RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Lung cancer is the primary cause of cancer-related deaths in China. This study analysed the incidence and survival trends of lung cancer from 2011 to 2020 in Fujian Province, southeast of China, and provided basis for formulating prevention and treatment strategies. METHODS: The population-based cancer data was used to analyse the incidence of lung cancer between 2011 and 2020, which were stratified by sex, age and histology. The change of incidence trend was analysed using Joinpoint regression. The relative survival of lung cancer with onset in 2011-2014, 2015-2017 and 2018-2020 were calculated using the cohort, complete and period methods, respectively. RESULTS: There were 23,043 patients diagnosed with lung cancer in seven registries between 2011 and 2020, with an age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) of 37.7/100,000. The males ASIR increased from 51.1/100,000 to 60.5/100,000 with an annual percentage change (APC) of 1.5%. However, females ASIR increased faster than males, with an APC of 5.7% in 2011-2017 and 21.0% in 2017-2020. Compared with 2011, the average onset age of males and females in 2020 was 1.5 years and 5.9 years earlier, respectively. Moreover, the proportion of adenocarcinoma has increased, while squamous cell carcinoma and small cell carcinoma have decreased over the past decade. The 5-year relative survival of lung cancer increased from 13.8 to 23.7%, with a greater average increase in females than males (8.7% and 2.6%). The 5-year relative survival of adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and small cell carcinoma reached 47.1%, 18.3% and 6.9% in 2018-2020, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of lung cancer in Fujian Province is on the rise, with a significant rise in adenocarcinoma, a younger age of onset and the possibility of overdiagnosis. Thus, Fujian Province should strengthen the prevention and control of lung cancer, giving more attention to the prevention and treatment of lung cancer in females and young populations.

Purpose: The 5-year cancer survival rate among Chinese patients is lower than that among patients in developed countries and varies widely across geographic regions. The aim of this study was to analyse the 5-year relative cancer survival rate in southeastern China, between 2011 and 2021. Patients and Methods: We utilised population-based statistics from 12 cancer registries in Fujian, China. Study population data were up to date as of Dec 31, 2019, and survival outcome status was updated as of Dec 31, 2021. We used the ICD-10 and the ICD-O-3 to categorize all cancer cases. We analysed the 5-year relative survival for cancers combined and different cancer types stratified by sex, urban and rural areas, and age. Survival estimates were stratified according to calendar period (2011-13, 2014-15, 2016-18 and 2019-21). Results: Ultimately, a total of 160,294 cancer patients were enrolled in the study. In 2011-13, 2014-15, 2016-18 and 2019-21, the age-standardised 5-year relative survival for cancers combined were 29.1% (95% CI: 28.6-29.7), 31.5% (95% CI: 31.0-32.0), 36.8% (95% CI: 36.4-37.3) and 39.1% (95% CI: 38.7-39.6), respectively. The age-standardised 5-year relative survival for lung, prostate, larynx, colon-rectum, kidney and bone cancers increased 4.3%, 4.0%, 3.8%, 3.4%, 3.4% and 2.70%, respectively. Cancers with high 5-year relative survival rates (>60%) in 2019-21 included thyroid, testis, breast, bladder, cervix, prostate and uterus cancers. The 5-year survival rates in 2019-2021 was higher for females than for males (47.8% vs 32.0%) and higher in urban areas than in rural areas (41.7% vs 37.1%). Relative survival rates decreased with increasing age. Conclusion: The 5-year cancer survival in Fujian Province increased between 2011 and 2021 but remained at a low level. Building a strong primary public health system may be a key step in reducing the cancer burden in Fujian Province.
RESUMO
CircRNAs have been shown to be involved in the development of certain diseases, but their application in prehypertension and hypertension remains unclear. We aimed to explore the potential role of circ_0000284 in revealing the molecular regulatory mechanisms of prehypertension and hypertension. We enrolled a total of 100 patients with normal blood pressure, 100 patients with prehypertension and 100 patients with hypertension. The expression of circ_0000284 among the groups was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRTâPCR). Multivariate logistic models were constructed combining conventional risk factors with circ_0000284. A receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to analyze the diagnostic value of circRNAs in the clinical model. Spearman correlation was used to analyze the correlation of circ_0000284 and the biochemical characteristics of all subjects. The results showed that circ_0000284 was differentially expressed among the normal blood pressure group, prehypertensive group and hypertensive group and showed a significantly upregulated trend in the progression to hypertension (P < 0.05). The ROC curve revealed a high diagnostic ability of circ_0000284 in hypertension in the clinical model (AUC = 0.812). Circ_0000284 also presented a certain ability for early diagnosis of prehypertension (AUC = 0.628). Spearman correlation showed that circ_0000284 was positively correlated with Na and CKMB. Our study suggested that upregulated expression of circ_0000284 was an independent risk factor for prehypertension and hypertension. Circ_0000284 was a potential fingerprint for the early diagnosis of hypertension and distinguished the intermediate stage of hypertension development. Moreover, our study provided new insight into the correlation between circ_0000284 and cardiac injury in the progression to hypertension.

OBJECTIVES: To determine whether longitudinal trajectories of nighttime sleep duration and daytime napping duration are related to subsequent multimorbidity risk. To explore whether daytime napping can compensate for negative effects of short nighttime sleep. METHODS: The current study included 5262 participants from China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. Self-reported nighttime sleep duration and daytime napping duration were collected from 2011 to 2015. The 4-year sleep duration trajectories were conducted by group-based trajectory modeling. The 14 medical conditions were defined by self-reported physician diagnoses. Multimorbidity was diagnosed as participants with 2 or more of the 14 chronic diseases after 2015. Associations between sleep trajectories and multimorbidity were assessed by Cox regression models. RESULTS: During 6.69 years of follow-up, we observed multimorbidity in 785 participants. Three nighttime sleep duration trajectories and three daytime napping duration trajectories were identified. Participants with persistent short nighttime sleep duration trajectory had the higher risk of multimorbidity (hazard ratio = 1.37, 95% confidence interval: 1.06-1.77), compared with those with persistent recommended nighttime sleep duration trajectory. Participants with persistent short nighttime sleep duration and persistent seldom daytime napping duration had the highest risk of multimorbidity (hazard ratio = 1.69, 95% confidence interval: 1.16-2.46). CONCLUSIONS: In this study, persistent short nighttime sleep duration trajectory was associated with subsequent multimorbidity risk. Daytime napping could compensate for the risk of insufficient night sleep.

OBJECTIVE: Abnormal sleep duration and poor sleep quality were associated with multiple diseases. However, the association between sleep behavior (including sleep duration and quality) and multimorbidity among the elderly remains unclear. Thus, our study aimed to explore this association in the Chinese elderly. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study using data from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (2014 wave). Nineteen chronic diseases were used to measure multimorbidity. Self-reported nighttime sleep duration and sleep quality were used as exposures. Multivariate logistic regression analysis and stratification were used to explore the association between sleep behavior and multimorbidity in different groups. Restrictive cubic splines were used to examine the exposure-response relationship. RESULTS: Compared with those with nighttime sleep duration between 7 and 9 h, participants with shorter (<7 h) and longer (>9 h) sleep duration had a higher prevalence of multimorbidity (odds ratio [OR], 95% confidence interval [CI] were 1.38, 1.18-1.61 and 1.30, 1.09-1.56 respectively). Besides, poor sleep quality (OR = 2.25, 95% CI:1.82-2.72) and moderate sleep quality (OR = 1.35, 95% CI:1.16-1.58) were positively associated with multimorbidity. CONCLUSIONS: Although the role of sleep behavior in multimorbidity has not been fully understood, this study highlighted the importance of normal nighttime sleep duration and good sleep quality in preventing multimorbidity.

The COVID-19 pandemic may constitute an "obesogenic lifestyle" that results in exacerbating childhood obesity. However, studies investigating regional sociodemographic factors including different age groups or sexes in children with obesity are lacking. We aimed to clarify the high obesity prevalence populations of preschool children to provide a regional basis for children's health policy during the COVID-19 school closures. From May to September 2019, a total of 29,518 preschool children were included in a large sample, multicenter cross-sectional study to explore physical status in Fujian Province by stratified cluster random sampling. In October 2019 and October 2020, we also conducted a cross-sectional study exploring physical development including changes in height, weight, and BMI of 1688 preschool children in Fuzhou before and after the COVID-19 school closures. Student' s t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, or chi-square test was used to assess differences in physical development and overweight and obesity rates among preschool children before and after school closures. For regional factors, the weight of urban preschool children of all ages became higher after the outbreak (p (age 3-4) = 0.009; p (age 4-5) < 0.001; p (age 5-6) = 0.002). For sex factors, overweight and obesity in boys had a greater prevalence than in girls before and after the outbreak. In four age groups, overweight and obesity rates in the 5-year-old group (15.5% and 9.9%) were higher than before (11.4% and 6.0%). The weight and BMI of 4- to 5-year-old children also increased faster than before (p < 0.001). The COVID-19 pandemic has promoted the epidemic of childhood obesity. Living in urban/coastal (economically developed) areas, boys, and aged 4-6 years old may be a susceptible population to obesity development after the outbreak.

Several studies have reported an association between residential surrounding particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter ≤2.5 µm (PM2.5) and coronary heart disease (CHD). However, the underlying biological mechanism remains unclear. To fill this research gap, this study enrolled a residentially stable sample of 942 patients with CHD and 1723 controls. PM2.5 concentration was obtained from satellite-based annual global PM2.5 estimates for the period 1998-2019. MicroRNA microarray and pathway analysis of target genes was performed to elucidate the potential biological mechanism by which PM2.5 increases CHD risk. The results showed that individuals exposed to high PM2.5 concentrations had higher risks of CHD than those exposed to low PM2.5 concentrations (odds ratio = 1.22, 95% confidence interval: 1.00, 1.47 per 10 µg/m3 increase in PM2.5). Systolic blood pressure mediated 6.6% of the association between PM2.5 and CHD. PM2.5 and miR-4726-5p had an interaction effect on CHD development. Bioinformatic analysis demonstrated that miR-4726-5p may affect the occurrence of CHD by regulating the function of RhoA. Therefore, individuals in areas with high PM2.5 exposure and relative miR-4726-5p expression have a higher risk of CHD than their counterparts because of the interaction effect of PM2.5 and miR-4726-5p on blood pressure.

BACKGROUND: The present study aims to investigate the complete long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and messenger RNA (mRNA) expression profiles in Intracranial aneurysm (IA) patients and controls by RNA sequencing, which reveals the lncRNA with predictive value for IA risk. METHODS: The comprehensive lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles were detected by RNA-Seq in human IA walls and superficial temporal arteries (STAs), followed by bioinformatics analyses, such as GO analysis, KEGG pathway analysis, and CNC network construction. Subsequently, qRT-PCR was used to profile the expression levels of selected lncRNA (lncRNA ENST000000576153, lncRNA ENST00000607042, lncRNA ENST00000471220, lncRNA ENST00000478738, lncRNA MALAT1, lncRNA ENST00000508090 and lncRNA ENST00000579688) in 30 (small) or 130 (large) peripheral blood leukocytes, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression was utilized to analyze the effects of lncRNA on IA. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was further drawn to explore the value of lncRNA in predicting IA. RESULTS: Totally 900 up-regulated and 293 down-regulated lncRNAs, as well as 1297 up-regulated and 831 down-regulated mRNAs were discovered in sequencing. Enrichment analyses revealed that they were actively involved in immune/inflammatory response and cell adhesion/extracellular matrix. Co-expression analysis and further enrichment analyses showed that five candidate lncRNAs might participate in IA's inflammatory response. Besides, after controlling other conventional risk factors, multivariate logistic regression analysis disclosed that low expression of lncRNA ENST00000607042, lncRNA ENST00000471220, lncRNA ENST00000478738, lncRNA MALAT1 in peripheral blood leukocytes were independent risk factors for IA. LncRNA ENST00000607042 has superior diagnostic value for IA. CONCLUSIONS: This study reveals the complete lncRNAs expression profiles in IA. The inflammatory response was closely related to IA. Besides, lncRNA ENST00000607042 might be a novel biomarker for IA risk.
