A method for simultaneous determination of 20 Perfluorinated alkyl substances ( PFAS) in animal liver using QuEChERs and HPLC_MS/MS technique was developed. The samples were extracted with 0. 1%hydrochloric acetonitrile and cleaned up with C18 , N_Propylethylendiamine ( PSA ) and graphitized carbon blacks ( GCB ) . The analytes were separated by a reversed phase C18 column and gradiently eluted with a mixed solution of 5 mmol/L ammonium acetate methanol and 5 mmol/L ammonium acetate. The samples were quantified using isotope internal standard and external standard with the matrix matched standard calibration curve method. Good linearity was obtained for all the 20 PFAS at the concentration of 0. 1-10 μg/L with the linear correlation coefficients more than 0. 9995. The limits of detection (LOD) and the limits of quantification ( LOQ) for PFAS were 0. 05-0. 2 μg/kg and 0. 4-0. 5 μg/kg, respectively. The recoveries at three different concentration levels ( 0 . 5 , 2 and 5 μg/kg ) were in the range of 70 . 3% -108 . 1%. The repeatability expressed as relative standard deviations (RSD) was ranged from 2. 1% to 11. 9% (n=6).

Objective To investigate influencing factors of deficient mismatch repair(MMR)in colorectal cancer(CRC).Methods A total of 808 patients with CRC treated in the First People's Hospital of Huzhou from October 2019 to March 2023 and Huzhou Central Hospital from July 2020 to September 2022 were selected as the research objects.According to the diagnosis age of CRC patients,under 50 years old patients as early onset CRC group(57 patients),and over 50 years old patients as late onset CRC group(751 patients).Expression of MMR protein in colorectal tissue was detected through immunohistochemical staining.Influencing factor of MMR protein expression deficiency was analyzed.Results Rate of MMR protein deficiency was 6.8%.Univariate analysis showed that compared with proficient MMR patients,deficient MMR patients had significantly lower age,significantly higher proportion of lesions in the right colon,significantly higher Ki67 positive cell rate,significantly longer tumor length,significantly worse differentiation,significantly fewer lymph node metastases,and significantly earlier TNM stage(P<0.05).Logistic regression multivariate analysis showed that age,tumor location,tumor length,and Ki67 positive cell rate were independent influencing factors for the loss of MMR protein expression in colorectal cancer patients(P<0.05).Proportion of MMR defects in early onset CRC group was significantly higher than that in late onset CRC group(P<0.05).Conclusion CRC patients with MMR protein expression deficiency are characterized by younger onset age,more right colon,longer tumor length and higher Ki67 positive cell rate.

Objective To summarize the preliminary clinical outcomes of combination therapy with molecular targeted agents/immunological agents and to explore the potential value of multidisciplinary therapy in the treatment of postoperative refractory recurrent hepatobiliary tumor.Methods 52 cases of postoperative refractory recurrent hepatobiliary tumor during June 2016 to January 2019 from outpatient and inpatient departments at the First Medical Center of PLA General Hospital were prospectively collected,including 37 males and 15 females,with a mean age of (56.2 ± 8.5) years.Referring to the results of next-generation sequencing (NGS) and other-omics,we designed individualized therapy options for each patient.Follow-ups were done regularly and tumor responses were assessed by modified response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (mRECIST).Results Of 52 patients,median follow-up was 10 months (range 3-31 months).14 (26.9％) patients achieved a complete response (CR).8 (15.3％) patients achieved a partial response (PR).14 (26.9％) patients had stable disease (SD).16 (30.8％,including 4 deaths) had progressive disease (PD).Objective response rate and disease control rate were 42.3％ (22/52) and 69.2％ (36/52),respectively.The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 7 months.6-and 12-month overall survival rates were 100％ (48/48),87.5％ (21/24),respectively.Conclusions Precision medicine has good guidance on the treatment of refractory recurrence of hepatobiliary tumors.The combination therapy of multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitors may achieve better disease control and deserve further promotion in clinical application.

Objective:To explore the value and technique details of the overlay reconstruction technique of angiography in surgical planning of scalp arteriovenous fistulas.Methods:The clinical data of patients admitted from February 2014 to April 2020 in the Neurosurgical Department of Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University with scalp arteriovenous fistulas were analyzed retrospectively. Preoperative angiography was carried out in all patients for diagnosis, and the angiographical data was obtained without injection of the contrast agent by the mode of XperCT Cereb. Fast HD followed by three-dimension rotation angiography (3DRA) with the contrast agent. The overlay reconstruction was achieved for surgical planning to demonstrate feeding arteries and drainage veins surrounding the fistula. Surgeries were conducted by resection or devascularization of the lesion. All patients were followed up in the out-patient clinic to assess the healing and to detect the symptomatic recurrence and scalp necrosis. The pathological changes of the lesion were observed by HE staining.Results:Five patients were enrolled in this study, including three males and two females aged from 10 to 60 years old (average 34.2-year-old). Pulsatile mass of local scalp was presented in all patients, one with a thin scalp. Five patients suffered from five scalp arteriovenous fistulas, including three on the right side and two on the left. Feeding arteries mainly originated from the superficial temporal artery were confirmed in four cases, and the posterior auricular artery in one case. Single venous drainage was noted in two cases, as well as multiple drainage veins in three cases. Three lesions were supplied by unilateral feeding arteries, while bilateral feeding arteries supplied the rest lesions. Two fistulas were treated by resection, two were treated by devascularization, and one was treated by resection with skin grafting. One lesion was fed by a single artery, three lesions were fed by two arteries, and one lesion was fed by three arteries. Three lesions were fed by unilateral arteries, and two lesions were fed by bilateral arteries. Single fistula was detected in one lesion and multiple fistulas in four lesions. Single drainage was confirmed in two lesions, doubled drainages in two lesions, and tripledrainages in one lesion. All patients experienced surgical treatment in one stage.Two patients underwent complete resection of the lesion, two with complete devascularization, and one with autologous thigh skin grafting after resection. Postoperative pathological examination demonstrated dilated and congested vascular lumen, which was consistent with arteriovenous fistula. All patients healed well after surgery. With13-87 months follow-up, no recurrence and necrosis were noted. Two were reexamined by cerebral angiography, which showed no recurrence.Conclusions:Digital subtraction angiography facilitates the diagnosis of scalp arteriovenous fistula accurately and effectively. The overlay reconstruction technique of angiography is crucial for precise localization of fistula shunt and the surrounding feeders and drainages, which is helpful for surgical planning.

Objective:To explore the efficacy, safety, and feasibility of single port laparoscopic liver resection via umbilical cord, and summarize its surgical experience.Method:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 39 patients who underwent liver resection surgery at the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from February 2022 to September 2023. There were 19 patients in the transumbilical single-port laparoscopic group, including 5 males and 14 females, aged (49.6±2.5) years. There were 20 patients in the multi-port laparoscopic group, including 7 males and 13 females, aged (49.9±3.1) years. The intraoperative blood loss, operation time, intestinal recovery time, postoperative hospital stay and postoperative complications were compared between the single-port group and multi-port group.Results:All 39 patients successfully completed the surgery without any additional foramen or conversion to open surgery. The operation time of the single hole group (166.3±59.0) min was longer than that of the multi-port group (123.2±48.0) min, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.50, P=0.020). There were no statistically significant differences in intraoperative blood loss, intestinal recovery time, postoperative hospital stay, and postoperative complications between these two groups (all P>0.05). All patients had no postoperative complications such as bleeding, infection, or bile leakage. Follow up for 3~21 months showed no recurrence of primary diseases such as hepatic hemangioma, hepatic adenoma, and intrahepatic bile duct stones. The aesthetic effect of the umbilical incision in the single orifice group was significant, and patient satisfaction was 100%. Conclusion:Umbilical single-port laparoscopic liver resection surgery is safe and feasible, with significant minimally invasive and aesthetic effects.

Objective: To study the prevalence and correlates of diabetes among HIV/AIDS who were on antiretroviral therapy (ART) in Dehong Dai and Jingpo autonomous prefectures (Dehong), Yunnan province. Methods: The database of HIV/AIDS receiving ART in Dehong was downloaded by using the basic information system of AIDS prevention and control in China. In this cross-sectional study, HIV/AIDS patients who were currently on ART and aged 18 years or above, were consecutively recruited, between July 2017 and June 2018, in Dehong. All the subjects underwent hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) testing. Patient with diabetes was defined as meeting any of these indicators (HbA1c ≥6.5%, baseline FPG ≥7.0 mmol/L, FPG ≥7.0 mmol/L in the most recent visit). Both univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were carried on to evaluate the correlates of diabetes among the HIV/AIDS patients. Results: In total of 4 376 HIV/AIDS patients were included for analysis, with the average age as (43.7±10.1) years, proportion of males as 53.8% (2 356/4 376) and the HCV positive rate as 24.1% (1 055/4 376). The mean years was (8.9±3.8) years after the HIV diagnosis was made, and the mean duration on treatment was (6.8±2.9) years. The prevalence of diabetes was 11.4% (500/4 376). Through multivariate logistic regression analysis, data showed that the risk factors of diabetes of HIV/AIDS on ART were: aged 40 years or above, being male, HCV positive, baseline body mass index ≥24.0 kg/m², elevated TG ≥1.70 mmol/L in the most recent visit and baseline antiretroviral regimens under Efavirenz (EFV). Conclusions Prevalence rate of diabetes appeared higher in HIV/AIDS patients who were on ART in Dehong. Prevention and control measures should be targeted on HIV/AIDS patients who were with risk factors of diabetes as being elderly, male, HCV positive, overweight and higher TG. Further esearch is needed to evaluate the association between the use of EFV and diabetes.

Objective To establish a weightlessness simulation animal model using miniature pigs, leveraging the characteristic of multiple systems’ tissue structures and functions similar to those of humans, and to observe pathophysiological changes, providing a new method for aerospace research. Methods Nine standard-grade miniature pigs were selected and randomly divided into an experimental group (n=7) and a control group (n=2). The experimental group was fixed using customized metal cages, with canvas slings suspending their hind limbs off the ground, and the body positioned at a -20° angle relative to the ground to simulate unloading for 30 days (24 hours a day). Data on body weight, blood volume, and blood biochemistry indicators were collected at different time points for statistical analysis of basic physiological changes. After the experiment, the miniature pigs were euthanized and tissue samples were collected for histopathological observation of the cardiovascular, skeletal and muscle systems HE and Masson staining. Statistical analysis was also conducted on the thickness of arterial vessels and the diameter of skeletal muscle fibers. Additionally, western blotting was employed to detect the expression levels of skeletal muscle atrophy-related proteins, including muscle-specific RING finger protein 1 (MuRf-1) and muscle atrophy F-box (MAFbx, as known as Atrogin-1), while immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), an indicator of astrocyte activation in the brain, reflecting the pathophysiological functional changes across systems. Results After hindlimb unloading, the experimental group showed significant decreases in body weight (P<0.001) and blood volume (P<0.01). During the experiment, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and red blood cell count levels significantly decreased (P<0.05) but gradually recovered. The expression levels of alanine aminotransferase and γ-glutamyltransferase initially decreased (P<0.05) before rebounding, while albumin significantly decreased (P<0.001) and globulin significantly increased (P<0.01). Creatinine significantly decreased (P<0.05). The average diameter of gastrocnemius muscle fibers in the experimental group significantly shortened (P<0.05), with a leftward shift in the distribution of muscle fiber diameters and an increase in small-diameter muscle fibers. Simultaneously, Atrogin-1 expression in the gastrocnemius and paravertebral muscles significantly increased (P<0.05). These changes are generally consistent with the effects of weightlessness on humans and animals in space. Furthermore, degenerative changes were observed in some neurons of the cortical parietal lobe, frontal lobe, and hippocampal regions of the experimental group, with a slight reduction in the number of Purkinje cells in the cerebellar region, and a significant enhancement of GFAP-positive signals in the hippocampal area (P<0.05). Conclusion Miniature pigs subjected to a -20° angle hind limb unloading for 30 days maybe serve as a new animal model for simulating weightlessness, applicable to related aerospace research.
