Objective To explore the relationship between PANoptosis and hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI), and to screen the key genes of PANoptosis in HIRI. Methods PANoptosis-related differentially expressed genes (PDG) were obtained through the Gene Expression Omnibus database and GeneCards database. Gene ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) were used to explore the biological pathways related to PDG. A protein-protein interaction network was constructed. Key genes were selected, and their diagnostic value was assessed and validated in the HIRI mice. Immune cell infiltration analysis was performed based on the cell-type identification by estimating relative subsets of RNA transcripts. Results A total of 16 PDG were identified. GO analysis showed that PDG were closely related to cellular metabolism. KEGG analysis indicated that PDG were mainly enriched in cellular death pathways such as apoptosis and immune-related signaling pathways such as the tumor necrosis factor signaling pathway. GSEA results showed that key genes were mainly enriched in immune-related signaling pathways such as the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway. Two key genes, DFFB and TNFSF10, were identified with high accuracy in diagnosing HIRI, with areas under the curve of 0.964 and 1.000, respectively. Immune infiltration analysis showed that the control group had more infiltration of resting natural killer cells, M2 macrophages, etc., while the HIRI group had more infiltration of M0 macrophages, neutrophils, and naive B cells. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction results showed that compared with the Sham group, the relative expression of DFFB messenger RNA in liver tissue of HIRI group mice increased, and the relative expression of TNFSF10 messenger RNA decreased. Cibersort analysis showed that the infiltration abundance of naive B cells was positively correlated with DFFB expression (r=0.70, P=0.035), and the infiltration abundance of M2 macrophages was positively correlated with TNFSF10 expression (r=0.68, P=0.045). Conclusions PANoptosis-related genes DFFB and TNFSF10 may be potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for HIRI.

OBJECTIVE To optimize the processing technology of Epimedium koreanum roasted with suet oil and analyze its characteristic chromatogram before and after processing. METHODS The optimal processing technology was optimized by orthogonal experiments with frying power， frying time and medicinal temperature as factors using the comprehensive score of appearance traits （color+odor）， alcohol-soluble extract， the contents of icariin and baohuoside Ⅰ as evaluation index， then proceed with verification. The E. koreanum roasted with suet oil was prepared with the optimal technology. The characteristic chromatograms of 15 batches of E. koreanum were established with the Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprint of Traditional Chinese Medicine （2012 edition）， and then similarity analysis was also conducted. Clustering analysis， principal component analysis， and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis were used to evaluate the differences in E. koreanum before and after processing. RESULTS The optimal processing technique for E. koreanum roasted with suet oil was as follows： first， heat 4 g of suet oil at a power of 600 W until it melts； next， when the temperature at the bottom of the pan reaches 140 ℃， add 20 g of E. koreanum silk and stir-fry for 6 minutes； finally， remove it and let it cool. Comprehensive score of 3 validation tests was 98.94 points　（RSD＜3%）. The established characteristic chromatogram of E. koreanum and E. koreanum roasted with suet oil were calibrated with 16 and 15 common peaks， respectively. Chromatographic peak 2 was determined to be chlorogenic acid， peak 5 to be chaohuoding A， peak 6 to be chaohuoding B， peak 7 to be chaohuoding C， peak 8 to be icariin， and peak 14 to be baohuoside Ⅰ. The similarities were all greater than 0.9. Results of cluster analysis and principal component analysis showed that E. koreanum and E. koreanum roasted with suet oil were clustered into distinct groups. The results of orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis showed that the variable importance projection values for peak 13， peak 15， peak 9， peak 1， peak 8， peak 12， peak 7， and peak 10 were all greater than 1. CONCLUSIONS The study successfully optimized the processing technology of suet oil-roasted E. koreanum. There are significant differences in the characteristic chromatograms of E. koreanum before and after processing. Among them， the chemical components corresponding to peak 13， peak 15， peak 9， peak 1， peak 8， peak 12， peak 7， and peak 10 may be the differential components of E. koreanum before and after processing.

Objective To explore the safety of Yttrium-90 resin microsphere selective internal radiation therapy (⁹⁰Y-SIRT) on malignant liver tumors. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 64 patients with malignant liver tumors who underwent ⁹⁰Y-SIRT from February 2023 to November 2024 at Weifang People’s Hospital. The clinical characteristics of the patients and the occurrence of adverse reactions after treatment were analyzed to assess the safety of ⁹⁰Y-SIRT. Results Among the 64 patients, there were 52 males (81.25%) and 12 females (18.75%); the average age was (56.29±11.08) years. Seven patients (10.94%) had tumors with maximum diameter of less than 5 cm, 38 patients (59.38%) had tumors with maximum diameter of 5-10 cm, and 19 patients (29.68%) had tumors with maximum diameter of greater than 10 cm. There were 47 cases (73.44%) of solitary lesions and 17 cases (26.56%) of multiple lesions; 53 cases (82.81%) were primary liver cancers and 11 cases (17.19%) were metastatic liver cancers. Of the 64 patients, 63 successfully completed the Technetium-99m macroaggregated albumin (^99mTc-MAA) perfusion test and received the ⁹⁰Y-SIRT; one patient received ⁹⁰Y-SIRT after the second ^99mTc-MAA perfusion test due to a work error. The most common adverse reactions included grade 1 alanine aminotransferase (ALT) elevation in 26 cases (40.62%) and grade 2 in 2 cases (9.37%), grade 1 aspartate aminotransferase (AST) elevation in 27 cases (42.18%) and grade 2 in 7 cases (10.93%); grade 1 nausea in 17 cases (26.56%) and grade 2 in 6 cases (9.37%); grade 1 abdominal pain in 12 cases (18.75%), grade 2 in 5 cases (7.81%), and grade 3 in 1 case (1.56%); grade 1 vomiting in 11 cases (17.18%), grade 2 in 5 cases (7.81%), and grade 3 in 1 case (1.56%). Conclusion The adverse reactions of ⁹⁰Y-SIRT for treating malignant liver tumors are mild, indicating good safety.

ObjectiveTo analyze the influencing factors for recurrence in successfully treated pulmonary tuberculosis patients with isoniazid-resistant and rifampicin-sensitive in Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province. MethodsData on general demographic information, treatment information and drug susceptibility test results for pulmonary tuberculosis patients admitted to the designated tuberculosis medical institutions and registered in the tuberculosis information management system was collected in Shaoxing City from January 2011 to August 2024. A total of 428 patients with isoniazid resistance (including isoniazid single resistance and multiple resistance) but who were successfully treated were included in the study. Information for the recurrence after successful treatment of the patients was analyzed. The Cox proportional hazards models were used to analyze the influencing factors of recurrence in patients. ResultsAmong the 428 successfully treated patients included in the study, 31 cases (accounting for 7.24%) had recurrence by the end of the observation period, with a recurrence rate density of 1.31 per 100 person-years and a median recurrence time of 0.99 (0.08, 8.27) years. Among the relapsed population, 51.61% of the patients relapsed within one year after successful treatment. 77.42% of the patients relapsed within two years after successful treatment. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that when isoniazid resistance was discovered, the diagnosis classification of relapse (HR=4.115, 95%CI: 1.734‒9.767) and positive 0-month sequence smear (HR=4.457, 95%CI: 1.053‒18.866) were risk factors for recurrence after successful treatment in patients. ConclusionRegular follow-up should be strengthened for at least two years after the successful treatment of isoniazid-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis patients. Special attention should be paid to the treatment effect and regular re-examination and monitoring after the end of the treatment course of isoniazid-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis patients who have been re-treated and were sputum smear positive at baseline, so as to prevent recurrence and disease progression in high-risk populations.

Objective To evaluate adverse events(AEs)of hematological toxicities in cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6(CDK4/6)inhibitors based on the FDA adverse event reporting system(FAERS)database,and to provide a reference for rational drug use in the clinic.Methods A total of 29 quarterly AEs were extracted from the FAERS database from January 2015 to March 2022.Reported odds ratio(ROR)and proportional reported ratio(PRR)were used for data mining of CDK4/6 inhibitor AEs.Results A total of 7 872 AEs related to CDK4/6 inhibitors were reported,and the proportion of hematological AEs of each inhibitor was palbociclib(80.31%),ribociclib(15.36%),and abemaciclib(4.33%).Neutropenia and anemia were common in hematological toxicities.Palbociclib(2 982/6 322,47.17%)and ribociclib(613/1 209,50.70%)caused more neutropenia than abemaciclib(117/341,34.31%).Hematological toxicities mainly occurred 60 days after drug initiation(1 630,61.86%).Palbociclib had the longest median onset time,and 32.9%of patients still had hematological toxicities after 90 days of treatment.The clinical features and intensity were different among CDK4/6 inhibitors.Conclusions Palbociclib,abemaciclib,and ribociclib all cause significant hematological toxicities,among which abemaciclib has fewest reports of hematological toxicities.Still,the risk of death after anemia caused by abemaciclib should be noted.Complete blood cell count should be closely monitored within the first two months after treatment to monitor the patient's neutrophils and hemoglobin.The occurrence of hematological AEs associated with CDK4/6 inhibitors should be noted in the clinic.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and genetic basis of a male patient with primary infertility caused by Acephalic spermatozoa syndrome.Methods:A patient who had presented at the Henan Provincial People′s Hospital on October 1, 2022 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data and results of laboratory exams and sperm electron microscopy were collected. The patient was subjected to whole exome sequencing (WES), and candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing and pathogenicity analysis.Results:WES revealed that the patient has harbored compound heterozygous variants of the PMFBP1 gene, namely c. 853del (p.Ala285Leufs*24) and c. 1276A>T (p.Lys426X), which were both unreported previously. Sanger sequencing suggested that the c. 853del (p.Ala285Leufs*24) variant has derived from his deceased mother, whilst the c. 1276A>T (p.Lys426X) variant has derived from his father. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), both variants were classified as pathogenic (PVS1+ PM2_Supporting+ PP4). Conclusion:The compound heterozygous variants of the PMFBP1 gene probably underlay the Acephalic spermatozoa syndrome in this patient. The discovery of the novel variants has also enriched the mutational spectrum of Acephalic spermatozoa syndrome.

Professor Qiu Maoliang,in his clinical practice and experience summary of acupuncture-moxibustion in the treatment of febrile diseases,proposes four acupuncture-moxibustion antipyretic methods,namely,releasing the exterior and reducing fever,clear-ing the interior and purging the heat,nourishing the yin and purging the heat,and assisting the yang and reducing fever,which respec-tively correspond to the exterior heat syndrome,interior heat syndrome,yin deficiency fever syndrome,and yang deficiency fever syn-drome.The academic connotation of Professor Qiu Maoliang's acupuncture-moxibustion for fever can be summarized as examining the syndrome and seeking the cause,and classifying fever;coordinating the four methods of acupuncture-moxibustion and operation tech-niques,which reflect Professor Qiu Maoliang's academic characteristics,such as the convergence of Chinese and Western medicine,mutual learning of acupuncture-moxibustion and medicine,and the connection of effect mechanism and theory.Professor Qiu Ma-oliang's academic thought of acupuncture-moxibustion antipyretic method not only helps to provide basis for further application of acu-puncture-moxibustion in contemporary clinical practice,but also enriches the modern biological connotation of acupuncture-moxibus-tion medicine.

[Objective] To analyze factors influencing the postoperative progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC), construct a nomogram model for predicting PFS, and compare it with other predictive models. [Methods] A retrospective analysis was conducted on the general and clinical data of 263 RCC patients who underwent surgery at the Department of Urology, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University, during Apr.2014 and Nov.2021.Patients were divided into the progression group (n=34) and non-progression group (n=229). The data of the two groups were analyzed to identify prognostic variables associated with PFS, and a nomogram model was constructed.The performance of this model was compared with that of the University of California, Los Angeles Integrated Staging System (UISS) score, tumor staging, tumor size, tumor pathological grade, and tumor necrosis scoring system (SSIGN score), and Leibovich score by plotting receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calculating the area under the curve (AUC). Calibration curve of the nomogram was used to validate the model's performance, and K-fold cross-validation was employed to assess its external validity. [Results] Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that age (HR=2.255, 95%CI: 1.032-4.926), T stage (HR=5.766, 95%CI: 2.351-14.142), pathological grade (HR=3.100, 95%CI: 1.445-6.651), and pathological necrosis (HR=2.656, 95%CI: 1.253-5.629) were independent risk factors of PFS (P<0.05). The nomogram model based on these four independent variables had AUCs (95%CI) of 0.750 (0.630-0.870), 0.803 (0.705-0.902), and 0.847 (0.757-0.937) for 1, 3, and 5 years, respectively, which were higher than those of UISS score, SSIGN score, and Leibovich score.The calibration curve of the nomogram showed good consistency between predicted and actual probabilities.In K-fold cross-validation, the average AUCs of the nomogram at 1, 3, and 5 years were 0.761, 0.808, and 0.842, indicating good external validity of the nomogram. [Conclusion] The nomogram based on age, T stage, pathological grade and pathological necrosis can accurately predict the risk of postoperative PFS in RCC patients at 1, 3, and 5 years, which can aid clinicians in the early identification of high-risk progression.

Objective:To investigate the effect of zirconia personalized gingival structure on peri-implant soft and hard tissue stability after single-tooth implant restorations in patients with thin gingival biotypes in the anterior region, with a view to provide a clinical guideline.Methods:This retrospective study included 20 patients with thin gingival biotype and implant restorations in the anterior region. These patients included 9 males and 11 females, and the age was (35.2± 10.3) years. The patients were from the Department of Periodontal Implantology, Stomatology Hospital, Southern Medical University from January 2018 to December 2022. Computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) techniques were used to fabricate a titanium base zirconia personalized gingival structure to maintain the soft-tissue perforated gingival contour of the anterior esthetic zone. This structure consists of two modalities: titanium base + zirconia outer crown or titanium base personalized zirconia abutment + zirconia outer crown. Clinical outcomes were recorded immediately and after delivery of the final restorations. Implant retention was recorded, esthetic scoring was performed using the pink esthetic index, the amount of bone resorption at the implant margins was measured based on digitized apical radiographs, and periodontal health was evaluated using the modified plaque index and the modified bleeding index.Results:The survival rate of the 20 implants was 100% after 3 years of wearing the final restorations, with a pink aesthetic score of 9.3±0.9. Bone resorption at the proximal and distal mesial margins of the implants was 0.09 (-0.21, 0.20) mm, 0.17 (-0.12, 0.27) mm after 3 years, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant when compared to bone resorption immediately after placement of the final restoration [0(0, 0) mm] ( Z=-1.03, P=0.394; Z=-2.05, P=0.065). Conclusions:Zirconia personalized gingival structure maintains the stability of peri-implant hard and soft tissues of thin gingival biotypes in the anterior region.
