    Abstract: Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between lifestyle habits and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among different ages who were initially diagnosed with breast cancer (within the first 2 weeks) and to determine the contribution of lifestyle habits factors on HRQoL. Methods: Patients with breast cancer were recruited from 22 hospitals in 11 provinces or municipalities in northern and eastern China. The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast Cancer (FACT-B) was used to measure HRQoL. Chi-square test, ANOVA, and multivariable generalized linear models were conducted to identify the differences in HRQoL between two age groups (age & lt;50 years and ≥50 years) and to evaluate the contribution of lifestyle habits factors on HRQoL of patients with breast cancer. Results: About 1,199 eligible patients with breast cancer were used for analysis. Younger women (aged & lt;50 years) appeared to show lower scores than older women (aged ≥50 years) in HRQoL subscales, including emotional well-being ( p = 0.003), functional well-being ( p = 0.006), breast cancer subscale ( p = 0.038), and FACT-B Total scores ( p = 0.028). Tea and alcohol consumption and being very satisfied with sleep and current life were the strongest predictors of higher HRQoL in younger group. Meanwhile, no coffee consumption, frequent participation in physical activities, high sleep satisfaction, and current life satisfaction were the key predictors of higher HRQoL in older women with breast cancer. Conclusion: The relationship of the nine lifestyle habit items with HRQoL differed among younger and older women. The associated variable of low HRQoL can help clinicians take intervention early in order to improve the prognosis of patients with breast cancer.

    Abstract: Purpose. A prospective controlled study was designed to observe the pharmacodynamics of rocuronium in cholestatic patients with or without hepatocellular injury. Methods. Sixty patients undergoing abdominal surgery were allocated into three groups: group I had 20 cholestatic patients with hepatocellular injury; group II had 20 cholestatic patients without hepatocellular injury, and group III (control group) had 20 patients without hepatic disease. Anesthetized with propofol and fentanyl, all patients received rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg for initial dose followed by intermittent repeated administration of rocuronium 0.15 mg/kg. The twitch high of adductor pollicis muscle was monitored by acceleromyography. The onset time of the initial dose, the duration time of the initial and the repeated doses, and the recovery index were observed. Results. The onset and the duration time of the initial dose had no significant difference among the three groups (P 〉 0.05). After administration of the 5th dose, the duration time of the repeated doses was significantly prolonged than that of the 2nd dose in group I (31±8 versus 22±4 min) and group II (28±5 versus 21±4 min) (P0.05). The recovery index of rocuronium was longer in group I (48±13 min) and group II (46±9 min) than that in group III (24±5 min) (P

    Abstract: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is refractory and heterogeneous, comprising various entities with divergent phenotype, biology, and clinical presentation. As an aggressive subtype, Chinese TNBC patients with special morphologic patterns (STs) were restricted to its incidence of 10-15% in total TNBC population. Methods We recruited 89 patients with TNBC at Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital (GDPH) from October 2014 to May 2021, comprising 72 cases of invasive ductal carcinoma of no-special type (NSTs) and 17 cases of STs. The clinical data of these patients was collected and statistically analyzed. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissues and matched blood samples were collected for targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) with cancer-related, 520- or 33-gene assay. Immunohistochemical analysis of FFPE tissue sections was performed using anti-programmed cell death-ligand 1(PD-L1) and anti-androgen receptor antibodies. Results Cases with NSTs presented with higher histologic grade and Ki-67 index rate than ST patients (NSTs to STs: grade I/II/III 1.4%, 16.7%,81.9% vs 0%, 29.4%, 58.8%; p & lt;0.05; Ki-67 ≥30%: 83.3% vs. 58.8%, p & lt;0.05), while androgen receptor (AR) and PD-L1 positive (combined positive score≥10) rates were lower than of STs cases (AR: 11.1% vs. 47.1%; PD-L1: 9.6% vs. 33.3%, p & lt;0.05). The most commonly altered genes were TP53 (88.7%), PIK3CA (26.8%), MYC (18.3%) in NSTs, and TP53 (68.8%), PIK3CA (50%), JAK3 (18.8%), KMT2C (18.8%) in STs respectively. Compared with NSTs, PIK3CA and TP53 mutation frequency showed difference in STs (47.1% vs 19.4%, p=0.039; 64.7% vs 87.5%, p=0.035). Conclusions In TNBC patients with STs, decrease in histologic grade and ki-67 index, as well as increase in PD-L1 and AR expression were observed when compared to those with NSTs, suggesting that TNBC patients with STs may better benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitors and/or AR inhibitors. Additionally, lower TP53 and higher PIK3CA mutation rates were also found in STs patients, providing genetic evidence for deciphering at least partly potential mechanism of action.

    Abstract: Sesame ( Sesamum indicum L.) has always been known as a health-promoting oilseed crop because of its nutrient-rich oil. In recent years, studies have focused on lipid and fatty acid (FA) biosynthesis in various plants by high-throughput sequencing. Here, we integrated transcriptomics, small RNAs, and the degradome to establish a comprehensive reserve intensive on key regulatory micro RNA (miRNA)-targeting circuits to better understand the transcriptional and translational regulation of the oil biosynthesis mechanism in sesame seed development. Deep sequencing was performed to differentially express 220 miRNAs, including 65 novel miRNAs, in different developmental periods of seeds. GO and integrated KEGG analysis revealed 32 pairs of miRNA targets with negatively correlated expression profiles, of which 12 miRNA-target pairs were further confirmed by RT-PCR. In addition, a regulatory co-expression network was constructed based on the differentially expressed gene (DEG) profiles. The FAD2 , LOC10515945 , LOC105161564 , and LOC105162196 genes were clustered into groups that regulate the accumulation of unsaturated fatty acid (UFA) biosynthesis. The results provide a unique advanced molecular platform for the study of lipid and FA biosynthesis, and this study may serve as a new theoretical reference to obtain increased levels of UFA from higher-quality sesame seed cultivars and other plants.

    Abstract: To characterize the PET-MRI co-registration of hypometabolic patterns in focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) types I and II and provide some suggestions in presurgical evaluation of epilepsy surgery. Methods We retrospectively analyzed PET-MRI co-registration imaging data from a cohort of 83 epilepsy patients with histologically confirmed FCD types I and II. Hypometabolic patterns were classified into 4 types: bottom of sulcus hypometabolism (BOSH), single island of sulcus hypometabolism (SIOS), single gyrus or sulcus hypometabolism (SGOS), and multiple gyri and sulci hypometabolism (MGOS). Results Most of cases that were overlooked by conventional MRI and PET evaluation but positive in PET-MRI co-registration were focalized lesions in dorsolateral frontal lobe (9/15) and FCD type IIa was the most prevalent pathological type (11/15). The FCD histological types ( p = 0.027) and locations ( p & lt; 0.001) were independent predictors of PET-MRI co-registration hypometabolic patterns. Focalized hypometabolic patterns (BOSH, SIOS, SGOS) were primarily observed in the frontal lobe (33/39) and FCD type II (43/62) and extensive pattern (MGOS) in temporal lobe (18/20) and FCD type I (16/21; p & lt; 0.005). Conclusion PET-MRI co-registration enhanced the detection of FCD type IIa compared with conventional MRI and PET reading. The hypometabolic patterns of FCD type I and temporal lobe FCD were more extensive than those of FCD type II and frontal lobe FCD, respectively. The predilection of focalized hypometabolic patterns in frontal lobe FCD suggested that subtle lesions should be checked carefully in patients with suspected frontal lobe epilepsy.

    Abstract: Background: Biopsies play an important role in the diagnosis of intracranial lesions, and robot-assisted procedures are increasingly common in neurosurgery centers. This research investigates the diagnoses, complications, and technology yield of 700 robotic frameless intracranial stereotactic biopsies conducted with the Remebot system. Method: This research considered 700 robotic biopsies performed between 2016 and 2020 by surgeons from the Department of Functional Neurosurgery in Beijing's Tiantan Hospital. The data collected included histological diagnoses, postoperative complications, operation times, and the accuracy of robotic manipulation. Results: Among the 700 surgeries, the positive rate of the biopsies was 98.2%. The most common histological diagnoses were gliomas, which accounted for 62.7% of cases (439/700), followed by lymphoma and germinoma, which accounted for 18.7% (131/700) and 7.6% (53/700). Bleeding was found in 14 patients (2%) by post-operation computed tomography scans. A total of 29 (4.14%) patients had clinical impairments after the operation, and 9 (1.29%) experienced epilepsy during the operation. The post-biopsy mortality rate was 0.43%. Operation time—from marking the cranial point to suturing the skin—was 16.78 ± 3.31 min (range 12–26 min). The target error was 1.13 ± 0.30 mm, and the entry point error was 0.99 ± 0.24 mm. Conclusion: A robot-assisted frameless intracranial stereotactic biopsy guided by a videometric tracker is an efficient, safe, and accurate method for biopsies.

    Abstract: Aim: The 20(S)-ginsenoside Rh2 (Rh2) is being developed as a new antitumor drug. However, to date, little is known about the kinetics of its deglycosylation metabolite (protopanoxadiol) (PPD) following Rh2 administration. The aim of this work was to 1) simultaneously characterise the pharmacokinetics of Rh2 and PPD following intravenous and oral Rh2 administration, 2) develop and validate a mechanism-based pharmacokinetic model to describe the deglycosylation kinetics and 3) predict the percentage of Rh2 entering the systemic circulation in PPD form. Methods: Plasma samples were collected from rats after the I.V. or P.O. administration of Rh2. The plasma Rh2 and PPD concentrations were determined using HPLC-MS. The transformation from Rh2 to PPD, its absorption, and elimination were integrated into the mechanism based pharmacokinetic model to describe the pharmacokinetics of Rh2 and PPD simultaneously at 10 mg/kg. The concentration data collected following a 20 mg/kg dose of Rh2 was used for model validation. Results: Following Rh2 administration, PPD exhibited high exposure and atypical double peaks. The model described the abnormal kinetics well and was further validated using external data. A total of 11% of the administered Rh2 was predicted to be transformed into PPD and enter the systemic circulation after I.V. administration, and a total of 20% of Rh2 was predicted to be absorbed into the systemic circulation in PPD form after P.O. administration of Rh2. Conclusion: The developed model provides a useful tool to quantitatively study the deglycosylation kinetics of Rh2 and thus, provides a valuable resource for future pharmacokinetic studies of glycosides with similar deglycosylation metabolism.

    Abstract: This study aimed to provide a realistic observation of survival by major site for 48,866 cancer patients treated at a tertiary cancer hospital in a rural area of China. Methods Patients with cancer registered between 2007 and 2017 in the Nantong rural area were followed up. The starting date for survival calculation was the date of the first diagnosis of cancer at the Nantong Tumor Hospital, and the closing date was December 31, 2020. Observed survival (OS) was analyzed according to ICD-10 site, sex, age, region, and hospitalization period using the life table method and compared using the Wilcoxon (Gehan) statistic. Results The overall 5-year OS rate was 40.48% for all 48,866 patients, 30.19% for males, and 51.90% for females. The top five cancer sites, accounting for 60.51% of the total cases, were the esophagus, lung, stomach, liver, and cervix, with 5-year OS rates of 33.72%, 18.64%, 32.10%, 19.04%, and 71.51%, respectively. The highest 5-year OS was observed in the thyroid (87.52%) and the lowest was in the pancreas (6.37%). Survival was significantly higher in younger patients than in older patients, with 5-year OSs of 69.26% and 19.84% in those aged 20-29 and 90-99 years, respectively. Five-year OSs improved significantly from 39.35% in 2007-2011 to 41.26% in 2012-2017. Conclusion Overall survival improved over the years, although the improvement at some sites was not significant. The observed survival varies from region to region, reflecting differences in the patterns of major sites, disparities in proportions of hospitalization, and demographic characteristics.
