Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy of intelligent wireless endoscopy in transurethral resection of the prostate, so as to provide evidence for clinical application. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 70 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who underwent transurethral resection of the prostate at Tongling People's Hospital during Jan. 2023 and Dec. 2024. Based on the type of endoscopes used, patients were divided into a wireless endoscopy group and a traditional endoscopy group, with 35 patients in either group. Differences between the two groups were compared in terms of surgical preparation time, operation time, postoperative hospital stay, catheter indwelling time, intraoperative blood loss, surgical complications, and operating comfort during the procedure. Results All 70 operations were successfully completed without severe urinary incontinence. The wireless laparoscopy group demonstrated significantly shorter surgical preparation time compared to the traditional laparoscopy group [(12.14±2.39)min vs. (14.89±0.80)min, P<0.001].There was no statistically significant difference in the operation time between the two groups [(93.51±34.49)min vs. (101.71±34.87)min, P=0.326]. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in postoperative hospital stay, catheter indwelling time, intraoperative blood loss, and surgical complications (P>0.05). The wireless endoscopy group demonstrated significantly higher operating comfort compared to the traditional endoscopy group [(3.94±0.77) vs. (2.57±0.61), P<0.001]. Conclusion The use of intelligent wireless endoscopy for transurethral resection of the prostate is comparable to traditional endoscopy in surgical efficacy and patient safety, but it can shorten preoperative preparation time and improve operator comfort.

Objective To gain insights into the biological characteristics of different populations of Culex tritaeniorhynchus within and around the Yellow Sea wetland from the perspective of the occurrence of resistance, we investigated the levels of resistance to deltamethrin and kdr gene mutation in the wetland and its peripheral areas. Methods Specimens were collected from Cx. tritaeniorhynchus populations at two monitoring sites in the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area, and also from two populations in Yancheng City and the Liuhe District of Nanjing, and the resistance of these mosquitoes to deltamethrin was determined using the CDC biotest bottle method. For each concentration of deltamethrin assessed, a random subset of exposed specimens was selected for amplification of the kdr gene fragment, followed by Sanger sequencing to identify and analyze resistance-associated mutations. Results The LC50 levels of deltamethrin among mosquitoes from the four populations in Luhe, Yancheng, the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and the Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area were 2.048 5, 7.798 2, 3.473 3, and 17.695 5 mg/mL, respectively, with corresponding concentrations of deltamethrin ranging from 0.005 to 5.000,0.050 to 50.000,0.050 to 25.000 and 0.050 to 50.000 mg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the ranges of the KT50 values were 11.76-107.43, 67.05-216.30,29.77-107.43 and 28.40-329.51 min; the 1-h knockdown rates were 34.58%-99.15%, 9.52%-43.80%, 55.09%-73.01%, and 10.09%-68.07%; and the 24-h mortality rates were 12.15%-67.52%,9.52%-79.56%,13.17%-82.21%, and 11.01%-78.99%, respectively. With respect to kdr gene mutation, we assayed a total of 63,70,59, and 57 mosquitoes for the four populations, for which we detected L1014F mutation frequencies of 14.29%, 35.00%, 20.34%, and 31.58%, respectively, with a majority of these mutations being heterozygous for resistance. In addition, five adult mosquitoes were identified has having synonymous mutations at site 1011[i. e. , AAT(asparagine)mutation to AAC(asparagine)]. Conclusions Our findings revealed the clear resistance of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus to deltamethrin in the Yancheng region of the Yellow Sea wetland, and the resistance phenotype and kdr frequency of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment were comparable to those of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment, thereby indicating that the resistance of different populations of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus was homogeneous under the pressure of different insecticide selection within and around the wetland. However, the underlying mechanisms need to be further studied.

ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors for post-acute pancreatitis diabetes mellitus (PPDM-A) in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP), to construct a nomogram prediction model, and to provide a reference for the development of individualized treatment regimens. MethodsA total of 351 patients with AP who were admitted to Xuzhou Municipal Hospital Affiliated to Xuzhou Medical University from June 2021 to January 2025 were prospectively enrolled, and they were randomly divided into modeling group with 246 patients and validation group with 105 patients at a ratio of 7∶3. According to the presence or absence of PPDM-A in the patients with AP, the modeling group was further divided into PPDM-A group with 86 patients and non-PPDM-A group with 160 patients. Clinical data were collected from all patients. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis was used to determine independent variables, and a Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors for PPDM-A. R software was used to construct a nomogram model. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to assess the discriminatory ability of the model, and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test was used to test the model fitting degree, and the calibration curve was used to evaluate the model consistency; and decision curve analysis (DCA) was used to assess its clinical application value. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. ResultsAmong the 246 patients, 86 developed PPDM-A, resulting in an incidence rate of 34.96%. There were significant differences between the PPDM-A group and the non-PPDM-A group in the proportion of patients with an age of ≥60 years (65.12% vs 40.62%, P<0.05), male sex (75.58% vs 55.63%, P<0.05), a body mass index (BMI) of ≥24 kg/m2 (63.95% vs 37.50%, P<0.05), alcoholic AP (56.98% vs 36.87%, P<0.05), moderate-to-severe AP (54.65% vs 35.00%, P<0.05), or a computed tomography severity index (CTSI) score of ≥4 points (48.84% vs 28.75%, P<0.05), as well as significant differences in the levels of blood calcium (1.46±0.35 mmol/L vs 1.89±0.37 mmol/L, P<0.05) and random blood glucose (Glu) (17.68±4.12 mmol/L vs 11.68±4.27 mmol/L, P<0.05). The LASSO regression analysis obtained 8 independent variables. The Logistic regression analysis showed that age, sex, BMI, alcoholic AP, moderate-to-severe AP, CTSI score, and Glu were risk factors for PPDM-A (all P<0.05), while blood calcium was a protective factor (P<0.05). The model had an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.932 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.903 — 0.962) in the modeling group, and the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test yielded χ2=7.346 (P=0.728), the accuracy of model fitting was good; the calibration curve showed that the predicted probability was consistent with the actual probability, indicating that the consistency was good. The model had an AUC of 0.835 (95%CI: 0.753 — 0.917) in the validation group, and the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test yielded χ2=7.014 (P=0.711), the accuracy of model fitting was good; the calibration curve showed that the predicted probability was consistent with the actual probability, indicating that the consistency was good. The DCA results of the modeling group showed that the model exhibited a high clinical value in evaluating PPDM-A when the threshold probability was 0.13 — 0.94. ConclusionAge, sex, BMI, alcoholic AP, moderate-to-severe AP, blood calcium, CTSI score, and Glu are influencing factors for PPDM-A. The nomogram model constructed based on the above influencing factors shows good performance in predicting the risk of PPDM-A and can thus provide a reference for developing prevention strategies for PPDM-A in clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of preserving the urethral ridge during Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate(HoLEP)in preventing postoperative retrograde ejaculation and to evaluate its impact on sexual function.Methods:This prospective cohort study enrolled patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)who underwent HoLEP at Xiamen Haicang Hospital(Haicang Hospital Affiliated to Xiamen Medical College)from November 2022 to June 2024. Inclusion criteria were as follows:diagnosis of BPH confirmed by color Doppler ultrasound;International Prostate Symptom Score(IPSS)> 7;maximum urinary flow rate(Q max)< 15 ml/s;prostate-specific antigen(PSA)< 4 ng/ml;and an active sexual life with intact antegrade ejaculation. Exclusion criteria included neurogenic bladder,active urinary tract infection(UTI),and other relevant conditions. Patients were grouped based on the operating surgeon's comprehensive judgment during surgery,considering the degree of prostatic median lobe hyperplasia(preserved if hyperplasia was mild,not preserved if severe). The EP-HoLEP group underwent “tunnel technique” enucleation of the middle lobe hyperplasia with preservation of the urethral ridge,while the HoLEP group underwent conventional prostate enucleation. Primary outcomes included postoperative retrograde ejaculation rate,International Index of Erectile Function(IIEF),Ejaculation Projection Score(EPS),IPSS,Quality of Life Score(QOL),Q max,post-void residual urine volume(PVR),operative time,and postoperative complications. Univariate analysis was used to screen potential influencing factors,followed by multivariate logistic regression to identify independent predictors. Results:Seventy patients with BPH were enrolled,with 35 in each group. Baseline characteristics,including age[(69.97 ± 5.14)years vs.(72.34 ± 5.08)years],body mass index(BMI)[(22.99 ± 1.41)kg/m2 vs.(23.16 ± 1.38)kg/m2],prostate volume[47.4(31.9,59.4)ml vs. 44.2(34.9,61.7)ml],PSA[4.0(1.9,8.2)ng/ml vs. 3.1(2.6,5.0)ng/ml],hemoglobin[(130.09 ± 12.92)g/L vs.(125.69 ± 17.26)g/L],IPSS[17(10,22)vs. 17(10,27)],QOL[5(4,5)vs. 4(4,5)],Q max[7.5(6.3,9.1)ml/s vs. 7.0(5.9,8.9)ml/s]and PVR[65(22,167)ml vs. 60(16,150)ml]showed no statistically significant differences between the two groups( P > 0.05). Operative time[65(55,76)min vs. 63(55,73)min],postoperative 2-hour hemoglobin[(124.17 ± 14.89)g/L vs.(120.11 ± 15.44)g/L],and postoperative hospital stay[(3.94 ± 1.89)days vs.(3.66 ± 1.53)days]were also comparable between the two groups( P > 0.05). No significant difference was observed in the decrease in IIEF score[1(0,2)vs. 2(0,6), P = 0.203]. EPS at 3 months[2(1,3)vs. 1(0,2), P < 0.001]and at 6 months[2(1,2)vs. 1(0,2), P < 0.001]postoperatively were significantly higher in the EP-HoLEP group. The incidence of postoperative UTI did not differ significantly[5.7%(2/35)vs. 2.9%(1/35), P = 1.00]. Two cases of urinary retention occurred after catheter removal in the EP-HoLEP group,while none occurred in the HoLEP group. No blood transfusions or urethral strictures were reported in either group. The incidence of retrograde ejaculation was significantly lower in the EP-HoLEP group[28.6%(10/35)vs. 68.6%(24/35), P <0.001]. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that urethral ridge preservation was an independent protective factor for retrograde ejaculation after HoLEP( OR = 0.159,95% CI 0.053 ? 0.476, P = 0.001). Conclusions:Urethral ridge preservation during HoLEP is safe and feasible,significantly reduces retrograde ejaculation,and preserves ejaculatory function,though it offers limited erectile function preservation. This approach is suitable for middle-aged,young,or younger elderly patients who prioritize ejaculatory quality,and provides clinical evidence for surgical optimization.

This study aims to analyze the screening results and epidemiological characteristics of prostate cancer (PCa) among elderly males in the rural areas of Songjiang, Shanghai City, through the implementation of a preliminary prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening based on a community-linkage model, and to explore an effective screening approach. A retrospective observational study design was employed to collect data from residents who underwent PSA screening at Songjiang Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, in collaboration with multiple community health service centers in Songjiang District, Shanghai City, between June 2022 and June 2024, through free clinics and annual health examinations. Prostate biopsy was recommended for individuals with total PSA (tPSA) levels >10 ng/ml and those with 4 ng/ml≤tPSA≤10 ng/ml and abnormal free-to-total PSA (f/tPSA) ratios. Clinical characteristics of detected PCa patients were analyzed. Follow-up was conducted through phone calls and home visits by family doctors, coupled with enhanced health education. The results indicated that a total of 17 198 residents participated in the screening, among which 2 234 (12.99%) had tPSA levels between 4 ng/ml and 10 ng/ml, and 257 (1.49%) had tPSA levels >10 ng/ml. Ultimately, 417 residents underwent prostate biopsy, with 171 being diagnosed with PCa, yielding a positive biopsy rate of 41.00% and a PCa detection rate of 0.99%. The predominant pathological subtype among PCa patients was adenocarcinoma (168 cases, 98.24%). Of the 146 PCa patients who received treatment, the majority were classified as intermediate or high-risk (124 cases, 84.93%). Furthermore, with the optimization of the screening model, there was a significant increase in the proportion of subsequent outpatient visits. In conclusion, the community-linkage-based PSA screening model demonstrated high effectiveness in screening for PCa among elderly males in the rural areas of Songjiang, Shanghai City. Epidemiological findings revealed that PCa patients in this region are primarily composed of intermediate and high-risk groups, highlighting the need for intensified early screening and health education.

Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.

Objective:To investigate the management options for loop plate cutting of the tibial cortex during reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) by the all-inside technique.Methods:From January 2022 to December 2024, a total of 13 patients with ACL injury who underwent all-inside reconstruction with tibial lateral loop plate cutting of the cortex and immediate revision for ACL injuries at Department of Sports Medicine, the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China were retrospectively analyzed (cut group). There were 5 males and 8 females with an average age of 28.7±9.1 years (range, 17-39 years). During the revision, a transverse tunnel was drilled at the distal end of the tibial tunnel, and the loop plate was fixed to the lateral tibial cortex through the transverse tunnel. Matched by gender, age, and side, the patients who underwent ACL reconstruction with all-inside loop steel without cutting the tibial cortex during the same period (the uncut group) were selected as the control group at a ratio of 1∶2, including 10 males and 16 females, aged 29.1±9.3 years (range, 17-39 years). The visual analogue scale (VAS), Tegner score, International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) and Lysholm score for knee pain before and after surgery were compared between the two groups, and bone tunnel enlargement was assessed using the Peyrache grading scale.Results:All patients were successfully operated and followed up for 13.1±2.5 months and 13.3±2.6 months, respectively. The Lysholm scores of the cutting group before surgery, 6 months after surgery, and 1 year after surgery were 35.44±15.69, 75.21±16.77, and 93.47±18.56 respectively, while those of the uncut group were 37.81±17.33, 71.45±15.82, and 91.05±19.54. The Lysholm scores of both groups 6 months and 1 year after surgery were higher than those before surgery, and the Lysholm scores 1 year after surgery were higher than those 6 months after surgery, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the Lysholm scores between the two groups before and after surgery ( P>0.05). The IKDC scores of the cutting group before surgery, 6 months after surgery, and 1 year after surgery were 39.12±14.28, 69.52±15.36, and 84.24±17.91 respectively, while those of the uncut group were 37.46±11.55, 72.81±17.73, and 87.62±18.52. The IKDC scores of both groups 6 months and 1 year after surgery were higher than those before surgery, and the IKDC scores 1 year after surgery were higher than those 6 months after surgery, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the IKDC scores between the two groups before and after surgery ( P>0.05). The Tegner scores of the cutting group before surgery, 6 months after surgery, and 1 year after surgery were 1.61±1.11, 3.59±1.66, and 5.59±1.79 respectively, while those of the non-cutting group were 1.57±1.05, 3.47±1.51, and 5.41±1.63. The Tegner scores of both groups 6 months and 1 year after surgery were higher than those before surgery, and the Tegner scores 1 year after surgery were higher than those 6 months after surgery, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the Tegner scores between the two groups before and after surgery ( P>0.05). According to Peyrache's grading criteria, 7 cases in the cutting group had femoral side bone tunnel enlargement and 8 cases had tibial side bone tunnel enlargement; 12 cases in the non-cutting group had femoral side bone tunnel enlargement and 15 cases had tibial side bone tunnel enlargement, with no statistically significant differences (χ 2=0.205, P=0.650; χ 2=0.053, P=0.818). At the last follow-up, there were 2 cases of Lachman grade I in the cutting group and 3 cases in the non-cutting group, 1 case of joint stiffness in the cutting group and 2 cases in the non-cutting group. None of the patients in the two groups had vascular nerve injury, deep vein thrombosis, or intra-articular infection. Conclusion:The method of drilling a transverse tunnel at the distal end of the outer opening of the tibial tunnel and fixing the loop plate to the lateral tibial cortex through the transverse tunnel, along with cutting the tibial cortex, can improve the knee joint function.
