Objective To evaluate the feasibility, safety and clinical outcome of laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer in elderly patients with common chronic comorbidities. Methods The clinical data of 192 elderly patients with rectal cancer and common chronic comorbidities who were admitted to the Nanfang Hospital from January 2003 to December 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were divided into laparoscope group (n=91) and open group (n = 101). The operative procedures, clinicopathological data and outcomes of the two groups were collected and compared. All data were analyzed using the t test and chi-square test, and the survival of patients was analyzed using the life table and Kaplan-Meier curves. Results The sphincter preservation rate,operation time, postoperative length of hospital stay, morbidity rate were 85.7% (78/91), (194 ± 61) minutes,(14 ±8)days, 24.2% (22/91) in the laparoscope group, and they were 85.1% (86/101), (187 ±58) minutes,(14 ±8)days and 28.7% (29/101) in the open group, with no significant difference between the two groups (x2=0.012, t=0.874,-0.265, x2 =0. 505 , P > 0. 05) . The intraoperative blood loss was (108 ±78)ml in the laparoscope group, which was significantly less than (270 ± 600) ml in the open group (t =-2. 650, P <0.05). The time to first flatus, time to liquid diet, time to out-of-bed activity were (3 ± 1) days, (4 ± 2) days and (3 ± 1)days, which were significantly shorter than (4 ± 1)days, (5 ± 2)days and (5 ± 1)days in the open group,respectively (t =-4. 545,-4. 587,-13. 310, P < 0.05). The length of rectum resected and the number of lymph node dissected were (18 ± 5)cm and 9 ± 7 in the laparoscope group, and (18 ± 5)cm and 9 ± 8 in the open group, respectively, with no significant difference between the two groups (t = 1. 457, 0. 021, P > 0.05), while the distance of distal resection margin to the tumors was (3.8 ± 1.5) cm, which was significantly longer than (3.1 ± 1.5) cm of the open group (t = 0. 283, P < 0. 05). The 3-year cumulative survival rate, overall recurrence rate, local recurrence rate and distal metastasis rate in the laparoscope group were 76%, 12. 1% (11/91), 2.2% (2/91) and 9.9% (9/91), and they were 82%, 14.9% (15/101), 6.9% (7/101), 7.9% (8/101) in the open group, respectively, with no significant difference between the two groups (U=2. 600, x2 =0. 312, 2.400,0. 230, P > 0.05). There were no significant difference in the cumulative survival rate between patients in TNM stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ in the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion Laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer is safe and feasible for elderly patients with common chronic comorbidities, and it has the advantages in quick recovery of patients after operaion.

OBJECTIVE:
To describe tne regional different factors which impact on early cochlear implantation in prelingual deaf children between eastern and western regions of China.
METHOD:
The charts of 113 children who received the cochlear implantation after 24 months old were reviewed and analyzed. Forty-five of them came from the eastern region (Jiangsu, Zhejiang or Shanghai) while 68 of them came from the western region (Ningxia or Guizhou). Parental interviews were conducted to collect information regarding the factors that impact on early cochlear implantation. Result:Based on the univariate logistic regression analysis, the odds ratio (OR) value of universal newborn hearing screening (UNHS) was 5. 481, which indicated the correlation of UNHS with early cochlear implantation is significant. There was statistical difference between the 2 groups (P<0. 01). For the financial burden, the OR value was 3. 521(strong correlation) and there was statistical difference between the 2 groups (P<0. 01). For the communication barriers and community location, the OR value was 0. 566 and 1. 128 respectively, and there was no statistical difference between the 2 groups (P>0. 05). The multivariate analysis indicated that the UNHS and financial burden are statistically different between the eastern and western regions (P=0. 00 and 0. 040 respectively).
CONCLUSION
The UNHS and financial burden are statistically different between the eastern reinforced in the western region. In addition, the government and society should provide powerful policy and more financial support in the western region of China. The innovation of management system is also helpful to the early cochlear implantation.

Objective:To investigate the effect of chemotherapy combined with sorafenib on the prognosis of FLT3 internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD)-positive acute myeloid leukemia and to find a more effective treatment.Methods:The clinical data of 60 patients who were newly diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia and who received treatment in The Second Affiliated Hospital of Qiqihar Medical University from January 2015 to January 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into three groups according to whether they were positive for FLT3-ITD and the treatment method they used. The observation group (FLT3-ITD-positive, n = 19) were treated with sorafenib based on routine chemotherapy. The control group 1 (FLT3-ITD-positive, n = 21) was treated only with routine chemotherapy. The control group 2 (FLT3-ITD-negative, n = 20) was treated only with routine chemotherapy. After the first and fourth courses of treatment, clinical efficacy was compared among the three groups. Results:After the first course of treatment, the complete remission rate in control group 2 was 50.0% (10/20), which was significantly higher than 15.8% (3/19) in the observation group and 4.8% (1/21) in the control group 1 ( H = 13.39, P < 0.05). After the fourth course of treatment, the complete remission rate in the observation group, control group 2, and control group 1 was 63.2% (12/19), 60.0% (12/20), and 4.8% (1/21), respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( H = 19.21, P < 0.05). Four-year follow-up results showed that the median survival time in the observation group, control group 1, and control group 2 was 36.63, 24.15, and 45.00 months respectively. The event-free survival in the observation group, control group 1, and control group 2 was 18.00, 9.82, and 24.90 months, respectively. The median survival time and the event-free survival in the control group 2 were significantly longer than those in the observation group and control group 1 ( χ2 = 19.93, 23.04, both P < 0.001). Conclusion:Chemotherapy combined with sorafenib for treating newly-diagnosed FLT3-ITD-positive acute myeloid leukemia can provide comprehensive benefits and have advantages for survival over chemotherapy without sorafenib and chemotherapy alone.

Osteoporosis (OP) is a metabolic disorder characterized by microstructural deterioration of bone and increased bone fragility due to reduced bone mass, which can cause the development of bone-related diseases. This condition imposes significant economic and psychological burdens on patients. While modern medicine has extensively researched the pathogenesis of OP, it remains incompletely understood. Current clinical management primarily relies on anti-resorptive drugs and synthetic metabolic agents. However, long-term use of some medications may yield suboptimal therapeutic outcomes and lead to severe adverse reactions. Given the necessity for prolonged or lifelong treatment for OP, there is a critical need to identify highly effective, safe, and cost-effective pharmaceutical interventions. In light of evolving disease management paradigms and recent advancements in OP research, traditional Chinese medicine has demonstrated emerging advantages in addressing this condition. Through literature review, this study delves into the pathogenesis of OP from five perspectives: hormonal dysregulation, autophagy, ferroptosis, oxidative stress, and intestinal flora alteration. Furthermore, it summarizes the therapeutic efficacy and specific mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine monomers and compound formulas against OP through regulating hormone levels, interfering with autophagy, inhibiting ferroptosis, counteract oxidative stress,and maintain intestinal flora balance. These multifaceted insights are expected to provide theoretical reference and guide future clinical traditional Chinese medicine approaches for preventing and managing OP.

The idea of disease prevention runs through the traditional medical diagnosis and treatment system,and also plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of gastric precancerous lesions.This article organically combines disease differentiation,syndrome differentiation,symptom differentiation,and constitution differentiation to form a four in one diagnosis and treatment model.Disease differentiation means identifying the name of the disease and grasping the progression stage of the disease;syndrome differentiation means combining the macroscopic and microscopic aspects to accurately grasp the pathogenesis;symptom differentiation means identifying complications and clinical problems that need to be solved urgently;constitution differentiation means predicting syn-drome type bias and disease development.This model not only enables systematic diagnosis and treatment of gastric precancerous le-sions,but also provides targeted diagnosis and treatment plans for patients,with the characteristics of comprehensiveness,full process,and personalization.Therefore,combining the four in one diagnosis and treatment model of disease differentiation-syndrome differentia-tion-symptom differentiation-constitution identification with the disease prevention theory is conducive to the early detection of gastric precancerous lesions,timely tracking of the progress of the lesions,and the adoption of correct,comprehensive,and full-process inter-vention methods to reverse gastric precancerous lesions,which can play a positive role in the diagnosis,treatment,and prevention of gastric precancerous lesions.

OBJECTIVE: To study the improvement effect and mechanism of methylated urolithin A on oleic acid-induced lipid accumulation in human liver cancer Huh-7 cells. METHODS: Oleic acid was adopted to induce lipid accumulation model cells. Huh-7 cells were divided into control group (culture medium), model group (1 mmol/L oleic acid), low-dose group (1 mmol/L oleic acid+10 μmol/L methylated urolithin A) and high-dose group (1 mmol/L oleic acid+20 μmol/L methylated urolithin A). Oil red O staining was used to observe lipid accumulation in cells. Triglyceride(TG) enzyme assay was applied to determine the TG content in cells. PCR was employed to detect the mRNA expression of FASN, SREBP-1, PPAR-α and PPAR-γ in cells. Western blotting was used to determine the protein expression of FASN in cells. RESULTS: After induced by oleic acid, a large amount of lipid droplet accumulated around the cells; the intracellular lipid and TG content, mRNA expression levels of FASN, SREBP-1 and PPAR-γ, protein expression levels of FASN were increased significantly, while mRNA expression level of PPAR-α was decreased significantly (P<0.01). After intervened with methylated urolithin A, lipid droplet around the cells decreased significantly; the contents of lipid and TG in cells were decreased significantly, while the mRNA expression levels of FASN, SREBP-1 and PPARγ and protein expression level of FASN were decreased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Methylated urolithin A can improve oleic acid-induced lipid accumulation in Huh-7 cells, the mechanism of which may be associated with inhibiting fat synthesis, promoting lipid metabolism and down-regulating the expression of metabolism-related factors as FASN, SREBP-1 and PPAR-γ.
