    Abstract: Background . To evaluate the clinical and prognostic value of PET/CT with combination of 68 Ga-DOTATATE and 18 F-FDG in gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NENs). Method . 83 patients of GEP-NENs who underwent 68 Ga-DOTATATE and 18 F-FDG PET/CT were enrolled between June 2013 and December 2016. Well-differentiated (WD) NETs are divided into group A (Ki-67 〈 10%) and group B (Ki-67 ≥ 10%), and poorly differentiated (PD) NECs are defined as group C. The relationship between PET/CT results and clinicopathological characteristics was retrospectively investigated. Result . For groups A/B/C, the sensitivities of 68 Ga-DOTATATE and 18 F-FDG were 78.8%/83.3%/37.5% and 52.0%/72.2%/100.0%. A negative correlation between Ki-67 and S U V m a x of 68 Ga-DOTATATE ( R = −0.415; P ≤ 0.001) was observed, while a positive correlation was noted between Ki-67 and S U V m a x of 18 F-FDG ( R = 0.683; P ≤ 0.001). 62.5% (5/8) of patients showed significantly more lesions in the bone if 68 Ga-DOTATATE was used, and 22.7% (5/22) of patients showed more lymph node metastases if 18 F-FDG was used. Conclusions . The sensitivity of dual tracers was correlated with cell differentiation, and a correlation between Ki-67 and both S U V m a x of PET-CTs could be observed. 68 Ga-DOTATATE is suggested for WD-NET and 18 F-FDG is probably suitable for patients with Ki-67 ≥ 10%.

    Abstract: Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) has been classified separately as an independent risk factor for hypertension. However, comparisons between different body size indices and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in hypertensive populations have not been reported yet. In this study, we enrolled 4,639 hypertensive patients from rural China. Anthropometric indices and cardiovascular disease risk factor variables were measured and analyzed using Spearman’s correlation, logistic regression, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses. Patients in the highest quartile of body size indices were more likely to have left ventricular hypertrophy than those in the lowest quartile; these indices were BMI (adjusted OR: 3.55, 95% CI: 2.90; 4.35), WC (adjusted OR: 2.23, 95% CI: 1.84; 2.70), WHR (adjusted OR: 1.44, 95% CI: 1.18; 1.75), and WHtR (adjusted OR: 3.23, 95% CI: 2.62; 3.99). The areas under the ROC curves of BMI (AUC: 0.628, 95% CI: 0.612; 0.644), WHtR (AUC: 0.628, 95% CI: 0.560; 0.593), WHR (AUC: 0.530, 95% CI: 0.513; 0.547), and WC (AUC: 0.576, 95% CI: 0.513; 0.547) were all above 0.5, which indicated that the four anthropometric indicators may be associated with LVH. The four anthropometric indicators of obesity were identified as risk factors for LVH. Weight control might help reduce the risk of left ventricular hypertrophy.

    Abstract: Purpose . To investigate the association between ABO blood types and clinicopathological characteristics in patients with prostate cancer (PC). Methods . A total of 237 pathologically diagnosed PC patients were enrolled. All patients were classified as low–middle or high-risk group. The correlation of ABO blood types with high-risk PC was determined by univariate and multivariate regression analysis. Results . Data indicated 144 (85.7%) patients were stratified as high risk in the non-O group, while 50 (72.5%) patients in the O group ( p = 0.025 ). However, there was no significant difference regarding PSA, Gleason score, stage, or metastasis between O and non-O group ( p 〉 0.05 ). Univariate logistic regression analyses revealed PSA, Gleason score, and blood type non-O were all correlated with high-risk PC (OR = 1.139, p 〈 0.001 ; OR = 9.465, p 〈 0.001 ; OR = 2.280, p = 0.018 , resp.). In the stepwise multivariate regression analysis, the association between blood type non-O and high-risk PC remained significant (OR = 33.066, 95% CI 2.391–457.323, and p = 0.009 ) after adjusting for confounding factors as well as PSA and Gleason score. Conclusion . The present study firstly demonstrated that non-O blood type was at higher risk of aggressive PC compared with O type, suggesting that PC patients with non-O blood type should receive more attention in clinical practice.

    Abstract: In this study, pulping conditions for kraft pulping of bamboo residues were investigated, predominantly focusing on cooking temperature and time during pulping. Oxalic acid and cationic starch were used for the modification of natural stellerite, and the use of modified stellerite for preparing filter paper for PM 2.5 filtration was investigated. The optimal pulping technology of bamboo residues was established based on the following experimental parameters: liquor ratio of 1 : 5.5, cooking temperature of 160°C, and a holding time of 2 h. Modification by oxalic acid resulted in the promotion of pore formation at the stellerite surfaces and induced the microscopic changes. Nevertheless, paper strength remained practically unchanged after the addition of fillers, indicating that the cationic starch preblend method is a promising technique for papermaking because it enhances the strength properties of paper. With the variation in the addition of modified stellerite from 3 to 15%, while simultaneously maintaining the basis weight constant at 60 gm −2 , the filtration efficiency of paper sheets first increased and then decreased later; thus the optimum stellerite content was found to be 9%. Filtration efficiency was suggested to be affected by gas flowing velocity.

    Abstract: Objective. To explore the anthropometric indicators suitable for screening for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in the elderly population. Methods. This cross-sectional study screened subjects over 65 years, who had undergone a physical examination in 2019. Their height, weight, waist circumference, and fasting blood glucose and triglyceride levels were measured. Body mass index (BMI), waist circumstance (WC), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), relative fat mass (RFM), ponderal index (PI), conicity index (CI), lipid accumulation product (LAP), and body shape index (ABSI) were calculated. Statistical analyses were performed using the Chi-square test, logistic regression, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Subjects. Of a total of 4985 subjects, 1173 diagnosed with NAFLD and 3812 without NAFLD were included. Results. The NAFLD group had increased BMI, WC, WHtR, RFM, PI, CI, and LAP. ABSI was only significantly different in males between the groups. Logistic regression analysis showed that RFM was an effective prognostic factor for males with NAFLD, and LAP, BMI, and WC were effective prognostic factors for females. ROC curve analysis showed that LAP played a significant role in the prediction of NAFLD. Conclusion. LAP is closely related to the occurrence of NAFLD and could be an efficient screening and treatment tool for NAFLD in the elderly people. Lay Summary. We conducted a screening and study of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in the elderly population by determining the association between obesity indexes and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. We found that LAP is practical, easy-to-measure tool for screening and studying NAFLD in the high-risk community elderly population, making it a valuable indicator in research.
