ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Yueju Wan on the 5-hydroxytryptamine （5-HT） signaling pathway in rats with functional dyspepsia （FD） and to explore its therapeutic mechanism in the treatment of FD. MethodsSixty Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly divided into a normal group， model group， mosapride group （1.575 mg·kg^-1）， and Yueju Wan low-， medium-， and high-dose groups （0.735， 1.47， and 2.94 g·kg^-1， respectively）. The FD rat model was established using GUO's tail-clamping stimulation combined with irregular feeding. After 14 days of modeling， rats were administered the corresponding drugs by gavage for 28 days. After treatment， gastric emptying rate and small intestinal propulsion rate were measured. Serum levels of 5-HT， tryptophan hydroxylase （TPH）， and substance P （SP） were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）， and acetylcholine （ACh） levels were determined by chemical methods. Histopathological changes in the gastric antrum were observed using hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot were used to assess the mRNA and protein expression levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine 4 receptor （5-HT4R）， SP， and acetylcholinesterase （AChE） in colon tissue， as well as 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 receptor （5-HT3R）， SP， and AChE in hypothalamic tissue. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was used to examine the expression of 5-HT and 5-HT4R in the colon and 5-HT and 5-HT3R in the hypothalamus. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the gastric emptying rate and small intestinal propulsion rate in the model group were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Serum levels of 5-HT， SP， ACh， and TPH were significantly reduced （P<0.01）. Histopathological examination revealed irregular arrangement of glands in the gastric antrum， slight mucosal atrophy， and mild inflammatory cell infiltration. The mRNA and protein expression levels of 5-HT4R， SP， and AChE in colon tissue， as well as 5-HT3R， SP， and AChE in hypothalamic tissue， were significantly decreased （P<0.01）， and 5-HT protein expression in both the colon and hypothalamus was also significantly reduced （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， all Yueju Wan groups showed significantly increased gastric emptying rate and small intestinal propulsion rate （P<0.01）. The glands in the gastric antrum were more regularly arranged， with no inflammatory cell infiltration observed. Serum levels of 5-HT， SP， ACh， and TPH were significantly increased （P<0.01）. The mRNA and protein expression levels of 5-HT4R， SP， and AChE in colon tissue and 5-HT3R， SP， and AChE in hypothalamic tissue were significantly upregulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and 5-HT protein expression in both the colon and hypothalamus was significantly increased （P<0.01）. ConclusionYueju Wan has preventive and therapeutic effects on FD， and its mechanism may be related to regulation of the 5-HT signaling pathway， promotion of brain-gut peptide secretion， and enhancement of gastric motility.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of the medical-community linkage model on activities of daily living, psychological status and motor function of stroke patients in the community. MethodsA total of 60 stroke patients admitted to two community health service centers and their affiliated stations in Fengtai District, Beijing, from January, 2024 to August, 2025 were enrolled and randomly divided into control group (n = 30) and intervention group (n = 30). The control group received routine medicine, dietary care and rehabilitation management, while the intervention group underwent rehabilitation with the medical-community linkage model, for twelve weeks. They were assessed with modified Barthel Index (MBI), Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) and Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) before and after intervention. ResultsAfter intervention, the MBI, HAMA, HAMD and FMA scores of patients improved in both groups (|t| > 5.599, P < 0.001), and improved more in the intervention group than in the control group (P < 0.05), except MBI. The HAMA and HAMD scores of family members decreased in both groups (|t| > 10.333, P < 0.001), and decreased more in the intervention group than in the control group (t > 5.681, P < 0.001). ConclusionThe medical-community linkage model can further improve the motor function of stroke patients in community, as well as the psychological status of both patients and their family members.

AIM: To investigate timing of glucocorticoids use in the treatment of syphilitic uveitis.METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted in 110 patients(134 eyes)with syphilitic uveitis diagnosed from January 2008 to January 2021, of whom 24 were binocular. The time from onset to treatment was 1 d to 3 mo. They were divided into three groups according to the treatment, including 98 eyes with completed clearely fundus lesions and no abnormalities in fundus fluorescein angiography(FFA)+ indocyanine green angiography(ICGA)+ optical coherence tomography(OCT)after treated with antibiotics alone for 1 to 2 wk in single antibiotics group, 26 eyes with in completely cleared fundus lesions and retinal vessels wall staining observed by FFA or choroidal weak fluorescence observed by ICGA after standard antisyphilitic treatments for 1 to 2 wk in first antibiotics followed by hormones group, and 10 eyes treated according to uveitis at other hospital in the absence of a clear cause of disease, that was intravenously dripped with 250 mL of normal saline and 10 mg of dexamethasone once a day for 7 to 10 d in total, then clearly diagnosed as syphilitic uveitis by Treponema pallidum particle agglutination(TPPA)test after receiving treatment for 10 to 14 d in hormones followed by antibiotics group. The best corrected visual acuity, slit-lamp examination, fundus photography, OCT, FFA, ICGA and prognosis of the three groups of patients were compared.RESULTS: There were statistically significant difference in the best corrected visual acuity, optic disc, retinal vasculitis, choroidal weak fluorescence, and RPR titer before and after treatment of the three groups of patients. The prognosis of the hormones followed by antibiotics group was lower than that in the single antibiotics group and antibiotics followed by hormones group, and the proportion of “good” prognosis in the antibiotics followed by hormones group was larger than that in other groups.CONCLUSION: Early diagnosis and regular treatment of syphilitic uveitis has a good overall prognosis, and giving large doses of glucocorticoids before thorough antisyphilitic treatments is not conducive to the recovery of disease. In patients with residual lesions after standard antisyphilitic, the application of small doses of glucocorticoids is helpful for the recovery of the disease.

Objective:To examine the interaction between interpersonal issues and eating behavior problems among college freshmen, and to identify core psychological factors and potential pathways that drive eating behavior.Methods:In October 2019, a total of 5 073 college freshmen from a university in Shanghai were recruited as participants. Their general demographic data were collected, and they were evaluated using the eating disorder examination questionnaire 6.0 (EDE-Q 6.0) and inventory of interpersonal problems-32(IIP-32).Descriptive analyses were performed using SPSS 24.0 software.A regularized partial correlation network was constructed using the graphical least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (GLASSO) in R(v4.2.3) software. A Bayesian network analysis (BNA) was conducted to build a directed network, aiming to identify core driving factors and key psychological mechanisms.Results:Regularized partial correlation network identified shape concern as the most central node, with the highest strength centrality(1.32) and expected influence(1.20). It showed the highest bridge strength with dominance/control (0.22, 0.21), linking the interpersonal and eating behavior modules. Directed network analysis indicated that low self-confidence was the upstream node influencing social inhibition and cold/ distant relationships, indirectly affecting eating disorder.Within the eating module, shape concern and weight concern predicted eating preoccupation and dietary restraint, forming a pathway structure from eating cognition to behavior.The network demonstrated good stability (CS-coefficient=0.75).Conclusion:Shape concern is the core mechanism underlying eating problems in college freshmen. Low self-confidence contributes indirectly via interpersonal dysfunction. Dominance/control and shape concern bridge interpersonal and eating domains, providing key targets for early prevention and intervention.

Objective To investigate the rehabilitative effects of pelvic floor muscle training(PFMT)combined with electromyography biofeedback(EMG-BF)in patients with post-prostatectomy incontinence(PPI),aims to provide refer-ence for clinical nursing practice.Methods 98 patients with PPI who were treated at the urinary incontinence nurse-led clinic of a tertiary hospital in Shanghai were included using the method of convenience sampling.Patients enrolled from June to September 2022 were assigned to a control group(n=49),receiving PFMT alone at home.Those enrolled from November 2022 to February 2023 were assigned to an experimental group(n=49),receiving PFMT at home combined with EMG-BF at the nurse-led clinic.Both groups received intervention for 3 months,preceded by guidance for PFMT provided by incontinence specialist nurses.The urine leakage in 24-hour pad test,the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form(ICIQ-SF),the Incontinence Quality of Life Questionnaires(I-QOL),and the Broome Pelvic Muscle Self-Efficacy Scale(BPMSES)were used to assess objective and subjective incontinence severity,quality of life,and self-efficacy of PFMT on the day of catheter removal and at 1,2,and 3 months post-intervention.Results A total of 46 patients were included in each group.The 24-hour urine leakage volume and I-QOL scores demonstrated significant between-group and over-time effects(P＜0.05),with no interaction effect between groups and time(P＞0.05)The ICIQ-SF and BPMSES scores exhibited interactive ef-fects between time and groups(P＜0.05).At 2 and 3 months post-intervention,the intervention group showed signifi-cantly lower ICIQ-SF scores(P＜0.001),and higher BPMSES scores(P＜0.05),compared to those in the control group.Conclusion PFMT combined with EMG-BF can effectively alleviate the objective and subjective severity of PPI,enhance patients'self-efficacy in PFMT,and improve their postoperative quality of life.

BACKGROUND:Intertrochanteric fractures of the femur are particularly common in elderly and osteoporosis patients,and treatment often requires internal fixation surgery to stabilize the fracture and promote healing. However,internal fixation surgery may occasionally fail,leading to serious problems such as nonunion of fractures,malunion,or re-fracture.OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of artificial total hip arthroplasty on postoperative failure of internal fixation for intertrochanteric fractures of the femur and the influencing factors of postoperative occult blood loss.METHODS:Totally 86 patients with failed internal fixation of intertrochanteric fractures of the femur who were treated in First People's Hospital of Yangquan City from May 2019 to September 2022 and had complete follow-up data were collected. Using artificial total hip arthroplasty for treatment,relevant clinical indicators of the patient were recorded,and Harris score,visual analog scale score,and SF-36 score were compared and analyzed before and after surgery. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted on the factors affecting occult blood loss after total hip arthroplasty. Logistic regression models and neural network models were established to predict occult blood loss. The predictive performance and accuracy of the two models were compared by drawing receiver operating characteristic curves.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Totally 86 patients with intertrochanteric fractures of the femur were successfully treated with artificial total hip arthroplasty after internal fixation failure. (2) There were statistically significant differences in Harris score,visual analog scale score,SF-36 score,and hip active range of motion between patients before and 3,6,and 12 months after surgery (P<0.05). (3) The age,hypertension ratio,diabetes ratio,osteoporosis ratio,operation time,total blood loss,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative drainage volume,and hemoglobin decrease in the high occult blood loss group were significantly higher than those in the low occult blood loss group (P<0.05). The proportion of bone cement type prostheses,anterior approach,and 2-3 grade hip jointspace in the low occult blood loss group were higher than those in the high occult blood loss group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of gender ratio,body mass index,proportion of chronic bronchitis,proportion of sides,anesthesia method,and acetabular cup diameter (P>0.05). (4) Through multivariate logistic regression analysis,age,diabetes,osteoporosis,prosthesis type,surgical approach,hip joint space,total blood loss,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative drainage volume,and hemoglobin decrease were the risk factors for high occult blood loss after total hip arthroplasty (P<0.05). (5) After incorporating influencing factors into the logistic regression model and neural network model for predicting occult blood loss,the receiver operating characteristic curves of the two models were plotted with area under curve values of 0.882 and 0.923,sensitivity values of 0.879 and 0.886,specificity values of 0.854 and 0.908,Youden index values of 0.733 and 0.794,and accuracy values of 0.867 and 0.897,respectively. The area under curve,Youden index,and accuracy of both models were higher than those of neural network models. (6) It is concluded that total hip arthroplasty has a significant clinical effect on treating postoperative failure of internal fixation for intertrochanteric fractures of the femur,with good recovery of hip joint range of motion. Age,diabetes,osteoporosis,prosthesis type,surgical approach,hip joint space,total blood loss,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative drainage volume,and hemoglobin decrease are important factors for the high risk of occult blood loss after total hip arthroplasty. Logistic regression model and neural network model based on risk factors have little difference in the prediction results of occult blood loss,and neural network model is higher.

Recent studies have revealed a significant association between Porphyromonas gingivalis(P.gingivalis)infection and poor prognosis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC).Although cer-tain circular RNAs(circRNA)have been shown to suppress ESCC tumorigenesis and progression,their regulatory mechanisms in P.gingivalis infection-associated ESCC remain elusive.In this study,RT-qPCR analysis demonstrated that P.gingivalis infection downregulated hsa_circ_0057552 expression in ESCC cells and tissues in a time-and dose-dependent manner.Actinomycin D assays further confirmed that P.gingivalis infection reduced the RNA stability of hsa_circ_0057552 in ESCC cells(P＜0.05).Functional assays in vitro and a subcutaneous tumor xenograft model in vivo revealed that hsa_circ_0057552 overexpression significantly inhibited ESCC cell proliferation,migration,invasion,and tumor growth(P＜0.05).Additionally,PCR array screening combined with RT-qPCR and Western blotting in-dicated that P.gingivalis infection markedly upregulated human antigen R(HuR)expression at both RNA and protein levels(P＜0.05).Mechanistic investigations demonstrated that HuR knockdown signifi-cantly increased hsa_circ_0057552 expression(P＜0.01),whereas hsa_circ_0057552 overexpression had no regulatory effect on HuR.Finally,si-HuR treatment reversed the inhibitory effect of P.gingivalis on hsa_circ_0057552 transcription.This study demonstrated that P.gingivalis may promote the progression of ESCC through a novel mechanism involving the regulation of HuR/hsa_circ_0057552,thereby identif-ying a novel therapeutic target and molecular marker for P.gingivalis-associated ESCC.

Purpose To investigate the clinical features of gastrointestinal leiomyomas(GLs)with scattered ex-pression of CD117 and DOG1,and to evaluate their biological behavior as well as their different diagnositic value from gastrointestinal stromal tumors(GISTs).Methods Clinical data from 17 cases of surgically resected GLs were col-lected.Immunohistochemistry using the EnVision method was performed to detect SMA,desmin,h-caldesmon,DOG1,CD117,and CD34.First-generation sequencing was performed to analyze exons 9-20 of the KIT gene and ex-ons 12 and 18 of the PDGFRA gene.Results Tumors occured in the stomach(8 cases)and esophagus(9 cases).Clinical manifestations included dull upper abdominal pain,dysphagia,chest pain,and fever.During a follow-up peri-od of 58-88 months,no recurrence was observed,and all patients had a favorable prognosis.Histologically,tumor cells were spindle-shaped and arranged in bundles or a woven pattern.Interstitial cells of Cajal appeared spindle-shaped or stellate with indistinct borders and dispersed chromatin.Tumor cells showed diffuse positivity for SMA,desmin,and h-caldesmon(100％).Interstitial cells of Cajal exhibited focal positive for CD117 and DOG1,with an o-verall positive rate of 9％for each marker.No pathogenic mutations of the KIT or PDGFRA genes were detected by first-generation sequencing.Conclusion Although some GLs contained interstitial cells of Cajal that showed focal pos-itivity for CD117 and DOG1,sequencing and long-term follow-up confirmed that their biological behavior differed from that of GISTs,with no malignant potential.Surgical resection remained the mainstay of treatment,and the prognosis was favorable.

Objective To investigate the effect of subanesthetic dose of esketamine on emergence agitation(EA)in patients undergoing laparoscopic hernia repair.Methods Seventy-two male patients who treated with lapa-roscopic hernia repair under general anesthesia were randomly divided into AS group(subanesthetic esketamine)and control group.In the AS group,0.2 mg/kg of esketamine was administered intravenously 30 minutes before the surgery ended,while the control group was given an equal volume of normal saline.Upon surgery completion,patients were transferred to PACU with endotracheal tube retained,and the time to extubation was recorded.Hemo-dynamic parameters were measured immediately after extubation and at 10 min,30 min,1 h,and 4 h thereafter.Patients' pain and sedation levels were assessed at the above time points using RASS and VAS,respectively.The incidence of EA was evaluated using the Confusion Assessment Method for the Intensive Care Unit(CAM-ICU).Observation duration in the PACU and recovery outcomes within 24 hours postoperatively were assessed via the QoR-40 and adverse events were recorded.Results Compared to those in the control group,patients in the AS group had higher HR and MAP at 10 min post-extubation,and the changes in HR and MAP over time were more stable(P<0.05).The RASS and VAS scores in the AS group were significantly lower than those in the control group at the time of extubation and all subsequent time points(P<0.05),both groups showed temporal changes in RASS and VAS scores(P<0.05),but the change process in the AS group was more stable(P<0.05).Postoperative extubation time,PACU observation duration,and adverse event rates(delirium,respiratory depression,nausea and vomiting)did not differ significantly between the two groups(P>0.05),while recovery quality was markedly better in the AS group(P<0.05).Conclusion Subanesthetic esketamine effectively alleviates pain and the incidence of EA,supports hemodynamic stability during PACU stay,and enhances recovery quality in patients undergoing laparo-scopic hernia repair,demonstrating clinical value.
