Objective: To explore the changes of mechanosensitive channels Piezos (Piezo 1 and Piezo 2) in neurogenic bladder (NB) of young rats and their effects，so as to provide reference for clinical search of new therapeutic targets. Methods: A total of 30 female young SD rats were divided into 5 groups based on random number table method：sham operation group (sham)，2-week nerve transection group (NB-2W)，6-week nerve transection group (NB-6W)，2-week nerve transection + Piezos inhibitor group (NB-P-2W) and 6-week nerve transection + Piezos inhibitor group (NB-P-6W)，with 6 rats in each group.The NB models were constructed by transecting the L6 and S1 spinal nerves of young rats.The NB-2W and NB-6W groups were not intervened after modeling，while the NB-P-2W and NB-P-6W groups were intraperitoneally injected with Piezos inhibitor GsMTx4 (10 mg/kg) every 2 days after modeling.Bladder cystometry and ultrasound were performed after 2 and 6 weeks of transection.The expressions of Piezos and fibrosis-related indexes (Collagen Ⅰ and α-smooth muscle actin) were detected in bladder tissues. Results: The results of bladder cystometry showed that the basal bladder pressure in NB-2W group was significantly increased，while it was slightly decreased but was still higher in NB-6W group than in the sham group (P<0.05).Basal bladder pressure was lower in NB-P-2W group than in NB-2W group，but was higher than that in the sham group; basal bladder pressure was lower in NB-P-6W group than in NB-6W group，but higher than that in the sham group (P<0.05).Compared with the sham group，the NB-2W and NB-6W groups had firstly increased and then decreased maximum cystometric capacity (MCC) (P<0.05).Compared with NB-2W group，NB-P-2W group had lower bladder leakage point pressure (BLPP)，but higher MCC and bladder compliance (BC) (P<0.05).Compared with NB-6W group，NB-P-6W group had significantly lower BLPP but higher MCC and BC (P<0.05).HE and MASSON staining and ultrasound results showed that，with the extension of nerve transection time，bladder fibrosis gradually worsened，the bladder wall became rough and thickened，calculi were visible inside，and hydronephrosis gradually appeared; the degree of fibrosis in NB-P-2W and NB-P-6W groups was less than that in NB-2W and NB-6W groups，and no hydronephrosis was observed in the upper urinary tract.In addition，Western blotting and immunohistochemical results showed that NB-2W and NB-6W groups had significantly higher relative expression levels of Piezos，Collagen Ⅰ and α-SMA than the sham group (P<0.01)，while NB-P-2W and NB-P-6W groups had lower relative expression levels of Piezos,Collagen Ⅰ and α-SMA than NB-2W and NB-6W groups (P<0.01). Conclusion: The increased expressions of mechanosensitive channels Piezos in NB young rats may be involved in the progression of bladder fibrosis，but its mechanism needs further study.

Objective: To investigate the influencing factors of overactive bladder (OAB) in college freshmen and the impacts of OAB on their mental health, quality of life and social interaction. Methods: An epidemiological questionnaire survey was conducted in an anonymous manner on the prevalence of OAB among 5300 freshmen aged 17 to 22 years enrolled in the 2023—2024 academic year in Xinxiang Medical University and Sanquan College of Xinxiang Medical University.The questionnaire included questions on basic information, history of urinary tract infection, constipation, smoking, history of alcohol consumption, history of coffee/strong tea drinking, history of carbonated beverage drinking, redundant prepuce, phimosis, holding urine, chronic insomnia, self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), quality of life score (QoL), and social avoidance and distress scale (SADS).The influencing factors of OAB were analyzed with multivariate logistic regression analysis.The subjects were grouped according to whether they had OAB, and the differences in SAS, QoL and SADS between the OAB group and non-OAB group were compared.The impacts of OAB on the anxiety level, quality of life, and social interaction were analyzed with multiple linear regression analysis. Results: The overall prevalence rate of OAB was 4.9% (244/5018).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the history of urinary tract infection (OR=0.177), constipation (OR=0.636), smoking (OR=0.582), alcohol consumption (OR=0.685), coffee/strong tea drinking (OR=0.387), carbonated beverage drinking (OR=0.631), redundant prepuce (OR=0.673), phimosis (OR=0.311), urine holding (OR=0.593), and chronic insomnia (OR=0.256) were influencing factors for the occurrence of OAB (P＜0.05).The OAB group had higher SAS score [(41.18±6.54) vs. (38.61±6.36)], QoL score [(3.65±1.20) vs. (2.79±0.95)], social avoidance score [(6.25±1.86) vs. (5.86±1.51)], social distress score [(6.27±1.59) vs. (5.97±1.32)], and total SADS score [(12.51±2.35) vs. (11.84±2.01)] than the non-OAB group (P＜0.05).The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that OAB could independently affect the scores of QoL, SAS, and SADS.The OAB group had higher scores of QoL, SAS, and SADS compared with the non-OAB group (P＜0.001). Conclusion: History of urinary tract infection, constipation, smoking, alcohol consumption, coffee/strong tea drinking, carbonated beverage drinking, redundant prepuce, phimosis, urine holding, and chronic insomnia are influencing factors for the occurrence of OAB in male college students.Moreover, OAB has negative impacts on their mental health, quality of life, and social interaction.

Objective To explore the clinical value of artificial intelligence (AI) quantitative parameters in distinguishing pathological grades of stageⅠ invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC). Methods Clinical data of patients with clinical stageⅠ IAC admitted to Yantaishan Hospital Affiliated to Binzhou Medical University from October 2018 to May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Based on the 2021 WHO pathological grading criteria for lung adenocarcinoma, IAC was divided into gradeⅠ, grade Ⅱ, and grade Ⅲ. The differences in parameters among the groups were compared, and logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the predictive efficacy of AI quantitative parameters for grade Ⅲ IAC patients. Parameters were screened using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis. Three machine learning models were constructed based on these parameters to predict grade Ⅲ IAC and were internally validated to assess their efficacy. Nomograms were used for visualization. Results A total of 261 IAC patients were included, including 101 males and 160 females, with an average age of 27-88 (61.96±9.17) years. Six patients had dual primary lesions, and different lesions from the same patient were analyzed as independent samples. There were 48 patients of gradeⅠ IAC, 89 patients of grade Ⅱ IAC, and 130 patients of grade Ⅲ IAC. There were statitical differences in the AI quantitive parameters such as consolidation/tumor ratio (CTR), ect among the three goups. (P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that the differences in all variables except age were statistically significant (P<0.05) between the group gradeⅠ+grade Ⅱand the group grade Ⅲ . Multivariate analysis suggested that CTR and CT standard deviation were independent risk factors for identifying grade Ⅲ IAC, and the two were negatively correlated. Grade Ⅲ IAC exhibited advanced TNM staging, more pathological high-risk factors, higher lymph node metastasis rate, and higher proportion of advanced structure. CTR was positively correlated with the proportion of advanced structures in all patients. This correlation was also observed in grade Ⅲ but not in gradeⅠand grade ⅡIAC. CTR and CT median value were selected by using LASSO regression. Logistic regression, random forest, and XGBoost models were constructed and validated, among which, the XGBoost model demonstrated the best predictive performance. Conclusion Cautious consideration should be given to grade Ⅲ IAC when CTR is higher than 39.48% and CT standard deviation is less than 122.75 HU. The XGBoost model based on combined CTR and CT median value has good predictive efficacy for grade Ⅲ IAC, aiding clinicians in making personalized clinical decisions.

Objective:To investigate the effect and mechanism of the V-set and immunoglobulin domain-containing 4 ( VSIG4 ) gene mutation on the function of microglia in retinitis pigmentosa (RP). Methods:Localization of VSIG4 in the retina was detected by immunofluorescence.HMC3 cells (human microglial cells) were transfected with wild-type (Len-WT) VSIG4 gene, mutant type (Len-Mut) VSIG4 gene and empty vector virus (Len-Cont) and stimulated by the presence or absence of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), then divided into control group, LPS-Len-Mut group, LPS-Len-WT group, LPS-Len-Cont group, Len-Mut group, Len-WT group and Len-Cont group.The mRNA expression levels of the inflammatory factors interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.Protein expression levels of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1), glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), nuclear transcription factor-κB (NF-κB) p65 subunit (P65), and phosphorylated P65 (PP65) were detected by Western blot.Cell phagocytic function was detected by phagocytosis assay.Cell migration ability was detected by cell scratch and transwell migration assay.LPS- stimulated HMC3 cells were co-cultured with 661W cells (mouse retinal photoreceptor cells), and the expression levels of B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) and Bcl-2-associated X (Bax) proteins of the cells were detected by Western blot.The number of apoptotic cells was determined by apoptosis assay. Results:VSIG4 was localized to microglia in mouse retina.The real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR results showed that compared with LPS-Len-WT group, the relative expression levels of IL-1β and TNF-α mRNA in HMC3 cells were significantly increased in LPS-Len-Mut group (both at P<0.05).The Western blot results showed that compared with LPS- Len-WT group, the protein expression levels of Nrf2, HO-1, and GPX4 in HMC3 cells were significantly reduced in LPS-Len-Mut group, and the PP65/P65 ratio was significantly increased (all at P<0.05).The phagocytic experiment results showed that the phagocytic rates of HMC3 cells in Len-Cont group, LPS-Len-Cont group, LPS-Len-WT group, and LPS-Len-Mut group were (35.67±3.22)%, (63.67±10.07)%, (84.00±3.46)%, and (64.67±2.31)%, respectively, showing a statistically significant difference ( F=59.06, P<0.001).Compared with LPS-Len-WT group, the phagocytic rate of HMC3 cells was significantly reduced in LPS-Len-Mut group ( P<0.05).The results of cell scratch and transwell migration assay showed that compared with LPS-Len-WT group, the migration rate of HMC3 cells at 24 and 48 hours and the number of invading cells per unit area at 24 hours were significantly reduced in LPS-Len-Mut group (all at P<0.05).Compared with LPS-Len-WT group, the expression ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 protein and the number of cell apoptosis were significantly increased in the LPS-Len-Mut group under the co-culture system (both at P<0.05). Conclusions:VSIG4 is localized to mouse retinal microglia.When the VSIG4 gene in RP mutates, HMC3 cells under LPS stimulation exhibit a series of changes, including activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway, decreased activation of the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway, increased secretion of inflammatory cytokines, reduced phagocytic and migratory abilities, and increased cell apoptosis in co-culture systems.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） emergency management policy texts in China， reveal the characteristics， problems and improvement directions of Chinese medicine emergency management policies in China， and provide references and lessons for improving the level of Chinese medicine emergency management. METHODS Twenty-four TCM emergency management policy texts issued at the central level from 2016 to 2023 were coded and analyzed using Nvivo11 software to construct a three-dimensional analysis framework based on policy tools， stakeholders and policy strength. RESULTS In the policy tools dimension， the environmental type was the most （46.74%）， the supply type was the second （31.80%）， and the demand type was the least （21.46%）； in the stakeholder dimension， there were more healthcare institutions （40.63%） and government departments （31.25%）， and fewer healthcare workers （14.84%） and residents （13.28%）； in the policy strength dimension， the overall policy strength was poor， and the differences in effectiveness across policy instruments and stakeholders were more significant. The cross-cutting results showed that there was a certain degree of mismatch in policy instruments， stakeholders and policy strength. CONCLUSIONS The use of supply-oriented policy tools is slightly lacking， and the use of policy tools should be optimized in a coordinated manner； the distribution of stakeholders is relatively unbalanced， and synergies among stakeholders should be enhanced； the overall strength of policies is poor， and the top-level design of relevant policies should be improved.

Objective:To study the changes of patient-related costs and the use of stents and other consumables before and after the centralized procurement of coronary stents.Methods:The inpatient medical insurance settlement case data of 1,973 patients with coronary stent implantation admitted to Daping Hospital of Army Medical University from December 2019 to October 2021 were selected.Among them,the data of 1,317 cases of percutaneous cardiovascular surgery and coronary stent implantation with serious or complications and accompanying disease group were slected according to disease diagnosis related groups(DRG),which were divided into the pre-centralized procurement group(667 cases)and the post-centralized procurement group(650 cases)according to the centralized procurement of coronary stents before and after.The costs of patients'medical consumables with the consumption of patients'medical consumables and the impact of the use of consumables such as coronary stents on the costs of medical consumables were compared.Results:There was no significant statistical difference in the hospitalization days and the average number of stents used in patients undergoing percutaneous cardiovascular procedures and coronary stent implantation with centralized procurement of coronary stents.There was a statistically significant difference in the total diagnosis and treatment cost,medical consumables cost,medicines and consumables cost and medicines cost between the pre-centralized procurement group and the post-centralized procurement group(Z=-22.316,-23.546,-22.917,-5.724,P<0.05).The cost of stents[16 260(13 300,32 272)yuan],the number of catheter guidewire balloon sheaths consumables[5(4,8)sets(pieces)],and the cost of catheter guidewire balloon sheaths consumables[8 719(5 805,15 372)yuan]in the pre-collection group were collected.There were statistically significant differences in the stent cost[1 059(590,1 770)yuan],the number of catheter guidewire balloon sheaths consumables[8(7,12)sets(pieces)],and the cost of catheter guidewire balloon sheaths consumables[5 708(3 392,12 871)yuan]between the two groups(Z=-30.452,16.582,-7.670,P<0.05).There was a statistical correlation between the cost of coronary stents and the cost of catheter guidewire balloon sheaths before and after centralized volume procurement on the cost of medical consumables for patients(r=0.903,0.473,0.785,0.953,P<0.05).The correlation coefficient between the cost of coronary stents and the cost of medical consumables for patients in the post-centralized procurement group decreased compared to the pre-centralized procurement group,the correlation coefficient between the cost of catheter guidewire balloon sheath and the cost of medical consumables for patients increased.Conclusion:The centralized procurement of coronary stents has a significant cost control effect on patients in the disease groups,and affects the cost structure of medical consumables.Combined with DRG reform,it can continuously improve the standardization and scientificity of clinical use of medical consumables.

Objective:To evaluate whether additional radical surgery is necessary following non-curative endoscopic resection of early colorectal cancer.Method:Clinicopathological data in 104 patients following non-curative endoscopic resection of early colorectal coucer at the Department of General Surgery, Peking University First Hospital between Jan 2011 and Dec 2021.Results:Lymph node metastasis and/or residual cancer was found in 23 patients (22%), including 12 cases of lymph node metastasis, 7 cases of residual cancer and 4 patients with both residual cancer and lymph node metastasis. Univariate analysis indicated that vascular infiltration, positive vertical margin, and female gender were risk factors for lymph node metastasis. Risk factors for residual cancer were tumors ≥2 cm in size, negative lift sign, infiltration depth of ≥1 000 μm, and positive horizontal and vertical margins. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that vascular invasion, positive vertical margins, and being female were independent risk factors for lymph node metastasis, while positive vertical margins was independent risk factor for residual cancer. Salvage surgery lasted for a median of 184 (156-233) minutes, with an estimated blood loss of 50 (20-100) ml and an average postoperative hospital stay of 9 (8-11) days. Seven cases of Clavein-Dindo Ⅱ or higher complications were observed, including pulmonary embolism in 1 case , anastomotic leakage in one, lymphatic fistula in one, bowel obstruction in 2 cases and urinary tract infection in 2 cases.Conclusion:Salvage surgery is mandatory for early endoscopic non-curative resection of colorectal cancer.

【Objective】 To investigate the effects of radical prostatectomy (RP) or brachytherapy (BT) on the prognosis of patients with high-risk prostate cancer as initial treatment, in order to provide a reference for the selection of clinical treatment options. 【Methods】 The clinical data of 133 191 patients diagnosed with high-risk prostate cancer and treated with RP or BT during 2005 and 2014 were extracted from the SEER database.The 5-year and 10- year cancer-specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS) were compared with K-M analysis and univariate and multivariate Cox regression.The clinical data of another 253 patients diagnosed with high-risk prostate cancer in Subei People’s Hospital during 2015 and 2020 were collected, including 153 patients who received RP and 100 patients who received BT.The 5-year biochemical progress-free survival (bPFS) and CSS were compared with K-M analysis. 【Results】 Univariate analysis of SEER data showed that BT was associated with a higher risk of death (HR=1.319, 95%CI: 1.256-1.386, P<0.001); age, marital status and TNM stage were associated with higher risk of death (P<0.001).Multivariate analysis, adjusted for relevant variables, showed that BT did not result in a higher risk of death compared with RP (HR=0.964, 95%CI:0.924-0.996, P=0.808). The OS curve showed that the longer the observed survival time, the better OS of RP as compared to BT (P<0.001); however, the CSS survival curve showed that the longer the observed survival time, the better CSS of BT compared to RP (P<0.001).The single-center data analysis showed no significant difference between BT and RP in the 5-year bPFS (P=0.263) and CSS (P=0.946). 【Conclusion】 For patients with high-risk prostate cancer, there is a significant difference in the prognosis of the two treatments if there is no adjustment of age, marital status, TNM stage and other factors, and the efficacy of RP is better than that of BT, especially in patients with survival more than 10 years.However, there is no statistically significant difference in the prognosis after the possible confounding factors are adjusted.Therefore, the initial treatment choice for these patients should be weighed from multiple perspectives, and patients’ choices must be respected after they are fully informed.
