Objective To investigate the effect of Zheng's 4C suspension transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery(TU-LSSS)in the treatment of cervical cancer,and analyze its prognosis.Methods A total of 92 patients with cervical cancer admitted to our hospital were selected and randomly divided into the control group(traditional laparoscopic surgery)and the observation group(Zheng's 4C suspension TU-LSSS),with 46 cases in each group.The perioperative related indicators of patients between the two groups were compared.The patients were followed up for 3 years,the progression-free survival(PFS)and overall survival(OS)were recorded,and the influencing factors of prognosis were analyzed.Results Compared with the control group,patients in the observation group had longer surgical time(P<0.05),less intraoperative bleeding(P<0.05),shorter recovery time for postoperative bowel sounds and hospital stay(P<0.05),higher postoperative 3-year PFS rate and 3-year OS rate(P<0.05).During 3-year follow-up,there were 11 cases of disease progression or death.The univariate analysis results showed that there were statistically significant differences in tumor diameter,clinical stage,lymph node metastasis,vascular infiltration,and treatment methods of patients between the good prognosis group and the poor prognosis group(P<0.05).The binary Logistic regression results showed that tumor diameter(≥4 cm),clinical stage(≥stage ⅠB2),lymph node metastasis,and vascular infiltration were the risk factors for the prognosis of patietns with cervical cancer(P<0.05),while Zheng's 4C suspension TU-LSSS was the protective factors(P<0.05).Conclusion Zheng's 4C suspension TU-LSSS can effectively promote the recovery of patients with cervical cancer,and improve 3-year PFS rate and 3-year OS rate.The prognosis is related to many factors,and targeted treatment should be performed according to different risk factors.

Objective:To establish UPLC specific chromatogram method and content determination method of Dryopteridis Crassirhizomatis Rhizoma; To comprehensively evaluate the Dryopteridis Crassirhizomatis Rhizoma from different producing areas.Methods:UPLC method was used to establish the specific chromatogram of 15 batches of Dryopteridis Crassirhizomatis Rhizoma from different producing areas. The quality was evaluated by cluster analysis and partial least square analysis. The content of total flavonoids was determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry.Results:The established specific chromatogram identified a total of 21 common peaks, and identified 4 components through comparison with control samples. The clustering and partial least squares analysis showed that the samples from Anshan City in Liaoning Province, Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture in Jilin Province, Jiamusi City in Heilongjiang Province, Jilin City in Jilin Province had a certain consistency. The results of total flavone content determination showed that the content of samples from different producing areas was different.Conclusion:The established UPLC characteristic chromatogram and content determination method of total flavone content of Dryopteridis Crassirhizomatis Rhizoma can reflect the quality of Dryopteridis Crassirhizomatis Rhizoma in different places. The quality of samples from different origins is similar, but the contents of the three producing areas fluctuated greatly.

Purpose:
Gastric cancer (GC) is the second most lethal cancer globally and is associated with poor prognosis. Fatty acid-binding proteins (FABPs) can regulate biological properties of carcinoma cells. FABP5 is overexpressed in many types of cancers; however, the role and mechanisms of action of FABP5 in GC remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical and biological functions of FABP5 in GC.
Materials and Methods:
We assessed FABP5 expression using immunohistochemical analysis in 79 patients with GC and evaluated its biological functions following in vitro and in vivo ectopic expression. FABP5 targets relevant to GC progression were determined using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq).
Results:
Elevated FABP5 expression was closely associated with poor outcomes, and ectopic expression of FABP5 promoted proliferation, invasion, migration, and carcinogenicity of GC cells, thus suggesting its potential tumor-promoting role in GC. Additionally, RNA-seq analysis indicated that FABP5 activates immune-related pathways, including cytokinecytokine receptor interaction pathways, interleukin-17 signaling, and tumor necrosis factor signaling, suggesting an important rationale for the possible development of therapies that combine FABP5-targeted drugs with immunotherapeutics.
Conclusions
These findings highlight the biological mechanisms and clinical implications of FABP5 in GC and suggest its potential as an adverse prognostic factor and/or therapeutic target.

The condition of patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) complicated by corona virus 2019 disease (COVID-19) is complex. sTBI can significantly increase the probability of COVID-19 developing into severe or critical stage, while COVID-19 can also increase the surgical risk of sTBI and the severity of postoperative lung lesions. There are many contradictions in the treatment process, which brings difficulties to the clinical treatment of such patients. Up to now, there are few clinical studies and therapeutic norms relevant to sTBI complicated by COVID-19. In order to standardize the clinical treatment of such patients, Critical Care Medicine Branch of China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Healthcare and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate the Chinese expert consensus on clinical treatment of adult patients with severe traumatic brain injury complicated by corona virus infection 2019 ( version 2023) based on the joint prevention and control mechanism scheme of the State Council and domestic and foreign literatures on sTBI and COVID-19 in the past 3 years of the international epidemic. Fifteen recommendations focused on emergency treatment, emergency surgery and comprehensive management were put forward to provide a guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of sTBI complicated by COVID-19.

Objective:To Explore the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of FH-deficient renal cell carcinoma (FH-deficient RCC) with tumor thrombus, and share surgical experience.Methods:From August 2019 to October 2022, 6 cases of FH-deficient RCC with tumor thrombus were diagnosed and treated in our center, including 4 males and 2 females. The patients were aged 22 to 57 years, with 2 cases younger than 40 years, icluding 5 cases on the left and 1 case on the right. The median maximum diameter of the tumor is 8 (4.8, 14.0) cm. Operations were performed after complete examination (enhanced CT and other related examinations). One case underwent open surgery and palliative resection of the left kidney was performed because of severe adhesion of the inferior vena cava. Among the remaining 5 cases, 1 case underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic right radical nephrectomy with inferior vena cava thrombectomy, 1 case underwent transabdominal laparoscopic left radical nephrectomy with inferior vena cava thrombectomy, and 3 cases underwent robot assisted laparoscopic left radical nephrectomy with inferior vena cava thrombectomy.Results:The median surgical time was 293 (185, 366) min, with blockage of the vena cava for 13 min and 28 min in 2 of 6 cases, respectively. The pathological report of renal tumor and tumor thrombus was FH-deficient renal carcinoma. The pathological features were as follows: the gross section of the specimen was gray yellow solid, often accompanied by necrosis, and the cystic cavity could be seen locally. Microscopically, the tumor extensively involved the renal parenchyma, with papillary, cribriform and tubular cystic structures. Immunohistochemistry showed FH (-), 2SC (+ ). The median postoperative hospital stay was 8 (4, 15) days. The median follow-up time was 13 (4, 27) months. One patient undergoing palliative resection of the left kidney underwent targeted therapy and radiotherapy after surgery (died 15 months after surgery due to gastrointestinal perforation). During the follow-up process, 4 cases experienced metastasis and received systematic treatment, with 1 death 27 months after surgery. Uterine leiomyomas were found in the remaining 1 case during follow-up.Conclusions:FH-deficient RCC with tumor thrombus is very rare. This disease is highly invasive, difficult to be diagnosed preoperatively and poor clinically prognostic. Operation combined with systemic therapy is an effective way to treat FH-deficient RCC with tumor thrombus.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Nocardia rubra cell wall skeleton (Nr-CWS) in the treatment of persistent cervical high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection. Methods: A randomized, double blind, multi-center trial was conducted. A total of 688 patients with clinically and pathologically confirmed HR-HPV infection of the cervix diagnosed in 13 hispital nationwide were recruited and divided into: (1) patients with simple HR-HPV infection lasting for 12 months or more; (2) patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) Ⅰ and HR-HPV infection lasting for 12 months or more; (3) patients with the same HR-HPV subtype with no CINⅡ and more lesions after treatment with CINⅡ or CIN Ⅲ (CINⅡ/CIN Ⅲ). All participants were randomly divided into the test group and the control group at a ratio of 2∶1. The test group was locally treated with Nr-CWS freeze-dried powder and the control group was treated with freeze-dried powder without Nr-CWS. The efficacy and negative conversion rate of various subtypes of HR-HPV were evaluated at 1, 4, 8, and 12 months after treatment. The safety indicators of initial diagnosis and treatment were observed. Results: (1) This study included 555 patients with HR-HPV infection in the cervix (included 368 in the test group and 187 in the control group), with an age of (44.1±10.0) years. The baseline characteristics of the two groups of subjects, including age, proportion of Han people, weight, composition of HR-HPV subtypes, and proportion of each subgroup, were compared with no statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). (2) After 12 months of treatment, the effective rates of the test group and the control group were 91.0% (335/368) and 44.9% (84/187), respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (χ2=142.520, P<0.001). After 12 months of treatment, the negative conversion rates of HPV 16, 18, 52, and 58 infection in the test group were 79.2% (84/106), 73.3% (22/30), 83.1% (54/65), and 77.4% (48/62), respectively. The control group were 21.6% (11/51), 1/9, 35.1% (13/37), and 20.0% (8/40), respectively. The differences between the two groups were statistically significant (all P<0.001). (3) There were no statistically significant differences in vital signs (body weight, body temperature, respiration, pulse rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, etc.) and laboratory routine indicators (blood cell analysis, urine routine examination) between the test group and the control group before treatment and at 1, 4, 8, and 12 months after treatment (all P>0.05); there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions related to the investigational drug between the two groups of subjects [8.7% (32/368) vs 8.0% (15/187), respectively; χ2=0.073, P=0.787]. Conclusion: External use of Nr-CWS has good efficacy and safety in the treatment of high-risk HPV persistent infection in the cervix.

Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features, immunophenotypes and molecular genetics of fibroma of tendon sheath (FTS). Methods: One hundred and thirty-four cases of FTS or tenosynovial fibroma diagnosed in the Department of Pathology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China from January 2008 to April 2019 were selected. The clinical and histologic features of these cases were retrospectively reviewed. Immunohistochemistry, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were performed on the above cases. Results: There were a total of 134 cases of FTS, including 67 males and 67 females. The patients' median age was 38 years (ranged from 2 to 85 years). The median tumor size was 1.8 cm (ranged from 0.1 to 6.8 cm). The most common site was the upper extremity (76/134, 57%). Follow-up data was available in 28 cases and there was no detectable recurrence. Classic FTS (114 cases) were well-defined and hypocellular. A few spindle-shaped fibroblasts were scattered in the dense collagenous sclerotic stroma. Characteristically elongated slit-like spaces or thin-walled vessels were observed. Most of cellular FTSs (20 cases) were well-defined and the area with increased cellularity of the spindle cells coexisted with classic FTS. There were occasional mitotic figures, but no atypical mitotic figures. Immunohistochemistry was performed in 8 cases of classic FTS and most cases were positive for SMA (5/8). Immunohistochemistry was also performed in 13 cases of cellular FTS and showed 100% positive rate for SMA. FISH was conducted on 20 cases of cellular FTS and 32 cases of classical FTS. USP6 gene rearrangement was found in 11/20 of cellular FTS. Among 12 cases of CFTS with nodular fasciitis (NF)-like morphological feature, 7 cases showed USP6 gene rearrangement. The rearrangement proportion of USP6 gene in cellular FTS without NF-like morphological features was 4/8. By contrast, 3% (1/32) of the classic FTS showed USP6 gene rearrangement. RT-PCR was performed in those cases with detected USP6 gene rearrangement and sufficient tissue samples for RT-PCR. The MYH9-USP6 fusion gene was detected in 1 case (1/8) of the cellular FTSs, while no target fusion partner was detected in the classic FTS. Conclusions: FTS is a relatively rare benign fibroblastic or myofibroblastic tumor. Our study and recent literature find that some of the classic FTS also show USP6 gene rearrangements, suggesting that classical FTS and cellular FTS are likely to be at different stages of the same disease (spectrum). FISH for USP6 gene rearrangement may be used as an important auxiliary diagnostic tool in distinguishing FTS from other tumors.
