RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the tumor perfusion enhancement induced by low intensity ultrasound stimulated microbubble cavitation (USMC) combined with programmed cell death-Ligand 1(PD-L1) antibody on improving the immune microenvironment of solid tumors.Methods:Tumor-bearing mice were divided into 4 groups: Control ( n=26) group, USMC ( n=27) group, anti-PD-L1 ( n=27) group and USMC+ anti-PD-L1 ( n=27) group. USMC treatment was performed with a VINNO 70 ultrasound theranostics system. Tumor perfusion was evaluated by contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). The anti-tumor efficacy was assessed by the tumor growth curve and the survival time of mice. The number and function of CD8 + T cells, the differentiation of CD4 + T cells, the proportion of MDSC and the phenotype distribution of TAM in tumors were analyzed by flow cytometry. The content of CXCL9, CXCL10 and HIF-1α in tumor were detected by ELISA. The expression of VEGF in tumor tissues was analyzed by immunofluorescence. Results:CEUS showed that the values of PI and AUC of tumors were significantly increased after USMC compared with before USMC (all P<0.05). USMC combined with anti-PD-L1 therapy did suppress the tumor progression. FCM showed the number, the expression of proliferation antigen Ki67, the secretion of IFN-γ and Granzyme B of CD8 + T cells in tumors were higher in combined group than those in other three groups after therapy (all P<0.05). Meantime, the proportion of Th1 was rose while Tregs and MDSC were declined and the polarization of TAM was toward M1 type by combined therapy. ELISA analysis showed that the combined therapy also increased the concentration of CXCL9, CXCL10 and decreased the content of HIF-1α in tumors (all P<0.05). Meanwhile, the immunofluorescence expression of VEGF was significantly lower in combined group than that in the control group after treatment ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Tumor perfusion enhancement by USMC combined with PD-L1 antibody therapy could improve tumor immune microenvironment and USMC might be a novel effective method for potentiating PD-L1 antibody immunotherapy.
RESUMO
Objective:To determine the predictive value of atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) on the long-term prognosis of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).Methods:A total of 2 500 patients with coronary heart disease who underwent coronary angiography in Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from May 2013 to November 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the AIP value, the subjects were divided into low AIP group (AIP<0.06) and high AIP group (AIP≥0.06). The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) was compared between the two groups. Kaplan-meier method was used to evaluate the MACE-free survival rate, and multivariate Cox survival analysis was used to evaluate the independent predictors of MACE.Results:A total of 2 427 patients were followed up, with a follow-up rate of 97.08% and a median follow-up time of 4.29 years. There were 1 123 cases in the low AIP group and 1 304 cases in the high AIP group, among which 624 patients (25.7%) had MACE. The total incidence of MACE in the high AIP group was higher than that in the low AIP group ( HR=1.43, 95% CI: 1.22-1.68, P<0.01). Kaplan-meier curves showed that the MACE-free survival rate was significantly lower in the high AIP group ( P<0.01). After adjusting for multiple confounding factors, AIP was still associated with the prognosis of CHD patients. Increased AIP (≥0.06) was an independent predictor of MACE in CHD patients within 4 years ( HR=1.34, 95% CI: 1.14-1.58, P<0.01). Conclusions:AIP (≥0.06) was an independent predictor of MACE occurrence in patients with CAD within 4 years. AIP has a certain value in the long-term prognosis of patients with CAD.
RESUMO
Objective:Using lasso regression analysis to screen out the blood lipid indexes closely related to coronary heart diseaseMethods:The clinical data of 3 062 patients with coronary heart disease who were hospitalized in the Department of Cardiology, Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College from May 2013 to November 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.They were divided into control group ( n=2 427) and coronary angiography group ( n=635). R language was used for statistical analysis.Multiple logistic regression models were established for indicators of blood lipid related to CAD, and their multicollinearity severity was assessed.LASSO regression was used to screen out the representative lipid parameters in the CAD prediction model. Results:A total of 3 062 patients were enrolled, including 2 427 patients in coronary heart disease group and 635 patients in control group.The inclusion of lipid parameters into multiple logistic regression model leads to serious multicollinearity.Stepwise regression can only partially reduce multicollinearity severity, while LASSO regression model significantly reduces multicollinearity severity.Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) were found to be the representative lipid indexes for predicting coronary heart disease by LASSO regression analysis.Conclusion:LASSO regression has advantages in processing multicollinearity data.LASSO regression showed that LDL-C, HDL-C and non-HDL-C were representative lipid indicators for predicting coronary heart disease..
RESUMO
AIM: To investigate the inhibitory effect of Yiqi Huoxue decoction on the malignant biological behavior of lung cancer cells and its mechanism. METHODS: Human lung cancer A549 cells were treated with different doses of Yiqi Huoxue Decoction serum (5%, 10%, 15%). CCK-8 assay, transwell chamber experiment, flow cytometry, Western blot and qRT-PCR method were used to study the effect of different doses of Yiqi Huoxue Decoction-containing serum to cell proliferation, cell migration and invasion, cell apoptosis, PTEN protein and miR-21 expression. RESULTS:Compared with the drug-free serum group, survival rate, migration and invasion ability of A549 cells decreased after treatment with different doses of drug-containing serum. The apoptosis rate of A549 cells increased, PTEN mRNA and the expression of its protein increased, the expression of miR-21 decreased, and the medium-dose (10%) drug-containing serum group had the best effect. After the transfection of miR-21 mimics, miR-21 expression was up-regulated, while PTEN protein expression was down-regulated in cells. PTEN protein expression was up-regulated after treatment with medium-dose (10%) drug-containing serum. CONCLUSION: Yiqi Huoxue Decoction can effectively inhibit the malignant cell biological behavior of human lung cancer A549 cells and may be related to the regulation of the miR-21/PTEN signaling pathway.

RESUMO
Objective: To compare the efifcacy and safety of sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) and everolimus-eluting stent (EES) for treating the patients with non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS). Methods: A total of 400 NSTE-ACS patients treated in Jining Medical College Hospital from 2013-09 to 2014-09 were studied. According to different stents, the patients were divided into 2 groups: SES group,n=220 and EES group,n=180. A prospective follow-up study was conducted for 1.5 years to compare the incidence rate of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). The patients were further stratiifed by GRACE scores as Low risk group (score140). MACE free survival was studied by Kaplan-Meier curve and analyzed by Long-rank test, predictive value of GRACE for 1.5 year MACE incidence rate was examined. Results: There were 355/400 (89%) patients completed (16.7 ± 5.7) months of follow-up study including 205 in SES group and 150 in EES group. MACE occurrence rates were similar between SES group and EES group (16.10% vs 18.0%), P>0.05. By GRACE score stratiifcation, MACE rates in High risk SES group were higher than High risk EES group (48.00%vs 16.00%),P0.05. ROC curve indicated that the predictive value of GRACE score for 1.5 year MACE incidence was for AUC=0.762, 95% CI (1.026-1.050),P<0.001. Conclusion: Implanting of EES would be more beneifcial for NSTE-ACS patients with high GRACE risk; GRACE score has the better predictive value for their long-term prognosis.
RESUMO
Objective: To clarify the predictive value for long-term prognosis of GRACE score and SYNTAX score in patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS). Methods: A total of 784 NSTE-ACS patients treated in our hospital from 2009-01 to 2014-01 were retrospectively studied. According to the treatment, the patients were divided into 3 groups: Medication group,n=410, Stent group,n=325 and CABG group,n=49. Based on 2 scoring systems, the patients were divided into another 3 groups: Low risk group, Medium risk group and High-risk group. The relationship between GRACE score and SYNTAX score was studied by Pearson correlation analysis, survival analysis was conducted by Kaplan-Meier method, univariate and multivariate analysis were performed by Cox proportional hazard model, and the area under curve (AUC) of ROC analysis was used to compare two methods. Results: All 784 patients completed the follow-up study at the median of 47.7 months. Pearson correlation analysis showed that there was a weak positive correlation between GRACE score and SYNTAX score (r=0.40,P0.05. Cox proportional hazard model and ROC analysis indicated that GRACE and SYNTAX scores had the important predictive value for lone term prognosis of NSTE-ACS. ROC analysis of GRACE score, SYNTAX score, the combination of GRACE and SYNTAX scores showed that 3 of them all had good predictive value for MACE occurrence, three of 95% CI had signiifcant overlapping without statistic differences. Conclusion: GRACE score and SYNTAX score are related, both of them have important while similar predictive value for long term prognosis in NSTE-ACS patients, the combination of 2 scores cannot increase the predictive value. GRACE score is appropriate for the risk stratiifcation in NSTE-ACS patients.

RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) in conjunction with hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for treating patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods:A total of 62 CRC patients with complication of PC were divided into the CRS group, namely, Group One (n=29, CRS and systemic adju-vant chemotherapy) and the CRS+HIPEC group, namely, Group Two (n=33, CRS+HIPEC). The primary end point of the study was overall survival (OS) and the secondary end point was serious adverse events (SAE). Results:Patients' clinicopathologic characteris-tics, peritoneal carcinomatosis index, and completeness of cytoreduction therapy were well balanced and comparable between the two groups. The median follow-up was 41.9 mo (6.5 mo to 110.0 mo) in Group One and 32.0 mo (10.5 mo to 95.9 mo) in Group Two. The median OS was 8.5 mo (95%CI:4.9 mo to 12.1 mo) in Group One and 14.5 mo (95%CI:11.9 mo to 17.1 mo) in Group Two (P=0.007). Within 30 days after the surgery, SAE occurred in 3 of the 29 patients in Group One, and 9 of the 33 patients in Group Two (P=0.126). Multivariate analysis revealed that HIPEC, CC0-1 score, and chemotherapy over six cycles were the independent factors for OS improvement. Conclusion:The CRS+HIPEC method improves the OS of patients with PC from CRC, suggesting an acceptable safety.
