Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical value of combined detection of serum miR-378 and miR-21 in gastric cancer (GC). Methods: Eighty-seven patients with GC and 78 patients with colorectal cancer(CRC) from National Cancer Center/Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were selected, 83 individuals undergoing healthy physical examination were selected as the healthy controls. The levels of serum miR-378 and miR-21 were detected by quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) (result data were transformed as log2 for analysis). Results: Relative expression levels of miR-378 in the serum were -1.24, -3.25 and -2.73 in healthy controls, GC and CRC patients, respectively. Compared with the healthy controls, the levels of serum miR-378 were significantly decreased in GC and CRC patients (both P<0.05). Relative expression levels of miR-21 in the serum were 0.11, 2.34 and 2.47 in healthy controls, GC and CRC patients, respectively. Compared with the healthy controls, the levels of serum miR-21 were significantly up-regulated in GC and CRC patients (both P<0.05). Moreover, the serum level of miR-378 in GC patients was inversely associated with tumor clinical stage (P<0.05). However, the level of miR-21 showed no significant differences among patients with different clinical and pathological characteristics (all P>0.05). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity and specificity of miRNA-378 to diagnose GC was 0.770, 82.0% and 66.0%, respectively, and were 0.900, 85.0%, and 88.0% of miR-21, respectively. The AUC, sensitivity and specificity of combined detection of serum miR-378 and miR-21 to diagnose GC were 0.930, 92.0% and 87.0%, respectively, while the AUC of combined detection of serum CEA and CA-199 was 0.767, the AUC of combined all of the four factors was 0.946. Conclusion: The combined detection of serum miR-378 and miR-21 have a certain effect on diagnosis of GC.

Abstract
Objective:To study the clinical features of patients with recurrent benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) and to analyze potential related factors of recurrences.Method:Eighty patients who suffered recurrent BPPV were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into three groups: young group (21 cases), middle-aged group (25 cases) and old-aged group (34 cases). Theclinical data including age, gender, pathological pattern and canal type of BPPV were collected. We further analyzed the efficacy of repositioning treatment for recurrent BPPV.Result:In this study, there are 62 cases of primary BPPV(77.50%) and 18 cases of secondary BPPV(22.50%). In patients with recurrent BPPV, the laterior semicircular canal BPPV and posterior semicircular canals BPPV were the most common, and there was no differences on the aspects of age and gender in the two groups of patients with recurrent HSC BPPV and PSC BPPV (P>0.05).Compared with the primary diagnosis, we found that 48.75% cases relapsed in the same semicircular canals, 21.25% cases relapsed in other canals of the same ear, and 30.00% cases relapsed in a different ear. In this study, 96.25% patients with recurrent BPPV were cured in a month and one-time reset success rate was 56.25%.Conclusion: The age, gender, pathological pattern and canal type show certain clinical features of recurrent BPPV. The evidence of long term of recurrence course and high variability of problematic location support the approval opinion based on new otolith.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Entecavir (ETV) is commonly used to treat chronic hepatitis B (CHB) in China. However, certain percentages of e-Antigen (HBeAg) positive CHB patients do not respond to ETV therapy. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether the killer immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) genes were associated with seroconversion in HBeAg positive CHB responder patients treated with ETV. METHODS Polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) method was performed to genotype KIR genes in 200 healthy controls and 198 HBeAg-positive CHB patients which 59 were defined as the complete response group (CRG) to the treatment with ETV and 139 were defined as null or partial response group (NPRG). RESULTS The frequencies of KIR2DS2 and KIR2DS3 were significantly higher (P=0.030, OR=1.57,95%CI=2.36-1.05 and P=0.018, OR=1.773,95%CI=2.77-1.13, respectively), while, the frequencies of KIR2DL3, KIR2DS1 and KIR3DS1 were significantly lower (P=0.038, OR=0.525, 95%CI=0.96-0.29,and P=0.031, OR=0.640, 95%CI =0.95-0.43, and P=0.035, OR=0.641, 95%CI=0.96-0.43, respectively) in HBeAg-positive CHB patients than those in healthy controls. The frequency of KIR2DS3 gene was significantly higher in NPRG than that in CRG (P=0.018, OR=0.402, 95%CI=0.83-0.20). The frequencies of KIR2DL3 and KIR3DS1 genes were significantly higher in CRG than those in NPRG (P=0.019, OR=3.625, 95%CI=10.83-1.21 and P=0.041, OR=1.949, 95%CI=3.65-1.04, respectively). CONCLUSION Patients with KIR2DS3 might have negative responses to anti-HBV therapy with ETV and patients with KIR2DL3 and KIR3DS1 might have advantage in the therapy with ETV.

Abstract
Background The long non-coding RNA H19 plays a crucial role in solid tumor initiation and progression. However, the potential role of H19 and its clinical significance in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remain largely elusive. Methods H19 expression was detected by qPCR, and clinical significance in AML patients was further analyzed. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) data for AML were used as validation cohorts. The roles of H19 in cell proliferation and apoptosis were determined by cell proliferation assay and flow cytometry analysis. Results H19 expression was significantly increased in AML patients but not associated with embedded miR-675 expression. Moreover, H19 overexpression was not dependent on the methylation pattern in H19 differentially methylated region/imprinting control region. Strong association was observed between H19 overexpression and patients’ characteristics including sex, higher white blood cells, older age, and intermediate karyotype, FLT3-ITD, and DNMT3A mutations. In addition, H19 overexpression correlated with lower complete remission (CR) rate and shorter overall survival, and further confirmed by multivariate analyses. Importantly, the prognostic effect of H19 expression was validated by TCGA and GEO data. In the follow-up of patients, H19 expression in CR phase was lower than diagnosis time and returned at relapse time. Loss-of-function experiments showed that H19 exhibited anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects in leukemic cell HL60. Furthermore, H19 expression was positively correlated with potential downstream gene ID2 in AML. Conclusions Our findings revealed that methylation-independent H19 was a prognostic and predictive biomarker in AML, and H19/ID2 played crucial roles in leukemogenesis with potential therapeutic target value.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The liver-enriched microRNA-122 (miR-122) plays a crucial role in pathogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with prognostic value. Recently, miR-122 was also found to be related to many other cancers besides HCC. However, less study determined miR-122 expression and its clinical significance in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). METHODS Real-time quantitative PCR was performed to detect the level of bone marrow (BM) miR-122 in de novo AML patients. The clinical significance of miR-122 expression in AML was further investigated. RESULTS Among whole-cohort AML, lower expression of BM miR-122 was associated with male patients, higher hemoglobin and favorable-karyotypes (P = 0.038, 0.006, and 0.038, respectively). Among cytogenetically normal AML (CN-AML), lower expression of BM miR-122 was correlated with DNMT3A wild type (P = 0.043). Moreover, patients with lower expression of BM miR-122 presented lower complete remission (CR) rate and shorter overall survival (OS) than those with higher expression of BM miR-122 in CN-AML (P = 0.025 and 0.013, respectively). Cox regression analyses further confirmed the prognostic value of BM miR-122 expression in CN-AML (P = 0.024). In follow-up patients, BM miR-122 expression level in CR time was increased compared to diagnosis time, and was returned to primary level when in relapse time again (P = 0.062 and 0.049, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicated that lower expression of BM miR-122 acted as an independent risk factor for OS in CN-AML.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the individual and combined influences of smoking and alcohol consumption on lipid profile in male adults in northwest rural China. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. METHODS In total, 4614 subjects were enrolled in the cross-sectional study, performed between 2008 and 2012. The present study examined males aged ≥18 years from northwest rural China (n = 707). Data on current smoking and drinking status were collected. Logistic regression was used to estimate the individual and combined influences of smoking and alcohol consumption on lipid profile. Age, ethnic group, educational background, smoking (or alcohol consumption), waist circumference, body mass index, blood pressure and fasting blood glucose were adjusted as confounders. RESULTS Total cholesterol (TC)/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio, triglycerides (TG)/HDL-C ratio, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)/HDL-C ratio and visceral adiposity index (VAI) were significantly higher in smokers than in non-smokers, whereas HDL-C was lower in smokers. TG/HDL-C ratio, LDL-C/HDL-C ratio, TG, lipid accumulation product and VAI were significantly higher in drinkers than non-drinkers. After adjustment for confounders, significant relationships were observed between smoking status and any dyslipidemia, low HDL-C and high VAI (odds ratios [ORs]: 2.53 [95% confidence interval {CI}: 1.25-5.15], 6.13 [95% CI: 2.84-13.25] and 4.39 [95% CI: 2.02-9.54], respectively). The OR for any dyslipidaemia was 1.94 (95% CI: 1.09-3.48) for subjects who smoke and drank alcohol compared with subjects who did not smoke or drink alcohol. CONCLUSIONS Abnormalities in lipid profile are correlated with smoking and alcohol consumption, which calls for intervention strategies to prevent dyslipidaemia and control risk factors for cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the role of PRDM1 gene inactivaion in the regulation of C-MYC in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and to explore the correlation of its immunophenotype and prognosis. Methods: 100 cases paraffin-embedded DLBCL tissues were collected from January 2009 to December 2015 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University along with 20 cases of reactive proliferative lymph nodes as control. Immunohistochemical methods were used to detect the expression of CD20, CD10, MUM1, Ki-67, bcl-6, PRDM1/Blimp1, C-MYC and PAX5 protein. The tumors were classified into two subtypes according to Hans classification.The expression of PRDM1 and C-MYC gene in tumor group and control group was detected by reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and the relationship between PRDM1 and C-MYC gene was analyzed.OCI-LY1 (GCB subtype) and OCI-LY3 (non-GCB subtype) cell lines were transfected with small interfering RNA by cationic liposome reagent transfection, and the expression of C-MYC in the transfected cell lines was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the prognostic significance of PRDM1/Blimp1 and C-MYC at protein and mRNA levels. Results: There were 27 cases of GCB subtype and 73 cases of non-GCB subtype according to Hans classification. The positive expression of Blimp1 in DLBCL group and proliferative lymph nodes in control group was seen in 26(26.0%) and 20 cases(100%), respectively. There were 58 cases with high expression of PRDM1 at mRNA level, including 22 cases of GCB subtype and 36 cases non-GCB subtype, and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.004). There were differences in PRDM1 gene expression between the two immunological subtypes, serum lactate dehydrogenase (serum LDH) level, presence of B symptoms, tumor primary sites and other clinical pathological parameters, while C-MYC expression was different in gender, IPI score, and serum LDH levels. Upon PRDM1/Blimp1 gene silencing in the two cell lines, C-MYC protein and gene expression were up-regulated in the transfection group, compared with the blank control group and negative control group by reverse transcription PCR and Western blot analyses. Moreover, PRDM1 expression was significantly associated with C-MYC(χ(2)=7.648, P=0.006) at mRNA level. Conclusion: The up-regulation of C-MYC gene expression induced by PRDM1 inactivation in DLBCL may play an important role for the development of DLBCL.PRDM1 protein and mRNA are associated with immunophenotyping and PRDM1 mRNA is a marker of poor prognosis.

Abstract
Activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling played a crucial role in tumorigenesis, and β-catenin (CTNNB1) overexpression has been identified in numerous solid tumors. The present study was designed to determine CTNNB1 expression and its clinical significance in Chinese de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. Real-time quantitative PCR was carried out to detect the pattern of CTNNB1 expression in 140 AML patients and 46 controls. The level of CTNNB1 transcript in AML patients was significantly up-regulated compared with controls (P < 0.001). CTNNB1high patients showed significantly older age than CTNNB1low patients (P < 0.05). The frequency of high CTNNB1 expression was significantly observed in patients with intermediate/poor karyotypes. CTNNB1high patients had a significantly lower complete remission (CR) rate than CTNNB1low patients (P = 0.004). Among cytogenetically normal AML (CN-AML), CTNNB1high patients presented significantly shorter overall survival (OS, P = 0.004) and leukemia-free survival (LFS, P = 0.038) than CTNNB1low patients. Multivariate analysis confirmed that CTNNB1 expression was an independent prognostic factor for OS among CN-AML. Moreover, CTNNB1 expression level significantly decreased after CR stage (P = 0.032) and increased in relapsed stage (P = 0.015). Our findings suggest that CTNNB1 is overexpressed and confers a poor prognosis in AML, and could be used as a biomarker in monitoring disease recurrence.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the demographic characteristics, clinical features, diagnosis and treatment of patients with gout in China. Methods: Clinical data of 6 814 patients with gout from 100 hospitals in 27 provinces, municipalities or autonomous regions in China were collected and analyzed. Results: (1) The ratio of male to female in patients with gout was 14.7∶1. The mean age of onset was (48.8±15.1) years old. Mean serum urate level was (526.7±132.3) μmol/L. Patients' education background was of U-shaped distribution; (2) Hypertension was the most common comorbidity [15.8%(1 079/6 814)], then overweight or obesity [51.9%(3 536/6 814)]; (3) Alcohol and high-purine food intake were dominant triggering factors in men. The diagnosis of gout was made after onset in majority of patients with cardinal symptom arthralgia. Most patients had the disease less than 5 years, and the longer the course, the more flares in the previous year of entry; (4) Febuxostat was the mostly used urate-lowering medication. 20.7%(1 412/6 814), 10.8%(739/6 814) and 3.9%(265/6 814) of patients were followed up in 4 weeks, 12 weeks and 24 weeks after registration, and 18.9%(267/1 412), 29.1%(215/739) and 38.1%(101/265) of them reached the control target of serum urate levels, respectively. After treatment, patients' liver function was not affected, but serum creatinine levels decreased significantly. Conclusions: The proportion of gout patients who reach target serum urate level is very low. Further steps including education and survey need to be carried on.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accumulating studies have linked the disruptions of microRNA-10 (miR-10) to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with NPM1 mutation. However, miR-10 expression and its clinical implication in AML remain poorly defined. Although a recent report showed high serum level of miR-10a was associated with adverse prognosis in AML, herein, we found bone marrow (BM) miR-10 overexpression was not a prognostic biomarker in AML. METHODS BM miR-10 expression was examined by real-time quantitative PCR in BM mononuclear cells in 115 de novo AML patients and 45 controls. RESULTS BM miR-10 (miR-10a/b) expression was significantly up-regulated in AML patients, and was positively correlated with each other. Overexpression of miR-10a was associated with lower percentage of BM blasts, whereas miR-10b overexpression tended to correlate with higher percentage of BM blasts. Importantly, miR-10a overexpression was significantly associated with FAB-M3/t(15;17) subtypes and NPM1 mutation, meanwhile, overexpression of miR-10b was correlated with NPM1 and DNMT3A mutations. However, miR-10a/b overexpression was not associated with complete remission rate, and did not have an impact on both leukemia free survival and overall survival time in non-M3 AML patients without NPM1 mutation. CONCLUSIONS BM miR-10 overexpression is associated with genetic events but not affects clinical outcome in AML.

Abstract
Dysregulation of ID proteins is a frequent event in various human cancers and has a direct role in cancer initiation, maintenance, progression and drug resistance. Our previous study has revealed ID1 expression and its prognostic value in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Herein, we further reported ID2 expression and its clinical significance in AML. Real-time quantitative PCR was performed to detect ID2 transcript level in bone marrow mononuclear cells of 145 de novo AML patients. ID2 expression was significantly up-regulated in AML patients compared with controls. ID2 overexpression occurred with the highest frequency in poor karyotype (10/17, 59%), lower in intermediate karyotype (35/83, 42%), and the lowest in favorable karyotype (7/40, 18%). Moreover, high ID2 expression correlated with lower complete remission (CR) rate, shorter overall survival, and acted as an independent prognostic biomarker in whole-cohort AML and non-M3-AML patients. Importantly, the prognostic value of ID2 expression in AML was validated by The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data. In the follow-up of patients, ID2 expression at CR phase was decreased than at the time of diagnosis, and was increased again at the time of relapse. These findings demonstrated that bone marrow ID2 overexpression was a frequent event in AML patients, and predicts poor chemotherapy response and prognosis.

Abstract
Previous study has revealed that H19 expression is required for efficient tumor growth induced by BCR-ABL in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Herein, we further determined H19 expression and its clinical implication in patients with CML. H19 expression and methylation were detected by real-time quantitative PCR and real-time quantitative methylation-specific PCR, and then clinical implication of H19 expression was further analyzed. H19 expression was significantly up-regulated in CML patients (p < 0.001). H19 expression with an area under receiver operating characteristic curve value of 0.824 might serve as a promising biomarker in distinguishing CML patients from controls. The patients with high H19 expression had a tendency of higher white blood cells and BCR-ABL transcript than those with low H19 expression. H19 overexpression occurred with the higher frequency in blast crisis stage (11/11, 100%), lower in accelerated phase (3/5, 60%), and chronic phase (42/62, 66%) stages. Moreover, paired patients during disease progression with increased BCR-ABL transcript also showed a significant upregulation of H19 expression. Meanwhile, H19 expression was decreased in follow-up patients who achieved complete molecular remission after tyrosine kinase inhibitors-based therapy. Epigenetic studies showed that H19 differentially methylated region/imprinting control region (DMR/ICR) was hypomethylated and associated with H19 expression in CML patients. Moreover, demethylation of H19 DMR/ICR reactivated H19 expression in K562 cells. Collectively, H19 overexpression, a frequent event in CML, was associated with higher BCR-ABL transcript involving in disease progression. Moreover, H19 DMR/ICR hypomethylation in CML may be one of the mechanisms mediating H19 overexpression.

Abstract
The prognostic value of RAS mutations has been systematically investigated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, clinical significance of RAS expressions in AML remains poorly determined. To explore the clinical significance, we analyzed KRAS and NRAS expressions in 143 de novo AML patients by real-time quantitative PCR. KRAS and NRAS expressions were significantly up-regulated in AML patients. KRAS and NRAS mutations were identified in 4% (6/143) and 8% (12/143) of these patients, respectively. However, no significant association was observed between RAS mutations and expressions. High KRAS expression was associated with older age, higher white blood cells, and a tendency of higher platelets, whereas high NRAS expression was only correlated with older age. Complete remission (CR) rate and overall survival of AML patients were adversely affected by KRAS overexpression, but not NRAS overexpression. Multivariate analysis revealed that KRAS acted as an independent prognostic predictor in cytogenetically normal AML (CN-AML). Moreover, the prognostic value of KRAS expression was validated using the published data from Gene Expression Omnibus datasets. In the follow-up patients, KRAS expression rather than NRAS expression in CR time tended to decrease compared to newly diagnosis time, and both KRAS and NRAS expressions were significantly increased when in relapse time. Our findings revealed that RAS overexpression and mutations were common events in AML with potential therapeutic target value. KRAS overexpression independent of RAS mutations conferred an adverse prognosis in CN-AML.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate macular retinal and choroidal thickness and blood flow change using optical coherence tomography angiography after posterior scleral reinforcement (PSR) surgery. Methods: Prospective study. Twenty eyes of 10 patients with high myopia were enrolled in this open-label, single-treatment group and prospective study. Radial lines and Angio retina (3 mm×3 mm) module were performed for 20 eyes using Angio-vue optical coherence tomography (Avanti, Optovue) without pupil dilation, and best corrected visual acuity, spherical equivalent and axial length were compared before and 60 days after surgery. Retinal and choroidal thickness was measured in the fovea, 1 mm superior, 1 mm inferior, 1 mm nasal and 1 mm temporal to the fovea. Flow area, flow density and flow index were recorded using self-provided software in the superficial retina layer, deep retina layer, outer retina layer and choroid capillary layer, respectively. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 16.0. Data that followed normal distribution were compared with paired two-sample t-test, while others were compared with Wilcoxon signed rank test. Results: Of the patients participating in this preliminary study, the mean age was (35.5±4.2) years, and 50% were female. No significant difference was found between before and 60 days after PSR surgery in best corrected visual acuity (t=0.99, P=0.33), spherical equivalent (t=-1.89, P=0.07) and axial length (t=0.2, P=0.08). The retinal thickness in the fovea was thinner (Z=-2.58, P=0.01), while there was no significant difference in the 1 mm superior (t=0.44, P=0.67) , 1 mm inferior (t=0.05, P=0.96) , 1 mm nasal (Z=0.87, P=0.64) and 1 mm temporal (Z=-0.78, P=0.99) to the fovea. No significant difference was found in choroidal thickness (t=-0.12, P=0.87; t=-0.25, P=0.81. t=0.53, P=0.61; t=-0.91, P=0.38. t=1.2, P=0.25) before and after surgery. The postoperative flow density in the superficial and deep retinal layers (48.18±4.56% and 31.47±5.11%) was significantly increased (t=2.66, P=0.02; t=3.16, P=0.01) compared with pre-operation (33.82±4.33% and 14.29±3.89%). The postoperative flow index in the superficial and deep retina layers (0.044±0.005 and 0.025±0.005) was significantly increased (t=2.59, P=0.02. t=2.95, P=0.01) compared with pre-operation (0.028±0.004 and 0.010±0.003). The other flow measurements showed no significant difference. Conclusion: Retinal thickness decreased, and flow density and index increased in the superficial and deep retinal layers after PSR surgery. This suggested blood flow improvement in the macular region after PSR surgery in high myopic eyes. (Chin J Ophthalmol, 2017, 53:39-45).

Abstract
Objective: To investigate PRDM1 gene methylation status, immune classification and their prognostic significance in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Methods: Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining for CD20, CD10, bcl-2, bcl-6, PRDM1/Blimp-1 and MUM1 was carried out in 100 cases of DLBCL specimens and 20 reactive lymphoid proliferation samples. All patients were classified into germinal center B cell-like (GCB) and activated B cell-like (ABC) subtype according to Hans' algorithmin. PRDM1 gene methylation was detected by methylation-specific PCR (MSP) and its relationship with clinicopathologic parameters was analyzed. OCI-Ly1 (GCB type) and OCI-Ly3 (ABC type) cell lines were transfected by Small interfering RNA(siRNA) with cationic lipid reagent transfection mediated, and the PRDM1/Blimp-1 expression in before and after transfected cell lines were detected with reverse transcription-PCR and Western blot methods. The relationship between PRDM1 gene methylation, clinicopathologic parameter and survival was analyzed using one-way analysis of variance. Results: One hundred patients were classified into 73 (73%) cases of GCB subtypes and 27 (27%) cases of ABC. PRDM1/Blimp-1 was expressed in 21 DLBCL and highly expressed in 20 reactive lymphoid proliferation. PRDM1 gene methylation was detected in 23% (23/100) of DLBCL, while no methylation was detected in all 20 reactive lymphoid proliferation. The difference of the PRDM1 methylation status between DLBCL and the control samples was statistically significant (P=0.004). However, there was no significant correlation between the PRDM1 gene methylation and clinicopathologic parameters (P>0.05). Reverse transcription-PCR and Western blot showed that PRDM1 gene expression was reduced in siRNA-induced group compared with blank control group and negative control group. One-way analysis of variance revealed that aged ≥60 years, performance status score above 3, and the presence of general symptoms were associated with significantly lower overall survival rate. Conclusions: PRDM1 gene silencing with aberrant CpG methylation is probably one of the critical events in the oncogenesis of DLBCL. This may have important implications as a candidate marker for diagnosis and targeted gene therapy. Meanwhile in vitro siRNA transfected OCI-Ly1 and OCI-Ly3 cell lines confirm that PRDM1 gene is a suppressor gene in DLBCL and may represent a novel therapeutic target.

Abstract
Objective: To study the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with persistent inflammation immunosuppression and catabolism syndrome (PICS) in ICU. Methods: A total of 126 patients admitted to ICU (ICU stay of more than 10 days, age≥18 years) between January 2014 to December 2014 were retrospectively studied.Data were collected from electronic medical records including demographics, underlying disease, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) score, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, laboratory parameters, ICU acquired infections and clinical outcome. Results: The overall incidence of PICS in ICU patients (ICU stay of more than 10 days) was 50.0%(63/126). There were no significant differences in baseline data such as gender, age, APACHEⅡscore, SOFA score and underlying diseases between the two groups(all P>0.05). Compared with the non-PICS group, there were more patients with gastrointestinal perforation in the PICS group (P=0.042), however, the medical or surgical admission did not differ between the two groups(P>0.05). During the stay in ICU, the PICS group showed a higher risk of developing acquired infections compared with the non-PICS group[PICS 63.5%(40/63) vs non-PICS 23.8%(15/63); P<0.001]. The infections were more caused by Candida in the PICS group than the non-PICS group [PICS 22.4%(11/49) vs non-PICS 2/17; P=0.003]. Moreover, the PICS group experienced longer stay in ICU[PICS(31.6±28.8) days vs non-PICS (20.4±11.3) days; P=0.0046] and higher ICU mortality [PICS 28.6%(18/63) vs non-PICS 6.3%(4/63), P=0.001]. Conclusion: PICS is a common manifestation of patients who stay in ICU more than 10 days, which is associated with high risk of ICU acquired infections, prolonged length of stay and high mortality.

Abstract
Dysregulation of NKD1 has been identified in several solid tumors. However, the status of NKD1 expression and its clinical implication in acute myeloid leukemia remain largely elusive. NKD1 transcript level in bone marrow mononuclear cells was detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction in 126 de novo acute myeloid leukemia patients and 30 controls. Clinical significance of NKD1 expression was obtained by the comparison between the patients with low and high NKD1 expression. NKD1 messenger RNA level was significantly decreased in acute myeloid leukemia patients compared with controls ( p = 0.019). There were no significant differences between patients with low and high NKD1 expression in sex, age, peripheral blood cells, bone marrow blasts, French-American-British/World Health Organization subtypes, and karyotypes/karyotypic classifications ( p > 0.05). Although no significant difference was observed in complete remission rate between NKD1low and NKD1high patients ( p > 0.05), Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that NKD1low patients showed shorter overall survival time than NKD1high patients in whole-cohort acute myeloid leukemia, non-M3 acute myeloid leukemia, and cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia ( p = 0.014, 0.063, and 0.020). Multivariate analyses disclosed the low NKD1 expression was an independent risk factor in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia patients (hazard ratio = 0.397, p = 0.017). Moreover, the prognostic value of NKD1 expression was confirmed by gene expression profile data in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia patients ( p = 0.028 and 0.011). NKD1 showed significantly increased level after induction chemotherapy achieved complete remission in follow-up paired acute myeloid leukemia patients ( p < 0.001). These findings indicated that reduced NKD1 expression is associated with unfavorable clinical outcome in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia.

Abstract
Objectives: To analyze RB1 gene mutation in retinoblastoma (RB) patients using gene capture technology. Methods: Experimental research. The clinical data of 17 RB patients were collected at Department of Ophthalmology, Peking University People's Hospital from June 2010 to Jun 2014. Peripheral blood samples of seventeen RB patients and their parents were collected and genomic DNA were extracted. DNA library from RB patients was mixed with designed gene capture probe of RB1 exons and its flanking sequences. The data were analyzed using bioinformatics software. To avoid the false positive, the abnormal sites were verified using the Sanger sequencing method. Results: Totally, there were 17 RB patients, including 12 males and 5 females, from 0.5 to 23 years old, average ages were (3.2±5.2) years old. Both eyes were involved in 6 patients. The other 11 cases were only one eye was attacked. Four RB patients were found to have germline mutations, among whom 2 had bilateral tumors and 2 had unilateral tumors. 2 novel missense mutations were identified, including 15(th) exon c.1408A>T (p. Ile470Phe) and c.1960G>C (p. Val654Leu) at 19(th) exon. No RB1 mutation was identified in any of their parents. We also identified 2 mutations reported previously. One is c.1030C>T termination mutation at 10(th) exon in a bilateral RB patients and his father, who was diagnosed with unilateral RB. The other is c.371-372delTA frame shift mutation at 3(rd) exon. No mutation was found in their parents. Conclusions: Two novel germline RB1 mutations were found using gene capture technology, which enriched RB1 mutations library.(Chin J Ophthalmol, 2017, 53: 455-459).

Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the effects of different sources and levels of methionine (Met) on Heat shock proteins HSP70 expression and protein carbonylation in liver, HSP70 expression and malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration in intestine under heat stress conditions during summer. A total of 720 (4 days old) Peking ducks were placed 20 per pen into six replicates for each of the six treatments with a 2 × 3 factorial arrangement, such that two sources of Met (DL-methionine [DLM] and DL-2-hydroxy-4-methylthiobutyrate [HMTBA] were supplemented at three different levels (0.05%, 0.20%, or 0.35% on as-fed basis respectively). The experiment was divided into a starter (day 4-16) and a grower (day 17-35) period. Diet supplemented with 0.35% Met significantly up-regulated the HSP70 mRNA expression in duodenum, jejunum and ileum on day 16 and 35 as well as in liver on day 35 (p < .05) of ducks. HMTBA-supplemented diets increased the HSP70 mRNA expression in duodenum, jejunum, ileum and liver on day 35 (p < .01). An increased MDA concentration was detected in jejunum of birds in 0.35% DLM-supplemented treatment on day 16 (p < .05). And decreased protein carbonylation concentration was found in DLM-supplemented treatment on day 16 (p < .01). The birds fed with 0.35% Met supplemental diet displayed lower hepatic protein carbonylation on day 16 (p < .05). In conclusion, supplementation of 0.35% Met in the duck diet showed up-regulated HSP70 expression in small intestine and liver, which may provide new perspective to the mechanism of Met function. At the same time, DLM supplemented in diet may ameliorate oxidative status of liver, while HMTBA supplementation may partially improve the intestinal oxidative status of Peking ducks.
