结直肠腺瘤危险因素

目的 研究结直肠腺瘤发生相关的危险因素,为结直肠早癌病变的筛查及诊疗提供预警信息。方法 选取2014年1月至2020年6月于河北医科大学第二医院行结肠镜检查经病理诊断为结直肠腺瘤的患者1 126例作为病例组,以同期行结肠镜检查结果阴性的患者1 800例作为对照组。收集患者性别、年龄、吸烟史、饮酒史、排便习惯(正常、腹泻、便秘、腹泻与便秘交替)、总胆固醇及甘油三酯水平等资料。进行多因素Logistic回归分析,探究上述因素对结直肠腺瘤发生的影响。为了进一步排除混杂因素的干扰,组间1∶1匹配,进行多因素条件Logistic回归分析,探究结直肠腺瘤发生的独立危险因素。结果 多因素Logistic回归分析显示,性别、年龄、饮酒史、吸烟史、排便习惯、总胆固醇和甘油三酯水平为结直肠腺瘤发生的独立危险因素(P<0.05)。多因素条件Logistic回归分析显示,排便习惯及甘油三酯水平是结直肠腺癌发生的独立危险因素,慢性腹泻、慢性便秘患者发生结直肠腺瘤的风险高于排便习惯正常者(P<0.05),甘油三酯水平较高患者发生结直肠腺瘤的风险高于甘油三酯水平正常者(P<0.05)。结论 排便习惯及甘油三酯水平是结直肠腺瘤发生的独立危险因素,慢性腹泻、慢性便秘、甘油三酯升高者发生结直肠腺瘤风险更高。     

HIV/AIDS患者结核潜伏感染的影响因素研究

背景 结核病是导致人免疫缺陷病毒/获得性免疫缺陷综合征（HIV/AIDS）患者死亡的首要原因，而HIV感染也是导致结核潜伏感染（LTBI）发展为结核病的主要危险因素。因此，对HIV/AIDS患者进行LTBI筛查和治疗是预防该类人群结核病的发生从而减少其死亡的重要举措。 目的 对宁夏回族自治区银川市市区内HIV/AIDS患者进行LTBI筛查，并分析其影响因素，识别高危人群，为HIV/AIDS患者结核病的预防性治疗提供科学依据。 方法 选取2021年3—8月于宁夏回族自治区银川市市区内定点管理单位治疗的546例HIV/AIDS患者为研究对象。通过现场问卷调查及查阅患者管理档案的方式收集HIV/AIDS患者的一般资料，其中一般人口学特征包括性别、年龄、民族、学历、婚姻状况、家庭人均年收入、职业类型、体质指数（BMI）、吸烟情况、饮酒情况等；临床资料包括慢性病患病情况、与结核病患者密切接触情况、HIV/AIDS确诊时长、抗病毒治疗时长、合并其他感染情况、近期CD4+ T淋巴细胞计数（CD4）等。通过结核菌素皮肤试验（TST）对研究对象进行LTBI筛查，根据TST结果将546例HIV/AIDS患者分为非LTBI组（TST阴性413例）和LTBI组（TST阳性133例）。比较两组患者的一般资料，采用多因素Logistic回归分析探讨HIV/AIDS患者发生LTBI的影响因素，并利用R软件建立限制性立方样条模型拟合CD4与LTBI风险之间的量效关系。 结果 银川市市区内HIV/AIDS患者的TST阳性率为24.4%。已婚〔OR=0.544，95%CI（0.321，0.922），P<0.05〕是HIV/AIDS患者发生LTBI的保护因素；吸烟〔OR=1.919，95%CI（1.213，3.037），P<0.05〕、与结核病患者有过密切接触〔OR=11.100，95%CI（2.889，42.648），P<0.05〕是HIV/AIDS患者发生LTBI的危险因素。限制性立方样条模型拟合结果显示，HIV/AIDS患者的CD4与LTBI风险呈近似"n"形的非线性关系（非线性检验χ2=29.080，P<0.001）。 结论 应重点关注HIV/AIDS患者中未婚、吸烟、与结核病患者有过密切接触人群LTBI的发生情况，并及时进行预防性治疗；对于CD4较低的患者，建议采用多种方法进行LTBI筛查。     

Regeneration in anamniotes was replaced by regengrow and scarring in amniotes after land colonization and the evolution of terrestrial biological cycles

An evolutionary hypothesis explaining failure of regeneration among vertebrates is presented. Regeneration derives from postembryonic processes present during the life cycles of fish and amphibians that include larval and metamorphic phases with broad organ reorganizations. Developmental programs imprinted in their genomes are re-utilized with variations also in adults for regeneration. When vertebrates colonized land adopting the amniotic egg, some genes driving larval changes, and metamorphosis were lost and new genes evolved, further limiting regeneration. These included neural inhibitors for maintaining complex nervous systems, behavior and various levels of intelligence, and adaptive immune cells. The latter, that in anamniotes are executioners of metamorphic reorganization, became intolerant to embryonic-oncofetal-antigens impeding organ regeneration, a process that requires de-differentiation of adult cells and/or expansion of stem cells where these early antigens are formed. The evolution of terrestrial lifecycles produced vertebrates with complex bodies but no longer capable to regenerate their organs, mainly repaired by regengrow. Efforts of regenerative medicine to improve healing in humans should determine the diverse developmental pathways evolved between anamniotes and amniotes before attempting genetic manipulations such as the introduction of “anamniote regenerative genes” in amniotes. This operation may determine alteration in amniote developmental programs leading to teratomes, cancer, or death.     

Modifiable lifestyle factors and cognitive reserve: A systematic review of current evidence

This systematic review aims to summarize cognitive reserve (CR) evaluation approaches and to examine the role of seven selected modifiable lifestyle factors (diet, smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, cognitive leisure activity, sleep, and meditation) in mitigating the impacts of age- or disease-related brain changes on cognition. Eighteen population-based English empirical studies were included. We summarize the study designs and identify three CR models that were broadly used in these studies, including a residual model assessing lifestyle factors in relation to unexplained variance in cognition after accounting for brain markers, a moderation model testing whether lifestyle factors moderate the relationship between brain status and cognition, and a controlling model examining the associations between lifestyle factors and cognition when controlling for brain measures. We also present the findings for the impact of each lifestyle factor. No studies examined diet, sleep, or meditation, and only two studies focused on smoking and alcohol consumption each. Overall, the studies suggest lifestyle activity factors (physical and cognitive leisure activities) may contribute to CR and attenuate the damaging impact of brain changes on cognition. Standardized measurements of lifestyle factors and CR are needed, and mechanisms underlying CR need to be further addressed as well.     

Metastatic adult-type non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas in children and adolescents: A cohort study from the European paediatric Soft tissue sarcoma Study Group

Background

Limited data exist on the clinical behavior of pediatric non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas (NRSTS) with distant metastases at onset, and a clear standard of care has not yet been defined.

Methods

This cohort study reports on pediatric adult-type metastatic NRSTS enrolled in two concurrent prospective European studies, i.e., the randomized BERNIE study and the single-arm MTS 2008 study developed by the European paediatric Soft tissue sarcoma Study Group. Treatment programs were originally designed for patients with metastatic rhabdomyosarcoma, i.e., nine courses of multidrug chemotherapy (with or without bevacizumab in the BERNIE study), followed by 12 cycles of maintenance therapy, whereas radiotherapy and/or surgery (on primary tumor and/or metastases) were delayed until after seven courses of chemotherapy had been administered.

Results

The study included 61 patients <21 years old treated from July 2008 to December 2016. The lung was the site of metastases in 75% of the cases. All patients received multi-agent chemotherapy, 44% had local therapy to primary tumor, and 18% had treatment of metastases. Median time to progression/relapse was 6 months. A high rate of tumor progression was observed during the initial part of the chemotherapy program. With a median follow-up of 41.5 months (range, 2–111 months), 3-year event-free survival and overall survival were 15.4% (95% confidence interval [CI], 7.6–25.7) and 34.9% (95% CI, 22.7–47.5), respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in outcome depending on the type of treatment administered.

Conclusions

The study confirmed the overall poor outcome for patients with metastatic NRSTS, whose treatment remains a challenge.

Plain Language Summary

• Pediatric non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas form a heterogeneous group of rare tumors.
• Although recent international studies have defined the standard of care for patients with localized disease, limited data are available on the clinical behavior of patients with distant metastases.
• This study on 61 metastatic cases treated on two prospective European protocols confirms that the chances of survival of such patients are often dismal and a standard treatment is still lacking.

     

基于贵州省人群队列的代谢综合征发病风险和影响因素分析

目的 探讨代谢综合征（MS）的发病风险和影响因素，为预防MS提供科学依据。方法 采取多阶段整群抽样方法，于2010年建立贵州省人群队列，排除基线MS患者后，共有7 136人进入MS随访队列，收集队列人群基线社会人口学信息、生活行为方式和生理指标，并于2016—2020年进行随访，最终纳入4 754人进行分析。采用COX比例风险模型分析MS的发病风险及其影响因素的HR（95% CI），并计算影响因素的人群归因危险度（PAF%）。同时根据基线人群的MS组分得分建立亚队列，分析亚队列人群MS的影响因素。结果 队列人群累计随访33 424.18人年，中位随访6.57年，新发MS 963人，MS发病密度为28.81/1 000人年。COX回归分析结果显示:年龄45～59岁（HR = 1.53，95%CI:1.32～1.77）、年龄≥60岁（HR = 1.53，95%CI:1.27～1.86）、城市（HR = 1.71，95%CI:1.47～1.99）、吸烟（HR = 1.22，95%CI:1.01～1.48）、每日油摄入＞30 g（HR = 1.16，95%CI:1.01～1.34）、每日盐摄＞6 g（HR = 1.22，95%CI:1.05～1.42）、静态时间≥4 h/d（HR = 1.16，95%CI:1.02～1.32）、超重（HR = 1.66，95%CI:1.44～1.92）、肥胖（HR = 2.27，95%CI:1.71～3.02）、静息心率70～80次/min（HR = 1.32，95%CI:1.11～1.58）和 ＞80次/min（HR = 1.28，95%CI:1.07～1.54)是MS的危险因素，其PAF%分别为17.47%、11.32%、19.52%、5.89%、11.33%、13.66%、7.01%、12.91%、5.30%、17.68%、13.92%，文化程度升高（HR = 0.75，95%CI:0.68～0.83）和饮茶行为（HR = 0.82，95%CI:0.71～0.95）是MS的保护因素，其PAF%分别为16.21%和6.97%。亚队列研究结果与总体结果相似。结论 不健康的生活方式和超重、肥胖、静息心率升高是MS的影响因素，应将中老年人和城市居民作为预防MS的重点人群，采取相应措施控制烟草消费、油盐摄入，维持正常体重和适当心率，提高人群知识水平，保持饮茶行为，预防MS发生。     

芦山地震5年后雅安市高血压患者心理卫生问题检出率及其影响因素

目的 了解芦山地震5年后雅安市高血压患者心理卫生问题检出率及其影响因素，为促进地震灾区高血压患者心理健康提供参考。方法 采用分层整群随机抽样方法，于2018年12月选取雅安市高血压患者800例作为研究对象。采用自编居民基本信息调查表收集患者的基本资料，采用12项一般健康问卷（GHQ-12）评定患者近期是否存在心理卫生问题，采用Logistic回归分析其影响因素。结果 回收有效问卷744份（93.00%），检出存在心理卫生问题者79例（10.62%）。单因素分析结果显示，不同婚姻状况（P?0.01）、家庭人均月收入（P=0.012）、是否接受社会救助（χ²=25.194，P?0.01）的高血压患者心理卫生问题检出率差异均有统计学意义。Logistic回归分析显示，未婚/分居/离异/丧偶（OR=3.879，P=0.015）以及接受社会救助（OR=4.705，P?0.01）是高血压患者存在心理卫生问题的危险因素。结论 雅安市高血压患者心理卫生问题检出率较低，未婚/分居/离异/丧偶者以及接受社会救助的高血压患者心理卫生问题可能更突出。
