Pair Plasma

Aim: The role of circRNAs in esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC) remains unclear. Materials & methods: Here we profiled six pair plasma circRNA in ESCC based on RNA sequencing, and then verified the elevation of hsa_circ_0004771 in 20 cancer tissues and 105 pair case–control plasma samples by quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR. Results: The upregulation of hsa_circ_0004771 was correlated with heavier tumor burden and poor prognosis, knockdown of it inhibited the ESCC cells proliferation both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, hsa_circ_0004771 positively regulated CDC25A by acting as a molecular sponge of miR-339-5p and rescue assay confirmed this regulatory relationship. Conclusion: These results suggested that hsa_circ_0004771 can serve as a general less-invasive biomarker and may provide diagnostic and prognostic value in carcinoma.

Local Injections

Abstract Background Endoscopic resection is the treatment of choice for early esophageal cancers. However, resections comprising more than 70–80 % of the circumference are associated with a high risk of stricture formation. Currently, repetitive local injections and/or systemic steroids are given for prevention. Case report We present here the case of a 78-year-old male patient who had a near circumferential endoscopic submucosal dissection for a pT1a mm, L0, V0, R0, G2 esophageal squamous cell cancer. At the end of endoscopic resection, 80 mg of triamcinolone was injected locally. The patient was then treated with oro-dispersible budesonide tablets (2 × 1 mg/day) and nystatin (4 × 100 000 I.E.) for 8 weeks. This treatment resulted in complete healing without any stricture formation and did not result in any complications. Discussion Treatment with orodispersible budesonide tablets could help prevent strictures after large endoscopic resections in the esophagus.

Cardiac Dose

AbstractWe aimed to determine the prognostic significance of cardiac dose and hematological immunity parameters in esophageal cancer patients after concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). During 2010–2015, we identified 101 newly diagnosed esophageal squamous cell cancer patients who had completed definitive CCRT. Patients' clinical, dosimetric, and hematological data, including absolute neutrophil count, absolute lymphocyte count, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), at baseline, during, and post-CCRT were analyzed. Cox proportional hazards were calculated to identify potential risk factors for overall survival (OS). Median OS was 13 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 10.38–15.63). Univariate analysis revealed that male sex, poor performance status, advanced nodal stage, higher percentage of heart receiving 10 Gy (heart V10), and higher NLR (baseline and follow-up) were significantly associated with worse OS. In multivariate analysis, performance status (ECOG 0 & 1 vs. 2; hazard ratio [HR] 3.12, 95% CI 1.30–7.48), heart V10 (> 84% vs. ≤ 84%; HR 2.24, 95% CI 1.26–3.95), baseline NLR (> 3.56 vs. ≤ 3.56; HR 2.36, 95% CI 1.39–4.00), and follow-up NLR (> 7.4 vs. ≤ 7.4; HR 1.95, 95% CI 1.12–3.41) correlated with worse OS. Volume of low cardiac dose and NLR (baseline and follow-up) were associated with worse patient survival.
