Objective : To investigate the brain microvascular tissue block culture method for extracting primary rat brain microvascular endothelial cells and identify its effect. Methods : Brain tissue from 4-week-old Sprague Dawley rats was screened, pre-digested and solidified to obtain brain microvascular segments. These segments were subsequently placed in a CO2incubator for primary culture. The target cells were identified by cell morphology and immunocytochemical staining for factor Ⅷ-related antigen. Results : After a 48-hour culture periodin vitro, the short spindle cells crawled out from around the brain microvascular segments. After 72 hours, island-like cell culsters formed. After 96 hours the clusters fused and the cells formed a typical monolayer, cobble stone-like, and mosaic arrangement. Factor Ⅷ-related antigen immunocytochemical staining showed that the cytoplasm of the cells appeared brown-red, indicating positive expression; DAB stained the nucleus, showing blue-dark. Conclusion The brain microvascular tissue block culture method can isolate and culture primary rat brain microvascular endothelial cells.

Objective To analyze the clinical application of the Donabedian-based structure-process-result three-dimensional quality evaluation model for the prevention of stress injury in bone tumor surgery.Methods A total of 284 patients with bone tumor who were admitted to The Second Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from January 2022 to December 2023 were enrolled and assigned to two groups according to the random number table.The control group received routine nursing.In the observation group,the Donabedian-based structure-process-result three-dimensional quality evaluation model was applied to prevent the stress injury in bone tumor surgery.The indexes of the two groups were compared and analyzed.Results Before intervention,there was no significant difference in scores between the two groups(P>0.05).After intervention,the scores of stress injury behavior,skill and knowledge in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of stress injury in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).There was significant difference in nursing satisfaction between the two groups(P<0.05).Conclusion Donabedian-based structure-process-result three-dimensional quality evaluation model can not only enhance the self-care ability of the patients undergoing bone tumor surgery,but also prevent stress injury,thus improving patient satisfaction.

Objective To analyze ethnic differences in mutations of the PIK3CA and TP53 genes among breast cancer patients from the Han, Tibetan, and Hui ethnic groups in Qinghai, China, and their associations with clinicopathological characteristics. Methods A total of 382 breast cancer tissue samples were retrospectively collected from surgical patients (Jan 2020−Dec 2022), comprising 200 Han, 93 Tibetan, and 89 Hui ethnicity. Mutations in PIK3CA (E542K, H1047R, and E545K) and TP53 (R273H and R175H) were detected by using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Correlations between mutations and clinicopathological parameters were analyzed. Results Significant differences were observed in pTNM stage, lymph node metastasis, molecular subtypes, and PR status among the three ethnic groups. The overall mutation rate of PIK3CA and TP53 was 48.95%. The PIK3CA-p.E542K mutation rate in Tibetan cohort was significantly higher than those in Han and Hui cohort, whereas the detection rate of the PIK3CA-p.E545K mutation was lower in Tibetan cohort than that in Han cohort. The PIK3CA-p.E542K mutation was associated with an increased risk of lymph node metastasis. The TP53-p.R175H mutation was significantly correlated with advanced pTNM stage, vascular invasion, and triple-negative breast cancer. The PIK3CA-H1047R and E545K mutations were enriched in the luminal A subtype of breast cancer. Conclusion Considerable ethnic disparities exist in breast cancer mutation profiles in Qinghai, with the high-frequency PIK3CA-p.E542K mutation in Tibetan population potentially serving as a region-specific therapeutic target. Mutations are closely linked to tumor aggressiveness and molecular subtypes, highlighting the value of PIK3CA/TP53 mutation detection for early risk stratification and personalized treatment of breast cancer in high-altitude populations.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of an integrated laparoscopic simulation training course (best essential surgical technique training, BEST) in enhancing laparoscopic peritoneal suturing techniques in surgical residents.Methods As an integrated two-stage program, the BEST course applied basic laparoscopic training system with simple molds in phase Ⅰ training, and then adopted advanced laparoscopic training system, 3D Laparoscope and ex-vivo animal models in phase Ⅱ training. The laparoscopic suturing techniques were practiced in phase Ⅱ training. From August 2021 to July 2024, surgical residents in the second year of the national standardized training program were divided into pilot and control groups based on whether they had undergone the BEST course. Two cases of laparoscopic peritoneal suture were performed by the surgical residents under supervision in the department of gastrointestinal surgery. The operative time, quality of suture, and independent completion rate were compared between the two groups.Results A total of 33 surgical residents (19 in pilot group and 14 in control group) were included in this study, and a total of 66 cases of laparoscopic peritoneal suture were performed (38 in pilot group and 28 in control group). The operative time was significantly shorter in pilot group than that in control group (15.7 min vs. 17.5 min, P=0.025). The quality of suture was significantly better in pilot group compared to control group (P=0.023). In pilot group, all peritoneal sutures were performed by residents independently, whereas in control group, 3 cases (10.7%) were assisted by the supervisor, and the independent completion rate was different significantly (P=0.039).Conclusions The BEST course can help improve surgical residents′ laparoscopic peritoneal suturing techniques and could be promoted in the national standardized training program for surgical residents.

Objective To explore the correlations between interleukin-6(IL-6),interleukin-8(IL-8),antimicrobial peptide LL-37 and the microbial abundance and the degree of mucosal injury in patients with trichomonal vaginitis(TV).Methods A total of 120 TV patients admitted from January 2022 to December 2024 were selected and divided into the occurrence group(n=63)and the non-occurrence group(n=57)according to presence and absence of mucosal injury.The general data,IL-6,IL-8,LL-37 and microbial abundance were compared between the two groups.According to the degree of mucosal injury,the occurrence group was divided into the mild subgroup(n=34),the moderate subgroup(n=20),and the severe subgroup(n=9).Pearson correlation analysis was applied to investigate the correlations between IL-6,IL-10,antimicrobial peptide LL-37,microbial abundance and the degree of mucosal injury.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of mucosal injury in TV patients.The receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)was used to evaluate the predictive value of relevant indicators for mucosal injury in TV patients.Result The levels of IL-6,IL-8,antimicrobial peptide LL-37,and the abundance of Actinobacteria and Gardnerella in the occurrence group were higher than those in the non-occurrence group,while the abundance of Firmicutes and Lactobacillus was lower than that in the non-occurrence group(P<0.05,P<0.01).Pearson correlation analysis showed that IL-6,IL-8,antimicrobial peptide LL-37,and abundance of Actinobacteria and Gardnerella were positively correlated with the degree of mucosal injury(r=0.543,0.713,0.352,0.409,0.659,P<0.01),while the abundance of Firmicutes and Lactobacillus was negatively correlated with the degree of mucosal injury(r=-0.540,-0.504,P<0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that IL-6,IL-8,antimicrobial peptide LL-37,and abundance of Actinobacteria were risk factors for mucosal injury in TV patients,while the abundance of Firmicutes and the abundance of Lactobacillus were protective factors(P<0.05).The ROC curve showed that the area under the ROC curve(AUC)of the combined detection of IL-6,IL-8,antibacterial peptide 37,and the abundance of Actinobacteria,Firmicutes,and Lactobacillus in evaluating mucosal injury in TV patients was higher than that of the single detection(P<0.01).Conclusion IL-6,IL-8,antimicrobial peptide LL-37 and microbial abundance are closely related to the degree of mucosal injury in TV patients.The combined detection has a high value in evaluating the occurrence of mucosal injury in TV patients.
