Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features and treatment strategies of pituicytoma. Methods: Twenty-one cases of pituicytoma were collected at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University and Jinling Hospital, Nanjing, China from 2009 to 2020. The clinical data of 21 pituicytoma patients was retrospectively analyzed, and the relevant literature was reviewed. Results: Twenty-one patients aged 4 to 68 years, including 8 males and 13 females. All patients underwent surgical treatment. Histologically, the tumor was consisted almost entirely of elongate, bipolar spindle cells arranged in a fascicular or storiform pattern. Mitotic figures were rare. Immunohistochemically, tumor cells were diffusely positive for S-100 protein (21/21), vimentin (15/15) and TTF1 (14/14), while they were weakly or focally positive for GFAP (13/16) and EMA (6/12). CKpan was negative in all cases and Ki-67 proliferation index was low (<5%). Among the 18 patients with follow-up, all survived and 2 relapsed after surgery. Conclusions: Pituicytoma is a rare low-grade glioma of the sellar area. It is easily confused with other sellar tumors. Preoperative diagnosis is difficult. It needs to be confirmed by histopathology and immunohistochemistry. Microsurgery is the main treatment method at present.

Objective: To explore the impacts of miR-18a overexpression or depression on the radiosensitivities of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line CNE1 and CNE2 and underlying mechanisms. Methods: CNE1 and CNE2 were transfected with miR-18a mimics, inhibitor and the corresponding control vectors. qRT-PCR and western blot were used to determine the ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) expressions in CNE1 and CNE2. CNE1 and CNE2 with stably expressing miR-18a and miR-18a siRNA were constructed. Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was used to detect the impacts of the miR-18a overexpression or depression combined with irradiation on the cell growth. Flow cytometry was used to detect the cell apoptosis and cell cycle. Colony formation assay was used to evaluate the raodiosensitivities of cells. Acridine orange (AO) staining and western blot were used respectively to test the autophagy and the expressions of related proteins. Independent samples t test was used to compare the mean value between groups by using SPSS 16.0. Results: ATM mRNA was decreased significantly in CNE1 and CNE2 cells transfected with 100 or 200 nmol/L miR-18a mimics for 48 hours (CNE1: RQ=0.174±0.139 and 0.003±0.001, t=9.939 and 19 470.783;CNE2: RQ=0.024±0.008 and 0.019±0.012, t=270.230 and 137.746, respectively, all P<0.001). ATM proteins were also decreased after transfected with 100 or 200 nmol/L miR-18a mimics for 72 hours. While in the cells transfected with 100 and 200 nmol/L miR-18a inhibitor for 48 hours, the expressions of ATM mRNA were upregulated significantly (CNE1: RQ=9.419±2.495 and 2.500±1.063, t=-4.427 and -41.241; CNE2: RQ=7.210±0.171 and 115.875±15.805, t=-62.789 and -12.589, all P<0.05), and the expressions of ATM proteins increased after transfected for 72 hours. The growth of cells with miR-18a overexpression plus 4 Gy irradiation were obviously inhibited compared to that of cells with the 4Gy irradiation alone; while the growth of miR-18a-inhibited cells increased compared to that of cells with 4 Gy irradiation alone (all P<0.05). CNE1 transfected with 100 nmol/L miR-18a mimics plus 4 Gy irradiation showed the higher apoptosis rate than the cells with 4 Gy irradiation alone ((22.9±2.1)% vs. (16.3±1.0)%, t=-4.870, P<0.01). Compared to the cells with 4 Gy irradiation alone, miR-18a-overexpressed cells plus 4 Gy irradiation decreased their percentages in G1 phases ((20.2±3.0)% vs. (29.8±4.4)%, t=3.119) and G2/M phases ((21.5±0.9)% vs. (33.4±3.1)%, t=6.410, P<0.05 for both), and increased their percentages in S phases ((56.7±4.9)% vs. (36.8±6.4)%, t=-4.246, P<0.05), and these cells possessed less colony number after exposure to different doses of irradiation, more autophagy-lysosome number, and more expressions of LC3 proteins (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the expressions of p62 expressions between different groups of cells. Conclusion: Overexpression of miR-18a can enhance the radiosensitivities of NPC cells by targeting ATM to abrogate G1/S, G2/M arrest and to induce autophagy and apoptosis.

Background@#In China, secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCR) has been widely used in ovarian cancer (OC) over the past two decades. Although Gynecologic Oncology Group-0213 trial did not show its overall survival benefit in first relapsed patients, the questions on patient selection and effect of subsequent targeting therapy are still open. The preliminary data from our pre-SOC1 phase II study showed that selected patients with second relapse who never received SCR at recurrence may still benefit from surgery. Moreover, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) maintenance now has been a standard care for platinum sensitive relapsed OC. To our knowledge, no published or ongoing trial is trying to answer the question if patient can benefit from a potentially complete resection combined with PARPi maintenance in OC patients with secondary recurrence. @*Methods@#SOC-3 is a multi-center, open, randomized, controlled, phase II trial of SCR followed by chemotherapy and niraparib maintenance vs chemotherapy and niraparib maintenance in patients with platinum-sensitive second relapsed OC who never received SCR at recurrence. To guarantee surgical quality, if the sites had no experience of participating in any OC-related surgical trials, the number of recurrent lesions evaluated by central-reviewed positron emission tomography–computed tomography image shouldn't be more than 3. Eligible patients are randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either SCR followed by 6 cyclesof platinum-based chemotherapy and niraparib maintenance or 6 cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy and niraparib maintenance alone. Patients who undergo at least 4 cycles of chemotherapy and must be, in the opinion of the investigator, without disease progression, will be assigned niraparib maintenance. Major inclusion criteria are secondary relapsed OC with a platinum-free interval of no less than 6 months and a possibly complete resection. Major exclusion criteria are borderline tumors and non-epithelial ovarian malignancies, received debulking surgery at recurrence and impossible to complete resection. The sample size is 96 patients. Primary endpoint is 12-month non-progression rate.

Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Artemisiae Annuae Herba(LA or Jinqing) alcohol precipitation has various process parameters and complex process mechanism, and is one of the key units for manufacturing Reduning Injection. In order to identify the critical process parameters(CPPs) affecting the weight of the extract produced from the alcohol precipitation process, 259 batches of historical production data from 2017 to 2018 were collected, with a total of 829 318 data points. These data showed characteristics of large data, such as a large data volume, a low value density, and diverse sources. The data cleaning and feature extraction were first performed, and 48 feature variables were selected. The original data points were reduced to 9 936. Then, a combination of Pearson correlation analysis and grey correlation analysis were used to screen out 15 potential critical process parameters(pCPPs). After that, the partial least squares(PLS) was used in prediction of the weight of the extract, proving that the performance of predictive model based on 15 pCMAs is equivalent to that of predictive model based on 48 feature variables. The variable importance in projection(VIP) index was used to identify 9 CPPs, including 2 alcohol precipitation supernatant volume parameters, 4 initial extract weight parameters and 3 added alcohol volume parameters. As a result, the number of data points was 1 863, accounting for 0.28% of the original data. The big data analysis approach from a holistic point of view can effectively increase the value density of the original data. The critical process parameters obtained can help to accurately describe the quality transfer mechanism of the Jinqing alcohol precipitation process.

To control the risks of powder caking and capsule shell embrittlement of Guizhi Fuling Capsules, a predictive model for hygroscopicity of contents in Guizhi Fuling Capsules was built. A total of 90 batches of samples, including raw materials, intermediate powders and capsules, were collected during the manufacturing of Guizhi Fuling Capsules. According to the production sequence, 47 batches were used as the calibration set, and the properties of raw materials and the four intermediate powders were comprehensively characterized by the physical fingerprint. Then, the partial least squares(PLS) model was developed with the content hygroscopicity as the response variable. The variable importance in projection(VIP), variance inflation factor(VIF) and regression coefficients were used to screen out potential critical material attributes(pCMAs). As a result, five pCMAs from 54 physical parameters were screened out. Furthermore, different models were built by different combinations of pCMAs, and their predictive robustness of 43 batches was evaluated on the basis of the validation set. Finally, the tap density(D_c) of wet granules obtained from wet granulation and the angle of repose(α) of raw materials were identified as the critical material attributes(CMAs) affecting the hygroscopicity of the contents of Guizhi Fuling Capsules. The prediction model established with the two CMAs as independent variables had an average relative prediction error of 2.68% for samples in the validation set, indicating a good accuracy of prediction. This paper proved the feasibility of predictive modeling toward the control of critical quality attributes of Chinese medicine oral solid dosage(OSD). The combination of the continuous quality improvement, the industrial big data and the process modeling technique paved the way for the intelligent manufacturing of Chinese medicine oral solid preparations.

In this paper, a real time release testing(RTRT) model for predicting the disintegration time of Tianshu tablets was established on the basis of the concept of quality by design(QbD), in order to improve the quality controllability of the production process. First, 49 batches of raw materials and intermediates were collected. Afterwards, the physical quality attributes of all materials were comprehensively characterized. The partial least square(PLS) regression model was established with the 72 physical quality attributes of raw materials and intermediates as input and the disintegration time(DT) of uncoated tablets as output. Then, the variable screening was carried out based on the variable importance in the projection(VIP) indexes. Moisture content of raw materials(%HR), tapped density of wet masses(D_c), hygroscopicity of dry granules(%H), moisture content of milling granules(%HR) and Carr's index of mixed granules(IC) were determined as the potential critical material attributes(pCMAs). According to the effects of interactions of pCMAs on the performance of the prediction model, it was finally determined that the wet masses' D_c and the dry granules'%H were critical material attributes(CMAs). A RTRT model of the disintegration time prediction was established as DT=34.09+2×D_c+3.59×%H-5.29×%H×D_c,with R~2 equaling to 0.901 7 and the adjusted R~2 equaling to 0.893 3. The average relative prediction error of validation set for the RTRT model was 3.69%. The control limits of the CMAs were determined as 0.55 g·cm~(-3)<D_c<0.63 g·cm~(-3) and 4.77<%H<7.59 according to the design space. The RTRT model of the disintegration time reflects the understanding of the process system, and lays a foundation for the implementation of intelligent control strategy of the key process of Tianshu Tablets.

In this experiment,the antioxidant capacity of raspberry extract and the protective effect on liver injury induced by ConA in mice were investigated. Balb/C male mice were randomly divided into six groups: normal group,model group,bicyclol control group( 200 mg·kg~(-1)),low-dose raspberry extract group( 200 mg·kg~(-1)),middle-dose raspberry extract group( 400 mg·kg~(-1)),and highdose raspberry extract group( 800 mg·kg~(-1)). Each group was intragastrically administered with drugs according to the body weight once a day. Seven days later,all of the groups except for the normal group were treated with ConA( 20 mg·kg~(-1)) through tail vein injection to establish the acute liver injury model. The mice were put to death 8 hours later. The organ indexes were calculated. These rum levels of ALT,AST and LDH and the activities of SOD,CAT,GSH and MDA in liver tissue were detected. HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of liver tissue in mice. Western blot was used to detect the expressions of Bax,Bcl-2,Nrf2 and Keap-1. The antioxidant capacity of raspberry extract was measured by CAA assay. The results showed that,raspberry extract had a strong antioxidant capacity. Simultaneously,compared with the model group,raspberry extract can significantly improve the pathological conditions of liver,and significantly reduce ALT,AST and LDH activities in serum of liver injury mice( P<0. 01). The activities of SOD,CAT in liver homogenate supernatant were significantly increased in the high-dose group,the content of GSH increased,while the content of MDA was sharply declined in the high-dose group( P<0. 01). Meanwhile,raspberry extract down-regulated the expressions of Bax and Keap-1 and up-regulated the expressions of Bcl-2 and Nrf2. CAA showed that the compound raspberry extract had a strong antioxidant capacity. Therefore,raspberry extract has an obvious protective effect on acute liver injury induced by ConA in mice.

BACKGROUND: Bisphenol F (BPF) and bisphenol S (BPS) are increasingly used as substitutes for bisphenol A (BPA), an environmental obesogen. However, health effects of BPF and BPS remain unclear. In this study, we evaluated the associations of BPA, BPF, and BPS with obesity in children and adolescents. METHODS: We used data from the U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013 to 2014, a nationally representative study. We included 745 participants aged 6 to 17 years old. General obesity was defined based on the 2000 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention body mass index-for-age growth charts for the United States. Abdominal obesity was defined as waist-to-height ratio ≥0.5. RESULTS: After adjustment for demographic, socioeconomic and lifestyle factors, and urinary creatinine levels, the odds ratio of general obesity comparing the highest with lowest quartile of urinary bisphenol levels was 1.74 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.92 to 3.31) for BPA, 1.54 (95% CI, 1.02 to 2.32) for BPF, and 1.36 (95% CI, 0.53 to 3.51) for BPS. Moreover, the associations were stronger in boys than in girls for BPA and BPF. Similar results were observed for abdominal obesity. CONCLUSION: This study for the first time showed that exposure to BPF, a commonly used substitute for BPA, was positively associated with higher risk of obesity in children and adolescents. The association of BPA and BPF with general and abdominal obesity was primarily observed in boys, suggesting a possible sex difference. Further investigations on the underlying mechanisms are needed.

BACKGROUND: To date, there is no report on the successful construction of a three-dimensional finite element model of maxillary premolar with wedge-shaped defect restored by fiber post.OBJECTIVE: To establish the three-dimensional finite element model of maxillary premolar with wedge-shaped defect restored by fiber post. METHODS: Micro-CT was used to obtain imaging information of the human maxillary first premolar sample. Then Mimics, Geomagic and Hypermesh were used to establish a clear-structured three-dimensional finite element model of pulp-exposed maxillary premolar with wedge-shaped defect restored by fiber post. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The three-dimensional finite element model of normal maxillary premolar had 180 119 units and 33 289 nodes. Compared with the real subject, the three-dimensional finite element model of maxillary premolar with wedge-shaped defect restored by fiber post had vivid appearance, good image quality and accurate grid partitioning with 237 496 units and 43 965 nodes in total, which could obtain good results in the aspects of geometry, boundary constraint and mechanical compatibility. Moreover, it could better simulate the mechanical stress distribution of diseased teeth under occlusion to further confirm the magnitude and distribution of forces, thereby providing a better basis for future biomechanical studies.

<p><b>PURPOSE</b>To enhance the awareness of rare complications of pelvic fracture and describe the correct diagnosis and effective treatment.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 188 cases of pelvic fractures were retrospectively reviewed, and four patients who suffered from four types of rare pelvic fracture complications were described, namely ureteral obstruction caused by retroperitoneal hematoma-induced abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS), bowel entrapment, external iliac artery injury, and open scrotal sac injury.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>We demonstrated that combined measures should be employed to prevent the occurrence of ACS following major pelvic fractures. Ureteral catheter support may be a good option at an early stage when ACS occurred. Contrasted computed tomography examination and sufficient awareness are keys to a correct diagnosis of bowel entrapment following pelvic fractures. Recognition of risk factors, early diagnosis, and prompt treatment of suspected injury of the external iliac artery are keys to patient survival and to avoid limb loss. Scrotal and/or testicular injury complicated by pelvic fractures should be carefully treated to maintain normal gonad function. Additionally, establishment of a sophisticated trauma care system and multi-disciplinary coordination are important for correct diagnosis and treat- ment of rare complications in pelvic fractures.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Rare complications of pelvic fractures are difficult to diagnose and negatively impact outcome.

<p><b>Objective</b>To investigate the pathological characteristics, diagnosis, and differential diagnosis of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS) in the male reproductive system.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We obtained the clinicopathological features, immunophenotypes, and electron microscopic findings of 11 male patients with ERMS in the reproductive system from 2000 to 2015, analyzed the data, and reviewed relevant literature.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>ERMS developed in these patients at a median age of 17 (9-58) years, 3 cases in the testis, 4 in the scrotum, 1 in the epididymis, and 3 in the prostate. ERMS presented no clinical specificity, which made it difficult to be differentiated from inflammatory and other benign lesions. Microscopically, the tumor cells were arranged in a diffuse or fascicular distribution and mainly composed of short spindle-like, round, or irregularly shaped cells with nuclear hyperchromatism, the cytoplasm strongly eosinophilic, with differentiation of the striated muscle. Some of the cells were naively differentiated or tennis racket-shaped and some exhibited vacuolar degeneration in the cytoplasm. The nuclei were round or short spindle-shaped with visible nucleoli and mitoses. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for Myogenin (5/6), Desmin (11/11), MyoD1 (8/9), and Myosin (1/2). Electron microscopy revealed early myofibrils in the cytoplasm of the tumor cells.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>ERMS is a rare and highly malignant tumor characterized by local invasion and early metastasis and apt to develop in the reproductive system of young males. The diagnosis of the malignancy is mainly based on its histopathological and immunohistochemical manifestations, combined with electron microscopy when necessary. Early surgical resection in combination with radio- and chemotherapy is recommended for its treatment, which could reduce the recurrence of the tumor and improve the survival of the patients.</p>
