Time-varying association of second primary malignancy and long-term survival outcomes in patients with head and neck cancer

A high risk of developing second primary malignancy (SPM) has been reported among head and neck cancer patients. Here, we aimed to statistically quantify the impact of SPM development on the survival of head and neck cancer patients. Our study was conducted using the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database to collect the data of 48 316 patients who received curative surgical resection for initial primary head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (IP-HNSCC) in 1975 to 2019. SPM diagnosis was treated as a time-varying covariate and multivariable Cox regression analysis was conducted to estimate the association between SPM development and survival, overall or by the subsite of IP-HNSCC. Of the included patients, 11 238 patients (23.3%) developed SPM during the follow-up period. A significant reduction in survival was observed among patients with SPM (hazard ratio [HR] for overall survival, 3.30; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.20-3.41). The impact of SPM development on reduced survival was more significant in patients with localized IP-HNSCC vs regional IP-HNSCC (HR_OS, 3.41; 95% CI: 3.24-3.6 vs HR_OS, 3.18; 95% CI: 3.05-3.31; P for interaction <.001). The survival impact of SPM development was more evident in younger patients than in older patients. SPM in lung and bronchus was associated with the most pronounced reduction in survival, overall and across all subsites of HNSCC. Our results indicated that SPM development led to a significant reduction in survival. A greater survival benefit may be achieved through intensive surveillance for SPM in lung and bronchus targeting younger patients and those with localized HNSCC.     

基础疾病负担对药物性肝损伤严重程度及预后的影响

目的探讨基础疾病对药物性肝损伤(drug-induced liver injury,DILI)患者严重程度及预后的影响。方法纳入北京友谊医院肝病中心2016年1月至2019年12月符合入排标准的DILI患者,依据查尔森合并症指数(Charlson Comorbidity Index,CCI)分为显著基础疾病负担组(CCI>2分)和无或轻度基础疾病负担组(CCI≤2分),通过卡方检验及非参数检验分析两组患者临床特征、损伤程度及预后。结果313例DILI患者年龄为(54±14)岁,女性227例(72.5%),其中无或轻度基础疾病负担的患者272例(86.9%),显著基础疾病负担的患者41例(13.1%)。与无或轻度基础疾病负担组相比,显著基础疾病负担组年龄更大[(63±8)岁比(52±14)岁]、体质指数[(24.2±5.2)比(23.1±3.6)kg/m²]及谷氨酰转肽酶[初始值283.0(159.0,404.0)U/L比189.0(100.0,325.0)U/L;峰值335.0(239.0,582.0)U/L比219.0(131.0,360.0)U/L]更高,差异均有统计学意义(均P<0.01);严重程度及临床分型两组相比差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。在本队列中,250例(79.9%)DILI患者恢复正常,41例(13.1%)发展为慢性DILI,22例(7.0%)需要肝移植或者死亡,显著基础疾病负担组全因病死率及非肝脏相关的病死率均显著高于无或轻度基础病负担组患者(19.5%比3.7%;12.2%比0.7%,均P<0.01)。结论基础疾病负担重的患者预后差,以非肝脏相关死亡为主。     

孤独症谱系障碍社会脑神经网络基础及其研究进展

孤独症谱系障碍(ASD)的核心诊断特征是社会交流障碍以及受限和重复的行为和兴趣,症状常在生命的最初几年出现。过去的二十年内,神经成像揭示了许多“社会性”大脑的非典型活动和异常连通性的发现,包括梭状回对面部和凝视的分析、杏仁核的情绪处理、默认模式网络的心智化以及镜像神经元相关区域对他人行为的模仿和理解,但对于社交功能缺陷潜在的神经生理机制还未达成一致。除了方法学上的挑战以及聚焦于单个大脑网络的连通性研究以外,更深层次的问题是ASD的极强异质性。这种不一致的发现,可能是由于诊断标准的变化以及学龄前期的ASD患儿存在非典型的神经发育轨迹,因此,有必要进行孤独症亚型的队列研究和大样本的纵向队列研究。     

糖尿病前期中医证型及证素特点分析＊

目的 探讨糖尿病前期的中医证型及证素分布特点。方法 检索中国知网、万方及维普三大数据库中收录的自建库以来有关糖尿病前期证型的临床研究文献，对中医证型进行规范整理，建立数据库，提取证素，运用数据挖掘技术中的关联分析、聚类分析探究证素分布规律。结果 共纳入10篇文献，总有效病例1620例，证型经规范处理后整理为18个，主要证型为脾虚痰湿证。共提取证素13个，主要病位证素为脾，主要病性证素为气虚、湿和痰，关联分析显示脾—湿支持度和置信度最高，聚类分析结果可得到3个聚类组。结论 糖尿病前期病位在脾，气虚、脾、痰、湿是常见证素，临床诊治糖尿病前期应注重从脾论治，需辨证施治。
