Objective:To observe and evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of albumin-bound paclitaxel as first-line treatment for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer in China, and to explore the prognosis-related molecules in pancreatic cancer based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) of tumor tissues.Methods:From December 2018 to December 2020, patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer were recruited to accept albumin-bound paclitaxel as first-line treatment in the oncology departments of 24 hospitals in East China. The primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and treatment related adverse events, and the secondary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Adverse effects were graded using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events 5.0 (CTCAE 5.0). NGS sequencing on the primary or metastatic tissue samples of pancreatic cancer obtained through surgical resection or biopsy was performed.Results:This study recruited 229 patients, including 70 patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) and 159 patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer (mPC). The disease control rate was 79.9% and the objective response rate is 36.3%.The common adverse effects during treatment were anaemia (159 cases), leucopenia (170 cases), neutropenia (169 cases), increased aminotransferases (110 cases), and thrombocytopenia (95 cases), and the incidence of grade 3-4 neutropenia is 12.2% (28/229). The median follow-up time was 21.2 months (95% CI: 18.5-23.1 months). The median PFS (mPFS) was 5.3 months (95% CI: 4.37-4.07 months) and the median OS (mOS) was 11.2 months (95% CI: 9.5-12.9 months). The mPFS of patients with LAPC was 7.4 months (95% CI: 6.6-11.2 months), and their mOS was 15.5 months (95% CI: 12.6-NA months). The mPFS of patients with mPC was 3.9 months (95% CI: 3.4-5.1 months), and their mOS was 9.3 months (95% CI: 8.0-10.8 months). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that clinical stage ( HR=1.47, 95% CI: 1.06-2.04), primary tumor site ( HR=0.64, 95% CI: 0.48-0.86), Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) score ( HR=2.66, 95% CI: 1.53-4.65), and whether to combine radiotherapy ( HR=0.65, 95% CI: 0.42-1.00) were independent influencing factors for the PFS of these patients. The primary tumor site ( HR=0.68, 95% CI: 0.48-0.95), ECOG score ( HR=5.82, 95% CI: 3.14-10.82), and whether to combine radiotherapy ( HR=0.58, 95% CI: 0.35-0.96) were independent influencing factors of the OS of these patients. The most frequent gene mutations in these advanced stage pancreatic patients were KRAS (89.66%), TP53 (77.01%), CDKN2A (32.18%), and SMAD4 (21.84%) by NGS of tumor tissues from 87 pancreatic cancer patients with sufficient specimens. Further analysis revealed that mutations in CDKN2B, PTEN, FGF6, and RBBP8 genes were significantly associated with an increased risk of death ( P＜0.05). Conclusion:Albumin-bound paclitaxel as first-line treatment demonstrated feasible anti-tumor efficacy and manageable safety for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer in China.

Background and objective Both of lung cancer incidence and mortality rank first among all cancers in China.Previous lung cancer screening trials were mostly selective screening for high-risk groups such as smokers.Non-smoking women accounted for a considerable proportion of lung cancer cases in Asia.This study aimed to evaluate the outcome of community-based mass screening in Guangzhou and identify the high-risk factors for lung cancer.Methods Residents aged 40-74 years in Guangzhou were screened with low-dose computed tomography(LDCT)for lung cancer and the pulmonary nodules were classified and managed according to China National Lung Cancer Screening Guideline with Low-dose Computed Tomography(2018 version).The detection rate of positive nodules was calculated.Before the LDCT examination,residents were required to complete a"lung cancer risk factors questionnaire".The risk factors of the questionnaire were analyzed by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)penalized Logistic regression analysis.Results A total of 6256 residents were included in this study.1228 positive nodules(19.63％)and 117 lung cancers were confirmed,including 6 cases of Tis,103 cases of stage Ⅰ(accounting for 88.03％of lung cancer).The results of LASSO penalized Logistic regression analysis indicated that age ≥50 yr(OR=1.07,95％CI:1.06-1.07),history of cancer(OR=3.29,95％CI:3.22-3.37),textile industry(OR=1.10,95％CI:1.08-1.13),use coal for cooking in childhood(OR=1.14,95％CI:1.13-1.16)and food al-lergy(OR=1.10,95％CI:1.07-1.13)were risk factors of lung cancer for female in this district.Conclusion This study highlighted that numerous early stages of lung cancer cases were detected by LDCT,which could be applied to screen-ing of lung cancer in women.Besides,age ≥50 yr,personal history of cancer,textile industry and use coal for cooking in childhood are risk factors for women in this district,which suggested that it's high time to raise the awareness of early lung cancer screening in this group.

ObjectiveTo systematically analyze international disability data policies and standards, as well as the application of disability data in policymaking, service optimization and inclusive social development, and to clarify the importance of international disability data policies, standard systems and disability data application for the development of disability-related services. MethodsThrough the analysis of policy content and research on the data standard system, this study explored the disability data policy framework, standard system and technical path of data interoperability and integration of international organizations including the United Nations (United Nations Statistics Division and United Nations Children's Fund), World Health Orgnization, United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization, and International Labour Organization. ResultsInternational organizations established disability data policy frameworks based on their respective mandates, involving data and service development, data standards, data governance, and data application. The international community established a disability data standard system for disability data collection, coding, exchange, interoperability, statistical analysis, data fusion and application. Building a standardized disability data standard system based on the framework of international health classification standards such as International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health, and International Classification of Diseases, Eleventh Revision would ensure the consistency of cross-national disability data policies, and the interoperability and comparability of disability data, promoting the development of data-driven disability-related services, accurately identifying the service needs of people with disabilities, and optimizing service provision, thereby improving the quality of life and social participation of people with disabilities. ConclusionThe construction and implementation of international disability data policies and data standards have promoted the standardization and interoperability of disability data. With the application of big data, artificial intelligence and blockchain technologies in disability data, international cooperation and cross-industry data fusion in the field of disability data have been promoted, further promoting the development of data-driven disability services, ensuring equal opportunities for people with disabilities to enjoy service resources, and improving the coverage and quality of disability services.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to develop a comprehensive instrument for evaluating and ranking clinical practice guidelines, named Scientific, Transparent and Applicable Rankings tool (STAR), and test its reliability, validity, and usability. METHODS: This study set up a multidisciplinary working group including guideline methodologists, statisticians, journal editors, clinicians, and other experts. Scoping review, Delphi methods, and hierarchical analysis were used to develop the STAR tool. We evaluated the instrument's intrinsic and interrater reliability, content and criterion validity, and usability. RESULTS: STAR contained 39 items grouped into 11 domains. The mean intrinsic reliability of the domains, indicated by Cronbach's α coefficient, was 0.588 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.414, 0.762). Interrater reliability as assessed with Cohen's kappa coefficient was 0.774 (95% CI: 0.740, 0.807) for methodological evaluators and 0.618 (95% CI: 0.587, 0.648) for clinical evaluators. The overall content validity index was 0.905. Pearson's r correlation for criterion validity was 0.885 (95% CI: 0.804, 0.932). The mean usability score of the items was 4.6 and the median time spent to evaluate each guideline was 20 min. CONCLUSION The instrument performed well in terms of reliability, validity, and efficiency, and can be used for comprehensively evaluating and ranking guidelines.

Objective : Viral load is becoming more and more important in prevention of HIV/AIDS. Understanding the baseline of viral load before treatment in newly reported HIV/AIDS patients can provide a basis for AIDS prevention. Methods : The viral load of newly reported HIV/AIDS patients in Jiangsu province in 2019 was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR , the differences of viral load under different demographic characteristics were compared , and the factors of high viral load were analyzed. Results : he mean viral load of 3098 newly reported HIV/AIDS patients in Jiangsu province was 4. 33 ± 1. 05 log/mL , and the proportion of patients with viral load < 5000 copies/mL was 20. 85% (646/3 098) . There were statistically significant differences in viral load among different genders (P < 0. 05) , and male patients had higher viral load. The difference of viral load between HIV⁃infected and AIDS patients was statistically significant (P < 0. 05) , and the viral load value of AIDS patients diagnosed with disease status was relatively high. Unmarried and married spouses were more likely to have higher viral load than divorced or widowed spouses. Higher baseline viral load level was associated with higher rates of virologic failure after antiviral therapy. Conclusion The overall viral load of HIV infected /AIDS patients is high , but there is a certain proportion of low viral load , suggesting that follow⁃up of low viral load should be strengthened in AIDS prevention and treatment. Strengthen interventions aimed at men and unmarried or married people with spouses to reduce the risk of transmission.

Objective:To construct the prognostic prediction model and scoring tool by using severe trauma patients’ physiological indicators on admission, and to verify the clinical application effect and provide a reference for the early evaluation of severe trauma patients.Methods:This study was a retrospective study which adopted cluster sampling. Patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria in the emergency department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from September 2019 to November 2020 were included. Patients were randomly assigned into the modeling group and the validation group in a ratio of 7:3 based on their outcome in the emergency department. Logistic regression analysis was performed to construct a prediction model, which was simplified as a scoring tool. The model was verified by using validation group and two months’ prospective validation. The efficiency of the simplified scoring tool was compared with that of the revised trauma score (RTS) and the injury severity score (ISS).Results:Totally 863 patients were included in this study, including 604 patients in the modeling group and 259 patients in the validation group. The model included systolic blood, SpO 2 and AVPU score. The AUC for predicting the death of severe trauma patients was 0.938. The AUC of the prediction model was 0.933, the best cut-off point was 5, the sensitivity was 86.7%, the specificity was 94.2%; the AUC of the validation was 0.885, the sensitivity was 83.3%, the specificity was 93.7%; and the AUC of prospective validation was 0.919, the sensitivity was 100%, and the specificity was 76.7%. The AUC of the RTS and ISS were 0.800 and 0.833, respectively. The AUC of RTS was lower than that of the simplified scoring tool constructed in this research. Conclusions:The prediction model and simplified scoring tool are better than RTS in predicting the outcome of emergency severe trauma patients, which are convenient for emergency medical staff to evaluate the severity of trauma patients.

Objective:To explore whether the introduction of the O-PIRTAS (objective, preparation, instructive vedio, review, test, activity, summary) teaching model can help in curriculum learning and improve students' medical humanities literacy.Methods:Taking 118 sophomores of clinical medicine and nursing majors from Xiamen Medical College as control group, and 122 students as experimental group and as control group, the research lasting 8 weeks was carried out around five modules. The control group adopted the traditional teaching mode, while the experimental group used the O-PIRTAS model. After teaching, by comparing the exam results and issuing questionnaires, the teaching effects of the two methods on students' caring ability, empathy, emotional intelligence and supportive communication ability were compared. SPSS 22.0 was used for t test and chi-square test. Results:The average score of the experimental group [(83.61±2.13) points] was higher than that of the control group [(78.03±2.02) points], with significant differences ( t=3.60, P<0.001). As for the statistical analysis of the questionnaire, the students in experimental group scored higher in empathy, emotional intelligence and supportive communication skills than those in control group ( t=-3.20, P=0.002; t=-3.93, P<0.001; t=-4.00, P<0.001). Conclusion:Applying O-PIRTAS flipped classroom teaching model to medical humanities English courses helps to improve students' curriculum learning and medical humanities literacy, improve the effectiveness of the classroom and better play the educational role of the curriculum.

Objective: To analyze the CD4+T cell count level of newly diagnosed HIV infected patients in Jiangsu province, and to understand their immune status and disease progression so as to provide scientific basis for HIV prevention and control strategy in the whole province. Methods: Flow cytometry was used to detect the absolute count of CD4+T lymphocytes in newly diagnosed patients who had not initiated ART in 2020. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the associated factors of CD4+T cell count. Results: In 2020, there were 2 175 new diagnosed cases with HIV infection in Jiangsu Province. Patients under 30 years old, infected by homosexual transmission, unmarried, with college degree or above, students, diagnosed in counseling and testing and floating population had a higher absolute count level of CD4+T cell count(P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that people aged ≥30 and diagnosed in medical institutions were more likely to be presented lately(P<0.05). Conclusion In recent years, the intervention strategy for men who had sex with men(MSM) in Jiangsu province had achieved remarkable results.In the future, much more attention should be paid for the population over or equal to 30 years old, married or divorced, infected by heterosexual transmission, with high school education or below, farmers or migrant workers, retirees and diagnosed in medical institutions so that the PITC service should be promoted, and the publicity and intervention should be strengthened to present cases as soon as possible.
