was sta-tistically significant,and compared the distribution frequency of rs2161490 locus T→C and rs1423096 locus A→G between the patient group and the control group.Then made a logistic regression analysis:analysing the risk two loci each genotype of resistin rs2161490 and rs1423096 to T2DM,adjust of the gender and age,and the changes of the risk of the two variables. Comparative blood lipids biochemical indexes between case group and the control group,mode the correlation analysis be-tween TG,CHOL,HDL-C and LDL-C levels of serum lipids in patients with rs2161490 and rs1423096 each genotypewere performed.Results The sample was consistent with Weinberg Hardy’s law of inheritance,which was representative of the population,comparing two gene loci frequency of resistin rs2161490 and rs1423096 of case group and control group:com-parinng CT,TT,CC of rs2161490 genotype,there was no statistically significant difference (P=0.834,>0.05),and com-parinng AA,AG,GG of rs2161490 genotype,there was no statistically significant difference (P=0.960,>0.05).Each gen-otypes with T2DM risk analysis,there was no statistically significant difference(P>0.05).Adjusting the risk change after the two variables,gender and age,there was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05);TG,CHOL,HDL-C and LDL-C in each of the genes expression levels correlation analysis,there was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).Con-clusion Analysis results showed that the frequency of two loci all genotypes in the case group and control group were no statistical significance (P>0.05).The risk of two loci gene type of rs2161490 with rs1423096 and type 2 diabetes were be-fore and after the covariate adjustment had no statistical significance (P>0.05 ).Each genotype of rs2161490 with rs1423096 and lipid levels had no statistical significance (P>0.05).Thus infer that two genotypes is not risk for type 2 dia-betes genes in guangdong area.

Objective:To search for potential protein biomarkers of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and thyroid borderline lesion. Dif-ferentially expressed proteins between the two were analyzed and identified. Methods:A total of 118 cases of thyroid resection sam-ples were obtained from patients who underwent surgery at the First People's Hospital of Yunnan Province from April 2013 to Febru-ary 2015. Experimental groups included 43 PTCs (40 classic and 3 follicular variants) and 33 thyroid borderline lesions (with equivocal PTC type nuclear features and papillary structure, but without metastasis, and lacking capsular or vascular invasion;8 cases with atypi-cal adenoma), respectively. The control group included 42 normal thyroid tissues adjacent to carcinoma. The total protein extracts from frozen thyroid samples of 10 cases in each group were profiled with 2D electrophoresis. The differential protein spots were then revealed by PDQUEST 7.3 software and identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-fight/time-of-fight mass spec-trometry and Swiss-Prot database search. Six differentially expressed proteins of these spots were further validated using 118 samples through immunohistochemistry. Results:A set of 24 differentially expressed spots significant in discriminating between the sample groups were found, and 18 proteins were identified. Immunohistochemistry revealed the following six proteins located in the cyto-plasm:keratin, type II cytoskeletal 8 (CK8);keratin, type I cytoskeletal 18 (CK18);60 kDa heat shock protein (HSP60);actin, cytoplasmic 2 (γ-actin);14-3-3 protein beta/alpha (14-3-3β/α);and 14-3-3 protein epsilon (14-3-3ε). All six proteins were overexpressed in PTC compared with normal tissues (P<0.001). Meanwhile, CK8, CK18, HSP60, andγ-actin were overexpressed in PTC compared with bor-derline lesions (P<0.01). Except for CK8, the five other proteins were overexpressed in borderline lesions compared with normal tis-sues (P<0.001). Conclusion:Proteomic analysis is useful in searching for new biomarkers of PTC and thyroid borderline lesion. The ex-pression patterns of these differentially expressed proteins can be further validated using immunohistochemistry. The newly identified protein biomarkers can positively contribute to early PTC diagnosis.

Objective To explore the relationships between resistin rs1477341 , rs3219175 and type2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Guangdong. Methods 180 patients of diagnosed T2DM in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 2013 to December 2014 were enrolled in the study as the treatment group and another 180 subjects taking health examination as the control group. The genotype distributions of rs1477341 locus A/T, rs3219175 locus A/G were compared and the relationship between the genotypes and T2DM were anlysed by the logistic regression. Results The frequencies of the rs1477341, rs3219175 locus genotype reached the genetic equilibrium, showed their representativeness of a population group. The frequency distribution of rs1477341 genotype was statistically insignificant across the two groups (P > 0.05). The frequency of rs3219175 genotype AA+AG was decreased while genotype GG increased significantly compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The logistic regression results suggest genotype GG may increase disease risk of T2DM which the morbidity rate of AG homozygote was 0.630 times as high as that of GG homozygote (OR =0.630, 95%CI:0.405 ~ 0.980, P < 0.05) and the morbidity rate of GG homozygote was 1.551 times as higher as that of AA+AG homozygote (OR = 1.551, 95%CI:1.016 ~ 2.368, P < 0.05). Conclusions rs1477341 genotype has no correlation with T2DM among the population in Guangdong , but rs3219175 genotype does. GG may have a higher susceptibility to T2DM.
