Objective To explore the effect of digital delivery of cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia(dCBT-I)based on internet technology on anxiety and sleep quality in patients with generalized anxiety disorder(GAD).Methods A total of 82 GAD patients treated in Huzhou Third Municipal Hospital from April to October 2023 were selected as study objects,and were divided into intervention group and control group according to random number table method,with 41 cases in each group.The intervention group received dCBT-I based on internet technology,and the control group received offline cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia.The anxiety and sleep quality of two groups were compared.Results After the intervention,the scores of Hamilton anxiety scale and Pittsburgh sleep quality index in intervention group were significantly lower than those in control group,and the score of dysfunctional beliefs and attitudes about sleep was significantly higher than those in control group(P<0.05).Conclusion dCBT-I based on internet technology can effectively relieve the anxiety of GAD patients and improve the quality of sleep.

A high-altitude environment is characterized by low oxygen levels,low pressure,and low temperatures.Exposure to the plateau environment often causes damage to the body,leading to the occurrence of acute mountain sickness/chronic mountain sickness(AMS/CMS).Research indicates that acute or chronic exposure to the special environment can result in overall organ dysfunctions,such as those in the heart and gastrointestinal tract.The damage to the body caused by exposure to the plateau environment is closely related to acute and chronic hypoxia.Physiological maladjustment or disease is usually accompanied by changes in the structure of the gut microbiota.There have been reports on the correlations between the gut microbiota and bodily harm caused by high-altitude exposure.However,the specific types of bacteria involved and the mechanisms of action are still under investigation.This article reviews the intestinal tissue damage caused by low oxygen levels,immune activation,changes in microbial community structure,and differential metabolic products.The association and underlying mechanisms between bodily harm due to high-altitude exposure and the intestinal microbiota are also explored in hopes of stimulating new lines of thought related to the prevention and treatment of bodily harm caused by exposure to the plateau environment.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the clinical and pathologic characteristics, response to treatment, survival, and prognosis of patients with primary large B-cell lymphoma of the central nervous system (PCNSLBCL) .Methods:Clinical and pathologic data of 70 patients with PCNSLBCL admitted to Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from December 2010 to November 2022 were collected for retrospective analysis. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test, and prognosis analysis was conducted using the Cox proportional hazards model.Results:Among 70 patients with PCNSLBCL, complete remission (CRs) were achieved in 49 (70.0% ) and partial remission in 4 (5.7% ) after the first-line induction therapy; the overall remission rate was 75.7%. The 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate was 55.8% and the median progression-free survival (mPFS) time was 35.9 months, whereas the 2-year overall survival (OS) rate was 79.1% with a median OS time not reached. After CR induced by first-line therapy, cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) was lower in patients who had received auto-HSCT than in those who had not received consolidation therapy ( P=0.032), whose 2-year PFS rate was 54.4% and mPFS time was 35.9 months; comparatively, the 2-year PFS rate in patients having received oral maintenance of small molecule drugs reached 84.4% with a mPFS time of 79.5 months ( P=0.038). Multivariant analysis demonstrated that Class 3 in the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) prognostic model is an independent adverse prognostic factor of OS in patients with PCNSLBCL ( HR=3.127, 95% CI 1.057-9.253, P=0.039) . Conclusions:In patients with PCNSLBCL achieving CR after the first-line induction therapy, auto-HSCT as consolidation therapy would lead to a decreased CIR, and PFS time could be prolonged by oral maintenance of small molecule drugs. Class 3 MSKCC prognostic model is independently associated with poorer OS.

Objective:To explore the repair strategy of chest radiation ulcer after radical mastectomy for breast cancer and its clinical effect.Methods:The study was a retrospective observational study. From September 2020 to September 2023, 27 female patients (aged 37-83 years) with chest radiation ulcers after radical mastectomy for breast cancer who met the inclusion criteria were admitted to Beijing Jishuitan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, of which 7 patients developed significant pain in the chest region. Various examinations were completed to accurately assess the presence of tumors and depth of radiation ulcers. After tumor recurrence was ruled out, the ulcer wounds were thoroughly debrided (the wound size after debridement was 8 cm×7 cm to 18 cm×18 cm). At the same time, pathological examination of the wound tissue and bacterial culture of the wound tissue/exudate samples were performed. The wound repair surgery was performed at the same time after debridement or one week after vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) treatment. Based on the location and size of the wound, the age and overall condition of the patient, as well as the principle of minimizing damage to the donor site, the most suitable tissue flap was selected to repair the wound. The donor site wound was transplanted with a split-thickness skin graft or sutured together. The level and tissue structure of radiation injury, and the type and size of transplanted tissue flap were recorded. The results of postoperative pathological examination of wound tissue and bacterial culture of wound tissue/exudate samples, pain relief, survival of tissue flap, and wound healing were recorded. During the follow-up, the shape of the tissue flap, whether the ulcer recurred, the wound healing of the donor site, and whether the abdominal wall hernia occurred in the donor site of the rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap were observed.Results:Radiation injury involved ribs and costal cartilage in 21 cases, ribs, sternum, and clavicle in 4 cases, and clavicle and subclavian artery in 2 cases. Twelve patients were transplanted with rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap, eight patients with latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap, three patients with internal thoracic artery perforator flap, three patients with superior epigastric artery perforator flap, and one patient with free deep inferior epigastric perforator flap. The size of tissue flap was 14 cm×8 cm to 20 cm×20 cm. After surgery, no tumor component was found in the pathological examination of wound tissue; 25 patients were positive and 2 patients were negative in bacterial culture results of wound tissue/exudate samples; the pain of 7 patients was completely relieved. The tissue flaps of 25 patients survived completely after surgery, and the wounds healed. Two patients had partial necrosis at the tip of the rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap, which healed after debridement and tissue flap repair. The patients were followed up for 6 months to 2 years. The appearance of the tissue flaps was good, and no ulcer recurred. The linear scar was left on the donor site, and no abdominal wall hernia occurred in the donor site of the rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap.Conclusions:Thorough debridement and VSD treatment after accurate assessment of the extent of damage, and the selection of appropriate tissue flap to repair the wound based on the patient's general condition, the wound characteristics, and the principle of minimizing damage to the donor site are good repair strategies for the chest radiation ulcers after radical mastectomy for breast cancer. By using the strategies, the wounds could be closed as soon as possible, preventing ulcer recurrence and having a good prognosis.

Objective:To explore the clinical effects of chimeric perforator flaps in repairing wounds with bone or internal fixation exposure and wounds with osteomyelitis.Methods:This study was a retrospective observational study. From January 2018 to December 2022, 20 patients with wounds with bone or internal fixation exposure and wounds with osteomyelitis who met the inclusion criteria were admitted to Beijing Jishuitan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, including 19 males and 1 female, aged from 21 to 73 years. Among the 21 wounds, there were 5 wounds with bone exposure, 12 wounds with osteomyelitis, and 4 wounds with internal fixation exposure. After the debridement in the first stage, the wound area was 6 cm×3 cm to 22 cm×10 cm. Then vacuum sealing drainage was carried out for 5 to 7 days. In the second stage, the wounds were covered with pedicled chimeric medial sural artery perforator flap, pedicled chimeric posterior tibialis artery perforator flap, free chimeric perforator flap pedicled with descending branch of lateral circumflex femoral artery, free chimeric medial sural artery perforator flap or free chimeric deep circumflex iliac artery perforator flap with incision area of 7 cm×5 cm to 25 cm×12 cm. The chimeric muscle flap was used to fill and cover irregular deep cavities. The wounds in the flap donor sites were sutured directly or repaired with medium-thickness skin grafts from the thigh. The survival of flap and the healing of wound in flap donor site were observed after operation. The recurrence of infection was followed up.Results:Among the 18 free chimeric perforator flaps, 16 flaps survived successfully; one flap experienced a venous crisis on the day of surgery and survived completely after emergency exploration and re-anastomosis; another one flap had partial distal necrosis, which healed after dressing changes. All the wounds in the flap donor sites healed evenly. All 3 pedicled chimeric perforator flaps survived; one of them developed sub-flap infection but healed after debridement and bone cement placement. The wound in the donor site of 1 flap developed incision dehiscence, which healed successfully after redebridement and suturing. The donor site wounds of the rest 2 flaps healed well. During 3 to 12 months of follow-up, the patients with wounds with bone or internal fixation exposure showed no signs of abnormal exudation or infection, and no infection recurrence was observed in patients with wounds with osteomyelitis.Conclusions:The application of chimeric perforator flaps is effective in covering wounds, filling dead spaces, and controlling infection in wounds with bone or internal fixation exposure and wounds with osteomyelitis. Moreover, this method minimizes the damage to the donor site.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathologic characteristics, gene mutation profile and prognostic influencing factors of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) complicated with follicular lymphoma (FL) (DLBCL/FL).Methods:The clinicopathological data of 50 DLBCL/FL patients admitted to Rui Jin Hospital Affiliated of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from February 2018 to November 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Targeted sequencing was performed to assess the mutation profile of 55 lymphoma-related genes. The clinicopathological characteristics were summarized to evaluate the short-term therapeutic efficacy of all patients. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) of patients. Cox regression risk models were used to assess the factors affecting the OS and PFS.Results:Among 50 DLBCL/FL patients, 23 cases (46%) were male, 22 cases (44%) had an international prognosis index (IPI) score ≥ 2 points, 16 cases (32%) were double-expression lymphoma (DEL) and 4 cases (8%) were double-hit lymphoma (DHL). The complete response (CR) and overall response rates were 68% (34/50) and 78% (39/50), respectively after the first-line therapy. The median follow-up time was 23.3 months (5.1-50.9 months). The 2-year OS rate was 82.1% and 2-year PFS rate was 67.1%; and the median OS and PFS were not reached. Targeted sequencing results showed that the mutation frequencies of KMT2D, MYD88, TP53, BTG2, DTX1, EZH2, CD70, CREBBP, DUSP2, HIST1H1C, HIST1H1E and PRDM1 genes in this cohort were more than 15%. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that male ( HR = 4.264, 95% CI 1.144-15.896, P = 0.031) and IPI score ≥ 2 points ( HR = 6.800, 95% CI 1.771-37.741, P = 0.007) were independent risk factors of PFS in newly diagnosed DLBCL/FL patients, and TP53 mutation ( HR = 4.992, 95% CI 1.027-24.258, P = 0.046) was an risk influencing factor of OS. Conclusions:The proportion of male and female DLBCL/FL patients is similar, with a small proportion of DHL. Mutations of KMT2D, MYD88 and TP53 genes are commonly found in DLBCL/FL patients. Generally, DLBCL/FL patients can have a high overall response and good prognosis. Male and IPI score ≥ 2 points are the independent risk factors of PFS, and TP53 mutation is an independent risk factor of OS in DLBCL/FL patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of the giant deep inferior epigastric artery paraumbilical perforator flap in repairing the circular high-voltage electric burn wounds on the wrist.Methods:A retrospective observational study method was used. From September 2016 to October 2021, thirteen male patients (aged 20-43 years) with annular high voltage (10-100 kV) electrical burns on the wrist were admitted to the Beijing Jishuitan Hospital. At the early stage after injury, the patient's wrist was subjected to incision, tension reduction and debridement, with the wound area after debridement being 27 cm×16 cm-32 cm×19 cm; in 12 patients with vascular injury, the radial or ulnar artery was reconstructed by great saphenous vein transplantation, with the length of 15-25 cm; the wrist wound was repaired by free transplantation of the deep inferior epigastric artery paraumbilical perforator flap (if the wound was giant, the lower abdominal flap carrying other perforators was used), with the area of 30 cm×19 cm-35 cm×20 cm. The donor site was repaired by direct suture+skin grafting or relay flap transplantation. After surgery, the survival of flap in recipient area, as well as survival of the skin or flap in donor site were observed. During follow-up, the appearances of the flap in recipient area and the recovery of hand function, as well as the healing of donor site, occurrence of abdominal wall hernia, and scar in skin graft area were observed.Results:After surgery, all the 13 patients' paraumbilical perforator flaps survived. Among them, 3 patients had subcutaneous fat necrosis at the distal end of the wrist flap, and the wound had mild infection, which healed after re-expansion and dressing change. All the skin grafts in the donor site of 10 patients survived, and the flaps in the donor site of 3 patients survived well. The patients were followed up for 6 months to 3 years. The flaps in recipient area were in good shape, 8 cases had partial recovery of hand function, and 5 cases had loss of finger flexion function; the donor site of abdominal flap healed well with no abdominal hernia occurred, and the skin graft site had no obvious scar hyperplasia and was soft in texture.Conclusions:Early vascular reconstruction after injury, together with free transplantation of the giant deep inferior epigastric artery paraumbilical perforator flap are effective in repairing circular high-voltage electrical burn wounds on the wrist.

【Objective】 To report a case of testicular infarction due to polyarteritis nodosa (PAN), and to discuss its clinical diagnosis and treatment based on relevant literatures at home and abroad, so as to have a better understanding of this rare disease. 【Methods】 Clinical data of a case complaining of scrotal pain who was initially diagnosed as testicular torsion and later confirmed to be testicular infarction due to PAN were retrospectively analyzed, and relevant literatures were reviewed. 【Results】 With glucocorticoid, vasodilator and antioxidant treatment, the patient’s testicular blood flow was improved. 【Conclusion】 Testicular infarction due to PAN is a rare disease which is difficult to diagnose timely. The diagnosis depends on biopsy and the standards formulated by American College of Rheumatology (ACR). Good prognosis can be achieved with timely diagnosis and correct treatment.

【Objective】 To investigate the predictive value of non-invasive parameters in assessing detrusor function in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). 【Methods】 Clinical data of 384 BPH patients to undergo surgery were enrolled and retrospectively analyzed. The patients’ age and medical history time (MHT) were recorded. The free urinary flow rate was measured and maximum flow rate (Qmax) was recorded. Post-void residual (PVR) and voiding volume (VV) were measured with Bladder Scan, and bladder voiding efficiency (BVE) was calculated. Parameters including detrusor pressure (Pdet@Qmax) and Watts factor (WFmax) were collected in invasive urodynamic examination. Patients were grouped as detrusor underactivity (DU) group and non detrusor underactivity (NDU) group according to the results of WFmax, and the factors influencing detrusor function were analyzed with Logistic regression. The optimal cut-off values were confirmed with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. 【Results】 Significant differences were observed in patients’ age, MHT, Qmax, PVR, BVE, Pdet@Qmax between the DU and NDU groups. Logistic regression showed that the overall prediction accuracy was higher when MHT, Qmax and BVE were included. The model prediction formula was Y=6.020-0.451XMHT+0.554XQmax-0.074XBVE. ROC curve showed when age ≥70.5 years and MHT≥ 7.5 years, there was a greater possibility of DU. When Qmax ≥5.7 mL/s and BVE ≥75.5%, the contractile function of detrusor was normal. Model prediction formula Y≥0.72 showed that detrusor contractility was normal. 【Conclusion】 Age, MHT, Qmax and BVE have certain predictive value for assessing detrusor function in BPH patients.
