Abstract
Background The cachexia index (CXI) has been proposed as a novel biomarker of cancer cachexia. We aimed to investigate the association between CXI and survival outcomes after stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and brain metastases. Methods Data from 145 patients with NSCLC, who underwent SRT for brain metastases between April 2016 and August 2020, were retrospectively analyzed. Cachexia index was calculated as skeletal muscle index (SMI) × serum albumin level/neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, whereas SMI was calculated from computed tomography images captured at the L1 level. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). The prognostic values of CXI and other cachexia biomarkers were assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results Lower pretreatment CXI (<30.8) was significantly associated with older age (P = .039), lower Karnofsky performance score (P = .009), and a high likelihood of extracranial metastases (P = .001). Patients with a lower pretreatment CXI had a significantly shorter PFS and OS than those with a higher CXI (P < .001). Multivariate analysis revealed that pretreatment CXI was an independent risk factor for both PFS, hazard ratio (HR) = 2.375; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.610-3.504; P < .001, and OS, HR = 2.340; 95% CI = 1.562-3.505; P < .001. Compared with other biomarkers, pretreatment CXI had the highest area under the ROC curve value for prognostic assessment, reaching 0.734. Moreover, the loss of CXI was a strong risk factor for survival independent of pretreatment CXI (P = .011). Conclusions Cachexia index may serve as a clinically useful tool for predicting survival outcomes of patients with NSCLC and brain metastases who undergo SRT.

Abstract
Silicosis is an occupational lung disease caused by inhaling silica dust. The disease is characterized by early lung inflammation and late irreversible pulmonary fibrosis. Here we report the effect of Baicalin, a main flavonoid compound from the roots of Chinese herbal medicine Huang Qin on silicosis in a rat model. Results showed Baicalin (50 or 100 mg/kg/day) can mitigate the silica-induced lung inflammation and reduce the harm of alveolar structure and the blue region of collagen fibers in rat lung at 28 days after administration. At the same time, Baicalin also diminished the level of interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta, interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) in lung tissues. The protein expression of collagen I (Col-1), alpha-smooth muscle actin (alpha-SMA) and vimentin were down-regulated while E-cadherin (E-cad) was increased in Baicalin-treated rats. In addition, the Toll Like Receptor 4 (TLR4)/ nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) pathway was enabled at 28 days after silica infusion, and the treatment of Baicalin diminished the expression of TLR4 and NF-?B in the lungs of rat with silicosis. These results suggested that Baicalin inhibited the pulmonary inflammatory and fibrosis in a rat model of silicosis, which could be attributed to inhibition of the TLR4/NF-kappaB pathway.

Abstract
Objective To explore the corrective effect of 6 degree of freedom couch on rotation errors in intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for postoperative rectal cancer patients, further to probe into the clinical application value of 6 degree of freedom couch in radiotherapy. Methods From January 1, 2020 to December 1, 2020, 30 patients with rectal cancer receiving postoperative intensity modulated radiotherapy in The First Hospital of Hebei Medical University were included in this retrospective study. The setup error values in all direction of patients before and after 6 degree of freedom correction were collected during each radiotherapy session. Results In this study, a total of 382 data before and after the correction of 6 degree of freedom couch were collected. It was found that the setup errors in the Y direction gradually increased, was maximal in the third week, and then became smaller, and the setup errors in the other directions increased with the extension of radiotherapy time and reached the maximum at the 5th week. In the translation direction, the setup errors value in Z direction occurred more frequently than that in X and Y directions between the range of 0.21-0.80 cm. In the rotation direction, the setup errors value in rotation X direction occurred more frequently than that in rotation Y and Z directions between the range of 0.21°-2.99°. In addition, after the correction of the 6 degree of freedom couch in real time, the setup errors in patients were significantly reduced in all directions (P < 0.05). Conclusion In summary, it was recommended to clinically use 6 degree of freedom couch combined with IMRT for real-time correction of placement errors in patients with rectal cancer undergoing radiotherapy. At the same time, it was necessary to observe the tumor size and body weight changes of patients on the 5th week. If necessary, radiotherapy positioning and planning should be performed in time.

Abstract
Background Gastric signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) has shown a growth growing trend worldwide, but its clinicopathological features and prognostic-related risk factors have not been systematically studied. This systematic review was devoted to this. Method PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were retrieved, and retrospective cohort studies comparing clinicopathological features and related risk factors in SRCC patients were included. Results In SRCC patient population, males were more than females (male, OR = 1.38, 95% CI: 1.20-1.60); N3 patients were more than N0-2 patients (N0-2, OR = 3.19, 95% CI: 1.98-5.15); M1 patients were more than M0 patients (M0, OR = 3.30, 95% CI: 1.88-5.80); patients with tumor > 5 cm were more than those with tumor (≤5 cm, OR = 7.36, 95% CI: 1.33-40.60). Patients with age < 60 years (age ≥ 60 years, OR = 1.03, 95% CI: 1.01-1.05), lymphatic vessel invasion (no, OR = 1.74, 95% CI: 1.03-2.45), T2 (T1, OR = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.07-1.28) and T4 (T1, OR = 2.55, 95% CI: 2.30-2.81) stages, and N1 (N0, OR = 1.73, 95% CI: 1.08-2.38), N2 (N0, OR = 2.24, 95% CI: 1.12-3.36), and N3 (N0, OR = 3.45, 95% CI: 1.58-5.32) stages had higher hazard ratio (HR). Conclusion SRCC may occur frequently in male. Age, lymphatic vessel invasion, TN, and M stage may be risk factors for poor prognoses of SRCC patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study aimed to explore the effects of image-guided adaptive radiotherapy combined with hepatic artery chemoembolization on the immune function of primary liver cancer patients. METHODS The study included 84 primary liver cancer patients who received treatment at our hospital between April 2018 and January 2020. They were divided into the control group (n=42, hepatic artery chemoembolization) and the study group (n=42, image-guided adaptive radiotherapy combined with hepatic artery chemoembolization) using the random number table method. AFP, ALT, AST, CA724, CA242 and immune function before and after treatment were compared in the two groups and the short-term efficacy and adverse events (AEs) were statistically analyzed. The two groups were followed up. RESULTS After treatment, the study group had a higher ORR and DCR compared to the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). There was no statistical difference in the levels of AFP, ALT, AST, CA724 and CA242 between the two groups before treatment (P > 05). After treatment, the study group had lower levels of AFP, ALT, AST, CA724 and CA242 than the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). There was no statistical difference in the levels of CD4+, CD8+, and CD4+/CD8+ before treatment in the two groups (P > 05). After treatment, the study group had higher levels of CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ but lower levels of CD8+ compared to the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). In the study group, 2 patients developed radiation-induced liver disease, and the incidence was 4.76% (2/42), which occurred at 4 and 6 weeks after the end of radiotherapy, respectively. The patients mainly had elevated transaminases, ascites, and liver enlargement and hepatoprotection and nutritional support were provided, and the patients gradually recovered after treatment. There was no statistical difference in the incidence of AEs between the two groups (p > 0.05). All patients in the study completed follow up and the follow up completion rate was 100%. The median duration of follow up was 22.5 months. In the study group, 12 of 42 patients (28.57%) died and 21 cases (50.00%) had recurrence. In the control group, 21 of 42 cases (50.00%) died and 27 cases (64.29%) recurred. At 1 year, there was no statistical difference in ORR and DCR between the two groups (P > 0.05) and at 2 years, the study group had a higher ORR and DCR than the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Image-guided adaptive radiotherapy combined with hepatic artery chemoembolization may improve the immune function of primary liver cancer patients and is of important clinical application value.

Abstract
Background To compare the clinical outcomes of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and fractionated radiation therapy (FRT) for primary liver cancer with portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT). Methods This retrospective study included 36 patients who underwent SBRT and 36 patients who underwent FRT from August 2016 to June 2018. Patients were evaluated for short-term efficacy, long-term efficacy, AEs, and quality of life before and after treatment.
Results With a median follow-up of 28.8 months (26–36 months), 27 patients survived in the SBRT group while 19 patients survived in the FRT group. The survival rate in the SBRT group was statistically higher than that of the FRT group after 6 months (80.56% vs. 58.33%; P = 0.041), 12 months (77.78% vs. 55.56%; P = 0.046) and 24 months 75.00% vs. 52.78%; P = 0.049). The median whole survival time of the SBRT group was 13.3 months (95% CI 12.83–13.97), which was statistically longer than 9.8 months in the FRT group (95% CI 8.83–10.97, P < 0.05) based on the Kaplan–Meier method. The SBRT group had better survival quality and fewer adverse events than the FRT group. Conclusion SBRT had better clinical outcomes than FRT for primary liver cancer with PVTT.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the radio sensitization of docetaxel in human esophageal squamous carcinoma ECA109 cell line by observing the effects of docetaxel in ECA109 cell proliferation, cell cycle distribution, apoptosis rate and related protein expression. Docetaxel inhibits the proliferation in ECA109 cell line in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner, and 1nM was chosen for radio sensitization according to the inhibition curves. The D0 and SF2 values of ECA109 cells were 3.00Gy and 0.95, respectively, and of docetaxel (1nM) with irradiation group were 2.54Gy and 0.88. G0/G1 decreased (P<0.05), G2/M phase saw a spike (P<0.05) in the docetaxel with radiation group at 12h, 24h and 48h, while the apoptotic index witnessed a surge at 24h and 48h (P<0.05). The docetaxel with radiation group obtained a higher expression of p21 and bax protein than the docetaxel group and the radiation group (P<0.05), and a higher ratio of bcl-2/bax than the others (P<0.05). Docetaxel could inhibit the proliferation in ECA109 cell line. p21, bax, bcl-2 and other related proteins can regulate cell cycle phase distribution and induce cell apoptosis, thereby increasing the radiosensitivity effect of docetaxel in ECA109 cell line.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Our study aimed to investigate the clinical efficacy of argon-helium cryoablation and its effects on the immune function of patients with neck malignant tumours. DESIGN Retrospective study. SETTING Single-institution academic tertiary care centre. METHODS Totally, 180 patients harbouring head and neck malignant tumours were divided into the argon-helium cryoablation group (n = 150) and the radiotherapy group (n = 50). The efficacy of the two groups was compared, and the immune function was observed. RESULTS The short-term clinical effect of the argon-helium cryoablation group was significantly higher than that of the radiotherapy group (P < .05). After treatment, the CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ and CD4+/CD8+ of the argon-helium cryoablation group were significantly better than those of the radiotherapy group (P < .001). The results of TNF-α, IL-1 β and CRP in the argon-helium cryoablation group were significantly better than that in the radiotherapy group (P < .001). CONCLUSION Argon-helium cryoablation could effectively improve the immune function, 5-year survival rate and local remission rate.

Abstract
Objective:To further explore the prognostic effects of Heparanase(HPA) and NF-E2 related factor (NRF2) on smoking related laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma,we detect the expression of HPA and NRF2 on smoking related laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma patients.Method:Continuously collected 84 patients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma in the Ningde Hospital from 2014 to 2015.All patients were divided into three groups according to smoking index:group A (severe smoking patients with laryngeal carcinoma 30 cases),group B(mild to moderate smokers 20 cases) and group C (no smoking in laryngeal carcinoma patients with 34 cases).Antioxidative indices in serum and the expression of HPA and NRF2 in three groups of patients were detected, and to explore their relationship with prognosis and clinical staging of patients.Result:The HPA and NRF2 were highly expressed in the cancer tissues of patients with stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ,while the expression of HPA and NRF2 in patients with stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ was low. The expression level of NRF2 in group A was significantly higher than that of group Band group C(P <0.05) as well as the NRF2 expression levels in higher stage patients with laryngeal cancer were higher than those of low stages.The expression of HPA and NRF2 is related to the pathological stage in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma patients(P <0.05).Conclusion:Compared with non smoking patients, severe smoking patients with laryngeal cancer will face more severe oxidative stress. The expression of HPA and NRF2 in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma patients is related to the pathological stage.

Abstract
We present the ioChem-BD platform ( www.iochem-bd.org ) as a multiheaded tool aimed to manage large volumes of quantum chemistry results from a diverse group of already common simulation packages. The platform has an extensible structure. The key modules managing the main tasks are to (i) upload of output files from common computational chemistry packages, (ii) extract meaningful data from the results, and (iii) generate output summaries in user-friendly formats. A heavy use of the Chemical Mark-up Language (CML) is made in the intermediate files used by ioChem-BD. From them and using XSL techniques, we manipulate and transform such chemical data sets to fulfill researchers' needs in the form of HTML5 reports, supporting information, and other research media.

Abstract
To better understand the microbial basis of oral malodor development in humans, we used a cross-sectional and longitudinal study design and the pyrosequencing approach to track and compare the tongue microbiota associated with oral malodor in 29 Chinese adults who underwent a consecutive three-day evaluation for the amount of H2S excreted orally. Three levels of the oral malodor state (healthy, oral malodor, and severe oral malodor) were defined based on the H2S level. Community structure of the tongue plaques was more sensitive to changes of malodor state than to interpersonal variations or differences in sampling times. Within each individual, the structure of microbiota was relatively stable, while their variations were correlated with the change in the H2S level. Severe oral malodor microbiota were the most conserved in community structure, whereas the healthy ones were relatively varied. Oral-malodor-associated bacteria were identified. The relative abundance of Leptotrichia and Prevotella was positively correlated with oral malodor severity, whereas Hemophilus and Gemella exhibited a negative relationship with oral malodor severity. Our study provides one of the first landscapes of oral microbiota changes associated with oral malodor development and reveals microbes potentially useful to the evaluation and control of oral malodor.

Abstract
The relationship between television viewing and obesity in children and adults was examined in a large number of cross-sectional epidemiological studies. Some randomised, controlled trials confirmed the evidence that television viewing is a cause of increased body fatness. It seems of utility in nutritional surveillance to esteem time spent by children and adults in television watching and to evaluate ads contents and food preferences suggested by them. This editorial shows a two-years long analysis of food commercials broadcasted by the main Italian TV networks; food ads targeted on children, housewives and sport fans were evaluated; the relationship between television viewing, commercials and food intake or global lifestyle was investigated in a Piedmont's population (from Northern Italy). School projects aimed to reduce television viewing represent a promising strategy for preventing childhood obesity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Familial Combined Hyperlipidemia is an inherited disorder affecting cholesterol and triglycerides metabolism, well known myocardial infarction risk factors. The FCHL clinical presentation is usually silent until the third decade although children can be affected, and the more recent opinion is that precocious diagnosis is mandatory in preventing complications. Aim of this study is to examine the effectiveness of the diet therapy (Step-One-Diet) in a group of 13 children affected by Familial Combined Hyperlipidemia. METHODS The patients have been submitted to a normocaloric diet, 30% fat of the total caloric daily intake according with the Dietary Intervention Study in Children (Step-One-Diet). The patients then have been submitted to a two year-follow-up and lipoprotein levels (total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, triglycerides and apolipoprotein B), nutritional status (macro- and micro-nutrients) as well as anthropometric data (height, weight, BMI) have been monitored. RESULTS Results showed a 10% total cholesterol and 30% triglycerides decrease, Iron and Calcium intake show increased levels approaching to the normal ones after controlled diet, while cholesterol intake was correct on both regimen. The growth parameters show a decrease in weight only in two obese and two overweight patients. CONCLUSIONS The present study confirmed the effectiveness and safety of the Step-One-Diet in children patients, allowing triglycerides normalization in 60% of the patients, and a 10% cholesterol decrease, in agreement with the complex genetic inheritance of the disease.

Abstract
Keggin heteropolyanions [XM(12)O(40)](n-) have various isomeric structures, alpha and beta being the most common. Conventionally, the alpha structure appears to be the most stable, but calculations carried out at the DFT level for X = P(V), Si(IV), Al(III), As(V), Ge(IV), and Ga(III) and M = W(VI) and Mo(VI) show that this stability depends on several factors, particularly on the nature of the heteroatom (X) and the total charge of the cluster. In this paper, we apply the clathrate model to the Keggin molecule to carry out a fragment-interaction study to elucidate when and why the traditional relative stability of various isomers can be inverted. The fully oxidized anions that have inverted the traditional stability trend in this series are [AlW(12)O(40)](5-) and [GaW(12)O(40)](5-), both of which contain a third-group heteroatom and an overall charge of -5. beta-isomers are always more easily reduced than alpha-isomers. This experimental observation suggests that reduction favors the stability of beta-isomers and one of the most important results of this study is that the alpha/beta inversion is achieved in most cases after the second reduction. The alpha- and beta-isomers may have different properties because the energy of the LUMO, a symmetry-adapted d(xy)-metal orbital, is different.

Abstract
The origin of regioselectivity in rhodium diphosphine catalyzed hydroformilation was investigated by means of hybrid QM/MM calculations using the IMOMM method. The roles of the diphosphine bite angle and of the nonbonding interactions were analyzed in detail by considering rhodium systems containing xantphos-type ligands, for which a correlation between the natural bite angle and regioselectivity has been recently reported. From the pentacoordinated equatorial--equatorial HRh(CO)(alkene)(diphosphine) key intermediate, eight possible reaction paths were defined and characterized through their respective transition states (TS). We succeeded in reproducing the experimentally observed trends for the studied diphosphines. By performing additional calculations on model systems, in which the steric effects induced by the phenyl substituents of xantphos ligands were canceled, we were able to separate, identify, and evaluate the different contributions to regioselectivity. These additional calculations showed that regioselectivity is governed by the nonbonding interactions between the diphenylphosphino substituents and the substrate, whereas the effects directly associated to the bite angle, what we call orbital effects, seem to have a smaller influence.

Abstract
Calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) have been carried out to investigate the electronic and magnetic properties of the alpha-Keggin anions mentioned in the title. The atomic populations and the distribution of the electron density computed for the studied clusters support the hypothesis that an oxidized Keggin anion is an XO(4)(n-) clathrate inside a neutral M(12)O(36) cage. The energy gap between the band of occupied orbitals, formally delocalized over the oxo ligands, and the unoccupied d-metal orbitals, delocalized over the addenda, has been found to be independent of the central ion. However, substitution of a W or a Mo by V modifies the relative energy of the LUMO and then induces important changes in the redox properties of the cluster. In agreement with the most recent X-ray determination of [Co(III)W(12)O(40)](5-) and with the simplicity of the (183)W NMR and (17)O NMR spectra observed for this anion the calculations suggest that [Co(III)W(12)O(40)](5-) has a slightly distorted T(d ) geometry. For the parent cluster [CoW(12)O(40)](6-) the quadruplet corresponding to the anion encapsulating a Co(II) was found to be approximately 1 eV more stable than the species formed by a Co(III) and 1 e delocalized over the sphere of tungstens. The one-electron reduction of [Co(II)W(12)O(40)](6-) and [Fe(III)W(12)O(40)](5-) leads to the formation of the 1 e blue species [Co(II)W(12)O(40)](7-) and [Fe(III)W(12)O(40)](6-). The blue-iron cluster is considerably antiferromagnetic, and in full agreement with this behavior the low-spin state computed via a Broken Symmetry approach is 196 cm(-1) lower than the high-spin solution. In contrast, the cobalt blue anion has a low ferromagnetic coupling with an S-T energy gap of +20 cm(-1). This blue species is more stable than the alternative reduction product [Co(I)W(12)O(40)](7-) by more than 0.7 eV.

Abstract
A survey of the relevant literature, with particular attention to clinical and immunological studies propounding pathogenetic theories, is followed by the presentation of 32 cases of erythema nodosum observed in infants examined at the Turin Paediatrics Clinic and Regina Margherita Hospital. The clinical laboratory data showed that streptococcal infection was hardly less significant than T. B. as the cause of this condition.
