Amplitude Analysis of the B^{0}→K^{*0}μ^{+}μ^{-} Decay

An amplitude analysis of the B^{0}→K^{*0}μ^{+}μ^{-} decay is presented using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.7  fb^{-1} of pp collision data collected with the LHCb experiment. For the first time, the coefficients associated to short-distance physics effects, sensitive to processes beyond the standard model, are extracted directly from the data through a q^{2}-unbinned amplitude analysis, where q^{2} is the μ^{+}μ^{-} invariant mass squared. Long-distance contributions, which originate from nonfactorizable QCD processes, are systematically investigated, and the most accurate assessment to date of their impact on the physical observables is obtained. The pattern of measured corrections to the short-distance couplings is found to be consistent with previous analyses of b- to s-quark transitions, with the largest discrepancy from the standard model predictions found to be at the level of 1.8 standard deviations. The global significance of the observed differences in the decay is 1.4 standard deviations.

Fraction of χ_{c} Decays in Prompt J/ψ Production Measured in pPb Collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=8.16 TeV

The fraction of χ_{c1} and χ_{c2} decays in the prompt J/ψ yield, F_{χ_{c}→J/ψ}=σ_{χ_{c}→J/ψ}/σ_{J/ψ}, is measured by the LHCb detector in pPb collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=8.16  TeV. The study covers the forward (1.5 Collapse

Enhanced Production of Λ_{b}^{0} Baryons in High-Multiplicity pp Collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV

The production rate of Λ_{b}^{0} baryons relative to B^{0} mesons in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy sqrt[s]=13  TeV is measured by the LHCb experiment. The ratio of Λ_{b}^{0} to B^{0} production cross sections shows a significant dependence on both the transverse momentum and the measured charged-particle multiplicity. At low multiplicity, the ratio measured at LHCb is consistent with the value measured in e^{+}e^{-} collisions, and increases by a factor of ∼2 with increasing multiplicity. At relatively low transverse momentum, the ratio of Λ_{b}^{0} to B^{0} cross sections is higher than what is measured in e^{+}e^{-} collisions, but converges with the e^{+}e^{-} ratio as the momentum increases. These results imply that the evolution of heavy b quarks into final-state hadrons is influenced by the density of the hadronic environment produced in the collision. Comparisons with several models and implications for the mechanisms enforcing quark confinement are discussed.

[Construction of a diagnostic model for fatty liver using human body composition analysis]

Objective: To construct a diagnostic model for fatty liver using body composition analysis and further evaluate the diagnostic effect of the model on fatty liver. Methods: 726 cases with chronic liver disease who visited Tianjin Second People's Hospital from April 2019 to June 2022 and had body composition analysis tests were retrospectively enrolled and were divided into a fatty liver group (551 cases with fatty liver) and a control group (175 cases without fatty liver) according to the measured values of abdominal ultrasound and controlled attenuation parameter. An independent sample t-test and a non-parametric rank sum test were used for statistical processing. Logistic regression was used to construct a diagnostic model. Hosmer-Lemeshow was used to validate the fit of model. Receiver operating characteristic curve was used to confirm the diagnostic efficiency of the model. In addition, 341 cases of chronic liver disease who visited Tianjin Second People's Hospital were included to further verify the application effect of the model between July 2022 and February 2023. Results: Compared with the control group, the differences in various indicators of body composition analysis in the fatty liver group were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Basal metabolic rate (X1), visceral fat area (X2), and body fat (X3) were eventually included in the diagnostic model for BCA-FL (body composition analysis-fatty liver)= -7.771+0.002X1-0.035X2+0.456X3 with the Hosmer-Lemeshow test (P=0.059). The measured area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, the sensitivity, and the specificity were 0.888, 0.889, and 0.726, respectively, when the diagnostic threshold value was 0.615 with the Youden index and the receiver operating characteristic curve. In the validated model group, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, Youden index, sensitivity, and specificity were 0.875, 0.624, 0.799, and 0.825, respectively. Conclusion: The diagnostic model BCA-FL for fatty liver constructed using human body composition analysis has good diagnostic efficacy and is suitable for screening fatty liver in different basic liver disease populations.

[Construction and preliminary validation of a risk prediction model for the recurrence of diabetic foot ulcer in diabetic patients]

Objective: To develop a risk prediction model for the recurrence of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) in diabetic patients and primarily validate its predictive value. Methods: Meta-analysis combined with retrospective cohort study was conducted. The Chinese and English papers on risk factors related to DFU recurrence publicly published in China Biology Medicine disc, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, VIP Database, and PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science, and the search time was from the establishment date of each database until March 31st, 2022. The papers were screened and evaluated, the data were extracted, a meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4.1 statistical software to screen risk factors for DFU recurrence, and Egger's linear regression was used to assess the publication bias of the study results. Risk factors for DFU recurrence mentioned in ≥3 studies and with statistically significant differences in the meta-analysis were selected as the independent variables to develop a logistic regression model for risk prediction of DFU recurrence. The medical records of 101 patients with DFU who met the inclusion criteria and were admitted to Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University from January 2019 to June 2022 were collected. There were 69 males and 32 females, aged (63±14) years. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of the predictive performance of the above constructed predictive model for DFU recurrence was drawn, and the area under the ROC curve, maximum Youden index, and sensitivity and specificity at the point were calculated. Dataset including data of 8 risk factors for DFU recurrence and the DFU recurrence rates of 10 000 cases was simulated using RStudio software and a scatter plot was drawn to determine two probabilities for risk division of DFU recurrence. Using the β coefficients corresponding to 8 DFU recurrence risk factors ×10 and taking the integer as the score of coefficient weight of each risk factor, the total score was obtained by summing up, and the cutoff scores for risk level division were calculated based on the total score × two probabilities for risk division of DFU recurrence. Results: Finally, 20 papers were included, including 3 case-control studies and 17 cohort studies, with a total of 4 238 cases and DFU recurrence rate of 22.7% to 71.2%. Meta-analysis showed that glycosylated hemoglobin >7.5% and with plantar ulcer, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, diabetic peripheral vascular disease, smoking, osteomyelitis, history of amputation/toe amputation, and multidrug-resistant bacterial infection were risk factors for the recurrence of DFU (with odds ratios of 3.27, 3.66, 4.05, 3.94, 1.98, 7.17, 11.96, 3.61, 95% confidence intervals of 2.79-3.84, 2.06-6.50, 2.50-6.58, 2.65-5.84, 1.65-2.38, 2.29-22.47, 4.60-31.14, 3.13-4.17, respectively, P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in publication biases of diabetic peripheral neuropathy, diabetic peripheral vascular disease, glycosylated hemoglobin >7.5%, plantar ulcer, smoking, multidrug-resistant bacterial infection, or osteomyelitis (P>0.05), but there was a statistically significant difference in the publication bias of amputation/toe amputation (t=-30.39, P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of the predictive model was 0.81 (with 95% confidence interval of 0.71-0.91) and the maximum Youden index was 0.59, at which the sensitivity was 72% and the specificity was 86%. Ultimately, 29.0% and 44.8% were identified respectively as the cutoff for dividing the probability of low risk and medium risk, and medium risk and high risk for DFU recurrence, while the corresponding total scores of low, medium, and high risks of DFU recurrence were <37, 37-57, and 58-118, respectively. Conclusions: Eight risk factors for DFU recurrence are screened through meta-analysis and the risk prediction model for DFU recurrence is developed, which has moderate predictive accuracy and can provide guidance for healthcare workers to take interventions for patient with DFU recurrence risk.

Characterization of uropathogenic Escherichia coli phylogroups associated with antimicrobial resistance, virulence factor distribution, and virulence-related phenotypes

In this study, we compared the characteristics of different uropathogenic Escherichia coli phylogroups. A total of 844 E. coli isolated from urine were enrolled and the antimicrobial susceptibility of E. coli to 22 antibiotics was determined by disk diffusion test. The distribution of phylogroups and 20 virulence factor genes was determined by PCR. Phenotypes associated with bacterial virulence, including motility, biofilm formation, and the production of curli and siderophore, were examined. Phylogroup B2 was dominant in our isolates (64.8%), followed by phylogroups D (8.6%), B1 (7.8%), F (6.0%), C (4.5%), A (3.1%), untypable (2.8%), E (1.8%), and clade I (0.5%). The prevalence of multidrug-resistant strains was highest in phylogroup C (86.8%), followed by E (80.0%), F (75.0%), and D (71.2%). Moreover, 23.5% of the phylogroup F E. coli were extensively drug-resistant. Phylogroup B2 E. coli had an average of the highest virulence factor genes (10.1 genes/isolate). Compared to phylogroup B2 E. coli, phylogroups F and clade I E. coli had higher motility while phylogroup C E. coli had lower motility. >60% of phylogroups A and C E. coli showed very low curli production. In contrast, 14%, 10%, and 7%, of E. coli in phylogroups F, B2, and E, produced a very high amount of curli, respectively. Surprisingly, phylogroup A E. coli showed the highest virulence to larvae, followed by phylogroups B2 and C. In summary, we first characterized and revealed that the antimicrobial resistance, virulence gene distribution, motility, and curli production, were associated with in E. coli phylogroups.

A 24-year longitudinal study of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from patients with bacteraemia and urinary tract infections reveals the association between capsular serotypes, antibiotic resistance, and virulence gene distribution

Longitudinal studies on the variations of phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of K. pneumoniae across two decades are rare. We aimed to determine the antimicrobial susceptibility and virulence factors for K. pneumoniae isolated from patients with bacteraemia or urinary tract infection (UTI) from 1999 to 2022. A total of 699 and 1,267 K. pneumoniae isolates were isolated from bacteraemia and UTI patients, respectively, and their susceptibility to twenty antibiotics was determined; PCR was used to identify capsular serotypes and virulence-associated genes. K64 and K1 serotypes were most frequently observed in UTI and bacteraemia, respectively, with an increasing frequency of K20, K47, and K64 observed in recent years. entB and wabG predominated across all isolates and serotypes; the least frequent virulence gene was htrA. Most isolates were susceptible to carbapenems, amikacin, tigecycline, and colistin, with the exception of K20, K47, and K64 where resistance was widespread. The highest average number of virulence genes was observed in K1, followed by K2, K20, and K5 isolates, which suggest their contribution to the high virulence of K1. In conclusion, we found that the distribution of antimicrobial susceptibility, virulence gene profiles, and capsular types of K. pneumoniae over two decades were associated with their clinical source.

[Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of Nocardia rubra cell wall skeleton immunotherapy for cervical high-risk HPV persistent infection]

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Nocardia rubra cell wall skeleton (Nr-CWS) in the treatment of persistent cervical high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection. Methods: A randomized, double blind, multi-center trial was conducted. A total of 688 patients with clinically and pathologically confirmed HR-HPV infection of the cervix diagnosed in 13 hispital nationwide were recruited and divided into: (1) patients with simple HR-HPV infection lasting for 12 months or more; (2) patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) Ⅰ and HR-HPV infection lasting for 12 months or more; (3) patients with the same HR-HPV subtype with no CINⅡ and more lesions after treatment with CINⅡ or CIN Ⅲ (CINⅡ/CIN Ⅲ). All participants were randomly divided into the test group and the control group at a ratio of 2∶1. The test group was locally treated with Nr-CWS freeze-dried powder and the control group was treated with freeze-dried powder without Nr-CWS. The efficacy and negative conversion rate of various subtypes of HR-HPV were evaluated at 1, 4, 8, and 12 months after treatment. The safety indicators of initial diagnosis and treatment were observed. Results: (1) This study included 555 patients with HR-HPV infection in the cervix (included 368 in the test group and 187 in the control group), with an age of (44.1±10.0) years. The baseline characteristics of the two groups of subjects, including age, proportion of Han people, weight, composition of HR-HPV subtypes, and proportion of each subgroup, were compared with no statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). (2) After 12 months of treatment, the effective rates of the test group and the control group were 91.0% (335/368) and 44.9% (84/187), respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (χ²=142.520, P<0.001). After 12 months of treatment, the negative conversion rates of HPV 16, 18, 52, and 58 infection in the test group were 79.2% (84/106), 73.3% (22/30), 83.1% (54/65), and 77.4% (48/62), respectively. The control group were 21.6% (11/51), 1/9, 35.1% (13/37), and 20.0% (8/40), respectively. The differences between the two groups were statistically significant (all P<0.001). (3) There were no statistically significant differences in vital signs (body weight, body temperature, respiration, pulse rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, etc.) and laboratory routine indicators (blood cell analysis, urine routine examination) between the test group and the control group before treatment and at 1, 4, 8, and 12 months after treatment (all P>0.05); there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions related to the investigational drug between the two groups of subjects [8.7% (32/368) vs 8.0% (15/187), respectively; χ²=0.073, P=0.787]. Conclusion: External use of Nr-CWS has good efficacy and safety in the treatment of high-risk HPV persistent infection in the cervix.

Objective: To report the perioperative management and robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery results of one case with malignant tumor of anal canal combined with severe abdominal distention. Methods: A 66-year-old male suffer from adenocarcinoma of anal canal (T3N0M0) with megacolon, megabladder and scoliosis. The extreme distention of the colon and bladder result in severe abdominal distention. The left diaphragm moved up markedly and the heart was moved to the right side of the thoracic cavity. Moreover, there was also anal stenosis with incomplete intestinal obstruction. Preoperative preparation: fluid diet, intravenous nutrition and repeated enema to void feces and gas in the large intestine 1 week before operation. Foley catheter was placed three days before surgery and irrigated with saline. After relief of abdominal distention, robotic-assisted abdominoperineal resection+ subtotal colectomy+colostomy was performed. Results: Water intake within 6 hours post-operatively; ambulance on Day 1; anal passage of gas on Day 2; semi-fluid diet on Day 3; safely discharged on Day 6. Conclusion: Robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery is safe and feasible for patients with malignant tumor of anal canal combined with severe abdominal distention after appropriate and effective preoperative preparation to relieve abdominal distention.

[Summary of the best evidence on exercise for the prevention and treatment of diabetic foot]

Conclusions: Totally 33 pieces of best evidences on exercise for the prevention and treatment of diabetic foot were summarized from 5 aspects, providing decision-making basis for clinical guidance on exercise practice for patients with diabetic foot.

[Identification of core pathogenic genes and pathways in elderly osteoporosis based on bioinformatics analysis]

Objective: Using bioinformatics methods to analyze the core pathogenic genes and related pathways in elderly osteoporosis. Methods: From November 2020 and August 2021, eight elderly osteoporosis patients who received treatment and five healthy participants who underwent physical examinations in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital were selected as subjects. The expression level of RNA in the peripheral blood of eight elderly osteoporosis patients and five healthy participants was collected for high-throughput transcriptome sequencing and analysis. The gene ontology (GO) analysis Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis was performed for the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed using the STRING website and Cytoscape software, and the most significant modules and hub genes were screened out. Results: Among the eight elderly osteoporosis patients, there were seven females and one male, with an average age of 72.4 years (SD=4.2). Among the five healthy participants, there were four females and one male, with an average age of 68.2 years (SD=5.7). A total of 1 635 DEGs (847 up-regulated and 788 down-regulated) were identified. GO analysis revealed that the molecular functions of DEGs were mainly enriched in structural constituents of the ribosome, protein dimerization activity, and cellular components were mainly enriched in the nucleosome, DNA packaging complex, cytosolic part, protein-DNA complex and the cytosolic ribosome. KEGG pathway analysis showed that DEGs were mainly enriched in systemic lupus erythematosus and ribosome. Gene UBA52, UBB, RPS27A, RPS15, RPS12, RPL13A, RPL23A, RPL10A, RPS25 and RPS6 were selected and seven of them could encode ribosome proteins. Conclusion: The pathogenesis of elderly osteoporosis may be associated with ribosome-related genes and pathways.

[Expression and clinical significance of circRNA cSMARCA5 in patients with acute myocardial infarction]

Objective: To investigate the expression level and clinical significance of cSMARCA5 in the patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods: This study was a case-control study. A total of 100 patients with AMI and 100 patients without coronary heart disease who received treatment in the Department of Cardiology, Peking University Third Hospital from September to December 2021 were included in the study according to the principle of 1∶1 frequency matching. The expression levels of cSMARCA5 in the peripheral blood of AMI patients and control groups were measured by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to calculate the diagnostic ability of cSMARCA5 for AMI. Spearman or Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between cSMARCA5 and the degree of myocardial necrosis, coronary lesion severity and GRACE risk stratification score. Bioinformatics analysis was used to predict the possible mechanism of cSMARCA5 in pathological changes of AMI. Results: The age [M (Q₁,Q₃)] of AMI patients and control group was 63.0 (56.0, 71.5) and 63.0 (53.0, 75.5) (P=0.622), and the proportion of males was 75.0% (75 cases) and 46.0% (46 cases) (P<0.001), respectively. The expression level [M (Q₁,Q₃)] of cSMARCA5 was significantly lower in AMI patients compared with the control group [0.37 (0.22, 0.73) vs 1.03(0.71, 1.75), P<0.001]. ROC analysis showed that the area under the curve of cSMARCA5 in diagnosing AMI was 0.83 (95%CI: 0.77-0.89, P<0.001), with a sensitivity of 89.0% and specificity of 67.7%. cSMARCA5 was negatively correlated with creatine kinase isoenzyme MB (r=-0.203, P=0.041), troponin T (r=-0.230, P=0.023) and N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide precursor (r=-0.250, P=0.012), and positively correlated with left ventricular ejection fraction (r=0.201, P=0.042). In addition, the expression level of cSMARCA5 was negatively correlated with SYNTAX score (r=-0.196, P=0.048) and GRACE risk score (r=-0.321, P=0.001). Bioinformatic analysis suggested that cSMARCA5 might be involved in the process of AMI through regulating the gene expression of tumor necrosis factor. Conclusions: The expression of cSMARCA5 is significantly decreased in peripheral blood of AMI patients compared with control group, and its expression level is negatively correlated with the severity of myocardial infarction. cSMARCA5 is expected to be a potential biomarker of AMI.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 23 733 children with respiratory tract infection who visited the department of pediatrics of Ningbo Women and Children's Hospital from July 2019 to December 2021. There were 13 509 males (56.92%) and 10 224 females (43.08%), with an age range of 1 day to 18 years old. There were 981 cases in the neonatal group (younger than 1 month old), 5 880 cases in the infant group (1 month to younger than 1 year old), 6 552 cases in the toddler group (1 to younger than 3 years old), 7 638 cases in the preschool group (3 to younger than 7 years old), and 2 682 cases in the school-age group (7 to 18 years old). Thirteen respiratory pathogens were detected by multiple polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based on capillary electrophoresis, and SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistical analysis of the results, the count data were expressed as percentages, and the χ² test was used for comparison between groups. Results: Of the 23 733 specimens, 13 330 were positive for respiratory pathogens, with a total positive rate of 56.17%. The positive rates of human rhinovirus (HRV) 24.05% (5 707/23 733), human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) 10.45% (2 480/2 3733) and mycoplasma pneumoniae (Mp) 7.03% (1 668/23 733) were in the first three. The positive rates of pathogens in the male and female children were 57.47% (7 763/13 509) and 54.45% (5 567/10 224), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (χ²=21.488, P<0.001). The positive rates in the neonatal group, infant group, toddler group, preschool group, and school-age group were 31.80% (312/981), 54.71% (3 217/5 880), 63.23% (4 143/6 552), 59.83% (4 570/7 638), 40.57% (1 088/2 682), respectively, and the difference among the groups was statistically significant (χ²=681.225, P<0.001). The single infection rate was 47.43% (11 256/23 733), the mixed infection rate of two or more pathogens was 8.74% (2 074/23 733), most of which were mixed infections of two pathogens. HRV, HADV, HCOV, Ch disseminated in the whole year. HRSV, HMPV, Boca, HPIV occurred mostly in fall and winter. The positive rates of FluA, FluB, Mp were at a low level after the corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic (2020 and 2021). The positive rates of FluA, H1N1, H3N2, FluB, HADV, Mp in 2020 were significantly lower than in 2019 (P<0.05). The positive rates of HPIV, HRV, HCOV, Ch in 2020 were significantly higher than in 2019 (P<0.05). The positive rates of FluA, H1N1, H3N2, HPIV, HCOV, Mp, Ch in 2021 were significantly lower than in 2020 (P<0.05). The positive rates of Boca, HMPV, HRSV in 2021 were significantly higher than in 2020 (P<0.05). Conclusion: From 2019 to 2021, the main non-bacterial respiratory pathogens of children in Ningbo City were Mp and HRV, and the detection rates of respiratory pathogens varied among different ages, seasons and genders.

[Prognosis and fertility outcomes of patients with borderline ovarian tumors after fertility-sparing surgery]

Objective: To explore the clinical prognosis and fertility outcomes in patients with borderline ovarian tumors (BOT) who underwent fertility-sparing surgery, and evaluate the related risk factors. Methods: The study examined the clinicopathological characteristics of 280 patients diagnosed with BOT from Qilu Hospital of Shandong University between January 2009 and December 2019. According to the surgery plan, the patients were divided into the fertility-sparing group (167 cases) and the radical surgery group (113 cases). The information of the patients' age, preoperative serum CA-125 level, surgery method, pathological type, FIGO stage (2014), tumor location, and whether focal canceration combined were collected. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to compare disease-free survival (DFS) between the fertility-sparing surgery group and the radical surgery group. The univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis was used to explore high-risk factors associated with DFS. Results: A total of 280 BOT patients were identified in the study, with a median age of 35.0 (26.0, 51.0) years old. The median follow-up time was 55.2 (34.7, 79.3)months. 25 patients (15.0%) developed recurrence in the fertility-sparing surgery group, 11 patients (8.7%) developed recurrence in the radical surgery group. There was no significant difference in 5-year DFS rate between the two groups (84.4% vs 90.1%, P=0.223). Only FIGO stage was found to be related to DFS through the univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazard regression analysis, and patients with FIGO Ⅱ/Ⅲ had higher risk of recurrence [HR (95%CI) 2.872(1.283-6.431)] (P=0.010); Fertility-sparing surgery does not increase the recurrence risk of BOT patients (P=0.116). Pregnancies were reported in 39 patients (54.2%), among whom 37 patients gave birth successfully, and 2 patients selected to terminate pregnancy. Conclusions: The fertility-sparing surgery does not increase the risk of recurrence in BOT patients, and patients who underwent the fertility-sparing surgery have a favorable outcome. FIGO stage is the independent risk factor of DFS in BOT patients.

A Longitudinal Nine-Year Study of the Molecular Epidemiology of Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacterales Isolated From a Regional Hospital in Taiwan: Predominance of Carbapenemase KPC-2 and OXA-48

Enterobacterales clinical isolates are now being resistant to clinically achievable concentrations of most commonly used antibiotics that makes treatment of hospitalized patients very challenging. We hereby determine the molecular characteristics of carbapenemase genes in carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) isolates in Taiwan. A total of 455 CRE isolates were identified between August 2011 to July 2020. Minimum inhibitory concentrations for selected carbapenems were tested using Vitek 2, and carbapenemase genes were determined using polymerase chain reaction in combination with sequencing. Phenotypic detection of carbapenemase was determined by modified carbapenem inactivation method (mCIM) and EDTA-modified carbapenem inactivation method (eCIM) to validate our PCR screening results. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) was used to determine the clonality of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) isolates, and the transferability of carbapenemase-carrying plasmids was determined by conjugation assays. A slight increase in carbapenem-resistant E. coli (CREC) was observed, however, the prevalence of carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae (CRKP) was steady, during 2011–2020. The dominant species among our CRE was K. pneumoniae (270/455, 59.3%), followed by E. coli (81/455, 17.8%), Morganella morganii (32/455, 7.0%), and Enterobacter cloacae (25/455, 5.5%). From 2011 to 2020, the total percentage of CPE increased steadily, accounting for 61.0% of CRE in 2020. Moreover, 122 of 455 CRE isolates (26.8%) were CPE. Among the CPE isolates, the dominant carbapenemase gene was bla_{OXA–48–like} (54/122, 44.3%), and the second most common carbapenemase gene was bla_KPC–2 (47/122, 38.5%). The sensitivity and specificity for mCIM to detect carbapenemase in the 455 isolates were both 100% in this study. The PFGE results showed that 39 carbapenemase-producing E. coli and 69 carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae isolates carrying bla_KPC–2 and/or bla_NDM–5 could be classified into 5 and 12 clusters, respectively. In conclusion, our results showed an increase in CPE isolates in Taiwan. Moreover, the distribution of carbapenemase and antimicrobial susceptibility in CPE were associated with PFGE typing.

[Advances of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery in the combined treatment of primary angle-closure glaucoma]

Glaucoma is the leading irreversible blinding eye disease worldwide, and China has the largest amount of primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG). To reduce blindness, the therapeutic evolution can play a role. With the technical development of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS), the treatment of angle-closure glaucoma has been in a transformation. This article reviews the literatures related to the advances of MIGS in the combined treatment of PACG. The research findings show that MIGS may become one of the preferred surgical treatments for PACG in the future clinical management of glaucoma.

Propofol ameliorates acute postoperative fatigue and promotes glucagon-regulated hepatic gluconeogenesis by activating CREB/PGC-1α and accelerating fatty acids beta-oxidation

Postoperative fatigue (POF) is the most common and long-lasting complication after surgery, which brings heavy burden to individuals and society. Recently, hastening postoperative recovery receives increasing attention, but unfortunately, the mechanisms underlying POF remain unclear. Propofol is a wildly used general anesthetic in clinic, and inspired by the rapid antidepressant effects induced by ketamine at non-anesthetic dose, the present study was undertaken to investigate the anti-fatigue effects and underlying mechanisms of propofol at a non-anesthetic dose in 70% hepatectomy induced POF model in rats. We first showed here that single administration of propofol at 0.1 mg/kg ameliorated acute POF in hepatectomy induced POF rats. Based on metabonomics analysis, we hypothesized that propofol exerted anti-fatigue activity in POF rats by facilitating free fatty acid (FFA) oxidation and gluconeogenesis. We further confirmed that propofol restored the deficit in FFA oxidation and gluconeogenesis in POF rats, as evidenced by the elevated FFA utilization, acetyl coenzyme A content, pyruvic acid content, phosphoenolpyruvic acid content, hepatic glucose output and glycogen storage. Moreover, propofol stimulated glucagon secretion and up-regulated expression of cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB), phosphorylated CREB, peroxlsome prolifeator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinade1 and carnitine palmitoltransferase 1A. In summary, our study suggests for the first time that propofol ameliorates acute POF by promoting glucagon-regulated gluconeogenesis via CREB/PGC-1α signaling and accelerating FFA beta-oxidation.

[Short-term outcome of programmed cell death protein1 (PD-1) antibody combined with total neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced middle-low rectal cancer with high risk factors]

Objective: Total neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy is one of the standard treatments for locally advanced rectal cancer. This study aims to investigate the safety and feasibility of programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) antibody combined with total neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced middle-low rectal cancer with high-risk factors. Methods: A descriptive cohort study was conducted. Clinicopathological data of 24 patients with locally advanced middle-low rectal cancer with high-risk factors receiving PD-1 antibody combined with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in Gastrointestinal Cancer Center, Unit III, Peking University Cancer Hospital between January 2019 and April 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Inclusion criteria: (1) rectal adenocarcinoma confirmed by pathology; patient age of ≥ 18 years and ≤ 80 years; (2) the distance from low margin of tumor to anal verge ≤ 10 cm under sigmoidoscopy; (3) ECOG performance status score 0-1; (4) clinical stage T3c, T3d, T4a or T4b, or extramural venous invasion (EMVI) (+) or mrN2 (+) or mesorectal fasciae (MRF) (+) based on MRI; (5) no evidence of distant metastases; (6) no prior pelvic radiation therapy, no prior chemotherapy or surgery for rectal cancer; (7) no systemic infection requiring antibiotic treatment and no immune system disease. Exclusion criteria: (1) anticipated unresectable tumor after neoadjuvant treatment; (2) patients with a history of a prior malignancy within the past 5 years, or with a history of any arterial thrombotic event within the past 6 months; (3) patients received other types of antitumor or experimental therapy; (4) women who were pregnant or breast-feeding; (5) patients with any other concurrent medical or psychiatric condition or disease; (6) patients received immunotherapy (PD-1 antibody). The neoadjuvant therapy consisted of three stages: PD-1 antibody (sintilimab 200 mg, IV, Q3W) combined with CapeOx regimen for three cycles; long-course intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) with gross tumor volume (GTV) 50.6 Gy/CTV 41.8 Gy/22f; CapeOx regimen for two cycles after radiotherapy. After oncological evaluation following the end of the third stage of treatment, surgery or watch and wait would be carried out. Surgical safety, histopathological changes and short-term oncological outcome were analyzed. Results: There were 15 males and 9 females with a median age of 65 (47-78) years. Median distance from the lower margin of the tumor to the anal verge was 4 (3-7) cm. The median maximal diameter of the tumor was 5.1 (2.1-7.5) cm. Twenty patients were cT3, 4 were cT4, 8 were cN1, 5 were cN2a, 11 were cN2b. Ten cases were MRF (+) and 10 were EMVI (+). All the patients were mismatch repair proficient (pMMR). During the neoadjuvant treatment period, 6 patients (25.0%) developed grade 1-2 treatment-related adverse events, including 3 immune-related adverse events. As of April 30, 2021, 20 patients (83.3%, 20/24) had received surgical resection, including 19 R0 resections and 16 sphincter-preservation operations. Morbidity of postoperative complication was 25.0% (5/20), including 2 cases of Clavien-Dindo grade II (1 of anastomotic bleeding and 1 of pseudomembranous enteritis), 3 cases of grade I anastomotic stenosis. Pathological complete response (pCR) rate was 30.0% (6/20) and major pathological response rate was 20.0% (4/20). None of Ras/Raf mutants had pCR or cCR (0/5), while 6 of 17 Ras/Raf wild-type patients had pCR and 3 had cCR, which was significantly higher than that of Ras/Raf mutants (P<0.01). Nine of 16 patients with Ras/Raf wild-type and differentiated adenocarcinoma had pCR or cCR. Among other 4 patients without surgery, 3 patients preferred watch and wait strategy because their tumors were assessed as clinical complete response (cCR), while another one patient refused surgery as the tumor remained stable. After a median follow-up of 11 (6-24) months, only 1 patient with signet ring cell carcinoma had recurrence. Conclusions: PD-1 antibody combined with total neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer has quite good safety and histopathological regression results. Combination of histology and genetic testing is helpful to screen potential beneficiaries.

Design of an electric-driven nonvolatile low-energy-consumption phase change optical switch

Traditional optical switches relying on the weak, volatile thermo-optic or electro-optic effects of Si or SiN waveguides show a high consumption and large footprint. In this paper, we reported an electric-driven phase change optical switch consisting of a Si waveguide, Ge₂Sb₂Te₅(GST) thin film and graphene heater suitable for large-scale integration and high-speed switching. The reversible transition between the amorphous and crystalline states was achieved by applying two different voltage pulses of 1.4 V (SET) and 4 V (RESET). The optical performance of the proposed switch showed a high extinction ration of 44-46 dB in a wide spectral range (1525-1575 nm), an effective index variation of Δn_eff = 0.49 and a mode loss variation of Δα = 15 dBμm^-1at the wavelength of 1550 nm. In thermal simulations, thanks to the ultra-high thermal conductivity of graphene, the proposed switch showed that the consumption for the SET process was only 3.528 pJ with a 1.4 V pulse of 5 ns, while a 4 V pulse of 1.5 ns was needed for RESET process with a consumption of 1.05 nJ. Our work is helpful to analyze the thermal-conduction phase transition process of on-chip phase change optical switches, and the design of the low-energy-consumption switch is conducive to the integrated application of photonic chips.

[The prognostic impact of diabetic mellitus and hyperglycemia during DLBCL treatment on patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma]

目的

探讨弥漫大B细胞淋巴瘤（DLBCL）患者的临床特征和预后因素，评估合并糖尿病（DM）及治疗过程中发生血糖升高对DLBCL预后的影响。

方法

回顾性收集2009年1月1日至2019年12月31日天津医科大学肿瘤医院及中山大学肿瘤防治中心收治的481例初诊DLBCL患者的临床资料，重点关注其治疗前及治疗中的血糖水平，采用Cox回归风险模型进行单因素分析评估预后影响因素，采用Kaplan-Meier法绘制生存曲线分析血糖异常对DLBCL患者总生存（OS）、无进展生存（PFS）的影响。

结果

82例（17.0％）患者在诊断DLBCL前患DM，88例（18.3％）患者在DLBCL治疗过程中至少发生一次血糖升高。单因素分析显示，年龄、Ann-Arbor分期、IPI评分、是否合并DM与OS、PFS相关（P值均<0.05）。组间比较显示，合并DM组与治疗过程中血糖升高组的OS和PFS均较无血糖异常组差（OS：P值分别为0.001、0.003，PFS：P值均<0.001），合并DM组与治疗过程中血糖升高组相比OS和PFS的差异均无统计学意义（P值分别为0.557、0.463）。化疗期间血糖控制良好组的OS和PFS优于血糖控制差组（OS：P＝0.037，PFS：P＝0.007）。

结论

合并DM是影响DLBCL患者预后的重要因素，治疗过程中血糖升高与DLBCL患者的不良预后相关。

Phase stability, brittle-ductile transition, and electronic structures of the TiAl alloying with Fe, Ru, Ge, and Sn: a first-principle investigation

Phase stability, brittle-ductile transition, and electronic structures of M (M = Fe, Ru, Ge, and Sn) and content change of L10-TiAl (γ-TiAl) and B2-TiAl (β-TiAl) have been investigated using first-principle methods. It is found that M metal atoms preferentially occupy the Al (2e) sites in L10-TiAl and B2-TiAl. According to Pugh's ratio and Poisson's ratio, the brittle-ductile transition is predicted for L10-TiAl and B2-TiAl with Fe, Ru, Ge, and Sn. It is found that the brittle-ductile transition from brittle regions to ductile regions with the transition metal elements Fe and Ru in L10-TiAl and B2-TiAl at the low concentration is approximately from 0 to 6.25 at.%. However, the brittle-ductile transition of Ge and Sn at the high concentration approximates from 6.25 to 12.5 at.% in L10-TiAl, comparing with B2-TiAl which approximates from 12.5 to 18.75 at.%. Electronic structure analysis shows that the improvement of brittleness can be attributed to two factors, including different hybridizations of Al-2p (Ti-3d) orbits with Fe-3d (Ge-4p) and Ru-4d (Sn-5p) orbits and different bandwidths of pseudo-gap. Furthermore, the L10-TiAl and B2-TiAl at low concentration of Fe and Ru can increase the value of ELF, where Ge and Sn atoms become bigger at a high concentration in L10-TiAl and B2-TiAl. At last, elastic constant (C_ij), bulk modulus (B), shear modulus (G), and Young's modulus (E) of L10 and B2-TiAl with content change are systematically given.

[Tap-hammer elicited vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials system: its design and preliminary application]

Objective: The aim of this study was to design and perform "Tap-hammer"system that can be used to elicit vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMP) in normal adults and to report the preliminary results of this system. Methods: A triggered Tap-hammer was designed, made and connected with an electric recording system, to form as a system for Tap-VEMP recording. Twenty healthy adult volunteers (7 males and 13 females, aged 20 to 37 years, 40 ears in total) were recruited for air-conducted sound VEMP (ACS-VEMP) and Tap-VEMP examinations. Waveforms and parameters of both VEMPs were recorded and analyzed. SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results: The response rates of ACS-, Tap-ocular VEMP (oVEMP) and ACS-, Tap-cervical VEMP (cVEMP) were both 100% (40/40). The mean±SD n1 latency, p1 latency, n1-p1 interval, amplitude, and asymmetry ratio (AR%) of Tap-oVEMP were (9.80±2.51)ms, (13.90±3.26)ms, (4.09±1.43)ms, (16.43±9.61)μV, (22.68±17.35)% respectively. The mean±SD p1 latency, n1 latency, p1-n1 interval, amplitude, and asymmetry ratio (AR%) of Tap-cVEMP were (13.26±2.07)ms, (21.84±2.89)ms, (8.58±2.10)ms, (457.65±274.94)μV, (20.42±13.46)% respectively. Both n1 latency and p1 latency of Tap-VEMPs were shorter than those in ACS-VEMPs (P<0.05). No statistical difference could be found between the two stimulation methods in the parameters of n1-p1 interval, amplitude, and asymmetry ratio(P>0.05). Conclusion: The Tap-hammer system can elicit VEMP responses in healthy young people. This system can be used as an alternative stimulation method for bone conduction VEMP.

[Circular RNA-UBXN7 promotes proliferation, migration and suppresses apoptosis in hepatocellular cancer]

Objective: To investigate the effect and molecular mechanism of circular RNA-UBXN7 (circ_UBXN7) on the proliferation, migration and apoptosis of hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Methods: Circ_UBXN7 expression in the tissues and cells of hepatocellular cancer was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and the relationship between circ_UBXN7 expression and clinicopathological features, including age, gender, tumor volume, pathological classification, staging, and lymph node metastasis was analyzed. The full-length sequence of circ_UBXN7 with lentivirus carrying lenti circ_UBXN7 and lenti circ_UBXN7 shRNA was constructed to transfect hepatocellular cell lines (HepG2 and Huh-7), respectively. CCK-8 experiments were performed to detect the ability of up- or down-regulation of circ_UBXN7 on the proliferation of HEPG2 and HUH-7 cells. Annexin V / PI experiment was used to detect the changes in apoptosis of HEPG2 and HUH-7 cells after up-regulation or down-regulation of circ_UBXN7 expression. JC-1 assay was used to detect the changes in mitochondrial potential energy of HEPG2 and HUH-7 cells after up-regulation or down-regulation of circ_UBXN7 expression. Transwell was used to detect the migration ability of HEPG2 and HUH-7 cells after up-regulation or down-regulation of circ_UBXN7 expression. Western blotting was used to detect the expressional change of TWIST, E-cadherin, N-cadherin and vimentin. Statistical analysis: The expression levels of circ_UBXN7 and clinicopathological features were measured by chi-square test. Two groups were compared by t-test and three groups and above were compared by single factor analysis of variance. LSD method was used for comparison between groups. Results: The expression of circ_UBXN7 in liver cancer tissues was significantly higher than adjacent tissues, and its expression level was significantly positively correlated with tumor volume, stage, and lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05). Lenti-circ_UBXN7 had up-regulated the expression of circ_UBXN7 in HEPG2 and HUH-7 cells and promoted cell proliferation. Lenti-circ_UBXN7-shRNA had down-regulated the expression of circ_UBXN7 and induced apoptosis. Lenti-circ_UBXN7-shRNA had reduced the mitochondrial membrane potential of cells. Lenti-circ_UBXN7 had promoted cell migration, while lenti-circ_UBXN7-shRNA had inhibited cell migration. Lenti-circ_UBXN7 had induced increased expression of Twist, N-cadherin, and Vimentin proteins, and reduced the expression of E-cadherin protein. Lenti-circ_UBXN7-shRNA had opposite effects on the expression levels of each protein. Starbase V2.0 software showed that miR-203a and circ_UBXN7 had potential binding sites, and miR-203a and circ_UBXN7 expression levels were negatively correlated in HEP ​​G2 and HUH-7 cells. Conclusion: circ_UBXN7 plays an important role in promoting the occurrence and development of liver cancer, and is expected to become a potential target for the treatment of liver cancer.

[Analysis on the consciousness of the cancer early detection and its influencing factors among urban residents in China from 2015 to 2017]

Objective: To understand the consciousness of the cancer early detection among urban residents and identify the influencing factors from 2015 to 2017. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 16 provinces covered by the Cancer Screening Program in Urban China from 2015 to 2017. A total of 32 257 local residents aged ≥18 years old who could understand the investigation procedure were included in the study by using the cluster sampling method and convenient sampling method. All local residents were categorized into four groups, which contained 15 524 community residents, 8 016 cancer risk assessment/screening population, 2 289 cancer patients and 6 428 occupational population, respectively. Self-designed questionnaires were used to collect population, socioeconomic indicators, self-cancer risk assessment, regular participation in physical examination and other information. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to identify the factors of people who had not regularly participated in the regular physical examination in the past five years. Results: The self-assessment results of 32 357 residents showed that there were 27.54% (8 882) of total study population with self-reported cancer risk, 45.48% (14 671) without cancer risk and 26.98% (8 704) with unclear judgement on their own cancer risk. Among population with cancer risk, 79.84% (7 091) considered physical examination accounted. In the past five years, there were 21 105 (65.43%) residents participated in regular physical examination and 11 148 (34.56%) participated in non-scheduled one, respectively. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared with unmarried and western region residents, divorced, middle and eastern region residents had a stronger consciousness to participate in the regular physical examination (P<0.05). Compare with residents with annual household income less than 20 000 CNY in 2014, cancer risk assessment/screening intervention population, and self-assessment with cancer risk, residents with annual household income between 20 000 CNY and 59 000 CNY in 2014, occupational population, community residents, cancer patients, self-reported cancer-free risk, and self-assessment with unclear judgement of cancer risk were less likely to participate in the regular physical examination (all P values <0.05). Conclusion: From 2015 to 2017, the Chinese urban residents had a acceptable consciousness of the cancer early detection. The marital status, annual household income, population group and self-assessment of cancer risk were related to the consciousness of the cancer early detection of people who had not participated in the regular physical examination in the past five years.

[Analysis on the demand, access and related factors of cancer prevention and treatment knowledge among urban residents in China from 2015 to 2017]

Objective: To investigate the demand and access to the cancer prevention and treatment knowledge and related factors among urban residents in China from 2015 to 2017. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 16 provinces covered by the Cancer Screening Program in Urban China from 2015 to 2017. A total of 32 257 local residents aged ≥18 years old who could understand the investigation procedure were included in the study by using the cluster sampling method and convenient sampling method. All local residents were categorized into four groups, which contained 15 524 community residents, 8 016 cancer risk assessment/screening population, 2 289 cancer patients and 6 428 occupational population, respectively. The self-designed questionnaire was used to collect the information of general demographic characteristics, the demand and access to cancer prevention and treatment knowledge, and the influencing factors of the attitude. The Chi-square test was used to analyze the difference of the demand of the cancer prevention knowledge among different groups and the corresponding factors of the cancer prevention and treatment knowledge were analyzed by using the logistic regression model. Results: The proportion of residents who need the cancer prevention and treatment knowledge was 79.5%. The demand rate of the inducement, symptom and diagnosis methods of cancer in the occupational population was highest, about 66.8%, 71.0% and 20.8%, respectively. The demand rate of treatment methods and cost in current cancer patients was the highest, about the 45.9% and 21.9%, respectively. The top three sources to acquire the cancer prevention and treatment knowledge were "broadcast or television" (69.5%), "books, newspapers, posters or brochures" (44.7%) and "family and friends" (33.8%). The multivariate analysis showed that compared with public institution personnel/civil servants, unmarried/cohabiting/divorced/widowed and others, annual household income less than 20 000 CNY, from the eastern region, people without cancer diagnosis and people with self-assessment of cancer risk, the demand rate of cancer prevention and treatment knowledge was higher in enterprise personnel/workers, married, annual household income between 60 000 CNY and 150 000 CNY, from the central region, people with cancer and people with unclear cancer risk (all P values <0.05). Conclusion: There was a high demand for the cancer prevention and treatment knowledge among urban residents in China from 2015 to 2017. The main access to the knowledge is from the radio or television. The occupation, marital status, annual household income, residential region, health status and risk of disease were the main factors of the demand of the cancer prevention and treatment knowledge.

[Study on the health literacy and related factors of the cancer prevention consciousness among urban residents in China from 2015 to 2017]

Objective: To understand the health literacy and relevant factors of cancer prevention consciousness in Chinese urban residents from 2015 to 2017. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 16 provinces covered by the Cancer Screening Program in Urban China from 2015 to 2017. A total of 32 257 local residents aged ≥18 years old who could understand the investigation procedure were included in the study by using the cluster sampling method and convenient sampling method. All local residents were categorized into four groups, which contained 15 524 community residents, 8 016 cancer risk assessment/screening population, 2 289 cancer patients and 6 428 occupational population, respectively. The self-designed questionnaire was used to collect the information of demographic characteristics and cancer prevention consciousness focusing on nine common risk factors, including smoking, alcohol, fiber food, food in hot temperature or pickled food, chewing betel nut, helicobacter pylori, moldy food, hepatitis B infection, estrogen, and exercise. The logistic regression model was adopted to identify the influencing factors. Results: The overall health literacy of the cancer prevention consciousness was 77.4% (24 980 participants), with 77.4% (12 018 participants), 79.9% (6 406 participants), 77.2% (1 766 participants) and 74.5% (4 709 participants) in each group (P<0.001). The correct response rates for nine risk factors ranged from 55.2% to 93.0%. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared with community residents, people with primary school level education or below, and the number of people living together in the family <3, the cancer risk assessment/screening intervention population, cancer patients, those with junior high school level educationor above and the number of people living in the family ≥3 had better health literacy of the cancer prevention consciousness (all P values <0.05). Compared with females, 39 years old and below, government-affiliated institutions or civil servants, from the eastern region, males, older than 40 years, company or enterprise employees, and from the middle or western region had worse health literacy of the cancer prevention consciousness (all P values <0.05). Conclusion: The health literacy of the cancer prevention consciousness in Chinese urban residents should be improved. The cancer screening intervention, gender, age, education, occupation, the number of people co-living in the family, and residential region were associated with the health literacy of the cancer prevention consciousness.

[Analysis on the health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment and its related factors among urban residents in China from 2015 to 2017]

Objective: To understand the health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment among urban residents of China, and explore the related factors. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 16 provinces covered by the Cancer Screening Program in Urban China (CanSPUC) from 2015 to 2017. A total of 32 257 local residents aged ≥18 years old who could understand the investigation procedure were included in the study by using the cluster sampling method and convenient sampling method. All local residents were categorized into four groups, which contained 15 524 community residents, 8 016 cancer risk assessment/screening population, 2 289 cancer patients and 6 428 occupational population, respectively. The health literacy of the cancer prevention, early discovery, early diagnosis, early treatment and the demands of cancer prevention and treatment knowledge was analyzed. The level of health literacy among different groups were calculated and compared. The binary logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of the health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment. Results: The level of health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment was 56.97% among all study population; in each group it was 55.01% for community residents, 59.08% for cancer risk assessment/screening population, 61.99% for cancer patients and 57.31% for occupational population, respectively (P<0.001). The level of health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment of residents aged 50 to 69 years old, other occupational groups, unmarried, the central and western region residents and the group with unclear self-assessment of cancer risk was significantly lower than that of residents younger than 40 years old, personnel of public institutions/civil servants, married, the eastern region residents and the group whose self-assessment without cancer risk (P<0.05) . The level of health literacy of cancer prevention and treatment of females, people who went to high school or over, cancer risk assessment/screening population, cancer patients and occupational population was significantly higher than that of males, people who had an education level of primary school or below and community residents (P<0.05) . Conclusion: The health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment of urban residents in China was relatively high, but there was still room for improvement. Gender, age, educational level, occupation, region, marital status, self-assessment of cancer risk, and type of respondents were the key influencing factors of the health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment. Male, 50-69 years old, lower educational level, central and western regions, unclear cancer risk self-assessment, and without specific environmental exposure to cancer prevention and treatment knowledge or related risk factors were the characteristics of the key intervention group of the health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment.

[Analysis on the consciousness of the early cancer treatment and its influencing factors among urban residents in China from 2015 to 2017]

Objective: To understand the consciousness of the cancer early treatment and its demographic and socioeconomic factors. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 16 provinces covered by the Cancer Screening Program in Urban China (CanSPUC) from 2015 to 2017. A total of 32 257 local residents aged ≥18 years old who could understand the investigation procedure were included in the study by using the cluster sampling method and convenient sampling method. All local residents were categorized into four groups, which contained 15 524 community residents, 8 016 cancer risk assessment/screening population, 2 289 cancer patients and 6 428 occupational population, respectively. The questionnaire collected personal information, the consciousness of the cancer early treatment and relevant factors. The Chi square test was used to compare the difference between the consciousness of the cancer early treatment and relevant factors among the four groups. The logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors related to the consciousness of the cancer early treatment. Results: With the assumption of being diagnosed as precancer or cancer, 89.97% of community residents, 91.84% of cancer risk assessment/screening population, 93.00% of cancer patients and 91.52% of occupational population would accept active treatments (P<0.001). If the immediate family members were diagnosed as precancer or cancer, people who would encourage their family members to receive early treatment in the four groups accounted for 91.96%, 91.94%, 92.44% and 91.55%, respectively (P<0.001). The company employees, annual household income with 40 000 yuan and more and other three groups had a relatively better consciousness of the cancer early treatment (P<0.05). Male, widowed, unemployed and from the central and western regions had a relatively worse consciousness of the cancer early treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion: Residents in urban China participants had a good consciousness of the cancer early treatment. The marital status, occupation, annual household income and residential regions were major factors related to the consciousness of the cancer early treatment.

[Status of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs use in areas with a high incidence of upper gastrointestinal cancer in China: a multi-center cross-sectional survey]

Objective: To describe the status of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) use in areas with a high incidence of upper gastrointestinal cancer in China. Methods: This study was based on the National Key Research and Development Program of "National Precision Medicine Cohort of Esophageal Cancer" and "Study on Identification and Prevention of High-risk Populations of Gastrointestinal Malignancies (Esophageal cancer, Gastric cancer and Colorectal cancer)" . From January 2017 to August 2018, 212 villages or communities with a high incidence of esophageal cancer or gastric cancer were selected from 12 regions in 6 provinces. A total of 35 910 residents aged between 40 and 69 years old who met the inclusion criteria and signed the informed consent were investigated and enrolled in this study. The use of NSAIDs, demographic characteristics, health-related habits, height, weight, and blood pressure were collected by the questionnaire and physical examination. The status of main NSAIDs (aspirin, acetaminophen and ibuprofen) use with the difference varying in genders, age groups and regions were analyzed by using χ(2) test and Cochran-Armitage trend analysis method. Results: Of 35 910 subjects, the mean age was (54.6±7.1) years old and males accounted for 43.42% (15 591). The overall prevalence of NSAIDs intake was 4.56% (1 638), but it significantly varied in different provinces (P<0.001). The overall prevalence of NSAIDs intake was 4.87% (1 750) in females, which was significantly higher than that in males 4.24% (1 524) (P<0.001). The prevalence of NSAIDs intake increased with age (P for trend <0.001). As the frequency of NSAIDs intake increased, the incidence of gastrointestinal symptoms, gastrointestinal ulcers and black stools increased (P for trend <0.05 for all). Conclusion: The use of NSAIDs is prevalent in some areas with a high incidence of upper gastrointestinal cancer in China. The increased use of NSAIDs may lead to more adverse effects related to the gastrointestinal tract.

[Evaluation of vestibular evoked myogenic potential, caloric test and cochlear electrogram in the diagnosis of Meniere's disease]

Objective:The aim of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic value of vestibular-evoked myogenic potential （cVEMP and oVEMP）, caloric test, and cochlear electrogram （EcochG） in patients with Meniere's disease （MD） and non-Meniere's disease. Method:Sixty-four patients （64 ears） with Unilateral Meniere's disease were enrolled in the study group （MD group）, and 127 cases（254 ears） of non-Meniere's disease patients as non-MD group, including vertigo migraine in 40 cases, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo in 48 cases, benign recurrent vertigo in 13 cases, vestibular paroxysmia in 3 cases, vestibular neuritis in 5 cases and other undiagnosed vertigo in 18 cases. Both group undertake cVEMP, oVEMP, caloric test and ECochG. Use Medcale software to draw ROC curve of ECochG and calculate the area under curve（AUC）, Jordan index and optimal diagnostic cut-off points. Make the cut-off point as the point of -SP/AP, then evaluate the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value（PPV）, negative predictive value（NPV） and diagnostic accuracy of cVEMP, oVEMP, caloric test and ECochG in MD group and non-MD group. Result:The AUC of ECochG ROC curve was 0.74, the Jordan index was 0.47 and the cut-off point was 0.4. The sensitivity and specificity of cVEMP（62% and 68%）, oVEMP（61% and 53%） and caloric test（53% and 57%） were all below ECochG（65% and 78%）. The positive predictive value and of ECochG was the highest（61.9%）, the negative predictive value of cVEMP was highest（87.5%）. The diagnostic accuracy of ECochG was highest（74%）, followed with cVEMP（67%）, oVEMP（55%） and caloric test（56%）. Conclusion:Compared with the vestibular function tests, the sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic accuracy and NPV were all higher in ECochG, and the diagnostic benefit can be maximized when -SP/AP value>0.4. So the value of single vestibular function examination in the diagnosis of Meniere's disease is limited. The diagnosis of MD still requires a comprehensive evaluation in combination with medical history, audiological tests and vestibular function examinations.

[Piperine inhibits the transformation of endothelial cells into fibroblasts]

Objective: To investigate the role of piperine on the transformation of endothelial cells into fibroblasts. Methods: Cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs, 4-6 passage) were used for the main experiments. The transformation models of endothelial cells into fibroblasts were induced by transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) stimulation. HUVECs were divided into 6 groups: control group, TGF-β group and 4 groups treated with various concentrations of piperine (1, 5, 10, 20 μmol/L). CKK-8 was used to detect cell proliferation. The CD31/α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) expression level was detected by fluorescent staining. The vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-cadherin)/vimentin expression was detected by immunofluorescence staining. RT-PCR was used detect the mRNA expressions of transformation markers. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of snail and twist. Results: TGF-β increased HUVECs proliferation (P<0.05), which could be significantly inhibited by 10 and 20 μmol/L of piperine, but not by 1 and 5 μmol/L of piperine. Immunofluorescence results demonstrated that TGF-β increased HUVECs transformation to fibroblasts as shown by downregulated expression of endothelial markers CD31, VE-cadherin, and upregulated expression of α-SMA and vimentin, again, these effects could be attenuated by 10 and 20 μmol/L piperine. The expression levels of collagen type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ were significantly higher in TGF-β group than in control group (P<0.05), significantly lower in TGF-β+10 μmol/L piperine group and TGF-β+20 μmol/L piperine group than in TGF-β group (P<0.05).In addition, RT-PCR results showed that TGF-β increased mRNA expression of transformation markers (snail1, snail2, twist1, twist2), while 10 and 20 μmol/L of piperine could significantly downregulated the mRNA expressions of these markers. The protein expression levels of snail and twist were significantly higher in TGF-β group than in control group (both P<0.05), which was significantly lower in TGF-β+20 μmol/L piperine group than in TGF-β group (both P<0.05). Conclusions: Piperine can inhibit the transformation of endothelial cells into fibroblasts. This effect might be viewed as one of the potential mechanisms of reduced myocardial fibrosis post piperine treatment.

[Evaluation of different staging systems and prognostic analysis of 110 primary gastrointestinal diffuse large B cell lymphoma]

Objective: To compare the prognostic efficiency of Lugano staging, TNM staging and Musshoff staging systems in patients with primary gastrointestinal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(PGI-DLBCL) and investigate its clinical features and prognosis. Methods: The clinical data of 110 patients with PGI-DLBCL in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from May 2008 to August 2017 was retrospectively analyzed. The stage of lymphoma was assessed following Lugano staging, TNM staging and Musshoff staging systems respectively. The prognostic value was compared mainly according to the situation of 5-year overall survival (OS)and the influence of different clinical features on prognosis of patients was also investigated. Results: The median age of the whole study was 55(range 17-92) years old. With a median follow-up time of 36 (range 1-115) months, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 35 (range 0-86) months, and the median overall survival was 37 (range 2-104) months. The 5-year OS rate of Lugano stagingⅠ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ were 77.6%, 73.4%, 69.7%, 12.2% (χ(2)=63.395, P<0.001) respectively. The 5-year OS rate of TNM staging Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ were 77.6%, 75.9%, 25.0%, 9.3% (χ(2)=65.802, P<0.001) respectively. The 5-year OS rate of Musshoff stagingⅠ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ were 84.5%, 68.4%, 25.0%, 9.3% (χ(2)=66.966, P<0.001) respectively. By Cox multiple-factors analysis, Lugano staging system was the only independent prognosis risk factor for PFS (HR=4.987, 95%CI: 1.421-17.498, P=0.009) and OS (HR=5.659, 95%CI: 1.563-20.485, P=0.008) of PGI-DLBCL. Univariated analysis revealed that the factors affecting PFS and OS of patients with PG-DLBCL include B-symptom, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS), the number of extranodal lesions, serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), International prognostic index (IPI) score, staging and therapeutic regimen(all P values of PFS and OS<0.05). Patients with PG-DLBCL who received chemotherapy alone showed a better survival than others (PFS P=0.004; OS P<0.001); the factors affecting PFS and OS of patients with PI-DLBCL include β2-microglobulin(β2-MG), serum albumin(ALB) levels, LDH and staging (all P values of PFS and OS<0.05). Therapeutic regimen didn't affect those patients' survival (PFS P=0.661, OS P=0.720). The additional use of Rituximab failed to improve the survival of patients with PG-DLBCL and PI-DLBCL respectively (all P values of PFS and OS>0.05). Conclusions: Compared with TNM staging and Musshoff staging systems, Lugano staging system provides the best prognostic value in PFS and OS for patients with PGI-DLBCL. Accompany with B-sympto, higher ECOG PS score, more extranodal lesions, increased LDH, higher IPI score and later period are negative factors for PG-DLBCL. Increased β2-MG and LDH, lower ALB level and later period are negative factors of PI-DLBCL.

[Preliminary observation of galvanic vestibular stimulation-vestibular evoked myogenic potentials in healthy young people]

Objective: To introduce the method of galvanic vestibular stimulation-vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (GVS-VEMP) as well as to observe and analyze the parameters and elicited rate of GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP in healthy young people in China. Methods: Twenty six normal young subjects were recruited for conventional examinations of GVS-VEMP. The subjects were 21-37 years old, average age was (25.8±3.7) years old, including 13 males and 13 females. The galvanic stimulation intensity of 3 mA/1 ms was used to evoke cVEMP and oVEMP on the sternocleidomastoid and inferior extraocular muscles respectively, and the intensity of stimulus was decreased until the response disappeared, the threshold, latency, amplitude, interval phase and interaural amplitude ratio(IAR) were calculated. SPSS18.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results: All subjects were elicited normal GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP under 3 mA/1 ms, the elicited rate was 100%. The threshold of GVS-cVEMP was (1.18±0.47) mA, p1 latency was (10.43±1.54) ms, n1 latency was (17.91±1.20) ms, the amplitude was (102.47±56.77) uV and IAR was (0.26±0.20). The threshold of GVS-oVEMP was (1.12±0.50) mA, n1 latency was (8.46±1.05) ms, p1 latency was (11.83±1.27) ms, the amplitude was (9.12±6.82) uV and IAR was (0.25±0.20). In terms of gender and lateral comparison, only the GVS-oVEMP amplitude was higher for male than for female, which had significant statistical difference (P<0.05), and there was no statistical difference in the other parameters between GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP. Conclusion: GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP could be elicited in healthy youth population, and the parameters could provide reference for subsequent vestibular function evaluation.

[A comparative study of induction chemotherapy with or without autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the treatment of newly diagnosed young medium/high risk diffuse large B cell lymphoma patients]

Objective: To compare the efficacy of induction chemotherapy with or without autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) for newly diagnosed young diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients. Methods: The retrospective study was performed in 90 cases of young patients (≤60 years) with newly diagnosed DLBCL and an age-adjusted International Prognostic Index (aa-IPI) score of 2 or 3. All of them were treated with R-CHOP (32 cases, rituximab combined with CHOP), dose-intensive regimens (DA-EPOCH, Hyper CVAD/MA or ESHAP) combined with or without rituximab (25 cases), and consolidated with up-front auto-HSCT (33 cases), respectively. The efficacy and the potential predictors were evaluated. Results: ①The median age of 90 patients was 43 (18-60) years old. The median follow-up time was 42 (3-110) months. ②The 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) for R-CHOP group, dose-intensive chemotherapy group and auto-HSCT group were (33.5±10.7) %, (55.3±10.1) % and (65.8±13.6) % (P=0.012), the 5-year overall survival (OS) were (49.7±9.0) %, (61.6±10.2) % and (78.6±7.8) % (P=0.035), respectively. There was no significant difference in 5-years PFS and OS between the R-CHOP group and dose-intensive chemotherapy group (P=0.519, P=0.437) compared with that of the dose-intensive chemotherapy group, auto-HSCT group has higher 5-year PFS (P=0.042). ③ When stratified with IPI score, the high-risk group treated with auto-HSCT (26 cases) showed similar 5-years PFS and 5-years OS to those in the low-risk group with chemotherapy alone (12 cases were in R-CHOP group and 8 cases were in dose-intensive chemotherapy group) [5-years PFS were (62.3 ±14.3)%, (58.3 ±18.6)% and (51.4±18.7)%, respectively, P=0.686; 5-years OS were (69.2±13.9)%, (62.5±15.5)% and (58.3±18.6)%, respectively, P=0.592]. ④However, the high-risk group treated with auto-HSCT (26 cases) showed superior 5-years PFS (P=0.002) and 5-years OS (P=0.019) compared to the high-risk group with chemotherapy alone (20 cases were in R-CHOP group and 17 cases were in dose-intensive chemotherapy group) [5-years PFS were (62.3±14.3)%, (41.1±13.5)% and (21.9±11.6)%, respectively; 5-years OS were (69.2±13.9)%, (51.5%±14.0)% and (35.4±13.6)%, respectively]. ⑤In the univariate analysis, as a whole, patients diagnosed with GCB subtype had higher 3-years PFS (P=0.022) and 3-years OS (P=0.037) compared to non-GCB subtype patients; in subgroup analysis, patients diagnosed with GCB subtype had higher 3-years PFS and 3-years OS compared to non-GCB subtype both in R-CHOP group (P=0.030, P=0.041) and dose-intensive chemotherapy group (P=0.044, P=0.047), but not in auto-HSCT group (P=0.199, P=0.093). ⑥In the multivariate analysis, different molecular classification (GCB/non-GCB) was an independent predictor for PFS and OS both in R-CHOP group [HR=0.274 (95% CI 0.094-0.800), P=0.018; HR=0.408 (95% CI 0.164-1.015), P=0.045] and dose-intensive chemotherapy group [HR=0.423 (95% CI 0.043-1.152), P=0.048; HR=5.758 (95% CI 0.882-6.592), P=0.035]. However, there was no significant difference in PFS and OS for auto-HSCT group between GCB/non-GCB patients. Conclusion: Induction chemotherapy followed by up-front auto-HSCT has significant effect on efficacy for young and untreated patients with high risk DLBCL. Combined with induction chemotherapy followed by up-front auto-HSCT could improve the prognosis of non-GCB patients.

Objective: To retrospectively evaluate the therapeutic effect and influencing factors of the modified Karlsson operation (anchor method) in treating chronic rupture of the calcaneofibular ligament (CFL). Methods: From August 2010 to May 2014, the data of 24 patients with calcaneofibular ligament rupture treated in Institute of Sports Medicine, Third Hospital of Peking University were retrospectively analyzed. All cases were repaired with modified Karlsson operation (anchor method). There were 14 males and 10 females, with an average age of (30±9) years, and the average body mass index (BMI) was (25±5) kg/m(2). Visual analogue pain score (VAS), American Foot and Ankle Surgery Association score (AOFAS), Tegner knee motion score, ankle stability and mobility were followed up and analyzed. The paired t test was used to compare the normal distribution data before and after the operation. Results: The average follow-up time was (41±13) months. Compared with pre-operation, VAS score decreased significantly at the last follow-up [0(0,7) vs 5(0,8), Z=4.13,P=0.000], AOFAS score increased significantly (94±10 vs 70±14, t=8.94, P<0.05), Tegner score increased significantly (4.7±1.5 vs 2.8±1.3, t=6.87, P<0.05), all improved significantly. AOFAS score was excellent in 19 cases, good in 4 cases and moderate in 1 case, the excellent and good rate was 95.8%. Among them, 20 cases (83.3%) were satisfied with the recovery effect after the operation. Postoperative sprain occurred in 5 cases (20.8%) and ankle mobility was limited in 3 cases (12.5%). Conclusions: The modified Karlsson operation (anchor method) can restore the stability of the ankle joint by treating the chronic rupture of CFL. It is an effective therapy for lateral ankle instability.

[Functional vestibulo-ocular reflex test]

Summary In recent years, the diagnosis and treatment of vertigo and balance disorders have become a hot topic of multidisciplinary attention. The evaluation method of vestibular function has also been improved, providing important evidence for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of vertigo related diseases. Vestibular rehabilitation is one of the important methods for the treatment of vertigo diseases. Assessing vestibular rehabilitation status in these patients is also the key for guiding treatment. The assessment of vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) function is an important part of vestibular functional testing. Currently, the dynamic visual acuity test (DVAT), gaze stabilization test (GST), and head impulse test (HIT) can be used to evaluate the VOR function.

[Ibrutinib inhibits mesenchymal stem cells-mediated drug resistance in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma]

目的

探讨依布替尼克服弥漫大B细胞淋巴瘤（DLBCL）细胞耐药的机制。

方法

①体外实验：以DLBCL细胞系SUDHL10细胞（GCB亚型）、HBL-1（ABC亚型）以及8例DLBCL患者原代细胞为研究对象，与正常人骨髓基质细胞（MSC）共培养后，显微镜下计数向MSC趋化迁移及与MSC黏附的DLBCL细胞数，ELISA法检测MSC的CXCL12表达水平，流式细胞术检测DLBCL细胞的CXCR4表达水平；以携带有CXCR4的慢病毒转染HBL-1细胞，米托蒽醌、依布替尼处理后与MSC共培养，流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡水平；倒置显微镜下观察HBL-1细胞集落形成情况。②体内实验：以HBL-1细胞构建的NOD/SCID肿瘤模型小鼠为研究对象，观察依布替尼治疗后肿瘤体积变化。

结果

①依布替尼处理后，DLBCL细胞向MSC的迁移数和与MSC的黏附比例明显降低（P值均<0.05），并呈剂量依赖性。②与依布替尼处理前比较，处理后MSC的CXCL12表达水平降低（SUDHL10细胞：660 pg/ml对1 400 pg/ml，P=0.004；HBL-1细胞：720 pg/ml对1 490 pg/ml，P=0.018；DLBCL原代细胞：850 pg/ml对1 450 pg/ml，P=0.004），DLBCL细胞的CXCR4表达水平降低（P值均<0.05）。③共培养时，对照组、米托蒽醌组、依布替尼组、米托蒽醌组+依布替尼组的HBL-1细胞凋亡比例分别为15.1%、17.5%、23.5%、58.7%，转染过表达CXCR4后，HBL-1细胞凋亡比例分别为14.2%、16.1%、22.5%、38.3%，共培养联合用药组HBL-1细胞凋亡比例高于单药培养组，差异均有统计学意义（P值均<0.05）。④对照组、MSC组、依布替尼组、MSC组+依布替尼组集落数分别为113±5、205±4、62±9、123±3（每孔2.5×10³），模型小鼠皮下肿瘤体积分别为6 500、17 000、4 000、10 000 mm³，依布替尼处理后较处理前集落数和肿瘤体积明显减少，差异均有统计学意义（P值均<0.05）。

结论

依布替尼靶向作用于CXCL12/CXCR4轴，抑制CXCR4表达从而克服MSC介导的耐药作用，并且能够在体内外抑制MSC促淋巴瘤细胞集落形成的作用。为依布替尼治疗复发耐药DLBCL提供了理论依据。

[Expressions and prognostic significance of PTEN and PD-1 protein in patients with classical Hodgkin's lymphoma]

目的

分析肿瘤免疫耐受信号通路的重要因子PD-1和PTEN在经典型霍奇金淋巴瘤（CHL）患者中的表达及其与患者临床特征和预后的相关性。

方法

回顾性分析2003年2月至2013年8月诊治的56例CHL患者的临床资料。采用免疫组织化学染色法检测CHL患者PD-1和PTEN蛋白的表达，采用原位杂交法检测EBV及EBV编码的小mRNA（EBER），并结合患者的临床特征与生存状态进行相关性分析。

结果

①56例患者中，男34例，女22例，中位年龄25（7~71）岁，PTEN阳性者11例（19.64%），PD-1阳性者14例（25.00%）。②PTEN和PD-1表达呈正相关（rs=0.320，P=0.016）；PTEN表达与Ann Arbor分期、IPS评分和有无大包块（≥5 cm）明显相关，PD-1仅与有无大包块相关（P值均<0.05）。③中位随访43（5~86）个月，多因素分析结果显示：年龄≥45岁（P<0.001）、IPS评分>2分（P=0.026）、EBER阳性（P=0.004）、PTEN蛋白高表达（P=0.035）是影响患者5年总生存的不良预后因素，也是影响5年无进展生存的不良预后因素（P值分别为0.007、0.014、0.002、0.024）。

结论

肿瘤免疫逃逸信号通路因子PTEN与CHL患者的预后相关，对CHL患者的预后判断有一定作用，同时也为CHL的免疫治疗提供了新思路和理论依据。

[Prognostic value of (18)F-FDG PET/CT in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients]

Objective: To assess the prognostic value of (18)F-FDG PET/CT and its relationship with clinical features in newly diagnosed MM patients. Methods: A total of 123 patients with newly diagnosed MM in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from September 2008 to December 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. The overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) were estimated by Kaplan-Meier analysis and the distribution of OS and PFS were compared using log-rank test. Cox regression was used to identify the independent prognostic factors. Results: Of all 123 patients, there were 43 patients (35.0%) who had extramedullary diseases (EMD). Compared to the patients without EMD, the PFS (24.5 months vs 37.8 months, P<0.05) and OS (30.1 months vs 51.4 months, P<0.05) of the patients with EMD at diagnosed was significantly inferior. In multivariate analysis, β2-MG≥5.5 mg/L, age≥65, EMD on (18)F-FDG PET/CT and without CR at the ending of treatments were the four factors leading to poor prognosis. According to the above four factors, the patients were regrouped into low risk, medium risk and high risk groups, the significant difference existed (P<0.01) in these groups. Conclusion: (18)F-FDG PET/CT is helpful in predicting the prognosis of newly diagnosed MM patients.

[The application value of suppression head impulse paradigm in vestibular neuritis]

Objective:To study the parameters of the suppression head impulse paradigm of vestibular neuritis and explore the application value of suppression head impulse paradigm in vestibular neuritis.Method:Twenty patients with vestibular neuritis in our outpatient clinic were selected. The HIMP and SHIMP gain of unilateral vestibular neuritis patients were detected by video pulse detector.Result:All patients with HIMP examination in the affected side can elicit compensatory saccade, the healthy side with no compensatory saccade; SHIMP examination in the healthy side can elicit anti-compensatory saccade, the affected side without compensatory saccade or weak saccades. The HIMP gain of affected side and healthy side of patients with vestibular neuritis were 0.56±0.15 and 0.99±0.13 respectively, and the SHIMP gain of affected side and healthy side of patients with vestibular neuritis were 0.45±0.13 and 0.9±0.13 respectively. The gain of the affected side and the healthy side of HIMP was larger than those of SHIMP, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The differences of HIMP and SHIMP gain between the affected side and the healthy side were statistically significant (P<0.01).Conclusion:Video head impulse test combined with suppression head impulse paradigm can evaluate vestibular function injury and residual retention in vestibular neuritis, and can also dynamically monitor vestibular compensation in patients.
