    Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common gastrointestinal malignancy, and recurrence and metastasis contribute considerably to its high mortality. It is well known that the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) accelerates the rate of cancer cell dissemination and migration, thus promoting cancer metastasis. Targeted therapy is a common modality for cancer treatment, and it can play a role in inhibiting cancer progression. In this study, bioinformatics was used to search for genes associated with the prognosis of CRC. First, differential analysis was performed on colon and rectal cancer samples to obtain 2,840 and 3,177 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), respectively. A Venn diagram was then used to identify 262 overlapping genes from the two groups of DEGs and EMT-related genes. The overlapping genes were subjected to batch survival analysis and batch expression analysis successively, and nine genes were obtained whose high expression in CRC led to a poor prognosis. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) prognostic model was then constructed to obtain the risk score formula. A nomogram was constructed to seek prognostic independent factors to obtain CDKN2A. Finally, CCK-8 assay, flow cytometry and western blotting assays were performed to analyze the cellular biological function of CDKN2A. The results showed that knockdown of CDKN2A expression inhibited HT-29 cell proliferation, promoted apoptosis and cell cycle progression, and affected the EMT process in CRC.

    Abstract Multiple factors have engaged in the progression of thyroid cancer (TC). Recent studies have shown that viral infection can be a critical factor in the pathogenesis of TC. Viruses, such as Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), may play an essential role in the occurrence, development, and even prognosis in TC. This review mainly explored the potential role of viral infection in the progress of TC. The possible mechanisms could be recognizing the host cell, binding to the receptors, affecting oncogenes levels, releasing viral products to shape a beneficial environment, interacting with immune cells to induce immune evasion, and altering the pituitary-thyroid axis. Thus, comprehensive knowledge may provide insights into finding molecular targets for diagnosing and treating virus-related TC.

    Abstract Background: Transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) has been accepted worldwide for the treatment of local rectal lesions. We aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of TEM in the treatment of rectal neuroendocrine tumors (RNET).
    Methods: A retrospective study of patients who had undergone TEM for RNET at our institution between December 2006 and June 2019 was performed. Demographic and tumor characteristics, operative and pathological details, complications, anal function questionnaires, and follow-up data were included.
    Results: A total of 144 patients was included. TEM was performed as primary excision in 54 patients, after endoscopic forceps biopsy in 57 patients, and after incomplete resection by endoscopic excision in 33 patients. The median size of all primary tumors was 0.6 cm (range, 0.3-2.0 cm), and the negative resection margin was achieved in 142 (98.6%) patients. Postoperative complications (referring to only bleeding) occurred in 3 (2.1%) patients and was successfully managed with conservative method. After a median follow-up of 75.5 months after surgery, 3 patients died of other causes, and 2 patients suffered metastasis. An anal function questionnaire was posted 24 months after TEM. Among the results, 3 (2.1%) patients complained of major low anterior resection syndrome (LARS), including 1 (0.7%) who suffered from complete incontinence, while 6 (4.2%) patients had minor LARS.
    Conclusions: TEM has satisfying long-term outcomes and relatively low anal function disturbance as for the treatment of small RNET. TEM also acts as a preferred salvage treatment for incomplete endoscopic excision.

    Abstract Introduction: The shortage of available beds and the increase in Emergency Department pressure can cause some patients to be admitted in wards with available beds assigned to other services (outlying patients). The aim of this study is to assess the frequency, types of complications and costs of outlying patients.
    Methods: Using a retrospective cohort model, we analysed the 2015 general and digestive surgery records (source: Minimum Basic Data Set and economic database). After selecting all outlying patients, we compared the complications, length of stay, costs and consequences of complications against a randomized sample of non-outlying patients with the same DRG and date of episode for every outlying patient, obtaining one non-outlying patient for each selected outlying patient. Thirteen outlying patients with no non-outlying patient pair were excluded from the study.
    Results: From a total of 2,915 patients, 363 (12.45%) were outlying patients. A total of 350 outlying patients were analysed versus 350 non-outlying patients. There were no significant differences in complications (9.4 vs. 8.3%), length of stay (4.33 vs. 4.65 days) or costs (€3,034.12 vs. €3,223.27). Outlying patients men presented a significantly higher risk of complications compared to women (RR=2.10). Outlying patients presented complications after 2.5 or more days.
    Conclusions: When outlying admissions become necessary, the selection of patients with less complex pathologies does not increase complications or their consequences (ICU admissions, readmissions, reoperations or mortality), hospital stays or costs. Only in cases of prolonged outlying stays of more than 2.5 days, or in males, may more complications appear. Therefore, male outliers should be avoided in general, and patients should be transferred to the proper ward if a length of stay beyond 2.5 days is foreseen.

    Abstract Yueju, a famous classic Chinese prescription, has been extensively used in treating depression syndromes for hundreds of years. Recent studies have reported that Yueju showed good effects in treating metabolic diseases, such as obesity and hyperlipidemia. Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which leads to cirrhosis and severe cardiovascular diseases, is closely linked to obesity and abnormal lipid metabolism. In this study, Yueju could decrease the levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate transaminase, triglyceride, cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein-C but increase the high-density lipoprotein-C in the serum of the NASH rat model induced by high-fat and high-cholesterol diet. Yueju could alleviate hepatosteatosis by increasing the phosphorylation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase and inhibiting the expression of fatty acid synthase and stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1. Yueju downregulated the expression of

    Abstract Fudan-Yueyang-G. lucidum (FYGL) is a water-soluble macromolecular proteoglycan extracted from Ganoderma lucidum which has been used for health promotion for a long time in China. The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effects of FYGL on INS-1 rat insulinoma beta cells against IAPP-induced cell apoptosis, as well as the underlying mechanisms. The results showed that apoptotic cells were significantly increased when incubated with islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP). However, cytotoxicity of IAPP was significantly attenuated by co-incubation of the cells with FYGL. The results of RT-PCR showed that mRNA expression of caspase-3, caspase-12 and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) in IAPP-treated cells were inhibited by FYGL. Moreover, FYGL significantly prevented the IAPP-induced abnormal expression of inositol-requiring protein-1α (IRE1α), protein kinase RNA (PKR)-like ER kinase (PERK), activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6), as well as suppressed the activation of CHOP and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). Taken together, our results suggest that FYGL protects INS-1 pancreatic beta cells against IAPP-induced apoptosis through attenuating endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and modulating CHOP/JNK pathways.
