Objective:To investigate the feasibility of the bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (VRD) regimen combined with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and renal impairment, analyze treatment efficacy and renal responses stratified based on renal dysfunction severity, and explore the prognostic significance of early renal response and its affecting factors.Methods:This retrospective study, conducted at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, categorized 316 patients with newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) from August 2018 to October 2022 based on renal function for analysis of clinical characteristics, treatment response, and prognosis. Continuous variables were compared using t-tests or Mann-Whitney U tests, categorical variables utilizing Chi-square tests, survival outcomes employing Kaplan-Meier and Log-rank tests, and renal response predictors with logistic regression.Results:Patients were stratified based on baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) : normal [≥90 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1, n=160], mild [≥60 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1 to <90 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1, n=55], moderate [≥30 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1 to <60 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1, n=39], and severe impairment [<30 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1, n=62]. Moderate and severe renal impairment correlated with advanced International Staging System/Revised International Staging System classification, lower hemoglobin levels, frailty, and higher light-chain/IgD subtype prevalence ( P<0.05). Despite younger age ( P=0.001) and higher transplant rates ( P=0.041) in severe cases, overall response rates ( ORR: 93.7% ; ≥VGPR: 82.9% ) were comparable across groups ( P>0.05). Among 24 dialysis-dependent patients at diagnosis, 11 (45.8% ) achieved dialysis independence after induction [median: 3.0 (0.5–4.0) months], including 10 undergoing auto-HSCT. In 89 evaluable patients [baseline eGFR <50 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1], renal ORR (RORR) was 70.8% [rapid complete response: 31.5% ; rapid partial response: 11.2% ; rapid minimal response (RMR) : 28.1% ]. Renal response predicted better survival (overall survival: HR=0.36, 95% CI: 0.13–0.99, P=0.049). Moderate-to-severe renal impairment was associated with increased transplant-related adverse events and delayed engraftment ( P<0.05) ; however, auto-HSCT significantly improved outcomes after 33.5-month median follow-up (range: 2–65 months). Multivariate analysis identified 1q21+ ( OR=3.58, 95% CI: 1.17–11.02, P=0.026) and light-chain subtype ( OR=2.86, 95% CI: 1.08–7.69, P=0.036) as independent predictors of poor renal response. Conclusion:VRD regimen plus auto-HSCT demonstrates robust efficacy in NDMM, including patients with renal impairment, with a 70.8% RORR and manageable toxicity. Achieving ≥RMR correlates with superior prognosis, whereas 1q21+ and light-chain subtype independently predict inferior renal response.

AIM: To explore the therapeutic effect of oral Xuefu Zhuyu Pill combined with intravitreal injection of aflibercept in the treatment of retinal vein occlusion(RVO).METHODS: A total of 80 patients(80 eyes)with RVO admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to March 2024 were prospectively selected. According to the treatment method, they were divided into a control group of 40 patients treated with intravitreal injection of aflibercept, and an observation group of 40 patients treated with oral Xuefu Zhuyu Pill combined with intravitreal injection of aflibercept. The efficacy, TCM syndrome score, retinal microcirculation parameters, macular edema(ME), and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups of patients in the treatment of RVO.RESULTS: All patients have completed follow-up. The clinical effective rate of the observation group after treatment was 95%, obviously higher than that of the control group(80%; χ2=4.114, P=0.043). After treatment for 3 mo, the traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores, foveal avascular area(FAZ)area, FAZ circumference, macular central retinal thickness, and neovascularization leakage area of both groups decreased, the overall blood flow density of the superficial capillary plexus(SCP)and deep capillary plexuses(DCP)increased, and the observation group showed better results than the control group(all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the occurrence of adverse reactions between the two groups during the treatment period(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Oral administration of Xuefu Zhuyu Pill combined with intravitreal injection of aflibercept in the treatment of RVO can improve retinal microcirculation, enhance vision, restore ocular blood circulation, improve bleeding, promote ME absorption, and improve clinical efficacy.

Objective To observe the intervention effect of acupuncture at"Zusanli"(ST36)or"Neiguan"(PC6)on the ulcerative colitis(UC)model mice.And to analyze the similarities and differences of gene transcription expression between the diseased colon and the non-diseased heart after acupuncture intervention by using transcriptomics,to explore whether there are efficacy differences between the two acupoints.Methods The UC mouse model was established by inducing dextran sulfate sodium salt(DSS).After successful modeling,the mice were randomly divided into model group,Zusanli group,and Neiguan group,with 9 mice in each group.Zusanli group and Neiguan group intervened with acupuncture at"Zusanli"and"Neiguan",respectively,30 min each time,once a day,for 5 consecutive days.The control and model groups were only bound without acupuncture.Observe the general situation of mice in each group,calculate the disease activity index(DAI),observe the morphological changes of colon tissue by HE staining.Use transcriptome sequencing technology to sequence and biologically analyze the colon tissue of mice in each group,and compare and study whether the two acupoints have differences in acupoint efficacy from the perspective of diseased tissue.At the same time,take the heart tissues of each group for comparative analysis,and discuss whether the effects of the two acupoints are different from the perspective of non-diseased tissue.Results Compared with control group,the DAI score of the model group increased significantly(P<0.001),and HE staining results showed significant pathological damage;after acupuncture at Zusanli or Neiguan,the DAI scores of UC mice were reduced considerably(P<0.05),and the pathological damage was significantly improved.The results of transcriptome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis showed that the effects of acupuncture at Zusanli or Neiguan on the colon of diseased tissue involved multiple genes,and 825 differential genes with similar changes(co-DEGs)were mainly enriched in white blood cells and chemokine pathways;there were 168 differentially expressed genes(ST36 only-DEGs)affected only by Zusanli,which were enriched to gastric acid secretion and other pathways;there were 325 differentially expressed genes(PC6 only-DEGs)only affected by Neiguan,which were enriched in cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction and other pathways.There were 95 co-DEGs in the heart of non-diseased tissue,which were mainly enriched in positive regulation of defense response and response to interleukin-1;there were 28 ST36 only-DEGs;there were114 PC6 only-DEGs,which were enriched in cardiovascular diseases and other pathways.Conclusion Acupuncture of"Zusanli"and"Neiguan"could improve UC mice's symptoms and pathological colon changes.However,through transcriptomic analysis,it was found that the two acupoints had differences in gene transcription effects on the colon of diseased tissue and the heart of non-diseased tissue,suggesting that acupoints with different distribution positions had some similarities in macro efficacy.Still,there were some differences at a micro level.

Objective:To investigate the application value of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in perioperative period of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG).Method:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 1 181 patients undergoing LSG in the Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Affiliated with the Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2021 to December 2023 were collected. There were 242 males and 939 females, aged (31±8)years. Of 1 181 patients, 598 cases receiving routine perioperative care were divided into the control group, and 583 cases receiving perioperative care with ERAS were divided into the ERAS group. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and the independent sample t test was used for comparison between the groups. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and the Mann-Whitney rank sum test was used for comparison between the groups. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers or percentages, and the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability were used for comparison between the groups. Repeated measurement data were analyzed using the repeated ANOVA, with baseline scores as covariates. Simple effects analysis was conducted in case of interaction, and multiple comparisons were adjusted using the Bonferroni method. Results:(1) Postoperative outcomes. The numerical rating scale (NRS) scores for pain at immediate return to the ward and on the third postoperative mornings changed from 5.35±0.93 to 2.57±0.83 in the control group, versus changed from 3.15±0.93 to 0.70±0.65 in the ERAS group, showing significant difference between the two groups ( Ftime=66.58, Fgroup=1 765.85, Finteraction=6.90, P<0.05). After adjusting NRS scores for pain at immediate return to the ward as the baseline, results of simple effects analysis showed that on the third postoperative mornings, the NRS scores in the ERAS group were lower by 1.89, 1.53, and 1.76 respectively compared to the control group ( P<0.05). Cases with nausea at immediate return to the ward and on the third postoperative mornings changed from 497 to 97 in the control group, versus changed from 198 to 11 in the ERAS group, showing signifi-cant difference between the two groups ( χ2=294.45, 398.76,209.39, 73.00, P<0.05). Cases with vomiting at immediate return to the ward and on the third postoperative mornings changed from 243 to 41 in the control group, versus changed from 51 to 2 in the ERAS group, showing significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=160.54, 149.37, 71.76, 35.69, P<0.05). The duration of postoperative hospital stay was (3.22±0.65)days in the control group, versus (2.17±0.49)days in the ERAS group, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( t=-11.89, P<0.05). (2) Complications. The incidence of cases with dehydration within postoperative 30 days was 0.50%(3/598) in the control group, versus 0.69%(4/583) in the ERAS group, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). None of patient in the control group and the ERAS group experienced bleeding, gastric leakage, intra-abdominal infection, and no patient had unplanned secondary surgery within postoperative 30 days. Conclusions:ERAS in perioperative period of LSG are safe and feasible. Compared to routine care, ERAS can significantly reduce postoperative pain, decrease the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, shorten the postoperative hospital stay, and do not increase the rate of postoperative complications or unplanned secondary surgeries within postoperative 30 days.

Under the background of scientific and technological innovation in the new era, ethical review of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is facing new opportunities and challenges. Focusing on how to maintain integrity and innovation in the ethical review work of TCM clinical research in TCM medical institutions, starting from the characteristics of innovation and inheritance of TCM clinical research, this paper discussed the construction of the ethical review system of TCM clinical research, key elements of attention, shortcomings and deficiencies, training and communication, etc. It is also proposed that the joint construction of a Chinese characteristic scientific and technological ethics governance system should consider the unique requirements of modern technological means for the ethical review of scientific and technological projects such as dialectical treatment, re-evaluation of prescription projects, and expansion of indications in clinical research of TCM; innovate the form of review and strengthen the process management of ethical review; scientifically, objectively and impartially evaluate the scientific nature and social value of clinical research projects in TCM; pay attention to the toxic side effects of TCM, especially compound preparations. So as to further improve the procedural norms and quality of ethical review of clinical research of TCM, protect the legitimate rights and interests and safety of subjects, and promote the development of medicine in China.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical phenotype and genetic variant in a child with Verheij syndrome (VRJS). METHODS: A child who had presented at the Soochow University Affiliated Children's Hospital and Wujiang District Children's Hospital in July 2022 for "elevated scapula since early childhood" was selected as the study subject. Peripheral blood samples of the child and his parents were collected and subjected to whole exome sequencing. Candidate variant was verified by Sanger sequencing and bioinformatic analysis. RESULTS: The child had manifested elevated scapulae, torticollis, neck asymmetry, facial dysmorphism, dispersed café-au-lait spots, limited mobility of upper limbs and shoulder joints, and intellectual disability. Sequencing revealed that he has harbored a de novo heterozygous c.405dupT (p.Ile136Tyrfs*4) variant of the PUF60 gene. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), this variant was classified as pathogenic (PVS1+PS2_moderate+PM2_supporting). Combined his clinical features and result of genetic testing, the child was diagnosed with VRJS due to variant of the PUF60 gene. CONCLUSION The clinical manifestations of VRJS include facial dysmorphism, intellectual disability, elevated scapulae, vertebral fusion, other skeletal malformations, without significant abnormalities of the heart, kidney, and eyes, which need to be distinguished from Klippel-Feil syndrome. Above finding has expended the mutation spectrum of the PUF60 gene and provided a reference for delineation of the genotype-phenotype correlation of the VRJS.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors for lymph node metastasis and prognosis in stage T1 and T2 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after radical surgery and construct nomogram prediction models.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinico-pathological data of 672 patients with T1 and T2 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who were admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from January 2014 to December 2019 were collected. There were 464 males and 208 females, aged (65±8)years. All patients under-went radical esophagectomy+2 or 3 field lymph node dissection. Observation indicators: (1) lymph node dissection, metastasis and follow-up. (2) risk factors for lymph node metastasis of esophageal cancer after radical resection. (3) prognostic factors of esophageal cancer after radical resection. (4) construction and evaluation of the prediction models of lymph node metastasis and prognosis of esophageal cancer after radical resection. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination, telephone and internet consultations to detect survival of patients up to April 2021. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rate and draw survival curve. Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. Logistic regression model was used for univariate and multivariate analyses of risk for lymph node metastasis, and COX regression model was used for univariate and multivariate analyses of prognosis. Based on the results of multi-variate analysis, the nomogram prediction models for lymph node metastasis and prognosis predic-tion were constructed. The prediction discrimination of the nomogram models were evaluated using the area under curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). The calibration curve was used to evaluate the prediction consistency of the models. Results:(1) Lymph node dissection, metastasis and follow-up. The number of lymph node dissected was 14±8 and the number of lymph node metastasis was 2(range, 1?19) in 672 patients. Of the 672 patients, there were 182 cases had lymph node metastasis, including 58 cases in T1 stage and 124 cases in T2 stage. All 672 patients were followed up for 38 (range, 1?85)months. The average overall survival time of 672 patients was 65 months, with the 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rate as 89.0%, 74.3%, 66.0%, respectively. The average overall survival time of 325 patients in T1 stage and 347 patients in T2 stage were 70 months and 61 months. The 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rate of 325 patients in T1 stage and 347 patients in T2 stage were 95.0%, 83.5%, 73.4% and 87.4%, 69.9%, 59.2%, respectively, showing a significant difference in survival between them ( χ2=14.51, P<0.05). (2) Risk factors for lymph node metastasis of esophageal cancer after radical resection. Results of univariate analysis showed that tumor location, tumor histological grade, tumor T staging were related factors affecting lymph node metastasis of esophageal cancer after radical resection ( odds ratio=1.40, 1.54, 2.56, 95% confidence interval as 1.07?1.85, 1.20?1.99, 1.79-3.67, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that tumor location, tumor histological grade, tumor T staging were independent factors affecting lymph node metastasis ( odds ratio=1.42, 1.61, 2.63, 95% confidence interval as 1.07?1.89, 1.25?2.09, 1.82?3.78, P<0.05). (3) Prognostic factors of esophageal cancer after radical resection. Results of univariate analysis showed that preoperative comorbidities, postoperative complications, tumor histological grade (G3), tumor T staging, tumor N staging (N1 stage, N2 stage, N3 stage), tumor TNM staging (Ⅲ stage, Ⅳ stage) were related factors affecting prognosis of esophageal cancer after radical resection ( hazard ratio= 1.48, 1.64, 2.23, 1.85, 2.09, 4.48, 4.97, 3.54, 5.53, 95% confidence interval as 1.08?2.03, 1.20?2.23, 1.47?3.39, 1.34?2.54, 1.44?3.04, 2.89?6.95, 1.57?15.73, 2.48?5.05, 1.73?17.68, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that preoperative comorbidities, G3 of tumor histological grade, T2 stage of tumor T staging, N1 stage, N2 stage, N3 stage of tumor N staging were independent risk factors affecting prognosis of esophageal cancer after radical resection ( hazard ratio=1.57, 1.89, 1.63, 1.71, 3.72, 3.90, 95% confidence interval as 1.14?2.16, 1.23?2.91, 1.17?2.26, 1.16?2.51, 2.37?5.83, 1.22?12.45, P<0.05). (4) Construction and evaluation of the prediction models of lymph node metastasis and prognosis of esophageal cancer after radical resection. Based on the results of multivariate analysis, tumor location, tumor histological grade, tumor T staging were applied to construct a nomo-gram model for lymph node metastasis prediction of esophageal cancer after radical resection, the score of tumor location, tumor histological grade, tumor T staging were 82, 100, 100, respectively, and the sum of the scores corresponding to the lymph node metastasis rate. Preoperative comor-bidity, tumor histological grade, tumor T staging, tumor N staging were applied to construct a nomo-gram model for 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rate prediction of esophageal cancer after radical resection, the score of preoperative comorbidity, tumor histological grade, tumor T staging, tumor N staging were 23, 38, 27, 100, respectively, and the sum of the scores corres-ponding to the 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rate. Results of ROC showed that the AUC of nomogram model for lymph node metastasis prediction after radical esophagectomy was 0.66 (95% confidence interval as 0.62?0.71, P<0.05). The AUC of nomogram model for 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rate prediction after radical esophagectomy were 0.73, 0.74, 0.71 (95% confidence intervals as 0.66?0.80, 0.68?0.79, 0.65?0.78, P<0.05). Results of calibration curve showed that the predicted lymph node metastasis rate and the predicted 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rate by nomogram models were consistent with the actual lymph node metastasis rate and 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival rate. Conclusions:Tumor location, tumor histological grade, tumor T staging are independent factors affecting lymph node metastasis in T1 and T2 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after radical surgery and nomogram model constructed by these indicators can predict the lymph node metas-tasis rate. Preoperative comor-bidities, G3 of tumor histological grade, T2 stage of tumor T staging, N1 stage, N2 stage, N3 stage of tumor N staging are independent risk factors affecting prognosis and nomogram model constructed by these indicators can predict the overall survival rate of patients after surgery.

Objective:To discuss the feasibility of offering specialized courses of critical care medicine in undergraduate clinical medicine education, so as to alleviate the shortage of critical care medicine staffs and lay a foundation for improving the success rate for the treatment of critical cases.Methods:The undergraduates majoring in clinical medicine from 2008 to 2011 in Guizhou Medical University (the former Guiyang Medical College) were enrolled. After they had been enrolled in the undergraduate education for 3 years and were ready for Grade four, which meant basic medicine teaching had been completed and clinical medicine teaching was about to start, they were introduced and preached to each discipline, including critical care medicine. The undergraduates were free to choose professional direction of clinical training in Grade four. Students majoring in clinical medicine from 2012 to 2014 were free to choose their major direction when they entered the school.Results:From September 2011 to July 2019, the university had cultivated 246 undergraduates majoring in clinical critical care medicine from 2008 to 2014, and the critical care medicine professional team of affiliated hospital had undertaken 540 teaching hours. By July 2019, all students had graduated on time, with an employment rate of 100%. Forty students took postgraduate programs in our school and other schools, accounting for 16.3%.Conclusions:Professional education of critical care medicine in the undergraduate course of clinical medicine can mobilize students' interest in learning and subjective initiative, which is conducive to career selection. During the clinical training, the students can identify and timely cure critical care cases in the early stage, and partly alleviate the current shortage of critical care medical staffs.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic basis of three children with disorders of sex development (DSD) in association with rare Y chromosome rearrangements. METHODS: The three children, who all featured short stature and DSD, were subjected to G banding chromosomal karyotyping, multiplex PCR for Y chromosomal microdeletion, sequencing of the whole SRY gene, SNP-array analysis for genomic copy number variations, and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH).
