Background: Despite the promise of mail-based human papillomavirus (HPV) self-collection programs for increasing cervical cancer screening, few have been evaluated in the United States. We report the results of a mail-based HPV self-collection program for underscreened women living in Appalachia.

Methods: We conducted a group randomized trial during 2021-2022 in the Appalachian regions of Kentucky, Ohio, Virginia, and West Virgnia. Participants were women ages 30-64 who were underscreened for cervical cancer and from a participating health system. Participants in the intervention group (n=464) were mailed an HPV self-collection kit followed by telephone-based patient navigation (if needed), and participants in the usual care group (n=338) were mailed a reminder letter to get a clinic-based cervical cancer screening test. Generalized linear mixed models compared cervical cancer screening between study groups.

Results: Overall, 14.9% of participants in the intervention group and 5.0% of participants in the usual care group were screened for cervical cancer. The mail-based HPV self-collection intervention increased cervical cancer screening compared to the usual care group (OR=3.30, 95% CI: 1.90-5.72, p=0.005). One or more high-risk HPV types were detected in 10.5% of the returned HPV self-collection kits. Among participants in the intervention group who patient navigators attempted to contact, 44.2% were successfully reached.

Conclusions: HPV self-collection increased cervical cancer screening, and future efforts are needed to determine how to optimize such programs, including the delivery of patient navigation services.

Impact: Mail-based HPV self-collection programs are a viable strategy for increasing cervical cancer screening among underscreened women living in Appalachia.

背景:尽管邮寄人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)自采项目有望提高宫颈癌筛查率,但在美国进行评估的项目很少。我们报告了针对生活在阿巴拉契亚地区筛查不足的妇女开展的基于邮件的 HPV 自我收集计划的结果:方法:2021-2022 年期间,我们在肯塔基州、俄亥俄州、弗吉尼亚州和西弗吉尼亚州的阿巴拉契亚地区开展了一项团体随机试验。参与者为 30-64 岁、宫颈癌筛查不足的女性,来自参与试验的医疗系统。干预组的参与者(人数=464)会被邮寄HPV自取试剂盒,随后(如有需要)还会接受电话患者指导;常规护理组的参与者(人数=338)会被邮寄一封提醒信,提醒她们接受诊所提供的宫颈癌筛查测试。广义线性混合模型比较了各研究组的宫颈癌筛查情况:总体而言,干预组中有 14.9% 的参与者接受了宫颈癌筛查,常规护理组中有 5.0% 的参与者接受了宫颈癌筛查。与常规护理组相比,邮寄 HPV 自我收集干预措施提高了宫颈癌筛查率(OR=3.30,95% CI:1.90-5.72,p=0.005)。在 10.5%退回的 HPV 自采试剂盒中检测到一种或多种高危 HPV 类型。在患者导航员尝试联系的干预组参与者中,44.2%的人成功联系上了患者导航员:结论:HPV自采提高了宫颈癌筛查率,今后需要努力确定如何优化此类项目,包括提供患者指导服务:影响:基于邮件的 HPV 自我收集计划是提高阿巴拉契亚地区筛查不足妇女宫颈癌筛查率的可行策略。

Background: Ferritin, an iron storage protein and acute phase reactant, has been implicated in various aspects of human health and disease, including cancer. Previous studies have identified elevated serum ferritin (SF) levels in several cancer types, but a comprehensive examination across different malignancies remains lacking. This study aims to fill this gap by utilizing anonymized data from Maccabi Health Services (MHS), one of Israel's largest health organizations, to explore the association between elevated SF levels and the diagnosis of different malignancies.

Methods: An extensive dataset from MHS, comprising 2.7 million members, including 1.3 million individuals who underwent SF level testing, was analyzed. Odds Ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated to assess the association between high SF levels and cancer diagnosis. Subgroup analysis was conducted to investigate variations across different malignancies.

Results: The analysis revealed a significant association between elevated SF levels and cancer diagnosis among MHS members, with an OR of 1.9 (95% CI 1.71-2.15). Sub- group analysis unveiled differences in the association across malignancy types, with hematological, hepatobiliary and respiratory malignancies more strongly associated with high SF levels.

Conclusions: This study provides further support for the link between elevated SF levels and malignancy, leveraging a vast dataset from MHS, underscoring potential utilities of elevated SF levels as a potential indicator for cancer with a variable role among different malignancy types.

Impact: The identification of elevated SF levels as a potential indicator for underlying malignancy for seemingly-healthy individuals.

背景:铁蛋白是一种铁储存蛋白和急性时相反应物,与人类健康和疾病(包括癌症)的各个方面都有关系。以前的研究已发现几种癌症类型的血清铁蛋白(SF)水平升高,但仍缺乏对不同恶性肿瘤的全面检查。本研究旨在利用以色列最大的医疗机构之一马卡比医疗服务公司(Maccabi Health Services,MHS)的匿名数据填补这一空白,探讨 SF 水平升高与不同恶性肿瘤诊断之间的关联:方法:分析了马卡比医疗服务的大量数据集,这些数据集包括 270 万名会员,其中 130 万人接受了 SF 水平检测。计算了几率比(OR)和95%置信区间(CI),以评估高SF水平与癌症诊断之间的关联。还进行了分组分析,以研究不同恶性肿瘤之间的差异:分析结果显示,在MHS成员中,SF水平升高与癌症诊断之间存在明显的关联,OR值为1.9(95% CI为1.71-2.15)。分组分析揭示了不同恶性肿瘤类型之间的关联差异,血液、肝胆和呼吸系统恶性肿瘤与 SF 水平高的关联度更高:这项研究进一步证实了 SF 水平升高与恶性肿瘤之间的联系,利用了来自 MHS 的大量数据集,强调了 SF 水平升高作为癌症潜在指标的潜在作用,在不同恶性肿瘤类型中的作用各不相同:对于看似健康的人来说,将 SF 水平升高确定为潜在恶性肿瘤的潜在指标。

Background: Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) exhibits differences in molecular and biological characteristics compared to invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). We aim to compare breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) between patients with ILC and IDC.

Methods: We used data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (1992-2020). Logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify factors associated with treatment modalities. We examined BCSS at different time points using a cox regression model with time-dependent coefficient.

Results: 343,397 patients with IDC and 39,859 patients with ILC were included. Patients with ILC had more advanced stage disease (stage II, 35% vs. 34%; stage III, 16% vs.11%), and higher rate of hormone receptor-positive disease (97% vs. 81%). Compared to patients with IDC, patients with ILC had better BCSS in the first five years (Hazard ratio [HR]=0.71, p <0.001), but worse BCSS in later years (HR=1.30, p<0.001 in year 6-10; HR=1.75, p<0.001 in year 11-15; HR=2.17, p<0.001 in year 16-20).

Conclusions: Patients with ILC survive better in early years but worse in later years compared to patients with IDC. Future studies are required to identify patients with ILC who are at risk of late recurrence or mortality.

Impact: The results of this study add to the currently conflicting literature of survival of ILC and demonstrate the importance of evaluating novel therapeutic approaches and extended therapy for patients with ILC.

背景:浸润性小叶癌(ILC)与浸润性导管癌(IDC)相比,在分子和生物学特征方面存在差异。我们旨在比较ILC和IDC患者的乳腺癌特异性生存率(BCSS):我们使用了监测、流行病学和最终结果数据库(1992-2020 年)中的数据。我们进行了逻辑回归分析,以确定与治疗方式相关的因素。我们使用具有时间依赖性系数的考克斯回归模型研究了不同时间点的 BCSS:共纳入 343,397 例 IDC 患者和 39,859 例 ILC 患者。ILC患者的疾病分期更晚(II期,35%对34%;III期,16%对11%),激素受体阳性率更高(97%对81%)。与IDC患者相比,ILC患者在前五年的BCSS较好(危险比[HR]=0.71,P 结论:ILC患者在早期存活率较高:与IDC患者相比,ILC患者早年存活率更高,但晚年存活率更低。未来的研究需要确定哪些 ILC 患者有晚期复发或死亡的风险:本研究结果补充了目前关于ILC存活率的相互矛盾的文献,并证明了评估新型治疗方法和延长ILC患者治疗时间的重要性。

Background: Improvements in cancer control have led to a drastic increase in cancer survivors who may be at an elevated risk of developing subsequent primary cancers (SPC). In this study, we assessed the risk and patterns of SPC development among 196,858 adult cancer survivors in Alberta, Canada.

Methods: We used data from the Alberta Cancer Registry to identify all first primary cancers occurring between 2004 and 2020. A SPC was considered as the next primary cancer occurring in a different site. We estimated standardized incidence ratios (SIR) for SPC development as the observed number of SPC (O) divided by the expected number of SPC (E), where E is a weighted-sum of the population-based year-age-sex-specific incidence rates and the corresponding person-years of follow-up.

Results: The risk of developing a SPC up to fifteen years after an initial cancer was 16.2% for males and 12.2% for females. Overall, both males (SIR=1.50) and females (SIR=1.58) had an increased risk of a SPC. There were significant increases in SPC risk for nearly all age groups, with a greater than 5-fold increase for survivors diagnosed between ages 18-39. Screen-detectable cancers including colorectal, lung, cervix, and breast accounted for 46% and 27% of SPCs among females and males.

Conclusions: Cancer survivors of nearly every initial site had substantially increased risk of a SPC, compared to the cancer risk in the general population.

Impact: Screen-detectable cancers were common SPC sites and highlights the need to investigate optimal strategies for screening the growing population of cancer survivors.

背景:随着癌症控制水平的提高,癌症幸存者的人数急剧增加,他们罹患后续原发性癌症(SPC)的风险也随之升高。在这项研究中,我们评估了加拿大艾伯塔省 196,858 名成年癌症幸存者罹患 SPC 的风险和模式:我们利用艾伯塔省癌症登记处的数据,确定了 2004 年至 2020 年间发生的所有首次原发性癌症。SPC被认为是发生在不同部位的下一次原发性癌症。我们用观察到的SPC数量(O)除以预期的SPC数量(E)来估算SPC发病的标准化发病率(SIR),其中E是基于人口的年-性别特异性发病率和相应的随访人-年的加权和:在初次患癌后十五年内,男性罹患 SPC 的风险为 16.2%,女性为 12.2%。总体而言,男性(SIR=1.50)和女性(SIR=1.58)罹患 SPC 的风险都有所增加。几乎所有年龄组的 SPC 风险都明显增加,18-39 岁之间确诊的幸存者的 SPC 风险增加了 5 倍多。筛查出的癌症包括结直肠癌、肺癌、宫颈癌和乳腺癌,分别占女性和男性SPC的46%和27%:结论:与普通人群的癌症风险相比,几乎所有初始部位的癌症幸存者患 SPC 的风险都大大增加:影响:可筛查出的癌症是常见的 SPC 病变部位,这表明有必要研究筛查不断增长的癌症幸存者人群的最佳策略。

Background: HPV vaccination coverage is characterized by geographic disparities in the US, with national studies finding lower coverage in rural versus nonrural areas. To direct quality improvement efforts in North Carolina, we sought to understand how different rurality measures characterize these disparities.

Methods: We used separate negative binomial regression models to test associations between 5 dichotomized county-level rurality measures and HPV vaccination coverage (≥1 dose) among North Carolina adolescents, ages 11-12 (n=326,345). Rurality measures were derived from: Office of Management and Budget's Metropolitan Statistical Areas, Rural-Urban Continuum Codes, Index of Relative Rurality, US Census Bureau classifications, and North Carolina Rural Center classifications. Models controlled for Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) percentile and rate of pediatricians per county. Vaccination data came from the North Carolina Immunization Registry.

Results: HPV vaccination coverage was 29% across North Carolina's 100 counties (range: 13%, 46%). Agreement between rurality measures ranged from 54% to 93% of counties. In adjusted analyses, none of the 5 rurality measures correlated with HPV vaccination coverage, but higher SVI and higher rate of pediatricians were positively associated with coverage (p< 0.01). Exploratory moderation analyses suggested regional variation in the relationship between rurality and coverage, with a positive association in one region, a negative association in one region, and no association in four regions.

Conclusions: County-level rurality measures did not identify disparities in HPV vaccination coverage in North Carolina.

Impact: Measures related to social vulnerability and access to pediatricians may be better suited for understanding and addressing the state's substantial county-level vaccination disparities.

背景:在美国,HPV 疫苗接种覆盖率存在地域差异,全国性研究发现农村地区的覆盖率低于非农村地区。为了指导北卡罗来纳州的质量改进工作,我们试图了解不同的农村地区衡量标准是如何描述这些差异的:我们使用了单独的负二项回归模型来检验北卡罗来纳州 11-12 岁青少年(n=326,345)中 5 个二分法县级农村测量值与 HPV 疫苗接种覆盖率(≥1 剂)之间的关联。乡镇化指标来源于:管理和预算办公室的大都市统计区、农村-城市连续代码、相对乡镇化指数、美国人口普查局分类以及北卡罗来纳州乡镇中心分类。模型控制了社会弱势指数 (SVI) 百分位数和每个县的儿科医生比例。疫苗接种数据来自北卡罗来纳州免疫登记处:北卡罗来纳州 100 个县的 HPV 疫苗接种覆盖率为 29%(范围:13%-46%)。各县之间的乡土性测量结果一致率从 54% 到 93% 不等。在调整后的分析中,5 个乡镇测量指标均与 HPV 疫苗接种覆盖率无关,但较高的 SVI 和较高的儿科医生比例与覆盖率呈正相关(p< 0.01)。探索性调节分析表明,乡土性与覆盖率之间的关系存在地区差异,一个地区呈正相关,一个地区呈负相关,四个地区无相关:结论:县级农村地区的衡量标准并不能确定北卡罗来纳州 HPV 疫苗接种覆盖率的差异:影响:与社会脆弱性和获得儿科医生服务相关的措施可能更适合用于了解和解决该州县级疫苗接种率的巨大差异。

Background: Annual mammography screening declined year-on-year during the COVID-19 pandemic through 2021. This study examined changes in 2022 compared to 2018 in the national prevalence of self-reported up-to-date mammography.

Methods: Using 2018-2022 data from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), we assess relative changes defined as annual prevalence ratios (aPR) in the SR receipt of past-year and up-to-date (UTD) breast cancer screening (bi-annual mammography in women ages 50-74 years) during the third year of the COVID-19 pandemic overall and by sociodemographic characteristics.

Results: UTD BC screening declined for the first time since 2018 (2018 compared to 2022, from 78.7% to 76.6%; aPR, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.96-0.98), despite a small increase in past-year breast cancer screening from 2020 and 2022 (57.9% to 59.6%; aPR, 1.03; 95% CI, 1.01-1.05). This translated to 747,791 fewer women reporting UTD with recommended BC screening in 2022 vs. 2018. UTD BC screening declines between 2018-2022 were largest for American Indian/Alaska Native women (74.8% to 62.2%; aPR, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.74-0.93), women with less formal educational attainment (< high school: 73.1% to 65.5%; aPR, 0.9; 95% CI, 0.85-0.95), and women without a usual source of care (48% to 42.9%; aPR, 0.85; 95% CI, 0.78-0.92).

Conclusions: Previously noted pandemic-related declines in past-year BC screening now reflect in women reporting being UTD, with the largest declines in AI/AN and lower SES women.

Impact: Future studies should monitor screening prevalence in relation to BC diagnostic stage, overall and by sociodemographic groups.

背景:在COVID-19大流行期间至2021年,乳腺X线照相术年筛查率逐年下降。本研究考察了 2022 年与 2018 年相比,全国自我报告的最新乳腺放射摄影流行率的变化情况:利用疾病控制和预防中心(CDC)行为风险因素监测系统(BRFSS)提供的2018-2022年数据,我们评估了COVID-19大流行第三年期间SR接受过去一年和最新(UTD)乳腺癌筛查(50-74岁女性一年两次乳房X线照相术)的相对变化(定义为年流行率比(aPR)):自2018年以来,UTD BC筛查率首次下降(2018年与2022年相比,从78.7%降至76.6%;aPR,0.97;95% CI,0.96-0.98),尽管从2020年到2022年,上一年的乳腺癌筛查率略有增加(57.9%增至59.6%;aPR,1.03;95% CI,1.01-1.05)。这意味着 2022 年与 2018 年相比,报告UTD 接受建议 BC 筛查的女性人数减少了 747 791 人。2018-2022年期间,美国印第安人/阿拉斯加原住民妇女(74.8%降至62.2%;aPR,0.83;95% CI,0.74-0.93)、正规教育程度较低的妇女(<高中:73.1%降至65.5%;aPR,0.9;95% CI,0.85-0.95)和没有惯常护理来源的妇女(48%降至42.9%;aPR,0.85;95% CI,0.78-0.92)的UTD BC筛查下降幅度最大:结论:之前注意到的与大流行相关的上一年 BC 筛查率的下降现在反映在报告未接受筛查的女性中,其中下降幅度最大的是亚裔美国人/印第安人和社会经济地位较低的女性:影响:未来的研究应监测筛查流行率与 BC 诊断阶段的关系,包括总体流行率和社会人口群体流行率。

Background: Breast cancer (BC) incidence is increasing in women under age 40 years, underscoring the need for research on BC risk factors for younger women.

Methods: We used data from an international family cohort (n=26,348) to examine whether recreational physical activity (RPA) during adolescence and early adulthood are associated with BC risk before age 40. The cohort includes 2,502 women diagnosed with BC before age 40, including 2,408 diagnosed before study enrollment (68% within 5 years of enrollment). Women reported their average hours-per-week of moderate and strenuous RPA during adolescence (12-17 years) and early adulthood (25-34 years), which were converted to total age-adjusted metabolic equivalents-per-week and categorized into quartiles. We conducted attained age analyses until age 40 (follow-up time began at age 18) using Cox proportional hazards regression models adjusted for study center, race and ethnicity, and education.

Results: Being in the highest versus lowest quartile of RPA during adolescence and early adulthood were respectively associated with 12% [HR (95% CI): 0.88 (0.78, 0.98)] and 16% [HR (95% CI): 0.84 (0.74, 0.95) lower BC risks before age 40. Being in the highest quartile of RPA during both adolescence and early adulthood (Pearson correlation=0.52) versus neither timepoint was associated with a 22% lower risk [HR (95% CI): 0.78 (0.68, 0.89)].

Conclusions: Findings suggest that RPA during adolescence and early adulthood may lower BC risk before age 40.

Impact: Policies promoting physical activity during adolescence and early adulthood may be important for reducing the growing burden of breast cancer in younger women.

背景:乳腺癌(BC)发病率在 40 岁以下女性中呈上升趋势,这说明有必要对年轻女性的乳腺癌风险因素进行研究:我们利用一个国际家庭队列(n=26,348)的数据,研究青春期和成年早期的娱乐性体育活动(RPA)是否与 40 岁前的乳腺癌风险有关。该队列包括 2,502 名在 40 岁前确诊患有乳腺癌的女性,其中 2,408 名在研究注册前确诊(68% 在注册后 5 年内)。女性报告了她们在青春期(12-17 岁)和成年早期(25-34 岁)每周中等强度和剧烈强度 RPA 的平均小时数,这些小时数被转换为每周经年龄调整的总代谢当量,并分为四等分。我们使用根据研究中心、种族和民族以及教育程度进行调整的 Cox 比例危险回归模型,对 40 岁(随访时间从 18 岁开始)之前的达到年龄进行了分析:在青春期和成年早期,RPA处于最高四分位数与最低四分位数分别与40岁前 BC风险降低12%[HR (95% CI):0.88 (0.78, 0.98)]和16%[HR (95% CI):0.84 (0.74, 0.95)]有关。在青春期和成年早期均处于RPA最高四分位数(Pearson correlation=0.52)与两个时间点均不处于RPA最高四分位数相比,风险降低22%[HR(95% CI):0.78 (0.68, 0.89)]:研究结果表明,青春期和成年早期的 RPA 可降低 40 岁前的 BC 风险:影响:促进青春期和成年早期体育锻炼的政策可能对减轻年轻女性日益加重的乳腺癌负担非常重要。

Intrathoracic cancers, including lung cancer, mesothelioma, and thymoma, present diagnostic challenges in primary care. Biomarkers could resolve some challenges. We synthesized evidence on biomarkers performance for intrathoracic cancer detection in low-prevalence settings. A search in EMBASE and MEDLINE included studies that recruited participants with suspected intrathoracic cancer and reported on at least one diagnostic measure for a validated, non-invasive biomarker. Studies were excluded if participants were recruited based on a pre-established diagnosis. Fifty-two studies were included, reporting on 108 individual biomarkers and panels. CEA, CYFRA 21.1, and VEGF were evaluated for lung cancer and mesothelioma. For lung cancer, CEA and CYFRA 21.1 were most studied, with AUCs of 0.48-0.90 and 0.48-0.83, respectively. Pro-GRP and NSE had the highest NPVs (98.2%, 96.9%), while Early-CDT and MSC panels showed NPVs of 99.3% and 99.0% in smokers. For mesothelioma, Fibrillin-3 and mesothelin plus osteopontin had AUCs of 0.93 and 0.91, respectively. Thymoma panels (Binding AcHR + StrAb) and (Binding AcHR + Modulating AcHR + StrAb) had 100% NPVs in myasthenia gravis patients. The review highlights the performance of some biomarkers. However, few were evaluated in low-prevalence settings. Further evaluation is necessary before implementing these biomarkers for intrathoracic cancers in primary care.

胸腔内癌症,包括肺癌、间皮瘤和胸腺瘤,给初级医疗诊断带来了挑战。生物标志物可以解决一些难题。我们对生物标记物在低发病率环境下检测胸腔内癌症的性能证据进行了综合分析。我们在 EMBASE 和 MEDLINE 中检索了招募疑似胸腔内癌症患者并报告了至少一种经过验证的非侵入性生物标记物诊断指标的研究。如果参与者是根据预先确定的诊断结果招募的,则排除这些研究。共纳入 52 项研究,报告了 108 种生物标志物和生物标志物组。对肺癌和间皮瘤的 CEA、CYFRA 21.1 和血管内皮生长因子进行了评估。就肺癌而言,研究最多的是 CEA 和 CYFRA 21.1,其 AUC 分别为 0.48-0.90 和 0.48-0.83。Pro-GRP 和 NSE 的 NPV 值最高(98.2% 和 96.9%),而早期 CDT 和 MSC 面板在吸烟者中的 NPV 值分别为 99.3% 和 99.0%。对于间皮瘤,纤连蛋白-3 和间皮素加骨质素的 AUC 分别为 0.93 和 0.91。胸腺瘤试剂盒(结合AcHR + StrAb)和(结合AcHR + 调节AcHR + StrAb)在重症肌无力患者中的NPV为100%。综述强调了一些生物标记物的性能。然而,很少有生物标记物是在低发病率环境中进行评估的。在基层医疗机构对胸腔内癌症使用这些生物标记物之前,有必要进行进一步的评估。

Background: Biomarker analyses are an integral part of cancer research. Despite the intense efforts to identify and characterize biomarkers in cancer patients, little is known regarding the natural variation of biomarkers in healthy populations. Here we conducted a clinical study to evaluate the natural variability of biomarkers over time in healthy participants.

Methods: The angiome multiplex array, a panel of 25 circulating protein biomarkers, was assessed in 28 healthy participants across 8 timepoints over the span of 60 days. We utilized the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) to quantify the reliability of the biomarkers. Adjusted ICC values were calculated under the framework of a linear mixed-effects model, taking into consideration age, sex, body mass index (BMI), fasting status, and sampling factors.

Results: ICC was calculated to determine the reliability of each biomarker. HGF was the most stable marker (ICC=0.973), while PDGF-BB was the most variable marker (ICC=0.167). In total, ICC analyses revealed that 22 out of 25 measured biomarkers display good (≥0.4) to excellent (>0.75) ICC values. Three markers (PDGF-BB, TGF-1, PDGF-AA) had ICC values <0.4. Greater age was associated with higher IL-6 (p=0.0114). Higher BMI was associated with higher levels of IL-6 (p=0.0003) and VEGF-R3 (p=0.0045).

Conclusions: Of the 25 protein biomarkers measured over this short time period, 22 markers were found to have good or excellent ICC values, providing additional validation for this biomarker assay.

Impact: This data further supports the validation of the angiome biomarker assay and its application as an integrated biomarker in clinical trial testing.

背景:生物标志物分析是癌症研究不可或缺的一部分。尽管人们在识别和描述癌症患者的生物标志物方面付出了巨大努力,但对健康人群中生物标志物的自然变异却知之甚少。在此,我们进行了一项临床研究,以评估健康参与者体内生物标志物随时间的自然变化:血管组多重阵列是由 25 种循环蛋白生物标记物组成的小组,我们对 28 名健康参与者在 60 天内的 8 个时间点进行了评估。我们利用类内相关系数(ICC)来量化生物标记物的可靠性。在线性混合效应模型的框架下计算了调整后的 ICC 值,并考虑了年龄、性别、体重指数 (BMI)、空腹状态和取样因素:计算了 ICC 值,以确定每个生物标记物的可靠性。HGF是最稳定的标志物(ICC=0.973),而PDGF-BB则是变化最大的标志物(ICC=0.167)。总之,ICC 分析表明,25 个测量的生物标记物中有 22 个显示出良好(≥0.4)到卓越(>0.75)的 ICC 值。三个标记物(PDGF-BB、TGF-1、PDGF-AA)的 ICC 值为 结论:在短时间内测定的 25 种蛋白质生物标记物中,有 22 种标记物的 ICC 值为良好或极佳,为该生物标记物检测提供了更多验证:影响:这一数据进一步支持了血管组生物标志物测定的验证及其作为综合生物标志物在临床试验测试中的应用。

Background: The current e-cigarette market has been rapidly evolving with an increase in the share of high nicotine concentration vaping products. This study examined urinary biomarkers of exposure (BOEs) by nicotine concentration level among exclusive e-cigarette users.

Methods: Data were drawn from Wave 5 (December 2018-November 2019) of the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study. Between-subject differences in BOEs of nicotine, metal, tobacco-specific nitrosamine (TSNA), and volatile organic compounds (VOC) were examined across e-cigarettes containing nicotine or not (yes [n=300] vs. no [n=31] vs. non-tobacco use [n=3021]) and different nicotine concentration levels (0.1-1.7%, 1.8-4.9%, and 5.0%+).

Results: Among 3353 participants, exclusive e-cigarette users exhibited higher mean concentrations of nicotine metabolites than non-tobacco users. Nicotine e-cigarette users had higher concentrations of TNE2 (mean [95% CI]=21.8 [15.2-31.2] vs. 0.2 [0.1-0.6] nmol/mg creatinine, p<.0001) and cotinine (1418.2 [998.0-2015.4] vs. 12.2 [0.1-0.6], p<.0001) ng/mg creatinine, p<.0001) than non-nicotine e-cigarette users. Users of e-cigarette products with nicotine levels of 1.8-4.9% had higher TNE2 and cotinine levels than those using 0.1-1.7%, though differences were insignificant after adjusting for covariates. As compared to non-tobacco users, nicotine vapers had higher concentrations of lead (adjusted p=0.01).

Conclusions: Nicotine containing e-cigarette users exhibited elevated levels of nicotine metabolites than non-nicotine containing vapers and non-tobacco users. Future research needs to investigate health effects of e-cigarette use across different nicotine levels Impact: Regulating the nicotine content in e-cigarettes could be crucial in managing nicotine exposure and potentially mitigating associated health risks.

背景:目前的电子烟市场发展迅速,高尼古丁浓度的电子烟产品所占的份额越来越大。本研究按尼古丁浓度水平检测了电子烟独家使用者的尿液生物标志物暴露(BOEs):数据来自烟草与健康人群评估(PATH)研究的第 5 波(2018 年 12 月至 2019 年 11 月)。研究对象间尼古丁、金属、烟草特异性亚硝胺(TSNA)和挥发性有机化合物(VOC)的BOEs差异取决于电子烟是否含有尼古丁(含有[n=300] vs. 不含有[n=31] vs. 不使用烟草[n=3021])以及不同的尼古丁浓度水平(0.1%-1.7%、1.8%-4.9%和5.0%以上):结果:在3353名参与者中,专门使用电子烟者的尼古丁代谢物平均浓度高于非烟草使用者。尼古丁电子烟使用者的 TNE2 浓度更高(平均值[95% CI]=21.8 [15.2-31.2] vs. 0.2 [0.1-0.6] nmol/mg creatinine,pConclusions):与不含尼古丁的吸食者和非烟草使用者相比,含尼古丁的电子烟使用者的尼古丁代谢物水平较高。未来的研究需要调查不同尼古丁含量的电子烟对健康的影响:规范电子烟中的尼古丁含量对于管理尼古丁暴露和降低相关健康风险至关重要。
