RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common causes of cancer-related fatalities worldwide, and its progression is associated with RNA modifications. Here, using RNA modification-related genes (RNAMRGs), we aimed to construct a prognostic model for patients with GC. METHODS: Based on RNAMRGs, RNA modification scores (RNAMSs) were obtained for GC samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas and were divided into high- and low-RNAMS groups. Differential analysis and weighted correlation network analysis were performed for the differential expressed genes (DEGs) to obtain the key genes. Next, univariate Cox regression, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator, and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to obtain the model. According to the model risk score, samples were divided into high- and low-risk groups. Enrichment analysis and immunoassays were performed for the DEGs in these groups. Four external datasets from Gene Expression Omnibus data base were used to test the accuracy of the predictive model. RESULTS: We identified SELP and CST2 as key DEGs, which were used to generate the predictive model. The high-risk group had a worse prognosis compared to the low-risk group (p < 0.05). Enrichment analysis and immunoassays revealed that 144 DEGs related to immune cell infiltration were associated with the Wnt signaling pathway and included hub genes such as ELN. Overall mutation levels, tumor mutation burden, and microsatellite instability were lower, but tumor immune dysfunction and exclusion scores were greater (p < 0.05) in the high-risk group than in the low-risk group. The validation results showed that the prediction model score can accurately predict the prognosis of GC patients. Finally, a nomogram was constructed using the risk score combined with the clinicopathological characteristics of patients with GC. CONCLUSION: This risk score from the prediction model related to the tumor microenvironment and immunotherapy could accurately predict the overall survival of GC patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Chronic atrophic gastritis is a very common condition in the general clinical practice of gastroenterology. Tuina treatment is widely used clinically. The aim of our study was to investigate the mechanisms of tuina in rats with chronic atrophic gastritis. METHODS: Fifty-six specific pathogen-free grade rats were employed for our study. They were divided into 5 groups and treated differ- ently. Body weight was recorded every week, and their small intestine propulsive ratio was measured after intragastric administration of carbon powder. Histopathological observation of gastric tissues was performed using hematoxylin and eosin staining. The levels of motilin and gastrin in serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and the expression levels of Bcl-2 and cytochrome C were measured by the western blot assay. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in body weight and small intestine propulsive ratio between the chronic atrophic gastritis model group and the tuina group (P > .05). However, we can see some significant changes in histomorphology after treatment with tuina. For example, the atrophy of gastric mucosal epithelium and glands had improved, and the inflammatory cells infiltrating the lamina propria were decreased significantly. Moreover, the level of gastrointestinal hormone GAS was increased (P < .001), and there was no statistically significant difference in motilin, Bcl-2, and cytochrome-c after treatment with tuina (P > .05). CONCLUSION: Our research demonstrated the effectiveness of tuina treatment on chronic atrophic gastritis with a possible underlying mechanism that affected the secretion of gastric acid, which could provide some useful information for clinical application.

RESUMO

Objective: To investigate the effect of acupoint massage on the recovery of gastrointestinal function in patients after laparoscopic surgery for gynecologic indications. Methods: A total of 160 patients, who underwent gynecologic laparoscopy from December 2015 to January 2017, were recruited. Half of the patients received standard postoperative nursing (i.e., the control group); while the other half received acupoint massage in addition to the standard care (i.e., the observation group). The recovery time of bowel sounds, the first anal exhaust time and the first defecation time were recorded. The plasma levels of motilin, somatostatin and cholecystokinin before and after the surgery were also determined. Results: Compared to the control group, the observation group demonstrated significantly shorter bowel sound recovery time, first anal exhaust time and first defecation time (t = 11.755, 10.400, 11.950, P < 0.01 for all comparisons). Before surgery, the plasma levels of gastrointestinal hormones in both groups were comparable. At 12, 24, and 48 hours postoperative, the difference between two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The overall response rate of the observation group was also significantly higher than that of the control group (control group, 78.75%; observation group, 97.50%; P = 0.008). Conclusion: Acupoint massage could accelerate the recovery of bowel function after gynecologic laparoscopy by modulating the release of gastrointestinal hormones.

RESUMO

To study the effects of Tui Na therapy on patients with mammary gland hyperplasia.A total of 68 female patients with mammary gland hyperplasia were included in this retrospective study from May 2016 to May 2017 and assigned into control group (N = 34) treated with Rupixiao only (a proprietary Chinese medicine) or Tui Na group (N = 34) treated with Tui Na (Chinese massage) combined with Rupixiao. The pain intensity (visual analogous scale, VAS) and serum levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol (E2), prolactin (PRL), and progesterone (P) were examined before and after the treatment.The efficacies were 94.1% (32/34) in the Tui Na group and 76.5% (26/34) in the control group (P = .04). After treatment, VAS in Tui Na groups was significantly lower than that in control group (2.1 ±â€Š1.1 vs 3.1 ±â€Š1.1, P < .05). After follow-up for five months, the recurrence rates were 12.5% (4/32) in the Tui Na group and 23.1% (6/26) in the control group (P = .01). The levels of all 4 hormones in the Tui Na group increased significantly after treatment. In control group, only LH and E2 levels were significantly increased after treatment.In patients with mammary gland hyperplasia, Tui Na combined with Rupixiao could improve clinical symptoms, regulate sex hormone levels, and decrease the recurrence rate than Rupixiao alone. Our finding suggests that Tui Na can be potentially used for the treatment of mammary gland hyperplasia.
