Abstract
Coiled-Coil Domain-Containing (CCDC) is a large class of structural proteins containing left-handed supercoiled structure. The clinical value and the functional implication of CCDC in colorectal cancer (CRC) remain unknown. Based on the genetic, transcriptional, and clinical data from The Cancer Genome Atlas, five of thirty-six CCDC proteins were differentially expressed in the CRC and associated with the survival of patients with CRC. A CCDC-score model was established to evaluate the prognosis of patients. The potential function of Coiled-Coil Domain-Containing 154 (CCDC154) was investigated using bioinformatical methods, which unveiled that high expression of CCDC154 indicates poor survival for patients with CRC and correlates with low infiltration of CD8+ T cells and high infiltration of neutrophils, indicating that CCDC154 enhances tumor growth and metastasis. CCDC154 interacts with Minichromosome Maintenance Complex Component 2 (MCM2) protein and promotes malignant phenotype via MCM2. We validated the expression level and survival prediction value of CCDC154 in clinical samples, and analyzed its co-expression of MCM2, Ki-67 and p53. This work discloses the role of CCDC in clinical setting and CCDC154 functions in CRC.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the safety and antitumor activity of envafolimab monotherapy in Chinese patients with advanced solid tumors. Methods: This open-label, multicenter phase I trial included dose escalation and dose expansion phases. In the dose escalation phase, patients received subcutaneous 0.1, 0.3, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0 or 10.0 mg/kg envafolimab once weekly (QW) following a modified "3+ 3" design. The dose expansion phase was performed in the 2.5 mg/kg and 5.0 mg/kg (QW) dose cohorts. Results: At November 25, 2019, a total of 287 patients received envafolimab treatment. During the dose escalation phase, no dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) was observed. In all dose cohorts, drug-related treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) for all grades occurred in 75.3% of patients, and grade 3 or 4 occurred in 20.6% of patients. The incidence of immune-related adverse reactions (irAE) was 24.0% for all grades, the most common irAEs (≥2%) included hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, immune-associated hepatitis and rash. The incidence of injection site reactions was low (3.8%), all of which were grades 1-2. Among the 216 efficacy evaluable patients, the objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) were 11.6% and 43.1%, respectively. Median duration of response was 49.1 weeks (95% CI: 24.0, 49.3). Pharmacokinetic (PK) exposure to envafolimab is proportional to dose and median time to maximum plasma concentration is 72-120 hours based on the PK results from the dose escalation phase of the study. Conclusion: Subcutaneous envafolimab has a favorable safety and promising preliminary anti-tumor activity in Chinese patients with advanced solid tumors.

Abstract
Background Trastuzumab (TRA) shows significant efficacy in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive gastric cancer (GC). While TRA can help treat HER2-positive breast cancer, TRA resistance is a key clinical challenge. Nestin reportedly regulates the cellular redox homeostasis in lung cancer. This study aimed at identifying the functions of Nestin on the TRA sensitivity of HER2-positive GC cells. Methods Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Western blotting (WB) were performed to explore the association between the mRNA and protein expression profiles, respectively, of Nestin and the Keap1-Nrf2 pathway. The influence of Nestin overexpression on the in vitro sensitivity of GC cells to TRA was explored by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, colony formation assay, reactive oxygen species (ROS) detection, and flow cytometry. Results TRA treatment caused Nestin downregulation in two HER2-positive GC cell lines (MKN45 and NCI-N87). Nestin overexpression reduced the sensitivity of GC cells to TRA. The expression and activity of Nrf2 and relevant downstream antioxidant genes were increased by Nestin overexpression. Nestin overexpression also significantly suppressed TRA-induced apoptosis and ROS generation. In vivo tumor growth experiment with female BALB/c nude mice indicated that Nestin upregulation restored the tumor growth rate which was inhibited by TRA treatment. Conclusions Collectively, the inhibitory effect of Nestin on the TRA sensitivity of cells to TRA was confirmed in this study. These results imply that the antioxidant Nestin-Nrf2 axis may play a role in the mechanism underlying the resistance of GC cells to TRA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and programmed cell death 1 inhibitors have shown potential in treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in retrospective studies.
AIM To evaluate the efficacy of combining SBRT with sintilimab for patients with recurrent or oligometastatic HCC.
METHODS This trial involved patients with recurrent or oligometastatic HCC intravenously treated with SBRT plus sintilimab every 3 wk for 12 mo or until disease progression. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS).
RESULTS Twenty-five patients were enrolled from August 14, 2019, to August 23, 2021. The median treatment duration was 10.2 (range, 0.7-14.6) months. SBRT was delivered at a median dose of 54 (range, 48-60) Gy in 6 (range, 6-10) fractions. The median follow-up time was 21.9 (range, 10.3-39.7) mo, and 32 targeted lesions among 25 patients were evaluated for treatment response according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. The median PFS was 19.7 mo [95% confidence interval (CI): 16.9-NA], with PFS rates of 68% (95%CI: 52-89) and 45.3% (95%CI: 28-73.4) at 12 and 24 mo, respectively. The median overall survival (OS) was not reached, with OS rates of 91.5% (95%CI: 80.8-100.0) and 83.2% (95%CI: 66.5-100.0) at 12 and 24 mo, respectively. The 1- and 2-year local control rate were 100% and 90.9% (95%CI: 75.4%-100.0%), respectively. The confirmed objective response rate and disease control rate was 96%, and 96%, respectively. Most adverse events were graded as 1 or 2, and grade 3 adverse events were observed in three patients.
CONCLUSION SBRT plus sintilimab is an effective, well-tolerated treatment regimen for patients with recurrent or oligometastatic HCC.

Abstract
Background Metabolic reprogramming is a feature of cancer. However, colon cancer subtypes based on the glycolysis‒cholesterol synthesis axis have not been identified, and little is known about connections between metabolic features and the tumor microenvironment. Methods Data for 430 colon cancer cases were extracted from The Cancer Genome Atlas, including transcriptome data, clinical information, and survival outcomes. Glycolysis and cholesterol synthesis-related gene sets were obtained from the Molecular Signatures Database for a gene set variation analysis. The relationship between the genomic landscape and immune landscape were investigated among four metabolic subtypes. Hub genes were determined. The clinical significance of candidate hub gene was evaluated in 264 clinical samples and potential functions were validated in vitro and in vivo. Results Colon cancer cases were clustered into four metabolic subtypes: quiescent, glycolytic, cholesterogenic, and mixed. The metabolic subtypes differed with respect to the immune score, stromal score, and estimate score using the ESTIMATE algorithm, cancer-immunity cycle, immunomodulator signatures, and signatures of immunotherapy responses. Patients in the cholesterogenic group had better survival outcomes than those for other subtypes, especially glycolytic. The glycolytic subtype was related to unfavorable clinical characteristics, including high mutation rates in TTN, APC, and TP53, high mutation burden, vascular invasion, right colon cancer, and low-frequency microsatellite instability. GGH, CACNG4, MME, SLC30A2, CKMT2, SYN3, and SLC22A31 were identified as differentially expressed both in glycolytic-cholesterogenic subgroups as well as between colon cancers and healthy samples, and were involved in glycolysis‒cholesterol synthesis. GGH was upregulated in colon cancer; its high expression was correlated with CD4+ T cell infiltration and longer overall survival and it was identified as a favorable independent prognostic factor. The overexpression of GGH in colon cancer-derived cell lines (SW48 and SW480) inhibited PKM, GLUT1, and LDHA expression and decreased the extracellular lactate content and intracellular ATP level. The opposite effects were obtained by GGH silencing. The phenotype associated with GGH was also validated in a xenograft nude mouse model. Conclusions Our results provide insight into the connection between metabolism and the tumor microenvironment in colon cancer and provides preliminary evidence for the role of GGH, providing a basis for subsequent studies.

Abstract
PURPOSE Sparse researches evaluated the quantitative cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) parameters for immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI)-associated myocarditis. We aimed to apply quantitative CMR mappings and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) extent for detecting ICI-associated myocarditis. METHOD The retrospective study included patients with ICI-associated myocarditis and CMR examination from August 2018 to August 2021 in our hospital. ICI-associated myocarditis was clinically diagnosed based on the clinical criteria by European Society of Cardiology guidelines. The multiparametric CMR images including T2 mapping and black blood T2-weighted images were used to evaluate myocardial edema. The myocardial edema ratio (ER) ≥ 2.0 was applied for determining myocardial edema on T2-weighted images. RESULTS 56 patients with ICI-associated myocarditis were included. The global T2 value and native T1 value of patients with ICI-associated myocarditis were significantly higher than the reference ranges in our hospital (p < 0.05). The rate of elevated global T2 value (92%) was significantly higher than those of abnormal native T1 value (73%), ER (52%) and LGE presence (68%) in patients with ICI-associated myocarditis (p < 0.05). The LGE extent and left ventricular ejection fraction of patients with ICI-associated myocarditis were 10.38 ± 9.64% and 56.42 ± 8.54%, respectively. LGE extent inversely correlated with left ventricular ejection fraction (r = -0.38, p = 0.004) but positively correlated with native T1 value (r = 0.28, p < 0.04) and extracellular volume (r = 0.50, p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS T2 mapping could detect higher rate of patients with ICI-associated myocarditis than native T1 mapping, ER and LGE presence. LGE extent inversely correlated with left ventricular ejection fraction but positively correlated with native T1 value and extracellular volume in patients with ICI-associated myocarditis.

Abstract
Objective: To in vestigate the death-related risk factors of surgical treatment of myocardial infarction (MI) combined with ventricular septal rupture (VSR). Methods: The clinical data of patients (68 cases) with ventricular septal rupture after myocardial infarction (PI-VSR) from January 2008 to December 2020 in Beijing Anzhen Hospital were retrospectively selected and analyzed. We followed up the surviving patients and divided them into the survival group and the death group according to the perioperative and follow-up results. The univariate analysis was performed on various indicators, and the Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors related to postoperative death. Results: A total of 68 patients (42 were male and 26 were female, with age 44-82 (64.3±8.2) years after surgical treatment of myocardial infarction combined with ventricular septal rupture were enrolled, 9 patients died during the perioperative period, 59 surviving patients were followed up for 0.1-10.5 years(mean, 4 years), and 7 deaths during follow-up. Based on this, 52 patients were selected as the survival group while 16 patients as the death group. The results of univariate analysis showed that age, VSR to operation time less than 7 days, killip grade ≥ grade 3, cardiogenic shock, preoperative use of IABP, emergent surgery were related to postoperative death. The factors with P<0.2 factors in univariate analysis were selected into the multivariate Cox regression analysis. Age ([OR=1.110(1.012-1.217), P=0.026], platelet count [OR=0.990(0.981-0.999), P=0.031], D dimer (OR=1.002[1.001-1.003], P=0.003), cardiogenic shock (OR=6.084[1.729-21.405], P=0.005) were independent risk factors for postoperative death. All patients were followed up, the survival rate of 2-year, 4-year, 6-year, 8-year, and 10-year was 77.5%, 77.5%, 71.0%, 71.0%, and 71.0%, respectively. Conclusions: Age, platelet count, D-dimer, and cardiogenic shock are risk factors for death after surgical treatment of myocardial infarction combined with ventricular septal rupture. Surgery is an effective method for the treatment of myocardial infarction combined with ventricular septal rupture. Long-term prognosis of the surviving patients during perioperative are relatively better.

Abstract
Whether tumor mutational burden (TMB), which refers to the total number of somatic or acquired mutations per million bases in a particular region of the tumor genome, can serve as a predictive biomarker of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy for colon cancer remains unclear. Hereby, we retrospectively investigated the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) based on the level of TMB and tried to established a risk score model as a novel biomarker. The DNA mutation data were retrieved from the Masked Somatic Mutation in Genomic Data Commons data portal of the Cancer Genome Atlas, where the RNA sequencing data, clinical information, and survival outcomes of patients were downloaded. Patients with incomplete clinical information were excluded. The immune score and stromal score were calculated to investigate immune infiltration. The patients were grouped into TMB-high group and the TMB-low group based on the median value of TMB. An immune relevant gene set was obtained from the Immunology Database and Analysis Portal to identify immune-related DEGs. The Cox proportional hazard model and nomogram were applied to establish the risk model. In results: the TMB value was associated with age (p≤0.001), clinical stage (p≤0.001), N stage (p≤0.001), M stage (p=0.003), and immune score (p≤0.001). Twenty-nine immune-related DEGs were identified as enriched in immune response-related function or pathway and tumorigenesis signaling. Nine of 29 were determined to establish a riskScore model. The riskScore suggested a positive relationship with the TMB value (p=0.033), immune score (p≤0.001), and tumor immune dysfunction and exclusion (TIDE) (p=0.002) and presented an independent prognostic factor (p≤0.001, HR=1.04), which predicted the overall survival with good specificity. We concluded that the combination of TMB with transcriptome expression has a predictive and prognostic value for patients treated with ICIs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical role of deficient DNA mismatch repair (dMMR)/microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) in gastric cancer (GC) is still controversial. We aimed to analyze the relationship between dMMR/MSI-H and clinicopathological features along with survival. METHODS Patients who were diagnosed with GC at the three big cancer centers in China from 2015 to 2020 were evaluated retrospectively. MMR/MSI status was assessed using immunohistochemistry/PCR. Clinical and pathological data were collected from the medical record system. RESULTS A total of 196 patients with dMMR/MSI-H status were enrolled for analysis. The prevalence of MSI-H/dMMR in GC was 6.6%. Another 694 proficient MMR (pMMR) GC patients were enrolled for comparison. Compared with pMMR patients, dMMR/MSI-H patients were associated with older age, female predominance, distal location in the stomach, earlier TNM stage, intestinal subtype, better differentiation, and more negative HER2 status. The median overall survival (OS) of the dMMR/MSI-H group was better than that of the pMMR/microsatellite stability (MSS) group (not reached vs. 53.9 months, p = 0.014). Adjuvant chemotherapy had no impact in both disease-free survival (DFS) and OS of dMMR/MSI-H patients (p = 0.135 and 0.818, respectively). dMMR/MSI-H patients had poorer response and progression-free survival (PFS) of first-line chemotherapy, though they were statistically significant (p = 0.361 and 0.124, respectively). CONCLUSIONS dMMR/MSI-H GC patients have specific clinicopathological characteristics and better prognosis than pMMR patients.

Abstract
This study aimed at the efficacy of sequential treatment of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell secretion for busulfan-treated azoospermia in mice. The conditioned media (CM) was obtained from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) or 293 cells. Chemically induced azoospermia mice received 200 μl MSC-CM or 293-CM twice a week intravenously for three consecutive weeks. The histological assessment of spermatogenic recovery quantifying the expression of meiosis-associated genes, and Sertoli cell barrier functional factors were assessed. The characteristics of TM4 cells (Sertoli cell line) after pre-incubation of MSC-CM in vitro were also obtained. The MSC-CM group had the most spermatogenic colonies among the three groups (p < .05), but no spermatids were seen. Expressions of the meiosis-associated genes Dazl, Vasa, Miwi, Stra8, CyclinA1, Pgk2 and Scp3 in MSC-CM testis were remarkably higher compared with 293-CM and busulfan groups respectively (p < .05). The levels of Sertoli cell barrier functional factors, for example ICAM-1 and N-cadherin, were significantly increased during MSC-CM treatment (p < .05). Moreover, pre-incubation of MSC-CM particularly accelerated the CD54 (ICAM-1) and CD44 expressions of TM4 cells and promoted cell inherent adhesion. MSC-CM treatment can significantly improve the short-term restoration of spermatogonial structures of chemically induced azoospermia related to facilitating Sertoli cell adhesion integrity.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the feasibility of dynamic contrast enhanced ultrasound (DCE-US) in predicting treatment response of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) lesions. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this prospective study, 10 patients with pathologically confirmed LAPC lesions (7 men, 3 women; average age, 61.13±5.80 years) were prospectively enrolled. All patients received HIFU treatment with peak intensity at 12000 W/cm2. Contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) was performed with an ACUSON Oxana 2 ultrasound equipment and a 6 C-1 transducer (1-6 Hz). A dose of 2.4 ml SonoVue was injected for each examination. Time intensity curves (TICs) were generated and quantitative analyses were performed by SonoLiver software. B mode ultrasound (BMUS) features, CEUS enhancement patterns, TICs, CEUS quantitative parameters and serum carcinoma antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) levels were compared before and 4 weeks after HIFU treatment. Statistical analyses were performed with SPSS Version 20.0 and GraphPad Prism 5. RESULTS While comparing before and after HIFU, no significant difference was obtained on mean size of lesion, BMUS or CEUS features. After HIFU treatment, TICs showed decreased and delayed enhancement. Among all CEUS quantitative parameters, significant decrease could be found in maximum intensity (MI) (60.66±23.95% vs 41.31±26.74%) and mean transit time (mTT) (76.66±47.61 s vs 38.42±28.35 s). CA19-9 level decreased significantly after HIFU (2747.92±4237.41 U/ml vs 715.08±1773.90 U/ml) (P = 0.05). CONCLUSION DCE-US combining with quantitative analysis might be a useful imaging method for early treatment response evaluation of HIFU in LAPC lesions.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the clinicopathological characteristics and the prognosis of gastric adenocarcinoma patients with and without neuroendocrine differentiation (NED) after radical gastrectomy plus D2 lymph node dissection. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) patients who underwent radical resection of gastric cancer plus D2 lymph node dissection and were confirmed as gastric adenocarcinoma by postoperative pathology and received immunohistochemical examination of neuroendocrine markers Syn and/or CgA; (2) patients aged 20 to 75 years with normal organ function; (3) patients who did not receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy or radiotherapy before operation; (4) patients with postoperative pathological stage I to III according to the 8th edition of tumor staging system of American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC); and (5) patients who completed adjuvant chemotherapy according to the postoperative pathological stage. Those who had other malignant tumors in the past 5 years and who could not be followed up according to the required rules were excluded. According to the above criteria, the clinicopathological characteristics of gastric cancer patients who underwent radical resection plus D2 lymph node dissection in Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University from January 2010 to June 2017 were collected and compared. All patients were followed up till June 2020. The disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) between the patients with and without NED were compared, and the effect of NED on the prognosis was corrected by Cox proportional hazards model. The propensity score matching method was used for sensitivity analysis. Results: A total of 539 patients were enrolled in this study, including 35 with NED and 504 without NED. Compared with the patients without NED, the patients with NED were older [(65.0±7.5) years vs. (54.5±11.3) years, t=-7.681, P<0.001], had higher proportion of undergoing proximal gastrectomy [22.9% (8/35) vs. 7.6% (36/504), χ(2)=10.335, P=0.006], higher proportion of intestinal-type based on Lauren classification [77.1% (27/35) vs. 42.5% (214/504), χ(2)=14.553, P<0.001], and higher proportion of pathologic stage III [65.7% (23/35) vs. 27.6% (139/504), χ(2)=25.653, P<0.001]. The 3-year DFS of patients with NED and those without NED was 48.9% (95% CI: 33.8%-70.8%) and 37.4% (95% CI: 32.9%-42.5%) respectively, and no significant difference was found (P=0.44). The 3-year OS was 56.1% (95% CI: 39.9%-79.1%) and 64.3% (95% CI: 59.3%-69.7%) respectively, and no significant difference was found as well (P=0.32). Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that NED was not an independent risk factor for DFS and OS (all P>0.05). Sensitivity analysis showed that there was no significant difference in DFS and OS between the two groups after propensity score matching. Conclusion: Compared with patients without NED, patients with NED were older at onset, had a higher proportion of proximal gastrectomy, intestinal-type, and later diagnostic stage, but the survival prognosis had no significant difference with that of patients without NED.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is the second most common cancer in China. The ToGA study showed that trastuzumab in combination with fluoropyrimidine plus cisplatin prolonged overall survival (OS) in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive advanced GC (AGC). However, some patients may not be able to receive this regimen. We conducted a clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab in combination with docetaxel+capecitabine (DX) in patients with HER2-positive AGC. This phase II, multi-center, open-label, single arm study enrolled patients with HER2-positive AGC who had not received prior treatment for metastatic disease. Patients were treated with a regimen of trastuzumab (8 mg/kg loading dose followed by 6 mg/kg, day 1), capecitabine (1000 mg/m2 twice daily, days 1-14) and docetaxel (60 mg/m2, day 1 for 6 cycles) every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) and the secondary endpoints were objective response rate (ORR), OS and safety profiles. Sixty-seven patients with AGC were enrolled from 14 centers. 64 were included in the full analysis set (FAS). The median PFS was 8.1 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 5.6-12.8) and the median OS was 20.9 months (95% CI: 15.1-33.0). Response was evaluated in 59 patients. The ORR was 67.8%. The most common adverse events of Grade ≥3 were neutropenia, leukopenia, hand-foot syndrome, febrile neutropenia and anemia. We concluded that combination treatment with trastuzumab and DX was well-tolerated and highly effective in patients with HER2-positive AGC, and may offer an alternative to current treatments.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the potential mechanism of the effect of metabolic syndrome (MetS) on prostate volume (PV) and the risk of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)/lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and the relationships of MetS and the major pathogenic factors of MetS with the clinical progression of BPH/LUTS in older Chinese men. SUBJECTS AND METHODS We analyzed clinical data obtained from 506 ostensibly healthy men who underwent routine health check-ups and recruited 415 subjects from a group of previously studied men after 4 years. We evaluated the associations of major pathological factors of MetS, including insulin resistance, subclinical inflammatory state, and sex hormone changes, with PV, the risk of BPH and the clinical progression of BPH/LUTS by using multiple linear regression and logistic regression. RESULTS After adjustment for age, insulin, HOMA (homeostatic model assessment) index, leptin, resistin, adiponectin, C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), sex hormone-binding globulin, and testosterone levels were significantly associated with PV (all P < .05), and in the age-adjusted logistic regression model, positive associations of resistin and TNF-α with BPH/LUTS were found (OR, 1.662, P = .007 and OR, 1.044, P < .001, respectively). Predictors of BPH/LUTS clinical progression were significantly correlated with MetS and TNF-α. The group with higher TNF-α levels had a higher rate of newly diagnosed BPH (9.5% vs 19.1%, P = .006) and a greater increase in PV levels (0.61 ± 0.08 vs 1.09 ± 0.35 cm3 , P <.001) after 4 years. CONCLUSIONS MetS and its pathological factors were associated with an increased PV and an increased risk of BPH/LUTS that is more prone to clinical progression. TNF-α may serve as an early biological indicator to identify which patients with BPH/LUTS are at higher risk of unfavorable outcomes.

Abstract
Background Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels are correlated. To investigate the underlying effect of MetS on PSA levels, the relationship between the major pathogenic factors of MetS and serum PSA levels was studied. Methods A total of 506 ostensibly healthy men who underwent routine health check-ups were recruited to this study. We evaluated the effect of the major pathogenic factors of MetS, which included insulin resistance, a subclinical inflammatory state and sexual hormone changes, on serum PSA levels by using linear regression analysis and multivariate analysis after adjusting for age, BMI and prostate volume. Results When simultaneously adjusting for age, BMI, prostate volume and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, serum insulin levels and SHBG levels were inversely correlated with serum PSA levels (P = 0.049 and P = 0.004, respectively), and testosterone levels were positively correlated with serum PSA levels (P = 0.039). In multivariate regression models, serum insulin levels and serum SHBG levels were significantly associated with serum PSA levels (both P < 0.001). Conclusions Among the major pathogenic factors of metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance and sexual hormone changes may be the most significant contributors to the decline in serum PSA levels.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is a common disease globally with high mortality rate. It is therefore necessary to develop novel therapies targeting specific events in the pathogenesis of GC. Some hnRNP family members are involved in multiple cancer biological behaviors. However, the potential function and mechanism of hnRNPR, a new molecule of hnRNP family in GC remains unknown. We found that the expression of hnRNPR was significantly overexpressed in multiple cancers compared to the normal tissues. Functionally, hnRNPR promoted cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Knockdown of hnRNPR in two type mice models, with two types of tumors models decreased the tumor aggressiveness and metastasis. Mechanistically, hnRNPR targeted oncogenic pathways by stabilizing the expression of CCNB1 and CENPF mRNA level. Knockdown of CCNB1 and CENPF abolished the hnRNPR-induced cell growth and invasion, respectively. Furthermore, the protein level of hnRNPR in the tumor was positively correlated with the expression of CCNB1 and CENPF in clinical samples. Together, these results indicate that overexpression of hnRNPR promoted the aggressiveness of GC by increasing the mRNA expression of CCNB1 and CENPF. HnRNPR-CCNB1/CENPF axis may be a potential therapeutic target for GC treatment.

Abstract
Background For patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) after D2 gastrectomy, the survival benefits of receiving adjuvant chemoradiotherapy versus adjuvant chemotherapy are unclear. This study aimed to compare the 5- and 7-year overall survival (OS) in the two groups and to identify which patients can benefit more from adjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Methods Retrospective data were collected from January 2009 to December 2014. The 5- and 7-year OS and disease-free survival (DFS) were compared between the two groups using the Chi-square test. The association of OS with prognostic factors was identified using the Cox’s proportional hazard model, which was then adjusted for survival coparison using propensity score-matching (PSM) analysis. The association of OS with each clinical/demographic factor was compared between the two groups using the Kaplan–Meier analysis. Results A total of 415 eligible patients were identified (135 adjuvant chemoradiotherapy, 280 adjuvant chemotherapy). Significant 5- and 7-year OS and DFS benefits were found in the adjuvant chemoradiotherapy group versus chemotherapy group. Multivariate analysis showed that age, TNM stage, lymph node (LN) ratio, tumor deposits, and total/subtotal gastrectomy were independent prognostic factors. When the PSM analysis was adjusting by these factors, 135 patients were matched with an improved survival benefit from adjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Patients in the adjuvant chemoradiotherapy group had a lower locoregional relapse. Subset analysis also identified significant OS benefits of adjuvant chemoradiotherapy in patients with LN ratio <50%, pIIIA, and pIIIB stage disease, while OS benefits were not observed in patients with tumor deposits, pN3b classification, or pIIIC stage disease. Conclusion Adjuvant chemoradiotherapy was shown to be superior in improving the OS in a certain population of patients compared with adjuvant chemotherapy. This finding may help to better guide the individualized treatments of patients with stage III LAGC after D2 gastrectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the phenotypic and molecular diversity of hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC), it is still a challenge to determine patients' prognosis. We aim to identify new prognostic markers for resected HCC patients. METHODS 274 patients were retrospectively identified and samples collected from Zhongshan hospital, Fudan University. We analyzed the gene expression patterns of tumors and compared expression patterns with patient survival times. We identified a "9-gene signature" associated with survival by using the coefficient and regression formula of multivariate Cox model. This molecular signature was then validated in three patients cohorts from internal cohort (n = 69), TCGA (n = 369) and GEO dataset (n = 80). RESULTS We identified 9-gene signature consisting of ZC2HC1A, MARCKSL1, PTGS1, CDKN2B, CLEC10A, PRDX3, PRKCH, MPEG1 and LMO2. The 9-gene signature was used, combined with clinical parameters, to fit a multivariable Cox model to the training cohort (concordance index, ci = 0.85), which was successfully validated (ci = 0.86 for internal cohort; ci = 0.78 for in silico cohort). The signature showed improved performance compared with clinical parameters alone (ci = 0.70). Furthermore, the signature predicted patient prognosis than previous gene signatures more accurately. It was also used to stratify early-stage, HBV or HCV-infected patients into low and high-risk groups, leading to significant differences in survival in training and validation (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The 9-gene signature, in which four were upregulated (ZC2HC1A, MARCKSL1, PTGS1, CDKN2B) and five (CLEC10A, PRDX3, PRKCH, MPEG1, LMO2) were downregulated in HCC with poor prognosis, stratified HCC patients into low and high risk group significantly in different clinical settings, including receiving adjuvant transarterial chemoembolization and especially in early stage disease. This new signature should be validated in prospective studies to stratify patients in clinical decisions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To compare the efficacy of oxaliplatin-based and oxaliplatin-free adjuvant chemotherapies in patients with different Lauren type gastric cancers after D2 gastrectomy. METHODS From our established gastric cancer database, patients with pathological stage II and III gastric cancer who received adjuvant chemotherapy after D2 gastrectomy at Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University were analyzed. Patients who received different adjuvant chemotherapy regimens were divided into two subgroups: oxaliplatin-based and oxaliplatin-free subgroup. Clinical outcomes were analyzed according to pathological stage and different Lauren types. RESULTS From Jan 2010 to June 2017, a total of 580 patients met all the eligibility criteria and were enrolled. The median DFS for all the patients was 24.37 months and the median OS was 56.70 months. In patients with intestinal type gastric cancer, the median DFS of the oxaliplatin-based subgroup was significantly longer than that of oxaliplatin-free subgroup (48.73 vs. 18.33 months, P < 0.001). The median OS was not reached in the oxaliplatin-based subgroup and 54.33 months in the oxaliplatin-free subgroup (P = 0.006). In patients with diffuse type gastric cancer, neither DFS nor OS differed significantly between two subgroups. In multivariate analysis, oxaliplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy was independent positive predictor of DFS (HR 0.40; 95% CI 0.28-0.59; P < 0.001) and OS (HR 0.35; 95% CI 0.20-0.62; P < 0.001) in patients with intestinal type gastric cancer. CONCLUSIONS The results of our study suggested that oxaliplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy was more effective in patients with intestinal type gastric cancer after D2 gastrectomy but showed no more survival benefit in patients with diffuse type.

Abstract
The present study was designed to investigate the therapeutic effect of bone marrow MSC-derived factors on gonadotropic toxicity induced by busulfan in vivo. The conditioned media (CM) was obtained from MSCs in serum-free incubation for 48 hr and concentrated ~25-fold by ultrafiltration. The CM of HEK 293 cells was treated as control (293-CM). MSC-CM was injected into busulfan mice via caudal veins after 1 day of busulfan treatment for 2 weeks (200 μl per dose/twice weekly). Compared to the 293-CM group, testicular injury was delayed in MSC-CM group, including reduced vacuolations of cells in the basal compartment of the seminiferous epithelium and detachment of cells from basement membrane. Apoptotic spermatogenic cells were significantly decreased in MSC-CM group (p < 0.05). Interesting N-cadherin,ICAM-1 and P-cadherin expressions significantly increased in MSC-CM group, while occludin, ZO-1 and connexin 43 expressions showed no difference among MSC-CM, 293-CM and busulfan groups. Present results suggest MSC-secreted factors protect spermatogenesis impairment after busulfan treatment by reducing the apoptosis of spermatogenic cells and enhancing intercellular adhesion molecule expressions.

Abstract
China is one of the countries with the highest incidence of gastric cancer. There are differences in epidemiological characteristics, clinicopathological features, tumor biological characteristics, treatment patterns, and drug selection between gastric cancer patients from the Eastern and Western countries. Non-Chinese guidelines cannot specifically reflect the diagnosis and treatment characteristics for the Chinese gastric cancer patients. The Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO) arranged for a panel of senior experts specializing in all sub-specialties of gastric cancer to compile, discuss, and revise the guidelines on the diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer based on the findings of evidence-based medicine in China and abroad. By referring to the opinions of industry experts, taking into account of regional differences, giving full consideration to the accessibility of diagnosis and treatment resources, these experts have conducted experts’ consensus judgement on relevant evidence and made various grades of recommendations for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer to reflect the value of cancer treatment and meeting health economic indexes. This guideline uses tables and is complemented by explanatory and descriptive notes covering the diagnosis, comprehensive treatment, and follow-up visits for gastric cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the biomechanical characteristics of four-implants mandibular overdentures supported by Locator attachment or bar-clip attachment under different mechanical loads using three-dimensional finite element analysis method. Methods: Two different models of four-implants supported mandibular overdentures using Locator attachment and bar-clip attachment (hereinafter called Locator model and bar-clip model) were established. Each model was subjected to five different mechanical loading conditions: 100 N vertical loading in central incisor (vertical load of incisor), 100 N vertical loading or oblique loading in canine (vertical or oblique loads of canines), 100 N vertical or oblique loading in mandibular first molar (vertical or oblique loads of mandibular first molar). The stress distributions in implants, peri-implant bone and mucosa were recorded under the above five conditions to evaluate the effects of different attachments on the biomechanical properties of implant-supported mandibular overdentures. Results: Regardless of loading conditions and types of attachments, the stress concentration in implants were located at the neck of implants, and the stress concentration in peri-implant bone was located in the cortical bone. The stress values in mucosa were always much smaller than those in implants and cortical bone. Regardless of loading positions (on canine or on mandibular first molar), the maximum stress at the bone interface around the implant under lateral loading was much higher than that under vertical loading. Under various loading conditions, the stress in implants and cortical bone of the Locator model (the highest von Mise stress value was respectively 79.5 and 22.3 MPa) were lower than that of bar-clip model (the highest von Mise stress value was 110.3 and 28.7 MPa respectively) while the maximum compressive stress in mucosa (0.198 MPa) in Locator model was slightly higher than that in the bar-clip model (0.137 MPa). Conclusions: In clinical practice, the lateral force applied to the implant-retained overdenture should be minimized to avoid complications caused by pathological loads. Under the same loading condition, the stress distributions in overdenture using Locator attachment are more dispersed, which is more conducive to long-term stability of implants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) (about 85-90% of primary liver cancer) is particularly prevalent in China because of the high prevalence of chronic hepatitis B infection. HCC is the fourth most common malignancy and the third leading cause of tumor-related deaths in China. It poses a significant threat to the life and health of Chinese people. SUMMARY This guideline presents official recommendations of the National Health and Family Planning Commission of the People's Republic of China on the surveillance, diagnosis, staging, and treatment of HCC occurring in China. The guideline was written by more than 50 experts in the field of HCC in China (including liver surgeons, medical oncologists, hepatologists, interventional radiologists, and diagnostic radiologists) on the basis of recent evidence and expert opinions, balance of benefits and harms, cost-benefit strategies, and other clinical considerations. KEY MESSAGES The guideline presents the Chinese staging system, and recommendations regarding patients with HCC in China to ensure optimum patient outcomes.

Abstract
The in situ TiC/Al-Cu nanocomposites were fabricated in the Al-Ti-C reaction systems with various carbon sources by the combined method of combustion synthesis, hot pressing, and hot extrusion. The carbon sources used in this paper were the pure C black, hybrid carbon source (50 wt.% C black + 50 wt.% CNTs) and pure CNTs. The average sizes of nano-TiC particles range from 67 nm to 239 nm. The TiC/Al-Cu nanocomposites fabricated by the hybrid carbon source showed more homogenously distributed nano-TiC particles, higher tensile strength and hardness, and better abrasive wear resistance than those of the nanocomposites fabricated by pure C black and pure CNTs. As the nano-TiC particles content increased, the tensile strength, hardness, and the abrasive wear resistance of the nanocomposites increased. The 30 vol.% TiC/Al-Cu nanocomposite fabricated by the hybrid carbon source showed the highest yield strength (531 MPa), tensile strength (656 MPa), hardness (331.2 HV), and the best abrasive wear resistance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare the efficacies of the XELOX and DOS regimens as preoperative chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. METHODS All cases of locally advanced gastric cancer treated with the XELOX or DOS regimen were reviewed retrospectively. Propensity score matching (PSM) was carried out to reduce selection bias based on age, gender, location, Lauren type, carcinoembryonic antigen level, clinical tumor stage, and clinical node stage. RESULTS From January 2010 to December 2016, 248 patients were matched; 159 of them received the XELOX regimen and 89 the DOS regimen. The response rates in the XELOX and DOS groups were 34.5 and 38.1%, respectively (P = 0.823). After four cycles of chemotherapy, 111 patients (69.8%) in the XELOX group and 65 patients (73.0%) in the DOS group underwent radical surgery (P = 0.485). The median progression-free survival (33.0 months vs. 18.7 months, P = 0.0356) and the median overall survival (43.8 months vs. 29.1 months, P = 0.0003) were longer for patients who received the DOS regimen than for those who received the XELOX regimen. The occurrence of grade 3 to 4 toxicity was similar in the two groups. CONCLUSIONS For locally advanced gastric cancer patients, the DOS regimen showed more benefit than the XELOX regimen as preoperative chemotherapy, without any added toxicity effects.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluated early clinical outcomes of saphenous vein grafts harvested with a No-touch technique in off-pump coronary artery bypass graft (OPCABG) surgery. Methods: A total of 124 patients with three-vessel disease undergoing OPCABG by No-touch technique between June and November 2017 in Beijing An Zhen Hospital were respectively reviewed. Results: The average age of patients was (60.7±10.3) years, and 80 cases (64.5%) were male, with the average body mass index (BMI)of (25.4±2.5) kg/m(2,) the mean preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of (58.0±7.0%). The operative time was (4.0±0.4) hours, and 16 cases (12.9%) were harvested for whole vein grafts. The number of vein grafts and venous anastomoses was 144 and 284, respectively. There were 16 cases of single bridge NTSVG-LAD, 4 cases of single bridge NTSVG-D, 99 cases of sequential bridge NTSVG-OM-PDA, 5 cases of sequential bridge NTSVG-OM-PLV, 4 cases of sequential bridge NTSVG-OM-RCA, 16 cases of sequential bridge NTSVG-D-OM-PDA. The mean flow volume of No-touch vein grafts was (51.9±2.4) ml/min. There was no death case in hospital. Postoperative re-exploration for hemorrhage of anastomosis happened in 1 case (0.8%), which was caused by pericardial tamponade due to insufficiency of hemostasis in internal mammary bed. There were 1 case of bad wound healing of lower extremity incision (0.8%). A total of 124 cases were followed up after operation, and the follow-up rate was 100%. There was one all-cause death (0.8%) 27 days after the operation. Conclusion: The short-term clinical observation of the application of No-touch great saphenous vein harvesting technique for OPCABG is safe and effective.

Abstract
Purpose We assessed the effectiveness of EOX (capecitabine, oxaliplatin and epirubicin) compared with XELOX (capecitabine and oxaliplatin) as preoperative chemotherapy for initially unresectable locally advanced gastric cancer.Methods This is a prospective observational study. Patients with unresectable locally advanced gastric cancer were performed EOX regimen or XELOX regimen at the discretion of the investigators. They were assessed for response every 2 cycles by CT (computed tomography) scan. A multidisciplinary team reassessed resectability after 4 cycles. The primary endpoint was the response rate. Secondary end points included the R0 resection rate, survival and adverse events.Results From November 2008 to May 2015, 242 patients were enrolled; 112 of them were assigned to EOX regimen and 130 to XELOX regimen. The response rates were 33.0% and 33.8% respectively in EOX group and XELOX group (P = 0.997). After 4 cycles of chemotherapy, 63 patients (56.3%) in EOX group and 81 patients (62.3%) in XELOX group received radical operation (P = 0.408). There was no significant difference in progress-free survival (PFS, 12.0m vs. 15.4m, P = 0.925) and overall survival (OS, 25.7m vs. 29.0m, P = 0.783) in two groups. In addition, more adverse effects occurred in EOX group, such as more leucopenia (22.3% vs. 10.0%, P = 0.014), neutropenia (23.2% vs. 11.5%, P = 0.025), fatigue (11.6% vs. 3.8%, P = 0.041) and vomiting (10.7% vs. 2.3%, P = 0.015).Conclusions For unresectable locally advanced gastric cancer patients, XELOX regimen showed similar effects in response rate, radical resection rate and survival benefits, but with less toxicity effects.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVES Tacrolimus is characterized by a narrow therapeutic index and a considerable inter- and intraindividual pharmacokinetic variability. The aim of our study was to develop a population pharmacokinetic model of tacrolimus in adult kidney transplant of Chinese patients, identify factors especially CYP3A5*3 genetic polymorphism that explain variability, and determine dosage regimens. METHODS Pharmacogenomic data obtained from 83 Chinese kidney transplant patients treated with tacrolimus were determined using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Trough blood concentration data were collected from all of the patients during the 12 months of post-transplantation days and were analysed using the nonlinear mixed-effects modelling program. After building the final model, 1000 bootstraps were performed to validate the final model. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION A one-compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination adequately described the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus. In this study, we observed that POD, HCT and CYP3A5*3 genotype were determinant factors in CL/F and POD related with V/F of tacrolimus significantly. The final model with the clearance covariates was presented as: Cl/F=THETA(1)*EXP(THETA(4)*(83/POD))*(39.1/HCT)**THETA(5)*EXP(THETA(6)*CYP3A5), and the final model with the volume covariates was presented as: Vd/F=THETA(2)*POD**THETA(3). The Ka was fixed to 4.5 h-1 . WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION The HCT, CYP3A5*3 genetic polymorphism and POD contributed to the interindividual variability of oral tacrolimus in Chinese adult renal transplant patients.

Abstract
Objective: To discuss the clinical safety and efficacy about off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) in octogenarians. Methods: From June 2005 to July 2014, 252 patients (male 208, female 44, with a mean age of 81.7 years old) underwent OPCABG in Beijing Anzhen Hospital who were aged 80 years or older were enrolled. Results: Eight (3.2%) patients were diagnosed as single vessel coronary artery disease (CAD), 29 cases (11.5%) were diagnosed as bifurcation vessel CAD, and 215 cases (85.3%) were multivessel CAD. One hundred and one cases (40.1%) were diagnosed as left main artery disease, among which 51 cases (20.2%) had old myocardial infarction. Two hundred and forty-eight patients belonged to Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) classⅠ-Ⅲ and 4 cases to CCS class Ⅳ. One hundred and forty-five cases belonged to New York Heart Association (NYHA) classⅠ-Ⅱ and 107 cases to NYHA class Ⅲ-Ⅳ. Mean graft number was 3. Two hundred and six patients (81.7%) received total vein graft operation. Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) was used in 43 patients (17.1%). In-hospital death occurred in 15 cases (6.0%). Major in-hospital complications included reoperation (16 cases), re-intubation (16 cases), dialysis (11 cases), sternum infection (2 cases), atrial fibrillation (63 cases). The follow-up time was from 1 to 11 years (with a mean time of 6 years). All-cause mortality was 18.1% (43 cases). The major out-of-hospital complications included recurrent myocardial infarction (3 cases), stroke (3 cases), re-admission (27 cases) and recurrent angina pectoris (20 cases). Conclusion: OPCABG is safe and effective for myocardial revascularization in patients aged 80 years and over.

Abstract
The impact of maintenance therapy on progression-free survival and overall survival as well as quality of life of Chinese patients with metastatic colorectal cancer has long been under discussion. Recently, some phase III clinical trials have revealed that maintenance therapy can significantly prolong the progression-free survival while maintain an acceptable safety profile. Based on this evidence and common treatment practice in China, we now generated one Expert Consensus on Maintenance Treatment for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer in China to further specify the necessity of maintenance therapy, suitable candidates for such treatment, and appropriate regimens.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Right-sided colon cancer (RSCC) and left-sided colorectal cancer (LSCRC) differ with respect to their biology and genomic patterns. This study aimed to examine whether the primary tumor location is associated with the response to cetuximab in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). METHODS Patients with mCRC treated with cetuximab and standard chemotherapy as first- or second-line treatments were compared with randomly chosen patients who were treated with chemotherapy alone between 2005 and 2013. The main outcome measures were the overall response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). The differences in the outcome were analyzed by using the chi-squared test, Student's t test, and Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS The treatment results of 206 patients with mCRC treated with cetuximab and standard chemotherapy as first- or second-line treatments were compared with those of 210 patients who were treated with chemotherapy alone. As a first-line treatment, cetuximab with chemotherapy was associated with a significantly higher ORR (49.4 % vs. 28.6 %, P = 0.005) as well as longer PFS (9.1 vs. 6.2 months, P = 0.002) and OS (28.9 vs. 20.1 months, P = 0.036) than chemotherapy alone in patients with LSCRC. However, cetuximab neither improved the ORR (36.4 % vs. 26.2 %, P = 0.349) nor prolonged PFS (5.6 vs. 5.7 months, P = 0.904) or OS (25.1 vs. 19.8 months, P = 0.553) in patients with RSCC. As a second-line treatment, cetuximab exhibited a tendency to improve the ORR (23.5 % vs. 10.2 %, P = 0.087) and prolong PFS (4.9 vs. 3.5 months, P = 0.064), and it significantly prolonged OS (17.1 vs. 12.4 months, P = 0.047) compared with chemotherapy alone in the patients with LSCRC. In contrast, as a second-line treatment, cetuximab neither improved the ORR (7.1 % vs. 11.4 %, P = 0.698) nor prolonged PFS (3.3 vs. 4.2 months, P = 0.761) or OS (13.4 vs. 13.0 months, P = 0.652) in patients with RSCC. CONCLUSIONS The addition of cetuximab to chemotherapy in both first- and second-line treatments of mCRC may only benefit patients with primary LSCRC.

Abstract
Alterations of the autophagy-lysosomal pathway (ALP) and autophagy have been involved in lung ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, dynamic imaging of ALP function under lung I/R injury particularly is not fully understood. Here we depicted the live-cell fluorescence imaging of autophagosome to monitor ALP activation and autophagy function. The pAsRed2-N1-LC3 vectors were transfected into CRL-2192 NR8383 (an alveolar macrophage cell line) and CCL149 (an alveolar epithelial cell line) successfully. 0-h, 2-h, 4-h, and 6-h hypoxia/0-h, 2-h, 4-h, and 6-h reoxygenation were then induced with an ALP inhibitor (3-MA) or activator (rapamycin) in the culture of transfected cells separately. ALP activation was conformed by up-regulating AMPK and beclin1 expression. Apoptosis was not obvious in 2-h hypoxia/2-h reoxygenation. pAsRed2-N1-LC3 CCL149 and pAsRed2-N1-LC3 NR8383 cells revealed gradually enhanced AsRed2 from 2-h to 6-h hypoxia/reoxygenation. AsRed2 varied sensitively to 3-MA and rapamycin interventions during 2-h hypoxia/reoxygenation. Our data provides a simple method of autophagosome imaging to monitor ALP activation and autophagy function in lung I/R injury.

Abstract
The characteristics of topological insulators are manifested in both their surface and bulk properties, but the latter remain to be explored. Here we report bulk signatures of pressure-induced band inversion and topological phase transitions in Pb(1-x)Sn(x)Se (x=0.00, 0.15, and 0.23). The results of infrared measurements as a function of pressure indicate the closing and the reopening of the band gap as well as a maximum in the free carrier spectral weight. The enhanced density of states near the band gap in the topological phase gives rise to a steep interband absorption edge. The change of density of states also yields a maximum in the pressure dependence of the Fermi level. Thus, our conclusive results provide a consistent picture of pressure-induced topological phase transitions and highlight the bulk origin of the novel properties in topological insulators.

Abstract
There are many recent observational studies on metabolic syndrome (MS) and the risk for ED, and it is still inconclusive whether MS increases the risk for ED. This meta-analysis aims to detect a relationship between MS and ED. We identified eligible studies by searching PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Library for articles published before August 2013. Adjusted relative risks (RR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using random-effects or fixed-effects models. A total of 10 studies involving 4092 participants were included in the meta-analysis. MS was associated with an increased incidence of ED (RR=1.60, 95% CI=1.27-2.02, P<0.001), with significant evidence of heterogeneity among these studies (P for heterogeneity <0.001, I(2)=92.9%). The subgroup and sensitivity analyses confirmed the stability of the results and no publication bias was detected. The present meta-analysis suggests that MS is significantly associated with the risk for ED. Large-scale and well-designed prospective studies are required to further investigate the association between MS and risk for ED.

Abstract
The monoclonal antibody trastuzumab has brought survival benefit to patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC) that have human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) over expression or amplification. This study was designed to compare the clinical outcomes of HER2-negative and HER2-positive AGC patients with or without trastuzumab treatment. There were three groups of patients enrolled for analysis. Group A was 51 HER2-positive AGC patients treated with trastuzumab and chemotherapy; group B was a matched control group of 47 HER2-positive patients who received chemotherapy only; group C was a matched group of 251 HER2-negative patients who received chemotherapy. All the patients were enrolled at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center or Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University between January 2010 and December 2012. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). The Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test were used for survival analysis. The median duration of follow-up was 13.5 months (range 5-18.6 months). The median OS of these three groups of patients was 14.8 months, 11.3 months and 14.4 months respectively (p < 0.001). The survival difference between group A and B was significant, p < 0.001. Similarly, there was significant difference between group B and C, p < 0.001. Moreover the survival between group A and C was comparable, p = 0.281. The median progression-free survival for these three groups was 7.4, 6.0 and 7.2 months. Multivariate analysis confirmed that trastuzumab treatment was an independent prognostic factor in group A and B patients (p = 0.017). HER2 positive was an independent adverse prognostic factor in group B and C patients (p = 0.013).

PURPOSE To assess the effects of cetuximab plus chemotherapy as first-line treatment for unresectable colorectal liver metastases (CLMs). PATIENTS AND METHODS After resection of their primary tumors, patients with KRAS wild-type synchronous nonresectable liver-limited metastases from colorectal cancer were randomly assigned to receive chemotherapy (FOLFIRI [fluorouracil, leucovorin, and irinotecan] or mFOLFOX6 [modified fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin]) plus cetuximab (arm A) or chemotherapy alone (arm B). The primary end point was the rate of patients converted to resection for liver metastases. Secondary end points included tumor response and survival. RESULTS The intent-to-treat population comprised 138 patients; 70 patients were randomly assigned to arm A and 68 to arm B. After a median of 25.0 months of follow-up, the 3-year overall survival (OS) rate and median survival time (MST) for all patients were 30% and 24.4 months, respectively. The R0 resection rates for liver metastases were 25.7% (18 of 70 patients) in arm A and 7.4% (five of 68 patients) in arm B, which were significantly different (P < .01). Patients in arm A had improved objective response rates (57.1% v 29.4%; P < .01), increased 3-year OS rate (41% v 18%; P = .013) and prolonged MST (30.9 v 21.0 months; P = .013) compared with those in arm B. In addition, in arm A, patients who had resection of liver metastases had a significantly improved MST (46.4 v 25.7 months; P < .01) compared with those who did not undergo surgery. CONCLUSION For patients with initially unresectable KRAS wild-type CLMs, cetuximab combined with chemotherapy improved the resectability of liver metastases and improved response rates and survival compared with chemotherapy alone.

Abstract
Aim To develop analytical models and analyse the stress distribution and flexibility of nickel–titanium (NiTi) instruments subject to bending forces. Methodology The analytical method was used to analyse the behaviours of NiTi instruments under bending forces. Two NiTi instruments (RaCe and Mani NRT) with different cross-sections and geometries were considered. Analytical results were derived using Euler–Bernoulli nonlinear differential equations that took into account the screw pitch variation of these NiTi instruments. In addition, the nonlinear deformation analysis based on the analytical model and the finite element nonlinear analysis was carried out. Numerical results are obtained by carrying out a finite element method. Results According to analytical results, the maximum curvature of the instrument occurs near the instrument tip. Results of the finite element analysis revealed that the position of maximum von Mises stress was near the instrument tip. Therefore, the proposed analytical model can be used to predict the position of maximum curvature in the instrument where fracture may occur. Finally, results of analytical and numerical models were compatible. Conclusion The proposed analytical model was validated by numerical results in analysing bending deformation of NiTi instruments. The analytical model is useful in the design and analysis of instruments. The proposed theoretical model is effective in studying the flexibility of NiTi instruments. Compared with the finite element method, the analytical model can deal conveniently and effectively with the subject of bending behaviour of rotary NiTi endodontic instruments.

Abstract
Excessive activation of the transforming growth factor beta signaling pathway and disorganized cellular skeleton caused by genetic mutations are known to be responsible for the inherited thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections (TAAD), a life-threatening vascular disease. To investigate the genotype-phenotype correlation, we screened genetic mutations of fibrillin-1 (FBN1), transforming growth factor-β receptor-1 (TGFBR1) and transforming growth factor-β receptor-2 (TGFBR2) for TAAD in 7 affected families and 22 sporadic patients. Of 19 potential mutations identified in FBN1, 11 appeared novel while the others were recurrent. Two mutations were detected in TGFBR2. Eight patients carried no mutation in either of these genes. Characterization of FBN1 c.5917+6T>C in transfected HEK293 cells demonstrated that it caused skipping of exon 47, leading to the loss of the 33th calcium binding epidermal growth factor-like domain associated with Marfan syndrome. Compared with exon 46, skipping of 47 did not cause patients ectopia lentis in all carriers. To correlate genotypes with phenotypes in different human ancestries, we reviewed the published mutational studies on FBN1 and found that the probability of cardiovascular defects were significantly increased in Chinese patients with premature termination codon or splicing mutations than those with missense mutations (91.7 % vs 54.2 %, P = 0.0307) or with noncysteine-involved point mutations than those with cysteine-involved mutations (88.9 % vs 33.3 %, P = 0.0131). Thus, we conclude that exon 47 skipping of FBN1 leads preferentially to cardiovascular defects and human ancestries influence genotype-phenotype correlation in TAAD.

Abstract
The role of chemotherapy has become more and more important in the whole process of gastric cancer. S-1 or XELOX regimen is regarded as the standard treatment option in adjuvant chemotherapy. First-line chemotherapy in advanced gastric cancer has been established to improve survival, and the benefit from second-line chemotherapy is being acknowledged. More studies are needed to assess the neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Abstract
The expression of osteopontin (OPN) has been correlated with tumor growth and metastasis. However, the mechanisms by which OPN promotes tumor metastasis remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the anti-tumor effects of OPN by silencing OPN expression in the gastric cancer cell line SGC7901, using lentiviral-OPN small interfering RNA (siRNA) technology. Plasmid vectors containing OPN siRNAs were generated, encoded with lentiviral vector and transfected into SGC7901 cells (SGC-OPN- cells). OPN mRNA and protein expression were examined using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blotting techniques. The tumorigenicity and metastatic potential of SGC7901 cells were studied in nude mice. Expression of OPN and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in lung metastatic tumor specimens were also examined using immunohistochemistry (IHC). Among the three siRNA sequences tested, siRNA2 most remarkably inhibited mRNA levels of OPN; lentiviral-siRNA2 was stably transfected into SGC7901 cells to generate SGC-OPN- cells. SGC-OPN- cells had significantly decreased OPN expression compared to control cells (relative intensities were 0.14 ± 0.06 vs. 0.95 ± 0.16 in controls, P<0.01). A substantial reduction in detectable tumors was found in mice implanted with SGC-OPN- cells compared to controls (4.62 ± 1.24 vs. 8.35 ± 2.27 cm3 in controls, P<0.01). In addition, mice implanted with SGC-OPN- cells survived longer (101.2 ± 22.5 vs. 89.2 ± 24.6 d, P<0.01) and were demonstrated to have less metastases compared to mice implanted with SGC7901 control cells. Interestingly, lentiviral-siRNA2 also suppressed the expression of OPN and VEGF in metastatic lung specimens. Lentiviral-mediated OPN siRNA significantly reduced OPN gene expression, suppressing the growth and metastasis of gastric cancers, which might be related to reduced expression of VEGF. Therefore, OPN could serve as a promising therapeutic target for gastric cancer.

Abstract
AIM: To study the value of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for advanced gastric cancer by performing a meta-analysis of the published studies.
METHODS: All published controlled trials of NAC for advanced gastric cancer vs no therapy before surgery were searched. Studies that included patients with metastases at enrollment were excluded. Databases included Cochrane Library of Clinical Comparative Trials, MEDLINE, Embase, and American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting abstracts from 1978 to 2010. The censor date was up to April 2010. Primary outcome was the odds ratio (OR) for improving overall survival rate of patients with advanced gastric cancer. Secondary outcome was the OR for down-staging tumor and increasing R0 resection in patients with advanced gastric cancer. Safety analyses were also performed. All calculations and statistical tests were performed using RevMan 5.0 software.
RESULTS: A total of 2271 patients with advanced gastric cancer enrolled in 14 trials were divided into NAC group (n = 1054) and control group (n = 1217). The patients were followed up for a median time of 54 mo. NAC significantly improved the survival rate [OR = 1.27, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.04-1.55], tumor stage (OR = 1.71, 95% CI: 1.26-2.33) and R0 resection rate (OR = 1.51, 95% CI: 1.19-1.91) of patients with advanced gastric cancer. No obvious safety concerns were raised in these trials.
CONCLUSION: NAC can improve tumor stage and survival rate of patients with advanced gastric cancer with a rather good safety.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) levels in paddy fields across Taiwan have increased due to emission from industry. To ensure the production of rice that meets food quality standards, predictive models or suitable soil tests are needed to evaluate the quality of soils to be used for rice cropping. Levels of Cd in soil and rice grains were measured in 19 paddy fields across the western plains in Taiwan. Cadmium levels in soil range from less than 0.1 mg kg(-1) to 30 mg kg(-1). Measured Cd levels in brown rice were predicted very well (R(2) > 0.8) based on Cd and Zinc in a 0.01 M CaCl(2) extract or a soil-plant transfer model using the reactive soil Cd content, pH, and cation exchange capacity. In contrast to current soil quality standards used in Taiwan, such models are effective in identifying soils where Cd in rice will exceed food quality standards.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the outcome of external beam radiotherapy for abdominal lymph node (LN) metastases in patients with recurrent gastric cancer. METHODS AND MATERIALS The clinical data of 79 patients with abdominal LN metastases developing after curative resection of gastric tumor were retrospectively analyzed. Of the 79 patients, 37 received radiation (40-60 Gy in fractions of 2.0 Gy daily, five times weekly; termed the radiation group), and 42 received chemotherapy or supportive care (the nonradiation group). The Kaplan-Meier method was used to evaluate survival, and a Cox regression model was used to identify predictors of prognosis. RESULTS After radiation, complete response and partial response were observed in 29.7% and 54.1% of patients, respectively. Clinical symptoms were relieved in 19 of 21 patients (90.5%) after completing radiation. Median survival time was 11.4 months in the radiation group and 4.8 months in the nonradiation group. Overall survival for patients with and without radiation was 43.2% and 19.0% at 1 year and 27.6% and 4.1% at 2 years, respectively (p = 0.002). Multivariate analysis showed that the relative risk of death in the radiation group from the time of diagnosis of LN metastases was 0.253 (p < 0.001). The most common adverse effect of radiation was gastrointestinal toxicity, but it was mild in most patients. CONCLUSIONS Abdominal LN metastases from gastric cancer are sensitive to radiation. Delivery of 50 Gy is effective as palliative treatment and may prolong overall survival.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate whether and how much gastric cancer patients after curative resection could benefit from chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Meta-analysis was conducted with all the qualified clinical randomized trials which compared adjuvant chemotherapy with surgery alone. The database includes MEDLINE, EMBase and CBM disc, and the censor data were up to November 2007. Primary outcomes were relative risk (RR) on death and disease-free survival (DFS); secondary outcomes include RR of adverse reactions of the two arms. Sub-group analysis and sensitivity analysis were also performed. All the calculations and statistical tests were done with the RevMan 4.2.8 software. RESULTS Finally, 23 trials which included 4919 patients (2441 in the adjuvant chemotherapy arm, 2478 in the observation arm) achieved all the criteria. Among them, 19 studies reported the survival rate at the end of follow-up, 60.6% alive among 2286 patients in the adjuvant chemotherapy arm, 53.4% alive among 2313 patients in the observation arm, with the RR on death of 0.85 (95%CI: 0.80-0.90). Eight studies reported the DFS, and the observation arm had a shorter DFS (RR: 0.88, 95%CI: 0.77-0.99). Grade 3/4 of myelosuppression and GI toxicity occurred more frequently in the treatment arm. Nine studies reported the recurrence rate and suggested that the treatment arm had a lower recurrence rate (RR: 0.78, 95%CI: 0.71 approximately 0.86). CONCLUSIONS Statistically, adjuvant chemotherapy could improve the survival rate and disease-free survival rate in gastric cancer after curative resection and reduce the relapse rate. However, the clinical benefits of adjuvant chemotherapy still need to be improved. Additionally, post-operative chemotherapy could be tolerated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare FOLFOX6 and FOLFIRI regimen in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer with cost-effective analysis. METHODS Cost-effective analysis was conducted based on the efficacy results of V308 clinical trial of FOLFOX6 and FOLFIRI regimen and the medical system price in Zhongshan hospital. RESULTS The minimal cost analysis showed FOLFIRI followed by FOLFOX6 had the cost of RMB 206365.78 Yuan for each patient during the whole treatment period, and RMB 170468.89 Yuan for the FOLFOX6 followed by FOLFIRI regimen. Incremental analysis showed FOLFIRI followed by FOLFOX6 regimen could prolong one month of overall survival with additional cost of RMB 39885.44 Yuan in each patient while compared with the regimen of FOLFOX6 followed by FOLFIRI. CONCLUSIONS Both FOLFOX and FOLFIRI regimens are able to prolong the survival time of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer, but cost of such treatments are still quite expensive for Chinese patients. FOLFOX6 regimen suggests better cost-effectiveness than FOLFIRI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection status in Shanghai and its risk factors. METHODS A questionnaire survey including 60 items related to Hp was conducted among 1925 persons, 976 males (50.7%) and 949 females (49.3%), aged 37 +/- 11 (15 approximately 72), selected by cluster sampling in 12 rural and urban areas in Shanghai. Peripheral blood was collected to detect Hp IgG antibody so as to evaluate the past infection status and (14)C urea breath test (UBT) was performed so as to evaluate the present infection status. Fecal Hp antigen test was done in the subjects under 18 years of age. RESULTS 1822 of the 1925 subjects (94.6%) underwent the 3 tests. were followed antibody detection and (14)C UBT and response with questionnaires. The Hp infection rate was 66.4% in general, and 68.4% in the females, somehow higher than in the males (64.3%, P = 0.067). The infection rate was different in different age groups, was the lowest in the age group of 15 approximately 19 (44.4%) and the highest 70% in age group of 20 approximately 30 (70%), then somewhat lower and gradually became higher. Socio-economic status was related to Hp infection. Hp infection was related with such factors as eating raw vegetables and fruits, and never washing raw vegetables and fruits before eating. The knowledge rate about Hp infection was only 33.2% among the respondents. Only 23.8% of the respondents knew well the transmission route of Hp. CONCLUSION Hp infection rate is rather high in Shanghai. Hp infection is related to socio-economic status, and family dietary and sanitary habits.
