RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: This randomized, parallel-controlled, double-blinded, phase III equivalence study evaluated the equivalence of a proposed pertuzumab biosimilar QL1209 to the pertuzumab (Perjeta®) each with trastuzumab and docetaxel in neoadjuvant treatment of early or locally advanced breast cancer patients with HER2-positive, ER/PR-negative. METHODS: Eligible patients were randomly (1:1) assigned to receive 4 cycles of neoadjuvant QL1209 or pertuzumab each with trastuzumab and docetaxel, and adjuvant treatment. The primary endpoint was total pathologic complete response (tpCR), with equivalence margins of 0.76 to 1.32. RESULTS: Among the 585 patients enrolled, 257 and 259 patients were assigned to the QL1209 and pertuzumab groups, respectively. The tpCR rates were comparable in the QL1209 (109/255, 42.75%; 90% CI 37.65 to 47.84) and pertuzumab (117/259, 45.17%; 90% CI 40.09 to 50.26) groups. The tpCR risk ratio was 0.95 (90% CI, 0.80 to 1.11), and the 90% CI fell within the predefined equivalence margin. The most common grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse event was decreased neutrophil count (10. 9% vs. 12.7%) in the QL1209 and pertuzumab groups. CONCLUSIONS: QL1209 demonstrated equivalent efficacy and comparable safety profile to the reference pertuzumab in neoadjuvant treatment of HER2-positive, ER/PR-negative, early, or locally advanced breast cancer.

RESUMEN
This multicenter, open-label, single-arm trial (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05236621) was conducted to confirm the efficacy and safety of generic pomalidomide plus dexamethasone in Chinese patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). Total 79 eligible RRMM patients were planned to be included. Patients were treated with generic pomalidomide (4 mg daily on days 1-21, orally) and low-dose dexamethasone (40 mg/day on days 1, 8, 15, and 22, orally; 20 mg for patients aged > 75 years) in 28-day cycles until disease progression with a maximum treatment duration of 2 years. The primary endpoint is the overall response rate (ORR) assessed by the independent review committee per the 2016 International Myeloma Working Group guidelines. A total of 85 eligible patients were included in this study from 32 centers in China, with a median age of 62.0 (range, 39-76) years, a median prior line of therapy of 4 (range, 1-16), and 41.2% patients with high-risk cytogenetics. The ORR was 38.8% (95% confidence interval (CI), 28.44-50.01). The disease control rate was 67.1% (95% CI, 56.02-76.87), meanwhile, the median progression-free survival was 5.55 months (95% CI, 3.68-7.52). Among the treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs), infective pneumonia (17.6%) was the most frequent non-hematologic adverse event, while a decrease in neutrophil count (52.9%) was the most common grade ≥ 3 TRAE. The study results indicated that the generic pomalidomide demonstrated consistent efficacy and a safety profile similar to the branded pomalidomide when combined with low-dose dexamethasone in Chinese RRMM patients.Registration number ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05236621, retrospectively registered on February 11, 2022.

BACKGROUND: Iruplinalkib (WX-0593) is an anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)/c-ros oncogene 1 (ROS1) tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Here we reported the single-arm, phase II study (INTELLECT) results of the efficacy and safety of iruplinalkib for ALK-positive crizotinib-resistant advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. METHODS: ALK-positive crizotinib-resistant advanced NSCLC patients aged ≥18 years, with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-2 were eligible. Patients received iruplinalkib 180 mg orally once daily for a 21-day cycle with a 7-day lead-in phase at 60 mg orally once daily. The primary endpoint was the independent review committee (IRC)-assessed objective response rate (ORR). RESULTS: From August 7, 2019, to October 30, 2020, 146 patients were included. As of the data cut-off date on November 30, 2021, the median follow-up time was 18.2 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 16.8-18.8). IRC-assessed ORR and disease control rate (DCR) were 69.9% (95% CI 61.7-77.2%) and 96.6% (95% CI 92.2-98.9%), respectively. Investigator-assessed ORR and DCR were 63.0% (95% CI 54.6-70.8%) and 94.5% (95% CI 89.5-97.6%), respectively. Investigator-assessed median duration of response and progression-free survival (the same as median time to progression) were 13.2 months (95% CI 10.4-17.7) and 14.5 months (95% CI 11.7-20.0), respectively. Corresponding IRC-assessed results were 14.4 months (95% CI 13.1-not evaluable [NE]), 19.8 months (95% CI 14.5-NE), and NE (95% CI 14.5-NE), respectively. Investigator-assessed intracranial ORRs were 46% (41/90, 95% CI 35-56%) in patients with central nervous system metastases and 64% (27/42, 95% CI 48-78%) in patients with measurable intracranial lesions. Overall survival data were immature. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) occurred in 136/146 (93.2%) patients. The most common TRAEs were aspartate aminotransferase increased (63 [43.2%]), alanine aminotransferase increased (54 [37.0%]), and blood creatine phosphokinase increased (51 [34.9%]). Dose interruption, reduction, and discontinuation due to TRAEs occurred in 21 (14.4%), 16 (11.0%), and four (2.7%) patients, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: In this study, iruplinalkib (WX-0593) demonstrated favorable efficacy and manageable safety profiles in patients with ALK-positive crizotinib-resistant advanced NSCLC. Iruplinalkib could be a new treatment option for this patient population.

Hypoxia is characteristic of the ovarian tumor (OC) microenvironment and profoundly affects tumorigenesis and therapeutic response. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play various roles in tumor progression; however, the characteristics of lncRNAs in pathological responses of the OC microenvironment are not entirely understood. Through high-throughput sequencing, lncRNA expression in hypoxia (1% O2 ) and normoxia (21% O2 ) SKOV3 cells was explored and analyzed. The 5'- and 3'-rapid amplification of complementary DNA ends was used to detect the full length of the novel HIF1A-AS3 transcript. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to assess HIF1A-AS3 expression in OC cells and tissues. In vitro and in vivo evaluations of the biological functions of hypoxic HIF1A-AS3 were conducted. To clarify the underlying mechanisms of HIF1A-AS3 in hypoxic OC, a dual-luciferase assay, chromatin immunoprecipitation, RNA pull-down, RNA immunoprecipitation, and RNA-sequencing were used. We used high-throughput sequencing to investigate a novel lncRNA, HIF1A-AS3, as a hypoxic candidate significantly elevated in OC cells/tissues. HIF1A-AS3 was predominantly localized in the nucleus and promoted in vitro and in vivo OC growth and tumorigenesis. Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α bound to hypoxia response elements in the HIF1A-AS3 promoter region and stimulated its expression in hypoxia. Under hypoxia, HIF1A-AS3 directly integrated with Y-Box binding protein 1 and inhibited its ability to bind to the promoters of p21 and AJAP1 to repress their transcriptional activity, thereby promoting hypoxic OC progression. Our results revealed the crucial role and mechanism of the novel hypoxic HIF1A-AS3 in the oncogenesis of OC. The novel HIF1A-AS3 could be a crucial biomarker and therapeutic target for future OC treatments.

WEE1 plays an important role in the regulation of cell cycle G2/M checkpoints and DNA damage response (DDR). Inhibition of WEE1 can increase the instability of the genome and have anti-tumor effects in some solid tumors. However, it has certain limitations for multiple cancer cells from different lineages. Therefore, we consider the use of synthetic lethal interactions to enhance the therapeutic effect. Our experiments proved that WEE1 inhibitor (WEE1i) can activate the ataxia telangiectasia and RAD3-related (ATR) pathway and that blockage of ATR dramatically sensitized the WEE1i-induced cell death. The tumor-selective synthetic lethality between bioavailable WEE1 and ATR inhibitors led to tumor remission in vivo. Mechanistically, the combination promoted the accumulation of cytosolic double-strand DNA, which subsequently activated the stimulator of the interferon gene (STING) pathway and induced the production of type I interferon and CD8+ T cells, thereby inducing anti-tumor immunity. Furthermore, our study found that immune checkpoint programmed death-ligand 1 is upregulated by the combination therapy, and blocking PD-L1 further enhances the effect of the combination therapy. In summary, as an immunomodulator, the combination of WEE1i with ATR inhibitor (ATRi) and immune checkpoint blockers provides a potential new approach for cancer treatment.

A common mutation in the gene encoding the cytoplasmic sensor Nod2, involving a frameshift insertion at nucleotide 3020 (3020insC), is strongly associated with Crohn's disease. How 3020insC contributes to this disease is a controversial issue. Clinical studies have identified defective production of interleukin 10 (IL-10) in patients with Crohn's disease who bear the 3020insC mutation, which suggests that 3020insC may be a loss-of-function mutation. However, here we found that 3020insC Nod2 mutant protein actively inhibited IL10 transcription. The 3020insC Nod2 mutant suppressed IL10 transcription by blocking phosphorylation of the nuclear ribonucleoprotein hnRNP-A1 via the mitogen-activated protein kinase p38. We confirmed impairment in phosphorylation of hnRNP-A1 and binding of hnRNP-A1 to the IL10 locus in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from patients with Crohn's disease who bear the 3020insC mutation and have lower production of IL-10.

Single-crystal structures of five lanthanide-erythritol complexes are reported. The analysis of the chemical compositions and scrutinization of structural features in the single-crystal data of the complexes led us to find that unexpected deprotonation occurs on the OH group of erythritol of three complexes. Considering these complexes were prepared in acidic environments, where spontaneous ionization on an OH group is suppressed, we suggest metal ions play an important role in promoting the proton transfer. To find out why the chemically inert OH is activated, the single-crystal structures of 63 rare-earth complexes containing organic ligands with multiple hydroxyl groups (OLMHs) were surveyed. The formation of µ2-bridges turns out to be directly relevant to the occurrence of deprotonation. When an OH group from an OLMH molecule participates in the formation of a µ2-bridge, the polarization ability of the metal ions becomes strong enough to promote the deprotonation on the OH group. The above structural characteristics may be useful in the rational design of catalysts that can activate the chemically inert OH group and promote the relevant chemical conversions.
RESUMEN
We propose a rectangular transverse through-hole wideband tonpilz transducer using multimode coupling. To excite a vibration mode that can be coupled with the longitudinal vibration for broadening the frequency band, a rectangular through-hole is opened at a certain distance from the front head of the conventional longitudinal vibration tonpilz transducer. To achieve the best bandwidth, the finite element method was used to optimize the length and width of the through-hole and the distance between the front end of the hole and the end surface of the front head. In addition, to obtain the best hole position and size, a prototype tonpilz transducer was developed. The test results show that the transducer has three main operating modes within 12-32.5 kHz, and the latter two modes contribute to the widening of operating bandwidth. A longitudinal vibration tonpilz transducer of the same size with no hole has a 3 dB bandwidth of only 3 kHz, whereas the holed transducer has a bandwidth of 10.5 kHz. Effectively expanding the working bandwidth shows that the theoretical calculations and experimental results are in good agreement.
RESUMEN
Tilting sampling is a novel sampling mode for achieving a higher resolution of hyperspectral imagery. However, most studies on the tilting image have only focused on a single band, which loses the features of hyperspectral imagery. This study focuses on the restoration of tilting hyperspectral imagery and the practicality of its results. First, we reduced the huge data of tilting hyperspectral imagery by the p-value sparse matrix band selection method (pSMBS). Then, we restored the reduced imagery by optimal reciprocal cell combined modulation transfer function (MTF) method. Next, we built the relationship between the restored tilting image and the original normal image. We employed the least square method to solve the calibration equation for each band. Finally, the calibrated tilting image and original normal image were both classified by the unsupervised classification method (K-means) to confirm the practicality of calibrated tilting images in remote sensing applications. The results of classification demonstrate the optimal reciprocal cell combined MTF method can effectively restore the tilting image and the calibrated tiling image can be used in remote sensing applications. The restored and calibrated tilting image has a higher resolution and better spectral fidelity.
RESUMEN
In this study, we propose a new approach to generate two-dimension spectra to enhance the intensity of cross peaks relevant to intermolecular interaction. We investigate intermolecular interaction between two solutes (denoted as P and Q, where P has a characteristic peak at XP) dissolved in the same solvent via the near diagonal cross peaks around the coordinate (XP, XP) in a two-dimensional (2D) asynchronous spectrum of generalized spectroscopy. Because of physical constrains in many cases, the variation ranges of the initial concentrations of P or Q must be kept very narrow, leading to very weak cross peak intensities. The weak cross peaks vulnerable to noise bring about difficulty in the investigation of subtle intermolecular interaction. Herein, we propose a new of way constructing a 2D asynchronous spectrum without the subtraction of the average spectrum often used as a reference spectrum. Mathematical analysis and computer simulation demonstrate that the near diagonal cross peaks around the coordinate (XP, XP) in the 2D asynchronous spectrum using the new approach possess two characteristics: (1) they can still reflect an intermolecular interaction reliably; 2) the absolute intensities of the cross peaks are significantly stronger than those generated by the conventional method. We incorporate the novel method with the DAOSD (double asynchronous orthogonal sample design scheme) approach and applied the modified DAOSD approach to study hydrogen bonding behavior in diethyl either/methanol/THF system. The new approach made the weak cross peaks, which are not observable in 2D asynchronous spectrum generated using conventional approach, become observable. The appearance of the cross peak demonstrate that When a small amount of THF is introduced into diethyl solution containing low amount of methanol, THF breaks the methanol-diethyl ether complex and forms methanol-THF complex via new hydrogen bond. This process takes place in spite of the fact that the content of diethyl ether is overwhelmingly larger than that of THF. The above result demonstrates that the new approach described in this article is applicable to enhance intensity of cross peaks in real chemical systems.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the oncological safety and fertility outcomes of different fertility-sparing surgery procedures for bilateral borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs) and to identify the safest and most effective approach to help patients conceive with minimal risk. STUDY DESIGN: A retrospective study of 144 patients (≤40 years) with pathologically confirmed bilateral BOTs were included in the study.The effects of surgery type on fertility outcome and recurrence were compared. Cox regression analysis was employed to determine potential prognostic factors. Survival analysis utilized the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS: Three therapeutic modalities were applied in our study, including bilateral ovarian cystectomy (BOC; n = 29), unilateral adnexectomy + contralateral cystectomy (UAC; n = 4) and radical surgery (n = 61). Totally 33 cases (22.9 %) relapsed during the follow-up period. In 37 % of cases administered conservative surgery, relapses were diagnosed in the first 2 years. Only conservative surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy were risk factors for recurrence. Meanwhile, a pregnancy rate of 55.4 % was obtained in patients with bilateral BOTs. The pregnancy rate was slightly higher but no significant (P = 0.539) difference in patients treated with BOC (n = 17, 63 %) compared with UAC (n = 29, 55.8 %) group. GnRHa treatment significantly improved the clinical pregnancy rate in this study(P = 0.029). CONCLUSIONS: Satisfactory pregnancy rate can be achieved after conservative surgery in patients with bilateral BOTs. BOC is worth recommending for bilateral borderline ovarian tumors and a critical factor in fertility is the preservation of maximum healthy ovarian tissue. Patients should make a pregnancy plan in 2 years after the first surgery. GnRHa increase the rate of successful clinical pregnancies.

Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy's role in ovarian cancer remains controversial, hindered by limited understanding of hyperthermia-induced tumor cellular changes. This limits developing potent combinatory strategies anchored in hyperthermic intraperitoneal therapy (HIPET). Here, we perform a comprehensive multi-omics study on ovarian cancer cells under hyperthermia, unveiling a distinct molecular panorama, primarily characterized by rapid protein phosphorylation changes. Based on the phospho-signature, we pinpoint CDK1 kinase is hyperactivated during hyperthermia, influencing the global signaling landscape. We observe dynamic, reversible CDK1 activity, causing replication arrest and early mitotic entry post-hyperthermia. Subsequent drug screening shows WEE1 inhibition synergistically destroys cancer cells with hyperthermia. An in-house developed miniaturized device confirms hyperthermia and WEE1 inhibitor combination significantly reduces tumors in vivo. These findings offer additional insights into HIPET, detailing molecular mechanisms of hyperthermia and identifying precise drug combinations for targeted treatment. This research propels the concept of precise hyperthermic intraperitoneal therapy, highlighting its potential against ovarian cancer.

First-line chemoimmunotherapy (with or without bevacizumab) has improved outcomes in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, this open-label, multi-cohort phase II study (NCT05329025) was done to investigate the safety and efficacy of QL1706 (a single bifunctional MabPair product against PD-1 and CTLA-4) and chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab in this population. Patients were enrolled into five different cohorts based on genotype (cohorts 1-4, epidermal growth factor receptor [EGFR] wild-type; cohort 5, EGFR-mutant and progressed on EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors [TKIs]). Between June 11, 2021 and December 29, 2021, 91 patients were enrolled. Most frequent treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) included decreased appetite (60 [65.9%]), anemia (60 [65.9%]), infusion-related reactions (48 [52.7%]), and pruritus (44 [48.4%]). Grade ≥ 3 TRAEs occurred in 30 (33.0%) patients. Twenty-seven (45%) patients with wild-type EGFR achieved partial response (PR) (objective response rate [ORR] = 45%) and had a median progression-free survival (mPFS) of 6.8 months (95% CI: 5.2-9.7). For 31 patients harboring mutated EGFR, 17 (54.8%) achieved PR (ORR = 54.8%), with an mPFS of 8.5 months (95% CI: 5.72-not evaluable). Overall, QL1706 plus chemotherapy, regardless of having bevacizumab, was generally tolerable and had promising antitumor activity for EGFR wild-type advanced NSCLC in first-line setting. Moreover, QL1706 plus chemotherapy and bevacizumab showed favorable antitumor activity for patients who had EGFR mutated NSCLC but failed in TKI therapy, demonstrating a potential for treating this population.

INTRODUCTION: Iruplinalkib (WX-0593) is a new-generation, potent ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that has been found to have systemic and central nervous system (CNS) efficacy in ALK-positive NSCLC. We compared the efficacy and safety of iruplinalkib with crizotinib in patients with ALK TKI-naive, locally advanced or metastatic ALK-positive NSCLC. METHODS: In this open-label, randomized, multicenter, phase 3 study, patients with ALK-positive NSCLC were randomly assigned to receive iruplinalkib 180 mg once daily (7-d run-in at 60 mg once daily) or crizotinib 250 mg twice daily. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) assessed by Independent Review Committee (IRC) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. Secondary end points included PFS by investigator, objective response rate (ORR), time to response, duration of response, intracranial ORR and time to CNS progression by IRC and investigator, overall survival, and safety. An interim analysis was planned after approximately 70% (134 events) of all 192 expected PFS events assessed by IRC were observed. Efficacy was analyzed in the intention-to-treat population. Safety was assessed in the safety population, which included all randomized patients who received at least one dose of the study drugs. This study is registered with Center for Drug Evaluation of China National Medical Products Administration (CTR20191231) and Clinicaltrials.gov (NCT04632758). RESULTS: From September 4, 2019, to December 2, 2020, a total of 292 patients were randomized and treated; 143 with iruplinalkib and 149 with crizotinib. At this interim analysis (145 events), the median follow-up time was 26.7 months (range: 3.7-37.7) in the iruplinalkib group and 25.9 months (range: 0.5-35.9) in the crizotinib group. The PFS assessed by IRC was significantly longer among patients in the iruplinalkib group (median PFS, 27.7 mo [95% confidence interval (CI): 26.3-not estimable] versus 14.6 mo [95% CI: 11.1-16.5] in the crizotinib group; hazard ratio, 0.34 [98.02% CI: 0.23-0.52], p < 0.0001). The ORR assessed by IRC was 93.0% (95% CI: 87.5-96.6) in the iruplinalkib group and 89.3% (95% CI: 83.1-93.7) in the crizotinib group. The intracranial ORR was 90.9% (10 of 11, 95% CI: 58.7-99.8) in the iruplinalkib group and 60.0% (nine of 15, 95% CI: 32.3-83.7) in the crizotinib group for patients with measurable baseline CNS metastases. Incidence of grade 3 or 4 treatment-related adverse events was 51.7% in the iruplinalkib group and 49.7% in the crizotinib group. CONCLUSIONS: Iruplinalkib was found to have significantly improved PFS and improved intracranial antitumor activity versus crizotinib. Iruplinalkib may be a new treatment option for patients with advanced ALK-positive and ALK TKI-naive NSCLC.

Ovarian cancer (OC) manifests as a complex disease characterized by inter- and intra-patient heterogeneity. Despite enhanced biological and genetic insights, OC remains a recalcitrant malignancy with minimal survival improvement. Based on multi-site sampling and a multi-lineage patient-derived xenograft (PDX) establishment strategy, we present herein the establishment of a comprehensive PDX biobank from histologically and molecularly heterogeneous OC patients. Comprehensive profiling of matched PDX and patient samples demonstrates that PDXs closely recapitulate parental tumors. By leveraging multi-lineage models, we reveal that the previously reported genomic disparities of PDX could be mainly attributed to intra-patient spatial heterogeneity instead of substantial model-independent genomic evolution. Moreover, DNA damage response pathway inhibitor (DDRi) screening uncovers heterogeneous responses across models. Prolonged iterative drug exposure recapitulates acquired drug resistance in initially sensitive models. Meanwhile, interrogation of induced drug-resistant (IDR) models reveals that suppressed interferon (IFN) response and activated Wnt/ß-catenin signaling contribute to acquired DDRi drug resistance.

OBJECTIVE: QL1604 is a highly selective, humanized monoclonal antibody against programmed death protein 1. We assessed the efficacy and safety of QL1604 plus chemotherapy as first-line treatment in patients with advanced cervical cancer. METHODS: This was a multicenter, open-label, single-arm, phase II study. Patients with advanced cervical cancer and not previously treated with systemic chemotherapy were enrolled to receive QL1604 plus paclitaxel and cisplatin/carboplatin on day 1 of each 21-day cycle for up to 6 cycles, followed by QL1604 maintenance treatment. RESULTS: Forty-six patients were enrolled and the median follow-up duration was 16.5 months. An 84.8% of patients had recurrent disease and 13.0% had stage IVB disease. The objective response rate (ORR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Advanced Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 was 58.7% (27/46). The immune ORR per immune RECIST was 60.9% (28/46). The median duration of response was 9.6 months (95% confidence interval [CI]=5.5-not estimable). The median progression-free survival was 8.1 months (95% CI=5.7-14.0). Forty-five (97.8%) patients experienced treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs). The most common grade≥3 TRAEs (>30%) were neutrophil count decrease (50.0%), anemia (32.6%), and white blood cell count decrease (30.4%). CONCLUSION: QL1604 plus paclitaxel-cisplatin/carboplatin showed promising antitumor activity and manageable safety profile as first-line treatment in patients with advanced cervical cancer. Programmed cell death protein 1 inhibitor plus chemotherapy may be a potential treatment option for the patient population who have contraindications or can't tolerate bevacizumab, which needs to be further verified in phase III confirmatory study.

RESUMEN
Endometrial carcinoma remains a public health concern with a growing incidence, particularly in younger women. Preserving fertility is a crucial consideration in the management of early-onset endometrioid endometrial carcinoma (EEEC), particularly in patients under 40 who maintain both reproductive desire and capacity. To illuminate the molecular characteristics of EEEC, we undertook a large-scale multi-omics study of 215 patients with endometrial carcinoma, including 81 with EEEC. We reveal an unexpected association between exposome-related mutational signature and EEEC, characterized by specific CTNNB1 and SIGLEC10 hotspot mutations and disruption of downstream pathways. Interestingly, SIGLEC10Q144K mutation in EEECs resulted in aberrant SIGLEC-10 protein expression and promoted progestin resistance by interacting with estrogen receptor alpha. We also identified potential protein biomarkers for progestin response in fertility-sparing treatment for EEEC. Collectively, our study establishes a proteogenomic resource of EEECs, uncovering the interactions between exposome and genomic susceptibilities that contribute to the development of primary prevention and early detection strategies for EEECs.

OBJECTIVE: To establish a characteristic HPLC fingerprint of Polygonum orientale inflorescence, and to provide reference for its quality evaluation. METHODS: Taxifolin was used as reference. HPLC analysis was carried out with Diamonsil C18 column (200 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 microm) using acetonitrile -0.1% phosphoric acid(gradient elution)as mobile phase at flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 280 nm and the column temperature was 30 degrees C. RESULTS: Eighteen common peaks were pointed out from the HPLC fingerprint of Polygonum orientale inflorescence from 12 different habitats. Among of them,four common peaks were identified as taxifolin, catechin, gallic acid and 3,3'-dimethyl ellagic acid-4-O-beta-D-glucoside. Analyzed by "Similarity Evaluation for Chromatographic Fingerprint of Traditional Chinese Medicine" software, the HPLC fingerprint similarities of 12 samples were more than 0.9. CONCLUSION: This method is repeatable and exclusive. It can be used for identification and quality control of Polygonum orientale inflorescence.

Background: Emergency medical service personnel are subjected to various stressors, which makes them more likely to develop post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms. Studies have shown that psychological detachment and presenteeism play a role at the level of post-traumatic stress disorder. There is no study to examine the relationship between psychological detachment, presenteeism, and post-traumatic stress disorder among emergency medical service personnel. Objective: The main objective of the study is to investigate the effects of presenteeism in explaining the relationship between psychological detachment and post-traumatic stress disorder among emergency medical service personnel. Design: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 836 emergency medical service personnel in 51 counties and cities in Hunan Province, China. Methods: They were anonymously investigated by using the Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R), the Stanford Presenteeism scale-6 (SPS-6), and the Psychological Detachment Scale. Statistic description, univariate analysis, pearson correlation, and structural equation model were adopted to analyze the data. Results: The mean score of IES-R, SPS-6, and the psychological detachment scale were 22.44 ± 16.70, 15.13 ± 4.20, and 11.30 ± 4.24. Post-traumatic stress disorder was positively relevant with presenteeism (r = 0.381, p< 0.01), but negatively correlated with psychological detachment (r = -0.220, p < 0.01). And presenteeism partially mediated the association between psychological detachment and post-traumatic stress disorder. Conclusions: The results show a high prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms in EMS personnel, presenteeism can statistically significantly predict post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms. If hospital management can reduce the presenteeism of emergency medical service personnel, this will help them reduce post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms.

OBJECTIVE: This study assessed the necessity of surgical re-staging in women with borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs) and evaluated the impact of complete surgical staging, lymphadenectomy, and omentectomy on disease recurrence and survival. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with BOTs. A total of 901 patients were eligible for inclusion in the study, and we evaluated some of the variables and clinical/surgical characteristics of the cases. The effects of the type of surgical procedure, surgical staging, and complete or incomplete staging on recurrence were calculated. The rates of disease-free survival, overall survival, and recurrence were compared according to complete surgical staging. A Cox regression analysis was performed to identify potential prognostic factors, and survival curves were constructed using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS: The overall recurrence rate was 13.9%, and recurrence was comparable between the complete surgical staging group and the incomplete groups (P>0.05). The performance of complete surgical staging did not show an effect on long-term survival, and complete surgical staging, omentectomy, and lymphadenectomy had no effect on recurrence. In multivariate analyses, only radical surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy were risk factors for the recurrence of BOTs. Furthermore, we found that omentectomy led to a relatively low recurrence rate in patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage > I (P=0.022). CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that complete surgical staging should be considered a standard treatment for patients with advanced stage BOTs but not for those at FIGO stage I. It might be safe to reduce the scope of surgical procedures in patients with early-stage BOTs. However, it is not necessary to perform re-staging operations for BOTs with a macroscopically normal extra-ovarian appearance.
