Objective: To seek the direct evidence of myocardial inflammatory activation in a cohort of patient undergoing surgery on cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Methods: Twenty patients undergoing surgery on CPB had plasma samples obtained for tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?), perioperatively. Myocardial tissue samples were obtained intraoperatively, both pre-and post-CPB. Myocardial nuclear factor ?B (NF-?B) nuclear translocation and plasma TNF-? concentrations were analyzed by standard enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Cross clamp times, CPB times and the time to extubation were recorded. The change of myocardial NF-?B nuclear translocation and plasma TNF-? concentrations was assessed by analysis of variance (ANOVA). The regression analysis was utilized to define the correlations among the optical densities of NF-?B, concentrations of plasma TNF-?, influencing factors and heart function. Results: (1) Seventeen patients had NF-?B nuclear translocation before initiation of CPB, the optical density (OD) of myocardial NF-?B was significantly increased at the end of CPB in nineteen patients. (2) The correlation between the activity of NF-?B and concentration of TNF-? was signi ficant. (3) The correlation between the activity of NF-?B and clinic outcomes and other influencing factors was not significant. Conclusion: Myocardial inflammatory activation may be present in the patients before CPB. CPB could increase the activity of myocardial NF-?B.

Methods : The epidemiological and clinical features of patients with severe mental disorders included in community management in Shaoxing City in 2022 were collected from Zhejiang Provincial Severe Mental Disorder Management Information System, including demographics, disease diagnosis and treatment, physical examination, and rescue and assistance. Factors affecting the physical examination were identified among patients with severe mental disorders using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 25 468 patients with severe mental disorders were enrolled in Shaoxing City in 2022, including 12 151 males and 13 317 females, with a male to female ratio of 0.91∶1, and the participants had a mean age of (54.34±14.71) years. Schizophrenia was the predominant type of severe mental disorders (15 419 cases, 60.54%), and 21 374 subjects participating in the physical examinations in 2022 (83.92%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that female (OR=0.901, 95%CI: 0.832-0.975), urban areas (OR=0.506, 95%CI: 0.468-0.547), mental disorders due to epilepsy (OR=1.779, 95%CI: 1.104-2.866), hospitalized treatment (6 to 10 times, OR=0.523, 95%CI: 0.401-0.681; 11 times and more, OR=0.177, 95%CI: 0.108-0.288), special diseases in outpatient (OR=1.738, 95%CI: 1.597-1.891), receiving medical assistance (OR=2.851, 95%CI: 2.616-3.107), targets of the community care and assistance groups (OR=1.653, 95%CI: 1.471-1.857) and guardian (spouse, OR=1.777, 95%CI: 1.513-2.086; children, OR=1.277, 95%CI: 1.069-1.526; parents, OR=1.342, 95%CI: 1.143-1.576) were statistically associated with the proportion of physical examinations. Conclusions The proportion of health examinations was 83.92% among patients with severe mental disorders in Shaoxing City in 2022.

Objective To evaluate the uncertainty of the small bowel dose?volume and the normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) during intensity?modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for rectal cancer, and to provide a reference for the dose limit and protection of the small bowel during IMRT for rectal cancer. Methods A total of 20 patients with rectal cancer who received postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy from March 2014 to August 2015 were enrolled in this study, including 10 patients receiving CT scan in the supine position and 10 patients in the prone position. All patients received computed tomography ( CT) scan before the treatment and at weeks 1, 2, 3, and 4 of treatment, and they were defined as Plan, 1W, 2W, 3W, and 4W CT groups, respectively. The small bowel loop ( BL ) and peritoneal space ( PS ) were delineated on the images. The IMRT plan based on the Plan CT was copied to the 1W, 2W, 3W, and 4W CT groups, and then the small bowel dose?volume and NTCP were assessed for all CT groups. The paired t?test was used for comparison between groups. The Pearson method was used to analyze the correlation between NTCPC(chronic NTCP) and dose?volume. Results A total of 89 CT images of 20 patients were obtained. In all the patients, the volumes of BL and PS were 25121 cm3 and 132416 cm3 , respectively, and the shift% was 2315% and 1134%, respectively. The V15 of BL and PS was 18486 cm3 and 79245 cm3 , respectively, and the shift% was 3169% and 370%, respectively. The V30 of BL and PS was 8801 cm3 and 64573 cm3 , respectively, and the shift% was 3766% and 1049%, respectively. The V15 of BL in 35% of patients and V15 of PS in 20% of patients, the Dmax of BL in 50% of patients, and the NTCP of 15% of patients in the course of treatment exceeded the safety limits. The 1?4W CT groups had a significantly higher NTCPC than the Plan CT group (402% vs. 320%, P=0104), and their SD% was 4168%. There was a significant correlation between NTCPC and V30?V50 of BL (R>0400, P=0000). The NTCPA ( acute NTCP ) and NTCP C in the supine position were significantly higher than those in the prone position ( 6230% vs. 5674%, P=0061;488% vs. 322%, P=0145 ) . Conclusions Small bowel motility leads to an uncertainty of the adverse event assessment during IMRT for rectal cancer. The change in BL is significantly larger than that in PS and the change in BL and PS in the supine position is significantly larger than that in the prone position. Using the prone position and minimizing V15 and V30 when designing the treatment plan can reduce the NTCP A and NTCP C in the small bowel.

Feeding adult male rats with gossypol acetic acid at a dose of 15 nig/kg/day for 50 days led to infertility. Spermatogenesis and sperm motility were impaired ( table 1 ) . However, testosterone, K+ and Na+ concentsrations in serum and RTF were found to be unchanged (table 2, 3 ) . It suggests that at low antifertility doses gossypol disrupts spermatogenesis in the seminiferous epithelium without affecting testosterone, K+ and Na+ secretion and translation in testis.
