Methods: from February 2018 to February 2020, the clinical data of 36 pregnant women with blood type not blood O in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed, and the IgG anti-A (B) titer was measured and the relationship with HDN was observed. Results: in 36 cases of blood O pregnant women, IgG antibody A(B) titer less than 1:64 was 41.67%, HDN production rate was 6.67%;IgG antibody A(B) titer equal to 1:64 was 19.44%, and HDN production rate was 28.57%. IgG antibody A(B) titer = 1:128 was 13.89%, and HDN production rate was 40.00%. The titer of IgG against A(B) was 1:256, which was 16.67%, and the HDN production rate was 50.00%. The titer of IgG anti-A (B) was more than or equal to 1:552, 8.33%, and the HDN production rate was 66.67%. The titer of IgG anti-A (B) was positively correlated with the HDN production rate, and the difference was very significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: the pregnant female IgG anti-A (B) titer of blood O is closely related to HDN. The higher the IgG anti-A (B) titer is, the more people suffer from HDN. Clinical should be to IgG anti-a (B) titer high pregnant women and fetus, newborn increased observation, as early as possible to take intervention measures.展开更多

However, results are not consistent. In this population-based case-control study including 1204 incident endometrial cancer cases and 1212 population controls, we examined the association of self-reported serologic blood type with endometrial cancer risk using a logistic regression model. Women with endometrial cancer were more likely to have blood type A. Compared to women with blood type O, the adjusted odds ratios for endometrial cancer were 1.00 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.79-1.28] for type B, 1.24 (95% CI, 0.90-1.69) for type AB, and 1.50 (95% CI, 1.19-1.90) for type A. A significant dose-response relationship was observed for cancer risk and level of antigen A (P for trend = 0.0003). The positive association of blood type A with cancer risk was observed regardless of menopausal status, body mass index, oral contraceptive use, or family cancer history. Our results suggest that ABO blood type may be involved in the development of endometrial cancer.展开更多

METHODS: Our analysis included a cohort of 1017 patients with pancreatic ductal cancer diagnosed at our hospital in Tokyo. They were divided into two groups: 114 patients with long-standing type 2 diabetes (DM group, defined as diabetes lasting for at least three years before the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer) and 903 patients without diabetes (non-DM group). Multivariate analysis was performed to identify factors that are associated with long-standing diabetes. The DM group was further divided into three subgroups according to the duration of diabetes (3-5 years, 5.1-14.9 years, and 15 years or more) and univariate analyses were performed. RESULTS: Of the 883 pancreatic cancer patients with serologically assessed ABO blood type, 217 (24.6%) had blood type O. Compared with the non-DM group, the DM group had a higher frequency of blood type B [odds ratio (OR) = 2.61, 95%CI: 1.24-5.47; reference group: blood type A]. Moreover, male (OR = 3.17, 95%CI: 1.67-6.06), older than 70 years of age (OR = 2.19, 95%CI: 1.20-3.98) and presence of a family history of diabetes (OR = 6.21, 95%CI: 3.38-11.36) were associated with long-standing type 2 diabetes. The mean ages were 64.8 ± 9.2 years, 67.1 ± 9.8 years, and 71.7 ± 7.0 years in the subgroups with the duration of diabetes, 3-5 years, 5.1-14.9 years, and 15 years or more, respectively (P = 0.007). A comparison of ABO blood type distribution among the subgroups also showed a significant difference (P = 0.03). CONCLUSION: The association of pancreatic cancer with blood type and duration of diabetes needs to be further examined in prospective studies.展开更多

The aim of this study was to analyze survival of pancreatic cancer patients who underwent surgical resection based on serotype-defined ABO blood types. Methods: In terms of ABO blood types and gemcitabine-based adjuvant therapy, we investigated the survival of 153 patients who underwent pancreatectomy for pancreatic cancer at the Department of Surgery and Oncology,KyushuUniversity(Fukuoka,Japan). Results: Among the four blood type groups, the O serotype group (median survival time (MST): 47.9 months) showed the best prognostic outcome. The A serotype group (MST: 22.5 months) showed the second best prognostic outcome, followed by the AB serotype group (MST: 20.4 months). The B serotype group (MST: 15 months) showed the worst prognostic outcome when considering the MST after the surgical resection. Next, we examined the effect of adjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine based on the ABO blood types. The A serotype group showed the greatest improvement in prognosis by adjuvant therapy with gemcitabine after the surgical resection. The other three serotype groups showed no significant differences in the prognostic outcomes between subgroups with and without gemcitabine therapy. Conclusions: The present data suggest the possibility that ABO blood types are prognostic factors for pancreatic cancer patients after surgical treatment and are also predictive factors for the chemosensitivity to gemcitabine of pancreatic cancer patients after pancreatectomy.展开更多

The aims of this study were to study BG types and BG-antigens in pancreatic intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms(IPMNs). METHODS: BG type and tumor BG-antigen(glycoprotein) expression(studied by immunohistochemistry on tissue microarrays) were analyzed with regard to characteristics of 101 surgically resected pancreatic IPMNs. RESULTS: Non-O BG type predicted invasive carcinoma independently from high serum CA19-9 and male gender. BG type A was observed more frequently in women than in men. Chronic pancreatitis was more frequently seen in patients with BG type B or AB. Aberrant tumor expression(with regard to BG type) of loss of A antigen expression type occurred in 15.0% of IPMNs and of loss of B antigen expression type in 62.5% of IPMNs. Intraneoplasm BG-antigen expression was not related to dysplasia grade or invasion. CONCLUSION: The results of the study suggest that in pancreatic IPMN, non-O BG type predicted invasive carcinoma, whereas for intratumor BG-antigen expression no specific patterns were detected with regard to the progression of glandular epithelial dysplasia or invasion.展开更多

文摘Objective: to study the correlation between the preeclampsia IgG antibody A(B) titer and hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN). Methods: from February 2018 to February 2020, the clinical data of 36 pregnant women with blood type not blood O in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed, and the IgG anti-A (B) titer was measured and the relationship with HDN was observed. Results: in 36 cases of blood O pregnant women, IgG antibody A(B) titer less than 1:64 was 41.67%, HDN production rate was 6.67%;IgG antibody A(B) titer equal to 1:64 was 19.44%, and HDN production rate was 28.57%. IgG antibody A(B) titer = 1:128 was 13.89%, and HDN production rate was 40.00%. The titer of IgG against A(B) was 1:256, which was 16.67%, and the HDN production rate was 50.00%. The titer of IgG anti-A (B) was more than or equal to 1:552, 8.33%, and the HDN production rate was 66.67%. The titer of IgG anti-A (B) was positively correlated with the HDN production rate, and the difference was very significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: the pregnant female IgG anti-A (B) titer of blood O is closely related to HDN. The higher the IgG anti-A (B) titer is, the more people suffer from HDN. Clinical should be to IgG anti-a (B) titer high pregnant women and fetus, newborn increased observation, as early as possible to take intervention measures.
文摘Background:A positive association between the ABO blood types and survival has been suggested in several malignancies.The aim of this study was to assess the role of the ABO blood types in predicting the prognosis of Chinese patients with curatively resected non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods:We retrospectively analyzed 1601 consecutive Chinese patients who underwent curative surgery for NSCLC between January 1,2005 and December 31,2009.The relationship between the ABO blood types and survival was investigated.In addition,univariate and multivariate analyses were performed.Results:Group 1(patients with the blood type O or B) had significantly prolonged overall survival(OS) compared with group 2(patients with the blood type A or AB),with a median OS of 74.9 months versus 61.5 months[hazard ratio(HR) 0.83;95%confidence interval(CI) 0.72-0.96;P = 0.015].Additionally,group 1 had significantly longer disease-free survival(DFS;HR 0.86;95%CI 0.76-0.98;P = 0.022) and locoregional relapse-free survival(LRFS;HR 0.79;95%CI 0.64-0.98;P = 0.024) than group 2.The association was not significantly modified by other risk factors for NSCLC,including smoking status,pathologic tumor-node-metastasis stage,pT category,pN category,and chemotherapy.Conclusions:There is an association between the ABO blood types and the survival of Chinese patients with resected NSCLC.Patients with the blood type O or B had significantly prolonged OS,DFS,and LRFS compared with those with the blood type A or AB.

文摘ABO blood type has been associated with risk of several malignancies. However, results are not consistent. In this population-based case-control study including 1204 incident endometrial cancer cases and 1212 population controls, we examined the association of self-reported serologic blood type with endometrial cancer risk using a logistic regression model. Women with endometrial cancer were more likely to have blood type A. Compared to women with blood type O, the adjusted odds ratios for endometrial cancer were 1.00 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.79-1.28] for type B, 1.24 (95% CI, 0.90-1.69) for type AB, and 1.50 (95% CI, 1.19-1.90) for type A. A significant dose-response relationship was observed for cancer risk and level of antigen A (P for trend = 0.0003). The positive association of blood type A with cancer risk was observed regardless of menopausal status, body mass index, oral contraceptive use, or family cancer history. Our results suggest that ABO blood type may be involved in the development of endometrial cancer.
文摘AIM: To retrospectively study pancreatic cancer patients with respect to their ABO blood type and diabetes. METHODS: Our analysis included a cohort of 1017 patients with pancreatic ductal cancer diagnosed at our hospital in Tokyo. They were divided into two groups: 114 patients with long-standing type 2 diabetes (DM group, defined as diabetes lasting for at least three years before the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer) and 903 patients without diabetes (non-DM group). Multivariate analysis was performed to identify factors that are associated with long-standing diabetes. The DM group was further divided into three subgroups according to the duration of diabetes (3-5 years, 5.1-14.9 years, and 15 years or more) and univariate analyses were performed. RESULTS: Of the 883 pancreatic cancer patients with serologically assessed ABO blood type, 217 (24.6%) had blood type O. Compared with the non-DM group, the DM group had a higher frequency of blood type B [odds ratio (OR) = 2.61, 95%CI: 1.24-5.47; reference group: blood type A]. Moreover, male (OR = 3.17, 95%CI: 1.67-6.06), older than 70 years of age (OR = 2.19, 95%CI: 1.20-3.98) and presence of a family history of diabetes (OR = 6.21, 95%CI: 3.38-11.36) were associated with long-standing type 2 diabetes. The mean ages were 64.8 ± 9.2 years, 67.1 ± 9.8 years, and 71.7 ± 7.0 years in the subgroups with the duration of diabetes, 3-5 years, 5.1-14.9 years, and 15 years or more, respectively (P = 0.007). A comparison of ABO blood type distribution among the subgroups also showed a significant difference (P = 0.03). CONCLUSION: The association of pancreatic cancer with blood type and duration of diabetes needs to be further examined in prospective studies.

文摘Background:The prognostic significance of ABO blood type for lymphoma is largely unknown.We evaluated the prognostic role of ABO blood type in patients with extranodal natural killer(NK)/T-cell lymphoma(ENKTL).Methods:We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 697 patients with newly diagnosed ENKTL from three cancer centers.The prognostic value of ABO blood type was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional hazard models.The prognostic values of the International Prognostic Index(IPI) and the Korean Prognostic Index(KPI)were also evaluated.Results:Compared with patients with blood type O,those with blood type non-O tended to display elevated baseline serum C-reactive protein levels(P=0.038),lower rate of complete remission(P=0.005),shorter progression-free survival(PFS,P<0.001),and shorter overall survival(OS,P=0.001).Patients with blood type O/AB had longer PFS(P<0.001) and OS(P=0.001) compared with those with blood type A/B.Multivariate analysis demonstrated that age >60 years(P<0.001),mass ≥5 cm(P=0.001),stage Ⅲ/Ⅳ(P<0.001),elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) levels(P=0.001),and blood type non-O were independent adverse predictors of OS(P=0.001).ABO blood type was found to be superior to both the IPI in discriminating patients with different outcomes in the IPI low-risk group and the KPI in distinguishing between the intermediate-to-low-and high-to-intermediate-risk groups.Conclusions:ABO blood type was an independent predictor of clinical outcome for patients with ENKTL.
文摘Background/Purpose: A recent genome-wide association study (PanScan) identified significant association between the ABO gene locus and the risk of pancreatic cancer. The aim of this study was to analyze survival of pancreatic cancer patients who underwent surgical resection based on serotype-defined ABO blood types. Methods: In terms of ABO blood types and gemcitabine-based adjuvant therapy, we investigated the survival of 153 patients who underwent pancreatectomy for pancreatic cancer at the Department of Surgery and Oncology,KyushuUniversity(Fukuoka,Japan). Results: Among the four blood type groups, the O serotype group (median survival time (MST): 47.9 months) showed the best prognostic outcome. The A serotype group (MST: 22.5 months) showed the second best prognostic outcome, followed by the AB serotype group (MST: 20.4 months). The B serotype group (MST: 15 months) showed the worst prognostic outcome when considering the MST after the surgical resection. Next, we examined the effect of adjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine based on the ABO blood types. The A serotype group showed the greatest improvement in prognosis by adjuvant therapy with gemcitabine after the surgical resection. The other three serotype groups showed no significant differences in the prognostic outcomes between subgroups with and without gemcitabine therapy. Conclusions: The present data suggest the possibility that ABO blood types are prognostic factors for pancreatic cancer patients after surgical treatment and are also predictive factors for the chemosensitivity to gemcitabine of pancreatic cancer patients after pancreatectomy.

文摘Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of Shexiang Tongxin Dropping Pills combined with rosuvastatin calcium and clopidogrel bisulfate tablets in treating phlegm-heat and blood stasis type angina pectoris of coronary heart disease.Methods:Sixty-four patients with phlegm-heat and blood stasis type angina pectoris of coronary heart disease,hospitalized at Lin’an District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2024 to April 2025,were selected and randomly divided into a control group(administered 10mg of rosuvastatin calcium and 75mg of clopidogrel bisulfate once daily)and an observation group(administered 2 Shexiang Tongxin Dropping Pills three times daily in addition to the control group’s treatment regimen),with 32 patients in each group.The therapeutic effects of the two groups were compared.Results:After 56 days of treatment,the angina pectoris score in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(4.49±0.39 vs 4.88±0.47,p<0.05);the Seattle Angina Questionnaire(SAQ)score indicated improvement in the frequency of angina pectoris attacks.(SAQ-AF:71.35±5.29 vs.64.25±7.55,p<0.05)and treatment satisfaction(SAQ-TS:58.79±6.22 vs.54.16±5.02,p<0.05)were more significantly improved in the observation group.The total effective rate(96.87%vs.90.62%,p<0.05)and marked effective rate(62.50%vs.31.25%)were higher in the observation group than in the control group.The Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)syndrome score(4.49±0.39 vs.4.88±0.47,p<0.05)and lipid index(LDL-C:1.79±0.31 vs.1.99±0.33 mmol/L,p<0.05)decreased more significantly in the observation group.Conclusion:Shexiang Tongxin Dropping Pills combined with rosuvastatin calcium and clopidogrel bisulfate tablets demonstrated good efficacy and high safety in the treatment of phlegm-heat and blood stasis type angina pectoris associated with coronary heart disease.
文摘BACKGROUND: There are few data on blood group(BG) types and types of pancreatic cancers. The aims of this study were to study BG types and BG-antigens in pancreatic intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms(IPMNs). METHODS: BG type and tumor BG-antigen(glycoprotein) expression(studied by immunohistochemistry on tissue microarrays) were analyzed with regard to characteristics of 101 surgically resected pancreatic IPMNs. RESULTS: Non-O BG type predicted invasive carcinoma independently from high serum CA19-9 and male gender. BG type A was observed more frequently in women than in men. Chronic pancreatitis was more frequently seen in patients with BG type B or AB. Aberrant tumor expression(with regard to BG type) of loss of A antigen expression type occurred in 15.0% of IPMNs and of loss of B antigen expression type in 62.5% of IPMNs. Intraneoplasm BG-antigen expression was not related to dysplasia grade or invasion. CONCLUSION: The results of the study suggest that in pancreatic IPMN, non-O BG type predicted invasive carcinoma, whereas for intratumor BG-antigen expression no specific patterns were detected with regard to the progression of glandular epithelial dysplasia or invasion.

文摘BACKGROUND The Borrmann classification system is used to describe the macroscopic appearance of advanced gastric cancer,and Borrmann typeⅣdisease is independently associated with a poor prognosis.AIM To evaluate the prognostic significance of lymphatic and/or blood vessel invasion(LBVI)combined with the Borrmann type in advanced proximal gastric cancer(APGC).METHODS The clinicopathological and survival data of 440 patients with APGC who underwent curative surgery between 2005 and 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.RESULTS In these 440 patients,LBVI+status was associated with Borrmann typeⅣ,low histological grade,large tumor size,and advanced pT and pN status.The 5-year survival rate of LBVI+patients was significantly lower than that of LBVI– patients,although LBVI was not an independent prognostic factor in the multivariate analysis.No significant difference in the prognosis of patients with Borrmann typeⅢ/LBVI+disease and patients with Borrmann typeⅣdisease was observed.Therefore,we proposed a revised Borrmann typeⅣ(r-BorⅣ)as Borrmann typeⅢplus LBVI+,and found that r-BorⅣwas associated with poor prognosis in patients with APGC,which outweighed the prognostic significance of pT status.CONCLUSION LBVI is related to the prognosis of APGC,but is not an independent prognostic factor.LBVI status can be used to differentiate Borrmann typesⅢandⅣ,and the same approach can be used to treat r-BorⅣand Borrmann typeⅣ.
