Abstract
Background This study evaluates the efficacy of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) response as a surrogate marker for determining recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) who undergo salvage hepatectomy following conversion therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) and anti-PD-1 antibody-based regimen. Methods This multicenter retrospective study included 74 patients with uHCC and positive AFP (>20 ng/mL) at diagnosis, who underwent salvage hepatectomy after treatment with TKIs and anti-PD-1 antibody-based regimens. The association between AFP response-defined as a ≥ 80% decrease in final AFP levels before salvage hepatectomy from diagnosis-and RFS post-hepatectomy was investigated. Results AFP responders demonstrated significantly better postoperative RFS compared to non-responders (P<0.001). The median RFS was not reached for AFP responders, with 1-year and 2-year RFS rates of 81.3% and 70.8%, respectively. In contrast, AFP non-responders had a median RFS of 7.43 months, with 1-year and 2-year RFS rates at 37.1% and 37.1%, respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified AFP response as an independent predictor of RFS. Integrating AFP response with radiologic tumor response facilitated further stratification of patients into distinct risk categories: those with radiologic remission experienced the most favorable RFS, followed by patients with partial response/stable disease and AFP response, and the least favorable RFS among patients with partial response/stable disease but without AFP response. Sensitivity analyses further confirmed the association between AFP response and improved RFS across various cutoff values and in patients with AFP ≥ 200 ng/mL at diagnosis (all P<0.05). Conclusion The "20-80" rule based on AFP response could be helpful for clinicians to preoperatively stratify the risk of patients undergoing salvage hepatectomy, enabling identification and management of those unlikely to benefit from this procedure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To assess the perioperative safety, oncological outcomes, and determinants influencing the oncological outcomes of salvage liver resection for initially unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) rendered resectable through transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and anti-PD-1 antibodies (α-PD-1). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed data from 83 consecutive patients across six tertiary hospitals who underwent salvage liver resection for initially unresectable HCC following conversion by TACE combined with TKIs and α-PD-1, emphasizing perioperative and oncological outcomes. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was employed to discern independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence-free survival (RFS). RESULTS The median operative duration was 200 min, with a median blood loss of 400 ml. Intraoperative blood transfusions were necessitated for 27 patients. The overall perioperative complication rate was 48.2%, with a major complication rate of 16.9%. One patient died during the perioperative period due to postoperative liver failure. During the median follow-up period of 15.1 months, 24 patients experienced recurrence, with early and intrahepatic recurrence being the most common. Seven patients died during follow-up. Median RFS was 25.4 months, with 1- and 2-year RFS rates of 68.2% and 61.8%, respectively. Median overall survival was not reached, with 1- and 2-year overall survival rates of 92.2% and 87.3%, respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that pathological complete response (pCR) and intraoperative blood transfusion served as independent prognostic determinants for postoperative RFS. CONCLUSIONS Our study provides preliminary evidence suggesting that salvage liver resection may be an effective and feasible treatment option for patients with unresectable HCC who achieve resectability after conversion therapy with TACE, TKIs, and α-PD-1. The perioperative safety of salvage liver resection for these patients was manageable and acceptable. However, further research, particularly prospective comparative studies, is needed to better evaluate the potential benefits of salvage liver resection in this patient population.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the relationship between total prostate specific antigen (TPSA), free prostate specific antigen/total prostate specific antigen [RAT (F/T)], Gleason score, other factors and the whole-body bone plane imaging which was used to evaluate the bone metastasis of prostate cancer (PCa), and the diagnostic value of the abnormal concentration of bone imaging agent for single lesion. Methods: A retrospective analysis of (99)Tc(m)-methylene diphosphonate ((99)Tc(m)-MDP) whole-body bone imaging data of 93 patients with confirmed PCa in The First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from Jan 2018 to Jan 2019 was conducted. The bone metastasis was diagnosed by whole-body bone imaging. The factors related to PCa bone metastasis, including age, TPSA, RAT (F/T), Gleason score were analyzed by Chi-square test and logistic two-class regression. The optimal cut-off point of TPSA was defined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The region of interest (ROI) technique was used to repeatedly delineate the lesion (T) and the background area (NT) outside the bone and calculate the abnormal concentration value of bone imaging agent (T-NT)/NT, and the ROC curve was used to determine its diagnostic value. Results: The result of Chi-square analysis showed that Gleason score, TPSA and RAT (F/T) were associated with bone metastasis (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that TPSA and RAT (F/T) were associated with bone metastasis (P<0.01). TPSA >92.82 ng/ml was the best diagnosis for bone metastasis, and the sensitivity and specificity were 77.1% and 81.0%, respectively. There were 320 sites of high concentration of imaging agents in the whole-body bone imaging of PCa patients (194 in the metastatic group and 126 in the non-metastasis group). The (T-NT)/NT in the bone metastasis group was 7.11±0.29, the non-bone metastasis group was 2.69±0.20. (T-NT)/NT >3.52 was the best diagnosis for bone metastasis of single lesion, and the sensitivity and specificity were 86.1% and 80.2%, respectively. Conclusions: Gleason score, RAT (F/T) and TPSA are important risk factors of PCa bone metastasis. TPSA >92.82 ng/ml is the most supportive diagnosis for PCa bone metastasis. The abnormal concentration of bone imaging agent >3.52 owns the best diagnosis effect for the single lesion of PCa.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the feasibility of dynamic-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) and blood oxygen level-dependent MRI (BOLD-MRI) in assessing the hemodynamics and tumor aggressiveness during treatment. Methods: The colon cancer xenograft model was established in BALB/C nude mice with HCT116 cell line. Sixteen nude mice were randomly divided into treatment and control groups (aged 6 to 8 weeks, weighted 15 to 18 g, Certificate No. 11400700325797), which were treated with bevacizumab and saline by intraperitoneal injection on the 1st, 4th, 7th, 10th and 13th day. DCE-MRI and BOLD-MRI were performed before and on the 3th, 6th, 9th, 12th, and 15th day after treatment. The vascular maturity and microenvironment hypoxia were confirmed by pathology. Results: The tumor volume of treatment group was significantly smaller than that of control group after 15 days ((712±43) vs (1 051±112) mm(3),P<0.01).The measurements of K(trans) were (0.135±0.005),(0.147±0.006),(0.175±0.009),(0.161±0.006), (0.140±0.005),(0.116±0.008)/min (F=81.386, P<0.01); K(ep) were (0.788±0.030),(0.804±0.036),(0.983±0.059), (1.105±0.091),(0.840±0.047),(0.786±0.041)/min(F=45.901,P<0.01);Ve were (0.652±0.006), (0.559±0.026), (0.466±0.016), (0.286±0.027), (0.363±0.020), (0.246±0.033) (F=384.290, P<0.01) and R2* values were (24.813±0.961), (24.675±1.070), (21.425±1.371), (17.850±0.885), (24.613±0.640), (27.013±0.734)/s (F=89.323, P<0.01) showed different trends with time in the treatment group, and the differences were statistically significant. The K(trans) values and tumor vessel maturity index (VMI) were higher than baseline values during 3-12 d after treatment. CD31 positive staining rate and VMI had the strongest correlations with K(trans) values (r=0.854 and 0.795), followed by AUC(180) (r=0.750 and 0.808), Ve (r=0.744 and 0.712) and K(ep) values (r=0.729 and 0.758), all P<0.05. R2* value positively correlated with the positive staining rate of HIF-1α and fibronectin (r=0.810 and 0.816), all P<0.05. Conclusion: DCE-MRI and BOLD-MRI are adequate to observe the tumor perfusion and hypoxia during anti-vascular treatment, and the R2* value can predict the tumor metastatic potential during the process of vascular normalization.

Abstract
Objective:To investigate the expression of microtubuleassociated protein 1 light chain 3 beta(LC3) and eosinophil cationic protein in allergic rhinitis(AR) for further understanding of the pathogenesis of AR. Method: Twenty cases of normal nasal mucosa and 20 cases of AR nasal mucosa were collected. Histological changes of nasal mucosa were examined by hematoxylin and eosin(HE) staining. The expression of LC3 and ECP were measured by immunohistochemistry(IHC) and Western Blot(WB). Result: The tissue samples demonstrated a large number of eosinophils and lymphocytes infiltration in AR. IHC revealed that LC3 and ECP expression were higher in AR than in normal nasal mucosa(P<0.05). WB also showed that the relative expression levels of protein expression of LC3 and ECP were greater in AR than in controls. The expression level of LC3 was positively correlated with that of ECP protein in AR. Conclusion: LC3 and ECP were upregulated and positively correlated in AR, indicating that autophagy plays an important role in the toxicity of allergic rhinitis , which provides theoretical basis for the precise treatment of AR.

Abstract
Purpose: To develop and validate a decision aid to help make individualized estimates of tumor recurrence for patients with resected combined hepatocellular cholangiocarcinoma (CHC). Patients and methods: Risk factors of recurrence were identified in the derivation cohort of 208 patients who underwent liver resection between 1995 and 2014 at Zhongshan Hospital to develop a prediction score. The model was subsequently validated in an external cohort of 101 CHC patients using the C concordance statistic and net reclassification index (NRI). Results: On multivariate analysis, five independent predictors associated with tumor recurrence were identified, including sex, γ-glutamyl transferase, macrovascular invasion, hilar lymphoid metastasis and adjuvant transcatheter arterial chemoembolization. The prediction score was constructed using these 5 variables, with scores ranging from 0 to 5. A patient with a score of 0 had a predicted 1- and 5-year recurrence risk of 11.1% and 22.2%, respectively. In the validation cohort, the NRIs of prediction score vs American Joint Committee on Cancer 7th TNM staging system at 1-year and 5-year were 0.185 (95% CI, 0.090-0.279, P<0.001) and 0.425 (95% CI, 0.044-0.806, P=0.03), respectively. Conclusion: Our developed and validated prediction score might be a simple and reliable method in postoperative CHC patients and help clinicians identify candidates who may benefit from future adjuvant therapies.

Abstract
Glutathione S-transferase (GST) is an important member of phase II metabolic enzymes; GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 belong to three subfamilies of the GST enzyme. Polymorphisms in GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 could affect detoxification processes, and increase individuals' susceptibility to cancers. We aimed to investigate the association between GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 polymorphisms and the risk of gastric cancer in a Chinese population. In addition, we also examined the effect of gene-environmental interactions, and their effect on risk of this cancer. Between July 2013 and June 2015, we recruited 242 gastric cancer patients and 396 healthy controls for our study. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis was used to characterize genetic polymorphisms in GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1. We observed that the Val/Val genotype of GSTP1 was associated with increased risk of gastric cancer when compared with the Ile/Ile genotype (OR = 3.19, 95%CI = 1.84-5.56). Moreover, the Val allele of GSTP1 was associated with higher susceptibility to gastric cancer as compared with the Ile allele (OR = 1.52, 95%CI = 1.19-1.93). However, GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms did not affect the development of gastric cancer. In conclusion, our study indicated that GSTP1 Ile105Val, but not GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms, was associated with risk of gastric cancer.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is the fourth commonly diagnosed cancer and the second most frequent cause of cancer death worldwide. Genetic variations in ADH1B and ALDH2 may alter the function and activity of the corresponding enzymes, leading to differences in acetaldehyde exposure between drinkers. Cytochrome P4502E1 (CYP4502E1) is a phase I enzyme that plays an important role in metabolizing nitrosamine compounds and the bioactivation of procarcinogens. During the period of July 2013 to July 2015, 246 patients and 274 controls were enrolled from the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University. In the codominant model, the AA genotype of ALDH2 Glu487Lys significantly elevated the risk of gastric cancer in comparison with the GG genotype of ALDH2 Glu487Lys. In the recessive model, the AA genotype of ALDH2 Glu487Lys significantly increased the risk of gastric cancer compared to the GG+GA genotype (OR = 2.34 95%CI = 1.02-5.70). We found in the codominant model that individuals harboring the C2/C2 genotype of CYP4502E1 had a higher risk of developing gastric cancer than those with the C1/C1 genotype. In addition, in the recessive model, we found that the C2/C2 genotype correlated with an elevated risk of gastric cancer in comparison with the C1/C1+C1/C2 genotype (OR = 4.90, 95%CI = 2.04-13.51). However, no significant relationship was measured between ADH1B Arg47His and gastric cancer risk. In summary, the results of our study indicate that ALDH2 Glu487Lys and CYP4502E1 polymorphisms could be risk factors for the development of gastric cancer in the Chinese population.

Abstract
We distinguished the four OXA-type carbapenemase subgroup alleles present in 120 strains of Acinetobacter baumannii by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and investigated the distributions of the OXA subgroups in clinically isolated samples. Amplification of the OXA genes blaOXA-23, blaOXA-24, blaOXA-51, and blaOXA-58 was performed by multiplex PCR. Antibiotics susceptibility test was conducted for determine the sensitivity of the A. baumannii to clinical common used antibiotics by Kirby-Bauer method. Results revealed that 46 (51.69%) of the samples were positive for only the blaOXA51 gene and 41 (46.07%) were positive for both the blaOXA51 and blaOXA58 genes in the 89 isolates of A. baumannii. Among these, 45 were carbapenem-resistant and 44 carbapenem-sensitive. Strains containing either blaOXA51 or blaOXA58 showed resistance or sensitivity to carbapenems, respectively. A. baumannii isolated from intensive care units showed significantly higher resistance rate to Cefepime, Piperacillin-tazobactam, Amikacin, Ceftazidime, Cefotaxime, Sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim, and Gentamicin than those isolated from other departments (P < 0.05). In conclusion, we found that the presence of blaOXA-51 and blaOXA-58 appears to convey a mechanism of resistance or sensitivity to carbapenems, respectively, in A. baumannii clinical isolates.

Abstract
We investigated the correlation between the response to chemotherapy in patients and excision repair cross-complimenta-ry group 1 gene (ERCC1) and xeroderma pigmentosum complemen-tation group F gene (XPF) polymorphisms and the effect of these polymorphisms on the clinical outcome of gastric cancer. Samples from a total of 255 patients with newly diagnosed and histopatho-logically confirmed primary gastric cancer were collected in our study. The ERCC1 rs11615, ERCC1 rs2298881, XPF rs2276465, and XPF rs6498486 polymorphisms were genotyped. Among the 255 patients, the median follow-up time was 29.7 months. A total of 103 patients (40.4%) died from gastric cancer during the follow-up period. We observed that the XPF rs6498486 CC genotype and the XPF rs2276465 GG genotype were associated with response to che-motherapy, with odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals of 3.88 (1.23-16.07) and 2.66 (1.17-6.45), respectively. In the Cox propor-tional hazards model, patients carrying the ERCC1 rs11615 AA gen-otype and the XPF rs2276465 GG genotype showed only a 0.22- and 0.30-fold increased risk of death from gastric cancer. We found that the XPF rs6498486 and XPF rs2276465 polymorphisms are mark-ers of response to oxaliplatin/5-fluorouracil-based chemotherapy in gastric cancer patients.
