Chronic excessive alcohol consumption is a major global public health concern that severely endangers human health. Excessive alcohol intake disrupts the functions of multiple organs and systems in the human body through diverse mechanisms. The alcohol-sensitive microbiota-gut-brain axis plays a critical role in maintaining systemic homeostasis， immune maturation， and endocrine metabolism. Chronic excessive alcohol consumption not only alters the composition of the gut microbiota and the levels of its metabolites， but also compromises intestinal barrier integrity， increases intestinal permeability， and allows harmful metabolites to enter the systemic circulation， thereby triggering a variety of diseases including alcohol-related brain injury. Alcohol-related brain injury is one of the most severe consequences of unrecognized or inadequately treated alcohol use disorder （AUD）， which can lead to extensive neuronal damage and neurocognitive dysfunction. Although the potential role of the microbiota-gut-brain axis in alcohol-related brain injury has been proposed， the exact underlying mechanisms have not yet been fully elucidated. Therefore， in this review， we systematically analyze the associations among chronic excessive alcohol consumption， the microbiota-gut-brain axis， and alcohol-related brain injury， and explore the potential mechanisms underlying alcohol-induced brain damage via this axis.

Objective Jejunal interposition is an important option for restoring gastrointestinal continuity in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable for reconstruction due to previous gastrectomy, tumor involvement, failed gastric conduit, or other constraints. Although the jejunum offers a caliber similar to the esophagus, a rich blood supply, and preserved peristaltic function, anatomical variations in mesenteric length and vascular arcades render long-segment and high-level reconstruction susceptible to excessive tension, mesenteric torsion, venous congestion, and inadequate distal perfusion. This consensus aims to provide standardized recommendations for the application of jejunal interposition in this specific patient population. Methods This consensus was developed in accordance with the WHO Handbook for Guideline Development and Chinese national guideline development standards, with reference to the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ(AGREE Ⅱ), Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT), and Scientific, Transparent and Applicable Rankings (STAR) checklists. The project was registered on the international practice guidelines registry platform (PREPARE-2026CN1384). The working group systematically searched Chinese and English evidence addressing 12 clinical questions. Evidence was graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) 2009 system, with structured appraisal of risk of bias, inconsistency, indirectness, and imprecision. Recommendations were formulated through two rounds of Delphi surveys and a face-to-face consensus meeting, with an agreement threshold of ≥75%. Results The consensus generated 12 recommendations covering indications, selection between jejunum and colon, preoperative assessment, surgical approach and reconstruction route, pedicled jejunal interposition (PJI), supercharged pedicled jejunal interposition (SPJ), indocyanine green (ICG) perfusion assessment, perioperative nutrition, management of anastomotic leakage, long-term follow-up, and special treatment scenarios. Given that the available direct evidence is predominantly derived from single-center retrospective cohorts and case series, recommendations extrapolated from general esophagectomy or other gastrointestinal surgical evidence are deliberately phrased with caution. Conclusion Jejunal interposition is a safe and effective approach for digestive tract reconstruction in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable. This consensus emphasizes that clinical decision-making should be individualized based on the patient's prior treatment history, reconstruction height, vascular anatomy, technical availability, and institutional experience in the Chinese context.

Objective To discuss the effect of interleukin-17A(IL-17A)and transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1)on the benign tracheal stenosis after tracheal injury in experimental dogs.Methods The trachea stenosis model of healthy Beagle dogs was established by burning the middle part of trachea with electric snare under bronchoscopy guidance.A total of 21 dogs were divided into normal group(n=3,receiving normal feeding),molding group(n=12,after airway modeling every 3 dogs were sacrificed each week for 4 weeks),IL-17A suppression group(n=3,receiving Secukinumab after airway modeling),and IL-17A inhibitor+TGF-β1 inhibitor group(n=3,receiving Secukinumab and SB43154 after airway modeling).Bronchoscopy and CT scan were performed once a week,and the stenosis degree was calculated.RT-qPCR,immunohistochemistry,and HE staining of the obtained tracheal tissues were performed.Results Within 1-4 weeks after molding,in module-making dogs the degree of stenosis of the injured trachea gradually increased,and the expressions of ECM-related proteins,TGF-β1 and IL-17A were up-regulated.After treatment with IL-17A inhibitors,the inflammatory infiltration and granulation tissue hyperplasia were reduced and the early tracheal stenosis was improved(P＜0.05).The combination use of IL-17A inhibitor and TGF-β1 inhibitor had a better remission effect(P＜0.05).Conclusion IL-17A and TGF-β1 may synergistically affect the formation of tracheal stenosis.

Objective To analyze the diagnostic value of serum biomarkers in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis complicated by invasive pulmonary aspergillosis.Methods A retrospective collection of laboratory test results,including blood analysis,liver function,lymphocyte counts,and cytokine levels,from 54 patients diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis and invasive pulmonary aspergillosis admitted to the Third People's Hospital of Kunming between January 2021 and May 2024.Additionally,70 patients with simple pulmonary tuberculosis and 50 healthy individuals were collected as control groups to compare serum biomarker levels across the three groups and analyze relevant factors and diagnostic value for pulmonary tuberculosis patients with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis.Results Among different age groups,the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis was 29 cases(53.7％)in youth,15 cases(27.8％)in middle age,and 10 cases(18.5％)in the elderly.In terms of gender distribution,there were 41 males(75.9％)and 13 females(24.1％).The serum levels of CRP(6.85[2.10,27.0])ng/L,PCT(0.05[0.05,0.15])ng/mL,RBC(4.55±0.65)× 1012/L,Hb(129.13±19.10)g/L,TP(66.23±6.82)g/L,ALB(37.03±4.77)g/L,and CHOL(4.30[3.71,4.91])mmol/L in the invasive pulmonary aspergillosis group showed no significant difference compared to the simple tuberculosis group and healthy control group(P＞0.05).The levels of CD3+T,CD4+T,and CD8+T in the invasive pulmonary aspergillosis group were significantly lower than those in the simple tuberculosis group and healthy control group(P＜0.05).The levels of IL-2,IL-4,IL-5,IL-8,IL-10,IL-12p70,IFN-α,and TNF-α in the invasive pulmonary aspergillosis group were significantly higher than those in the healthy control group(P＜0.05);IL-8,IL-12p70,and IFN-α were also higher compared to the simple tuberculosis group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).Conclusion The population with pulmonary tuberculosis complicated by invasive pulmonary aspergillosis is predominantly male and younger.The serum indicators of infection severity and nutritional status in these patients are similar to those with simple tuberculosis and lack specificity;however,their immune function is significantly lower than that of simple tuberculosis patients.Multiple cytokines are elevated,particularly IL-8,IL-12p70,and IFN-α,which can aid in the differential diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis infection.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors of chronic liver failure in patients with primary hepatic carcinoma(PHC)before intervention,and to establish and evaluate a nomogram risk prediction model.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted by collecting general data and clinical test data within 24 hours of admission for PHC patients.Univariate analysis and Lasso regression were used for variable selection,followed by multivariate logistic regression analysis to identify independent influencing factors for CLF before PHC intervention,leading to the establishment of a nomogram risk prediction model.The model was evaluated using the Hosmer-Lemeshow test,receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,calibration curve,clinical decision curve,and clinical impact curve.Result A total of 353 cases of PHC patients were collected,including 153 cases in the liver failure group and 200 cases in the non-liver failure group,with a prevalence rate of 43.3％.Variables selected by Lasso regression included gastrointestinal bleeding,prothrombin time(PT),albumin(ALB),total bilirubin(TBIL),and gamma glutamyl transferase(GGT).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that gastrointestinal bleeding(OR=13.549,95％CI:2.899～63.322,P=0.001),PT(OR=1.599,95％CI:1.282～1.995,P＜0.001),TBIL(OR=1.016,95％CI:1.006～1.025,P=0.002),and GGT(OR=1.002,95％CI:1.000～1.003,P=0.028)were independent risk factors for chronic liver failure prior to PHC intervention,leading to the establishment of a nomogram risk prediction model.The Hosmer Lemeshow test showed that the model had a good fit(x2=6.152,P＞0.05);the area under ROC was 0.902(0.869-0.934),with a sensitivity of 80.4％and a specificity of 87.5％.The calibration curve indicated that the model predicts chronic liver failure prior to PHC intervention with good consistency.Clinical decision curve analysis and clinical impact curve analysis showed that the model has good clinical utility within a certain threshold range.Conclusion Gastrointestinal bleeding,PT ≥16.05s,TBIL≥37.80 mmol/L,and GGT≥ 99.00 U/L are independent risk factors for the occurrence of chronic liver failure before PHC intervention.The established nomogram risk prediction model has certain clinical application value in predicting the risk of chronic liver failure before PHC intervention.

Objective:To compare the dosimetric parameters under different incremental modes between intensity-modulated radiation therapy(IMRT)and volume rotation intensity-modulated therapy(VMAT)for the target area of large volume brain metastases(BMs),and to explore the better way of treating BMs based on hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy(HSRT)of linear accelerator.Methods:A total of 30 BMs patients who underwent IMRT at The 971th Hospital of Navy of the CPLA from 2020 to 2023 were selected.In the treatment planning system(TPS),three types of IMRT plans and VMAT plans were designed,which included uniformity plan(Planuniformity)of target area dose,uniform increased plan(Planuniform increased-dose)and incremental plan(Planincremental)within target area.In the inside of the target area,the target area of high dose(GTVh)was set,and Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental were designed to aim at GTVh.The differences of the doses of three types of treatment plans included Planuniformity,Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental,which were respectively designed by using IMRT and VMAT,were analyzed.The mean dose(Dmean)of the target area,the 50%and 2%exposed doses(D50%and D2%)of the target area were observed and compared.The conformity index(CI),homogeneity index(HI),gradient index(GI),and the volume percentage(V10 Gy-V40 Gy)that normal brain tissue received 10 Gy-40 Gy also were observed and compared.Results:Compared with Planuniformity of IMRT,the Dmean of GTV of Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of IMRT increased by 10.13%and 17.9%,with statistically significant differences(t=13.680,12.771,P＜0.05).D50%increased by 8.9%and 10.8%,with statistically significant differences(t=15.190,9.929,P＜0.05).D2%increased by 15.2%and 46.4%,with statistically significant differences(t=52.320,8.746,P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in normal brain tissue V10 Gy-V40 Gy among Planuniformity,Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of IMRT(P＞0.05).Compared with Planuniformity of VMAT,the Dmean of GTV of Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of VMAT increased by 10.53%and 21.23%,with statistically significant differences(t=18.641,15.461,P＜0.05),and D50%increased by 9.1%and 13.4%,with statistically significant differences(t=11.382,10.952,P＜0.05),and D2%increased by 16.4%and 48.8%,with statistically significant differences(t=56.471,8.685,P＜0.05),respectively.There were no statistically significant differences in normal brain tissue V10 Gy-V40 Gy among Planuniformity,Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of VMAT(P＞0.05).The normal brain tissue V20 Gy,V30 Gy and V40 Gy of Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of IMRT were respectively less than those of VMAT,and the differences of them between IMRT and VMAT were significant(tPlan uniform increased-dose=2.112,2.215,2.444,tPlan incremental=2.323,2.939,3.145,P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant difference in D2%,Dmean,and D50%between IMRT and VMAT(P＞0.05).Conclusion:On the premise of ensuring the safety of normal brain tissue at the edge of the target area,the synchronously increasing of the central dose of the target area will not significantly increase the dose for normal brain tissue.Both IMRT and VMAT can meet the requirements of increment in the inside of the target area,and VMAT has slightly better increment and higher efficiency within target area.The incremental of VMAT target area is slightly better,which also has better efficiency,while the enhancement effect of the dose of target area of Planincremental is better than that of the Planuniform increased-dose.The Plan incremental of VMAT is more suitable for HSRT treatment for BMs.

Autism spectrum disorder(ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder, and social impairment was one of the core symptoms of ASD, which can seriously affects the social life of patients.The pathogenesis of social impairment in ASD is unclear and it may involves many brain abnormalities.The related theories and hypotheses are numerous and there is no unified conclusion. Studies have shown that the cerebellum has extensive connections with brain networks and is involved in the regulation of social cognition, but its role in ASD has not been fully emphasized.The structural and functional abnormalities of the cerebellar-cortex (CC) loop in ASD patients can lead to language communication disorders, empathy disorders, difficulties in interpreting social cues, abnormal social reward processing and emotional regulation disorders, which are closely related to ASD social impairment. Noninvasive brain stimulation of the superficial cerebellum can improve the abnormal CC circuit in ASD patients, and the cerebellum can be considered as a target for the treatment of social disorders in ASD in the future.Based on the clinical and basic researches on social impairment in ASD in recent years, this article reviews the relevant manifestations of disorders which cerebellar and CC circuit involved, aiming to promote the development of related research in the future.

Objective To study the clinical value of stroboscopic laryngoscope combined with narrow band imaging endoscope in the diagnosis of benign and malignant glottic lesions.Methods A total of 60 patients(84 sides of vocal cord)who visited our department from June 2022 to January 2023 with hoarseness as the main complaint and were found to have glottic lesions by electronic nasopharyngoscopy were selected.In all 60 patients with 84 sides of vocal cord degenerative lesions,stroboscopic laryngoscopy and narrow band imaging(NBI)endoscopy were com-pleted.The examination results were evaluated and graded separately.The same operative group performed the re-section biopsy of vocal cord lesions under general anesthesia and laryngoscope respectively,and the pathological re-sults were used as the diagnostic gold standard.With sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,false negative rate,and false positive rate as the main evaluation indexes,the differences in diagnostic accuracy between single test technique and combined application of the two techniques were analyzed.Results Pathological results showed squamous cell carci-noma on 18 sides,carcinoma in situ on 4 sides,severe dysplasia on 4 sides,mild and moderate dysplasia on 13 sides,and papilloma,chronic,mucosal,nflammation,hyperplasia,hypokeratosis,hyperkeratosis on 45 sides.The sensitivity of strobe laryngoscopy detection was 53.06％and specificity was 60.34％.The sensitivity of NBI endo-scopic detection was 88.46％,and the specificity was 89.66％.The sensitivity of strobe laryngoscopy combined with NBI endoscopy was 96.15％,and the specificity was 94.83％.The areas under the ROC curve of strobe laryn-goscopy,NBI endoscopy and white light imaging combined with narrowband imaging were 0.888(95％CI:0.820～0.957),0.943(95％CI:0.885～1),0.970(95％CI:0.942～0.999),respectively.The area under the curve of the combined method was higher than that of the single method,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Stroboscopic laryngoscope combined with NBI endoscope can improve the diagnostic accuracy of benign and malignant glottic lesions.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of precise disconnection of pargastric varices guided by endoscopic ultrasound in the treatment of esophagogastric variceal bleeding.Method A retrospective analysis was conducted on 20 patients with cirrhosis esophagogastric variceal bleeding treated with endoscopic ultrasound-guided precise disconnection of pargastric varices from January 1,2024 to December 31,2024.The efficacy was analyzed.Result All 20 patients successfully completed the precise disconnection of pargastric varices under the guidance of endoscopic ultrasound.The injection of tissue gel combined with the placement of spring coils(14 cases)and the injection of tissue gel alone(4 cases)successfully blocked the pargastric varices.All patients did not experience perforation,esophageal and cardia stenosis,massive bleeding,septicemia,or ectopic embolization.One patient who received tissue gel alone had slight bleeding from the pargastric varices after surgery and improved after 3 days of treatment to reduce portal vein pressure.Another one patient who received tissue gel alone had a low-grade fever and normal body temperature after 3 days of anti-infection treatment.Conclusion Precise disconnection of pargastric varices under the guidance of endoscopic ultrasound has a good therapeutic effect on esophagogastric variceal bleeding,with fewer complications such as ectopic embolization,massive bleeding,infection,and perforation.However,close follow-up observation is still needed to address the issue of pargastric varices.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and effects on emotional state, anorectal physiological function, serum inflammation factors and neurotransmitters of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on functional anorectal pain (FAP) patients, and to explore the potential therapeutic mechanisms.Methods:From September 1, 2022 to December 31, 2023, a total of 50 FAP patients who were admitted to Nanjing Hospital of Chinese Medicine Affiliated to Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine were enrolled in this study. The patients were randomly divided into the treatment group (20 cases) and the control group (20 cases) according to a random number table and relevant exclusion criteria. The treatment group received rTMS treatment and the control group received sham rTMS treatment. The Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA) score, Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) score, visual analogue scale (VAS) score, high-resolution anorectal manometry data (anal resting pressure, anal squeeze pressure, initial sensation shreshold, defecation shreshold, defecation urgency shreshold, and tolerance shreshold), and the levels of serum inflammatory factors (interleukin(IL)-4, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor-α) and 5-hydroxytryptamin(5-HT) were recorded before and after treatment. Independent sample t-test, paired t-test, Mann-Whitney U test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used for statistical analysis. Results:The VAS, HAMA, and HAMD scores of the treatment group after treatment were lower than those before treatment (3.85±2.23 vs. 6.85±1.98, 4.40±3.39 vs. 8.75±6.60, and 7.10±6.56 vs. 12.85±7.20), and were also lower than those of the control group after treatment(6.50±1.76, 8.20±6.65, 12.10±6.80), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=5.68, 4.72, 6.06; -4.17, -2.27, -2.37; P<0.001, <0.001, <0.001; <0.001, =0.028, and =0.023). The initial sensation shreshold, defecation shreshold, defecation urgency shreshold, and tolerance shreshold of the treatment group after treatment were higher than those before treatment(30.00(30.00, 46.00) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) vs. 23.00(18.50, 29.00) mmHg, 50.00(44.50, 60.00) mmHg vs. 37.00(30.75, 51.50) mmHg, (74.30±16.02) mmHg vs. (63.70±22.21) mmHg, 119.00(100.00, 148.00) mmHg vs. 98.00 (69.50, 153.00) mmHg), and the tolerance shreshold of the treatment group after treatment was higher than that of the control group after treatment(119.00 (100.00, 148.00) mmHg vs. 102.00(84.50, 111.50) mmHg), and the differences were statistically significant ( Z=–3.14 and –2.86, t=-4.02, Z=-2.84 and -2.11; P=0.002, 0.004, 0.001, 0.004, and 0.035). Additionally, the 5-HT level of the treatment group after treatment was higher than that before treatment (1 549.41 (1 320.21, 1 640.03) μg/L vs. 1 081.52(874.36, 1 626.79) μg/L), and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-2.88, P=0.004). Conclusion:The rTMS treatment can effectively relieve the pain, anxiety and depression, improve visceral sensitivity, and influence the neurotransmitter level of brain-gut axis in FAP patients.
