Objective To screen down regulated genes and find down regulated novel genes in gastric cancer. Methods Genes mRNA expression were detected between gastric cancer and normal gastric mucous membrane of five patients using cDNA microarray. Genes mRNA expression signals on hybridization membranes were analysized with computer software. Down regulated genes in gastric cancer were screened. cDNA suppression subtraction library was established by counterpart normal gastric mucous membrane mRNA(Tester) subtracting gastric cancer tissues mRNA(Driver) of five patients. After identification of the subtraction library, positive clones choosen randomly were sequenced , and down regulated novel genes in gastric cancer were screened. Some of the genes were identified by RT PCR.Results Down regulated genes in gastric cancer consist of 60 genes including tumor suppressing genes, apoptosis related genes, DNA replication and transcript or translate related genes, cell cycle related genes, cell migration related genes, etc. Two unknown gene fragments in gastric cancer were cloned. Conclusions Sixty down regulated genes in gastric cancer are confirmed. They are involved in gastric tumorigenicity and metastasis. cDNA subtraction library of gastric cancer was constructed successfully. Two down regulated novel gene fragments in gastric cancer was found.

In recent years,mechanical thrombectomy has been the most important research progress in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction,especially the positive results of five endovascular therapy studies in 2015 has rewritten its clinical guidelines.However,the focus of these studies was mainly on the small vessel infarction(SVI),and the inclusion criteria of these studies include the following aspects:ASPECTS ≥6 points,Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score within 6 hours after stroke onset,the infarct volume＜70 mL within 6-24 hours after stroke onset,and the presence of image mismatch or the presence of mismatch between clinical condition and perfusion imaging.The above studies excluded patients with ASPECTS＜6 points or infarct volume ≥70 mL of large core infarction(LCI).With the continuous progress of the endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke(AIS),the mechanical thrombectomy therapy strategy has crossed from the"time window"to the"tissue window",meanwhile,the therapeutic goal of mechanical thrombectomy has also moved from treating SVI to a new era of treating LCI that has been a very hot topic recently.Whether endovascular treatment is beneficial for patients with LCI remains uncertain.This paper aims to make a comprehensive review concerning the relevant research progress in endovascular therapy for anterior circulation large core ischemic stroke,including the imaging determination and study inclusion criteria of LCI,the postoperative blood pressure management,and the factors influencing ineffective recanalization and prognosis.(J Intervent Radiol,2023,32:1256-1262)

The ovary has two main functions: folliculogenesis and hormone secretion, both of which are closely related to female fertility. Ovarian aging is characterized by morphological changes, a reduction in follicle numbers, and fluctuations in hormone levels. It not only leads to a decline in female fertility, but is also considered to be a key driver of multi-organ aging. In addition, the disruption of sex hormone secretion associated with ovarian aging can lead to the occurrence of related diseases and symptoms, such as cardiovascular diseases, sleep disorders, and hot flashes. Due to the influence of social pressures and personal career planning, many modern women are increasingly postponing childbearing. However, ovarian aging does not slow down with advancing age. As a result, many women face issues such as infertility when they are ready to have children, having missed their optimal childbearing age. This leads to growing interest in research on delaying ovarian aging. Non-human primates share the closest evolutionary relationship with humans, with a genomic sequence identity of 93%, which grants them unparalleled advantages over other model animals in studies on physiological metabolism, reproductive endocrinology, and developmental aging. Findings obtained in non-human primates are also more reliably translatable to human medical research. This study begins by discussing the current state of ovarian aging research and treatment strategies, highlighting the advantages of non-human primates as laboratory animals for ovarian aging research. It then reviews research progress in areas such as reproductive endocrine hormone levels, ovarian morphology and function, and other physiological changes associated with ovarian aging. Furthermore, it summarizes existing challenges and future research directions, aiming to provide valuable insights for researchers.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the preliminary efficacy of video-assisted anal fistula treatment (VAAFT) for complex anal fistula.

METHODSClinical data of 11 consecutive patients with complex anal fistula undergoing VAAFT in our department from May to July 2015 were reviewed. VAAFT was performed to manage the fistula under endoscope without cutting or resection.

RESULTSVAAFT was successfully performed in all the 11 patients. The internal ostium was closed using mattress suture in 10 cases, and Endo-GIA stapler in 1 case. The mean operative time was (42.0±12.4) min, mean hospital stay was (4.1±1.5) d. Complication included bleeding and perianal infection in 1 case respectively. After 1 to 3.2 months follow-up, success rate was 72.7%(8/11), and no fecal incontinence was observed.

CONCLUSIONVideo-assisted anal fistula treatment is an effective, safe and minimally invasive surgical procedure for complex anal fistula with preservation of anal sphincter function.

Objective To investigate the effect of intrarectal local anesthesia (IRLA) with heated oxybuprocaine gel on pain during transrectal ultrasound guided prostate biopsy (TRUSPB).Methods A total of 150 cases patients who underwent TRUSPB in Huzhou Central Hospital from January to June 2023 were prospectively taken into.The patients were randomly divided into group A (routine group),group B (oxybuprocaine gel for IRLA at room temperature) and group C (oxybuprocaine gel for IRLA at 40℃),with 50 cases in each group.Nurses who were unaware of the anesthesia type used visual analog scale (VAS) to score the pain level of patients at each stage (VAS Ⅰ:when the ultrasound probe was inserted into the rectum;VAS Ⅱ:during the biopsy;VAS Ⅲ:30 minutes after biopsy),and the incidence of complications after biopsy were compared.Results The VAS Ⅱ score of group C was lower than that of group A and group B,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05) in the VAS Ⅰ,VAS Ⅲ scores,and incidence of complications after biopsy among the three groups.There was no allergic reaction to oxybuprocaine gel.Conclusion In TRUSPB,IRLA with heated oxybuprocaine gel can effectively control pain without increasing incidence of complications.
