AIM:To assess the vitamin A status of patients with Crohn's disease(CD) by evaluating serum retinol levels and the relative dose response(RDR) test(liver retinol stores).METHODS:Vitamin A nutritional status was measured by serum retinol obtained by high performance liquid chromatography and the RDR test for evaluation of the hepatic stores.Body composition was performed by densitometry by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry.Vitamin A dietary intake was assessed from a semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire.RESULTS:This study included 38 CD patients and 33 controls.Low serum retinol concentrations were detected in 29% of CD patients vs 15% in controls(P < 0.005).The RDR test was positive in 37% of CD patients vs 12% in controls,which indicated inadequate hepatic vitamin A stores(P < 0.005).Individuals with hypovitaminosis A had lower BMI and body fat compared with those without this deficiency.There was no association between vitamin A deficiency and its dietary intake,ileal location,presence of disease activity and prior bowel resections.CONCLUSION:Patients with CD have higher prevalence of vitamin A deficiency,as assessed by two independent methods. 展开更多

Background and aims:Lenvatinib(LEN)is a newly developed tyrosine kinase inhibitor,and is approved as a first-line treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)in Japan.This retrospective multi-center study investigated the effect of the relative dose intensity(RDI)of LEN on response rate,progression-free survival(PFS),and overall survival(OS).Methods:This retrospective study enrolled 123 patients with advanced HCC who were treated with LEN at six hospitals in Japan between March 2018 and December 2019.These patients were divided into two groups:RDI≥70%(RDI 70 group,N=70)or RDI<70%(control group,N=53)in the first 30 days.The following data were compared between groups:patient backgrounds,adverse events,treatment out-comes,PFS,and OS.PFS and OS were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method,followed by the log-rank test.To identify significant factors that contributed to response,PFS,and OS,multivariate analysis was performed using factors for which P-values were<0.10 in univariate analysis.Results:The proportion of patients with Child-Pugh class 5A was significantly greater in the RDI 70 group than that in the control group(64.3%vs.28.3%,P<0.01).Dose interruption due to adverse events was significantly more common in the control group.The response rate was significantly higher in the RDI 70 group than that in the control group(35.7%vs.11.3%,P<0.01).Median PFS was significantly longer in the RDI 70 group(9.4 vs.4.7 months,P<0.01).Multivariate analysis showed that RDI≥70%(hazard ratio(HR)=0.55,P=0.025),hypertension grade≥2(HR=0.47,P=0.019),and response(HR=0.52,P=0.033)were independently associated with improved PFS.Median OS was also significantly longer in the RDI 70 group(20.0 vs.13.3 months,P=0.045).Multivariate analysis showed that female sex(HR=0.33,P=0.034)and disease control(HR=0.31,P<0.01)were independently associated with improved OS.RDI≥70%was not statistically significant in multivariate analysis.Conclusions:Our study revealed the importance of achieving RDI≥70%in the first 30 days of treatment to maximize the effects of LEN。 展开更多

The main objectives were to (1) calculate the total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs) inhalation dose, (2) analyze the proportions of human’s inhaled contaminant dose from different sources, and (3) present a newly defined ratio of relative inhalation dose level (RIDL) to assess indoor air quality (IAQ). A user defined function based on CFD (computational fluid dynamics) was developed, which integrated human motion model with TVOCs emission model in a high sidewall air supply ventilation mode. Based on simulation results of 10 cases, it is shown that the spatial concentration distribution of TVOCs is affected by human motion. TVOCs diffusion characteristic of building material is the most effective way to impact the TVOCs inhalation dose. From the RIDL index, case A-2 has the most serious IAQ problem, while case D-1 is of the best IAQ. 展开更多

In this study, we fabricated a Cerenkov fiber-optic dosimeter (CFOD) without any scintillator to measure Cerenkov radiation signals owing to gamma-rays. The relative depth dose (RDD) distributions of Ir-192 HDR brachytherapy source were obtained by using the CFOD based on a subtraction method and the RDD curve was compared with the simulation result of Monte Carlo N-particle extended transport code (MCNPX). Finally, we demonstrated that the CFOD can be used to measure real-time dose information for HDR brachytherapy. 展开更多

Intensity-modulated particle therapy(IMPT)with carbon ions is comparatively susceptible to various uncertainties caused by breathing motion,including range,setup,and target positioning uncertainties.To determine relative biological effectiveness-weighted dose(RWD)distributions that are resilient to these uncertainties,the reference phase-based four-dimensional(4D)robust optimization(RP-4DRO)and each phase-based 4D robust optimization(EP-4DRO)method in carbon-ion IMPT treatment planning were evaluated and compared.Based on RWD distributions,4DRO methods were compared with 4D conventional optimization using planning target volume(PTV)margins(PTV-based optimization)to assess the effectiveness of the robust optimization methods.Carbon-ion IMPT treatment planning was conducted in a cohort of five lung cancer patients.The results indicated that the EP-4DRO method provided better robustness(P=0.080)and improved plan quality(P=0.225)for the clinical target volume(CTV)in the individual respiratory phase when compared with the PTV-based optimization.Compared with the PTV-based optimization,the RP-4DRO method ensured the robustness(P=0.022)of the dose distributions in the reference breathing phase,albeit with a slight sacrifice of the target coverage(P=0.450).Both 4DRO methods successfully maintained the doses delivered to the organs at risk(OARs)below tolerable levels,which were lower than the doses in the PTV-based optimization(P<0.05).Furthermore,the RP-4DRO method exhibited significantly superior performance when compared with the EP-4DRO method in enhancing overall OAR sparing in either the individual respiratory phase or reference respiratory phase(P<0.05).In general,both 4DRO methods outperformed the PTV-based optimization in terms of OAR sparing and robustness. 展开更多
