Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical resection remains the primary treatment for hepatic malignancies, and intraoperative bleeding is associated with a significantly increased risk of death. Therefore, accurate prediction of intraoperative bleeding risk in patients with hepatic malignancies is essential to preventing bleeding in advance and providing safer and more effective treatment. AIM To develop a predictive model for intraoperative bleeding in primary hepatic malignancy patients for improving surgical planning and outcomes. METHODS The retrospective analysis enrolled patients diagnosed with primary hepatic malignancies who underwent surgery at the Hepatobiliary Surgery Department of the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University between 2010 and 2020. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify potential risk factors for intraoperative bleeding. A prediction model was developed using Python programming language, and its accuracy was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS Among 406 primary liver cancer patients, 16.0% (65/406) suffered massive intraoperative bleeding. Logistic regression analysis identified four variables as associated with intraoperative bleeding in these patients: ascites [odds ratio (OR): 22.839; P < 0.05], history of alcohol consumption (OR: 2.950; P < 0.015), TNM staging (OR: 2.441; P < 0.001), and albumin-bilirubin score (OR: 2.361; P < 0.001). These variables were used to construct the prediction model. The 406 patients were randomly assigned to a training set (70%) and a prediction set (30%). The area under the ROC curve values for the model's ability to predict intraoperative bleeding were 0.844 in the training set and 0.80 in the prediction set. CONCLUSION The developed and validated model predicts significant intraoperative blood loss in primary hepatic malignancies using four preoperative clinical factors by considering four preoperative clinical factors: ascites, history of alcohol consumption, TNM staging, and albumin-bilirubin score. Consequently, this model holds promise for enhancing individualised surgical planning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS In recent years, more and more inflammatory indicators have been studied to predict the long-term survival of patients with ampullary carcinoma (AC) after radical resection, but these prognostic indicators are still controversial. Therefore, based on previous inflammation scores, this study established a novel, easily accessible, more feasible and more predictive prognostic marker [Carbohydrate antigen199 to gamma-glutamyltransferase ratio (CA19-9/GGT)] to better assess the prognostic significance in AC patients undergoing radical resection. METHODS Overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) were analyzed by Cox regression model. Correlation between CA19-9/GGT and clinicopathological variables were analyzed by Chi-squared test, Fisher ' s exact test, independent sample t test and Mann-Whitney U test. The performance of prognostic indexes is compared by the consistency index (C-index). The prediction accuracy of nomogram is further confirmed by calibration curve and decision curve analysis (DCA). RESULTS CA19-9/GGT was an independent risk factor affecting OS [P = 0.001, hazard ratio (HR) 2.459, 95% confidence intervals (CI) 1.450-4.167] and RFS (P = 0.002, HR 2.333, 95% CI 1.371-3.971) in multivariate analysis. The optimal cut-off value of CA19-9/GGT was 0.14. In CA19-9/GGT correlation analysis, high risk group (> 0.14) was significantly associated with poor prognosis. The predictive performance of CA19-9/GGT (OS: C-index = 0.753, RFS: C-index = 0.745) was confirmed to be superior to other prognostic indicators according to the C-index. Compared with the simple AJCC staging system, the Nomogram prediction model (OS: C-index = 0.787, RFS: C-index = 0.795) established by the combination of CA19-9/GGT and AJCC 8th TNM staging system has higher prediction accuracy. CONCLUSIONS CA19-9/GGT was an independent prognostic indicator after radical resection of AC. Incorporating CA19-9/GGT into the AJCC TNM staging system optimized the prediction accuracy of the TNM staging system, and further verified the predictive value of CA19-9/GGT.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect and underlying mechanism of paeoniflorin on hippocampal neuron apoptosis induced by lead acetate. Methods: In September 2020, primary hippocampal neuronal cells were isolated and cultured from fetal rats, and identified using cellular immunofluorescent. MTT assay was used to measure the cell viability to determine the concentration and time of lead acetate-induced hippocampal neuron apoptosis. MTT was also used to evaluate the effect of paeoniflorin concentration on the apoptosis of hippocampal neurons induced by lead acetate. According to the results, different concentrations of paeoniflorin were selected to intervene hippocampal neuron cells, after 24 h, lead acetate was added to the cells, meanwhile, blank and model groups were set up, the content of reactive oxygen species (ROS) , superoxide dismutase (SOD) , lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) , malondialdehyde (MDA) and Caspase-3 were measured. Extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) , phosphorylated ERK (p-ERK) , p38 mitogen -activated protein kinases (p38MAPK) , phosphorylated p38MAPK (p-p38MAPK) , c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and phosphorylated JNK (p-JNK) protein expression in hippocampal neuronal cells were determined by Western blotting. Results: The isolated and cultured hippocampal neurons were identified by immunofluorescence chemical staining and then treated with lead acetate, MTT results showed that lead acetate had the best toxicity effect when treated for 24 h at a concentration of 25 μmol/L. Paeoniflorin showed no cytotoxic effect on hippocampal neuronal cells when the concentrations below 80 μmol/L. Compared with the model group, the activity of hippocampal neuronal cells was significantly increased after treating with 20, 40 or 80 μmol/L paeoniflorin (P<0.05) . Compared with the blank group, the ROS activity, LDH release level, MDA content and caspase-3 content were significantly increased (P<0.01) , and the SOD activity was significantly decreased (P< 0.01) in the hippocampal neuronal cells of the model group. Compared with the model group, the ROS activity, LDH release level, MDA content and caspase-3 content were obviously decreased (P<0.05) , SOD activity was significantly increased (P <0.01) after hippocampal neuronal cells were treated with 40 or 80 μmol/L paeoniflorin. Relative to the model group, the ratio of p-ERK/ERK were significantly up-regulated (P<0.01) , while the ratios of p-p38MAPK/p38MAPK and p-JNK/JNK were significantly down-regulated after hippocampal neuronal cells were treated with 40 or 80 μmol/L paeoniflorin (P<0.05) . Conclusion: Paeoniflorin may down-regulate the expression of p-p38MAPK and p-JNK protein, up-regulate the expression of p-ERK protein, and inhibit the apoptosis of hippocampal neurons induced by lead acetate through the MAPK signaling pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Female breast cancer is the most common cancer nowadays, and its treatment has a significant impact on patients both physically and psychologically. Many randomized trials have proved that case management (CM) can effectively care for patients. However, there is a lack of systematic scientific evaluation, so this systematic evaluation aims to explore the impact of CM on breast cancer patients. METHODS PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Scopus, CINAHL were searched. Chinese repositories included China National Knowledge, Infrastructure Database (CNKI), Wan fang Database, China Biology Medicine Database. We will also search unpublished literature at ClinicalTrials.gov. Randomized controlled trials were collected from them. The literature will be screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, and 2 researchers will extract the literature independently. The primary outcome indicator for this study will be patient satisfaction. Statistics were performed using RevMan 5.4 software. The quality of each outcome will be evaluated using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation. RESULTS This study will provide the most recent evidence for evaluating the impact of CM on breast cancer patients. CONCLUSION To evaluate the impact of CM on patients with breast cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Symptomatic multiple brain metastases with peritumoral brain edema (PTBE) occur in non-small cell lung cancer patients (NSCLC) who are without driver mutations or are resistant to epidermal growth factor tyrosine kinase (EGFR-TKI) are often associated with an unfavorable prognosis. Whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT) which comes with many complications and unsatisfactory effects, is the only option for the treatment. Previous studies have shown that bevacizumab can reduce the volume of PTBE and improve efficiency of radiotherapy. This study evaluated the effects and safety of apatinib combined with WBRT in NSCLC patients with symptomatic multiple brain metastases and PTBE. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of 34 patients with symptomatic multiple brain metastases from NSCLC (number >4, and at least 1 measurable brain metastasis lesion with cerebral edema). Intracranial objective response rate (IORR), peritumoral edema and intracranial tumor volumetric measurement, Karnofsky performance status (KPS) and adverse events (AEs) were evaluated. Median intracranial progression-free survival (mIPFS) and median overall survival (mOS) were also analyzed. RESULTS Thirteen cases received apatinib (125 mg or 250 mg, QD, oral) combined with WBRT and 21 cases received chemotherapy combined with WBRT were inclued. Apatinib combination group can better reduce the volume of intracranial tumors and PTBE and total steroid dosage used. It was associated with a better IORR (84.6% vs 47.6%, P = 0.067), longer mIPFS (6.97 vs 4.77months; P = 0.014). There was no significant difference in mOS(7.70 vs 6.67 months; P = 0.14) between the 2 groups. The most common adverse events of apatinib combination WBRT included grade 1/2 nausea (4/13), fatigue (3/13), hypertension (2/13) and white blood cell decrease (2/13). No grade 3/4 AEs were observed. CONCLUSION Apatinib plus WBRT is well tolerated and may be a potential choice for relapsed or drug-resistant advanced NSCLC patients with symptomatic multiple brain metastases and PTBE.

Abstract
Hand-foot syndrome (HFS) is a specific cutaneous toxicity caused by a variety of antitumor drugs. The most common drugs include capecitabine, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin and fluorouracil (PLD), tyrosine kinase inhibitor. It is a dose-limiting cutaneous toxicity of these drugs. We reported an advanced lung adenocarcinoma female patient, who developed a Grade 3 HFS after a third-line treatment with apatinib of 250 mg for 10 days, the patient developed intolerable pain with pruritus. Large erythema on the skin of the hand, with local ulceratio, exudation, and desquamation of cutaneous lesions. After treatment with 100 mg of thalidomide every night for 1 week, the patient's HFS was significantly relieved, and the duration of the remission was about 2 months, which not only significantly improved the patient's quality of life, but also maintained the antitumor strength.

Abstract
Background The purpose of the current study was to evaluate whether radiation dose‐volume metrics to technetium‐99m (99mTc) sulfur colloid single‐photon emission tomography (SPET)‐defined active bone marrow (ABM) subregions can more accurately predict acute hematologic toxicity in locally advanced cervical cancer patients who receive chemoradiotherapy than conventional dosimetric parameters. Methods and materials Thirty‐nine patients with stage IB2‐III cervical cancer who underwent 99mTc sulfur colloid SPET imaging before treatment with cisplatin‐based chemoradiation between January 2017 and March 2018 were analyzed. The total bone marrow (TBM) volume was defined as the external contours of all bones within the vertebral bodies from L4 to the coccyx, the pelvic bones, and the proximal femoral heads. The ABM volume was defined by SPET as the subregion of TBM with a nuclide uptake value greater than or equal to the mean total body nuclide uptake value. Student's t test was used to test for statistical significance between TBM and ABM dose‐volume metrics. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to compare the predictors of grade 3 or higher (grade 3+) hematologic toxicity. Results The mean ABM‐V40 (23.22% ± 7.65%) and ABM‐V30 (45.28% ± 9.20%) were significantly lower than the mean TBM‐V40 (33.06% ± 6.72%) and TBM‐V30 (53.08% ± 7.77%), respectively (t = 5.78, P = .001) (t = 4.13, P = .001). The ABM volume (<387.5 cm3, AUC = 0.928, P = .001), ABM‐V30 (>46.5%, AUC = 0.875, P = .001), and ABM‐V40 (>23.5%, AUC = 0.858, P = .001) can predict the occurrence of grade 3+ hematologic toxicity. Among patients with an ABM volume < 387.5 cm3, 16/19 (84.2%) had grade 3+ hematologic toxicity compared to 3/20 (15%) with an ABM volume > 387.5 cm3. Conclusions The ABM volume (<387.5 cm3) may be a better predictor of hematologic toxicity than conventional dose‐volume metrics, but this finding needs to be further evaluated.

Abstract
RATIONALE The potential efficacy of apatinib in patients with advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has been observed in a previous phase II clinical study. However, there is no study to evaluate its efficacy and safety in TNBC patients with brain metastasis (BM). Here we report one case that apatinib exhibited excellent antitumor effects in a breast cancer patient with brain metastasis, with no serious treatment-associated with adverse event. PATIENT CONCERNS In this case report, one Chinese woman who was diagnosed with stage IV TNBC with multiple bone, lung, and brain metastases was unable to tolerate chemotherapy and refused whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT) due to her poor physical condition. She had previously undergone radical mastectomy and intravenous chemotherapy. DIAGNOSES Triple-negative breast cancer. INTERVENTIONS The patient underwent left radical mastectomy with ipsilateral axillary lymph node dissection, and the following adjuvant chemotherapy, but developed multiple bone, lung, and brain metastases. Due to her poor physical condition, chemotherapy was not eligible for her. And she refused WBRT and chose to take low-dose apatinib (250 mg, oral, daily) monotherapy. OUTCOMES After 2 months of treatment, the symptom of headache and vomiting relieved and all the brain metastases (BMs) lesions disappeared. LESSONS Low-dose apatinib monotherapy may be an alternative treatment for patients with poor physical condition. Preclinical and clinical studies should be conducted to further evaluate the mechanism and efficacy of apatinib in the treatment of BM from TNBC, as well as to explore the optimal dose of the drug.

Objective: To observe the expression of alpha smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and high mo-bility group protein B1 (HMGB1) in silicosis model rats interfered by lumbricus. Methods: 45 rats were ran-domly divided into the control group, model group and group interfered by lumbricus. The silicosis model rats were established. The group interfered by lumbricus were intragastric administered with lumbricus decoction by the 4 ml/kg dose. The control group and model group were ig administered with the equal amount of normal saline. Each group were killed 5 rats on the 7(th), 14(th) and 28(th) day. The lung tissues were stained with HE and Sirius red methods. The mRNA expressions of α-SMA and HMGB1 were determined with RT-PCR; The pro-tein levels of α-SMA and HMGB1 were determined with Western blotting. Results: Compared with the control group, the expression levels of α-SMA and HMGB1mRNA and protein in lung tissue of model group were grad-ually increased in the 7(th), 14(th) and 28(th) days, the difference was statistically significant (P< 0.01) . Compared with model group, the levels of α-SMA and HMGB1mRNA and protein in lung tissue of group interfered by lumbricus were gradually lowered in the 7th, 14th and 28th days, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05, P<0.01) . Conclusion: Lumbricus inhibits the collagen deposition and the formation of silicosis pulmo-nary fibrosis, which may be related to the inhibition of HMGB1 expression and activation of α-SMA in lung tis-sue.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the mechanism of CD34+ progenitor cell differentiation in rat by observing the change relations between the eosinophils (EOS) and the content of Eotaxin and IL-5 in blood and the CD34+/CCR3+, CD34+/IL-5Rα+ in bone marrow after occupational asthma (OA) model rats are simulated, and to observe the effect of WTKYD Trraitional Chinese Medicine intervention. Methods: A total of 40 healthy male SD model rats (200~250 g weight) were randomly divided into model contrast Group, prednisone acetate intervention Group, WTKYD+1/2 prednisone acetate intervention Group and WTKYD intervention Group, 10 in each group, and set a Group for blank contrast. Give them saline (20 ml/kg) , prednisone acetate (8.22 mg/kg) , WTKYD (20g/kg) +1/2 prednisone acetate (4.11 mg/kg) and WTKYD (20 g/kg) intervention respectively. By means of cell count, immunohistochemical, ELISA, flow cytometry technique, situ hybridization and so on, to observe EOS and the expression of Eotaxin in lung tissue, the EOS in peripheral blood, the content of Eotaxin and IL-5 in blood as well as the expression of CD34+/CCR3+ and CD34+/IL-5Ra+ in bone marrow respectively. Results: The number of EOS, the content of Eotaxin and IL-5, the expression of CD34+/CCR3+ and CD34+/IL-5Ra+ in Model Contrast Group were higher in Blank Contrast Group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01) , while they were lower in medical intervention Groups when comparing to Model Contrast Group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01 or P<0.05) , and the above items in WTKYD+1/2 Prednisone Acetate Intervention Group were even lower than in Prednisone Acetate Intervention Group and WTKYD Intervention Group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). EOS in lung tissue is highly positive related to the content of Eotaxin and IL-5 in peripheral blood as well as the expression of CD34+/CCR3 and CD34+/IL-5Rα in bone marrow (0.9666、0.9829、0.9142, 0.8874). Conclusion: The increase of internal EOS in lung tissue is related to the up-regulated expression of CD34+/CCR3+ and CD34+/IL-5Ra+ in bone marrow after antigens in Occupational Asthma model rats are stimulated. Through down-regulating it's expression to restrain the differentiation of CD34+ progenitor cells towards EOS, meanwhile, the collaboration of WTKYD and prednisone acetate possess a certain synergistic action.

Abstract
Evidence indicates that type 2 diabetes may stimulate the initiation and progression of several types of cancer. Metformin, a drug most commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes, may inhibit cancer cell growth and reduce the risk of cancer. However, evidence of the antitumor effects of metformin on ovarian cancer is still limited.In this study, we retrospectively examined the effects of metformin on ovarian cancer patients with diabetes at our institution.We identified 568 consecutive patients who were newly diagnosed with ovarian cancer and treated between January 2011 and March 2014. Patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage I to IV epithelial ovarian, fallopian, or peritoneal cancer were included. Patients with type 1 diabetes, incomplete records (including medication records) and any other cancer before their ovarian cancer diagnosis, as well as those diagnosed with diabetes more than 6 months after their ovarian cancer diagnosis, were excluded. Out of 568 patients, 48 (8.5%) patients with type 2 diabetes continuously used metformin, 34 (5.9%) patients with type 2 diabetes did not take metformin, 22 (3.9%) patients with type 2 diabetes discontinued metformin, and 464 (81.7%) ovarian cancer patients were nondiabetic controls. Longer progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were observed in ovarian cancer patients with diabetes who were taking metformin than in diabetic patients not taking metformin, diabetic patients who discontinued metformin, and nondiabetic ovarian cancer patients (P = .001). After adjusting for possible confounders, metformin use was associated with a lower risk for disease relapse [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.34; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.27-0.67; P < .01] and disease-related death (HR = 0.29; 95% CI: 0.13-0.58, P = .03) among ovarian cancer patients with diabetes.Metformin use may decrease the risk for disease recurrence and death in patients with ovarian cancer, but the drug treatment must be continuous.

Abstract
Inhibitors of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), including tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), present significant clinical benefits in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), particularly in patients with an EGFR mutation. However, TKI treatment also results in unwanted cutaneous toxic side effects, such as a skin rash. Eyelash trichomegaly is rarely reported as a side effect; however, it causes cosmetic issues or eyeball irritation in patients, which may result in the early termination of TKI treatment. Therefore, although TKI-induced eyelash trichomegaly is rare, it should be considered carefully by lung cancer physicians. The present study reported a case of erlotinib-induced eyelash trichomegaly in a 65-year-old Chinese female patient suffering from NSCLC with an EGFR mutation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of erlotinib-induced trichomegaly in a Chinese patient.

Abstract
215 cases of diffuse pulmonary disease diagnosed with transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) via bronchofibroscope were reported. The incidence of successful biopsy was 96.7%. The total diagnostic rate was 80.5%. There were no other serious complications except for bloody or blood-streaking sputum, but the amount rarely exceeded 50 ml, and pneumothorax occurred occasionally. It was suggested that TBLB is an easy, safe and useful method for diagnosing diffuse pulmonary disease.

Abstract
Ultrathin bronchofiberscope (Olympus BF-1.8T) was applied to the observation of the peripheral airways of total 87 cases, including 73 cases of quartz-exposed and asbestos-exposed workers with/without pneumoconiosis (exposure groups), and 14 cases of controls. The changes of peripheral airways in exposure group of non-smokers was found, mainly to be pigmentation, elevation, irregularity and lustlessness on the surface of the bronchiole walls, and predominantly stenosis and ectasis of the lumen. The detectable rate was higher in peripheral airways than in central airways. Some changes existed in early stage and some had a tendency of increasing detectable rate with category progressing. Some factors such as smoking could influence the results of analysis.

Abstract
Twenty-two patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) from 10 families were studied with special attention to their clinical findings, HLA-B27 examinations and family histories. Results showed that HLA-B27 was positive in 19 and negative in 3. The hereditary relationship between ankylosing spondylitis and HLA-B27 in Chinese was similar to that in westerners. We consider that subjective symptoms and clinical findings are essential to early diagnosis of AS, but HLA-B27 examination and family history are supportive.
