    Objective To investigate the changes in plasma and skin tissue metabolomes in mice after cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL),and to find differential metabolites associated with them. Methods A total of 21 Balb/c female nude mice were randomly divided into control group and experimental group.CTCL model was induced by HH cell(T cell Lymphoma ATCC CRL-2105).Plasma and tumor tissue samples of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma mice were analyzed by untargeted metabolomics method based on GC/MS and principal component analysis was performed. Results A total of 62 differential metabolites were identified,13 of which were found in both plasma and tissue samples. Combined with our previous metabolomics studies on LC/MS-based CTCL tumor-bearing mice plasma and tumor tissue, 9 identical differential metabolisms were identified by GC/MS and LC/MS platforms. The branched-chain amino acids and glucose were increased in plasma, glycerol-3-phosphate was increased in plasma and tumor tissues,and o-phosphoethanolamine degraded by sphingosine-1-phosphate was increased in plasma. Conclusion Sixty-two differential metabolites have improved the understanding of CTCL metabolites and related pathways,which is helpful for the clinical diagnosis of CTCL.

    Objectives To compare the predicting performance on postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) between 6-minute walking distance (6MWD) and algorithm-derived cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in patients undergoing major upper abdominal surgery. Methods Patients scheduled for major upper abdominal surgery from Aug 2018 to Jul 2019 were consecutively enrolled.6MWD was performed and clinical characteristics were recorded before surgery.CRF was estimated using a formula consisting of 6MWD,age,body weight,and resting heart rate.The occurrence of PPCs after surgery was recorded.Patents were divided into PPCs group and non-PPCs group according to whether clinically significant PPCs occurred.The independent risk factors of PPCs were analyzed using multiple Logistic regression.The sensitivity,specificity and cut-off point of 6MWD and algorithm-derived CRF to predict PPCs were analyzed.Area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) between 6MWD and algorithm-derived CRF was compared using Z test. Results One hundred and sixty one patients undergoing major upper abdominal surgery were enrolled. PPCs occurred in 35 patients (21.7%). 6MWD in PPCs patients was (346.7±109.0) m,which was significantly lower than that in non-PPCs patients of (439.9±68.3) m (P<0.001).CRF in PPCs group was (8.0±1.3) MET,which was significantly lower than that in non-PPCs group of (10.1±1.2) MET (P<0.001).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that 6MWD,age,resting heart rate and body mass index (BMI) were independent risk factors for PPCs. 6MWD ≤ 389 m was cut-off point for predicting PPCs with sensitivity of 68.6% and specificity of 81.0%.CRF ≤ 9.27 MET was cut-off point for predicting PPCs with sensitivity of 91.4% and specificity of 76.2%.The AUC of CRF to predict PPCs was significantly bigger than that of 6MWD (Z=2.624,P=0.009). Conclusion Algorithm-derived CRF is better than 6MWD alone in predicting PPCs in patients undergoing major upper abdominal surgery.Algorithm-derived CRF is an effective tool to screen patients with high risk for PPCs after major upper abdominal surgery.

    Objective To overview the systematic review(SR) of efficacy and safety of oral hypoglycemic agents (OHA) for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods The Cochrane Library,The Joanna Briggs Institute Library,EMBASE,PubMed,CBM,CNKI,WANFANG,VIP database were electronically searched to collect SR and meta-analysis on OHA of GDM from inception to Nov 2018. Two reviewers independently screened literature, then AMSTAR tool was used to assess the methodological quality of included studies. Data extracted were used to perform meta-analysis through RevMan 5 software. The GRADE tool was used to grade the evidence quality of outcome measures included in the SRs. Results A total of 13 relevant SRs were included,involving 31 RCTs. The assessment results of AMSTAR toolsuggested that:the quality of systematic reviews included need to be improved. Main outcome of meta-analysis:Metformin is better than insulin in postprandial blood glucose control and the incidence of Pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH),weight gain after randomization, gestational age was lower in the metformin group. At the same time,the neonatal birth weight in the metformin group was lower. It can also significantly reduce several adverse neonatal outcomes including incidence of large for gestational age (LGA),hypoglycemia and neonatal intensive care admission. Glyburide is comparable with insulin in glycemic control and maternal outcomes.However, it may increase birth weight,and increase incidence of macrosomia and hypoglycemia.GRADE results showed:among 38 outcomes,2 outcomes were of high quality, 13 outcomes were of moderate quality, 14 outcomes were of low quality and 9 outcomes were of very low quality.And the main downgrading factors were the limitations and imprecision of the study. Conclusion The current overview shows that OHAs (metformin or glyburide) is comparable with insulin in general glycemic control, furthermore, metformin is even more effective than insulin in postprandial glucose control.There is barely data on the long-term effects of OHAs (metformin or glyburide)on maternal outcomes and neonatal outcomes.

    Objective To study the expression pattern of G3BP1 (Ras-GTPase-activating protein SH3 domain binding protein 1) in cervical cancer tissues and explore its clinical significance. Methods We analyzed the difference in G3BP1 mRNA expression between cervical cancer and adjacent non-tumor tissues using public GEO datasets.We also constructed tissue microarray (TMA) containing 306 cervical cancer tissues,and detected the expression of G3BP1 protein with immunohistochemistry (IHC).Statistical analysis was employed to compare the expression of G3BP1 between cervical cancer and normal as well as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia,and to analyze the correlation of G3BP1 expression with clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of patients. Results In GSE6791,GSE7803 and GSE7410 datasets,we found that the G3BP1 mRNA expression was higher in cervical cancer than that in adjacent non-tumor tissues.IHC assay indicated that G3BP1 protein expression was gradually increased along with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and tumorigenesis.Chi-square test analysis revealed that high G3BP1 expression was associated with elder age,larger tumor size,poorer differentiation,myometrial infiltration,vaginal infiltration,pelvic lymph node metastasis,and late FIGO stage,and predicted poor outcome of cervical cancer patients. Multivariate analysis identified G3BP1 as an independent prognostic factor,which could improve the predictive accuracy for the overall survival when incorporated into FIGO staging system. Conclusion G3BP1 was proposed as a novel independent prognostic factor,and might be involved in the carcinogenesis and development of cervical cancer.

    Objective To evaluate the expression of gonadotropin releasing hormone receptor (GnRH-R) in breast cancer and to analyze its significance with clinical-pathological characteristics and survival outcomes. Methods Tissue microarrays were comprised of 656 cases of early invasive breast cancer tissue diagnosed between 2013 and 2018 together with 131 cases of paracancerous tissue. The expression of GnRH-R was evaluated by immunohistochemistry. The independent related factor with high expression of GnRH-R was evaluated by multiple Logistic regressions. The disease-free survival (DFS) outcomes between patients with high or low expression of GnRH-R were compared by means of Kaplan-Meier methods and Log-Rank test. Results The high expression rate of GnRH-R was significantly higher in tumor tissue than in paracancerous tissue (54.0% vs. 28.2%,P<0.001),and was also significantly higher in estrogen receptor (ER) negative breast cancer than in ER positive breast cancer (65.3% vs. 48.0%,P<0.001). According to multiple Logistic regressions,lower N stage,negative lymphovascular invasion (LVI) and higher Ki-67 level were independent related factors with high expression of GnRH-R. Although there was no significant difference in DFS between patients with high and low expression of GnRH-R (Log Rank P=0.132) as a whole,cases with high expression of GnRH-R had significantly improved DFS compared with those with low expression of GnRH-R (Log Rank P=0.023) among ER negative patients. Conclusion GnRH-R might be a potential treating target for breast cancer,especially for hormone receptor negative breast cancer.

    Objective To investigate the effect of different neuromuscular blockade depth on surgical conditions,perioperative lung oxygenation function and perioperative lung injury. Methods Seventy-six patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer were randomly distributed into deep (A) or moderate neuromuscular block group (B) by a computer software,with 38 patients for each group. Neuromuscular function was measured with an acceleromyograph method and quantitative neuromuscular transmission monitored with a TOF-Watch SX system.Neuromuscular situation of patients in group A (1-2 post-tetanic count) and group B (1-2 train-of-four response) were maintained by a 0.6 mg/kg titration dose of rocuronium followed by routine laparoscopic surgery. Propofol target control (Ce 2.5 μg/mL) compounding with remifentanil (0.2 μg·kg-1·min-1),sufentanil (0.3-0.4 μg/kg) and rocuronium (0.6 mg/kg) infusion was employed for general anesthesia.The intraoperative narcotrend index was 27-46.At the end of the operation,patients of the two groups were intravenously injected with sugammadex.Outcomes such as surgical condition,adjusted mean intra-abdominal pressure (IAP),parameters of cardiovascular system,oxygenation index (OI),dynamic lung compliance (Cdyn),pain score,gas passing time,postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) and 30-day unplanned readmission were recorded and compared between the two groups. Results Compared with group B combined with sugammadex,group A combined with sugammadex showed a better surgical condition (P<0.01),a lower intra-abdominal pressure (P<0.01),shorter postoperative gas passing time (P<0.05),lower postoperative abdominal pain scores (P<0.05),increased perioperative OI (P<0.05) and intraoperative Cdyn (P<0.05) as well as decreased incidence rate of PPCs (P<0.05).Outcomes of PACU time,postoperative hospital stay,30-day unplanned readmission showed no statistical meaning between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions This study provided a clinical evidence for worth considering of deep NMB for patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal surgery,and showing outcomes including better surgical condition and pulmonary oxygenation function,lower PPCs as well as lower IAP,less severe postoperative pain and faster bowel function recovery.

    Objective To analyze the value of ultrasound in the diagnosis of primary renal lymphoma (PRL). Methods Ultrasound findings,classifications and diagnosis of 16 PRL in 15 patients were retrospectively summarized.All cases confirmed with pathology after surgery or ultrasound-guided biopsy. Results Fifteen patients were 13 males and 2 females, with age ranged from 35 to 81(62.1±14.2)years old. Fourteen patients were unilateral,and one was bilateral. The ultrasonographic appearance of PRL included 7 cases of intrarenal type, 1 case of diffuse type, 4 cases of perirenal type and 4 cases of mixed type, respectively.The maximum diameters of PRL lesions ranged from 41-164 mm.The diagnosis of ultrasound was as follows:10 cases of malignant tumors (7 lesions in 6 cases with diagnosis of lymphoma),3 undetermined cases, 1 case of perirenal hemorrhage, and 1 case of hamartoma hemorrhage.The diagnosis and misdiagnosis rate were 43.8%(7/16)and 12.5%(2/16),respectively. The pathology was derived from surgery and biopsy in 5 and 12 cases,respectively. The final diagnosis was 9 diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL), 1 peripheral T-cell lymphoma, 1 mucosa-associated lymphoma, 1 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma NKT cell type, and 1 Burkitt's lymphoma.The other 2 cases were only diagnosed as lymphoma without further classification. Conclusions The ultrasound manifestations of PRL included intrarenal type, perirenal type, diffuse type and mixed type.The perirenal and diffuse types are specific for PRL.The intrarenal type should be distinguished from other renal solid lesions with ultrasound-guided biopsy preferred for preoperative diagnosis.

    Objective To assess the ability of a continuous non-invasive arterial pressure (CNAP) monitoring system to reduce intra-anesthetic hemodynamic fluctuation during caesarean section compared with non-invasive intermittent arterial pressure (NIAP) measurement. Methods Fourty healthy women scheduled for planned cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia were recruited for this study.They were divided into two groups:continuous non-invasive arterial pressure device (Group CS,n=20) and intermittent oscillometric arterial pressure measurement (Group N,n=20),by using a computer-generated random number table.Blood pressure (BP) management was performed using the same protocol,with BP measured by intermittent BP cuff (i.e.,NIAP measurement) in Group N or by CNAP monitoring in Group CS.We assessed the accuracy and precision of the CNAP and NIAP measurement using Bland-Altman.Additionally,the time of hypotension after spinal anesthesia,the incidence of hypotension and the duration of hemodynamic stability were recorded. Results From 2 270 arterial pressure readings,biases (SD) for NIAP-CNAP for systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and mean blood pressure(MBP) for all patients were(-4±14 mmHg),(-9±14 mmHg) and (-6±13 mmHg),respectively.Severe hypertension occurred less frequently in Group CS than in Group N after spinal anesthesia (11.1% vs.28.9%,P=0.035).The duration of hemodynamic stability (systolic BP 80%-110% of baseline) intraoperatively was longer in the Group CS than in the Group N (93.5% vs.83.7%,P=0.01). Conclusion CNAP monitoring may improve hemodynamic stability in the parturients during spinal anaesthesia compared with NIAP measurement.

    Objective To examine the value of estimated 24-hour urinary sodium natriuresis (e24UNa) by morning urine in cardiovascular risk assessment. Methods This study has enrolled 4 035 elderly volunteers from a local community in Shanghai.We collected morning urine and fasting serum samples from volunteers with basic epidemiological data for sodium analysis,and Kawasaki formula was used to calculate the e24UNa.The correlation between e24UNa and other cardiovascular disease related factors were analyzed.Meanwhile,10-year Framingham risk score was used for category and the e24UNa of different risk level has been studied. Results The mean e24UNa of subjects was 9879 mg/d. In the 3 groups with different e24Una values (high: ≤ 10 636 mg/d,medium:10 636~12 699 mg/d,low: ≥ 12 699 mg/d),there were statistically significant differences in the following indicators (P<0.05):male ratio of 31.74%, 47.87% and 59.78%; waist circumference of (85.66±10.07),(88.13±9.23) and (90.14±9.40) cm;hip circumference of (95.57±7.33),(97.41±7.09) and (98.72±6.69) cm, body mass index of (24.38±3.46),(25.25±3.34) and (25.73±3.30) kg/m2,smoking rate of 4.75%,8.09% and 8.31%;fasting blood glucose of (5.60±1.67),(5.62±1.50) and (5.78±1.68) mmol/L,cholesterol of (5.53±1.17),(5.37±1.22) and (5.34±1.18) mmol/L and sex hormone binding globulin of (71.06±34.98),(62.55±29.92) and (59.95±27.55) nmol/L.The e24UNa level increased[(9 239.87±2 140.720),(9 622.46±2 193.57),(9 878.15±2 217.14) and (10 322.30±2 365.33) mg/d] with the Framingham risk score (<10%,10-20%,20-30% and >30%)(P<0.001). Conclusion The e24UNa calculated by morning urine is more convinient as a laboratory biomarker for the guide of dietary sodium limit in preventing the cardiovascular disease events.

    Objective To translate Parent Attitudes about Childhood Vaccines (PACV) into Chinese,and measure its reliability and validity. Methods The PACV scale was translated according to the transcultural adaptation guidelines. After the pre-test was completed with the translated questionnaire,148 parents of children aged 6 years and younger were investigated. Results The content validity index of the 15-item scale was 1.0.Factor analysis showed that Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) Measure of Sampling Adequacy was 0.702 (P<0.01).Three factors were extracted from the principal component analysis (PCA).The cumulative variance explained was 56.1%.The results were same with the original scale on general attitudes,faith in vaccine's safety and efficacy,and immunization behavior. The total Cronbach's α value of the scale was 0.701,and the reliability of the subscales of "General attitudes","Safety and efficacy" and "Behavior" were 0.810,0.704 and 0.604 respectively.After two weeks,the total retest reliability scale was 0.753, and the subscales were 0.798,0.714 and 0.701 respectively. Conclusion The Chinese version of PACV has good reliability and validity,which can be used to evaluate parents' attitude towards vaccination.However,multi-center and large sample studies are still needed to verify this version.

    Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene (KRAS) mutation is one of the most common carcinogenic factors in a variety of tumors,which leads to the continuous activation of KRAS,while it in turn promotes cell proliferation and drives tumorigenesis.Although the exploration of targeted drugs targeting KRAS gene mutations has been a hot research topic for decades,it has not yet been developed to discover clinically effective drugs for KRAS gene mutations.Currently,the mechanisms of targeted therapy for KRAS gene mutation are mainly inhibiting the mutated KRAS genes directly,changing the KRAS membrane localization,inhibiting KRAS signaling pathways,and inhibiting KRAS mutant synergistic lethal genes.Here,we briefly review the progress of pharmacological strategies targeting KRAS mutated cancers.

    In the case of minor injury and minor injury criticality,since there is no sufficient evidence to prove that the injury is more serious, the principle of minor(no)injury until proved major injury is followed to appraise the degree of injury.This was a case of suspected pneumothorax(hemopneumothorax)caused by sharp instrument.Because there was no sufficient evidence to prove pneumothorax(hemopneumothorax)or penetrating wound in thoracic wall, or to deny the clinical history of no penetrating wound in thoracic wall. Due to the principle of minor injury until proved major injury and the mild injury consequences, this case was appraised as mildly minor injury.
