BACKGROUND Aggressive primary gastrointestinal non-Hodgkin lymphoma(PGINHL)is an uncommon and heterogeneous group of lymphoid malignancies,that differs from indolent lymphoma and has a high incidence of severe gastrointestinal complications(GICs).AIM To investigate and compare the clinicopathological characteristics,treatments and outcomes in the GICs and No-GICs group with aggressive PGINHL.METHODS This retrospective analysis was performed on aggressive PGINHL patients between January 2013 and December 2021 at our hospital.The independent influence factors of GICs were obtained by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis,the selected variables significantly related to GICs were selected as the final predictors to construct nomogram.Kaplan-Meier curves further analyzed the survival of patients in GICs and No-GICs groups.Survival analysis of GICs group was performed using Cox regression.RESULTS We focused on 124 aggressive PGINHL cases,which had a relatively high incidence 48.4%(60/124 cases)of GICs,the most common histological type in GICs group was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL)(n=49,81.7%).In the GICs group,small intestine was the most common anatomic site of lesion(43.3%),followed by large intestine(31.7%),and then stomach and esophagus(25.0%).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the independent risk factors for GICs were the small intestine[odd ratio(OR)=3.33;95%confidence interval(CI):1.47-9.41;P=0.009),aggressive B-cell(OR=0.09;95%CI:0.01-0.83;P=0.033),maximum tumor diameter(OR=1.25;95%CI:1.07-1.47;P=0.005),invaded deep serous layer(OR=3.38;95%CI:1.24-9.19;P=0.017).We developed a nomogram to predict risk of GICs in aggressive PGINHL patients based on independent risk factors.The value of area under curve calculated by receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.815,and calibration curve and decision curve analysis further indicated that the prediction effect was superior.The majority of patients with GICs were given combination therapy(chemotherapy combined with surgery or radiation).Event-free survival and overall survival in GICs group were no worse than those in the No-GICs group.CONCLUSION The complication rate of GICs in patients with aggressive PGINHL was relatively high,particularly in PGI-DLBCL.The independent risk factors for GICs were the small intestine,PGI-TNKL,bulky tumor,and depth of invasion.A combination treatment,involving surgery,improved survival in the GICs group. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Aggressive fibromatosis(AF),also known as desmoid tumor or desmoid-type fibromatosis,is a rare soft tissue neoplasm that can occur in almost any part of the body.Although it is a benign disease,AF is aggressive and infiltrative and has a high recurrence rate after surgery.Common sites for intra-abdominal AF are the small bowel mesentery,retroperitoneum,and pelvis.AF in the colon is extremely rare.CASE SUMMARY Here,we report the first case of sigmoid colon AF,which was accidentally discovered in a 27-year-old woman during laparoscopic myomectomy.Computed tomography confirmed a slightly enhanced mass in the sigmoid colon.Subsequent colonoscopy did not reveal a mass in the colonic lumen,but a suspected external compress was found in the sigmoid colon.Surgical disease involving a gastrointestinal stromal tumor was suspected.The patient underwent laparoscopic exploration,and sigmoidectomy with a negative margin was performed to excise the mass.Postoperative immunohistochemistry revealed that the mass was an AF.The patient recovered well and was recurrence-free at the 30-month follow-up without adjuvant therapy.CONCLUSION AF should be considered in the differential diagnosis of subepithelial colon masses.Radical resection alone can achieve good outcomes. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Aggressive variant prostate cancer(AVPC)is a rare disease that progresses rapidly.The first-line treatment for AVPC is currently unknown.We examined a rare case of AVPC with rare brain and bladder metastases.A summary review of the mechanism of development,clinicopathological manifestations,associated treatments and prognosis of this disease is presented.CASE SUMMARY The patient was diagnosed with prostate cancer(PCA),and was actively treated with endocrine therapy,radiotherapy,chemotherapy,and traditional Chinese medicine.Unfortunately,he was insensitive to treatment,and the disease progressed rapidly.He died five years after being diagnosed with PCA.CONCLUSION We should reach consensus definitions of the AVPC and other androgen receptorindependent subtypes of PCA and develop new biomarkers to identify groups of high-risk variants.It is crucial to complete a puncture biopsy of the tumor or metastatic lesion as soon as possible in patients with advanced PCA who exhibit clinical features such as low Prostate-specific antigen levels,high carcinoembryonic antigen levels,and insensitivity to hormones to determine the pathological histological type and to create a more aggressive monitoring and treatment regimens. 展开更多

Background Accumulating evidence from human trials and rodent studies has indicated that modulation of gut microbiota affects host physiological homeostasis and behavioral characteristics.Similarly,alterations in gut micro-biota could be a feasible strategy for reducing aggressive behavior and improving health in chickens.The study was conducted to determine the effects of early-life cecal microbiota transplantation(CMT)on cecal microbial composi-tion,brain serotonergic activity,and aggressive behavior of recipient chickens.Methods Chicken lines 63 and 72 with nonaggressive and aggressive behavior,respectively,were used as donors and a commercial strain Dekalb XL was used as recipients for CMT.Eighty-four 1-d-old male chicks were randomly assigned to 1 of 3 treatments with 7 cages per treatment and 4 chickens per cage(n=7):saline(control,CTRL),cecal solution of line 6_(3)(6_(3)-CMT),and cecal solution of line 7_(2)(7_(2)-CMT).Transplantation was conducted via oral gavage once daily from d 1 to 10,and then boosted once weekly from week 3 to 5.At weeks 5 and 16,home-cage behavior was recorded,and chickens with similar body weights were assigned to paired aggression tests between the treat-ments.Samples of blood,brain,and cecal content were collected from the post-tested chickens to detect CMT-induced biological and microbiota changes.Results 63-CMT chickens displayed less aggressive behavior with a higher hypothalamic serotonergic activity at week 5.Correspondingly,two amplicon sequence variants(ASVs)belonging to Lachnospiraceae and one Ruminococ-caceae UCG-005 ASV were positively correlated with the levels of brain tryptophan and serotonin,respectively.7_(2)-CMT chickens had lower levels of brain norepinephrine and dopamine at week 5 with higher levels of plasma serotonin and tryptophan at week 16.ASVs belonging to Mollicutes RF39 and GCA-900066225 in 7_(2)-CMT chickens were nega-tively correlated with the brain 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid(5-HIAA)at week 5,and one Bacteroides ASV was negatively correlated with plasma serotonin at week 16.Conclusion Results indicate that CMT at an early age could regulate aggressive behavior via modulating the cecal microbial composition,together with central serotonergic and catecholaminergic systems in recipient chickens.The selected CMT could be a novel strategy for reducing aggressive behavior through regulating signaling along the microbiota-gut-brain axis. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Aggressive angiomyolipoma is an extremely rare benign mesenchymal tumor that was originally described as a locally recurrent mucinous spindle cell tumour.Agg-ressive angiomyolipoma originates from myofibroblasts,vascular smooth muscle cells,or fibroblasts,and displays various phenotypes of myofibroblasts and abnor-mal muscle arteries.Aggressive angiomyolipoma was first identified in 1983 and fewer than 50 male patients have been reported to date.It is an extremely rare mesenchymal tumour and often confused with other diseases.Patients with epididymal aggressive angiomyolipoma lack typical symptoms,most of which occur incidentally,although some patients may experience mild pain,discomfort,and swelling.Pain may be exacerbated by pressure from the mass.CASE SUMMARY A 66-year-old male was admitted to the hospital on January 14,2022 with chief complaint of swelling in the left scrotum for one year.There was no apparent cause for the swelling.The patient did not consult with any doctor or receive any treatment for the swelling.The enlarged scrotum increased in size gradually until it reached approximately the size of a goose egg,and was accompanied by discom-fort and swelling of the left cavity of the scrotum.The patient had no history of any testicular trauma,infection,or urinary tract infection.The patient urinated freely,1-2 times at night,without urgency,dysuria(painful urination),or haematuria.There was no significant family history of malignancy.The patient underwent excision of the enlarged tumour and the left epididymis under general anaes-thesia on January 18,2022.Twelve months of follow-up revealed no recurrence.The patient was satisfied with the treatment.CONCLUSION Aggressive angiomyolipoma is extremely rare clinically and often confused with other diseases.The pathogenesis of aggressive angiomyolipoma is unclear and the clinical presentation is mostly a painless enlarged mass.The diagnosis of aggressive angiomyolipoma requires a combination of medical history,preoperative imaging such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging,cytological examination and preoperative and postoperative pathological biopsy.The preferred treatment is surgery,with the possibility of a new alternative treatment option after hormonal therapy.Aggressive angiomyolipoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of parametrial tumors of the male genital area that present as clinically significant masses.The high recurrence rate of aggressive angiomyolipoma may be related to incomplete tumor resection,and patients with aggressive angiomyolipoma are advised to undergo annual postoperative follow-up and imaging for recurrence. 展开更多

Purpose: To examine the impact of gender and social gender on the level and typology of interictal aggressiveness in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy. Material and Methods: 40 adult patients with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (TLE) and 86 healthy individuals were included. The qualitative and quantitative aggressiveness assess- ment was made with Buss-Durkee Hostility Inventory. The gender role behavior was measured with Bem Sex Role Inventory. Results: Patients with TLE didn’t differ from healthy subjects on the total scores of motor and attitudinal hostility components, but scored higher on subscales “resentment” and “guilt”. The comparative gender analysis showed there were no phenomenological differences in people with TLE. Assault dominated in healthy male subjects, resentment—in healthy female subjects. The prevalence of feminine social gender type was significantly higher in people with TLE in comparison to healthy people (55% vs. 26%, p 0.01). In patients with TLE, the number of masculine traits positively correlated with indirect hostility subscale and attitudinal hostility component scores. In healthy subjects, the masculine traits positively correlated with assault. 展开更多

In the majority of cases, these models are not consistent with human circumstances. The present study simulated a social isolation plus resident intruder stress model in the rat. The rats were subjected to daily social isolation and resident intruder stress for 2 weeks. Behaviors were then tested. Rats subjected to social stress exhibited different aggressive behavior styles; some rats had greater scores on composite aggression behaviors, as well as locomotor and exploratory activity, but lower scores on latency than others. The high-aggressive group exhibited predominantly anger-out, while the low-aggressive group exhibited anger-in. Results suggest that social isolation plus resident intruder may serve as an appropriate model for anger-in and anger-out emotion modeling in the rat. 展开更多

Aggressive angiomyxoma (AAM) is a rare tumour that often occurs in soft tissues of the female genital tract. Eight cases of AAM are reported in this article, and the clinical features and ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results of the eight cases are reviewed and summarized. The main complaints of all the patients were palpable and painless masses in the vulva or scrotum. The lesions were mainly located in the vulva, pelvis, and perineal region, with a large scope of involvement. The sonographic features of AAM were characteristic. On sonography, all of the masses were of irregular shape and showed hypoechogenicity, with a heterogeneous inner echotexture. Intratumoural and peritumoural blood fows were detected by colour Doppler imaging. On real-time ultrasonic imaging, prominent deformation of the lesions was observed bycompressing the masses with the probe. Some special imaging features were also revealed, including a la-minated or swirled appearance of inner echogenicity, and a fnger-like or tongue-like growth pattern. On MRI imaging, the lesions showed intermediate-intensity signals and intermediate to high-intensity signals on TI-weighted and T2-weighted sequences. A rapid and uneven enhancement pattern was demonstrated. After the comparison of sonographic features with MRIand pathological findings, we found the relevance of the ultrasonographic characteristics with MRI and his-tological features of AAM. Ultrasound can be a valuable imaging method for the preoperative diagnosis, eva-luation of scope, and follow-up of AAM. 展开更多

To derive a precise estimation of the associations between the cytochrome P450 1B 1 (CYPIB1) 4326C/G variants and prostate cancer (PCa) risk or aggressiveness, a meta-analysis was performed using all eligible published studies. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated to assess the association in seven literature studies with 2788 cases and 2968 controls. In the overall analysis, no significant association was found between the CYPIB1 4326C/G polymorphism and PCa risk, but ethnicity subgroup analyses and a case-source analysis revealed significant associations. The 4326G allele showed a significant association with increased PCa risk in Asians (OR= 1.52, 95% Ch 1.20-1.92), and significant associations were also observed in a heterozygote comparison (OR= 1.40, 95% Ch 1.03-1.89), a homozygote comparison (0R=2.38, 95% Ch 1.31-4.33) and in a dominant genetic model (OR = 1.52, 95% Ch 1.14-2.01). Moreover, the 4326G allele was also significantly correlated with an increased risk of sporadic PCa (OR= 1.13, 95% Ch 1.04-1.24), and significant associations were observed in a heterozygote comparison (OR= 1.16, 95% Ch 1.02-1.33), a homozygote comparison (OR= 1.24, 95% Ch 1.03-1.49) and a dominant genetic model (OR= 1.19, 95% Ch 1.05- 1.34). The overall analyses and all subgroup analyses showed no significant association between the 4326C/G polymorphism and PCa aggressiveness. Our meta-analysis showed that CYPIB1 4326G allele is significantly associated with an increased PCa risk in Asians and in sporadic PCa cases. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Desmoid tumors(DT) are locally advanced but histologically benign monoclonal neoplasms that can occur from any musculoaponeurotic structure. The aim of this report is to analyze a rare clinical case of an aggressive intra-abdominal DT successfully treated with sorafenib.CASE SUMMARY A 36-year-old man presented with increasing colicky abdominal pain and a selfpalpable mass in his left abdomen. Fourteen years earlier he was diagnosed with a large intra-abdominal tumor, which adhered to the left colonic flexure, part of the major gastric curvature and the spleen. Subsequent exploratory laparotomy revealed a voluminous mass in the epigastrium, arising from the posterior surface of the stomach and invading the superior mesenteric vessels, transverse mesocolon and the small bowel mesentery. As the tumor was unresectable, a jejunojejunal bypass was performed. Traditional therapeutic interventions proved insufficient, and the patient was started on sorafenib with a subsequent fulldisease response.CONCLUSIONDT's pathogenesis has been associated with mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli(APC) gene or beta-catenin gene CTNNB1, sex steroids or previous surgical trauma. Local treatment modalities, such as surgery or radiotherapy, are implemented in aggressively progressing or symptomatic patients. Sorafenib is a hopeful therapeutic option against DTs, while several pharmacological agents have been successfully used. 展开更多

Objective To explore the endocfinal factors which influence the aggressive behavior of adolescents. Methods The levels of cortisol (CORT), testosterone (T), prolactin (PRL), and growth hormone (GH) in saliva from 20 aggressive students and 20 non-aggressive control students were measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA). The students were matched for their gender, age, grade, stage of pubertal development, and economic status of their families. Results The salivary T levels were 22.20±14.50 pg/mL and 19.54±12.52 pg/mL in aggressive male and female students, 13.20±6.85 pg/mL and 5.24±3.03 pg/mL in non-aggressive male and female students (P〈0.05). The male aggressive students had a lower level of CORT in saliva than non-aggressive male students (P〈0.05). There were no significant differences in the salivary levels of PRL or GH between the aggressive and non-aggressive groups. Correlation analysis revealed a negative relationship in male students between the salivary CORT levels and the aggression factor scores of the child behavior checklist (CBCL). In addition, the data also showed a positive relationship between the salivary T levels and the aggression factor scores of CBCL in female students. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the salivary CORT level was an independent predictive factor for aggressive behaviors in adolescent boys. The higher the CORT level, the less aggressive the boys were. Conclusion CORT and T levels may play a certain role in adolescent aggressive behaviors. 展开更多

The ATP-binding cassette transporters(ABC transporters)have been intensely studied over the past 50 years for their involvement in the multidrug resistance(MDR)phenotype,especially in cancer.They are frequently overexpressed in both naive and post-treatment tumors,and hinder effective chemotherapy by reducing drug accumulation in cancer cells.In the last decade however,several studies have established that ABC transporters have additional,fundamental roles in tumor biology;there is strong evidence that these proteins are involved in transporting tumor-enhancing molecules and/or in protein-protein interactions that impact cancer aggressiveness,progression,and patient prognosis.This review highlights these studies in relation to some well-described cancer hallmarks,in an effort to re-emphasize the need for further investigation into the physiological functions of ABC transporters that are critical for tum or development.Unraveling these new roles offers an opportunity to define new strategies and targets for therapy,which would include endogenous substrates or signaling pathways that regulate these proteins. 展开更多

Aim of this research is to explore the relation of hunting with aggressiveness. For this purpose, two samples of prison inmates (who were students of the prison secondary school) were collected (class A = 23, class B = 12). The network indicators for superficial, idiosyncratic and strategic behavior (particularly, aggressiveness), applied in Bekiari and Hasanagas (2016), which were based on the primary network variables (outdegree, indegree, Katz status, pagerank, authority) were used. Non-network variables were also used for the criminal profile of the inmates. The data were sampled with questionnaire. Spearman test was conducted for detecting correlation between aggressiveness and hunting and Principal Component Analysis was used for formulating a typology. The following results were produced: The criminal profile seems hardly to be related with hunting experience or attitude. The relation of hunting experience and attitude with the superficial, idiosyncratic and strategic aggressiveness was examined. These three occasions of aggressiveness are expected to describe the incidental reaction, impulsive and adaptive reaction, respectively. The hunting is quite irrelevant to the incidental reaction. The impulsiveness seems to be more strongly correlated with hunting. In case of adaptiveness, there are many similarities with impulsiveness. The typology which is based on the existence (or not) of hunting experience seems to be more insightful, as it reveals a gradual involvement of aggressiveness dimensions, from incidentality to impulsiveness and further to adaptiveness. The following behavioral patterns of gradually enhanced aggressiveness appear: incidentally just provoking, impulsively being aggressive but without harming, and adaptively being aggressive and harming. 展开更多

BACKGROUND In recent years,a decrease in incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer(CRC)has been observed in developed nations,presumably through public disease awareness and increased screening efforts.However,a rising incidence of CRC in young patients below the age of 50 years has been reported in several studies.AIM To study tumor biology in CRC patients below 50 years of age.METHODS All patients with CRC were prospectively enrolled in our single-center oncologic database from January 2013 to December 2018 and were grouped and analyzed according to age(≥50 and<50 years).Clinical as well as histopathological features were analyzed and compared.The study was approved by the local Ethics Committee.Fisher’s exact test or t-test was used to test for differences between the groups,as appropriate.All statistical analysis was performed with IBM SPSS software Version 25(SPSS Inc,Armonk,NY,United States)and with RStudio using R Version 3.4.1(RStudio,Boston,MA,United States).RESULTS Seventeen percent of the 411 patients were younger than 50 years.Young patients were more often diagnosed with locally advanced T4-tumors and lymph node metastases(36.6%and 62%vs 17.7%and 42%;P<0.01).In addition,a higher frequency of poorly differentiated(G3)tumors(40%vs 22.4%P<0.05)was observed.More than every second patient below 40 years of age(51.8%)had distant metastases at diagnosis with a significant higher rate ring of signet cell differentiation compared to patients≥50 years(14.8%,P<0.05).Mutational status(KRAS,NRAS,BRAF,MSI)as well as selected behavioral risk factors showed no significant differences.CONCLUSION Distinct histopathologic features of increased biologic aggressiveness are found in patients with CRC of young-onset.Those patients present more frequently with more advanced tumor stages compared to older patients.Features of aggressive tumor biology underscore the need for earlier uptake of routine screening measures. 展开更多

There are only two case reports in the English language literature where intra-abdominal aggressive fibromatosis originated from the intestinal wall. In this study, we aimed to report a case of aggressive fibromatosis originating from the muscularis propria layer of the duodenum and invading pancreas. Another interesting aspect of this case is that a primary paraduodenal hydatid cyst was incidentally detected in the surgical specimen. A 46-year-old female patient presented to our clinic with postprandial nausea and vomiting. A contrast-enhanced abdominal computerized tomography revealed a mass lesion with a size of 100 mm × 80 mm which originated from the distal pancreas and compressed the gastric pilor externally. Upon exploration the distal part of duodenum, proximaljejunum, and pancreatic mass were noted to form a conglomerated structure. Therefore, the fourth part of the duodenum, a 25 cm part of the proximal jejunum, distal pancreas, and the spleen were excised enbloc. The pathology report of the specimen indicated fibromatosis with a diameter of 55 mm that originated from the muscularis propria of the duodenum and extended into the pancreatic parenchyma. There was also an incidentally detected 10 mm paraduodenal hydatid cyst. No tumor recurrence was detected at a follow-up period of 24 mo. In conclusion, the most ideal treatment of desmoid-type fibromatosis is surgical resection of the mass lesion with clean surgical borders. Although rare, this tumor may originate from the intestinal wall. Histopathological verification is of great significance for a proper diagnosis. 展开更多

AIM: To evaluate the role of thymidine phosphorylase (TP) in cholangiocarcinoma using small interfering RNA (siRNA). METHODS: A human cholangiocarcinoma-derived cell line KKU-M139, which has a naturally high level of endogenous TP, had TP expression transiently knocked down using siRNA. Cell growth, migration, in vitro angiogenesis, apoptosis, and cytotoxicity were assayed in TP knockdown and wild-type cell lines. RESULTS: TP mRNA and protein expression were decreased by 87.1% ± 0.49% and 72.5% ± 3.2%, respectively, compared with control cells. Inhibition of TP significantly decreased migration of KKU-M139, and suppressed migration and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells. siRNA also reduced the ability of TP to resist hypoxia-induced apoptosis, while suppression of TP reduced the sensitivity of KKU-M139 to 5-fluorouracil. CONCLUSION: Inhibition of TP may be beneficial in decreasing angiogenesis-dependent growth and migration of cholangiocarcinoma but may diminish the response to 5-fluorouracil chemotherapy. 展开更多

Aim of this research is the detection of aggressive communication parameters and typology. A network sample of 62 students (male = 32, female = 30) and 4 instructors (male = 2, female = 2) at the physical education and sport sciences dept. at the University of Thessaly has been collected in 2016. A standardized questionnaire consisting of network and non-network part was used. Social network analysis (algebraic analysis) combined with conventional statistics has been used. Basic results are the following ones: Persons dedicated to sport appear to target others and be targeted. Dedication to study content is proved to play a role of a refuge against criticism. High grade and ambition seem to protect against negative comments. Physical qualification (tallness) seems also to discourage rudeness. Spatial-regional discrimination is also revealed. Mockery seems to be even a cause of absence from the courses. A superiority-induced aggressiveness (on economic basis) has been detected. Threat may be regarded as a behavioral extension of mockery (or inversely). In the course of study time, more aggressive persons emerge who even threat others. High grade students are unattractive for arguing. Internet seems to develop communication stimuli. The tendency for professional distinction is connected with arguing. Younger students show an integration deficit in terms of argumentation. Communicational types (three profiles of targets: “depreciated assaulted”, “attractive”, “repellent”, and two profiles of general involvement: “lively”, “controversial”) have emerged. A typology of targets is depicting a sharper fragmentation than a typology of general involvement (targeted and acting). 展开更多

The effects of aggressive peat nature (pH) on the strength of peat treated by cement and cement-sodium silicate grout were investigated by evaluating the changes in unconfined compressive strength,moisture content,and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of samples with time in different pH media.The results indicate that peats treated by cement-silicate have higher strength than peats treated by cement,due to an increase in pH value of the media.Furthermore,cement and cement-silicate are highly effective in reducing the moisture content and void ratio of the treated peats.The microstructures of treated peats support the laboratory test results. 展开更多
