ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of the nitroglycerin-controlled low central venous pressure （CLCVP） technique on brain metabolic markers and cerebral blood oxygen saturation in patients undergoing laparoscopic hepatectomy for liver cancer， and to reduce the risk of neurological complications. MethodsA total of 105 patients who underwent elective laparoscopic hepatectomy for liver cancer in Haikou Hospital Affiliated to Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from April 2020 to May 2023 were enrolled and randomly divided into CLCVP group with 54 patients and non-CLCVP group with 51 patients. The patients in the CLCVP group were treated with the nitroglycerin CLCVP technique during surgery， while those in the non-CLCVP group were given conventional surgical treatment. The two groups were compared in terms of the following indicators： perioperative indicators； hemodynamic parameters and cerebral oxygen metabolism before anesthesia induction （T0）， at 5 minutes after anesthesia induction （T1）， at 5 minutes after the beginning of liver parenchyma dissection （T2）， at 5 minutes after the end of hepatectomy （T3）， and immediately after the end of surgery （T4）； the changes in liver function parameters after surgery； the incidence rate of adverse reactions. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups， and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups； the analysis of variance with repeated measures was used for comparison between multiple time points. ResultsCompared with the non-CLCVP group， the CLCVP group had significantly lower intraoperative blood loss and intraoperative fluid infusion volume （t=5.408 and 7.220， both P<0.05）， while there were no significant differences between the two groups in time of operation， anesthesia time， extubation time， resuscitation time and intraoperative urine volume （all P>0.05）. Compared with the data at T0， both groups had significant reductions in mean arterial pressure， heart rate， and central venous pressure during surgery （all P<0.05）， and compared with the non-CLCVP group， the CLCVP group had significantly lower mean arterial pressure and central venous pressure （P<0.05） and a significantly higher heart rate （P<0.05） at T2 and T3. Compared with the data at T0， both groups had a significant reduction in Ca-jvDO₂ at T2‍ ‍—‍ ‍T4 time points （all P<0.05）， while there was no significant difference in Ca-jvDO₂ between the two groups at each time point （all P>0.05）. Compared with the data at T0， the CLCVP group had a significant reduction in rSO₂ at T2‍ ‍—‍ ‍T4 time points （all P<0.05）， and the CLCVP group had a significantly lower level of rSO₂ than the non-CLCVP group at T2‍ ‍—‍ ‍T3 time points （both P<0.05）； there were no significant changes in CERO₂ and Djv-aBL in either group at each time point （all P>0.05）. At 3 and 7 days after surgery， both groups had significant increases in the liver function parameters of aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， and total bilirubin （TBil） （all P<0.05）， and the CLCVP group had significantly lower levels of AST and ALT than the non-CLCVP group （all P<0.05）； there was no significant difference in TBil between the two groups at each time point （all P>0.05）. There was no significant difference in the incidence rate of perioperative complications between the two groups （χ²=0.729， P=0.394）. ConclusionThe application of the nitroglycerin CLCVP technique in laparoscopic hepatectomy for liver cancer can reduce the amount of intraoperative blood loss in patients， but it is necessary to further enhance the monitoring of cerebral blood oxygen saturation during surgery， so as to reduce the risk of neurological complications as much as possible.

Objective:To explore the value and related mechanism of preoperative serum sialic acid (SA) on evaluating microvascular invasion (MVI) in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC).Methods:A total of 91 patients who underwent surgical resection and were pathologically diagnosed with ICC from December 2020 to September 2024 at the Oriental Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital affiliated to the Naval Medical University were included in this retrospective analysis. The patients were divided into non-MVI (41 cases) and MVI groups (50 cases). The general data and laboratory examination indexes were collected and analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent risk factors for predicting MVI. The predictive value of serum indicators for MVI was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curves. The correlation between MVI and SA was analyzed by point-biserial correlation. ICC cells stably overexpressing β-galactoside α2, 6-sialyltransferase 1 (ST6GAL1) were generated through lentiviral transfection. ST6GAL1 protein expression and mRNA expression were detected by Western blot and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, respectively. Sambucus nigra (SNA) lectin fluorescence staining was used to detect α2, 6-sialylation levels on cells. Cell migration ability was assessed by wound healing and Transwell assays, and cell proliferation was evaluated by colony formation assays.Results:Compared with the non-MVI group, patients in the MVI group exhibited significantly higher levels of fibrinogen, aspartate aminotransferase, gamma-glutamyl transferase, alkaline phosphatase, SA and 5′-nucleotidase (5′-NT) (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that SA ( OR=1.01,95% CI 1.01-1.02, P=0.023) was the only independent predictor for MVI. The area under curve of SA in predicting MVI was 0.757 (95% CI 0.640-0.870), sensitivity 67.65%, specificity 77.78%. SA was positively correlated with MVI ( r=0.443, P<0.001). ICC cells overexpressing ST6GAL1 were featured with increased mean fluorescence intensity of SNA lectin, and increased level of α2, 6-sialylation on the cell surface (both P<0.05). The number of colonies formed by hypersialylated ICC cells was also increased ( P<0.05), and both the migration rate and the number of migrating cells were significantly higher ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Serum SA is an independent predictor for MVI in ICC patients. Hypersialylation in ICC cells is associated with higher malignancy.

Aim To explore the predictive value of serum free triiodothyronine(FT3)on the long-term prognosis of patients with coronary heart disease after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods All the subjects were from a prospective cohort study(PRACTICE study).In this study,15 250 patients with coronary heart disease after PCI in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University were selected,and the clinical data,FT3 and creatinine were collected.All the subjects were followed up regularly,and the primary follow-up endpoints were all-cause mortality and cardiogenic mortality,the secondary endpoints were major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events(MACCE).According to the admission criteria,3 109 patients were finally in-cluded in this study.According to the baseline value of FT3,patients were divided into normal FT3 group(FT3:3.65～6.8 pmol/L,1 446 cases)and low FT3 group(FT3＜3.65 pmol/L,1 663 cases).Kaplan-Meier analysis was used for survival analysis,and Log-rank test was used for survival comparison.Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to e-valuate the risk factors of the follow-up results of the two groups.Results Compared with the normal FT3 group,all-cause mortality and cardiogenic mortality in the low FT3 group increased significantly(P＜0.05).Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the cumulative risk of all-cause mortality and cardiogenic mortality increased in the low FT3 group(P＜0.05).Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that the risk of all-cause mortality increased by 1.639 folds in the low FT3 group(HR=2.639,95％CI:1.385～5.348,P=0.007),while no statistical difference was found in cardiogenic mortality after adjusting for multiple factors(P=0.125).Conclusion The decrease in serum FT3 levels has important predictive value for all-cause mortality after PCI in patients with coronary heart disease.

Background and purpose:The Shanghai Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention provides annual updates on cancer statistics in Shanghai.Breast cancer is one of the common malignant tumors among women.In recent years,the incidence of female breast cancer was increasing,while its trend of mortality showed declining.This study aimed to investigate the survival rates of new female breast cancer cases in Shanghai from 2002 to 2017.Methods:Data of new cases and deaths of female breast cancer patients with follow-up information from 2002 to 2017 were obtained from the Population-based Cancer Registry and Vital Statistics System of Shanghai Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention.Numbers,proportions,and survival rates were stratified by year of diagnosis,age,histological type and stage at diagnosis for analysis.The 5-year observed survival rates were calculated based on the life table method.The probabilities of surviving from 0 to 99 years were estimated with the Elandt-Johnson model,and then cumulative expected survival rates were calculated using the Ederer Ⅱ method.Finally,the 5-year relative survival rates were calculated.The annual percent change(APC)of survival rates was estimated by Joinpoint Regression Program.Results:A total of 73 600 new female breast cancer cases were diagnosed from 2002 to 2017 in Shanghai.Among them,67 681 cases were morphological verification,accounting for 91.96%.By December 31,2022,23 745(32.26%)cases had died,and 19 466(26.45%)cases had died of cancer.A total of 68 332(92.84%)cases,who were either dead or followed for over 5 years,were considered to have complete follow-up.The remaining 5 268(7.16%)cases were lost to follow-up.73 538(99.92%)cases were included in the observed cohort for survival analysis.The number of observed cases nearly doubled from 3330 in 2002 to 6095 in 2017.The 5-year observed survival rate changed from 78.77%in 2002 to 84.55%in 2017 dynamically,showed a low increasing trend with an average rate of 0.50%per year(APC=0.50%,t=8.75,P＜0.001).The 5-year relative survival rate also increased from 83.46%to 89.24%slowly,with an average rate of 0.47%(APC=0.47%,t=9.80,P＜0.001).The overall 5-year observation survival rate of female cancer was 83.24%(82.96%-83.52%),and the 5-year relative survival rate was 87.58%(87.29%-87.87%)in Shanghai from 2002 to 2017.It was increasing over time,decreasing with aging and advanced stage at diagnosis continuously.There was no significant difference in the 5-year relative survival rates between the groups aged 15 to 64(P＞0.05).The group with an unknown stage had the highest number of cases,followed by the stage Ⅱ group,and then the stage Ⅰ group.The 5-year relative survival rate of cases with stage Ⅰ disease reached 99.10%(98.78%-99.42%),but these cases only accounted for 25.51%of the total.The 5-year relative survival rate of cases with stage Ⅳ disease was 52.54%(50.98%-54.11%),and these cases accounted for 6.13%of the total.The 5-year relative survival rate of cases with s unknown stage was 82.04%(81.42%-82.65%),and these cases accounted for 31.05%of the total.Conclusion:The diagnostic levels and survival rates of female breast cancer in Shanghai were relatively high and continue to improve.However,the proportions of cases with unknown histological type and unknown stage remain relatively high,and the proportion of stage Ⅰ cases is not very large.The survival rates of stage Ⅳ cases are relatively low.This study provides evidence for further research,prevention and control efforts for female breast cancer.

Diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, collectively referred to the " Three Highs, " represent increasingly prevalent metabolic risk factors in China. Many individuals experience all three conditions concurrently, significantly heightening the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Although the National Metabolic Management Center(MMC) has been established for over eight years and has its unique features, the awareness, treatment, and control rates of these diseases in China remain low, and the efficiency of community management is insufficient. According to the previous two editions of management guidelines and the most recent domestic and international diagnostic and treatment guidelines, this paper conducts an in-depth analysis of the operational experience and management strategies of the MMC. Its aim is to improve the efficiency of grassroots MMC mode management for " Three Highs" patients and ensure that patients receive more standardized management.

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect and elucidate the molecular mechanism of 6-gingerol on human multiple myeloma cells.Methods The human multiple myeloma cell lines RPMI 8226 and ARH77 were cultured in vitro,followed by treatment with varying concentrations(50,100,200,300,400 μmol/L)of 6-gingerol.The inhibitory effect on cell proliferation was assessed using the CCK-8 assay.Flow cytometry was employed to evaluate cell apoptosis and cycle distribution.Additionally,qRT-PCR and Western blotting techniques were utilized to analyze gene and protein expression levels.Results The proliferation of RPMI 8226 and ARH77 cells was dose-and time-dependently inhibited by 6-gingerol,leading to the induction of apoptosis with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Further mechanistic investigations revealed that treatment with 6-gingerol arrested RPMI 8226 cells in the G0/G1 phase,resulting in a significant increase in Bax levels and a decrease in Bcl-2 mRNA and c-Myc mRNA levels(P＜0.05).Additionally,it significantly upregulated the expression of Bax,Cleaved-PARP,Cleaved-caspase3,P53,and p-AKT proteins while down regulating the expression of Bcl-2 protein(P＜0.05).Conclusions The compound 6-Gingerol exhibits inhibitory effects on the proliferation and induction of apoptosis in MM cells,as well as cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase.Its mechanism of action is likely associated with the suppression of the AKT signaling pathway,downregulation of Bcl-2 family protein expression,and inhibition of c-Myc expression.
