Objective To improve the diagnosis and management of closed renal trauma,and to reduce the rate of nephrectomy. Methods A total of 189 cases (146 men and 43 women; mean age,38 years) of closed renal trauma were retrospectively studied. A variety of examinations, including urinary analysis, B-ultrasonography, intravenous urography( IVU) and CT,were used for the diagnosis in these patients. Among them,closed renal trauma was accompanied by celiac viscera injury in 27 cases,by encephalic injury in 5, by fractures of spine and limbs in 13,and by compound trauma and shock in 3. Of the 189 cases, 156 were treated with conservative therapy, including 3 of spleen rupture,2 of encephalic injury,7 of fracture of spine and limbs;27 cases were treated with operation, including 15 with kidney repair,5 with partial nephrectomy, 7 with nephrectomy;3 cases were treated with selective renal artery embolization. Results Three patients with severe closed renal trauma died of compound trauma and shock soon after admission,and the other 186 patients recovered. Of them, 102 cases were followed up from 3 months to 8 years. Among patients undergoing conservative treatment renal hypertension occurred in 3 cases, urinoma in 1 , kidney atrophy in 1 and local hydronephrosis in 1. In patients undergoing surgery or selective kidney artery embolization, no subsequent complication occurred. Conclusions CT scan can provide a major basis for the diagnosis and treatment choice as well as early detection of urinoma of closed renal trauma. For closed renal trauma below grade IV ,conservative treatment is the better option.

Objective To systematically assess the clinical efficacy and safety of acupuncture treatment for vertigo with excess syndrome. Methods Chinese and English literature about acupuncture treatment of vertigo with excess syndrome published in recent years was comprehensively searched. The quality of the retrieved literature meeting the inclusion criteria of randomized controlled trial was assessed and its data was collected. A Meta analysis of the included studies was carried out.Results Finally, 10 articles with randomized controlled trials containing a total of 688 patients were included in the analysis. The included literature was assessed at lower quality using Cochrane evaluation member manual 5.1. A Meta analysis showed that the efficacy rate of acupuncture treatment for vertigo with excess syndrome was higher than that of Western drugs alone [M-H OR 4.84, 95%CI (2.39, 9.81),P<0.0001]. Combined acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine was superior to Chinese herbal medicine alone [M-H OR 3.82, 95%CI (2.06, 7.10),P<0.0001]. Vertigo symptom and function scoring showed day 3 of treatment [MD 4.66, 95%CI (2.97, 6.35)], day 7 of treatment [MD 0.95, 95%CI (0.03, 1.86)] and day 14 of treatment [MD 0.89, 95%CI (0.71, 2.49)]. There were statistically significant differences in the vertigo symptom and function scores between the two groups of patients at day 3 and 7 of treatment. There were no statistically significant differences in the scores between the two groups of patients at day 14 of treatment. Conclusions Acupuncture or combined acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine are effective and highly safe in treating vertigo with excess syndrome, but high-quality, multi-center and large-sample RCT studies still need to be conducted for validation and support.

Objective By simulating the intermittent hypoxia(IH ) environment of human obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) ,to reveal the effect of IH on migratory ability of human peripheral blood derived dendritic cells(DCs) ,and through the in‐tervention of RelB ,p38 expression in order to explore the possible mechanism of the change of DCs migration ability induced by IH . Methods DCs were divided into RelB ,p38 siRNA interfering and non interfering plasmid group before cultivation .The environment of hypoxia was created by a intermittent hypoxia cabin ,among them ,oxygen concentration was 0 .5% ,1 .5% ,5 .0% ,10 .0% ,hypox‐ia/reoxygenation time ratio was set as 1∶1 ,1∶3 ,1∶5 and 1∶9 ,while sustained oxygen was supplied to the contrast at a normal concentration of 21 .0% .The content of RelB and p38 was tested by Western blotting after culture in vitro ,migration ability of DCs was detected by invasion chamber .Results Compared with normoxia ,DCs under IH tended to have declined migratory ability , which was confirmed to be correlated with the average oxygen partial pressure level under IH .IH could promote the expression of RelB and p38 in DCs ,while the migratory ability of DCs was not reversed after intervening the expression of RelB and p38 .Conclu‐sion IH in vitro could cause a decline in migratory ability of DCs ,which may not be induced by activation of RelB or p38 in DCs .

Objective To investigate the effect of hypoxia on the proliferation and expressions of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9) in keratinocytes obtained from oral lichen planus(OLP) lesions.Methods Hypoxia environment was induced by a airtight incubator.Five groups were included,normoxia control group,hypoxia control group(12,24,36,48 h).The effect of different treatment time of hypoxia on cellular proliferation was determined with cell counting kit-8(CCK-8).The mRNA and protein expressions of HIF-lα,VEGF and MMP-9 were analyzed respectively by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction with SYBR Green Ⅰ and Western blotting.Results The growth activity of keratinocytes obtained from OLP lesions in the hypoxia groups(0.340±0.002,0.415±0.006,0.546±0.006) was reduced than that in control (0.431±0.001,0.620±0.004,1.022±0.005)(P＜0.01).The mRNA levels of VEGF(2.087±0.291,3.189±0.573,5.402±0.563) and MMP-9(2.936±0.500,4.083±0.300,6.374±0.858) were elevated by hypoxia(P＜0.05).The protein levels of HIF-lα(0.414±0.093,0.751 ±0.056,0.875±0.040),VEGF(0.393 ±0.046,0.557±0.078,0.767±0.045) and MMP-9(0.250±0.053,0.384±0.038,0.611±0.092) were all remarkably elevated by hypoxia (P＜O.05).However,hypoxia had no effect on HIF-1α mRNA expression.The mRNA expression of HIF-1α after hypoxia exposure for 36 h(1.412±0.094) and 48 h(1.417±0.446) was higher than that of control group,however,there was no significant difference.A positive correlation was noted between HIF-1α and VEGF in protein level(r=0.905,P=O.O00),and the same correlation found between HIF-1α and MMP-9(r=0.881,P=0.000).Conclusions Hypoxia conditions may inhibit the proliferation of keratinocytes obtained from OLP lesions.Hypoxia conditions can promote the protein expressions of HIF-1α and both the mRNA and protein expression of VEGF and MMP-9 in keratinocytes obtained from OLP lesions exposed to hypoxia.The relative high expression of HIF-lα may be involved in multiple aspects of OLP progression through the regulation of its downstream target genes.

Objective To detect the feasibility and safety of applying all-seeing needle in transurethral seminal vesiculoscopy.Methods Retrospective analysis was made with clinical data of 32 patients of hemospermia treated with transurethral seminal vesiculoscopy using all-seeing needle from March 2016 to January 2018.The patients'age was (38.8 ± 8.7) years (27-60 years) and the course of disease was (7.1 ±3.3) months (2-15 months).Ultrasound before operation showed heterogeneous echo,or expansion of the seminal vesicle.MRI showed hemorrhage of the seminal vesicle,or abnormal signal of the seminal vesicle.Patients had levofloxacin or mosisasin anti-infection therapy more than one month and remained uncovered.The operation was performed under subarachnoid anesthesia,and the patients took the lithotomy position.The F4.8 all-seeing needle entered the posterior urethra,the verumontanum was found,and the saline was slowly pushed with a syringe to maintain a clear view.Then,the ejaculatory duct opening was searched on both sides of the verumontanum.If the ejaculatory duct opening cannot be found in the normal position,we entered the needle into the prostatic utricle to find the possible ectopic opening.If the ejaculatory duct opening was still not found,at the 5 and 7 o'clock positions in the prostatic utricle,the needle was probed and punctured into the side wall of the ejaculatory duct.Visible puncture with all-seeing needle can effectively avoid penetrating blood vessels and reduce damage to tissues during puncture.In this study,the ejaculatory duct opening got accessed on the verumontanum in 14 cases,through ectopic openings within the prostatic utricle in 2 cases,and through artificial establishment in 5 and 7 o'clock positions within prostatic utricle in 16 cases.After entering the ejaculatory duct and seminal vesicle,we explored the cavities of the seminal vesicles.For stones or polyps,after replacing the outer sheath to F8,F1.9 stone retrieval basket was applied to remove stones or polyps,followed by rinsing the seminal vesicles with normal saline,0.02％ nitrofurazone,and then 160,000 units of gentamicin into each seminal vesicle.For hemorrhage,after clearing up the blood,seminal vesicles were also washed with normal saline,nitrofurazone,and perfused with gentamicin.In the operation,prostatic utricle stone was found in 5 cases,and seminal vesicle stone was found in 7 cases.One case of seminal vesicle polyp was observed,and in 19 cases,seminal vesicle hemorrhage was seen.Results All the operations were accomplished successfully,the operation time was (55.0 ± 11.3) min (35-82 min).There was no rectal injury or urethral injury during operation.The postoperative catheter was removed at 2 days postoperatively and the patients discharged on the 4th day after surgery.The length of hospital stay was (6.3 ± 0.7) days (5-7 days).One patient had mild hematuria after removal of the urethral catheter and got improved spontaneously;one case developed epididymitis,which improved after anti-infective treatment.6 cases made stone analysis,with 5 cases of magnesium ammonium phosphate hexahydrate,and 1 case of calcium oxalate dihydrate,calcium oxalate monohydrate and carbonate apatite mixed stones.One case of polyp was diagnosed by pathologists to be an inflammatory polyp.Follow-up was performed at 4,6,8,and 12 weeks after surgery.Hemospermia was cured in 24 cases,relieved in the other 8 cases at 8-week follow-up,who received oral antibiotic treatment afterwards.At the 12-week follow-up,the rest 6 cases in 8 got hemospermia recovered,with 2 cases still uncovered.Conclusions All-seeing needle is user-friendly and safe in transurethral seminal vesiculoscopy,with reliable short-term efficacy.

Objective To evaluate clinical efficacy of lung transplantation for lung chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Methods Clinical data of 12 patients undergoing lung transplantation for lung cGVHD were retrospectively analyzed. Preoperative clinical manifestations and involved organs of patients were analyzed. The lung function before and after lung transplantation was compared, and the survival of patients after lung transplantation was analyzed. Results Eleven patients underwent HSCT due to primary hematological malignancies, including 9 cases of leukemia, 1 case of myelodysplastic syndrome, 1 case of lymphoma. And 1 case underwent HSCT for systemic lupus erythematosus. Among 12 cGVHD patients, skin involvement was found in 8 cases, oral cavity involvement in 5 cases, gastrointestinal tract involvement in 4 cases and liver involvement in 3 cases. All 12 patients developed severe respiratory failure caused by cGVHD before lung transplantation, including 9 cases of typeⅡ respiratory failure and 3 cases of type Ⅰ respiratory failure. Two patients underwent right lung transplantation, 2 cases of left lung transplantation and 8 cases of bilateral lung transplantation. The interval from HSCT to lung transplantation was 75 (19-187) months. Upon the date of submission, postoperative follow-up time was 18 (7-74) months. Ten patients survived, 1 died from severe hepatitis at postoperative 22 months, and 1 died from gastrointestinal bleeding at postoperative 6 months. No recurrence of primary diseases was reported in surviving patients. Conclusions Lung transplantation is an efficacious treatment for lung cGVHD after HSCT, which may prolong the survival time and improve the quality of life of the recipients.

Objective·To explore the correlation between the quantitative results of autofluorescence imaging under computer assistance and the grade of epithelial dysplasia in oral leukoplakia.Methods·From April 2016 to January 2024,357 patients with oral leukoplakia who visited the Department of Oral Mucosal Diseases at Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine,were included.Autofluorescence images of the lesions were obtained using a handheld autofluorescence device.These images were converted to grayscale images to obtain quantitative metrics.An ordered multinomial Logistic regression model was fitted in Python,and cumulative probability plots were generated.The dataset was divided into training and testing sets,and a decision tree was generated.Different hyperparameters were adjusted to achieve optimal model performance.Accuracy,precision,and F1 scores were calculated.The model performance was visualized using a confusion matrix.Results·As the degree of epithelial dysplasia increased,the relative mean color level showed a declining trend.In the binary classification of epithelial dysplasia,there was no overlap between the cumulative probability curves of different categories.In the four-category classification,only severe epithelial dysplasia overlapped with other category curves,indicating good discriminative ability of the model.In binary pathological grading,when the training and testing set ratio was 4∶1 and the maximum depth was 2,the accuracy,precision,and F1 scores were 0.792,0.801,and 0.795,respectively.In the four-category pathological grading,when the training and testing set ratio was 9∶1 and the maximum depth was 4,the accuracy,precision,and F1 scores were 0.611,0.537,and 0.569,respectively.Conclusion·Computer-assisted quantitative analysis of autofluorescence images can be used by oral mucosal specialists as a reference to predict the degree of epithelial dysplasia in patients with oral leukoplakia and to monitor their risk of cancer.
