Objective To explore the effects of oleanolic acid on NF-κB/caspase-9 signaling pathway in kidneys of rat with diabetic nephropathy.Methods The diabetic nephropathy model rats were established,and the model rats were randomly divided intooleanolic acid low,medium and high dose groups,metformin group,and model group,with another 12 healthy SD rats as control group.The levels of blood glucose were measured at weeks 1,2 and 3 post-drug administration,and blood lipid and 24h urine urinary microalbumin(UMA)were measured after entire drug administration.Furthermore,we also detected the renal histopathology of rats,apoptosis of renal tubular,glomerular cells,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6)and protein expression of NF-κB/caspase-9 signaling pathway.Results Compared with the control group,the model group demonstrated higher levels of blood glucose at weeks 1,2 and 3,blood lipid,UMA,TNF-α and IL-6,higher proportion of apoptotic renal tubular and glomerular,and higher expressions of caspase-9 protein and p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the pathological damage of renal tissue in the metformin group and oleanolic acid low,middle and high dose groups were alleviated,the levels of blood glucose at weeks 1,2 and 3,blood lipid,UMA,TNF-α and IL-6,the proportion of apoptotic renal tubular and glomerular,and the expressions of caspase-9 proteins and p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65 were decreased,and these indexes in oleanolic acid groups showed a dose-dependent manner(P＜0.05).Conclusion Oleanolic acid can improve the metabolism of glucose and lipid,reduce the pathological damage of renal tissue,inhibit the apoptosis of renal tubular and glomerular,and inhibit the NF-κB/caspase-9 pathway in diabetic nephropathy rats.

Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors, and postoperative radiotherapy remains an essential component of its treatment. In recent years, hypofractionated radiotherapy has gradually become the recommended approach for postoperative breast cancer treatment. Compared with conventional fractionated radiotherapy, hypofractionated regimens shorten the overall treatment duration, enhance patient convenience, and reduce treatment costs, while achieving comparable long-term efficacy and maintaining good quality of life. Based on relevant domestic and international studies and clinical experience, this consensus establishes expert recommendations regarding indications, prescribed doses, dose constraints for organs at risk (OAR), implementation methods, and plan evaluation for hypofractionated radiotherapy after breast cancer surgery, with a particular focus on moderately hypofractionated (MHF) and ultrahypofractionated (UHF) regimens. MHF radiotherapy is applicable to whole-breast irradiation, chest wall irradiation, and regional nodal irradiation, and is suitable for most breast cancer patients. UHF radiotherapy, which employs a higher dose per fraction to further shorten the treatment course, is suitable for patients requiring rapid therapy or prioritizing treatment convenience. Although the short-term efficacy of UHF radiotherapyis similar to that of MHF radiotherapy, its long-term efficacy and safety require further clinical validation. Meanwhile, potential adverse effects of UHF, such as breast induration and atrophy, should be carefully assessed. Therefore, radiotherapy dose and fractionation regimen should be individualized according to patient-specific factors, particularly considering OAR dose constraints. Rational selection of radiotherapy regimens can minimize adverse effects while maintaining therapeutic efficacy, ultimately improving patient outcomes and quality of life. This consensus provides scientific guidance for the clinical and research application of hypofractionated radiotherapy in breast cancer.

We reported a 54-year-old female patient with severe tricuspid regurgitation, who received mechanic valve in the mitral position 15 years ago. The patient’s Society of Thoracic Surgeons score was 8.27%, and was intolerant to open heart surgery, so she was recommended for transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement via right vena jugularis interna. The procedures were guided by echocardiography and X ray fluoroscopy on November 13, 2021, the prosthesis was implanted successfully, and the patient was recoved without any adverse events. After 1 month follow-up, her general condition was apparently improved.

Synthetic lethality is a proven effective antitumor strategy that has attracted great attention. Large-scale screening has revealed many synthetic lethal genetic phenotypes, and relevant small-molecule drugs have also been implemented in clinical practice. Increasing evidence suggests that CDKs, constituting a kinase family predominantly involved in cell cycle control, are synthetic lethal factors when combined with certain oncogenes, such as

Objective:To evaluate the application of a 3D printed positioner for hip rotation center in total hip arthroplasty.Methods:From August 2015 to December 2017, 14 patients were treated by unilateral total hip arthroplasty at Department Ⅰ of Joint Surgery, Orthopaedics Hospital of Zhengzhou for avascular necrosis of femoral head or femoral neck fracture. They were 8 males and 6 females with an average age of 51.8 years (from 37 to 65 years). All their surgeries were assisted by a 3D printed positioner for hip rotation center. Postoperatively, the abduction and anteversion of acetabular cup and the hip rotation center were measured, the agreement between the hip rotation center of the affected side (O2) and the anatomical rotation center of the healthy side (O1) was assessed, and the function of the affected hip and complications were recorded at the last follow-up.Results:The 14 patients were followed up for an average of 18 months (from 6 to 24 months). The postoperative ordinates of O2 and O1 were respectively 19.36 mm±3.61 mm and 18.33 mm±3.41 mm while their abscissas 39.93 mm±2.97 mm and 39.99 mm±3.16 mm, indicating agreement between O2 and O1 ( P>0.05). The postoperative abduction and anteversion of the cup were within a normal range (39.3°±3.2°and 14.6°±1.2°, respectively). The last follow-up showed that their preoperative Harris hip scores (42.3±3.2) were significantly improved (94.3±4.7) ( t=2.873, P=0.002) and that 13 cases were rated as excellent and one as good. X-ray follow-up showed good position of their acetabular prostheses, no loosening of the cups or femoral prostheses, and no heterotopic ossification. Conclusion:A 3D printed positioner for hip rotation center can effectively assist reconstruction of the hip rotation center and accurate implantation of acetabular prosthesis in total hip arthroplasty.
