| 1 | Cold-chain food contamination as the possible origin of COVID-19 resurgence in Beijing显示文摘COVID-19,caused by SARS-CoV-2[1,2],has been contained in China through stringent non-pharmaceutical interventions.Border control and quarantine have effectively prevented the virus from being spread by infected travellers,but the risk of resurgence caused by other routes of introduction and transmission remains unclear,and current strategies to prevent resurgence could be flawed.Since July,SARS-CoV-2 RNA contaminations in frozen food imported from countries with ongoing epidemics have been reported in nine provinces in China[3,4].However,there is no robust evidence of COVID-19 outbreaks initiated by environmentto-human transmission.Here we add to evidence of such transmission by investigating the recent COVID-19 resurgence in Beijing. | Xinghuo Pang Lili Ren Shuangsheng Wu Wentai Ma Jian Yang Lin Di Jie Li Yan Xiao Lu Kang Shichang Du Jing Du Jing Wang Gang Li Shuguang Zhai Lijuan Chen Wenxiong Zhou Shengjie Lai Lei Gao Yang Pan Quanyi Wang Mingkun Li Jianbin Wang Yanyi Huang Jianwei Wang COVID-19 Field Response Group COVID-19 Laboratory Testing Group | 2020 | National Science Review2020,7,12: | 51 |
| 2 | Impact of KRAS mutation and PTEN expression on cetuximab-treated colorectal cancer显示文摘AIM:To investigate the prognostic value of KRAS mutation,and phosphatase and tensin (PTEN) expression in Chinese metastatic colorectal cancer metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients treated with cetuximab.METHODS:Ninety Chinese mCRC patients treated with cetuximab were evaluated for KRAS mutation and PTEN protein expression by DNA sequencing of codons 12 and 13 and immunohistochemistry,respectively.We then selected 61 patients treated with cetuximab,either in combination with chemotherapy,or alone as a second-line or third-line regimen to assess whether KRAS mutation or PTEN protein expression is associated with the response and the survival time of mCRC patients treated with cetuximab.RESULTS:KRAS mutation was found in 30 (33.3%) tumor samples from the 90 patients,and positive PTEN expression was detected in 58 (64.4%) of the 90 patients.Among the 61 patients who were treated with cetuximab as a second-line or third-line regimen,the resistance to cetuximab was found in 22 patients with KRAS mutation and in 39 patients without KRAS mutation,with a response rate of 4.5% and 46.1% respectively (P=0.001),a shorter median progression-free survival (PFS) time of 14 ± 1.3 wk and 32 ± 2.5 wk respectively (P < 0.001),a median overall survival (OS) time of 11 ± 1.2 mo and 19 ± 1.8 mo respectively (P < 0.001),as well as in 24 patients with negative PTEN expression and in 37 patients with positive PTEN expression respectively (P < 0.001),with a responsive rate of 4.2% and 48.6% respectively,a shorter median PFS survival time of 17 ± 2.0 wk and 28 ± 1.9 wk respectively (P=0.07),and a median OS time of 11 ± 1.3 mo and 18 ± 1.9 mo respectively (P=0.004).Combined KRAS mutation and PTEN expression analysis showed that the PFS and OS time of patients with two favorable prognostic factors were longer than those of patients with one favorable prognostic factor or no favorable prognostic factor (P < 0.001).CONCLUSION:KRAS mutation and PTEN protein expression are significantly correlated with the response rate and survival time of Chinese mCRC patients treated with cetuximab. | Fang-Hua Li,Zhuang-Hua Li,Hui-Yan Luo,Miao-Zhen Qiu,Yu-Hong Li,Rui-Hua Xu,State Key Laboratory of Oncology in Southern China,Department of Medical Oncology,Sun YatSen University Cancer Center,Guangzhou 510060,Guangdong Province,China Fang-Hua Li,Department of Medical Oncology,Shengli Oil Field Central Hospital,Dongying 257034,Shandong Province,China Lin Shen,Department of GI Oncology,Peking University School of Oncology,Beijing Cancer Hospital and Institute,Beijing 100142,China Hui-Zhong Zhang,State Key Laboratory of Oncology in Southern China,Department of Pathology,Sun Yat-Sen University Cancer Center,Guangzhou 510060,Guangdong Province,China | 2010 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2010,16,46: | 9 |
