Objective:To develop a treatment-related quality of life scale for Chinese patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and to test its reliability and validity.Methods:The initial scale was constructed through a literature search, Delphi expert correspondence, and cognitive testing. This study conducted a preliminary survey of 379 patients with MM and a formal survey of 865 patients from the hematology departments of 155 hospitals nationwide from February 2024 to March 2024. The final scale was obtained after conducting item analysis and reliability and validity tests on the initial scale.Results:The constructed scale contains 36 items covering six domains: physiological, psychological, social, treatment side effects, general health, and others. In the preliminary survey, the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of each item ranged from 0.597 to 0.939, and the test-retest reliability was 0.747 ( P<0.001). Exploratory factor analysis extracted eight common factors with a cumulative variance contribution of 60.058%. In the formal survey, the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of each item ranged from 0.484 to 0.930, and the test-retest reliability was 0.835 ( P<0.001). Confirmatory factor analysis revealed a comparative fit index of 0.750, a root-mean-square error of approximation of 0.090, and a root-mean-square residual of 0.067. Conclusion:The treatment-related quality of life scale for Chinese patients with MM designed in this study exhibited good reliability and validity, reflecting the impact of treatment on the quality of life of patients. This scale can provide a reference to clinicians for assessing the disease status of patients.

Objective : To investigate the protective effect of dimethyl fumarate(DMF) on maternal intrahepatic cholestasis(ICP) during pregnancy induced by di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate(DEHP) exposure and its mechanism. Methods : Thirty-two 8-week-old female institute of cancer research(ICR) mice were randomly divided into 4 groups: Ctrl group, DEHP group, DMF group and DEHP+DMF group. DEHP and DEHP+DMF groups were treated with DEHP(200 mg/kg) by gavage every morning at 9:00 a.m. DMF and DEHP+DMF groups were treated with DMF(150 mg/kg) from day 13 to day 16 of gestation by gavage. After completion of gavage on day 16 of pregnancy, maternal blood, maternal liver, placenta, and amniotic fluid were collected from pregnant mice after a six-hour abrosia. The body weight of the mother rats and the body weight of the fetus rats were sorted and analyzed; the levels of total bile acid(TBA), alkaline phosphatase(ALP), aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase(AST/ALT) in serum and TBA in liver, amniotic fluid and placenta were detected by biochemical analyzer; HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of liver tissue; Quantitative reverse transcription PCR(RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin(IL)-6, IL-1, IL-18 and NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3(NLRP3) in the liver; Western blot was used to detect the expression of the nuclear factor KappaB(NF-κB) and NLRP3. Results : Compared with the control group, the body weight of the DEHP-treated dams and pups decreased(P<0.05); the levels of TBA, ALP, AST/ALT in the serum of dams and the levels of TBA in the liver, amniotic fluid, and placenta of dams increased(P<0.05); the histopathological results showed that liver tissue was damaged, bile ducts were deformed, and there was inflammatory cell infiltration around them; the levels of inflammation-related factors TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1, IL-18 and NLRP3 transcription in maternal liver increased(P<0.05); the expression of NF-κB and NLRP3 protein in maternal liver significantly increased( P<0. 05). Compared with the DEHP group,the body weight of both dams and fetuses significantly increased in DEHP + DMF group( P<0. 05); the levels of TBA,ALP,AST/ALT in the serum of dams and amniotic fluid of fetuses decreased( P<0. 05); the degree of liver lesions was improved; the transcription levels of inflammation-related factors TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1,IL-18 and NLRP3 in maternal liver decreased( P<0. 05); the expression of NF-κB and NLRP3 protein in maternal liver significantly decreased( P<0. 05). Conclusion DMF can effectively protect the DEHP exposure to lead to female ICP,and its mechanism may be through inhibiting the NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway and reducing liver inflammation.

Objective : To establish a method for measuring major organic acids in the tricarboxylic acid cycle using a high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS) system, and to investigate the changes in six tricarboxylic acid cycle organic acids(fumaric acid, malic acid, succinic acid, α-ketoglutaric acid, cis-aconitic acid, and citric acid) in the serum, liver, and placenta of mice exposed to di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate(DEHP) during pregnancy. Methods : The serum, liver and placental samples from pregnant mice were processed and eluted through a Waters ACQUITY UPLC BEH Amide Column(130 Å, 1.7 μm, 2.1 mm × 150 mm) using a gradient elution program. Mobile phase A comprised an aqueous solution of 10 mmol/L ammonium acetate and 5 μmol/L methanephosphonic acid, while mobile phase B consisted of a 90% acetonitrile aqueous solution containing 10 mmol/L ammonium acetate and 5 μmol/L methanephosphonic acid, with a flow rate maintained at 0.35 ml/min. The mass spectrometry detection system utilized an electrospray ionization technique with negative ion mode for multiple reaction monitoring. Results : The correlation coefficients of the standard curves for the six tricarboxylic acid cycle organic acid metabolites were all above 0.996 within the quantitative range. The method's accuracy ranged from 97.14% to 108.26%, with inter-day and intra-day precision relative standard deviation between 1.35% and 6.73%. The matrix effect was between 93.29% and 107.47%, and the extraction recovery rate ranged from 94.82% to 112.57%. Analysis of six tricarboxylic acid cycle organic acids in the liver, serum, and placenta of DEHP-exposed mice during pregnancy showed significant reductions in fumaric acid, malic acid, α-ketoglutaric acid, cis-aconitic acid, and citric acid compared to the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion The HPLC-MS/MS method established in this study for detecting six tricarboxylic acid cycle organic acids in the serum, liver, and placenta of DEHP-exposed pregnant mice is stable, highly sensitive and selective. Prenatal DEHP exposure induced alterations in the levels of tricarboxylic acid(TCA) cycle organic acid metabolites in the liver, serum, and placenta of mice, suggesting that DEHP exposure during pregnancy may interfere with mitochondrial TCA cycle processes. These findings indicate potential value in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases associated with prenatal DEHP exposure.

Objective To assess the clinical feasibility of a self-developed augmented reality(AR)system in surgeries for cerebral arteriovenous malformation(AVM),dural arteriovenous fistula(DAVF),moyamoya,and internal carotid artery stenosis.This system integrates preoperative vascular imaging(CTA,MRA,DSA)with intraoperative real-time visualization through high-precision patient-image registration and virtual-real integration technology.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 6 patients(1 cerebral AVM,1 DAVF,3 moyamoya and 1 internal carotid artery stenosis)collected between March 2023 and April 2024.AR with three-dimensional reconstruction was used for preoperative precise localization and intraoperative navigation guidance.Clinical feasibility was evaluated and analyzed using an intraoperative self-controlled method.Results All 6 patients with diverse etiologies successfully underwent preoperative precise localization and intraoperative navigation guidance under AR three-dimensional reconstruction modeling.This technology achieved visualization of intracranial arteriovenous structures and precise lesion locations,providing surgeons with a visual reference for accurate planning of the surgical approach and operative field.Conclusion The application of AR with three-dimensional reconstruction is safe and feasible in neurosurgical procedures for cerebrovascular diseases.It demonstrates satisfactory effectiveness in preoperative localization and intraoperative navigation guidance.
