RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to carry out a bibliometric analysis of primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) from 2010 to 2020 and to reveal the research status and hotspots in the future. METHOD: A total of 3087 articles and reviews related to POI published from 2010 to 2020 retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection were used for bibliometric analysis. CiteSpace and VOSviewer were adopted to analyze countries and regions, organizations, authors, journals, keywords and co-cited references. RESULTS: The number of publications about POI increased year by year. The USA produced the largest number of publications and the most influence in this field. The main research directions of POI can be roughly divided into four aspects according to the analysis of keywords and co-cited references: genetic research of POI; stem cell therapy for patients with POI; prediction of ovarian function; and fertility preservation of cancer patients. Genetic research and stem cell therapy may become research hotspots in the future. CONCLUSION: This study might be the first bibliometric study to analyze publications of POI from multiple indicators, in order to provide new opinions for the research trends and possible hotspots of POI.

Health damage including chronic disease caused by air pollution have attracted increasing attention. With the acceleration of industrialization and urbanization, the emission of air pollutants has increased, and its association with chronic diseases has become a research trending topic. Cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and chronic respiratory disease are the major chronic diseases, causing about 86.6% of the total deaths in China. The prevention and control of chronic diseases, especially the etiologic prevention, is a major public health issue related to national health. This article summarizes the recent progress in research of association of indoor and outdoor air pollution with all-cause mortality, the deaths and disease burden of four major chronic diseases, i.e. cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and chronic respiratory disease, and puts forward suggestions for the reduction of the burden caused by chronic diseases due to air pollution to provide a theoretical foundation to revise air quality standards in China.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality and healthy life expectancy loss, ranking first in causing the global burden of disease. In addition to the traditional CVD risk factors, such as hypertension and diabetes, environmental chemical pollutants may also play a role in the development of CVD. This paper summarizes the evidence regarding the relation of exposures to metal or metalloid and persistent organic pollutants with risk for CVD and introduces the research progress in the relation between the exposures to two environmental chemical pollutants and CVD risk. The study aims to provide scientific evidence for the effective prevention of CVD through the management of chemical pollutants in environment.

Little is known about the somatic genetic changes which characterize pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The identification of acquired genomic alterations would further our understanding of the biology of this neoplasm. We have studied 62 primary pancreatic adenocarcinomas obtained from surgical resections using classical cytogenetics and fluorescent in situ hybridization methods. Clonally abnormal karyotypes were observed in 44 neoplasms. Karyotypes were generally complex (greater than three abnormalities) and included both numerical and structural chromosome abnormalities. Many tumors contained at least one marker chromosome. The most frequent whole chromosomal gains were chromosomes 20 (eight tumors) and 7 (seven tumors). Losses were much more frequent: chromosome 18 was lost in 22 tumors followed in frequency by chromosomes 13 (16 tumors), 12 (13 tumors), 17 (13 tumors), and 6 (12 tumors). Structural abnormalities were frequent. Two hundred nine chromosome breakpoints were identified. Excluding Robertsonian translocations, the chromosomal arms most frequently involved were 1p (12); 6q (11); 7q and 17p (9 each); and 1q, 3p, 11p, and 19q (8 each). Portions of the long arm of chromosome 6 appeared to be lost in nine tumors. To determine whether the apparent losses of portions of 6q are real, four tumors with 6q deletions were hybridized with a biotin-labeled microdissection probe from 6q24-ter. Loss of one copy of this region was verified in three of four tumors. In addition, double minute chromosomes were identified in eight cases. To our knowledge, these represent the first primary specimens of pancreatic adenocarcinoma with cytogenetic evidence of gene amplification.

Ependymomas, oligodendrogliomas, and low-grade astrocytomas are slow-growing central nervous system (CNS) tumors that occur in both adults and children, whereas craniopharyngiomas and choroid plexus papillomas occur predominantly in children. We examined karyotypes of 32 of these low-grade tumors, including ten oligodendrogliomas, six ependymomas, 11 low-grade astrocytomas, four craniopharyngiomas, and one choroid plexus papilloma. Only normal karyotypes were obtained from 6 oligodendrogliomas. The rest had normal stemlines; three tumors had 45,X,-Y sidelines and one tumor had a sideline of monosomy 22. The most frequent abnormalities in the ependymomas were +7 (three tumors), -21 (two tumors), -22 (two tumors), and del(9)(p22) (two tumors). Gains of chromosome 7 and deletions of 9p were found more often in high-grade gliomas. Seven low-grade astrocytomas had normal stemlines, two had chromosome 7 abnormalities, a pilocystic astrocytoma had +der(15), and one tumor had a -Y sideline. The four craniopharyngiomas and one choroid plexus tumor were all apparently normal. The cytogenetics of low-grade CNS tumors differ from higher grade gliomas in that most low-grade tumors show little deviation from the normal karyotype.

Chromosome analysis of short-term culture of melanoma cells from a choroidal melanoma showed a karyotype of 46,XY, -21, +t(6p21q). Trisomy 6p has been observed in cutaneous melanomas; this case suggests that chromosome abnormalities in ocular melanomas may be similar to those from cutaneous melanoma.

Thirty-three meningeal neoplasms were karyotyped, and the results were compared with histologic features. Thirteen neoplasms had no discernible abnormality or sex chromosome loss only; nine had monosomy or structural abnormality involving only chromosome 22; and 11 had other chromosome abnormalities with or without chromosome 22 involvement. Histologic evidence of invasion was not associated with an abnormal karyotype in the three angioblastic tumors examined. All seven fibroblastic meningiomas had abnormal karyotypes, with monosomy 22 the most common change. Abnormal karyotypes were detected in 76% of syncytial and 55% of transitional meningiomas. When these results were combined with those from 259 meningeal tumors reported since 1987, abnormal karyotypes were detected in at least half of all histologic types. Chromosome changes secondary to those involving chromosome 22 may indicate additional areas of the genome that play a role in tumor progression. In the combined series, chromosome losses were most frequently observed in meningiomatous and transitional histologies; chromosomes 1, 6, 14, 18, and Y each were lost in 10 or more meningiomas, whereas only chromosome 20 was gained at the same frequency. Structural abnormalities most frequently involved chromosome 1. These changes are distinctly different from those observed in other common intracranial neoplasms, specifically astrocytic neoplasms.

Endocrine neoplasms of the pancreas differ from the more common adenocarcinomas of the pancreas not only in histologic appearance, but also in clinical presentation and biologic behavior. Chromosomes were analyzed from nine fresh pancreatic endocrine neoplasms. Clonal chromosomal abnormalities were found in five; all were malignant neoplasms. One showed only a loss of the Y chromosome and another had a small triploid population of cells in addition to a normal mainline, with a karyotype of 61-66,XX, -X, -1, -2, -3, -4, +5, -6, +7, -11, -14, +17, +18, +20, +mar1,x2, +mar2,inc. Three neoplasms had near-haploid clones. One neoplasm had a composite karyotype of 31-36

The cytogenetic evaluation of prostatic adenocarcinoma has shown no consistent cytogenetic abnormalities. Despite manipulation of culture conditions, the majority of low-stage, untreated prostatic adenocarcinomas show a normal karyotype. We have performed cytogenetic analysis on eight primary prostate adenocarcinomas, using several control measures to increase the probability that any normal karyotype was derived from neoplastic cells rather than accompanying normal cells. Tumors were grown in media that encourages epithelial growth; DNA ploidy studies were performed before and after tissue culture; and immunohistochemical confirmation of the prostatic and epithelial nature of the cells was done following culture. Percentage of tumor on tissue sections adjacent to those submitted for culture was > 75% in all cases. Seven of eight cases were evaluable, and six cases showed no clonal abnormalities and were diploid. One tumor showed a population of tetraploid cells, without structural abnormalities. Three additional tumors showed evidence of tetraploidy by DNA analysis. One case showed nonclonal marker chromosomes and was aneuploid. This patient was pathologic Stage D. We conclude that the majority of prostatic adenocarcinomas at their inception may not show routinely detectable cytogenetic abnormalities. However, tetraploidy may play a role in the evolution of prostatic adenocarcinoma.

Adenocarcinoma of the pancreas is the fifth most common cause of cancer deaths in the United States, yet few cytogenetic studies of this tumor have been reported. We analyzed 26 primary tumors to identify which chromosome abnormalities occur most frequently in this neoplasm. One carcinoma was well differentiated and mucin producing, 18 were moderately well differentiated, and seven were poorly differentiated. Only normal karyotypes were obtained from nine carcinomas. The remaining 17 carcinomas frequently had normal metaphase cells in addition to simple to highly complex karyotypes. The modal chromosome number in 20 carcinomas was diploid or near-diploid; four carcinomas had both a major near-diploid and near-triploid or near-tetraploid component, and two were near-tetraploid. Numerical abnormalities included loss of whole copies of chromosomes 6, 17, and 18, and gains of chromosome 20. Structural abnormalities were frequent, with 1p, 2p, 3p, 4q, 6q, 7q, 11q, and 17p recurrently involved. Results of this study were combined with karyotypes of 19 other primary adenocarcinomas of the pancreas reported in the literature. The combined data involving 117 breakpoints suggest that careful analysis of chromosome 20, proximal 1q, 6q, proximal 8p, and proximal 17p could be productive in defining genes involved in adenocarcinoma of the pancreas.

The purpose of this study was to determine if fluorescence in situ hybridization for the Y-chromosome can be used to detect cells of recipient origin in allografted hearts following cardiac transplantation. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections of coronary arteries from two hearts surgically explanted from heart transplant recipients undergoing retransplantation because of accelerated arteriosclerosis were examined by fluorescence in situ hybridization for the presence of cells containing the Y-chromosome using a biotinylated Y-chromosome cocktail probe. In both cases, the recipients were male and the original donor hearts were obtained from female donors. Hybridization was detected in cells morphologically recognizable as infiltrating lymphocytes, macrophages, and mast cells, establishing that these cells in the donor hearts were of recipient origin. In contrast, hybridization was not detected in cardiac myocytes, in vascular smooth muscle cells, or in the majority (>95%) of endothelial cells, suggesting that these cells were of donor origin. Although hybridization was detected in rare flattened cells lining vascular lumina, these cells did not stain for factor VIII, suggesting that they were, in fact, flattened inflammatory cells and not endothelial cells. These results demonstrate that, when the recipient and donor are of the opposite sex, fluorescence in situ hybridization for the Y-chromosome can be used to detect graft chimerism in transplanted hearts.
