- Abstract
To build a model using white-matter radiomics features on positron-emission tomography (PET) and machine learning methods to predict progression from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to Alzheimer disease (AD). We analyzed the data of 341 MCI patients from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative, of whom 102 progressed to AD during an 8-year follow-up. The patients were divided into the training (238 patients) and test groups (103 patients). PET-based radiomics features were extracted from the white matter in the training group, and dimensionally reduced to construct a psychoradiomics signature (PS), which was combined with multimodal data using machine learning methods to construct an integrated model. Model performance was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves in the test group. Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) scores, Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale (ADAS) scores, and PS independently predicted MCI progression to AD on multivariate logistic regression. The areas under the curve (AUCs) of the CDR, ADAS and PS in the training and test groups were 0.683, 0.755, 0.747 and 0.737, 0.743, 0.719 respectively, and were combined using a support vector machine to construct an integrated model. The AUC of the integrated model in the training and test groups was 0.868 and 0.865, respectively (sensitivity, 0.873 and 0.839, respectively; specificity, 0.784 and 0.806, respectively). The AUCs of the integrated model significantly differed from those of other predictors in both groups (p < 0.05, Delong test). Our psych radiomics signature based on white-matter PET data predicted MCI progression to AD. The integrated model built using multimodal data and machine learning identified MCI patients at a high risk of progression to AD. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

MALE breast cancer ,SENTINEL lymph node biopsy ,JUJUBE (Plant) ,CHINA studies ,OVERALL survival - Abstract
Male breast cancer (MBC) is a rare disease. Although several large-scale studies have investigated MBC patients in other countries, the features of MBC patients in China have not been fully explored. This study aims to explore the features of Chinese MBC patients comprehensively. We retrospectively collected data of MBC patients from 36 centers in China. Overall survival (OS) was evaluated by the Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test, and Cox regression analyses. Multivariate Cox analyses were used to identify independent prognostic factors of the patients. In total, 1119 patients were included. The mean age at diagnosis was 60.9 years, and a significant extension over time was observed (P < 0.001). The majority of the patients (89.1 %) received mastectomy. Sentinel lymph node biopsy was performed in 7.8 % of the patients diagnosed in 2009 or earlier, and this percentage increased significantly to 38.8 % in 2020 or later (P < 0.001). The five-year OS rate for the population was 85.5 % [95 % confidence interval (CI), 82.8 %–88.4 %]. Multivariate Cox analysis identified taxane-based [T-based, hazard ratio (HR) = 0.32, 95 % CI, 0.13 to 0.78, P = 0.012] and anthracycline plus taxane-based (A + T-based, HR = 0.47, 95 % CI, 0.23 to 0.96, P = 0.037) regimens as independent protective factors for OS. However, the anthracycline-based regimen showed no significance in outcome (P = 0.175). As the most extensive MBC study in China, we described the characteristics, treatment and prognosis of Chinese MBC population comprehensively. T-based and A + T-based regimens were protective factors for OS in these patients. More research is required for this population. • This is the largest-scale study reporting Chinese MBC to date, involving 1119 Chinese MBC patients from 36 centers. • The characteristics, treatment patterns and prognosis of Chinese MBC population have been fully investigated. • An optimization of treatments given to the patients over time is observed. • The efficacy of taxane-based and anthracycline plus taxane-based regimens was first indicated in Chinese MBC patients.

To explore whether specific clinicopathological covariates are predictive for a benefit from capecitabine maintenance in early-stage triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) in the SYSUCC-001 phase III clinical trial. Candidate covariates included age, menstrual status, type of surgery, postoperative chemotherapy regimen, Ki-67 percentage, histologic grade, primary tumor size, lymphovascular invasion, node status, and capecitabine medication. Their nonlinear effects were modeled by restricted cubic spline. The primary endpoint was disease-free survival (DFS). A survival prediction model was constructed using Cox proportional hazards regression analysis. All 434 participants (306 in development cohort and 128 in validation cohort) were analyzed. The estimated 5-year DFS in development and validation cohorts were 77.8 % (95 % CI, 72.9%–82.7 %) and 78.2 % (95 % CI, 70.9%–85.5 %), respectively. Age and node status had significant nonlinear effects on DFS. The prediction model constructed using four covariates (node status, lymphovascular invasion, capecitabine maintenance, and age) demonstrated satisfactory calibration and fair discrimination ability, with C-index of 0.722 (95 % CI, 0.662–0.781) and 0.764 (95 % CI, 0.668–0.859) in development and validation cohorts, respectively. Moreover, patient classification was conducted according to their risk scores calculated using our model, in which, notable survival benefits were reported in low-risk subpopulations. An easy-to-use online calculator for predicting benefit of capecitabine maintenance was also designed. The evidence-based prediction model can be readily assessed at baseline, which might help decision making in clinical practice and optimize patient stratification, especially for those with low-risk, capecitabine maintenance might be a potential strategy in the early-disease setting. • Individualized prediction model to quantify the clinical benefit of capecitabine maintenance in TNBC is still lacking. • We reanalyzed data of SYSUCC-001 trial and developed the SYSU-001 prediction model integrating four routine clinic variables. • This study underscored the nonlinear effects of different factors in routine oncology practice (age and node status). • Our SYSU-001 prediction model may be a potential tool to quantify personal benefit from adding capecitabine therapy in early-stage TNBC.

The assessments of internal thickness reduction of ferromagnetic components are extremely important. Traditional nondestructive testing (NDT) methods are usually non-linear and sometimes the electromagnetic parameters of components are required. In this paper, a thickness reduction testing method based on variable intensity DC magnetization (VIDC-MAG) is proposed. Both theoretical modeling analysis and simulation modeling analysis show that a pole point of magnetic permeability μ m appears with the increase of DC magnetization intensity, which corresponds to an inflection point magnetizing current i m. The i m decreases with the increase of the defect depth of the wall thickness reduction and shows a linear relationship. The experimental results show that the method performs well for the inner wall thickness thinning and the relative error of the measurement results is small. Additionally, the measurement results are related to the width of the thickness reduction, the probe excitation frequency, the magnetic properties of ferromagnetic material and the lift-off distance of the magnetizer. The method is applicable to the thickness variation of the cover layer and does not need to know the electromagnetic parameters of the components in advance, which has greater practical application value.

Abstract: It has long been suggested that younger women with breast cancer have less favorable prognostic factors and poorer outcomes. Our main objectives were to determine whether poor prognosis among young women was independent of other common clinicopathologic parameters. We retrospectively analyzed 551 young patients (≤35 years, Group I) and 551 older patients (36–50 years, Group II), matched for year of diagnosis, family history of breast cancer, pathologic stage, hormone receptor expression and application of adjuvant therapy. Patients in Group I had significantly shorter disease-free survival (DFS) than Group II (median 23.2 months vs. 28.4 months, P = 0.024). Five-year DFS rate(63.7% vs. 74.7%, P < 0.001) and overall survival (OS) rate (79.5% vs. 85.6%, P = 0.024) in Group I was inferior to those in Group II. Multivariate analysis showed that young age was a significantly negative predictor for DFS and OS. Our study thus shows that age (≤35 y/o) is an independent risk factor for prognosis in operable breast cancer. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Lifetime cancer risk and exposure of daily commuters to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in cities of Northwest China were determined from a study of street dust samples obtained from bus stops in Qingyang city. The sum of 16 priority PAHs (Σ16 PAHs) concentrations in the dust samples ranged from 0.8 to 18.3 mg kg
−1 (mean 3.0 mg kg−1 ) and the distribution of individual, carcinogenic, combustion specific, low (2–3 rings) and high molecular weight (4–6 rings) PAHs was determined. The benzo[ a ]pyrene toxic equivalents of Σ16 PAHs ranged from 0.01 to 12.2 mg kg−1 (mean 0.8 mg kg−1 ). Incremental lifetime cancer risk from exposure to PAHs in dust at bus stops in Qingyang city was estimated at 1.9 × 10−6 for adults and 3.5 × 10−6 for children (confidence limit ≥ 95%). Emission source analysis of PAHs in bus stop dust showed that they were mainly derived from residential coal, oil and biomass combustion, e.g. from boilers, traffic vehicles, and Kang heaters. Higher concentrations of PAHs were obtained at bus stops near transport hubs, commercial districts, and administrative institutions. Image 1 • Health risk to daily commuters from PAHs in dust at most bus stops in Qingyang was moderate. • The results deserve the attention of researchers and governments in other cities. • The government should try to reduce congestion of vehicle and population flow. • The government should reasonably set up the number of bus lines and bus stops.

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is amplified in about 20% breast cancers. Treat of HER2 positive breast cancers has been greatly promoted in last few years, but the accompany HER2 blockade has hindered the therapeutic effect. Pyrotinib is a pan-HER kinase inhibitor that suppresses signaling through the RAS/RAF/MEK/MAPK and PI3K/AKT pathways. Palbociclib is a CDK4/6 inhibitor that inhibits cell cycle progression and cancer cell proliferation in ER+ breast cancers. We hypothesized that the combination of pan-HER kinase inhibitors and CDK4/6 inhibitors would show synergistic antitumor activity in vivo in vitro. Our data show that a combination of palbociclib and pyrotinib was highly synergistic in inhibiting cancer proliferation and colony formation. The combined treatment also induced significant decreases in pAKT and pHER3 activation, induced G0-G1 cell cycle arrest, and increased rates of apoptosis. In the xenograft model, the combination treatment demonstrated greater antitumor activity than either agent alone, with no apparent increase in toxicity. Our results offer a preclinical rationale clinical investigation of the effectiveness of a combination treatment of palbociclib with pyrotinib for breast cancer treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Utidelone, a genetically engineered epothilone analogue, has shown promise as a potential treatment for breast cancer in phase 1 and 2 trials. The aim of this phase 3 trial was to compare the efficacy and safety of utidelone plus capecitabine versus capecitabine alone in patients with metastatic breast cancer.Methods: We did a multicentre, open-label, superiority, phase 3, randomised controlled trial in 26 hospitals in China. Eligible participants were female patients with metastatic breast cancer refractory to anthracycline and taxane chemotherapy regimens. We randomly assigned participants (2:1) using computer based randomisation and block sizes of 6 to a 21-day cycle of either utidelone (30 mg/m2 intravenously once per day on days 1-5) plus capecitabine (1000 mg/m2 orally twice per day on days 1-14), or capecitabine alone (1250 mg/m2 orally twice per day on days 1-14), until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurred. Patients, physicians, and assessors were not masked to treatment allocation; however, an independent radiology review committee used to additionally assess response was masked to allocation. The primary endpoint was centrally assessed (by an independent radiology review committee) progression-free survival, and analysed using the Kaplan-Meier product-limit method in the intention-to-treat population. Safety was assessed in all participants who received at least one dose of study drug. Follow-up is ongoing. This study is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02253459.Findings: Between Aug 8, 2014, and Dec 14, 2015, we enrolled and randomly assigned 270 patients to treatment with utidelone plus capecitabine, and 135 to capecitabine alone. Median follow-up for progression-free survival was 6·77 months (IQR 3·81-10·32) for the utidelone plus capecitabine group and 4·55 months (2·55-9·39) for the capecitabine alone group. Median progression-free survival by central review in the utidelone plus capecitabine group was 8·44 months (95% CI 7·95-9·92) compared with 4·27 months (3·22-5·68) in the capecitabine alone group; hazard ratio 0·46, 95% CI 0·36-0·59; p<0·0001. Peripheral neuropathy was the most common grade 3 adverse event in the utidelone plus capecitabine group (58 [22%] of 267 patients vs 1 [<1%] of 130 patients in the capecitabine alone group). Palmar-plantar erythrodysaesthesia was the most prominent grade 3 adverse event in the capacitabine alone group (in 10 [8%] of 130 patients) and was the next most frequent grade 3 event in the utidelone plus capecitabine group (in 18 [7%] of 267 patients). 16 serious adverse events were reported in the combination therapy group (diarrhoea was the most common, in three [1%] patients) and 14 serious adverse events were reported in the monotherapy group (the most common were diarrhoea, increased blood bilirubin, and anaemia, in two [2%] patients for each event). 155 patients died (99 in the combination therapy arm, 56 in the monotherapy arm). All deaths were related to disease progression except for one in each group (attributed to pericardial effusion in the combination therapy group and dyspnoea in the monotherapy group) that were considered possibly or probably treatment-related.Interpretation: Despite disease progression with previous chemotherapies, utidelone plus capecitabine was more efficacious compared with capecitabine alone for the outcome of progression-free survival, with mild toxicity except for peripheral sensory neuropathy, which was manageable. The findings from this study support the use of utidelone plus capecitabine as an effective option for patients with metastatic breast cancer.Funding: Beijing Biostar Technologies, Beijing, China.
