ABSTRACT
Objective@#To analyze the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of Notch signaling pathway and susceptibility to lung cancer.@*Methods@#The present study was a hospital-based case-control study. All 1 121 patients of lung cancer diagnosed by histopathology three hospitals in Fujian and Nanjing were selected as cases from January 2006 to December 2012. At the same time, 1 121 healthy population from other departments of the hospital to visit patients or community, excluding those with tumor, chronic disease, and immediate family members of lung cancer, were enrolled in control group. A uniform questionnaire was used to collect general information. Matrix-assisted laster desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) was used to identify the polymorphisms of 9 SNP (Notch3 rs3815188, Notch4 rs915894, Notch4 rs520692, DLL1 rs1033583, JAG1 rs8708, JAG2 rs9972231, HEY1 rs1046472, HEY2 rs3734637, HES2 rs11364) in 1 121 lung cancer patients and 1 121 healthy controls. The association between SNP and lung cancer was analyzed by χ2 and logistic regression model.@*Results@#The average age of cases and controls was (58.70±10.73) and (58.98±10.85) years old. The OR for genotype AC carriers of HEY1 rs1046472 was 0.80 (95%CI: 0.66-0.97) when comparing with genotype CC. The OR for genotype AC+AA carriers of HEY1 rs1046472 was 0.81 (95% CI: 0.67-0.98) when comparing with genotype CC. The OR for genotype AC carriers of HEY2 rs3734637 was 0.82 (95%CI: 0.67-0.99) when comparing with genotype AA. In the stratified analysis, Notch3 rs3815188, DLL1 rs1033583, JAG1 rs8708, JAG2 rs9972231, HEY1 rs1046472, HEY2 rs3734637, HES2 rs11364 were associatied with the risk of lung cancer, P were 0.041, 0.030, 0.043, 0.003, 0.004, 0.026 and 0.038, respectively.The interactions analysis done by logistic regression model showed JAG1 rs8708 and family history, JAG2 rs9972231 and BMI had interaction in the study, OR were 2.07 (95% CI:1.21-3.52) and 1.73 (95% CI:1.21-2.47), respectively.@*Conclusion@#Notch3 rs3815188, DLL1 rs1033583, JAG1 rs8708, JAG2 rs9972231, HEY1 rs1046472, HEY2 rs3734637 and HES2 rs11364 were significantly associated with susceptibility to lung cancer.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the effect of gender on the prognosis of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods Data of 1 195 patients with NSCLC were analyzed by Chi-square,Kaplan-Meier,log-rank tests and Cox regression models.Results Women had a longer survival than men (median overall survival 31.64 versus 22.71 months,P＜0.01) in the participants of this study.Differences seen in overall survival remained the similar,after stratified by age,pathologic types,clinical stage,sizes,pleural effusion and surgery of the patients,respectively.Data from the multivariate analysis revealed that factors as smoking,clinical stage,metastatic when diagnosis was made and surgery,but not gender,were independent prognostic factors for patients with NSCLC.After adjustment for potential confounders,we found that smoking was a major confounding factor,affecting the relationship between gender and prognosis of NSCLC.Conclusion Gender did not seem an independent prognostic factor for NSCLC patients while the survival advantages of females might be attributed to the lower prevalence of smoking in this population.

ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the predictive value of heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (HFABP) in predicting the cardiovascular events after none-cardiac thoracic surgery in aged patients.Methods Sixty eight aged patients were admitted from February 2012 to August 2014 and accepted none-cardiac thoracic surgery.The patients'general information and the incidence of postoperational cardiovascular events were recorded.Serum H-FABP was measured.The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was constructed and the predictive effect of serum H-FABP for prognosis was analyzed.Results Eighteen patients were suffered from postoperative cardiovascular events (PCE).The level of H-FABP after surgery in patients with PCE was higher than that with none-PCE (P ＜ 0.05).The serum concentration of H-FABP after surgery and NT-proBNP before surgery was the independent risk factors for the elderly patients undergoing non-cardiac thoracic surgery.The area under ROC of H-FABP was 0.840 (95％ CI:0.716 ～0.964,P ＜0.01).The sensitivity and specificity of predicting postoperational cardiovascular event with serum concentration of H-FABP ＞5.26μg/L was 77.8％ and 84.0％ (OR 15.944,95％ CI:4.239 ～59.978,P ＜0.01).Conclusions The level of H-FABP after surgery is an independent risk factor for the occurrence of PCE for the elderly patients undergoing non-cardiac thoracic surgery.It can predict the risk of PCE after non-cardiac thoracic surgery in aged patients.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the interaction on smoking and the lung cancer related genes miR-196a2 rs11614913, miR-146a rs2910164, miR-300 rs12894467, miR-26a-1 rs7372209, miR-27a rs895819 in Fujian Han population.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From January 2006 to January 2012, by using a hospital-based case-control study, 1 053 cases were pathologically diagnosed as primary lung cancer from the Department of Thoracic Surgery and 1 058 controls were randomly selected from the visiting relatives of patients and visiting people of Cangxia community health service of Fuzhou city according to match with age and genders. They were recruited for questionnaires survey and genotyping detection. Research objects of genders, height, weight, cultural degree, marital status, family history of cancer, lung disease history, smoking, drinking tea, drinking, and so on. After informed consent, we collected 5 ml fasting venous blood from every object, used MALDI-TOF-MS to analysis genotyping of polymorphic loci. Logistic regression model was constructed by using SNP as independent variable, and the multiple factors were constructed with different loci. The possible association between SNP and cigarette smoking was analyzed by using the crossover analysis. The relative excess risk of interaction (RERI) were used to analyze on smoking and SNP loci additive interaction of dominant and recessive genetic models.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Smokers in case group who smoked P50(P25-P75)30.00 (0.00-56.00) packages in a year were higher than control group (0.00(0.00 - 20.48) pack years) (Z=14.57,P<0.001). Passive smoking index for non-smokers was 11.40(0.00-25.00), higher than the controls (0.00(0.00-13.11)) (Z=10.71,P<0.001). Site detection rate of rs11614913, rs2910164, rs12894467, rs7372209 and rs895819 in cases was 95.82%(1 009/1 053), 97.72%(1 029/1 053), 97.82% (1 030/1 053), 97.15% (1 023/1 053) and 96.01% (1 011/1 053) respectively. The controls were 98.11% (1 038/1 058), 98.96% (1 047/1 058), 98.30% (1 040/1 058), 98.68% (1 044/1 058) and 98.02% (1 037/1 058) respectively. rs11614913 dominant genetic model, TT genotype and smoking could increase the risk of primary lung cancer (OR=4.04, 95%CI: 2.67 -6.12). Recessive genetic model, CC genotype and smoking increased the incidence of primary lung cancer risk (OR=4.76, 95%CI: 3.16 -7.17). rs12894467 dominant genetic model, TT genotype and smoking could increase the risk (OR=2.98, 95%CI: 2.28 -3.90) in primary lung cancer. In recessive genetic model, CC genotype and smoking increased the incidence of primary lung cancer risk (OR=1.94, 95% CI: 1.10-3.43). Dominant genetic model of rs2910164, CC genotype and smoking could increase the risk (OR=2.18, 95% CI: 1.60 -2.98) in primary lung cancer. Recessive genetic model, GG genotype and smoking increased the incidence of primary lung cancer risk (OR=3.29, 95% CI: 2.16 -5.03). Especially rs12894467 dominant and recessive gene model and genders, smoking and there were combined effects(χ(2)=8.58, P=0.003; χ(2)=4.76, P=0.040).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Rs11614913, rs12894467 and rs2910164 polymorphism were potentially associated with primary lung cancer in Fujian Han population.</p>
