ObjectiveExploring the role of microRNA126 （miRNA126） in chronic kidney disease combined with atherosclerosis （CKD AS） by regulating the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） signaling pathway and the mechanism of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction in the intervention of CKD AS rats with 5/6 nephrectomy combined with high-fat feeding. MethodA total of 60 SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group， model group， losartan group， and low， medium， and high dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction. The CKD AS rat model was established by 5/6 nephrectomy combined with high-fat feeding for 10 weeks. The low， medium， and high dose groups （6.0， 12.0， 24.0 g·kg^-1·d^-1） of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction and the losartan group （20 mg·kg^-1·d^-1） were gavaged， and the corresponding intervention was carried out for eight weeks. Then， the rats were killed， and samples were collected for corresponding detection. Fully automated biochemical analyzers were used to detect kidney function and blood lipids in rats： blood creatinine （SCr）， blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， total cholesterol （TC）， triglyceride （TG）， and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C） levels. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） and Masson staining of aortic tissue and pathological observation under a light microscope were carried out， and autophagosomes and autophagy lysosomes were observed by transmission electron microscopy. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to determine the mRNA levels of miRNA126， PI3K， Akt， and mTOR in rats， and Western blot was used to determine the protein expression levels of phosphorylated （p）-PI3K， PI3K， p-Akt， Akt， p -mTOR， mTOR， benzyl chloride 1 （Beclin-1）， and microtubule-associated protein light chain 3Ⅱ/Ⅰ （LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ）. ResultCompared with the sham operation group， the serum SCr， BUN， TC， TG， and LDL-C in the model group were significantly increased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the SCr， BUN， TC， TG， and LDL-C were decreased in the losartan group and low， medium， and high dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction （P<0.05）. Compared with the sham operation group， thickening plaques， infiltration of mononuclear macrophages， a small number of foam cells， disordered arrangement of smooth muscle fibers in the tunica media， and increased collagen fibers were observed in the model group， and the lesions in the losartan group and Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction groups were alleviated compared with those in the model group. Compared with the model group， the number of autophagosomes and autophagy lysosomes increased in the medium and high dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction. Compared with the sham operation group， the expression of miRNA126 in the aortic tissue of the model group was significantly decreased （P<0.01）， and the mRNA expressions of PI3K， Akt， and mTOR were significantly increased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the expression of miRNA126 in the aortic tissue of rats in high， medium， and low dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction and losartan group was significantly increased （P<0.01）， while the mRNA expressions of PI3K， Akt， and mTOR were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the sham operation group， the protein expressions of p-PI3K， PI3K， p-Akt， Akt， p-mTOR， and mTOR in the model group were significantly increased （P<0.01）， while the protein levels of Beclin-1， LC3Ⅰ， and LC3Ⅱ were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the protein expressions of p-PI3K， PI3K， p-Akt， Akt， p-mTOR， and mTOR in the losartan group and low， medium， and high dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction were decreased （P<0.05）， while the protein levels of Beclin-1 and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ were increased （P<0.05）. ConclusionThe expression of miRNA126 is decreased in the aortic tissue of CKD AS rats， and the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway is activated to inhibit autophagy flux. Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction regulates the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway through miRNA126， restores the autophagy of aortic endothelial cells， protects the damage of CKD vessels， reduces the formation of As plaques， and slows the development of cardiovascular complications.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 558 radical prostatectomy patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University from January 2010 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The average age was 67.9 (40-87) years old, and the average body mass index was 24.56 (15.12-35.94) kg/m 2. The average PSA was 41.07 ng/ml, including 48 cases<10 ng/ml, 98 cases 10-20 ng/ml, and 412 cases>20 ng/ml. There were 123, 214, 118, 89, and 14 cases with biopsy Gleason 6-10 score, respectively. The clinical stage : 90 cases in ≤T 2b, 273 cases in T 2c, and 195 cases in ≥T 3 . 558 cases underwent radical prostatectomy, including 528 robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery, 25 laparoscopic surgery, and 5 open-surgery. The risk factors for postoperative biochemical recurrence were analyzed by Cox regression. Results:A total of 63 patients had postoperative pathological stage pT 2a, 32 patients had pT 2b, 241 patients had pT 2c, and 222 patients had ≥pT 3. A total of 210 cases developed biochemical recurrence after surgery, and the mean time to biochemical recurrence was 33.3 (3-127) months after the radical prostatectomy. The biochemical recurrence rates at 1, 3, and 5 years were 9.7% (54/558), 21.5% (120/558), and 31.7% (177/558), respectively. Among pT 2a and pT 2b patients, 7 (11.1%) and 4 (12.5%) cases developed biochemical recurrence, respectively. Among pT 2c stage patients, 145 (60.17%) cases had positive cut margins, treated with androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) after surgery. 68 (28.21%) cases of pT 2c stage patients had biochemical recurrence at mean 36.1 (3-106)months after the radical prostatectomy. Among ≥pT 3 patients, 147 patients with positive margins, perineural invasion, seminal vesicle invasion and positive pelvic lymph nodes were treated with postoperative androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) + radiotherapy. 98 of 147 patients (66.67%) had biochemical recurrence, and the average time to biochemical recurrence was 30.6 (24-98) months.75 patients of ≥pT 3 without positive margins, perineural invasion, seminal vesicle invasion or positive pelvic lymph nodes, were treated with postoperative ADT. 33 of them (44%) had biochemical recurrence, and the average time to biochemical recurrence was 32.5 (21-106) months. 5-and 10-year survival rates of 210 patients with biochemical recurrence were 89.05% (187/210) and 78.09% (164/210) respectively, 5- and 10-year tumor-specific survival rates were 92.57% and 87.69%, respectively. 46 of 210 cases died, of which 31 (67.39%) died from prostate cancer, and 15 cases (32.61%) died from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Multifactorial Cox regression analysis showed that patient's age ≥70 years, initial PSA > 20ng/ml, ≥pT 3 and Gleason score ≥7 were independent risk factors for biochemical recurrence. Conclusions:After radical prostatectomy, patients were treated according to their pathological stage and surgical margins. Patients with positive margins have a higher risk of biochemical recurrence. The independent risk factors for biochemical recurrence included age ≥70 years, initial PSA > 20ng/ml, ≥pT 3 and Gleason score ≥7.

Objective:To compare the safety of adrenal central vein treated at different times in laparoscopic adrenal pheochromocytoma resection through abdominal approach.Methods:A study was conducted on 43 patients with adrenal pheochromocytoma admitted to Xijing Hospital, Air Force Military Medical University from June 2012 to June 2019. The included patients were divided into two groups according to the surgical method: observation group ( n=22) and control group ( n=21). The patients of observation group were ligated the central advenal vein before the tumor was completely isolated, and the patients of control group were ligated the central advenal vein after the tumor was isolated. The changes of blood catecholamine levels before anesthesia, before central adrenal vein ligation, and after tumor resection were compared between the two groups, as well as the differences in operative time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, number of cases with intraoperative blood pressure fluctuations and frequency. Measurement data were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( Mean± SD), comparison between groups was by t-test; comparison of count data between groups was by Chi-square. Results:There was no significant difference in the mean operation time, the mean hospital stay, intraoperative blood loss, number of cases with dramatic blood pressure fluctuations between two groups ( P>0.05). The frequency of severe fluctuation of intraoperative blood pressure in observation group and control group was 19 times and 47 times, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the blood epinephrine and norepinephrine levels between the two groups before anesthesia and after tumor resection ( P>0.05). However, before ligation of the central vein, the epinephrine concentrations in the observation group and the control group were (572.1±282.1) pg/mL and (935.6±417.5) pg/mL, respectively, the noradrenaline concentrations were (8 347.9±4 103.6) pg/mL and (13 695.7 ±3 205.3) pg/mL, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Early ligation of the adrenal central vein can improve the safety of the laparoscopic approach to adrenal pheochromocytoma.

Objective:To construct an effective survival nomogram for patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) using a large sample sized Chinese dataset, which can be used to predict individual 3- and 5-year overall survival (OS) precisely.Methods:The data of 672 ccRCC patients received operation diagnosed at Xijing Hospital from January 2012 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 467 males and 205 females. Their median age was 56 years old (ranging 23-83 years old). There were 327 patients with tumor on the left kidney and 345 patients with tumor on the right kidney. Clinical stageⅠ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ were 584, 47, 19 and 22 cases, respectively. At the time of diagnosis, 504 patients were asymptomatic and 168 patients were symptomatic. Preoperative alkaline phosphatase was 80 (41-240) U/L. Preoperative serum albumin was 44.8 (30.5-59.8) g/L. Preoperative neutrophil absolute value/lymphocyte absolute value (NLR) was 2.25 (0.81-9.89). Preoperative platelet count was 205 (82-589)×10 9/L. Preoperative creatinine was 97 (55-230) μmol/L. Radical nephrectomy was performed in 420 (62.5%) patients and partial nephrectomy was performed in 252 patients. Cox multivariate analysis was used to determine the independent predictors of the postoperative OS. Then, the nomogram was constructed using R software, which integrates all independent predictors according to the coefficients in the multivariate analysis. Moreover, the performance of the nomogram was evaluated using the consistency index (C-index) and the calibration plots. Results:Cox multivariate analysis results showed that age at diagnosis ( P<0.001), clinical TNM stage ( P<0.001), preoperative NLR ( P=0.012), preoperative alkaline phosphatase ( P=0.002) and preoperative albumin ( P<0.001) were the independent predictors of postoperative OS in ccRCC patients. The nomogram established by integrating these five factors had a good discriminatory ability (C-index=0.819, 95% CI 0.813-0.825), and the calibration plots showed that excellent agreements between the nomogram prediction and the actual observation were achieved. Conclusions:Based on a large sample sized Chinese dataset, this study established an effective survival model for patients with ccRCC and good performance of the nomogram was demonstrated by internal validation. Our nomogram can help urologists to predict individual 3- and 5-year OS accurately for Chinese ccRCC patients.

Objective: To investigate the independent predictors of inguinal lymph node metastasis (LLM) in patients with penile squamous cell carcinoma (SCCP), and to establish a nomogram for predicting individual LLM risk. Methods: The data of patients with SCCP diagnosed at the department of urology, Xijing Hospital from July 2009 to June 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. A total of 101 patients were included in this study, with age of 55 (26-84) years. There were 25 (24.8%) and 76 (75.2%) patients with and without palpable inguinal lymph node enlargement, respectively. There were 47 cases (46.5%), 40 cases (39.6%) and 14 cases (13.9%) in T₁, T₂ and T₃ stages, respectively; there were 67 cases (66.3%), 21 cases (20.8%) and 13 cases (12.9%) in Broder 1, 2 and 3, respectively. The average value (or median) of fibrinogen was 2.84 (1.72-5.00)g/L; alkaline phosphatase was 80(32±214)U, hemoglobin was 147(81-180)g, platelet count was (193.74±65.68×10⁹/L, absolute value of neutrophils, monocytes and lymphocytes were 3.98(1.19-11.85)×10⁹/L, 0.44(0.17-1.90)×10⁹/L and 1.68(0.58-4.13)×10⁹/L, respectively. The average (or median) value of PLR, NLR and LMR were 113.38(18.80-418.42), 2.42(0.59-10.22) and 3.84 (1.08-9.89), respectively. There were 26 cases (25.7%) with LLM and 75 cases (74.3%) without LLM. The independent predictors of LLM were identified by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. The R software was used to establish the nomogram by integrating all independent predictors, and the bootstrap method was used to internally validated our nomogram, where the value of AUC (area under the ROC curve) was calculated and the calibration plot was drawn. Results: Clinical inguinal lymph node status (P<0.006), T stage (P<0.021), Broder grade (P<0.017) and absolute neutrophil value (P<0.043) were independent predictors of LLM. The accuracy of our nomogram was 0.875 (AUC=0.875, 95%CI 0.859-0.891); Moreover, the risk of LLM predicted by nomogram was in good consistency with the actual LLM rate, and the errors of the nomogram-predicted LLM risks were all within 10%. Conclusions Clinical inguinal lymph node status, T stage, broder grade and absolute value of neutrophils were identified as independent predictors of LLM in patients with SCCP on the basis of single center data. A generic nomogram predicting LLM risk for Chinese patients was developed, which would be helpful to screen SCCP patients who need prophylactic inguinal lymph node dissection.

Objective: To explore the independent predictors for disease-specific survival (DSS) rate in patients with stage N_1-3 testicular seminoma (TS), and establish a nomogram to predict individual 5-year DSS. Methods: The data of N_1-3 TS patients registered in the SEER database of National Cancer Institute (USA) from January 2004 to December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate and DSS rate were calculated using Kaplan-Meier method and the differences among different subgroups were assessed using log-rank test. Besides, the independent predictors of DSS were defined using multivariate Cox regression analysis, and nomogram was drawn using R software. Furthermore, the predictive performance of the nomogram was internally validated using the C-index and calibration plot. Results: TNM stage ⅢA (HR=5.604, 95%CI: 1.252-25.083, P=0.024), ⅢB (HR=6.710, 95%CI: 1.923-23.410, P=0.003) and ⅢC (HR=13.189, 95%CI: 3.916-44.420, P<0.001), age at diagnosis ≥45 years old (HR=3.575, 95%CI: 2.014-6.344, P<0.001), and patients without spouse (HR=2.346, 95%CI: 1.406-3.914, P=0.001) were identified as independent risk factors for DSS. On internal validation, the predictive accuracy of our nomogram was 0.751 (C-index: 0.751, 95%CI: 0.694-0.808). Besides, the calibration plot showed that the predicted survival outcomes were highly consistent with the actual survival outcomes. Conclusion The study confirms that age at diagnosis ≥45 years old, TNM stage ≥ⅢA and patients without spouse are the independent risk factors for DSS in TS patients with stage N_1-3, and the nomogram for predicting individual 5-year DSS is established.

Objective: To explore the independent predictors for recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC), and establish a nomogram to predict individual 2-year RFS. Methods: The data of patients diagnosed in Xijing Hospital of the Air Force Medical University from June 2009 to May 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 71 patients with primary T_1-4N₀M₀ unilateral tumor were included in this study. The median age was 54 (range from 25 to 83) years. There were 51 males and 20 females. There were 27 cases of typeⅠ, 44 cases of type Ⅱ, 36 cases of left tumor and 35 cases of right tumor. Patients with clinical Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ stage were 47 cases, 12 cases, 9 cases and 3 cases, respectively. Tumor necrosis occurred in 15 cases (21.1%). The average preoperative alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was 89.0(43.0-217.0) U/L, the average preoperative hemoglobin (Hb) was (132.5±19.9) g/L, with 20 cases (28.2%) of Hb<120 g/L before surgery; the average of preoperative Hb was (132.5±19.9) g/L, among which 20 cases (28.2%) had Hb<120 g/L before surgery; the average of preoperative neutrophils/lymphocytes (NLR) was 2.40 (1.03-6.77); radical nephrectomy was performed in 43 patients and nephrectomy was performed in 28 patients. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year RFS were calculated using Kaplan-Meier method and the differences among different subgroups were assessed using Log-rank test. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis were used to identify the independent predictors for RFS, and the nomogram was developed using R software according to the results of multivariate Cox regression analysis. Furthermore, the predictive ability of the nomogram was internally validated using the Bootstrap method by calculating the C-index and drawing the calibration plot. Results: After a median follow-up of 41 ( range from 25 to 83) months, 16 (22.5%) recurrence occurred, including 4 local recurrence and 12 distant recurrence, and 11 (68.8%) patients relapsed within 2 years after surgery. The 1, 2, and 3-year RFS were 88.6%, 80.4%, and 78.7%, respectively. Clinical stage Ⅱ (HR=3.655, 95%CI 1.036-12.890, P=0.044) and stage ≥Ⅲ(HR=3.654, 95%CI 1.008-13.248, P=0.049), preoperative ALP≥90U/L(HR=3.274, 95%CI 1.044-10.267, P=0.042), preoperative Hb<120 g/L (HR=4.771, 95%CI 1.553-14.660, P=0.006), and preoperative NLR≥2.40(HR=4.701, 95%CI 1.238-17.849, P=0.023) were identified as independent risk factors for RFS. On internal validation, the nomogram which integrates the four predictors of clinical stage, preoperative ALP, preoperative HB and preoperative NLR, has a good predictive performance (C-index =0.829, 95%CI 0.819-0.839). Conclusions In the present study based on single center data, clinical stage Ⅱ and ≥Ⅲ, preoperative ALP≥90 U/L, preoperative Hb<120 g/L and preoperative NLR ≥2.40 were independent predictors for postoperative RFS in patients with PRCC, and a new preoperative nomogram for predicting individual postoperative 2-year RFS was established, which would be helpful for urologists to develop more systematic treatment plans.

Objective To investigate the effect of subclinical epileptiform discharges (SED) on the cognition of adult patients with epilepsy,exploring the mechanism of SED that leads to cognitive impairment in adult patients with epilepsy to raise physicians' attention about SED.Methods Patients were collected in the Department of Neurology,China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University from March 2016 to March 2017.Sixty adult patients with epilepsy without clinical episodes in the last three months were selected as SED group and 40 healthy volunteers as control group.Medical history of the SED group was recorded in detail.All patients were examined by Self-rating Anxiety Scale,Self-rating Depression Scale,Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index scale in order to exclude organic brain disorders,metabolic diseases,anxiety,depression,sleep disorders and drug-induced cognitive dysfunction.Subjects in the two groups received Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA),electroencephalogram and blood oxygen level dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging examination.Finally,the results were compared between the two groups.Results ①SED had different effects on cognitive function in adult patients with epilepsy,and the MoCA score (26(22,27)) showed statistically significant difference compared with the control group (29 (28,29),Z =-6.26,P =0.00).②Different discharges indexes showed different effects on cognitive function aspects.Cognitive impairment was significant when the discharges indexes were ＞ 10％ (discharges indexes 1％-10％:MoCA score 26(26,28),discharges indexes 10％-50％:MoCA score 22(19.5,25),Z =-4.74,P =0.00).③The cognitive function of epilepsy patients was positively correlated with the duration of education (r =0.41,P =0.00) and the time interval to recent seizure (r =0.31,P =0.02),and negatively correlated with SED (r =-0.57,P=0.17).There was no correlation between cognitive function and duration of disease and onset age.The SED was the main influencing factor of cognitive function in epilepsy.④Compared with healthy people,epilepsy patients with SED showed differences in resting brain function network connection,with strong connective regions at the right inferior temporal gyrus,right hippocampus,bilateral thalamus,with weak connective regions at the double medial upper frontal gyrus,lateral dorsal frontal gyurs.Conclusions SED had an effect on the cognitive function of adult patients with epilepsy.The mechanism of cognitive impairment in adult epilepsy with SED may be related to abnormal brain function in cognitive-related areas.
